Chapter 1992 U Transcendence Event (Part 83)
Chapter 1966 U Beyond Event (Eighty-three)
After just two sentences, Batman found that the man opposite him was stunned, and he was not stunned by anything in the real world, but he was just in a daze as if he suddenly thought of something.
This was very abnormal, Batman frowned even deeper, even an ordinary person would not be so easily distracted in a dangerous environment, just meeting a stranger and starting to think about random things in his mind, not paying attention to the changes in the real situation, how could he survive until now.
Unless there is something in his mind.
"You idiot, come back to your senses quickly, he has already seen it." Venom's angry and anxious tone sounded in Eddie's mind: "He has already discovered me, don't try to deny it, just don't reply."
"Who are you talking to?" Batman asked.
"This has nothing to do with you." Eddie took two steps back and said, "You have the fragments in your hand, right? I also got my share, and there is no second copy. You'd better stay away from me."
After saying that, Eddie wanted to retreat to the corner and then turned to leave, but Batman stopped him and said, "You saw the magic circle."
Eddie's figure was obviously stiff, he shook his head and said, "I don't know what you are talking about."
"You have seen the magic circle engraved on the wall over there, and you have seen something else."
Eddie stared at Batman and said, "I said I don't know what you are talking about. You'd better not bother me. My teammates will be here soon."
After saying that, he still wanted to leave, but Batman said, "You have no teammates, you are only one person."
As soon as Eddie opened his mouth, Batman said before him, "There is another life form in your body. You are counted as two individuals, so you are a team by yourself, and you have no other helpers."
Eddie stared at him with wide eyes.
"The priest cannot attack anyone. No matter who is the priest between you and the mysterious creature, it means that you two have no ability to attack others. You know how much disadvantage this will bring to you."
"What do you want to do?" Eddie lowered his center of gravity slightly and made a gesture of wanting to attack.
"Don't be nervous. I'm saying that we can cooperate." Batman threw out the most important chip. He said: "The rules never say that you can win by killing everyone. Anyone with a little bit of brains can think that this rule is leading us to kill each other, and this game is called unity."
Eddie's shoulders relaxed slightly, but he still stared at Batman tightly, without showing any wavering gesture.
"Nevertheless, not everyone is smart. There will definitely be contestants who will interpret this as a massacre. If you are unlucky enough to meet such a person, the chance of survival is very low."
"But I am different from them. I know that the key to this game may be the secret behind the thick fog. If you can provide me with enough information, I can escort you for a while, or let you find a safe place to hide. Once I find a way to pass the level, you can also leave."
Eddie seemed to be a little tempted. As soon as he was distracted, three bat darts flashing with cold light passed by his ears. Eddie was startled and glared at Batman fiercely.
Batman looked at him and said, "If you don't give me information, I won't let you leave. You know that the best choice is to cooperate."
Eddie immediately showed a tangled expression, wanting to move but not daring to, but soon he said helplessly, "I don't have any information to provide you, I'm not a great detective."
"You must have seen something." Batman said very confidently, "Tell me what you know about the magic circle."
Eddie stood there hesitantly, then sighed and said, "I saw two people standing in front of the magic circle for a while."
The onlookers in the screening room immediately became nervous. Could this man named Eddie have seen the conversation between Schiller and Loki?
"One of them was wearing a long robe and holding a staff inlaid with gems." Eddie recalled while rolling his eyes: "He had black hair and could not see the color of his eyes, but his hands glowed."
"How did he appear?"
"I didn't see him, but they disappeared soon after they left."
"What about the other one?"
"It was a young man wearing a white sweater. There was nothing special about him except that he was very handsome. He had black hair and blue eyes."
"Did you hear what they said?"
"I was hiding on the roof at the time. The wind was a bit strong. It seemed that they were talking about magic runes or something. The two of them reached a cooperation and said that they would work together to find clues to these patterns. I didn't hear anything else."
Batman took a step forward, and Eddie froze again. He stood there and shouted: "Don't come over. You look like an antisocial lunatic."
Batman didn't care, and continued: "You saw more than that, right? Let's do this. I said I would protect your safety, and I will definitely fulfill it. Let's talk while walking. Where are you going?"
"I don't know either." Eddie lowered his head, spread his hands and said, "I haven't even figured out the rules yet. I just want to find a safe place to stay first."
"When I came here, I encountered a tall building on the road. The collapse was not very serious. The underground parking lot should be a good place to go."
Eddie paused and began to be absent-minded again, as if he was listening to the opinions of the creature in his mind. When he came to his senses, he walked towards Batman without hesitation.
"Is he smarter than you?" Batman asked.
"Not really..."
"That's right, he's a damn idiot. I'm probably 10 million times smarter than him."
Even Batman was startled by the sudden hoarse and evil voice. The moment he turned his head to look at Eddie, he saw a dark ghost face and a mouth full of sharp fangs.
Batman immediately became alert, and his hand was already touching the electric shock device at his waist.
"No, wait a minute." Eddie seemed to be able to deal with this situation very skillfully. He immediately took two steps back, stretched out his hands and said, "His name is Venom, he's just a little ugly, believe me, he's not a bad guy."
"Oh my God, Venom, stop it, otherwise we'll all die...Okay, okay, you're not ugly, you're the most handsome symbiote in the world, okay?"
Batman saw Eddie fighting with his left and right, falling to the left and rushing to the right. After fighting with the air for a long time, he let out a breath and put his hands on his knees to breathe.
"Sorry, he's a little disobedient, but please believe that he's a rational, communicative intelligent life, not an evil villain, and he's indeed smarter than me. He thinks you're trustworthy, so let's go."
Batman hesitated a little.
But at this time Eddie sighed and said, "I did see something else, but it's a bit weird. I didn't tell you because I was afraid you wouldn't believe it. He said he could tell you. Maybe you can figure out something. If you want to hear it, let's talk while walking."
Batman still walked forward with Eddie. He turned his head and looked at Eddie and said, "We all came here to participate in the game. What else is impossible? Tell me what you saw."
"Have you seen other magic circles?" Eddie asked.
Batman nodded, but didn't say much.
"Then do you know how they appeared?"
Batman shook his head, then looked at Eddie with an inquiring look. Eddie sighed and said, "To be honest, I found my totem fragments in the building with the magic circle."
Batman immediately perked up, because if that was the case, Eddie was definitely the first one to come to this building among all the people, and he might have come before the magic circle appeared.
"I saw a dark red light." Eddie said hesitantly, "It's a bit like the color of the arrow pointing to the totem pole fragment on the map and the red light emitted from the location of the totem pole."
"Then the magic circle appeared?"
"I didn't see the specific process of its appearance." Eddie shook his head slightly and said, "But there was nothing there originally. After the red light disappeared, I went out to see a huge magic circle there."
"Where did the red light come from?" Batman asked a key question.
This time Eddie was silent for a longer time, but in the end he said, "From underground, from underground."
The theater exploded again.
"Isn't that pattern drawn by Professor Schiller? Where does the red light come from? Could Schiller also know magic?" Nightwing said in surprise.
"I guess it might be a trick. The red light has nothing to do with the magic circle, but Professor Schiller took some measures to make this man named Eddie think they are related." Red Robin speculated.
Peter pushed his glasses and said, "Let's watch the playback."
The camera was fixed on the profiles of the two people, and the scene began to rapidly reverse. The next second, the two faces on the screen became Eddie and Schiller.
"Long time no see, how are you doing recently? Eddie, have you been to the psychological examination regularly?"
Eddie, who had just gone upstairs, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Doctor, you don't have to be so anxious to prove your identity. Who else would ask us to do a psychological evaluation besides you?"
"I'm doing this for your own good."
"You're doing this for Nick's financial statements." Eddie laughed, walked up and patted Schiller's arm and said, "What are you doing here? Isn't your birthplace far from here?"
"That's not the case. I just came here. Listen, I have a plan that requires your cooperation..."
Everyone in the screening room was silent.
"So these are all his acquaintances?!" Red Robin said in disbelief: "Even if they are acquaintances, we should be wary of criminals who imitate others, right?"
"But I'm afraid that apart from Dr. Schiller, no one will urge them to do psychological evaluation every day." Peter shrugged and said: "This is the best anti-counterfeiting mark."
"I am increasingly confused about what he is doing." Red Hood pursed his lips and said: "What's the benefit of joining forces with others to deceive Batman?"
Jack suddenly laughed breathlessly, choked himself after a while, coughed a few times and said: "Although I think he may just think it's funny, but no one knows Batman better than him."
The Batman next to him turned his head and looked at him again. Jack turned his head and raised his eyebrows and said: "Bats are very mysterious creatures, but not so mysterious. The one who knows Batman best is always the Joker."
"Usually, the Joker's biggest dream is to play games with Batman, but if the Joker is more greedy, he can actually do more with Batman."
On the screen, Batman has been with Eddie Arriving at the parking lot under the building, Eddie looked around the surrounding environment, sighed and said, "You are right, my partner and I are in some trouble, and the best option now is to hide until the game is over."
"But I hope you can not tell anyone where I am hiding, I will stay here for a while, if you can win, then go ahead, I will wait for you here."
"No." Batman suddenly shook his head and said, "You said that the red light came from underground, so I must go down to explore, the two of us go together."
"Took the bait." Venom said in Eddie's mind.
