Batman meets Nemesis.

The entire dark world of Gotham shook by this news. No one likes a nosy messenger of justice, the dark world doesn't, and the officials don't like it either.

But no one knows more about Batman, and they can't find the righteous knight hiding in the darkness and eliminate him.

The other party's strength is strong enough, and the equipment is well-equipped enough, since he appeared in Gotham, the underground world of Gotham needs to pray in advance when doing things, praying that he will not be unlucky to encounter the black shadow that is unscrupulous in the night.

There is no gang that has never tasted Batman's iron fist, from the gang boss to the bottom brother, Batman treats everyone equally.

In terms of style, Batman generally likes to deal with bosses.

Many bigwigs were thrown at the door of the police station by Batman after they were unable to resist.

In fact, those leaders don't care whether they go to prison or not, anyway, they have money and some interests, and even if they do, they can be easily acquitted. In turn, it can bite Batman.

But this kind of humiliating behavior of being tied up and thrown at the door of the police station can easily make them die in the circle.

The only gratifying thing is that Batman is very powerful enough to make many bigwigs in the dark world experience this kind of social death.

When you are not the only one who loses face, the so-called social death will naturally be reduced a lot. At the same time, they also formed an alliance against Batman. As long as you fight Batman, we may not be friends, but I will definitely give you a little help.

But some bigwigs have already entered the palace for the second time, and Batman is still active, still a sword of Damocles hanging over everyone's heads.

Some people in the dark world and the upper echelons hate Batman to death, but there is still nothing they can do about him.

Just when most of the gangs had to accept the existence of Batman and encountered a moment when they could only consider themselves unlucky, the news of Batman's failure and injury suddenly came, which was beyond their imagination.

Many bigwigs doubted the authenticity of the news for the first time. But after an hour-and-a-half-long video went viral, the whole dark world was agitated.

The scarecrow and his team, who single-handedly concocted Batman's failed drama, also instantly became Gotham's popular fried chicken.

Many people want to defect to the scarecrow, and many bigwigs in the dark world have also extended an olive branch to him for cooperation and solicitation.

All in all, the fame and status of the scarecrow climbed rapidly at an unbelievable speed by stepping on Batman.

After a period of complete silence for Batman, after no hapless ghost was thrown at the door of the police station, the people of the dark world began to celebrate like prisoners of the wind.

Gotham is once again back to the excitement and chaos that preceded Batman's appearance. Even as if to vent, this kind of excitement and chaos has become more intense than before.

Gunshots, fire, chaos, fear.

Re-emerge in the city in the open. The scarecrow almost cheered at this unexpected scene, and his power grew stronger as he absorbed more energy from the chaos of fear.

What's even more gratifying is that with his sudden increase in status, he can easily gather the materials he needs. He co-opted some collaborators and began to implement his own plan of fear!

Start by making an instrument that collects energy.

Then use the upcycled Fear Elixir to plunge the entire city into regular fear. When the time comes, he will become the king of the darkness and the unique master of the city!

He sows fear, reaps fear, and enjoys fear.

……

Wayne Manor.

A sturdy man rang the doorbell.

"You are?" Alfred Pennyworth, the Wayne family's butler, an elegant old man with gray hair, was staring cautiously at the arrival. "I don't remember my lord having a friend like you."

"I may not have met Mr. Bruce Wayne, but I had a friendly exchange with Batman." Someone said softly.

Alfred's face was as usual, "This gentleman, I don't want to listen to your nonsense, if you don't explain your intentions and prove your identity, then I can only ask you to leave." ”

"Batman is Mr. Wayne, isn't he? Don't be nervous, I have no ill intentions, I'm here to help him. The man said gently.

"I don't know what you're talking about, the joke isn't funny at all. I think sir, you have to leave. Alfred shook his head and made a gesture of send-off.

"Is that really good? I know what he's going through right now, and what's going on with him has something to do with me in a way. Please don't doubt me, I'm really here to help. At the very least, let me meet Mr. Wayne, or let him make his own decisions, okay? The tone of the visitor remained firm.

Alfred's eyes flickered, he didn't feel the malice in the man opposite, but he could sense that the other party was sincere and trustworthy. It's a strange feeling, you know, although he is not as extreme as Bruce Wayne, but he, like his grandfather, is still stingy with his trust.

"What's your name?" Alfred asked.

"Steve Rogers. The person he stared at for a long time. A bright smile appeared on the visitor's face and his name was announced.

……

"Something has been wrong with his mood lately, it's like he's going back to a certain time in the past. Weak and helpless. Alfred turned back, with a friendly smile on his face, and whispered to Rogers about Bruce's current state on the way to his master on the way to his master.

Rogers, as a listener, didn't wait until he met Bruce Wayne that he seemed to be sure of something and sighed.

"Can I talk to him alone? Don't worry, I can solve his problems, but we'll have to have a good talk. Rogers looked at the old butler beside him and asked aloud.

The old housekeeper first glanced at his silent old man, and after getting the other party's eyes, he took two steps back, retreated to the door, and replied with his hand on the doorknob: "Of course." ”

After saying that, he didn't forget to close the door when he left the room.

"The energy of fear." Rogers sat down in the seat across from Wayne. At this moment, Wayne looked very bad, wearing pajamas, his face was strongly tired, his spirit was sluggish, and his face was withered, but the other party's eyes and expressions were still calm and calm. It's like the waves in the depths of the sea, but the surface of the sea remains calm and waveless.

"You know?" Bruce's eyes moved, and the whole person was a little lively.

"I'm sorry, but this should be the result of my arrival." Rogers said apologetically. He raised his right hand, and the ring on the index finger of his right hand suddenly shone with a faint light, and then a stream of golden energy, like the light from the lamp tube, shone on the opposite side of Bruce Wayne.

Wayne's expression was stunned at first, and when his body subconsciously wanted to dodge, because of the tiredness of his body and the abruptness of the light, he was directly enveloped by the light overflowing from the ring.

An uplifting energy, suddenly accompanied by light, poured into his body, soothing and relieving his spirit and emotions that had been tortured for a long time.

"He's like you, his light is overflowing, and there's no way to hide from it. It will stir up the most fearful things in your heart and expand it. In that emotion called fear, I was completely ineffective. It turned me into a coward. If I hadn't run away, maybe I'd be on my knees shivering. Wayne's voice was hoarse and dry, but his eyes were still bright, and he looked at Rogers who was sitting across from him.

"The power of the mind, or emotional energy. It is an energy that is closely related to life, and the creator is a friend of my universe. The greater the amount of this energy accumulates, the more incredible power it has. Rogers knew exactly what Wayne wanted to know, and he didn't bother to hide it: "At the same time, this power user and lifeform also have a strong corrosive contagion. If you want to master them, you must have a strong and indomitable will, otherwise you will be influenced and assimilated by them, and become a slave to the emotions to which you belong. ”

"How can I destroy it?" Wayne asked coldly.

"Can't be wiped out." Rogers was helpless. In the words of its creator, it is indestructible from birth. Even if you destroy all living beings, it will only limit its growth for a short time. But it will eventually be resurrected with the reincarnation of life and the universe. The world has not yet grown to that extent, but it has seen your world, the life of this planet, as a breeding ground for nourishment. Can you wipe out all life on this planet? Can you destroy this planet? ”

"You released it?"

"I didn't want to release it. But it is clear that it has its own logic of operation. I am only a user of a part of it, not a creator of the rules for it. I don't know how it changes in another universe. Just like any other life, in a strange place, it wants to save itself and reproduce. I'm sorry that I became the seed of the beginning. Rogers looked apologetic.

"Your world, don't you have a way to restrain it?" Wayne frowned, he was willing to trust someone easily, but there was always a power in the other party that made him believe. He believes that this is also a kind of use and influence of emotional energy, and even if he has strong suspicions, he still can't resist this subtle infection. He could only keep his composure and prevent his infection from worsening, and in a short period of time he gave Rogers the same trust as his old butler Afu.

"There's a way of using filtration, and its creators create filters that strip this energy of the emotional toxins inside and purify it. Purified energy is only an almighty energy, which is not too corrosive to the human spirit and consciousness. Of course, relatively speaking, the quality of it after purification will be greatly reduced. Rogers explained.

"What about this ......filter," Wayne said, and when he saw an embarrassed smile on Rogers' face, he suddenly closed his mouth in understanding.

Rogers rubbed his hands in embarrassment: "This is a technique that only its creator has mastered." This technique he has only authorized to share with a group of mages. I'm not a researcher, and I never thought I'd face this situation one day. ”

"I see." Wayne nodded understandingly. "What's the deal with the scarecrow? Why was he able to use this power? Could it be that its creator didn't put a lock or anything on it, and let anyone use it? ”

"This, as far as I know, has a lock. With us, it is necessary to be authorized, that is, to be bound to the person who has this ring to use this energy. Rogers raised his right hand with the ring, thought for a moment and guessed, "But it may be another world, and after losing control of the data dimension, its rule priorities have changed.

As for the scarecrow who can use the power of fear, it should be regarded as a carrier of symbiosis by the power of fear. According to its creator, energy automatically pursues nearby psychic fluctuations that are most compatible with it, just as a child would look for his favorite toy. ”

"That is, there will be a second, a third, or even more scarecrows, right?" Wayne's tone was low.

"I don't want to hit you or deceive you, and I can't do that. If nothing else, things could be worse than you think. The atmosphere of the city is too suitable for the birth of some negative emotions, and these negative emotions are so contagious that they will intertwine and combine to form a huge energy source that collects all negative emotions.

They favor people who fit their frequency fluctuations, and these people are, if nothing else, wicked and criminals. Under the influence of negative emotions, they tend to become worse and more stubborn and difficult to reverse. Can you imagine how bad that situation is? ”

"You've caused a huge problem to the world." Even with Wayne's mental tenacity, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth when he thought of that terrible picture.

"Isn't there a solution?" Wayne asked.

"That may have to be solved by its creators. If you ask me, my advice is to do everything in our power to turn the tide of the city before it spreads and becomes a complete entity. It is much less difficult to transform it into a city with a lot of positive emotions than it is to eliminate this energy. You'd better make a plan, and it's okay to be aggressive. I don't know how much time I have left for you.

Finally, there's bad news I have to tell you. Rogers hesitated.

"What could be worse than the news you say?" Wayne raised an eyebrow.

"I think for you personally, there are still some." Rogers shrugged, "Don't you wonder how I found out who you are?" That's right, that's what you think, the ring brought me to you. It remembers your emotional frequency. In the same way, if I can do this, I can't guarantee that others can't do it, but if they work a little deeper, it's not hard to develop. You know who I'm talking about. ”
