What bad thoughts can Batman have?

Chapter 343 The Spirit of God’s Wrath

Amanda Waller stood in her office with her hands behind her hands. The strange thing was that Berelfe Prison... was obviously supposed to be Amanda Waller's own nest.

She was supposed to run this place with impregnable strength, but no matter whether it was the invasion of Maxwell Lord or the escape of Leopard Girl, Black Manta and others, Amanda Waller herself never showed up, or even took out the money she borrowed from the government. As a counterattack, one hole card after another was stored in the name.

From the beginning to the end, only her katana appeared, and once tried to stop Maxi Velod, but was unfortunately defeated by Rostam, who was armed with a flaming blade.

And if someone asks the other person after he wakes up, he can easily know that Katana's actions to protect the prison were entirely due to private actions, not Amanda Waller's orders.

This is impossible.

The leader of a large spy group usually loses control of the entire organization only if he dies.

However, Amanda Waller was alive and well at this time, jumping happily and full of energy. This situation was very strange, very strange.

What's even more weird is the state of Amanda Waller's office at the moment: the entire window of the house is shrouded in a dark purple translucent shield, and a huge flower is placed in the corner of the room. Producing oxygen for this almost completely sealed room.

"You're here." Amanda Waller looked out the window covered with a purple film and said, "I thought you would come earlier."

She turned her head and said, "You're slacking off."

"……I'm very sorry."

A voice suddenly came from the shadow in the backlight of the room, and then Amanda Waller saw the shadow begin to squirm and deform as if it were alive.

It spread over the table legs, flowed onto the chair like a fluid, and then reshaped into a human shape...

It's none other than Batman.

Huh? Shouldn't Batman be chasing Cheetah at this time and then solving the problem of his son Damian?

How could he appear here?

Amanda Waller pulled up a chair and sat across from Batman with her fat ass.

She saw Batman's eyes narrow, then he stretched out a finger and tapped it on the table.

"Aren't you going to explain it? Waller."

Amanda Waller's face was expressionless. No matter how many times you watch it, when this top agent with the appearance of an aunt shows a serious expression, you will always feel an unreal feeling of confusion.

"Maxwell Lord thought his telepathic powers were unparalleled."

Amanda Waller has already written the manuscript. To elevate your enemies is to elevate yourself.

"And that's exactly what he's capable of," Batman said.

"His ability is very special." Amanda Waller said slowly:

"His ability is not like that of many telepaths we have seen. Brain Demon, Mind Pirate, Blake, Dr. Neuro, Brainiac... Although their telepathic abilities are powerful, they directly control others. Physically. They overlay the victim's mind with their will, manipulating them like a puppet."

"But Maxwell Lauder is different. His telepathic ability is more like a super persuasion. He can make people involuntarily agree with his ideas. He pretends to be the victim's friend and thinks of the victim wholeheartedly. This kind of control is more powerful and terrifying than simple and crude mental manipulation."

Amanda Waller sighed: "So..."

"So...?" She heard a slight question from Batman opposite her. As an agent, her instinct allowed her to keenly detect the annoyance hidden under the calm question.

Amanda Waller lowered her head. She tried her best to sound helpless: "So I never thought that a person with mind control ability like him could also be controlled by others."

"I don't think it's Lauder who is controlled by a person with telepathy." Batman interrupted her coldly: "Maxwell Lauder is already a character in the first echelon of people with telepathy who has telepathy. Telepaths can affect his mind without him realizing it. There is only one possibility: the person who exerts the influence on Loud is not a human being."

He paused and then said:

"Actually, there was a fallacy in my previous suspicions, which is why I showed up here a little later.

Due to previous intelligence, I wrongly guessed that the person who influenced Maxivir Lord's mind was Starro, the Conqueror of Space Starfish.

Although the cosmic starfish's mental control ability is a typical type of turning others into puppets, in terms of the strength and quantity of mental power, he still far surpasses Maxwell Lord. I once thought Starro used something The method sneaked into Lauder, causing him to lose in the spiritual world and lead to being tricked by life and death, but I didn't expect..."

"But I didn't expect it to be me. I'm sorry, Batman."

Amanda Waller said: "Everything originated from an object collected by the Sky Eye Bureau: the Heart of Darkness, which is the same as the God-killing Blade that turned Barbara Minerva into the Leopard Girl. With the huge manpower Material and resources, the Sky Eye Bureau has received and mailed many magic props."

"Although you don't actually understand what these magic props are used for. I'm always surprised by your audacity. You are touching things that you don't understand enough, or even don't know what they are."

Amanda Waller didn't seem to hear Batman's cynicism. She continued: "The Heart of Darkness, a magical prop, can inspire the evil side of human hearts as long as it is close. Now it seems that this prop may have His own consciousness, thereby bewitching Maxivier——"

"It's not that the Heart of Darkness has a consciousness of its own."

Chen Tao interrupted Amanda Waller.

He held his head with a headache: "The Heart of Darkness is a sealed gem, which seals Tian Eclipse, a dangerous person on the magic side."

"Eclipse? Who is that?" Amanda Waller had never heard the name.

"He is the former Executioner of God, the incarnation of the Spirit of God's wrath."

Then she heard Batman say:

"In the beginning, God created the spirit of wrath to punish the wicked and cleanse the world of evil and sin. The spirit of wrath was also called the false angel Galid or LLadiz."

“In ancient times, in order to wash away sins, angry spirits once caused a great flood.

"The spirit of wrath is driven by anger, but the anger is not sharp enough, so God created a spirit of vengeance to replace the spirit of wrath. This spirit of vengeance is a ghost."

"To this day, God's vengeful spirit Specter remains the most powerful superhero on the magical side."

Amanda Waller listened silently to what Batman said. The other person seemed to be completely immersed in his own world. He seemed a little frustrated and a little annoyed.

"Of course, Ghost is also the most useless superhero."

"Oops, the invincible ghost collapsed again!"

"Okay, just kidding."

Batman rambled on, and Amanda Waller didn't quite understand what he was talking about, but she registered every word.

This is information that Batman enjoys, and if it weren't for this opportunity, he would never share it with the Sky Eye.

"In short, the angry spirit was deprived of his rights and status by his successor, the ghost, who sealed the angry spirit in a black diamond [Heart of Darkness] that is a specialty of Apokolips and can only bring sadness and pain to people. , and banished the embers of the angry spirit to the far side of the moon."

"And the angry spirit is the eclipse."

"Later, the black diamond Heart of Darkness that sealed the sky eclipse was found by an American explorer on the African savannah. He cut the Heart of Darkness into 1000 pieces and spread them to every corner of the world. Each piece of the Heart of Darkness hides the sky. The evil essence of Eclipse. This allows Eclipse to extend his tentacles all over the world, but it also weakens his power. Only when more fragments of the Heart of Darkness are gathered together can he be able to exert his powerful magic."

Chen Tao said:

"But even though he is sealed in the Heart of Darkness, Sky Eclipse can still control and possess anyone who comes into contact with the Heart of Darkness. Even if he is only possessed, he still possesses unparalleled magical power."

"What's worse is that the Sky Eye Society has found a larger piece of it." Amanda Waller said without blushing or heartbeat: "This gem made every staff member who was close to it go crazy, so we had to He was not kept in a special area for safekeeping, but he did not expect that the scope of his control over human minds began to become larger and larger. Every jailer was struggling with whether to reach out and touch the heart of darkness. Even repeated orders had little effect. Micro, this is completely beyond the control of humans, so we finally switched to robots.”

Chen Tao said: "But Celestial Eclipse still used his magic to influence Maxwell Lauder. He gave Lauder the idea of ​​obtaining the Heart of Darkness.

"More than that,"

Amanda Waller said:

"He also radiated the entire Berelfe prison. Except for the few super villains who escaped before, now everyone's minds in the entire prison have been played by the eclipse. This is why I am hiding in this house now. reason." Amanda Waller said: "I was isolated."

Chen Tao looked very unhappy.

The situation is now very clear. Amanda Waller and his Sky Eye Bureau are playing with the Heart of Darkness, which they don’t understand at all. They merge many small dark stars into large ones, and then let the piece in their hands continue to It grew bigger, and then naturally the power of the eclipse was restored.

After losing her temper, Amanda Waller was forced to huddle in her room and activate a magical protective barrier to prevent the eclipse from invading her mind. However, this also resulted in her being unable to contact anyone and could only hope that Batman would find him through clues. situation, and then come to help save lives.

"So to sum it up, you were on every possible precaution against me, afraid that I would know even a little bit about what you were doing, and then you made a time bomb in your warehouse, and then the bomb was activated. You told me, now I This bomb has to be dealt with because if it explodes it will blow the entire Justice League into the sky."

Chen Tao said: "Can I understand it this way?"

"We did not create this time bomb. When we discovered the Heart of Darkness, the Eclipse was already absorbing many fragments of the Heart of Darkness."

Amanda Waller corrected: "No Sky Eye will bring the Heart of Darkness back. It will explode in some other corner that we don't know about, and it will cause more serious damage. And now we at least know that our enemy is who."

"I think you must have a solution by now," she said.

……

…    …

Maxwell Lauder closed his eyes.

He could still hear an old man's voice echoing in his ears.

That was the voice of the High Priest of Alcatraz, a magician. Maxwell Lord found him and forced him to brand himself with the talisman.

"The world is already fragile."

He thought of the dying voice of the old priest whose beard and eyebrows were white.

Then his own voice rang out:

"That's it, the world is going to hell, isn't it? He's going crazy, and someone has to end him."

The high priest shook his head, blood streaming from the wounds on his face.

"Not you. You were born human, but I see in your eyes a man who chose darkness."

He stared directly at Lauder. To this day, Lauder still remembers the look in his eyes before he died.

"Why is this necessary? You and I both know that Eclipse will eventually regain his freedom." Maxwell Lord said: "Wouldn't it be better if someone could control him?"

"Control? Stop joking. Your abilities are useless. You may be able to control a group of wild dogs, but you are not strong enough to control them."

Maxwell Lord narrowed his eyes. Blood flowed from his nose and he activated his power on the high priest.

His voice began to become erratic and persuasive, making it sound as if he was thinking about himself.

"Well, then give me what I want, and then I can make the outcome good for everyone. I promise you, if you help me, I can spare you the pain."

However, he still got rejection.

"I would never help you, Maxwell Lord."

"Is that so? Maybe you just need a little more motivation..."

Then came the hoarse screams.

Maxwell Lauder opened his eyes and saw Violent Wolf and the others standing in front of him. They had surrendered themselves completely, and what he was about to receive would be far beyond what the old man could comprehend.

A person who chooses darkness? There is no way to control it?

Just wait and see... I will prove it to you with facts...

There was wind under his feet and he walked towards his goal. Baolang and the others followed him silently, like his guard of honor.

Under the breeze as the battle was about to begin, Maxiwell Lauder looked far into the distance and saw that not far away from the dancing shadows of the trees, Bellev Prison stood there quietly, quietly waiting for his arrival. .

And the center of this prison is their goal:

Eclipse!

Boom! ! !

Dozens of minutes later, Wonder Woman, who had just sent several villains such as shrapnel and steel beams back to Belle Reve Prison, escaped a concrete boulder with steel bars thrown by Dr. Polaris using magnetism.

She held her sword horizontally, squatted on the ground, looked at the many enemies that suddenly appeared in front of her, turned her head and asked the Flash:

"Can you contact Batman?"

Her hair was spread out and her face was covered in blood. This was not the blood she shed, but the result of her slashing the wolf's chest with her sword. However, such wounds disappeared invisible within a few seconds, and could not even stop the opponent's footsteps.

This black-haired, red-eyed, white-skinned alien mercenary is truly immortal. He can even recover from injuries caused by having his head blown off. Wonder Woman's heart-piercing sword is like scratching an itch for him.

Clang!

Before Wonder Woman had time to wait for the Flash's answer, she once again waved her sword to block the chain thrown by the wolf, and then kicked the opponent backwards.

"Is there any way to target this enemy?"

From just now to now, she has slashed the wolf at least seven or eight times. As a human shield for the opponent's team, the wolf's defense makes Wonder Woman feel helpless. She turned her head, but before the Flash could speak, she read "I don't know" in his pupils, and was immediately speechless.

The cosmic mercenary who had just been kicked away quickly came back. He jumped, raised his hands wrapped in iron chains high, and hammered the ground like a gorilla. With the loud bang, There was a loud noise, and the seemingly solid ground instantly fell into pieces, with gravel flying. He cooperated fully with several other teammates and drove Wonder Woman and The Flash to run around.

"Can't reach Batman." Flash Barry said: "Damn it, I can't focus because this guy is in my mind..."

Opposite the two of them, Maxwell Loud's nose was bleeding out, which was a sign that he was activating his abilities, while the Flash continued to use the Speed ​​Force to accelerate his thinking speed in an attempt to avoid Loud's mind. ability. This is a common move used by speedsters when dealing with telepaths, but the Flash is actually not very skilled at it, so it's very difficult.

In The Flash's original career, the strongest and longest telepath he faced was Gorilla Grodd. However, the gorilla Grodd in this universe has long been used as a battery by Chen Tao. Without Grodd's training, Barry will naturally be weak against those with telepathy abilities...

"Where are the other Justice League members?" Wonder Woman asked, "Can they make it back?"

While talking, the heroine rolled and dodged Rostam who was holding a flaming knife. His slash caused the ground to burn with flames, and then the green light energy emitted from the Emerald Queen's green eyes bombarded the ground. On her back, the heroine only let out a muffled groan, and the sword in her hand bounced away from the opponent's follow-up attack.

The Flash followed her at an extremely fast speed, constantly reading the messages from the communicator in his hand.

"Let me see... the news I got here is that Martian Manhunter was accidentally hit by a missile made of magnesium. A few minutes ago, he jumped into the river covered with fire to heal his injuries, and he has not come out yet. "

"The whole gang of scoundrels was dealing with a gang of gangsters who were the mastermind behind the train robbery. And then those guys actually caused a mini-earthquake... How did you do that?"

"Shazam is involved in a magical battle from other small planes, a magical land ruled by a man called the Kid King... Something seems to be happening to everyone. It can't be such a coincidence."

"Someone is targeting the Justice League."

Wonder Woman gritted her teeth, and then said, "What about the others?"

"I'm afraid I will also be plotted." The Flash said, he looked a little absent-minded, and then he whispered: "These are not important, the most important thing is that I have not contacted Batman for more than 10 minutes, you said ,is it possible……"

"That's right, it's just as you imagined. We also prepared a big gift for Batman."

Maxwell Lauder said. His nose was bleeding, but he seemed completely unaware of it.

He seemed to be in a good mood. Wonder Woman was fighting the group of villains again. Johnny, whose face was purely a mask, summoned countless limbs of the King of Tears from the void, constantly attacking the heroine and forcing him to The opponent defended with a shield, while the Emerald Queen's eyeballs launched energy shocks in a timely manner to oppress.

"As long as you observe carefully, you can be prepared for the entire Justice League." Maxwell Lawd still looked gentle and elegant.

He said:

"People always have weaknesses, don't they? And Batman's weakness is his son. He can't give up on the other party, especially after he gave up on his son and instead dealt with the alliance's problems first.

"……what have you done?"

Flash asked.

Although he has always had great confidence in Batman, what he saw before him made him feel like he was facing Batman.

The same target, the same direct attack, and the interlocking plans that lead everyone by the nose. And Batman just happened to have a son, which is indeed his weakness.

Damn it, Batman, you won't...

"And you know what? Now you are the only ones left in the entire alliance."

Maxwell Lauder said: "The only two people who have not had time to be targeted, please forgive me, this is not because I don't pay enough attention to you. On the contrary, maybe you will be more unfortunate than those who were targeted, because It’s all of us you’re going to face.”

"We now need to wait until Batman comes to the rescue." The Flash whispered to Wonder Woman: "I don't believe it is so easy for Batman..."

He gritted his teeth: "Batman is always ready for everything. He can target every enemy he sees, and so are these people."

He said to Wonder Woman: "Batman must be able to prepare methods to deal with these people in advance. I just need to hold on long enough..."

"Big mistake."

But his voice was soon interrupted by the even louder Maxi Willlawd.

"Batman is able to target you solely because he gets along with you day and night. This is just an expert in civil war and an outsider in foreign war."

He said: "He can only target his teammates instead of facing truly dangerous enemies..."

"Admit it, Batman isn't coming back."
