Chapter 1401: Say my name (end)
Translator: 549690339
Once, a man in a purple suit told a joke to a man dressed as a bat.
The joke was like this, Yingluo.
Once upon a time, there were two people in a mental hospital.
One night, they decided to escape the mental hospital together.
They climbed onto the roof, and the city’s scenery extended under the moonlight. The road in front of them led to the world of freedom.!!
However, there was a narrow gap between the two buildings in front of them.
The first person jumped over easily, but his friend didn’t dare to, because he was afraid of falling.
The first person thought of an idea. He said to his friend,””Hey! I’ve brought a flashlight with me. When I turn it on and shine it between the two buildings, you can step on the light and come over. ”
However, the second person shook his head and said,””What? Do you think I’m crazy?”
“You’ll definitely turn off the flashlight when I’m halfway there!”
…………
Under the hazy moonlight, the Batmobile sped through the street.
Wayne in the car … We still have to call him that for the time being … His expression was grave.
His destination was undoubtedly the carnival that had been abandoned for many years.
For a person who had the same reasoning ability as the real Bruce Wayne … Solving Feng bujue’s puzzle was not too difficult.
The ‘flashlight’ that brother Jue had given him was like a key, and the lock that matched the key … Feng bujue had left it at Arkham Asylum this afternoon.
“Water…Where there’s water…Huge wheels, wooden boards, weeds, and…A pink elephant …”
This was what Feng bujue had said during his conversation with doctor Quinn, and without a doubt … It had been recorded down by the recorder.
At first glance, it sounded like the ramblings of a mental patient, but in reality, Feng bujue was using the fragmented information that was related to the visual to point to a specific location. This place … Or rather …”This scene”, he had once seen it in a comic, and that comic was one of the most famous and classic stories in the Batman series,”fatal jokes.”
There was a lot of space in the story, including its final climax … It all happened in the abandoned Carnival.
Anyone who had a certain level of understanding of Batman comics would have an impression of that place; Needless to say … Wayne, who “had the ability to stop many villains from turning dark,” must also know where the carnival was.
Of course, there were thousands of Batman stories, and this description that sounded like it had no beginning or end was probably too vague. Therefore, Feng bujue used another item that was related to’ fatal joke ‘to point at the flashlight and show Wayne the way.
When they met for the second time on the top floor of the Twin Towers, Feng bujue and Wayne had already found out that the other was also a traveler from another world, and it was not hard to tell from their conversation that there was a hidden meaning to it. The difference was that Wayne had come to this realization in the submarine, but brother Jue had come to this realization even earlier. Therefore, Feng bujue had prepared the flashlight and said,’I will be waiting for you there’ when he threw it.
At this point, brother Jue’s plan was complete.
As for Wayne … After returning to the Bat Cave, he immediately took the flashlight to the instrument for a comprehensive analysis. At the same time, he pulled up acheham’s video and voice recording and quickly browsed through them.
About forty minutes later, when he heard brother Jue’s message, combined with the clues from the flashlight, it did not take long for him to figure out where the ‘place’ that the man had mentioned was.
…………
Wuwuwu
On the road in the suburbs, the sound of the engine tore through the night sky.
Wayne of this universe was not driving the “reality” armored Batmobile like in Nolan’s movies, but Tim Burton’s “super” Batmobile. The streamlined long and narrow body, the pitch-black reflective outer shell, the exaggerated turbine air intake … Under the unified Gothic design, they were integrated into one. This was the appearance that the classic bat equipment should have.
咔–嗡–
Just as the Batmobile was about to reach the entrance of the carnival, suddenly, there was the sound of large equipment powering up. Dozens of strong lights lit up in the dark and focused on the center of the road.
At this moment, a man in a purple suit was standing in the middle of the road.
Through the screen in the car, Wayne could see the other person’s full appearance without being affected by the light. Jack looked no different from before, the only subtle difference was that his hands were in a gloved state.
Wayne didn’t know what it meant, and he didn’t care about the details.
Within two seconds, he made a decision. He stepped on the gas pedal to the maximum and rushed straight at the other party.
“Ha …” Facing the Batmobile that was speeding toward him, a smile appeared on Feng bujue’s face.”Good timing …” He opened his arms and shouted,”come on!”
The roar of the engine was approaching without any signs of slowing down.
“Come on! Hit me!” Feng bujue still stood in the middle of the road, at the center of the lights. He had no intention of retreating.
“Crazy …” Looking at brother Jue’s actions, Wayne could not help but mumble to himself in the car.
Bang! Bang!
Two seconds later, a collision occurred.
Wayne had indeed predicted that Feng bujue had superpowers, but he did not think that the man’s power was strong enough to withstand the impact.
A Batmobile that weighed more than two tons and crashed into a target at more than two hundred kilometers per hour would generate about 3.09 million Joules of kinetic energy. For a human like Feng bujue who weighed about one hundred pounds, this energy was enough to evaporate him.
However, the scene of the collision was …
Brother Jue raised his foot and ‘stomped’ the entire Batmobile to a stop the moment the front of the Batmobile was about to hit him.
At that moment, with brother Jue’s foot as the center, the ground around him shattered and formed a large crater. The Batmobile that had been stopped also began to change under the effect of inertia. The entire car was like a squashed can …
However, the materials used to make the Batmobile were truly astonishing. Its hardness and toughness had far exceeded the limits of human technology. Under such an impact, the “one-piece” body did not completely fall apart. It was only “compressed and deformed” to a certain extent.
Wuwuwuwu
Then, the movable hatch on the upper part of the back of the Batmobile (the Batmobile in 1989 could enter and exit by moving the hatch that was integrated with the windshield) was bounced off. It was not sent flying by some kind of “ejection device”, but by a punch from the person in the car …
“HO …” Feng bujue looked at the man who slowly stood up from the car that was almost flattened, and he mumbled in a lazy tone,”so, you’re not dead yet?”
“That …” Wayne stepped out of the car. He looked down at brother Jue and said in his throat-like voice,”…I should be the one saying that.”
Naturally, Feng bujue would not die. He had already made a deal with the doctor from Manhattan. With the professor’s particle manipulation, decomposition, recombination, ignoring the law of causality, the Kongtong seal, and the energy stored in the [Big Dipper earth Demon Box]… Brother Jue had already found the equipment and skills he had lost, and … He had become stronger.
Wayne would not die, either. Even though he had suffered the same impact as Feng bujue, he was … Well prepared that night. This level of damage was nothing.
“the set you’re wearing … looks like ‘hell bat'(Hellbat, hell bat armor, DC new era 52, designed by bruce wayne, and created by other members of the alliance of justice and order)’.” even though wayne did not answer brother jue’s question, brother jue continued.”but you and i both know … the alliance of justice and order in this universe does not have supermen or green light men. in other words … the two most important parts of this armor, the outer shell and the cloak (they are extremely strong and can change shape according to the user’s will, or even separate from them)… are impossible to complete.” he paused for a moment.”even if you can use a substitute to solve the material problem, it still can’t explain how you survived the amazing ‘car accident’.”
“hmph … so there are things that you can’t imagine.” wayne snorted coldly and swung his fist.
his fist was so powerful that when feng bujue caught it with one hand, the air around him exploded.
“Actually, I’ve thought of it, but I’m just complaining.” Brother Jue looked at Wayne, who was still in shock, with a smile and replied,”you’ve found the formula for Miraclo, right?”
“You …” Wayne turned to look at his fist, which was firmly held by the other party. He didn’t know what to say.
Before Wayne came here, he had indeed injected himself with Miraclo, and he was wearing his own “improved” hell bat armor … Logically speaking, his punch should have killed Wayne.
However, Feng bujue looked like he was taking the punches easily.
“I’m guessing the expression on your face right now must be very interesting,” Feng bujue said as he reached out with lightning speed to grab the man’s helmet and used brute force to rip it off.”…Why don’t you share it with me?”
After a part of the helmet was broken, the other half fell off Wayne’s face. Then, a shocked and angry face appeared before brother Jue’s eyes.
Even if you have the same intelligence as Bruce Wayne, your ‘wisdom’ is still mediocre.” Feng bujue flicked his hand to get rid of the helmet fragment between his fingers.”Like most ‘transmigrators’, even though you have gained great power, you still can not escape from your own worldview and personality.”
His tone gradually became cold. It was a kind of coldness similar to’ disappointment ‘, like a child who had lost interest in the toy in his hand … It made people shudder at this moment.
“Why did you make the ‘hell bat armor’? Why couldn’t he design it from scratch? You have far more resources and information than the real Wayne, don’t you?” Feng bujue asked,”if you use the technology of mass production of the inetron alloy on weapons, whether it is to make an armor coating or to use it as the core to create a single piece of armor … It will be more useful than the emasculated version of the hell bat that you are wearing right now.”
Wayn was completely enraged by brother Jue ‘s’ lecture ‘. He roared and activated the secret weapon in the armor on his right wrist.
Instantly, a silent impact exploded and shattered the armor on Wayne’s right arm. At the same time … It also caused damage to Feng bujue, who was holding onto his right fist.
After the explosion, brother Jue’s left hand … The part in front of his elbow disappeared as if it had been vaporized. If he hadn’t let go in time and retreated, the injury would have probably extended to his shoulder.
“Hmm … Is this the ‘original’ part of your work?” When Feng bujue spoke, he did not even think about it. He took out the forest-like Xu orb from his inventory and used its power to repair his broken limb.”This kind of ‘atomic burst’ that damages the enemy by a thousand and the self by eight hundred … It really can not be called brilliant.”
“What do you know?” Wayne shouted,”what right do you have to judge me?” He roared as he got off the broken Batmobile.”I’m doing the ‘right thing’!” A matter of justice! Do you know how much blood, sweat, and effort I put in to create and maintain today’s situation?”
“I know.” “I’ve already asked the doctor from Manhattan to use telepathy to tell me what you’ve been through here,” Feng bujue said. He paused for half a second, then added,”it’s precisely because I know that I despise you even more.”
“What did you just say?” Wayne’s expression showed that he thought it was unbelievable.
“Your ‘justice’ is fake. It’s a double standard.” Feng bujue continued,”the real Bruce Wayne will not walk the same path as you … Even if he has the same amount of information as you.”
“are you referring to his principle of ‘not killing’?” “you and i both know how stupid that principle is!” wayne said.
“yes, it’s very stupid.” feng bujue said,”but this ‘stupidity’ is a dividing line in his heart … it is this line that separates the justice he carries from your ‘lowly’,’selfish’, and ‘hypocritical’ justice …”
“nonsense!” waine yelled again. he flashed to brother jue’s side and threw another punch.
feng bujue did not even look at his opponent. with a backflip, he easily dodged the attack. before he even stood still, he continued,””in order to kill the villains who might become a ‘threat’ in the future, you started to act long before you became ‘batman’… and the first thing you did was to plot and kill the people who bullied the grassmen.”
“Those guys are a bunch of bastards!” Wayne’s attacks did not stop as he retorted.
“Ha … It sounds like you can empathize with me. I can imagine … Before you transmigrated, your days weren’t good either.” Feng bujue’s ability to see through a person’s heart was impressive, and his words had hit the fake Wayne’s sore spot.
“You killed and injured so many innocent police officers. What right do you have to blame me?” When Wayne asked, there was another round of fierce attacks.
However, brother Jue was having an easier time dodging.”You saved Mr. Freeze’s wife because you pitied him. You stopped the two-faced person from being disfigured because you appreciated him. You also led the Penguin man to the right path because you felt that he was valuable as a good person …
“But you dealt with the sad crocodile killer differently …
“You found the killer crocodile in his youth, claimed to protect him, and arranged a suitable hiding place for him.
“At first, he was very ‘obedient’ because when he was young, he was also very afraid of the changes in his body. But as time passed, he gradually couldn’t stand that kind of life anymore.
“At that moment, you had the intention to kill him … Because you knew that after he returned to society, even if you could make him temporarily be kind, this world full of malice would one day force out his beastly nature.
“So … One day, you sent him a ‘specially made bed’. After he laid on it without any wariness against you, you locked him up with chains. Then, you sealed the entrance to his residence and left him to die inside … As if you didn’t have to be responsible for his death.”
“What do you know? Do you know how much pain I was in?” Wayne roared,”I do see Warren (the killer crocodile’s real name is Warren Jones) as a friend! Do you think I feel good locking him up there?”
“yes, you were upset for a short while. then, you went back to your good life.” hearing wayne’s excited tone, the disdain in brother jue’s words became even more obvious.”after taking care of crocodile killer, you calculated that the time was almost up, so you went to kill the botanist jason wood and stopped the birth of poison ivy girl … of course, by your standards, even the school bullies deserved to die, not to mention people like wood.
“next, you turned the riddler into an idiot because his dark side was hard to stop for no reason. his intelligence will pose a huge threat to you …
“as for a guy like zas, just throw him into a prison with a high level of security. maybe he will change for the better in time, right? ha … even if he really doesn’t change and insists on doing evil things after he’s released, he’s not a difficult character to deal with. you just have to catch him again … and lock him up for another ten years, and that’ll be all. ”
When Wayne heard this, he no longer argued. Instead, he asked,””So what? I’ve killed the hidden dangers that would bring countless deaths and disasters, and I’ve also reduced the sacrifices to the minimum. Compared to the ‘so-called hero who condoned the villains’ evil deeds and never killed people ‘, I’ve saved more people!”
“That’s where your problem lies,” Feng bujue said.”No matter how high-sounding you sound, in the end, the ones who really make the ‘sacrifice’… Are other people.”
Wayne’s heart skipped a beat at those words, and his expression changed slightly.
“See, if I didn’t remind you, you wouldn’t have realized this, right? This is the typical ‘traveler’s mind’.” Feng bujue said,”a person who holds to double standards and extreme self-interest, he sees everything he does … As righteous.
“Your own pain … For example, the loss of a so-called ‘friend’… Is infinitely magnified by you, as if it is so great that it is touching; As for the pain of others … For example, becoming brain-damaged or dying … In your opinion, they were all ‘reasonable’.
“Your so-called ‘justice’ is just doing things that you feel are ‘convenient’; If it was easy to deal with, you would use the lawful method to deal with it. As for the difficult to deal with … People or things that would cause you ‘trouble’, you would use the ‘crossing of boundaries’ method to deal with them once and for all. After that, you would attribute them to’ reasonable sacrifices that had more advantages than disadvantages ‘.
“at the end of the day, your personal gains and losses are greater than justice itself. your personal will is greater than all other systems.”
“no matter how many reasons you find to convince me, no matter how many things you think are right, compared to the real bruce wayne … you are worthless.
“because he’s a person who’s more ruthless to himself than to others. he’s a madman, an incurable fool!
“he’s … f * cking … batman!”
as he said that, feng bujue’s tone became higher.
at the same time, the fake wayne stopped his attack and realized something. at this moment, his ability was being “extracted” bit by bit by some strange force.
he … was gradually becoming a mortal.
“Putting aside your identity as Batman, what about your private life as ‘Bruce Wayne’?” But Feng bujue was not done yet.”Why did you marry Harleen Quinn and make her use the name of Harleen Quinn after the marriage? In the end … It’s just because of your personal preferences. Compared to the ‘B * tch from the east side’ like the catgirl (in the first year of Batman, the catgirl is the B * tch of the bottom of the Brotherhood), a pure and highly educated psychology professor is naturally more suitable to be a wife … Of course, the premise is that she doesn’t become a crazy fan of some madman. ”
Brother Jue spread his hands and laughed.”Speaking of which … That madman, with your help, has become a middle-class comedian with a decent life, right? his children are almost in high school, right?” Brother Jue had already learned all of this from the professor in Manhattan.”And ‘Mud Man’ is still a B-rated movie star. The ventriloquist is living a comfortable retirement life … As for the Robin, Batwoman, and Alfred … They’ve all been away from Bruce Wayne and Batman under your arrangement, and are living ordinary lives. ”
Feng bujue pouted and sighed.”Sigh … You’ve already fulfilled most of the basic goals of the transmigrators. You’ve achieved your own safety, a high degree of privacy and freedom, plenty of material enjoyment, the woman you like … Plus a few weak or mentally-retarded opponents to satisfy your sense of achievement as a ‘hero’… It’s a pretty good life, isn’t it?”
At this point, he suddenly changed the topic and said,”here’s the question … What the f * ck does this have to do with ‘justice’?”
“Do you think you’re more right than the so-called hero who condoned the villains ‘evil deeds and never killed?
“Then you’re wrong …
“You, and him, fake Wayne, and the real Batman … There is a fundamental difference between your justice.
“The difference has nothing to do with the ‘result’. No matter how many people you ‘save’, it can’t change or explain anything.
“The difference is related to the most basic starting point of your actions, and it is related to the true meaning and spirit of the word ‘hero’.
“The difference is … All your actions in the name of justice are all for yourself. And Bruce Wayne … The real Batman, his justice, although not entirely … At least a large part of it is for others. ”
When brother Jue said that, the fake Wayne’s power had almost dissipated.
“You … What do you want?” At that moment, the fake Wayne’s tone changed. There was fear in his eyes because he had a feeling that he understood brother Jue’s intention.
“Hmph … Hehehe …” Hearing that, brother Jue smiled evilly. He did not answer the question. Instead, he tilted his head and opened his arms.”My appearance reminds you of someone … Don’t you think so?”
“No… No!” In his panic, the fake Wayne finally revealed his true nature. He actually turned around … And tried to escape.
At this moment, he was no longer a Dark Knight from Gotham; but an ordinary traveler; Even if he had a strong body and extremely high intelligence, even if he had a full set of bat equipment and many black technologies from the DC Universe … He could not live up to the name “Batman.”
Wuwuwuwu
After running a few steps, the fake Wayne fell to the ground. The reason was simple … With his “power” extracted, he couldn’t even move normally in this “fake hell bat armor.”
“Don’t worry, taking back your power … This is just the beginning …” Feng bujue looked at the fake Wayne on the ground who was on the verge of collapse. He closed in on him and continued with a crazed expression.”In the next few years, John (the real name of the Manhattan professor) will slowly fix your influence on this world … Your wife, Halley Quinn, will go crazy because of your ‘disappearance’. The depressed dark side of the pawns would eventually awaken; The two-faced person would be disfigured in another violent incident; Mr. Freeze’s wife would fall sick again, and this time, there was no cure. On the other hand, the Riddler’s illness can heal itself without any medicine …”
“No… No… No!” The fake Wayne’s pupils contracted and his face turned pale. He couldn’t move on the ground, and could only let out a desperate cry.
However, brother Jue would not stop there.”Somewhere in this world, there will be another unfortunate person who will suffer from an atavism disease similar to that of the crocodile killer. There will also be another unscrupulous botanist who will develop a poison that will cause the poison ivy to mutate. A certain Kryptonian, the green light Army, and other alien forces would also come to earth in some form. These were all a matter of time … There was nothing that could not be fixed and reshaped.
“Of course, a new ‘Batman’ is bound to arrive here. He may come from the future, the past, or he may be a person who died and resurrected in some event … Most importantly, he will be the real ‘Bruce Wayne’.”
Feng bujue paused for a moment before he continued.””In short, there is no need for you, a fake Wayne, here … Everything you do is meaningless …”
When brother Jue said that, the fake Wayne on the ground started to change again.
“Ugh … Ugh …” As he wailed, his pale face turned white … It was as white as a bleach, and his strong body quickly became thin.
Feng bujue knew that these changes … Were caused by the ‘miracuo’ and’ hell bat armor ‘.
The mutated form of Miraclo, mirakulu serum (the serum used by villains such as death knell and red arrow), had the side effect of making a person irritable and even have a twisted personality. As for the hell bat armor … Its power was the “user’s life”. The body of the person who wore it for a long time would be corroded.
Now, because his power had been taken back by Dr. Manhattan, the fake Wayne’s body and mind, which had suddenly become weak, were under heavy pressure.
咔–咔–
Brother Jue did not stand by and do nothing. He strode to the man and tore off a few pieces of the man’s armor with his bare hands. Then, he removed the fake Wayne from the armor and threw him on the ground.
“Don’t be afraid … I won’t kill you. ” Then, Feng bujue sat on the man’s back. Now, he only needed to use his weight to suppress this fake Wayne.”I only have … One simple, small request.” He took out a knife from his pocket and waved it in front of the fake Wayne’s frightened face. He continued in a crazy tone,”before … Ha … You asked for my name, but I didn’t answer you because I thought … You actually knew the answer …”
At this moment, the fake Wayne’s mind and body were on the verge of collapse. The last straw that supported his rationality was his instinct, his will to live.
“Come on … Tell me my name.” Feng bujue’s knife was already at the man’s face.
“J-Joker …” The fake Wayne squeezed out the word with a trembling voice.
“Hehe … Hahaha … Hahahaha …” When the word was uttered, Feng bujue threw his head back and laughed madly.
“Current quest completed. Main quest completed.”
“You have completed the scenario. You will be teleported in 180 seconds.”
The system notification that he expected came, but brother Jue had not finished his hidden quest yet. There was still one last step.
After laughing for a whole minute, brother Jue lowered his head again and looked at the fake Wayne. “Don’t make such a sad face. Come … Smile.”
Then, he put the knife into the fake Wayne’s mouth …
He slowly left two cut marks on the sides of the man’s mouth, or rather … He left a permanent “smiling face” on the man’s face.
In the first few seconds of this process, the fake Wayne screamed in pain, but his screams didn’t last long … Because his spirit and mind, in that moment … Finally, completely collapsed.
When the knife reached the fake Wayne’s pale face, he laughed from the bottom of his heart.
