Chapter 2074: Knight's Night of Terror (XVIII)

Peter told Poison Ivy and Gordon about his guess. Gordon hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't know much about magic, but I do know that Batman has a few magic partners, such as Ms. Prince who has been to Gotham before."

"It's definitely too late to go to Metropolis now." Poison Ivy shook her head and said, "Let alone the closure of Gotham Airport, Metropolis has never welcomed Gotham people. We can only pray for the best."

She sighed, thought for a while and said, "What I use is not orthodox magic, but more like God-given power. There are some super criminals who can do magic in Arkham Asylum, but they always come and go without a trace, and it's not easy to find them."

"What about other super heroes who can do magic?"

Peter touched his lower Ba said, "If I had known, I would have copied Batman's address book. I'm afraid we have to go back to Gotham again."

"Batman is looking for you!" Poison Ivy said in a stronger tone, "You also said that this was Batman's original plan, and your actions have completely disrupted the situation. You know what the consequences will be if you are caught by Batman!"

"No, you are wrong. If he finds out what I am doing, he will definitely find that there is no conflict between us at all. I haven't hurt anyone, and we need each other's help now."

"You don't want to go back to find him?!"

"That's exactly what I meant."

Before Batman chased Peter out of Gotham, a new round of riots broke out in Gotham City. It was nothing else, Scarecrow and Penguin fighting.

While Batman was driving the Batmobile to track Peter, he received a message from Nightwing. Scarecrow led the remaining men and fought with Penguin's remaining gangsters on the airship of the Stagg Group on Found Island.

Nightwing heard gunshots on the way to the clock tower, and he knew he had to notify Batman.

Batman drove the Batmobile all the way to Founder Island, and saw the airship of the Stagg Group from a distance. He switched the channel to Stagg's monitoring equipment.

"Klein! You broke the agreement first!" The furious voice of the Penguin appeared in the monitoring channel, "Don't think I don't know, you instructed that kid named Peter Parker to get the evidence of my transaction with the military from Black Mask, you wanted to use this thing to threaten me from the beginning!"

"Don't talk nonsense, Oswald! You sent the military to bomb Gotham, you ruined my plan, you ruined everything!!!" Scarecrow's hysterical shout came out,

"Now you want to take Stagg away again, do you think I will let you succeed?! You have already calculated it, all this is you prying Stagg to betray me! Damn despicable villain!"

Batman's hand on the steering wheel paused, he didn't quite understand what the two parties meant.

Of course, he knew that the Penguin and the Scarecrow had a cooperative relationship to some extent, and he also knew that this group of super criminals had no loyalty at all and would fall out sooner or later.

But now it seems that there is another hidden story.

After Batman reacted, he almost immediately reconnected to the Bat System and monitored all the people who could be monitored.

Not only the Arkham Knight walking on the street, the Scarecrow who occasionally appeared, but also Nightwing and Peter Parker in the Batcave, and all their bases that were either temporarily or permanently stationed.

Peter Parker went to the most secret Nightwing base in Blüdhaven, which did not escape Batman's eyes. Batman almost immediately understood that Peter had other intentions.

He had a set of prevention plans for everyone, including Peter. Spider-sensing was a troublesome thing, but it was not completely impossible to deal with. As long as he prepared early, it would not be difficult to control him.

But there were still too many unexpected things tonight. Perhaps the Joker virus and the fear gas did have some effects. Peter Parker ran away and the original plan could not be implemented. He had to think about what to do next.

But first of all, he had to deal with Scarecrow and Penguin. Batman drove the Batmobile all the way to the airship.

He found that Batman was no longer chasing Peter Parker. The Arkham Knight behind him stopped at the edge of the roof and turned around. He planned to catch Peter Parker himself.

Where would this cunning boy go now? Leaving Gotham City might just be his trick. After a little thought, the Arkham Knight locked the target.

The Arkham Knight knew very well that the disappearance of Barbara, Gordon and Robin was not accidental. This was probably part of Peter Parker's revenge plan. The best target for revenge against Batman was naturally the Bat Family.

So now there is only one member left in the Bat Family.

The Arkham Knight returned to his base. He obviously also had his own monitoring system, and the focus of monitoring was Batman and members of the Bat Family.

Relying on monitoring and his own inferences, the Arkham Knight decided to go to the clock tower. He knew what kind of person Nightwing was. Among all the missing people, he would probably choose to save Barbara first.

To save Barbara, they must return to the clock tower to look for clues. Nightwing is probably there now.

Ten minutes later, the Arkham Knight arrived at the clock tower, but there was only chaos left there.

Arkham Knight found a thin thread on the edge of the collapsed table. It was Peter Parker again, and he was one step ahead of him.

Nightwing was also missing.

Arkham Knight clenched his fists, stood there and took a deep breath, and then slammed them on the table with a bang.

The emotion surrounding him now was no longer anger, but a deep powerlessness - what on earth was Batman doing? How could he tolerate such a betrayal? !

Lamenting his misfortune and being angry at his lack of struggle, Arkham Knight stood there, trying to find clues from his chaotic memory, but his extremely unstable mental state could not support his rational thinking at all.

There were no clues, no clues, he didn't know how all this happened and how it would end.

The past and reality began to overlap, and the future was still unclear.

Finally, this powerlessness and confusion defeated him. After the hot blood on his head cooled down, the source of anger finally showed his true face - fear.

Arkham Knight's body began to tremble constantly. He had to use one hand to support himself on the table, trying to adjust his breathing and heartbeat, but the panic still engulfed him.

He began to fall, began to collapse, crawled on the table and pushed down everything, and then slid to the ground powerlessly.

"Batman... Batman... Where are you?... Batman..."

The Arkham Knight, who had almost completely lost his mind, did not notice that a small red slime tentacle pressed the button of the communication equipment on his arm, and even adjusted the channel considerately.

"Batman... Where are you..."

When Jason's voice came from the communicator, Batman thought he had hallucinations again.

No, it's not a hallucination!

Batman suddenly realized that he looked at his communicator in shock, and even played the recording in vain - it was really not a hallucination!

"Jason... Jason... Jason Todd!!!"

Batman began to roar, and the phantom of the Joker appeared again, but in an instant, Jason's voice from the communicator interrupted all hallucinations.

"I'm here... Batman..."

The eyes of the Arkham Knight lying on the ground were red again, and the mucus kept surging. The parasite that could see all his memories conveyed his true thoughts with his voice.

"I'm in pain, I'm scared, I'm not special to you, so you won't come to save me..."

"No... no, Jason, Jason, I'm looking for you, I've been looking for you, tell me where you are now!!"

"No matter how much I believed in you, how much you disappointed me, I will trust you again, and think of you first in my most critical moment, Batman..."

The Arkham Knight's eyes slowly closed, and his consciousness sank into darkness again, and this was a rare good night's sleep for him, without pain, only peace.

When he woke up again, he saw the familiar prison bars of the Batcave, and at the same time heard a noisy noise in his ears.

"I never thought you were a coward, Klein. Ha, now it's all right?! We've all been caught here by Batman! Are you happy?"

"Oswald, you idiot, I can't imagine how your stupid brain made such a wrong choice! You've trapped us all!"

"It was you who did it first..."

"Shut up!" Arkham Knight shouted, covering his head: "You two idiots, shut up!"

The vision finally became clear. He looked to both sides. Scarecrow was imprisoned on the left and Penguin was imprisoned on the right.

Accompanied by the hissing exhaust sound, the gate opened. The moment a dark figure walked in, the atmosphere was silent and solidified.

"Do you feel something is wrong?" Scarecrow lowered his voice and said, "I didn't send anyone to kill Black Mask. I was busy burying the fear gas at that time. Anyone with a little brains knows that the timeline doesn't match."

"I didn't send the military to bomb Gotham. Do you think I'm stupid? This is my home, my base. If it's blown up, how can I do business and make money?"

Scarecrow and Penguin looked at each other from a distance, and they all realized that something was wrong. Why did the two of them fight?

It's true that they each had their own ulterior motives and there was no mercy to talk about, but the previous plans went smoothly, and there was no need to betray each other. Even in the end, there was no crisis that had to be betrayed to survive.

"Jason." Batman stood outside the cage door of Arkham Knight and looked at him, shouting, "Take off your mask."

Arkham Knight knelt on the ground and looked at him coldly, without any intention of moving.

"Let me see your face, Jason."

Long silence.

Then, the Arkham Knight seemed to have given up on himself, and tore off his head armor, revealing his face.

There was a very obvious J-shaped scar on it.

Batman's lips tightened instantly, and he knew that what he saw in the hallucination was real.

Jason turned his head to one side. He knew what Batman would say - he shouldn't leave without saying goodbye, he shouldn't disappear without his equipment or communicator, he shouldn't go to dangerous areas, he should follow the arrangements, not go anywhere, and stay in the Batcave without danger.

"... I didn't find you."

Jason raised his head in shock, looking at Batman's expression in disbelief. He never thought he could see such a complicated expression on this man's face.

"I searched all the districts, every street, every room, every place you might go, as well as Metropolis, Blüdhaven... but you're not there."

Jason clenched his fists tightly, his body stiff as if he was using all his strength to support the muscles on his face to prevent them from collapsing.

"He hid me, he won't let you find me."

"I'm sorry."

Jason raised his head in shock again, and then found that Batman was also using all his strength to support the muscles on his face. Both of them were as stiff as stone statues.

And Jason never felt that he was so similar to Batman.

"No... Wait!!!!"

Scarecrow grabbed the bars of the cell and screamed.

"He is your Robin?!!!" Scarecrow looked at Batman in disbelief and shouted: "Everything is your conspiracy?!!!"

"Wait a minute." Penguin also reacted, "So Peter Parker is also... God!! He opened a hole in my chest and forced me to admit... Batman!!!!"

Just as Scarecrow and Penguin screamed at the same time, a figure fell behind Batman.

Peter Parker, wearing a spider uniform, waved to Batman and said, "I'm sorry, but I need your help again, Batman."

Jason was also shocked.

How could Peter Parker, a traitor, come back to Batman? ! He didn't want to deceive Batman in person? !

Wait, he deceived Batman, didn't he?

At this time, Jason reacted-the two of them didn't collude, right? !

Jason was stunned for a moment, then looked at the scarecrow on the left, the Penguin on the right, and himself in the middle.

Aren't all the culprits of the fear gas disaster here?

He knew it! How could Batman be so easily deceived!

Jason roared in his heart, and then the three of them roared almost at the same time.

"Batman! You despicable villain!!!"

At this time, a greedy and anxious voice sounded in Peter's ears: "Throw the blame! Throw the blame quickly! Peter!"

Peter was stunned for less than half a second, and then swooped behind Batman, pointing at him and said.

"That's right, Batman asked me to do this, it was all his ingenuity!"

At this moment, Peter fully recalled the fabrication skills that Dr. Schiller had taught him.

Without waiting for Batman to react, Peter immediately stepped forward and vividly described the evil plan of Batman in a messy version.

Process points!
