Under the threat of Jason's "I'll cut you" look, he was not tied up with the Lasso of Truth.
However, Vivi was just saying this casually to express her excitement at finally finding her fourth teammate. Now that she is meeting up with Steve, they can start the final boss.
In the soft and warm darkness, they were like walking in a black jungle. A dozen people huddled together, some of whom knew Vivi - the night watchman was a local vigilante in Gotam, so she greeted them one by one. Some people also asked Wonder Woman for an autograph. Vivi turned her head and happened to see Bruce. By the way, the boy looked familiar.
Because her other account has only met Damian, so it is easier to compare.
She didn't say anything, and the two sides exchanged information -
In fact, not all of Jason's people came out of the candy maze. As the ground rose and fell from time to time, a few of them got separated, and then a few new ones were picked up. Those who were able to get out of the second maze naturally received "props" given by the gargoyles, including flashlights for Vivi and the others, goggles for Jason and his friends, and lanterns and crystal balls for the others.
The lantern can illuminate a space with a radius of 3 meters, while the flashlight can emit light about 5 meters away. Wearing goggles can vaguely see the scene 10 meters away. Only the crystal ball seems to be useless and has no reaction.
There were only two people holding the crystal ball. They said that their second maze was located underwater. When the gargoyle gave the crystal ball to them, he said that this prop could produce a sign when danger was coming.
Coincidentally, among the ten or so people present, they were unable to form a complete team of four, only two or three at most.
"Will we be standing on the back of a bat?" someone asked. "One of those giant bats?"
"No," Jason said, "the density of the down is wrong. We must be standing on a synthetic blanket."
He squatted down and brushed away the fur under his feet, then checked again.
Maybe it was because everyone here, whether adults or children, looked like children, which gave him a little more patience than usual - as long as he didn't see the face of "Thomas".
They walked forward hand in hand, almost getting used to the strange gravity. Jason frowned and said, "I hope we can get out soon."
Weiwei: “?”
Jason: "...because I can't wait to buy some Gargoyle merch."
Wow, really? Weiwei was in awe.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the reports of arrests never stopped. The number of people on the entire map had dropped sharply to less than 20. Most of the people should be here.
After two more rounds of ups and downs on the ground, due to gravity, if they hadn't held on to the people around them, they would have easily been separated. Weiwei suspected that there would be random teleportation during the ups and downs. At this time, the Gargoyle, who had followed them obediently, took off. After flying around, it said, "I saw one of your three-member team members ahead. Are you going there?"
Everyone was excited, and the three-person team member explained that after gathering together, there would be a four-person team, and they could also start fighting the boss.
Led by the gargoyles, they finally succeeded in joining forces with another group of people.
There are three people in this group, Captain America Steve, Black Widow Natasha, and Bruce and Winna's companion who was teleported away, with the little Batman.
After Steve joined, the four-person team of Jason, Steve, Diana, and Vivi was merged. On the other side, after Natasha came back, the barefoot girl who first asked to buy the gargoyle walked over with a cheer, and their team was also merged, now forming two complete four-person teams.
Jason's little Batman got together with the little Batman over there, and they merged the next second.
Jason: “…”
The boy who returned Batman to Bruce's team asked tactfully, "Now is this... your little Batman or mine?"
The green-eyed boy looked at him silently, then pretended to look at the two-headed Batman who could only say "Warrior Balabala", and said solemnly: "It's mine, and mine is a little fatter."
The gargoyle directly above suddenly said, "Watch out!"
In the darkness, something came extremely fast, and almost everyone knew that it must be Batman.
They gathered together immediately. Those wearing goggles looked up in the direction where the wind pressure was coming from. Jason even heard someone curse, "Fuck batman!"
...I don't know why, but I feel like laughing.
"Form a square," he said, "and the unarmed men stand in the middle."
They tried, but the items given by the Gargoyles could not be exchanged.
Through the goggles, they could see the vague figures of the Gargoyles and Batman in the sky. The Gargoyles fought with Batman in order to delay him. In the crowd, Diana touched "Thomas"'s shoulder and raised an eyebrow at him.
The real Batman, who was among these children, looked at her helplessly.
Then, his eyes fell on the boy who took the initiative to step forward and conduct.
He doesn't look much like Jason... When Bruce first saw Jason, the boy was much thinner, but his eyes were like a little leopard who refused to admit defeat.
With a "bang", the gargoyle, which was no match for Batman, was knocked away. A dozen people started to commotion. Vivi raised the flashlight, and a huge black bat swooped down from above at an extremely fast speed, almost catching someone, but before that, Bruce pounced over and pressed the child to the ground.
——The next second their bodies bounced up, and Batman flew past Bruce's back.
Bruce: “…”
The two people holding the crystal ball were protected in the final room. One of them said in surprise: "My crystal ball started to glow."
"Mine is the same, but a second slower, because..."
Natasha looked at them, then looked up: "If the crystal ball is for warning--"
The others had already filled in the blanks for her: "That must be to warn of the enemy's approach. Whichever direction Batman is coming from, which one of your crystal balls will light up first."
Weiwei raised her hand. "When I shone my flashlight on Batman's cape, I saw him dodge a little."
"Our enemy is the 'evil' part of Batman," Bruce began to analyze himself seriously, "and this is the deepest maze, the maze in his heart. It's dark here. Obviously, he is afraid of light."
Maybe it was because Jason was the one walking in front at the beginning. The others were quite convinced by him. The boy frowned and said, "The one holding the flashlight should raise it first. The one holding the flashlight just now was not attacked. I found that Batman even avoided them. The people holding the flashlights stand in a triangle, and the crystal ball stands in the middle, one in front and one behind. Whoever finds that his crystal ball lights up first will report his position, which is 'front' and 'back' respectively. Goggles... We are responsible for vigilance and stand in the back row."
Under the command, Jiang Jiang took his position, and the second attack from Batman came.
Compared with strong adults, children's bodies are too weak, not to mention they are restricted by the changes in gravity. This time they still staggered from side to side. Although they forced Batman back, they failed to hurt him.
Diana frowned. If she was in her original state, even if she still looked like a child, she would definitely be able to deal with this Batman with his rigid attack method.
Weiwei raised her hand: "We have seven flashlights, right?"
Jason: “That’s right.”
"I think more lights need to be on Batman at the same time to hurt him, but our light is only five meters long," she said, pushing aside a few people and walking to the middle of the triangle. "Turn off the other flashlights. I'll be responsible for finding him, and then combine the other lights with my light into one column."
This is indeed a very dangerous decision, because as long as I have a flashlight in my hand, I don't have to worry about being caught, but now that it is closed, everyone is Batman's target.
But they knew Vivi was right, the only question was whether they should trust her.
Jason ordered the others to condense their formation and let the light of the flashlight illuminate them. When the flashlights went out one by one, the little bat suddenly flew up and sat on Weiwei's shoulder, saying, "Don't worry, I will help you, warrior."
Jason: "..."Aren't you my little bat?
The third round of attack, "Front", "Turn on the lights", seven beams of light pointed to a certain point at the same time, and the creature named "Batman" staggered, as if part of his "wings" was burned off, and when he flew up again, they could all see that his movements were crooked.
The fourth round of attacks, "Back", "Lights", both of Batman's wings were burned off, he disappeared into the darkness, and then uttered his famous words: "I am revenge--"
"I am the darkness—"
"I'm Batman—"
Bruce Wayne: "..."
He heard faint laughter, but he closed his eyes, choosing not to listen.
In the fifth round of attack, the big Batman jumped directly into the crowd and was illuminated by the light. Then, he seemed to be "burned". The body shape of an adult man suddenly changed and shortened, from a human of several hundred pounds to a black cat of several dozen pounds.
But the little cat regained its wings like a devil... This may be the invariance of mass.
Bruce heard someone hiss, "Batman is a cat?"
After a moment of silence, Bruce smiled and said, "I think so."
Even Jason turned around to look at him, confusion evident on his face.
Bruce lowered his voice: "Batman is an urban legend. No one can ever take off his mask. I think he fights criminals at night, but during the day, he might turn into a black cat, so no one can find him."
What does what Batcat did have to do with Bruce Wayne?
That makes sense, several people chattered, it makes a lot of sense.
Weiwei has a strange expression——
After the seven-day event, the speculation that "Batman is actually a cat" will probably spread everywhere, but... She opened the gold coin mall and took a look. It would be interesting if Batman became a well-known cat.
In online games, Batman's transformation from a human to a cat is clearly a sign of a boss's downfall, meaning they have already taken away a portion of the opponent's health bar, but the boss's attack method will also change.
After the sixth round of attacks, they finally saw the cat's appearance clearly. The upper half of its face was covered by a mask, while the lower half was covered with white hair and looked very serious.
The boy holding the lantern suddenly screamed, and as the light flickered, he shouted, "It's attacking my arm."
Before he could react, the lamp he was holding fell to the ground and quickly rolled into the darkness. The light around him dimmed immediately. Weiwei immediately said, "Martin, go stand in his position, turn on the flashlight, and don't listen to my instructions from now on."
Martin shouted, "Yes, I live and die with the flashlight."
There is no need to be so serious.
The black cat won't catch people, but it will use its soft claws to attack people's limbs, and then cause problems with the props in their hands. It is too fast and agile. Fortunately, not all the people present are ordinary people. There are also smart vigilantes and superheroes. The formation changed again. Steve and Diana went to guard the other two children with lanterns, and Bruce and Jason were responsible for warnings-
After several minutes of tense and exciting "battle", the black cat also lost the ability to fly, and after a "meow", it turned into a small bat the size of a palm.
Someone wondered, "Is that what Batman would call himself during the day?"
Jason: “Pfft.”
Just as they were thinking about how to deal with this little bat, the two-headed Batman flew up, and then a faint light rose from the horizon.
It's like the sunrise in Gotam.
Even though the sunrise in Gotam is always short-lived, as when the sun rises to a certain height it is obscured by layers of dark clouds, everyone has seen the sunlight tinting the edges of the clouds with golden light.
The two-headed Batman spread his wings and blocked the little bat that was trying to attack him.
Everyone saw a vision: the fallen Batman was huge, and they were stepping on his cape. As the bat merged with the little Batman, the real Batman who got up seemed to regain his consciousness. He stood up by holding the wall. There was a bright fire in the distance, and he once again joined the battle.
The illusory scene ended, and everyone found themselves in front of a door.
The surroundings were the same as the enclosed space when I first entered the maze. Directly in front of me was a door with a white sheep's head hanging on it, which was different from the one when I entered - there was a black sheep's head when I came in.
Jason looked around, somewhat disappointed, the gargoyle was gone.
And Aries opened his mouth and said, "Two teams can come over to claim their rewards."
There are two teams of eight people, Natasha and Vivi, and the others cannot get rewards because it is not a full team.
