Chapter 2504: Battle for the Cloak (34)

Chapter 2478: The Battle for the Cape (Thirty-four)

The vines lifted Batman's cape and put him on the ground. Poison Ivy jumped down from the roof and stood in front of Batman. She straightened her clothes and put one hand on her waist and said, "Why are you wearing this old-fashioned outfit again? Where is your armor?"

"I'm not the Batman of this universe." Batman denied. He said, "The Batman of your universe is not dead either, but he needs to rest. I have to go to the hospital to take a look."

"No, you'd better not go in." Poison Ivy said, "There is a terrible thing in here. I finally tricked those crazy plants here. If you get stuck in it, don't blame me for not warning you."

"Horrible thing? What is that?" Batman frowned slightly.

"A vortex." Poison Ivy looked back at the hospital building and said with lingering fear: "In fact, I don't know what it is. The rooms and corridors of this hospital form a huge vortex that can attract everything around. Once you enter it, you can never get out."

Batman thought of his previous experience of running for his life in a snail shell and those strange-shaped street lights. He said: "Is the vortex a very special image?"

"I don't understand these weird things." Poison Ivy shook her head and said: "But I know that it is a very eye-catching pattern. I can't take my eyes off them when I see them. Maybe this is also special."

"Of course, this is very special." Batman did not deny it. He remembered the curtains that turned into vortex patterns when he climbed up to the balcony. It was indeed eye-catching enough. The sight would unconsciously glance up, and staring at them for a long time would be a little distracted.

Those eyes... Batman thought of the eyes he had seen in the thick fog before, and speculated that if he stayed in one place for too long, there would be more and more eyes, and they would most likely attack them. Was the hallucination he had just fallen into an attack by the eyes?

But this attack didn't seem to be very powerful, Batman thought, it just dragged him into the hallucination and made him fall from the upstairs, but it also gave him some information.

Batman guessed that the town he saw in the hallucination might be the origin of the vortex, and the spiral-like black smoke in the sky might also be the starting point of the vortex.

After finishing his recollection, Batman looked at Poison Ivy and said, "It looks like you're in some trouble."

"Nothing can be hidden from you." Poison Ivy shrugged and said, "I was attacked crazily by plants contaminated by some power. Fortunately, I found such a good place and temporarily solved them, but..."

Poison Ivy turned her head to look at the lawn, and Batman followed her line of sight. He only saw the grass on the lawn turning around, and the whole scene was weird and terrifying.

The two of them walked to the back of the hospital together. Batman wanted to take Arkham Batman to the portal because Arkham Batman had arranged protective measures near the portal. He knew something about it and could help Batman deal with some unexpected situations.

But if they could get help from Poison Ivy now, the two of them could go. In the final analysis, Batman thought that the portal was too strange and he was not sure of winning alone.

Talking about the portal, Poison Ivy had something to say. She talked about how she activated the portal, and then complained, "If it weren't for you master and apprentice... I mean, the Batman of this universe and that damn Spider-Man, how could I have taken such measures? Now I have no neurotoxins and am being hunted by a group of crazy plants. Don't think that he can avoid compensation by pretending to be dead."

"We'll talk about the compensation later." Batman said soothingly. In fact, he didn't care about giving Poison Ivy some compensation. After all, Spider-Man really used the neurotoxin. As the culprit who brought Spider-Man to this universe, it was normal for Arkham Batman to pay some money.

"You said that the source of the dark power exploded and became a portal, which means that the other party was deliberate and prepared."

"Who said it wasn't?" Poison Ivy tapped her cheek with her finger and said thoughtfully: "I have to admit that the little bastard named Robin King tricked me once. If he fell into my hands..."

Poison Ivy's voice became more and more gloomy, but Batman was thinking about another question. According to Arkham Batman, he led Robin King here, and Robin King's target should only be him.

Judging from Robin King's strength, it is not difficult for him to open a portal, so why did he open it in this way? Just to attract Poison Ivy to join the game?

But what good does this do for him? Not to mention that if you don't make a bunch of crazy plants to chase Poison Ivy, Poison Ivy may not help Batman. Your target is Bruce Wayne, who is currently the president. Why didn't you open the portal in Washington, but must you open it in Gotham?

Batman always felt that there were many doubts in this, and the only explanation he could think of was that King Robin was not actually the mastermind behind the combination of the Joker and Batman.

Robin King behaved a bit like him, so Batman initially suspected him, or even the biggest suspect, because he was a Batman, but he was always laughing crazily.

But judging from his current performance, Batman thought he didn't have the brain to plan this conspiracy, and he didn't fully understand how he came here and what he was doing, which meant he was just a tool, and there was someone else behind the scenes.

After figuring this out, it might not be that simple to look at the portal again. Batman thought for a while, this must be another foreshadowing of the mastermind, and he had to go and see what was going on.

"I know what you want to do. That bastard owes me one." Poison Ivy gritted her teeth, the hatred and madness in her eyes reached a peak, "I will definitely catch him and turn him into fertilizer for my flowers."

In the lounge of the clock tower, Spider-Man pressed his chin against the base of his palm, and his pair of spider compound eyes opened and closed, closed and opened again. After a while, he adjusted his posture on the chair, stretched his arms and stretched his waist, yawned, and sighed.

Others come to Gotham to either fight villains or adventure with the Bat Family, but I am fine. My first task here is to take care of a seriously ill patient.

It's called care, but there's actually nothing to take care of. Arkham Knight has been sleeping all the time. Sometimes he wakes up hazily, but there's no movement. Spider-Man will feed him some water at this time, but there's actually no need, because he's been hanging glucose and is not short of water.

Spider-Man is young and still in school. It's the time when he needs sleep. He has been sitting here for a long time and is already very sleepy. Barbara is still typing on the computer next to him. The sound of the keyboard is even more hypnotic.

After a while, the spider's compound eyes closed completely. When he opened his eyes again, Spider-Man found himself lying in the bathtub.

"Peter... Peter! Why did you take such a long bath again? Stop playing with toys in the bathtub, come out and eat!"

Aunt May's voice came from outside the door. Spider-Man was a little confused. When he lowered his head, he saw the little duck floating in his bathtub.

Was he dreaming? Or was the experience of going to Gotham a dream? Spider-Man was a little confused.

Intellectually, Spider-Man was more inclined to the latter. He was an ordinary student and just an ordinary Spider-Man in Spider-Man. How could he have such a magical adventure? If it was a dream, it would make sense.

Spider-Man sighed, rubbed his wet hair, gradually slid into the bathtub, and spit out a few bubbles with his mouth.

Anyway, it was still a bit unwilling, but what could he do? It would be better to think about how to deal with those big guys in school tomorrow.

Thinking about it, Spider-Man was getting more and more annoyed. His aunt would never understand that he liked to stay in the bathroom because watching the ducklings floating in the bathtub was a rare moment of relaxation for him.

At this time, he could empty his mind and not think about the trivialities in life. It can be said that this was the happiest time since he entered high school.

Spider-Man fiddled with the ducklings as usual when he took a bath, thinking about some messy things in his mind. Suddenly, he thought of an advertisement he saw on the street a few days ago. The company that produced this kind of ducklings launched a new version.

Thinking about this, Spider-Man set his sights on the ducklings in the bathtub, but at this moment he found that the eyes of the little yellow duck in the bathtub began to flash red and made a beeping sound.

Spider-Man suddenly turned over and rushed out of the bathtub with his spider sense. As soon as his back touched the door, there was a bang, and the duck in the bathtub exploded.

The water in the bathtub was drizzling, and Spider-Man was soaked. When Aunt May heard the noise and opened the door, they were both stunned.

As a result, Spider-Man was scolded. He had to go back to his room to reflect on himself. Aunt May would send his meal over.

Spider-Man returned to his room dejectedly. He couldn't figure out why his bathtub duck exploded, but as soon as his buttocks stuck to the mattress, he felt hungry. The smell of food came from outside the door.

Fortunately, Aunt May quickly brought the food over. Spider-Man put the food on the table and wanted to eat, but he thought about it and decided to change his clothes first so that he could go out immediately after dinner. He had to buy a new bathtub duck. The Christmas version would be good.

Spider-Man walked to the closet, and as soon as he opened the door, two pairs of terrified eyes met, and he and Arkham Knight were both stunned.

It was not accurate to say that he was Arkham Knight, because the Arkham Knight in the closet was not wearing his armor, so he was now Jason Todd, and the only difference from other Jasons was the "J"-shaped scar on his face.

"Why are you here?!!!" The two said in unison.

"I wanted to ask you this question!!" They said in unison again.

Spider-Man quickly stepped back to let Jason come out. Jason was a little confused after he came out, and he and Spider-Man stared at each other.

"This is my home." Spider-Man emphasized, he pointed back at the bed and said, "This is my bed, over there is my food, and over here is my pajamas, so why are you in my closet?!"

"I..." Jason frowned deeply and said, "I remember I was being chased by something, I kept running, pushed open a door, and then... then I was in your house???"
