Chapter 99: The Warrior's Defeat

【Warning! Warn! 】

[Batman No. 52, your danger level has increased]

[You have been promoted from Rank No to Rank F]

The silvery-white font of the Alfred Protocol stalled on Chen's retina, and the great tingling sensation that ran through his brain disappeared, replaced by a clear one.

"It can't be."

Bane was a little numb.

He didn't know how many times he had uttered the word, maybe dozens, maybe hundreds.

But do you know what's different from the past?

He has no hole cards left.

One-trick pony.

"In any case, you can't go unscathed in such a close nuclear bomb," he said. ”

Frustration.

Intense frustration. Bane looked at the dragon that finally appeared in front of him.

All of Batman's physical features were different from what he had seen before, but there was only one thing that never changed.

Eye.

Those indifferent eyes, eyes looking down from above.

The contemptuous eyes, the smile hidden deep in them, forever mocked his powerless struggle.

He said, "I have calculated that even a nanometer will ......."

"It's going to hurt badly, right?"

Chen Tao replied to him. His voice became even more muffled and deafening after transforming into a dinosaur: "Actually, I'm curious about one thing. ”

"Look at what you're all about, Bane. Amber gold, Titan venom, the green of all things, the black of decay. ”

"You borrowed my power."

Bane didn't need to say anything to him, and immediately said suddenly, "Venom? ”

But he then continued:

"But even that doesn't ......"

"Super double venom," Chen Tao said, "that subordinate of yours, nicknamed 'Zombie', was captured by me, remember?" ”

"So what, you're just ......"

"I took him under control with the Mad Hatter's chip and provided him with state-of-the-art laboratories and instruments. The medicine made in that place is much higher in purity and mild than what you would make in a small workshop. ”

Bane was momentarily speechless.

He thought that something like "I have more willpower", "I got over Venom", "Venom makes me stronger", maybe it would make him feel better.

Venom is indeed affected by purity, and although a high-purity venom will greatly test the user's body, it will undoubtedly bring greater power.

"That's all you have to ......"

"And Amber."

Chen Tao said: "There is also the water of the Lhasa Road Pool. ”

"And the protective clothing that has been prepared in advance," Chen Tao explained, "is not so much protective clothing as protective armor." It cost at least $2 billion, about the same as one of the most expensive fighter jets. ”

Chen Tao added inwardly:

and the body of an undead clawed bat zombie......

"And Dr. Phosphorus."

Bane turned his head and saw that Dr. Phosphorus was indeed missing from the Arkham people.

Chen Tao explains:

"Like the Atomic Skeleton, Dr. Phosphorus is a superhuman capable of absorbing the energy of a nuclear bomb explosion. His strength also comes from nuclear energy, and although he himself is not very strong, he is like a large rechargeable battery. ”

Bane knew he had missed the other party.

"But I had defeated him on the way to him, like so many Arkham......"

"Mr. Bone Frame is just a tool man, we just need him to be able to absorb energy, it doesn't matter what kind of beating him is. He is just one of many tools. ”

"Do you need me to tell you in detail how much I prepared for this?"

Bane stopped talking, because he didn't need to know how Batman escaped, because it was all already happening, and it didn't help the situation at hand.

But he couldn't help but ask, he knew very well that this was a frustrated feeling of loss.

He dissected his mind with great clarity, but he had no control.

He knew he couldn't let that emotion take his hands anymore.

"So, is it the last now?"

He asked, "Is this the final battle?" ”

"Absolutely." Chen Tao replied to him: "Do you have any other hole cards?" ”

Bane was silent.

Of course not.

Failed.

Pushed to the edge by Batman, everything came to naught, surrounded by people with bats, and the bats became stronger.

The odds are slim.

Bane closed his eyes, then opened them.

But...... I'm still here.

There was a tsunami rushing in his eyes.

Bane is still there!

"You think you've won?"

Bane's gaze twinkled like stars in the dark night.

Those failures didn't knock him downβ€”

I know who I am.

"You think I'm going to lose?"

I am Bane, I am a warrior of justice, and I will defeat the dragon.

I know that the only one in this world who can break me is him.

"Ahh

But you raised your fist and prepared for a fierce fight.

You roar, the long-simmering anger firing off with your cool head.

The inky green gives half of your body a lush green.

More green leaves grow from the lignified muscles and spread all the way to the top of your head.

You yell.

In the bright moonlight, the warrior single-handedly rushed towards the evil dragon.

But - in vain.

You can't beat him.

Again, you have reviewed all the available paths, and all the available paths point to the same end, which is your end.

Menacing.

You punch the giant dinosaur in the face.

But before the fist touched the skin, the huge dragon face collapsed into a black mist that surged around the fist.

Then the next second, your chest is caressed by a sharp blade.

Crunch squeak –

It's like a saw sawing iron blades, and the sound is sore.

"It's useless!" You roar, "You don't have anything to do with meβ€”"

Before you finished speaking, your whole body was entangled in countless black sands.

Then you see countless car parts metal mixed with the green muscle tissue of the dinosaur, and mixed with many miscellaneous venom input tubes, condensing in front of you into a terrifying fist.

And then the next moment.

The world is shaken, and blood fills your lips and nostrils.

One of your ribs folds back into your lungs, and you breathe in vain.

The edges of your vision begin to distort, then blur and dim.

You fight back, you always fight back.

But everything is the same end, the darkness is coming at you, the breath stops, and the world becomes dark.

You fall to the ground.

You see the black blade glide across your chest again, with a tooth-aching sound gnawing at wood like cutting steel.

The aftermath poured over the nearby Arkham Asylum ward, splitting the massive floor in two, then collapsing with a loud bang, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Your consciousness is blurred.

You hear the illusory song:

"Through me, you will enter the city of sorrow...... Through me, you will step into endless suffering......"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Before me, everything was invisible......"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ O comer, let all hope be abandoned! ”

So you fell to the ground and scattered yourself in the darkness of this wilderness.

You feel a little warm and relieved.

(Note: The poem Bane heard was from Dante's Divine Comedy.)

yes, I'm finally done.
