Chapter 41 Fear of the Bats
"Wh...when?"
The zombie Bane rolled his grayish-white eyes: "When exactly did you arrive...?"
Chen Tao ignored him.
He forcefully embedded his teeth deep into the other person's body, trying to bite for as long as possible.
His fangs became long and sharp, and the zombie Bane felt them piercing him like syringes, penetrating him deeply and injecting some unknown liquid.
Is it a toxin?
How ridiculous! What kind of toxin could possibly work on the blackness of decay?
Even the most potent poison cannot kill a corpse. Essentially, the word "death" will not appear in the dictionary of decaying blackness.
Lonely, indifferent.
Chen Tao's heart was ice-cold.
The indecisiveness and hesitation unique to a time traveler living in a peaceful era faded away from him. The brute ruthlessness unique to Bane combined with Batman's composure and calmness, combined with the massive body of a dinosaur, and enhanced by Venom, burst forth with a chemical reaction that is unimaginable to ordinary people.
"Foolish fellow, daring to get so close to me... Let the decaying blackness corrode him, after all..."
Bane, the zombie, rolled his eyes: "This guy called Batman, even if he has some special abilities, he's still just a mortal. And mortals can never resist decay..."
"Wait, why isn't it working?"
Bane's movements froze. He couldn't parasitize Killer Croc because it was an agent of the Red of All Beings. Nor could he control Poison Ivy because Poison Ivy and Plant Master belonged to the Green of All Beings.
Solomon Grendie is a zombie that is neither alive nor dead, but this person in front of him—even with superpowers, there is absolutely no way he could withstand him!
and many more……
Bane's gaze shifted downwards, and he saw Chen Tao's dark green dinosaur muscles gradually transforming into gleaming silver metal, starting from the tips of his teeth.
The power of decaying blackness only encountered lifeless, inanimate objects, and was as bewildered as a toad trapped in a glass jar.
The insect-like arthropods that emerged from Bane's back made a clanging sound on Chen Tao's face.
Chen Tao slowly opened his mouth and stepped back.
"call……"
Bane, the zombie, seemed somewhat helpless. Poison Ivy was surprised that monsters like them, who were already dead, could still feel such a thing as "helplessness."
"Well then, my dear Ivy."
Poison Ivy wanted to say, "We're not that close," but she decided not to provoke him now, since Batman was standing there quietly and didn't attack.
She already had a vague idea of what Batman had done.
"You still don't intend to join our Rotten Black? I value your Ivy highly. Do you think that's why I haven't killed you, but instead let you play with me for so long? But the playing around should stop eventually."
Zombie Bane looked the bat-dinosaur standing there up and down: "You're relying on him? You won't give up your wishful thinking until I defeat him? Just like that zombie lying there? Oh, little girl."
He said, "You're such a worry."
But he felt that Poison Ivy was looking at him strangely, as if she were looking at a dead man, even though he was.
He heard the other person say with pity, "You've never lived in Gotham, have you?"
"What does this have to do with what we're discussing?"
"Yes, of course."
Green plants gathered behind Poison Ivy, weaving into a rattan chair. She slowly sat down, like an audience member waiting for a movie to start.
"Let me teach you some rules of life in Gotham, some common sense. As a supervillain living in Gotham, how can you not know these things?"
Poison Ivy extended a slender, green finger and then spoke.
"First."
puff!
The zombie Bane's body suddenly froze, and a strong green color spread from his back. Half of his body was uncontrollably transformed into green plants, a stark contrast to his rotting and foul-smelling other half!
"How could it be—it was you! It was you when you bit me just now—"
Poison Ivy's cold voice followed.
"First, Batman cannot fail, nor can he fail, because if he fails, countless people will die because of him."
Therefore, Batman never loses. He wins, he has won in the past, he wins now, he will win in the future, and he will just keep winning.
With a thud, the zombie Bane collapsed to his knees, violently tearing at the half of his body from which the plants had grown. Countless pieces of rotten and fresh flesh were pierced by the plants, and each piece of plant torn off brought with it a stream of black blood.
"No matter what kind of opponent he faces, no matter how seemingly invincible the enemy, Batman will win. Even if it's a Pyrrhic victory, even if he pays any price. And when Batman wins... it means the criminals lose, so the criminals of Gotham are afraid of Batman because they can never defeat him."
Poison Ivy's voice was slightly low as she spoke of those youthful years... those golden years when even Poison Ivy was just starting out.
"You will try again and again, exhausting all your wisdom and every possible method, like Sisyphus trying to push the boulder—but you will never win! That's Batman. He'll always be one step ahead of you, always has been."
Glug glug glug glug...
The venom canister on Bane's back suddenly started operating automatically without warning, continuously injecting venom into the body.
The zombie Bane howled loudly, "No! You're under our control, damn it—get out of our heads!"
"Secondly, Batman will not die; that is a fact."
"Shoot Batman with a gun, he won't die;"
"Even if you saw him disappear in the explosion, he wouldn't die."
"You can't kill Batman with a knife, and you can't kill Batman with a tank."
"Poison won't kill him; no matter how deadly the attack, no matter how many people claim they killed Batman and what convincing evidence they present, as long as the crime continues, Batman will appear, stand in front of them, and end their criminal careers with his fists."
Even if he is covered in wounds and has been shot multiple times, he will still appear before the criminals.
"No! What did you do to me!"
The zombie Bane writhed and screamed on the ground, his two voices resonating in unison, emitting a piercing shriek: "Spare me!"
Poison Ivy's voice was still ringing out.
"Third, Batman has the most unwavering beliefs. No matter what you say or what you try to use to bribe him, it will be to no avail. No one can shake his beliefs or make him give up his career or his identity."
He was taciturn and wouldn't listen to anyone's nonsense; all he needed to know was whether you wanted to surrender.
Poison Ivy sincerely said:
"That's Batman. Difficult or even impossible to communicate with, his appearance is completely unpredictable, sometimes he's like a shadow, sometimes he's infinitely close to a human, difficult or even impossible to kill."
Her tone held a hint of pity:
"Batman is a monster like that, unbreakable, unpersuasive, unchangeable, he only wins..."
We won't lose!
