The Death Knell

"I once played a game with my adoptive father, and whether he realized it or not, and maybe it was just me, I thought the goal was to sneak up on him."

It can be said that there is a gathering of heroes on the roof of the Gotham Police Station. Many superheroes are coming from all over, preparing for the great battle that will determine the direction of the universe.

Nightwing and the Titan team also arrived. He was leaning on the edge of the rooftop, chatting with Seastorm Garth. Because the two wounded men had been absent from many previous events, they had many topics in common.

Batman didn't come, and Wonder Woman was discussing things with Ron and Cyborg. Everyone present was talking to people they knew well for the time being, because no one knew how many people would survive after the battle.

This may be the last chance to communicate.

So Dick talked about Batman in his memory. When his parents died when he was eight years old, he was adopted and trained by Batman. His memories were all related to this city and the Dark Knight.

But Garth was a little distracted. He was sharing a bag of dried fish with Beast Boy. In order to eat and drink in the name of justice, Beast Boy even turned into a cat.

Nightwing didn't care about this. He just wanted to relieve the pressure, so he continued without getting a response:

"But sneaking up on Batman was impossible, and after failing many times, I learned to watch and wait, studying how he exploited the dark shadows."

"Why do I feel like I heard someone say this before?"

Not far away, Donna was carrying Bobo on her shoulders. She whispered that after the handover between the Rock of Eternity and the army, the three of them didn't know where to find the death knell, so they could only ask for an existence called the adjutant. They are sent back to Earth.

The orangutan's eyes also turned into the shape of dead fish. He jumped to the ground aside, took out his pipe and started smoking: "You're right, Jason, Tim, and Damian all said this, even at the beginning. Likewise, Batman certainly knows what game they're playing, it's like a beast teaching his cubs to simulate hunting."

Raven's little face was still expressionless, but she also said: "Yes, just like my father likes to kill people in front of me."

The girl in steel armor holding a sledgehammer also nodded:

"I've heard similar last words. Anyway, Nightwing will say next that he hid under Batman's car and secretly followed his adoptive father out, preparing to surprise Batman. As a result, he accidentally met the Justice League for the first time. This The greatest superhero organization ever, and moved by their mission and beliefs."

"...Wait a minute, are you saying that I have the same experience as them?" Yeyi couldn't say any more. He touched the scar on his head and looked at his teammates speechlessly: "Every day we have Everyone thought they were hidden under the Batmobile without anyone noticing, and then they were all taken to see the Justice League?"

No matter how stupid you are, you should understand what's going on, not to mention Nightwing is not stupid at all.

Bobo climbed up Nightwing's thigh and onto his shoulder, patting the man's head sympathetically: "Yes, at least I know this is the game you play with Batman. The Dark Knight has indeed been playing with you. , he knows everything.”

Donna smiled and spread her hands, looking at the crowd not far away: "Do you, the Bat family, all copy each other's last words? You have to reminisce before every battle. Is it necessary? Hi, Barbara!"

"Shh! This is the roof of the police station!" The bat girl passing by elongated her face in fear and ran over to cover Donna's mouth: "Don't call me by my name here. Although my father is not here, there are almost no people in the police station. Everyone knows me!”

Accompanying Barbara are Batgirl Kate Kane, 'Orphan' Cassandra Cain, and 'Spoiler' Stephanie Brown.

They are all Batgirls, or were once, and now they have once again put on those different colored Bat uniforms and returned to the city.

Really back in the city, they are usually not in Gotham. Kate has been busy fighting magical crimes in Gotham and preventing demons from invading here, so she spends a lot of time in hell or another dimension.

Little Cassian is the daughter of Mrs. Siwa. Although she has also been a Batgirl, she likes killing people and can't control her violent tendencies, so she has been living in Hong Kong with her mother in recent years.

Stephanie has been tracking down the affairs of P52 and N52, investigating the truth of the universe. Who knows where she has been all these years.

After the two teams merged, they talked about the Bat Family's unified last words, and found that several Bat girls had the same last words.

He wanted to sneak up on Batman, but failed one after another at the beginning. After training, he finally managed to hide under the Batmobile. As a result, he was 'accidentally' taken to a secret location, where he met the Justice League, and then was discovered in a daze, and then... Being inspired...

Everyone was speechless now, only Beast Boy was rolling on the floor laughing. These bat boys and girls usually thought they were smart, but in the end they were all fooled by Batman.

This is very embarrassing.

But in the end, Yeyi himself laughed. After all, he was facing a big battle and just wanted to talk to his teammates and adjust his mentality.

Now that everyone is so happy, there is no need to talk about the rest. This situation is just right, and this is what the Titans team should be like.

At this time, he felt a gaze from a distance, and turned around to see that it was Damian. The little man was huddled under the hood, and he was on the other end of the rooftop with his Teen Titans teammates.

Their team formed a formation, vaguely protecting Black Wally in the middle. Even here, he did not relax his vigilance.

Seeing Dick looking at him, Damian just nodded as a greeting and had no intention of saying anything more. Instead, he turned to communicate with the members of the Youth League around him. Now both Tim and Connor In their absence, Princess Amethyst and Wonder Girl temporarily lead the team.

The situation of the Youth League is different from that of the Titans and Teen Titans. Their members have a wide age range, ranging from 27 to 11 or 12 years old.

But they are a team, and they are very united. At this time, they have already formed a formation, vaguely protecting the speedster Bart Allen in their team.

It's even more complicated, because Bart was supposed to be Barry's grandson, a person from the future, but he died in the past. He came back after the "Rebirth" incident. People who don't know about the soft restart of the universe basically They all thought he had never left.

Except for the Justice Society of America, which has retired due to old age, basically all the heroes who can come have almost arrived. Some of the heroes who really can't get away will also participate in the meeting through video communication.

As Green Arrow arrived last, the meeting began. Ron blocked all perceptions of the outside world through his psychic abilities, and then began to tell a plan.

Based on the latest information sent by Barry, it can be concluded that the Laughing Bat has shaped its own multiverse, and soon those lunatic groups on Earth will want to launch a full-scale attack on the multiverse we currently live in.

Barry and Wally are racing in the Speed ​​Force while dragging their laughter, while the franchise worlds in the Hall of Justice are preparing for their own battles.

Ron hoped that in the coming time, when the front-line superheroes of the Justice League and the Laughing Bat were fighting, other people would also be able to take on different tasks. Next, a series of task assignments would be sent to everyone's mind, quietly Silent, safer and more hidden.

Those who got the mission were sent away one by one through the sonic tunnel. On the final rooftop, only a few giants from Zhenglian were left.

"Where should we find Batman?"

Arthur held up his big fork and asked the wise man Ron.

The green-skinned Martian showed a wry smile and floated with his hands behind his back:

"Actually, I don't know where he is. Although my psychic ability can lock the location of almost everyone, people like Batman and Deathstroke are always special cases. They have ways to block my methods. Diana, you know Deathstroke is there. Where?"

Wonder Woman looked at Hawkgirl, then at Cyborg, and shook her head: "He didn't tell me. Donna said that he defeated the Ghost not long ago, and then went to the Rock of Eternity to defeat the Upside Down, and then disappeared. .”

Eagle Girl was holding her mace with a speechless look on her face: "I thought you were dating."

"I don't know what the relationship is, but I know we can't be idle here. With or without his help, the Justice League will fight to the end." Diana looked at the silent Superman aside, the strong man seemed to be What to think about: "Clark, do you think we should take the initiative to destroy the headquarters of the Laughing Bat?"

Superman also looked at Ron, then at Jessica, the Green Lantern who came to replace Hal in the meeting, and said:

"We still don't know how strong the enemy's attack is, let alone the 'void'. I have talked to Superboy-Prime about things outside the origin wall before. He said that it is a darkness that no one can imagine, so I suggest , in the early stage of the strategy, we should first protect our world, and if we have spare power, then think about beheading or counterattack plans."

Oliver touched his beard and agreed with this view: "You're right. No matter we represent ourselves, the entire earth must be protected by us. We should indeed be more stable."

"By the way, why did you come out of the Hall of Justice?" Cyborg looked at Green Arrow. The black young man looked puzzled. His metal head looked a little dim even in Gotham: "Obviously it is better for you to stay there and control the overall situation. Good choice."

"Don't be stupid, young man. Everyone is going to fight the Laughter. Do you want me to stay behind alone and think I am Batman?" Green Arrow hammered Cyborg's breastplate and shook his head with a smile: "But Don’t worry, I activated the red tornado to guard the Hall of Justice, there shouldn’t be any problems. Besides, isn’t there the Dark Zhenglian?”
