Chapter 375: Tim is retired, and Batman is still working overtime (the author-kun is also at work QwQ)

When Batman was gone, Alfred turned his head and whispered to the dark corner of the Batcave, "Tim, Tim?" Why didn't you come out in the end? Didn't you say you were going to ask Batman to allow you to get back on the front lines of the battle in person? ”

The old butler whispered, "Didn't you say that you want to take the place of Dick (Nightwing), who went to the errand, and temporarily take care of Gotham?" ”

With the call of the old butler, the third generation of Robin Tim Drake slowly turned out from behind the stairs with a somewhat complicated face, as Robin, he perfectly inherited the fine tradition of the sudden appearance of the bat family, if it wasn't for Alfred taking the initiative to speak, no one would have thought that there was actually a big living person squatting in the shadows, especially when he was wearing the red and green, brightly colored Robin uniform.

But Tim knew that Batman must have seen through his position...... When the other party left the bat cave, they were waiting for him to come out, but he didn't move, but let the other party leave.

Faced with the old butler's questioning, Tim, with some surprise, walked to the side of the Batman, and then sat down in Batman's chair.

"It's nothing Alfred, I just suddenly feel that there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with Batman's arrangement."

"Killer Crocodile is also an old man who has been in Gotham for many years, although he used to do a lot of messy things when his head was not clear, but these have all gone away with the government's amnesty. Now that Batman has sent him back to Gotham to deal with the usual criminals and gangsters, and with the two of Freeze and Penguin taking the initiative to maintain the balance of Gotham, I think unless the Joker or the Riddler comes back, the Killer Crocodile will be up to the task. ”

"How's Harvey (Two-Face)?" The old butler asked casually.

"Admitted to a psychiatric hospital again, he's the most divided of them all. After a long period of Gotham not being as chaotic as it used to be, Harvey's kind personality seems to be revival. Although he still has the option to slap himself all the time, he is not as crazy as he used to be. ”

Even in his spare time, Tim's understanding of Gotham is far deeper than that of Ah Fu, who has been staying in the Batcave, and Robin, who has the strongest detective skills, has an unusually careful mind in many things.

"So for the killer crocodile......"

"Batman was right to assign me to Killer Crocodile as an advisor." Tim said with some sullenness: "Although I admit that the killer crocodile has begun to have a little brain, I still think that brain is the difference between a third-level intellectual disability and a first-degree intellectual disability. ”

Alfred originally wanted to say that the killer crocodile used to be a beast that could not communicate, and now he is at least an adult with a normal IQ, but soon it occurred to Tim's mind that the killer crocodile was no different from the past in front of him, so he kept silent.

But he still has a doubt in his mind, for a long time, Tim has been making a fuss about wanting to start his Robin career again, while Batman has been busy with other things, even after a few meetings, he flatly refuses and asks him to go back to studying.

But Tim remained. tirelessly begged Batman, and even was caught by Dick on a few occasions sneaking out on the streets, and even Alfred stopped him from disobeying Batman's orders to go out on the streets to fight criminals several times.

This time Batman is in front of him, why didn't Tim just stop and try to fight the killer crocodile?

Tim could barely guess what the old butler was thinking without looking at Alfred's expression, and he was grateful that the old butler didn't just ask so straightly, but left some space for each other. Alfred has his own sense of distance, he is not the kind of strong controlling elder who has to break the casserole and ask the end no matter what the juniors do.

Tim didn't take the initiative to mention it, and Alfred kept silent. But Tim thought about it and took the initiative to say:

"Alfred, you should know how I became Robin."

"To get Bruce out of Jason's affair." Alfred said, "You're really good, Tim, and you've deduced the identities of Batman and Nightwing just by that movement of Dick. ”

"Batman needs a Robin. Because Batman has been exposed to those dirty and dark things, he is a mortal after all, although he pretends to call himself a god. He will be tired, he will despair, no matter how unbeatable he may seem, but we all know that it is just an illusion for outsiders. ”

"That's why I became Robin," Tim said. I was determined to be the rope that tied Batman to prevent him from falling into the abyss, I never denied that I was Jason's replacement, and Batman also needed such a replacement, Batman always had a self-destructive trait in his body, so he needed Robin, he needed me. ”

Tim's gaze was long:

"I still remember what Batman used to say to me......"

"'You're different from Dick who firmly believes he's chosen the right path in life...... Dick sees Robin as the meaning of his life, so when he finds another meaning, he will give up Robin's identity without hesitation;

But for Jason, he saw Robin as a game, which is probably the cause of his death. Being Robin was never Jason's first choice, but rather the direction in which he imitated others.

And you, too, see being Robin as a job that requires a mask. From that point of view, you and Jason are similar to each other to a certain extent. Of course, you will never admit that.

I never thought that death would actually come until the moment Jason died, and that's the problem that comes with teaming up with adults and using your life to believe that you are fearless with a companion.

Until you feel careless, feel safe, and the truth is that once you make a small mistake, you will never be at peace. ’”

"I took Batman's warning. I've always been careful about this job. I used to ...... I used to think that Batman would always need me to keep him on a leash and prevent him from self-destructing. ”

"But now ......"

Tim smiled reluctantly:

"Batman really doesn't seem to have any intention of self-destructing anymore. So what is the meaning of my existence...... It seems to be gone. ”

"Maybe it's really time for me to retire," he said. ”

……

……

……

"Batman has no intention of saving OA, Lord Sinisto."

Below, countless Yellow Lantern Men were attacking the OA Star more than once, and this was the twelfth charge organized by the Yellow Lantern Legion in the past few days. The protection of Oa Star is slowly being eaten away by them, and it is only a matter of time before it is completely breached.

At this time, Senisto was listening to the report of one of his men, but there was no one around, and the voice came from his ring.

"Well done, Discouris." Senisto said.

He called each other's names.

Despotellis is one of the many Yellow Lantern Men he recruits in the universe, and quite possibly the deadliest one, as he is a virus, a living virus.

Born on the planet Khondra in the 119th sector of the universe, scientists here wanted to develop a new type of virus as a biological weapon, and they continued to iterate on the virus, and the final super virus Despotellis had feelings of its own. It began to go on a killing spree on the planet Khondra, killing the entire planet's inhabitants. For this, a yellow light selects it.

"Are you sure Batman didn't spot you?" "His nanobots are able to enter the microscopic realm, and I ask you to make sure that you are completely undetected by his robots." ”

"Of course, Lord Senisto." Super Virus Lantern Man replied respectfully:

"Han Nu's body is huge, big enough for me to hide. When it comes to understanding the structure of living things, neither he nor Batman knows better. They didn't notice me lurking in his body at all, and I never spread my virus to anyone to prevent anything from slipping up, nor did I do anything superfluous other than surveillance. ”

"Batman does think that saving the OA star looks like a trap to turn the tiger away from the mountain, and the two previous transfers to the OA star really scared Batman and made him worry about whether we are doing the same trick again."

Super Virus said: "He fell into the paradox of turning the tiger away from the mountain, and he didn't dare to leave the earth at all. ”

"It bought us time."

Senisto lowered his head and saw that on the battlefield below, Mongo had broken the neck of a Green Lantern who had lunged at him, as easily as if he had broken a stalk. Hardly any Green Lantern is Mongo's one-on-one enemy.

Beside him, Super Girl Kara's eyes spewed red light, and the red light energy like a blood-colored flame burst out from her body, and she actually wore a yellow light ring on her left hand, and the red and yellow colors alternately produced on her body, making the super girl's brain tremble.

The little girl jumped up irrationally, then pounced on an unlucky Lantern Man and gnawed on it, biting the other Green Lantern like a madwoman.

Mongo's power is a little too strong, and he has co-opted a large number of Yellow Lantern Men and has created a small hill within the Senisto Legion.

Senisto looked at each other, the murderous intent in his eyes flickering. When Mongo saw him, the murderous intent and malice in his eyes were very clear to Senisto. That's why he kept Amunsu at the door of his wife's prison to protect him.

In this kind of thing, he even dares to trust only people who are related by blood.

Although Senisto was well aware that he could easily defeat every Yellow Lantern by controlling the opponent's Yellow Lantern Ring, that control had to be face-to-face. He never wanted something to happen that he would regret for the rest of his life, and he never wanted Arlensu to be a threat to him.

He still needs Mungo's force now, and as for the rest of the matter...... More on that later.

Not far away, the fanged Archilo is the third person to perform brilliantly. He was an instructor of the Yellow Lantern Regiment and grew up in the most dangerous jungles of the planet Cristyl.

He is extremely strong and uses his power to rule over the weaker races on the planet and feed on them.

Archilo was one of the first members of the Senistto Legion, and in a way, he was a trumpet-sized Mungo, believing in the law of the jungle and always wanting to take the next step.

Senisto knew that the other party was also not a fuel-efficient lamp, and if it weren't for Mongo's more danger, it would be Archilo who was trying to usurp the throne now.

It's all a bunch of anti-bones...... But Senisto knew that this was the price of appointing criminals, and that he had no chance of recruiting some good men with clean backgrounds, so he had to do so.

When he has the opportunity, he must clean the inside of the Senisto Legion, in Senisto's hope, his Yellow Lantern Legion is the police who need to replace the Green Lantern Legion to maintain order in the universe, and the police obviously cannot be the villains he is currently recruiting.

Therefore, for Senisto, these people who are fighting below are just cannon fodder that can be consumed and replenished at any time, without any value, while Mungo and Archiro are enemies that need to be targeted at any time, and when the Senisto Legion that truly maintains the order of the universe is born, they are all the objects to be liquidated.

But I still need some time, some more time......

Senisto thought.

As long as I trick Batman into not daring to act on Earth, I will be in time......

Senisto shook his head slightly while he was distracted, he was a pity after all.

In fact, for Senisto, Batman really listened to Han Nu's words, and really went to save those Green Lanterns who were trapped in Covard, but they were more beneficial to him.

He set a trap there, banishing the entire attacking Green Lantern Legion to the Phantom Zone, where the Kryptonians once banished criminals, and where there was almost no return.

As long as Batman is banished there, at least for a long time, he won't have to worry about the other party interfering with what he does.

But it's a pity that Batman didn't fall for it, which was also expected by Seniste, or rather, if Batman really broke into his trap so recklessly, he would be surprised.

But now, even though Batman didn't really stupidly step in, Senito's purpose of stalling time has also been achieved.

As long as he has enough time......

……

……

……

"Bain ......"

Earth.

"We're going to go to the Crime Syndicate, about the Corrupt Black ......"

Bane heard Batman's voice, "You're a true expert when it comes to the Decaying Black. I need your help again. ”

"We're going to leave Earth, and this time it's complicated, and we can't make even the slightest mistake."

……

……

……

War fortress in Senisto.

Mongo looked at the black black energy in front of him, his eyes flashing with malice......

"I'm going to have...... New power! ”
