"What's going on in Metropolis right now? I noticed that violent crime here doesn't seem to be as frequent as in Gotham, but the evil atmosphere hanging over the entire city is just as bad."
Zuo Si looked at the scenery on the artificial beach in the distance with interest and asked in an uncertain tone.
Since this artificial island is entirely made up of luxury villas built for the rich, the beach is basically filled with sexy bikini girls or young men with bare upper bodies showing off their muscular bodies.
The people they serve include wealthy people ranging from those in their thirties to those in their sixties and seventies.
If the latter takes a fancy to someone, he only needs to wave his hand, and the former will immediately come up to him with a flattering smile like a servant.
Moreover, you can see many guys patrolling around wearing black suits and with bulges around their waists, probably carrying guns.
However, they are not bodyguards, but managers of bikini girls and bodybuilders.
If anyone tries to escape or fails to provide service properly, they will be taken away for "interview" the next second.
When they are sent back, their eyes are basically filled with fear and despair. They can only completely give up their self-esteem and personality and become special "commodities" put on the shelves.
Yes, their position here is not human beings, but commodities and toys for rich people to choose.
There are even many teenagers or even children who specialize in satisfying certain perverted desires.
It's easy to tell that this business involves crimes such as kidnapping, abduction and illegal human trafficking.
And the one who runs it cannot be a formal company, but an organization with mafia or gang characteristics.
As Bruce Wayne mentioned, since Superman disappeared, all the monsters and demons that were previously suppressed and dared not move in the entire metropolis have emerged.
Driven by the profit-seeking nature of capitalism, laws, morals, and bottom lines are all bullshit. The only thing that matters is seizing new tracks, quickly accumulating wealth, and becoming a superior person.
Since most of the "legal" money-making businesses are basically monopolized by big capital and big conglomerates that have already occupied the dominant ecological niche, latecomers can only open the Criminal Law to find some alternative ways.
The fact that business like forcing minors to engage in prostitution can be carried out in broad daylight and the police patrolling not far away completely turn a blind eye to it shows how bad the public security and rule of law situation is in this city right now.
The law enforcement system, in particular, has been almost infiltrated like a sieve by criminals.
It is estimated that most of the good policemen with conscience are either dragged into corruption, framed by colleagues who accept bribes and sent to prison, or simply killed secretly.
All those who stayed behind chose to go along with the crowd without exception.
Facts have proven that only low-level criminals would choose to compete with law enforcement agencies, deliberately using threats, intimidation, kidnapping and other means to appear powerful.
The truly first-class and well-organized criminals are those who corrupt law enforcement agencies directly from the root, making them their good helpers, rather than having the sword of Damocles hanging over their heads that may fall at any time.
You have to know that once the administrative and judicial systems of a region are completely corrupt, there is basically no way to restore them to normal except to use the army to carry out a large-scale purge.
Gotham is a living example.
“Violent crime? Hahahaha!
The godfathers of Metropolis are not the peasants in Gotham who have worked their way up from the lowest levels of the slums.
Some of them are retired sheriffs with insatiable greed, while others are dirty politicians who failed in elections.
These people look down upon the petty tricks of occupying land and collecting protection fees. From the very beginning, they have been targeting entertainment venues such as casinos and nightclubs, as well as various taboos that are not permitted by law.
Relying on the network of relationships they had established in the past and acting as white gloves for those bigwigs, they easily built up a huge industry that might have taken several years or even more than ten years to develop in Gotham.
It has even made great strides into areas such as real estate, film and television entertainment, the Internet, and news media.
So the biggest difference between the crimes in Metropolis and Gotham is that the crimes here are usually more covert and elegant.
They don't rush into a store with baseball bats and smash everything, sending the owner and clerk to the hospital, or pull out a gun and put it to someone's head to declare who owns the block.
That's something only Gotham gangsters would do.
Just the opposite!
Criminal organizations in the metropolis would directly choose to call the police and then let those policemen who accept bribes to help them solve the problems.
So here you won't see Gotham-style robberies and gang fights, nor will you see gang leaders parading around the city with their minions.
All you see is a bunch of well-dressed scoundrels taking advantage of a thoroughly corrupt judicial system."
Batman speaks directly to the unique criminal ecology of Metropolis.
If Gotham's criminal ecology model is compared to a primitive industrial assembly line that still uses manual labor, then the criminal ecology of the metropolis is a typical example of an advanced assembly line that has completed industrial upgrading and entered information-based and automated production, highlighting "professionalism" from beginning to end.
A situation like in Gotham, where a gang boss or his capable subordinates work part-time to run and manage restaurants, nightclubs, or pubs, will never happen in Metropolis.
Because the highly educated godfathers here prefer to hire a professional as a manager and ensure that no one will be associated with crime in the places they run.
Most of the time, the only illegal business these legal establishments engage in is money laundering.
"oh?
No wonder Bruce Wayne left Metropolis to you, preferring to rule Gotham himself.
It turns out that fighting crime here is extremely difficult from hell.
At least that's the case for someone who would rather go through the judicial process to be convicted.
Looks like there will be some fun to come once Superman is resurrected.
I am very curious whether he will throw away his original moral burden and go on a killing spree after being provoked, or leave the city sadly and return to the countryside to become a farmer.
If it's the latter, it's really boring."
Zuo Si's tone clearly implies that he was looking forward to watching the fun and not worrying about any more trouble.
The Bat Demon spread his hands nonchalantly and said, "It doesn't matter what happens.
Anyway, with Superman's character and the education he received since childhood, even if he really went crazy, he would never destroy this city or even the entire earth.
Because he had personally destroyed General Zod, who was trying to revive the Kryptonian civilization, and had long since become a homeless orphan.
The earth is his final home.
But it's interesting to think that he might become a tyrant who rules the earth by sheer force.
I believe that by that time, Bruce Wayne's reaction will be very, very interesting.
Because he was the one who planned to kill this god on earth, and then he personally resurrected him."
"Haha, you're right. I believe the scene will be quite exciting. Well, let's stop chatting here. I won't disturb you from enjoying life. Remember to find Victor Stone quickly and inject the sparkling oil into his body."
After saying that, Zuo Si stood up and disappeared from the spot in an instant.
"Don't worry, that guy can't escape my control."
The bat demon grinned in a creepy smile and glanced at the New Phyrexian creation hiding not far away.
As the Batman from another timeline, with his intelligence and the power he gained after becoming the only form of Archdemon, it was a piece of cake for him to deal with Cyborg who had just gained his powers.
Not to mention the existence of something like Shuoyou, which has a natural ability to restrain all mechanical bodies.
Soon, the bat demon woke up the unconscious female model and asked her to continue serving him. After he felt comfortable, he went into the house to take a shower.
Until night fell, he finally changed into a pure black high-tech bat suit and took off into the air, using the cover of the night sky to enter this dense steel jungle.
Knowing that Cyborg's brain had been transformed into a super quantum computer by the Mother Box, and that it was synchronized with the vast Internet on the entire earth 24 hours a day, receiving and processing massive amounts of i-information, the Batman did not choose to use the Internet to search for the other party's location.
Because he was very sure that this guy would find him before he found Cyborg's location.
Once Cyborg begins to realize that someone is hunting him, he will begin to use ubiquitous cameras and even a large number of military and civilian satellites overhead to monitor all suspicious targets around him.
It will be difficult to catch it then.
Fortunately, Cyborg's biggest limitation is that all of his abilities come from technology.
This meant that he knew nothing about magic and had no resistance at all.
With the help of various prophetic magics, especially by locating the Mother Box, the Bat Demon quickly discovered Cyborg's trace.
To be precise, this confused young man was wearing a hoodie covering half of his modified mechanical face, walking alone on the street where it was drizzling.
When encountering poor people or people in need, they will use the super quantum computer in their brains to break through limitations and directly deposit amounts ranging from a few thousand to more than one hundred thousand dollars into their accounts.
For him now, this is as easy as eating and drinking.
Not only can banks and the entire financial system be tamped with at will!
If he wanted, he could even instantly launch all the nuclear missiles that are on combat readiness duty in all the nuclear powers on earth, and directly grow mushrooms in major cities and major industrial bases around the world.
In addition, it can intercept and forge communications, allowing one military power to declare war on another.
In short, in this era when all human beings rely on technology for survival, the damage that Cyborg can cause is no less than that of Superman, who is a god on earth, and he also has the power to destroy human civilization.
This is also why his father Silas Stone chose to conceal it from the government without hesitation after discovering that his son had been transformed by the Mother Box.
He knew very well how those selfish politicians, the military and the capitalists behind them would react when they learned that there was such a huge threat to their rule and interests.
After all, Cyborg is not a Superman who can withstand a nuclear bomb without dying.
So Cyborg is now confused about his life and future.
On the one hand, he possesses such powerful strength that he can almost end human civilization single-handedly. The wealth that others dream of pursuing is nothing more than a string of meaningless numbers in his eyes, and he can have as much as he wants.
On the other hand, he is a poor guy who cannot stand the light and can only hide in the darkness and live his life in anonymity.
Even when helping others, he had to cover his face, for fear that others would see his electronic eye that flashed a terrifying red light and his semi-mechanized body.
As Cyborg was wandering aimlessly, he suddenly heard a voice behind him.
"You feel confused and helpless about your life and future, don't you?"
moment!
Cyborg stopped and turned sharply to look at the back of the deserted alley, only to see a giant humanoid bat standing on the fire escape stairs a few steps away.
As someone who can always get a lot of information from the Internet, he certainly couldn't help but know Batman, who guards Gotham City at night, and immediately couldn't help asking, "This is not Gotham, why are you here?"
"It's simple. I'm looking for you, Victor Stone."
The bat demon leaped down from a great height, looking like an old senior who was about to have a chat with the young people.
Given Batman Bruce Wayne's fairly good reputation, Cyborg obviously didn't take too much precautions, and just continued to ask doubtfully: "Looking for me? Why? Do you think I'm a threat in this horrible look? Or do you plan to kill me like you killed Superman?"
"No, neither. I just want to confirm your condition and the secret of the box. After all, terrible danger is about to come, and the entire earth and mankind need your strength."
As he spoke, the bat demon slowly moved forward and raised his hand as if to pat the other person's shoulder.
But just when the distance between the two was within one meter, he suddenly raised his hand without warning and grabbed the new Phyrexian creation that was falling from above his head, and then inserted it directly into the steel skeleton's chest that was shining red.
Bang! Sizzle!
As the metal shattered and the energy and lightning overflowed from the inside, Cyborg fell to his knees with a thud, raised his head to reveal his half-human, half-mechanical face, which was filled with shock and disbelief.
He simply couldn't believe that the famous Batman would actually attack him, and in such a despicable way.
But this is clearly how little he knows about Bruce Wayne.
The master always pays attention to the results rather than the process.
When he fights against all kinds of lunatics, psychopaths and criminals in Gotham City, he doesn't care what means he uses, as long as he can catch them and put them in jail in the end.
"W-why? Why are you doing this?"
After a brief moment of unconsciousness, Cyborg finally couldn't help but asked harshly.
"Why? Hahahaha! You are so naive and cute. Sorry, I am not the Batman you know, but the Bat-Devil who has unleashed the beast of fear in my heart."
As he spoke, the Bat Demon took off his helmet and revealed his true form as a devil.
At this moment, he no longer needs to hide his identity.
Because from the moment the new Phyrexian creation carrying the sparkling oil was stuffed into the opponent's core, Cyborg had lost all ability to resist.
His core is being corroded and melted by the oil.
It won't be long before he becomes a member of New Phyrexia, loyal to the Overlord of the Oil.
"What? This... How is this possible!?"
After realizing that he had recognized the wrong person, Cyborg was instantly filled with infinite regret.
At such a young age, he realized for the first time the wickedness of human nature and how the power he was so proud of was simply vulnerable in the face of true evil.
But unfortunately it was too late.
As the core that was glowing red was completely covered by the sticky oil, the small New Phyrexian creation had begun to transform into a complex mechanical and electronic structure, extending at an extremely fast speed along the spine and limbs to every corner, even the most important brain.
In just a few seconds, the gushing oil completely submerged it.
At this point, Victor Stone disappeared completely, leaving only the New Phyrexian creation that had been transformed from head to toe by the Shining Oil.
About three to five minutes later, Cyborg, who had been in a shutdown state, opened his eyes again and slowly stood up from the ground.
"It's over so soon?"
The bat demon showed a surprised expression.
He thought it would take at least ten minutes or even dozens of minutes.
"Of course! What do you think of the sparkling oil that the great father of New Phyrexia has innovated and integrated after several times? What's more, this guy is just a creation affected by the Mother Box, not the Mother Box itself."
Along with a familiar voice, the blue demon judge Jinji Tasha appeared out of thin air through the passage connected by the cave tree, walked straight to Steel Bone, inserted his sickle-like sharp fingers into it, and exchanged information with the help of the sparkling oil.
After a few seconds, he smiled with satisfaction and exclaimed, "As expected of a creation of the Mother Box, it should be a subatomic decomposition and reorganization in principle, which is similar to the effect of Shuoyou. I am now looking forward to what interesting things will be born when Shuoyou and the Mother Box are combined."
"So... my mission is accomplished?"
The Bat Demon asked in an uncertain tone.
"Of course. You did a great job, and I will be responsible for reporting to the master."
Jinjitasha gave an affirmative answer without hesitation, and ordered Cyborg directly: "What you have to do next is to wait for Batman Bruce Wayne to come and join the Justice League he has formed. Remember, don't reveal any information about New Phyrexia and Shock Oil to him."
"clear!"
After the transformation, Cyborg nodded vigorously, then turned around without looking back and disappeared into the night.
The bat demon also put on a helmet and flew into the air with the help of the armor, then left silently like a bat with its wings spread.
After the two of them had walked away, Jinji Taxia asked without even turning back, "How much do you think the Mother Box can help our plan?"
"I think it might be the key we've been looking for.
Once the Mother Box is obtained and the fusion is completed, the entire New Phyrexia will step into another completely different level.
By then, not only the great father of New Phyrexia, but also we ourselves will become completely immortal, and no matter how many times we are killed or destroyed, we can be resurrected infinitely. "
As he spoke, two flames suddenly ignited out of the darkness, and then Vashtor gradually left the shadows and walked under the dim light.
It is not difficult to hear from the conversation between the two that they are carrying out a secret plan that is unknown to the public, and the key to this plan is to obtain the Mother Box from Apocalypse.
"In that case, let us begin to act. Although the great father of New Phyrexia has not asked us to intervene, it does not mean that we cannot take some necessary measures to ensure that the Mother Box will eventually fall into our hands."
While saying this, Jinjitasha's eyes were shining with excitement and anticipation.
…
At the same time, far away on the Paradise Island heavily protected by powerful magical forces, the Amazon warriors were fighting a bloody battle with the newly arrived Steppenwolf.
As a member of the New Gods of Apokolips, although he behaved like a clown in front of Superman who was resurrected and strengthened by the Mother Box, this only shows that the latter is too strong, not that the former is too weak.
In fact, not only does he possess super strength, super speed, super reaction, super endurance and terrifying physiological functions of the New Gods like Superman and Wonder Woman, he even has the attribute of eternal immortality, but he also led the demon-like army to conquer countless planets and parallel universes for Darkseid.
Yes, Steppenwolf is immortal.
Even if he is killed, he can be resurrected on Apocalypse.
At this moment, Steppenwolf swept through all the Amazon female warriors on Paradise Island with a crushing posture and killed them easily.
It turns out that in the face of powerful individual forces that exceed the limit, numbers have no meaning at all.
What's more, he didn't come alone. Behind him were flying demons that kept killing Amazon warriors.
After a short while, he got the mother box that was kept here.
"Humph! It's a piece of cake! It seems that this mission is easier than I thought."
The Steppenwolf glanced at the Amazons around him who were still resisting stubbornly under the attacks of the demon-like creatures, and a scornful smile appeared on his face.
Although he really wanted to stay and kill all these women and enjoy their futile struggles and painful screams before death, considering that there were still two mother boxes that needed to be recovered, he hesitated and chose to prioritize the mission.
Without any hesitation, he directly teleported the first recovered mother box to the base he had prepared in advance.
When the box was placed into a huge black obelisk, it immediately released amazing energy to change the surrounding matter, and then a giant tree that was sickly twisted and flashing with red flames rose from the ground.
"Two! I only need two more Mother Boxes to merge into one, and I can prove my worth to Darkseid once again." Steppenwolf Todoroki muttered in a low voice.
"Why are you so obsessed with returning to Darkseid? You know, he was originally your enemy.
It was he who plotted against his brother Drax to steal the Omega Effect, and then instructed Desaad to poison his mother Heggra.
And you are just a victim of this family politics.
And you have done so much for him, but you haven't received even a little bit in return.
If I were you, I would have already started secretly planning to kill him and replace him.
After all, isn't it the tradition of Apocalypse that the winner takes all?"
Accompanied by words full of hints and instigation, Zuo Si descended from the sky like a big devil and landed steadily only one step away from the opponent.
The terrifying power and oppression were simply suffocating.
Although the surrounding demon-like creatures discovered the invasion and immediately wanted to swoop down to attack, they were crushed by the invisible force field before they could get close, and fell like raindrops.
"Are you the demon god who solved the Doomsday—Soth?"
The Steppe Wolf's pupils suddenly dilated, obviously recognizing the other party.
Although Zuo Si had never shown his great devil form in this universe, that kind of extremely evil aura was absolutely unmistakable.
It is not difficult to tell from his reaction that Apocalypse already has countless spies on Earth.
Lex Luthor is just one of them, and there are many others hiding beneath the surface.
"Yes, I am Soth.
How about it, are you interested in following me?
I promise that whatever Darkseid can give you, I can give you as well, and even more.
Not only that, I can also help you break free from the limitations of this universe and travel through the dark void to experience the vast multiverse.
All you have to do is kneel down and swear allegiance to me."
Zuo Si stretched out his right hand, which was as strong and powerful as a dragon's claw, and his two strange pupils revealed endless majesty.
"I…I think I need some time to think about it."
The steppe wolf lowered his head slightly and did not dare to look into those eyes.
He undoubtedly felt that the person standing in front of him must have the same or even stronger power as Darkseid, and was definitely not someone he could afford to provoke.
But he didn't understand where the other party came from? Why had he never heard of it before, nor encountered it in other timelines or parallel universes? Normally, a demon god of this level would never be limited to one universe, but could affect countless parallel universes at the same time.
"I can give you some time to think about it. But it's better not to take too long. At least give me an answer before collecting three Mother Boxes to open the tunnel to Apokolips."
After saying that, Zuo Si raised his hand and gently patted the steppe wolf on the shoulder. Then he flapped his wings and flew into the air, turning into a black dot in the sky and disappeared.
"Damn it! How could a demon that we've never seen before suddenly appear on this earth? Something must have gone wrong."
After watching the other party leave, Steppenwolf couldn't help but swing his fist and hit the wall next to him hard, cursing under his breath.
There is no doubt that Zuo Si's sudden appearance made him feel more stressed, and the difficulty of collecting the mother box increased by who knows how many times.
Because he was not sure whether the demon would suddenly show up and interfere when he collected the last mother box, or even snatch it away by force.
As for the option of kneeling and swearing allegiance, he had never considered it at all.
The reason is simple! Steppenwolf's roots are in Apokolips. Even if he is killed, he will be resurrected there. Therefore, he will never betray Darkseid, who rules Apokolips, and join others.
If you look at his resume, you will find that this guy has always been loyal to whoever becomes the ruler of Apocalypse.
At that time, Heggla was the ruler of Apokolips. When she ordered Steppenwolf to assassinate her son Darkseid, Steppenwolf did it without hesitation, although the final result was failure and he was exiled afterwards.
Later, Darkseid became the ruler of Apokolips, and Steppenwolf immediately swore allegiance to him and proved himself at all costs, conquering countless planets and parallel universes for him.
So it can be understood that Steppenwolf is a ferocious hound, and he will be loyal to whoever becomes the ruler of Apocalypse.
Although Zuo Si's offer was quite attractive, he would never consider it unless he had no other choice.
Just like that, after hesitating for a long time, Steppenwolf decided to get the second Mother Box first.
For this purpose, he sent all of his demon-like creatures out at once, without noticing that his every move was under Zuo Si's watch.
"Master, are you sure that Steppenwolf will eventually surrender to you?"
Davian stood high in the sky where the air was thin, looking down, and asked in an uncertain tone.
Zuo Si smiled and nodded: "Yes, because he has no other choice. When he fails to collect the Mother Box, he loses his value in Darkseid's eyes. There is no other way out except to join me. If he returns to Apokolips, what awaits him will be a punishment more terrible than death."
"I see!" Davian looked thoughtful, and then asked, "Will you use the Oil to transform Steppenwolf? Or will you make him into a follower card?"
"No, neither. I have other plans for him. By the way, how are little Annie and Mel doing? Are they in no great trouble?"
Zuo Si suddenly thought of his son and daughter who were abandoned in Gotham City.
Davian shook his head and replied, “No, they get along pretty well.
Since Mailer's personality is relatively cold and he doesn't care much about anything, he doesn't react too much to little Annie's jokes and pranks.
It's like two people doing their own things without interfering with each other.
As for the gangsters, criminals, lunatics and psychopaths in Gotham City, they have now become their toys.
Especially the Penguin Man who owns a huge black industry, he is probably about to be driven crazy now."
At this point, Davian suddenly paused, with infinite sympathy for the underworld tycoon appearing on his face.
If he had met a demon like Little Annie, who he couldn't beat and couldn't afford to offend, he would have probably exploded and gone crazy on the spot.
"Oh? What did my baby girl do?"
There was a hint of strong curiosity in Zuo Si's eyes.
As far as he knew, the Penguin was an inspirational role model in Gotham City, a real boss who had climbed up from the bottom step by step through the blood and gore.
Although he has no superpowers and is not ranked among the super villains, and is not very dangerous, at least he will not kill people without reason, but his willpower is the strongest.
It can even be called indomitable.
No matter how many times you fail, you can always rise again.
With this kind of ambition and means, you will definitely succeed in any industry.
Zuo Si found it hard to imagine that the Penguin Man would be driven crazy.
"Hey, it's a little hard to explain, you should just read it yourself."
As the last word came out of his mouth, Davian cast a spell to create an illusion out of thin air that could see into the distance.
moment!
Zuo Si understood why the Penguin Man went crazy.
Because his beloved daughter really turned this disabled guy into a human-shaped penguin, and in full view of everyone...
"Hehe! Come on, turn around."
Little Annie was holding a fish in her hand and waving it in front of the fat and smiling penguin man.
You have to know that the place where she is at the moment is the Penguin's lair - the Iceberg Club. She is surrounded by his subordinates and confidants, as well as political and business celebrities from Gotham City, including Bruce Wayne who appears as a playboy.
The old bat currently had a naked, undisguised smile on his face as he drank one drink after another in the company of his new, disposable girlfriend.
Because he knew that after what little Annie did, the prestige and appeal that the Penguin had worked so hard to build up would be completely destroyed.
From now on, no family or gang in the entire Gotham City underworld will respect the Penguin, and the huge criminal empire that he has worked so hard to build will fall apart.
If he wants to restore his prestige, this guy needs to start over and win respect with blood and death.
If it were the old Gotham City, the Penguin might still have a chance.
But now, even if those gangster godfathers agree, Batman Bruce Wayne will definitely not agree.
So the Penguin is finished.
He was easily destroyed by a cute girl who looked completely harmless.
Such a dramatic scene, no one would believe it unless they saw it with their own eyes.
But in order to survive and not become even more miserable, the penguin man didn't dare to disobey any orders given by little Annie. He could only drag the fat penguin's body around in a circle like a dog obeying its master's orders, then opened his mouth to catch the smelly raw fish thrown to him and swallowed it while suppressing his nausea.
The next second...
The entire place burst into laughter. Many of his men or other gang leaders who were originally afraid of him even clapped their hands vigorously, or even took out banknotes and threw them into the center of the venue in a humiliating way.
Anger! Hatred!
Sad and angry!
pain!
despair!
In just a few seconds, the Penguin experienced social death from all aspects, from physical to psychological.
"Beautiful lady, if you don't mind, could you tell me your name? I can guarantee that today's performance is the most exciting one in Gotham City in the past 20 to 30 years, bar none."
A polite middle-aged man in a suit took two steps forward, put one hand on his chest and bowed.
Although he looks like a man from high society, he is actually the godfather of one of Gotham City's most influential gangs.
Seeing that the Penguin was about to fall, he immediately couldn't wait to stand up and make friends with the girl in front of him who possessed unknown supernatural powers, and wanted to swallow the fattest piece of meat, the Iceberg Club.
"Really? Why didn't the Joker come? It's a shame to have such a big party without his iconic laugh."
Little Annie made a face that said I was very disappointed.
When the gangster godfather heard the word "Joker", he immediately shuddered uncontrollably as if he was stimulated, and his eyes revealed intense fear.
Because there is no gang in the entire Gotham City who is not afraid of this complete lunatic.
After all, the Joker is not interested in money or power, and cannot be bought by any conditions.
He is only interested in spreading chaos, fear and despair, and every action he takes has extremely serious and horrific consequences.
The most important thing is that anyone who is interested in clowns is usually a complete lunatic or psychopath.
For example, the Riddler, who also has a mental disorder, and Harley Quinn, who was extremely obsessed with the Joker before but later became his complete enemy.
Therefore, in the eyes of the gangster godfather, little Annie has basically been equated with a mentally ill lunatic, and also with extreme danger.
If possible, he hoped that the bat that hovered over Gotham City every night would come quickly and take people directly to Arkham Asylum.
Just when he felt a little sweaty, a signature maniacal laugh suddenly echoed in the lobby of the Iceberg Club.
"Hahahahaha! Hahahaha! Great! That's great! I can't remember how long it has been since I saw such a funny scene."
Then, a man in a purple suit, with slicked-back hair and clown makeup walked in from the door.
Behind him followed a group of people wearing clown makeup and holding baseball bats, knives and other melee weapons.
It goes without saying that the true uncrowned king of Gotham City, the Joker, has arrived.
Bruce Wayne, who was standing on the second floor drinking, changed his expression slightly, and subconsciously wanted to shake off his female companion and sneak out of the bathroom to change clothes.
You know, ever since the Joker escaped from Arkham, he has been looking for him, intending to capture this extremely dangerous madman.
But unfortunately, the Joker is one of the very few opponents in the world who can match him in intelligence, or even often has the upper hand.
So as long as the other party is determined not to be caught, even Batman has no good solution.
Now that the Joker has appeared in public, it is naturally the perfect time to capture him. Once we miss it, it will be difficult to find him.
"Are you the Joker?"
Little Annie looked curiously at this man whose actions, manners, and thoughts exuded disorder and chaos.
"Yes! It's absolutely true! I am very honored to be remembered by a being like you. You know, this is the first time I have seen someone who can exude a pure chaotic aura from his soul like me."
As he said this, the clown saluted with a very exaggerated but elegant gesture.
"What do you think chaos is?"
Little Annie was obviously interested and threw the Penguin toy she had just acquired aside.
The Joker opens his arms as if to hug something and loudly replies: “I think chaos is like a dog chasing.
It itself actually hasn't thought about why it is chasing.
But once you catch up, many unpredictable things will happen.
And it is this unpredictability that is the nature and essence of chaos.
It is also the most anticipated and interesting part.
what do you think?
Hahahahaha…"
