Chapter 33: The winning player's career is without regrets.
Player: 666, Nightwing really knows how to play.
This makes sense, really. Both the real and fake Red Robin sensed something amiss in Nightwing's behavior. Nightwing himself could even be certain that the player-controlled Red Robin knew his identity as the Vampire King. Even after Red Robin obtained clues about his counterpart, and the evidence was destroyed, it was still impossible to determine if there were any overlooked codes that only Red Robin could understand. Better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free; regardless of which Red Robin it was, they were Nightwing's primary targets. To prevent Red Robin from revealing the Vampire King's true identity, Nightwing naturally had to strike first.
In the game of Werewolf in another world, the cunning werewolf masquerades as the Seer, always managing to save the damsel in distress at just the right moment, winning over Barbara's favor. Barbara was present at Arkham City, so her and Nightwing's investigation findings are undoubtedly plausible.
Wen Yue squeezed her cloak and had no choice but to open it. Nightwing's twin staffs weren't energy attacks that could be absorbed by the aura, and even players with cheat codes couldn't do anything against physical attacks. Players' actual physical strength was simply not enough to compete with Nightwing.
Upon receiving the signal from the cape, Superman instantly appeared in front of Wen Yue, directly confronting Nightwing's Kalili stick and taking the attack head-on. At the same time, members of the Justice League also arrived. True Red Robin Tim, along with Dick and Jason, followed closely behind, landing protectively around Wen Yue.
"I'll play my trump card right away, how will you respond?" The ethereal light elements in the void materialized and condensed into a dazzling halo, which fell into Wen Yue's outstretched palm.
The halo refracted holy light, paused for a moment, then suddenly erupted with an extreme brilliance, soaring into the sky to rival the moon. The entire sky of Gotham was painted a sacred, bright white, like dawn, and an unstoppable light bathed the whole of Gotham. The starry sky swirls up countless condensed rays of light, inflicting piercing pain on the creatures of darkness.
The use of the angelic halo this time is not for destruction, but for purification. Players must restrain their energy output, trying to weaken the power of all vampires in this area to the point of being unable to function normally without harming their own lives.
[Angel Halo: 7%]
The vampires who wanted to play Werewolf were forced to reveal their true forms, their bloodthirsty red eyes no longer able to be hidden.
Under the shadows, the red in Nightwing's eyes stood out, reflecting a cold, inhuman glow.
The sudden turn of events is no challenge for the players; in the blink of an eye, the situation is much better. If all else fails, unleashing their aura for an instant kill isn't out of the question. I suggest Nightwing just surrender; with players using cheats like this, what's the point of fighting?
Watching Superman beat Nightwing with ease, the casual player can finally give up. No matter what Nightwing's plans are as the vampire king, as long as he dares to come to the Batcave, Superman will break through all laws with his strength.
Wen Yue removed her blindfold, and a holy light poured down from the halo above her head, giving her handsome face an otherworldly, sacred quality. The bat families from the two worlds did not look alike; the only similarity was that they both had distinctive blue eyes.
"I did impersonate Batman to issue the assembly order, but my purpose was not to gather everyone, but for Nightwing, the vampire king." If Nightwing were summoned to the Batcave alone, he might not come.
"I am Red Robin from another world. This is my family, Robin and Red Hood." Pointing to Dick and Jason, the self-introduction is essential.
"We've been hunted by the vampire army ever since we came into this world. The staff and Red Robin's darts were left behind when we were caught in vampire traps and ambushes." Let's clarify why there were traces of Red Robin at the Joker's death scene.
"So we joined forces with Red Robin from this world and cooperated with Superman to devise this countermeasure plan..." After Wen Yue explained the cause and effect, Superman and the Justice League heroes successfully arrested Nightwing and Hal.
This exhilarating game of Werewolf finally ended with the werewolf being caught, and the side of justice ushered in a long-awaited victory.
The players were prepared for the boss to enter a second phase or for a hidden boss to spawn at the end of the level, but nothing happened, and they won smoothly.
[Another World Bat Squad Joins Local Superheroes to Save the World in the Demon King's World (Completed)] Group Chat -
[Fourth Calamity]: Comrades, we have won the victory. Now I'll just say a few words.
[The Fourth Calamity]: Meow, meow.
[Duck Detective]: Well, let me say a few words as well.
[Duck Detective]: First sentence, second sentence, over.
[The Fourth Calamity]: Beetroot! You've surpassed your master, Detective Duck!
[Red Date Daifuku]: Add firewood!
[Sweet Wings]: Absolutely divine!
...
[The Fourth Calamity]: Where are the Clarkians? Why aren't they chatting and loitering in the group? @HappySuperman
[Happy Superman]: Waaaaah, so much post-war cleanup work, I can't finish it all, I just can't finish it all...
[Fourth Calamity]: Sigh, you're the one who's really suffering. I'm different; I don't even have a job.
[Duck Detective]: If you feel that life is peaceful and serene, it must be because someone is bearing the burden for you.
[The Fourth Calamity]: You really are making me cry! Ya Aotian is forever a god!
[Red Date Dafu]: Where are you now? I have something good I want to show you.
[Fourth natural disaster]: Decisively and politely refuse, don't look.
[Sweet Little Wings]: Superman said he wants to treat you to a celebration dinner alone. Give me your address and he'll come pick you up.
[Happy Superman]: Huh?
[Fourth Calamity]: Thanks for the invitation, I don't eat alone.
[Red Date Daifuku]: Get back here right now and deal with the aftermath!
[The Fourth Calamity]: Heh! You can't catch me, can you? There's nothing I can do, I'm just that powerful!
Wen Yue put down her phone, took a satisfying sip of juice, ate all the potato chips, and her hand itched to reach for the cola in the cup next to her.
Tim took a break after finishing part of his work. He reached into his snack bag and found his hand full of crumbs. He shook the empty bag and gave it a reproachful look.
The unscrupulous player was not ashamed at all, and even took the opportunity to slurp up the cola, but the original owner was quick-witted and snatched the cup back.
Staring at the Coke that was just left at the bottom of the cup, Tim's eyes blazed with fury and his fists clenched: "A newborn!"
Aside from work, everything else belonged to Tim. But besides work, he enjoyed nothing. At that moment, Tim deeply regretted having succumbed to the player's pitiful pleas and, inexplicably, accepted this pile of documents that had drastically increased his workload. His momentary hesitation had led to this miserable situation. If he could go back, he would definitely say no decisively. Well, maybe not, but he would certainly politely decline, at least not so cheaply, because things that are cheap are never appreciated…
That damn Bruce!
The Fourth Calamity: A device that demystifies Batman.
Yes, Tim knew that the creature disguised as Red Robin was Bruce. From Jason and Dick's submissive behavior, which was that of players, and from Superman's unusually trusting attitude, as the Super Duck Detective, he had already noticed something amiss. But he hadn't told the rest of the Batman family. He wanted others to experience the same hardships he had endured, and now he was eagerly waiting to watch the drama unfold.
Once players have eaten and drunk their fill, it's time for them to go to sleep.
Wen Yue lay on the large bed in Tim's safe house, hugging a soft pillow, and closed her eyes peacefully. She let Tim catch up, holding documents, and grumble at the player, saying something like, "How can you sleep like that?" What's there to not sleep about? Spring drowsiness, autumn fatigue, summer naps, and the three months of winter when you can't wake up—it's all in accordance with the harmonious laws of nature. No one can stop a lazy player from lying down and doing nothing.
Wen Yue reached out and pulled Tim aside, making room for him on half the bed. "Don't stay up late, Detective Duck, go to sleep. Those dark circles under your eyes make you look like you're about to die. And don't spout that nonsense about why you should close your eyes before you die, since you'll sleep peacefully after you die. The meaning of life is to sleep. If you really can't sleep, we'll just take a five-minute nap."
Saying you'll only sleep for five minutes is the biggest lie humans tell in bed.
Tim slept for two days and two nights, practically in a coma. Wen Yue went from initial worry to numbness, and was ultimately completely convinced. Players assumed Tim was just sleeping for those few days, but in reality, Tim was likely catching up on years of sleep deprivation since becoming Robin. A tragic and lamentable career for a superhero.
While Tim was sleeping, Wen Yue used 1% of her energy to cast a healing aura on him. It's a common problem for heroes: a body riddled with wounds and their potential squeezed dry. Today, the player did a good deed by healing Tim's hidden injuries.
The warm glow repaired surface damage while healing subcutaneous and internal injuries. Bruised and mottled skin became smooth, and the pain that had raged within was gently soothed by the gentle holy light. Everything returned to its original state, and Tim's appearance was as if he had just had a beauty spa treatment.
Tim woke up feeling refreshed. Wen Yue, dressed in Tim's uniform and cosplaying as Red Robin, immediately came to his bedside, holding a soda bottle as a microphone and asking him what brand of coffee he was drinking. The effect was so good that players bought it like crazy.
The idea that coffee helps you stay alert is a lie; even stimulants don't have that effect.
Tim remained silent, simply frantically completing his tasks. Players without the cheat [Work Assistant] were helpless and could only admire the Stormtroopers in the Scroll King.
"Your Batman took all the important documents, no need to rush." Wen Yue quickly showed off all of Tim's snacks, then opened the door to let the group members in.
"So you're telling us to wait outside just so you can eat all by yourself inside?" Jason stared at the player's mouth with a sinister tone.
Wen Yue wiped the crumbs off her face, her cheeks puffed out, her eyes darting around unconsciously: "No, no, don't talk nonsense." She remained unmoved by the condemning gazes of the crowd. Players have been acting like idiots for a long time now.
Jason walked over, grabbed Wen Yue's shoulder, and escorted the player into the luxury car like a prisoner. "Stop joking around, the celebration banquet is about to begin." This was a real celebration banquet, an internal dinner organized by the Bat Family.
Wen Yue waved to Tim from inside the car, her face beaming: "Come on over, we're off!"
Tim wondered if he was still half asleep. "Going to Wayne Manor?" Why hadn't anyone notified him about the family dinner? He had no idea.
Tim, who is the least worrisome, is also forgotten today.
Wen Yue chuckled awkwardly, her expression somewhat unnatural, "You were asleep at the time, so you didn't see it..."
Tim suddenly had a bad feeling. He opened his message list and found that new chat logs had been generated while he was sleeping.
[Bruce]: There's a family dinner tomorrow, come with your counterpart.
[Duck Detective]: He's asleep. I'll go with your Tim.
[Bruce]: Still sleeping at this hour?
[Duck Detective]: Yes, maybe I should wake him up for dinner.
[Bruce]: When did he go to sleep?
[Duck Detective]: Yesterday. Maybe I gave him too much, which made him too tired last night.
[Duck Detective]: I'm going to take a shower now. That's all for today.
[Bruce]: ?
[Bruce]: I'm coming right away.
"What do you mean 'I was too tired last night'? And what did you give me?" Tim demanded in a fit of rage.
"Here are the documents. And your comatose sleep that I can't wake you up from is just because you're too tired." Wen Yue shrugged and made a tactical retreat, leisurely rolling up the car window.
Seeing Tim fuming, Jason patted him on the shoulder to comfort him.
