The Knights of the DC House

Sitting in Thomas Elliot's office chair, Bruce looked at the medical record that represented the Riddler and couldn't accept it for a while. With his knowledge, he could naturally understand what the medical record represented in the Riddler.

, terminal illness, the kind that has no cure. To be precise, it cannot be cured by conventional medical methods, but it does not mean that there are no other ways. But why did this medical record appear in Thomas Elliot's

On the table.

"Don't say that, my friend, there are many more notorious patients than you." 1

Involuntarily, Bruce's mind also flashed back to what Thomas Elliot had said to him when he was in the hospital. Only then did he understand what this sentence meant. Not only that, after obtaining this medical record

At the same time, Bruce also saw another document, about Arkham Asylum. This is a roster, which is the roster of doctors in Arkham Asylum. It is also in Thomas Elliot's case.

inside the office.

This also means one thing. If someone wants to sneak into Arkham Asylum and bring someone out, they can use this schedule to know the rotation information of the day and make arrangements. When these two documents are put together

Together, Bruce could basically outline a complete plan in his mind, but he always felt that there was something missing in this plan.

At this moment, the phone he put in his pocket to communicate with Alfred rang.

"Alfred, what happened."

"I hope you enjoyed your time in Dr. Thomas Elliot's office, sir."

"Yes, I do."

"Then you may be busy tonight. According to the feedback from the street camera just now, traces of unknown people's activities were detected at the sewer entrance of the First Street on Central Street. There is a person inside. You will be very interested."

"who."

"Bane."

When the name Bain rang on the other end of the phone, Bruce couldn't help but narrow his eyes. He also knew that this must be an action authorized by Silence. Without thinking much, he memorized the information found in Thomas Elliot's office.

After that, he left through the window.

Ten minutes later, Batman put on his battle uniform and cape and appeared at the sewer outlet where Alfred had provided traces of Bane's actions. Looking at this deep sewer outlet, and at this moment

The constant vandalism, smashing, and looting that occurred in the dark night of Gotham had a bit of a devil's cave feel, but Batman, who needed to know the truth, walked in fearlessly and began to track Bane and his party.

Outside, Ke Wen, who had stepped into Thomas Elliot's scheme and was temporarily kicked out, was sitting cross-legged on the building with his favorite Vita lemon tea next to him, admiring this thing that could only be done by his brother.

Tan's vision, as the unknown virus created by Thomas Elliot eroded the memory of Corwen's virus, continued to expand, and under its artificial control, it became the fuse that intensified the class conflicts in Gotham.

.

In Gotham today, rich people don't dare to appear on the streets at will, for fear that a guy will suddenly rush out from the street and kill them. As for the citizens of Gotham who have been infected with the virus, they have not yet received an explanation.

They also began to lose their minds gradually. This state of not knowing anything, but being able to feel the continuous decline of body functions, was enough to drive them crazy. Death is not terrible. What is terrible is not knowing anything and being unable to do anything. Wait.

The process of arrival of death.

In this state, people either remain firm or lose their minds. Since I am not having a good time, you people who do nothing will not have a good time either. The darkness of people's hearts has become more obvious in the city of Gotham.

This also caused the city of Gotham to fall into such a cycle of chaos. They began to do things that they had thought about but dared not do. Although it was only a part of the people, there were still police as the maintainers of order, maintaining this last line.

.

But as time goes by, slowly, it will spread throughout the city like a plague. And Ke Wen is sitting on the building, watching everything happening in Gotham, doing nothing.

"Is this another test? The darkness of the human heart is really unique in the city of Gotham, but okay, let's take a gamble and see what will be born in the depths of darkness.

.”

Drinking the Vita lemon tea in his hand, Ke Wen was also there, saying this to Dr. Manhattan who was watching all this from nowhere.

In the sewer, Batman continued to approach Bane and his group based on Alfred's route and his own tracking experience. At the same time, in the Batcave, due to being attacked by the alien single blast, Dick did not

Instead of following Batman, he was fighting fires around Gotham City with Damian, Raven, Helena and other family members.

The constant conflicts have turned Gotham into a city of sin, and they work with the police as the last line of defense to protect Gotham's order.

As for the security in the Batcave, in addition to the old butler Alfred, there is also the returned Catwoman and Damian's mother, Thalia, who are responsible for guarding the safety of the Batcave.

"I thought you were staying out and not coming back. How about going to Nandarbat to visit relatives this time?"

Catwoman in uniform was mixing coffee there, and after passing a cup to Thalia who had just returned, she also asked there.

"The situation is very bad. The entire League of Assassins has disappeared, but I also found out something." After taking the coffee from Catwoman, Thalia consciously handed Alfred a cup and said there.

"There's something wrong with Lazarus, isn't it, Thalia."

Just when Thalia was about to tell Catwoman what happened at the Assassin's League headquarters in Nandarbat, Batman's words came through the microphone and he said there.

The hand that drank the coffee paused slightly. Thalia did not expect that her lover would guess the problem so quickly.

"Yes, part of the Lazarus Pool has been stolen. According to the information I have received, I am afraid that my father's people are also in Gotham. Bain once trained in the Assassin's League. Do you really not need our help?

My love. But how do you know there is something wrong with Lhasa Road Pool?"

"No, stay well in the Bat Cave. I don't want any of you to get hurt. I can handle it. As for why there is a problem with the Lazarus Pool, I also deduced it based on the information I just obtained. Because of this, you are here

Staying in the Batcave will ensure your safety to the greatest extent, I..."

Before Batman could finish his words, the contact was cut off. This sudden situation also alerted Catwoman and Thalia. Alfred, who was responsible for maintaining the communication, also understood the problem, "There is something blocking the communication."

, it seems that Mr. Wayne has approached the location of Bain and the others, which should be the base camp."

"Wait, Alfred, please narrow down Bruce's route. I always feel that this route is a bit strange."

Because of Batman's sudden loss of contact, Catwoman also noticed that Batman's traveling route was a little weird at this time, and also said to Alfred. The old butler didn't say anything, and proportioned Batman's position at this time.

After zooming out, I also noticed the problem. Because the route Batman was traveling at this time was exactly in the underground sewer network of the Wayne Enterprises Building. This also meant that Bane's so-called base camp was in the Wayne Enterprises Building.

below.

After seeing this structural diagram, both Catwoman and Thalia understood the seriousness of the matter.

"No, Thalia, we have to help Bruce, Alfred, contact Diana and ask her to come back quickly, we... boom!"

Catwoman and Thalia, who immediately decided on the rescue operation and were about to rescue their lovers, had not had time to take the transportation in the Batcave. A shocking explosion occurred in the Batcave. From the exit of the Batcave,

The explosion directly blew the group of them away, and they lost consciousness in the explosion and dust.

On the other side, Batman, who was approaching Bane's base camp in the underground waterway, also noticed that he had entered a signal-shielded area. When he did not hear a response from the Batcave. But at this time, he could not possibly

Choosing to retreat, he was already so close to Bane's base camp. He had no reason to give up halfway. With confidence in his own skills, Batman continued to move forward.

Soon, he entered another world from a dark underground waterway. There were lights hanging on the walls everywhere, turning this dark underground world into daylight. At the same time, five steps and one post,

The level of vigilance at every step also made Batman understand that he had indeed entered the base camp of Bane and his team, and both Silence and the Joker would be here.

Then, the answer is very simple. All he has to do is sneak in and get everything he wants to know!

With the help of his familiarity with the topography of this underground water network, even with a searchlight, a prop that turns a dark environment into daylight, Batman can always find a blind spot in the perspective and easily avoid patrols. Moreover, he has also shown that he has never stopped.

The ability of top students who graduated early from the Assassin's Professional School, a professional school for assassins, appeared silently every time they appeared in front of these guards. With a wave of their black cloak, one person would disappear from the patrolling route.

The companions in front of him or behind him just didn't notice anything unusual about their teammates. As the number of patrols decreased one by one. By the time they noticed something was wrong, there was no room for counterattack. Batman suddenly appeared,

Just before they even uttered a warning and drew their guns to attack, Batman had already used his superb fighting skills to knock down these mercenaries.

Without making a single sound, I easily knocked down the surrounding patrol officers to the ground, easily completing the achievement of knocking down everyone who could see me.

Before Batman was ready to move forward, the sound of gates falling sounded in the underground world. Several gates fell, blocking Batman's forward and backward routes. The searchlights all shined at an angle,

Let Batman have no way to hide in the darkness, and this underground world has also become an alternative Colosseum under such an environment.

In such a Colosseum, Bane's tall figure also walked out from opposite Batman.

"Exquisite fighting skills, perfect stealth, and good at using dark environments to fight. Your fighting style is like art. Every time I watch it, I have to give you a thumbs up. Batman is worthy of being the most valued by ninja masters.

people."

"Bane!"

When he saw Bane appearing in front of him, Batman also understood that he had been careless after all, and he still stepped into Bane's trap. This man had fought against him several times, and he had escaped unscathed every time.

Mercenaries don't seem to be as simple as they thought.

"Exactly, I know the purpose of your coming and what you are thinking now, but if you run away, I can guarantee that the truth you want to know will never be found."

"The truth about what."

"Why Thomas Elliot died, and what are the trials from the past."

With these two words, Batman suppressed all the thoughts in his heart, because Bane grasped his point. The purpose of his coming here is to explore the truth, and the truth is right in front of him at this moment, one step away.

"Very good, then, for the sake of fairness, let's use the moves we learned from the Assassin's League to recruit who is the real assassin."

Seeing that Batman was not preparing to retreat, Bane also showed his sincerity, and the sound of machinery sounded behind him. The auxiliary spine that was originally fixed on his spine and used to inject poisonous medicine was removed from Bane's back.

Falling off. Like a black iron centipede, when it fell off, it also took away part of Bain's flesh and blood. Even Bain couldn't get through this kind of pain without saying a word.

After letting out a beast-like roar, Bane put the auxiliary spine aside casually, and at the same time opened his hands toward Batman.

"Now, it's just me, Batman."

After Bane gave up his most powerful advantage, Batman no longer had any scruples. Under the gaze of Bane's men, he also rushed towards Bane. As Bane said, he learned what he learned from the League of Assassins.

All the skills he learned were applied to Bain, but Bain, as a notorious mercenary, also studied in the Assassin League, although he was kicked out by the Ninja Master.

But one thing that cannot hinder him is that he is also a genius, especially now that there are no poisonous potions with side effects, and he is even more dangerous.

The same temptation, the same block, the same killing move, the battle between Batman and Bane is like facing a mirror. Both are the most consummate fighting masters, and any slight movement can become a

The weaknesses used by each other to catch each other may also be traps used to lure each other to attack. This time, Batman finally felt how difficult Bane was. This was different from the previous injection of poisonous potions to increase his strength and speed.

Dealing with his own Bane is different.

Every move and every move he makes requires Batman to deal with it carefully.

After another indiscriminate attack, Bane maintained his attack style and teased Batman, who was considered his fellow disciple.

"They were all taught by the same master, so they can't break the tricks. Batman, it seems that it's a bit difficult for you to know something from my mouth."

Batman was speechless. He just rushed forward again and kicked him with his most classic cloak gliding kick. But such an obvious move was easy for Bane to block. While catching Batman's move,

Bane also struck at the flaw vacated by Batman's move. The casserole-sized iron fist was imprinted on Batman's ribs, and a mouthful of bright red blood spat out from Batman's mouth, covering Bayne directly.

Grace's eyes.

Instantly losing his vision, the movements of Bane's hands were deformed. At the same time, Batman also used this opportunity to seize the opportunity to launch a fierce attack on Bane. One punch, two punches, each blow was enough to kill an adult.

The knocking attack hit Bane, causing him to retreat, but nothing could make him fall down. When Batman's combination of punches was almost done, Bane, who had been retreating, suddenly stopped.

With a quick step, he turned around and struck hard, and his fist hit Batman on the head.

The heavy blow to the head directly interrupted Batman's attack. He began to stagger and kept retreating. His vision began to blur, and Bane in front of him also had a double image.

Bain casually wiped the blood from his eyes and walked forward unhurriedly.

"Interesting off-beat tricks, using blindness, is this a trick you often use, Batman? Are you impatient? Losing a friend makes you so impatient? Are you so sure that Thomas Elliot must be a good man?

?Presumably, you also found a lot of little secrets in his office, huh?"

"ah!"

Bane's rhetorical question made Batman roar. He naturally understood what Bane was saying. He was telling himself that his friend who grew up with him may not be as kind as he thought.

Human kindness is just a mask he uses to confuse and disguise himself. But the emergence of this idea makes Batman feel that his friend has been insulted, or in other words, he has been insulted, that he would do it for such a person.

People feel sad.

The roar made Batman cheer up and attack Bane, but the attack with such a disturbed mind was full of flaws for Bane. He easily caught Batman's attack, and the fist in his hand was aimed at Batman's body.

Hit one part of the body, fast, accurate, and hard. The strength of each blow is getting heavier and heavier. The attack that continuously attacks one part is useless even if Batman is wearing armor. Under an attack like Bane's, it is directly

Vomiting blood and falling to the ground.

Batman fell to the ground and distanced himself from Bane. He also threw out the batarangs. The batarangs with smoke whirled around Bane, but Bane knocked them away one by one.

"Relying on this little trick?" While knocking off the batarang, Bane stepped forward, grabbed Batman's hand, and slammed it into the railing on the side. The arm blade of the hand armor was broken. At the same time, Batman also grabbed

Seizing this opportunity, he flipped the switch of the universal belt around his waist. The searchlight that originally illuminated the Colosseum into daylight lost its light. The entire underground world turned into darkness again, and Batman, who was in Bane's hands, also took the opportunity.

Break free, adjust your breathing, and hide in the darkness.

"Darkness is interesting. I think when you were in the Assassin's League, the ninja master told you that you must learn to use darkness. But I'm sorry, I was born in darkness!"

Following Bane's words, Batman, who was about to attack Bane from the side, was restrained by him again. The originally dark environment turned into daylight again, and Batman also lost all opportunities to fight back. The fist hit Batman

Just one punch to the abdomen almost made Batman unable to breathe. Taking advantage of this, Bane raised Batman over his head, making it impossible for him to break free from his hands.

"You lost, Batman, and as the end of this beast battle, I will tell you the so-called truth for free. The so-called past trials are your family history, and it is not as you imagined.

Glorious, including your parents, and Thomas Elliot, he was just an overly curious guy. He happened to be in the way, so we just happened to kill him. Look at the top of your head. This will break your body and mind.

first step."

Batman, who was still conscious, looked at the top. The explosives that had been installed exploded at this moment, blowing up the soil above his head, revealing lights and various equipment. This is the military technology of Wayne Enterprises.

Department, but now, no longer.

"Thanks to Wayne Enterprises for everything they have provided, the people of Gotham City will use these hands to destroy their city and themselves, but not before that."

Feeling the sudden increase in force on his spine, Batman seemed to be able to sense what kind of outcome he would face, but he could not break free and could only let Bane smash himself over his head towards his knees.

There was a crisp sound of broken bones, and Batman felt that he had lost control of his lower limbs, and fell to the ground. He threw Batman aside at will, and Bane looked at Batman who had lost his fighting power, and the blood in his heart also

He couldn't help but speed up, and he did it. He defeated the fear in his heart, ever since he was humiliated at the hands of Coven, a guy who copied Batman's armor and called himself the Arkham Knight.

There is also a shadow in Bane's heart. This is the terrible thing about fear gas. It cures the neurological fear effect, but it does not mean that the psychological fear can be eliminated. But just now, he successfully defeated Batman and put this

The fear rooted in his heart was eliminated, and this joy made him roar loudly in this underground world.

After repeated heavy blows, Batman gradually lost consciousness, while Bane squatted in front of him and said these words.

"Don't be nervous, we won't let you die so quickly. Your body and mind haven't been truly defeated yet. You can still raise your head and look ahead. There are surprises waiting for you."

Looking up following Bane's words, Batman also saw such a scene. Silent, the Joker just walked through the corridor, and among them were his two lovers, Catwoman Selina Kyle and Thalia.

He was carried on their shoulders, and the leader walking towards him was the alien single-body Hayate who killed his friend Thomas Elliot.

What he feared most happened. He had been deliberately staying away from the people around him who cared about him, just to protect them. But when he learned to accept it and wanted to maintain this beauty, it was engraved in his destiny.

The curse ruthlessly destroys everything, and everything develops in the direction that you least want to see.

"Have a good sleep, Batboy. When you wake up, we will have a good chat, haha, hahaha!"

He gently placed the unconscious Catwoman and Thalia next to Batman, with a maniacal laugh, and the Joker stepped on Batman's face, causing him to completely lose consciousness.
