In The DC World With Marvel Chat Group Chapter 1472: Bird and return (17)

Damian Wayne first appeared in "Batman: Son of the Devil", but this is not to say that his race is a demon or has any deep connection with the so-called demons in the occult world. The demons here are just a Adjectives only.

After the restart of New 52, ​​the history of the Teen Titans has changed. Before the big event, they did not have much intersection with the Dark Justice League or the occult world, so this is the first time Damian has seen the real of demons.

There is a kind of shocking evil and terror in the power of demons, which is the talent of the demon race, but unlike Red Hood and Red Robin who just saw the demon for the first time, there is something deep in the soul. Unlike the fear and rejection here, Damian has deep doubts after the initial shock.

Did he read it wrong? Why did the demon force a smile after seeing Bruce? Why did the unscrupulous evil power that was originally surrounding me withdraw in an instant?

After breaking away from the majestic energy surrounding and the raging **** flames extinguished, the demon looked... a bit like a goat cub.

It’s really not that Damian deliberately belittled him, the fact is that the demon standing in the middle of the room is an upright black goat after removing those fancy special effects, only slightly bigger than the goats on the earth, but never Judging from the development of the goat's horns and hooves, I'm afraid it's still a lamb.

Red Hood and Red Robin also breathed a sigh of relief, Red Hood walked over with Red Robin, looked at Bruce Wayne and asked: "My God, Batman, what the **** is going on? What's going on?!"

"This hospital, the homicide in the hospital, the messy corpse, the heart of the sinner, the anatomy class, and this... sorry?"

"Jeru is a black demon, that is, a demon whose body is a black goat that is often mentioned in human myths and legends."

"Okay, black devil, what are you doing?"

Red Hood actually didn't say a word, that's why compared with the chilling stumps of these horrific serial killers, and the demon itself, which represents the most primitive fear of human beings, he always feels What is more evil than what they are doing now?

"I will tell you the truth, but preferably after everything is over." Bruce said.

The devil agreed to Bruce's condition almost tremblingly, and when he left with two boxes, he panicked as if he was fleeing.

Constantine and Harley went to the next room to share the bill. Bruce asked Deathstroke to charge the Wayne Group this time, and the mercenary left satisfied.

Red Hood took a step forward, and just as he was about to ask, Bruce waved to them and said, "Let's go to the office upstairs to talk."

"But outside..."

"I have a dedicated elevator."

Bruce held Damian in his arms, and Red Hood and Red Robin followed him to an office upstairs.

Red Robin sat down on the sofa and saw Bruce approaching. He thought Bruce would sit opposite him, but unexpectedly, Bruce pushed away the tea table in front of him and half-kneeled in front of him to check his legs on the wound.

Red Robin took a deep breath, and just as he was about to speak, Bruce asked without looking up: "You should already understand part of what I'm doing, right?"

Red Robin was silent for a while, but still expressed his inference.

"If I understand correctly, you built a psychiatric hospital, gathered villains and murderers from all over the world, used the corpses of gangsters to provide them with research materials, and then used these murderers to dig out the corpses The organs in them are sold to the demons who need them.”

Bruce nodded, he still maintained a half-kneeling posture, but raised his eyes to look at Red Robin, and when he met those blue eyes, Red Robin's heart skipped a beat .

He saw appreciation in Batman's eyes.

He should be appreciated, shouldn't he? Red Robin thought this way, they strayed into an unfamiliar environment, and were hunted by serial killers, he suffered the most serious injuries, but he was the only one of the three who could still think calmly, he should be worthy of this Appreciate.

But Red Robin still feels unbelievable. He never thought that he was the one who could get special treatment from Batman, because he was not special enough at all, at least he thought so.

He doesn't have the same long-term closeness as Nightwing and Batman, he doesn't have the blood relationship with Batman like Damian, and he doesn't make Batman feel guilty like Red Hood, he is even among all Robins. The one who retreated, he still has his parents and family.

Tim always feels that he and Batman are separated by a barrier that is difficult for ordinary people to see. They are a little strange in their kindness, and a little polite in their familiarity.

Tim is not at all sure what he really is in Batman's heart, if his intelligence can really make Batman who is also intelligent recognize and love him more, then why has he never received any special status? express?

But now he gets it, because of his intelligence, because the only thing he and Batman have in common, Batman admits that intelligence is what they have in common.

This is like an anchor, bringing an unparalleled sense of security, and even Tim can't feel the pain of the wound.

"You're smart," he heard Batman say.

Tim even thinks the wound should hurt a little more so he can sit here and watch Batman observe his wound for a little longer.

It's hopeless, Tim knows that, but he can't help himself.

Then, Bruce opened his mouth again, and another kind of shock and surprise burst from Red Robin's heart, could he continue to discuss this topic with Batman? Wouldn't his attention be diverted to other people?

Could he even hear Batman's deeper analysis, get guidance that no one else has?

"You have only seen half of this industrial chain, or maybe a third... Do you know what the soul dust that the devil can provide is used for?"

Imagination turned into reality, and Red Robin knew that Batman didn't want to answer, but wanted to explain to him. He would get Batman's explanation today, and it was an explanation for him alone.

The words echoed in Red Robin's mind, preventing him from thinking about anything else until Bruce's voice came again.

"There is a meandering river in hell, the souls torn to pieces in the long torment will eventually flow into this river, and the sand and gravel in this river will grind the souls into the most primitive energy , to return to the origin of the universe, which is the final destination of the vast majority of villains."

"Soul dust is the most delicate gravel in the river. Because it has been polishing all kinds of souls for thousands of years, it has many magical properties. They can settle in the complete human soul, Adds to the weight of the human soul.”

"When men die, the dust of their souls begins to grind their souls, retaining the most quintessential sins and good deeds in their organs."

Red Robin began to feel chills all over his body. Every scene he experienced in the New Arkham Psychiatric Hospital kept replaying in his mind. His memory far beyond ordinary people and his talent as a detective allowed him to recall every detail. .

Countless fragments were connected into lines in his mind, and he seemed to be a giant standing in the sky above Gotham, overlooking all living beings on the ground.

He knew that it was his gift of deduction that gave him the perspective of the great planner, that of Batman.

Thus, Red Robin began to narrate the matter from such a perspective, and his voice attracted the attention of both Red Hood standing by the window and Damian who was leaning on the sofa.

"Gotham is the place where human crimes gather." There was a strange tremor in Red Robin's voice, which was not fear, but more like excitement.

"There has never been any city as sinful as this place. The sinners shaped by the continuous sin cannot be exterminated. When they flow out of the warm lake in the mother's belly, they are destined to flow into the river of hell."

"These souls shouldn't be wasted like this, I thought... so I built a ranch and let all the lunatics who committed great crimes come here, not only to control them, but also to shepherd them, with luxurious Buildings, abundant resources, and abundant death feed them."

Red Robin looked up, and he saw Bruce's hopeful eyes. Bruce's hand was on his knee, which was a sign of pressure, but Red Robin was ecstatic about it.

Batman is waiting for his answer, Batman is desperate for his understanding, Batman is... loving him.

He trembled uncontrollably, his Adam's apple moved up and down, and he spit out a sentence: "And, and soul dust... I feed them with gravel from the river of hell."

"All the sins in their body will be settled in the soul, and will be washed and polished by the grit of the soul dust, becoming more and more heavy and refined—extreme sin is another kind of treasure."

Bruce was still half-kneeling on the ground, but stretched out his hand upwards, and wiped away the dust and blood on Red Robin's face with his fingers.

Red Robin trembled all over, as if he was about to cry, not because of the touch brought by this closeness, but because of the fear from the heart and the uncontrollable joy that accompanied it, he was almost forcing Continue to say it yourself.

"I know who needs this kind of treasure-the devils of **** are always seeking sin, and they even spend years in people's dreams, luring them to continue sinning, just to get a soul full of crimes. "

"Since they regard sin as a treasure, I will exchange them with a lamb that I have fed with my own hands. I hold the reins of the most precious lamb in this world ~IndoMTL.com~ So the devil will also worship me , pray to me for a gift."

"This darkness is already a rare and precious treasure to me. Now, I bring you here so that my devout believers can see this miracle--I want them to understand me, respect me, and let them see me. ...love me."

After uttering the last sentence, Red Robin curled up weakly as if he had lost all his strength.

Bruce finally gets up, but then bends down to hug him again, and Tim feels unspeakably relieved in Batman's arms.

Robins always think that Batman is an omnipotent **** intellectually, but they must accept emotionally that he is a person who makes mistakes, and the pain comes with this contradiction.

But when they recognize and understand that a Batman is the great Patriarch far away and unattainable, all feelings become "convictions" and all uncertainty and self-doubt can be left behind , the world becomes simple and pure.

Gotham has gathered the evils of the entire universe, and the culprit who spread the darkness here would never have imagined that after the once angry baby bat spread its bat wings, it would use the bat that descended from Gotham in an even more terrifying posture. The rain of sin fed fat lambs and sold them for a good price.

When Red Robin's breathing became more and more stable, the three Robins seemed to see the huge and terrifying bat wings stretching out from Bruce's back, covering not only the dark room, but also the Over the entire city, over the entire world.

They knew now that they had to respect him because he was Batman.

Also because this Batman has found a twisted, terrifying but effective solution to the world's deepest madness, and he's more mad than mad.
