What bad thoughts can Batman have?

Chapter 530 The Caped Crusader’s Choice!
I'm Mobius.

It's strange, why would I want to rebel against the Anti-Monitor?

You see, even though I'm just the remnants of a reality that was erased and reflected in the mirror of the Dark Multiverse on a timeline that was rewritten by a certain universe reboot, the fact is that I'm still part of the Anti-Monitor, and if I want to oppose the Anti-Monitor, it would be as ridiculous as the tongue against the brain.

I am the Anti-Monitor! Isn't this title mine?

I must have been controlled by Batman just now, which is why I had such ridiculous thoughts.

I have to deal with Superboy-Prime now.

Believe me, he is far from being a difficult opponent.

……

……

……

"Huchihuchihuchi..."

Hall of Justice.

After a brief confrontation with the Anti-Monitor, Chen Tao, Luther and his group fled back to their own universe in a panic.

They all appeared in a safe place as soon as possible.

Then rays of light flashed rapidly in the Hall of Justice, and soon other members of the Justice League also appeared here.

"We are safe." Luther also panted.

There was a gleam of excitement on his bald head.

"We did it, Batman, we did it, our universe is safe!"

Luthor could hardly control his indescribable ecstasy. He didn't even care whether what he had done would be spread out. Instead, he started talking directly in front of the members of the Justice League.

"Soon, Superboy-Prime will be fighting the Anti-Monitor. It won't be easy for either of them to win."

"And this window of time was enough for us to control those cosmic propulsion towers and escape with our world. Although Night Owl's universe would be destroyed, our world survived."

"Wait, is Nite Owl's universe going to end?" Martian Manhunter asked. "Are you and Batman determined to abandon that universe?"

Luther got up from the ground.

"This is a necessary sacrifice."

He took off his green armor and brushed off the non-existent dust on his body.

"It's all over now. Our universe is safe. That's all that matters."

Martian Manhunter didn't speak. And the other members of the Justice League didn't speak either.

There was silence for a while, and suddenly, Wonder Woman Diana said: "What are we waiting for? Let's drive this universe away quickly."

Everyone didn't know what to say. They couldn't blame Batman for abandoning a universe to save their own, but they couldn't bear to see innocent people die in place of themselves and others.

They didn't say a word in the end.

Luther looked normal.

He did not feel guilty about it at all, instead he just felt happy for surviving the disaster.

He said to Chen Tao: "Bat, we need to quickly activate those propulsion towers, and no one is more suitable than you to be the main control room..."

But he saw that Batman didn't move.

He did not show the same expression of surviving a disaster as Luthor, nor was he prepared to operate the entire propulsion tower. He just stood there silently, as silent as a statue like the other members of the Justice League.

Luther's heart immediately skipped a beat.

……

……

……

Night Owl opened his eyes.

He stared blankly at the robot that appeared before him.

This robot is called Failsafe, and it is the ultimate weapon that Night Owl once built for himself to deal with special situations.

There's no doubt that this robot is very powerful, and even had the help of the entire Crime Syndicate in its creation, but... all of this is useless.

It can neither help Nite Owl defeat the Anti-Monitor, nor help him control Superboy-Prime, nor can it even stop Batman.

This robot is equipped with everything Night Owl could think of. Night Owl has put all his efforts into this thing, but he, like Night Owl himself, is ultimately a joke.

Night Owl knew he should laugh, and maybe he could laugh, the Joker virus had invaded his mind, but he couldn't laugh at all.

He was so tired that he didn't even have the energy to laugh.

"Night Owl spotted... salvage procedures underway."

The fail-safe robot discovered Night Owl, scanned him and helped him get rid of the restraints on his body. Now he can move again.

It threw the metal coffin that had been cut open by the laser aside, and then said to the Night Owl that was lying on the ground: "The restraints have been removed."

The red light in the robot's eyes flashed for a while, and then with a burst of jet sound, a brand new Night Owl armor flew in from outside the door, controlled by the fail-safe robot, which pushed open the door itself.

Night Owl lay on the ground without moving. He just wanted to wait quietly for death to come. He no longer had the strength or desire to resist.

Then he heard the retarded robot he had created ask: "Why, Night Owl, don't you stand up?"

The robot scanned Night Owl's body.

"No injuries were found."

Night Owl turned over and lay there limp like a salted fish. He didn't want to pay attention to the robot.

He needs to be quiet and think about his life.

From the beginning to now.

His whole life...

Then Night Owl, who had become a worthless person, was forcibly lifted up from the ground by the robot he made himself.

"Let me go, you fucking ..."

"Sir, after testing, your vital signs are all normal and your weapon systems are all normal. Please start saving your universe now. You need to work hard--"

"I've fought your mother..."

Night Owl raised his armor and tried to attack the stupid robot, and then saw the other party's eyes flashing red.

"Scanning... Found that Night Owl is under the mental control of some unknown target, activate the emergency protection procedure!"

There was a confused look on Night Owl's face. After he made this robot, he deleted part of his memory in order to prevent leaks. He didn't know how he designed this robot.

"Night Owl is being infused with past memory personalities to counteract the mind control. Memory infusion will begin in 20 seconds."

"20." "Damn it, I don't need it anymore, do you understand? Everything is hopeless, no matter what plan you prepared, it's all hopeless now, understand? It's hopeless!"

The Night Owl's shouting and cursing were of no avail, as Failsafe was just a robot that would faithfully carry out the orders given to him by the former Night Owl.

He was just counting down coldly.

At the same time, a projection shot out from his chest. Night Owl looked up and saw that it was his former self.

"It's 11:17 pm now. I decided to give this robot a command to force me to save the world." Night Owl saw that he was silent for a while, and then said: "I don't know who is reading this message now, but I think it is very likely my future self."

"There is a very real possibility that I will be controlled, defeated, and demoralized in the future, so I am afraid I will have to make a plan for this situation. In a safe environment, the fail-safe robot will pass the 20-second countdown and then share the past memories with the present self."

“This will both defeat most mental manipulation and ensure your decisions are consistent.”

Night Owl held his head in front of the projection: "It's useless. I didn't know what I was facing at that time. It's over. Everything is over."

He cried bitterly and was on the verge of complete emotional collapse.

"I'm dead! The universe is dead too!" He completely lost the ability to perceive the outside world and just kept repeating these words. Then he was captured by the mechanical tentacles extended by the fail-safe robot.

The tentacles wrapped around his head, and then transformed through some unknown technology into starfish tentacles that were exactly the same as Starro's. Night Owl was able to allow a robot to use Starro's abilities, even if it was directly implanted through cells, it was an extremely shocking achievement.

Then, as the memories of the past poured into him, Night Owl's whole body shook.

More memories belonging to Nite Owl himself were input into his mind, overwriting those contaminated by the Joker virus.

Night Owl slowly got up from the ground. He regained his senses, but a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"What a shame, nothing can help now."

He stepped past the failsafe robot, took two steps forward, and then looked ahead in confusion.

In this ruined world, is there anything he can do to save himself?
……

……

……

"What do you want to do?" Luthor had a bad feeling in his heart, and he asked Batman in a deep voice: "You are not going to do anything stupid, are you?"

Before Batman could say anything, Luthor interrupted him and said anxiously:
"Listen to me, everything is ok now. We just need to follow the plan and escape with our universe. Night Owl brought this upon himself. He originally intended to sacrifice our world to the Anti-Monitor. Now we have left the result of our world to his world. This is called retribution. There is nothing morally wrong with this."

He said, "And you can't win against the Anti-Monitor. You've already fought him, haven't you? He beat you up and left you with a bloody face. If you could have fought the Anti-Monitor head-on, I wouldn't have stopped you."

"And Superboy-Prime, he hates you to the core. Even though you can manipulate him to fight the Anti-Monitor, can you guarantee that he won't attack you whenever you appear in front of him?"

Luther rambled on and on: "This is completely courting death. It's unnecessary and stupid. The result now is already very good. It's the result of all of our joint efforts."

"you should not……"

"That was in the plan." He then heard Batman tell him, "I've been planning to do that since I was planning."

"You're lying." Luther exposed him without hesitation: "You've been hesitating. You've been letting me go. You've acquiesced to my plan."

"Come on, Batman, you were planning to stop here. Whether or not to go back and die is just a matter of choice for you."

"You have this in your plan, but you also have a plan not to do that."

Chen Tao wanted to laugh.

Is it really that obvious? Hal the Green Lantern saw it, and now even Luthor saw it.

There's really nothing I can hide in front of these guys.

Then Chen Tao smiled...

He savored it quietly, savoring his own timidity, savoring his own fear, and then killed these complicated emotions in his heart one by one.

His gaze gradually became firm, and a raging fire began to burn in his heart from the inside out, igniting his entire body.

People often say that this is the so-called enlightenment.

"So why?"

"Why was this decision made?"

"Isn't it good to live a good life?"

"What are you worried about? What are you afraid of? What are your stupid moral concepts and desires for self-sacrifice?"

"Does that kind of self-sacrifice make you cum?"

Luthor turned his head and looked at the other members of the Justice League: "No one will blame you. You are undoubtedly a hero to this universe. You led all of us out of the predicament of death."

"Even at the expense of others?"

"I've already told you that no one will blame you. Are you listening to me?"

Luther was inexplicably angry and panicked:

"You think you have such high moral standards, you..."

No one spoke, and the atmosphere quickly became as solemn as a funeral.

Luthor turned his head and looked at the rest of the Justice League.

"Speak, you are mute, aren't you very talkative, Ron?"

He clicked on Martian Manhunter's name, and then clicked on one after another:

"Clark, the savior of mankind? Weren't you very good at speaking during the days when we were fighting? Are you going to watch your companions commit suicide now?"

"Diana Prince? You're going to watch me persuade this lunatic alone?"

No one responded to him, and Luther felt like he was the only one isolated, which was a terrible feeling.

"Luther!"

Luthor raised his head and stared at Batman blankly.

His eyes met the other person's star-like eyes, like the first time he looked up at the stars as a child.

He guessed Batman's decision, and a feeling of anger welled up in his heart.

"What's the point of this? Are you morally superior? Are you planning to go back alone?"

He shouted angrily: "You are out of your mind. We tried our best to escape from there!"

But when he heard the other's laughter, he couldn't believe why Batman could laugh.

"Listen to me." Then he heard Batman's voice: "You've never lived in Gotham City, have you? Luthor, you've been Clark's enemy, but you've never been my enemy for long."

Chen Tao lowered his eyelids.

"So today, I might as well teach you a way to target Batman, a weakness that Batman can never change:"

"His endless desire to save the weak will get him into trouble."
