What bad intentions could Batman have?

"...You have your own goals, and you have the right to go and achieve them, but...I suggest that we work together so that we can help each other."

The Alps.

In an old castle.

You see...My name is Maxwell Lauder.

I was born into a wealthy family. My father, Albert Lauder, was a good man, a good husband, and an even better father to his son. He was in charge of the commercial operations of a large pharmaceutical company, and he invented a diet pill with a strong effect.

This diet pill made him rich, but when I was a teenager, my father discovered that this diet pill caused cancer.

He was stupid enough to announce the fact that this drug caused cancer, then apologized for it, then lost all his family wealth, and finally committed suicide cowardly.

At my father's funeral, my mother told me that my father was too weak and too compassionate. If it were her, she would definitely cover it up instead of admitting it or even committing suicide.

She told me that I must deprive those who I think don't deserve everything at all costs...until they have nothing.

This sentence has become my life creed.

After I graduated from college, I joined a global peacekeeping organization, the government-run "Shogi Association". Because of my outstanding performance, I quickly became the No. 2 person in the organization.

But that was not enough. I did not join the Shogi Association to become the No. 2 person.

So, when the Shogi Association's headquarters was attacked by cultists, they surrounded the actual leader of the Shogi Association and me.

That was a desperate situation, right? Isolated and helpless, surrounded by enemies...

But this was a ladder for me to climb up.

I have always consciously hidden my superpowers. As I grow older, my mind control ability is constantly improving, but I have almost never revealed the fact that I have superpowers to anyone.

So at that moment, I manipulated my boss to hold the grenade and die with the cultists.

I naturally became one of the co-leaders of the Shogi Association, but I did not want to be "co-leaders". So the other leaders were either expelled or died on the spot due to various events, and finally I became the only leader.

Everything is perfect, right? Shortly after I completely mastered the Shogi Club, Brainiac invaded the Earth. I was the first to be recruited by the government.

I was originally going to have the power to form a global organization of superhumans and humans to deal with such crises. However, this promise eventually became a mirage, when Batman stepped up and solved the crisis on his own. The government also established the Eye Society led by Amanda Waller and Colonel Steve Trev, and established contact with Batman.

As for my Shogi Club? I was abandoned. Batman cut off my ladder to climb. He formed the Justice League afterwards, and this global superhero league organization was supposed to follow my lead. I should be the one who controls the world's superpowers and saves the earth!

But I soon realized two important reasons why I was abandoned:

First, I am not strong enough.

Second, I don't have the ability to control the entire Justice League like Batman. I can't control them, but Batman can arrange them like chess pieces.

This is a problem that must be solved.

As long as I control the Justice League, I can completely control them to transform the earth into what I want, and I can use the power of the entire league to practice complete justice on the entire planet.

No one can commit a crime, and no one will commit a crime. All wars will end completely without a cause, because all weapons will be destroyed by me. There will be no more famine and no more pain.

I will create... a brand new era.

"You may be able to save the world, Maxwell Lord, but why should we do this?"

Johnny Solo's head is a mask, his eyes flickering slightly, showing a struggle: "Since the King of Tears gave me a new life, I have been connected to the energy of multiple dimensions, and this place was also multiple..."

"Johnny Solo is right, the Emerald Eye of Ekron can feel that time is missing... I must find the Legion." The Emerald Queen said.

She stroked the huge eyes suspended in the air, with worry in her eyes.

(Note: The Emerald Queen mentioned the Legion of Super Heroes in the 30th century, but because Dr. Manhattan stole ten years of DC and caused the Flashpoint event, the timeline was restarted, causing this Legion and a large number of heroes in this Legion, such as Saturn Girl and Brainiac 5, to be erased from history. However, the Emerald Queen retained some memories before the time restart) Maxwell Lord said: "Oh, Emerald Queen, I promise you that I can help you search, I know some information." He looked sincere, and the Emerald Queen looked into his eyes. After a while, she nodded in a daze: "Yes, you are right." "Then you should answer me, Pony..." Violent Wolf asked: "How can we know that you didn't use that crappy trick of mind control on us?" "I dare not do this to you, Violent Wolf." Maxwell Lord looked at Violent Wolf, then activated his mind control ability and output fiercely to Violent Wolf.

As he activated his ability, he said, "Everyone knows you will kill anyone who tries to use your brain."

As Laud said this, he secretly wiped the blood that was about to flow out of his nose. This was the price of activating his ability.

And Baolang was also slightly dazed, and then he quickly became happy: "You are fucking right, if you dare to do this to the only tough guy, I will kill you, you bastard bitch!"

"We have been through this old road in the past, Laud, do you have anything different from the past?" asked the assassin Rostam holding a flaming blade.

"We have one thing in common, Rostam, hatred." Maxwell Lord said, "If you help me achieve my goal, you will get extra benefits when you take revenge on Amanda Waller, the person I hate the most."

"Maxwell is right." Dr. Polaris was also in a trance for a moment, and then he was a little mentally abnormal and furious: "Amanda Waller needs to pay the price for everything we did!"

"I'm glad you have the same opinion as me, Dr. Polaris." Lord said, "Your control of metal is of great help to our cause."

"Okay." Johnny Solo, who had a mask on his head, said.

"Let's assume that we agreed to your conditions, and what do you plan to do with us?"

"There is one more thing to do before we take action against Amanda Waller."

Maxwell Lord turned his head and looked at everyone he controlled.

He said:

"The place we are going to is extremely dangerous, but I know you are very experienced in this matter."

"What about the heroes? Batman?" Dr. Polaris asked: "You are not stupid enough to think that a runaway Cheetah can delay Batman so that he has no time to come back, right?"

"Of course not."

Maxwell Lord said: "I have other plans."

He paced slowly: "For so many years, Batman has been constantly changing different Robins, but you know, I got the news. I am afraid that this time Batman's new Robin is different from the past. That Robin is his son, his biological son. To be honest, I was a little surprised when I found this. Batman used to have no soft spots or weaknesses, but now he has them."

"His love for children will interfere with his judgment, causing him to make wrong decisions or get wrong conclusions. I can use this to trap Batman to death, at least so that he can't interfere with us in a short time."

Maxwell Lord said: "As for the other members of the Justice League, I have also prepared gift packs for each of them. When they have the opportunity to free their hands to stop us, everything will be over."

" Not to mention that Batman himself was trapped. Even if he was not trapped, he could not resist all of you at the same time -I carefully studied Batman's ability composition. The means of taking is not to be done out of thin air, but that I need to destroy these instruments in advance through various instruments, and then cut off the Justice Alliance. "Even if he stepped back, there were two members of the league who came to the scene without any harm. Too right. "Chen Tao said. "My dearest ally, if something goes wrong, you will help me, right?"

"What are you doing?"

There was a crunching sound from the other end of the phone. It was Speedmaster chewing his kryptonite.

The sound sounded exactly like a groundhog.

"Our agreement does not include me helping you fight." Superman said, "And things are complicated on my side. You haven't even fulfilled your previous promise. Johnny Quick and Deathstorm are just sitting there stupidly. What about the plan you promised me to strengthen them?" "Lex Luthor is still preparing. Come on, buddy, you have to admit that the strengthening plan is not so easy to make. But I guarantee that their strengthening plans will quickly increase their strength, instead of having to eat kryptonite slowly like you do." Chen Tao's words made sense, and Superman's attitude softened a bit: "But this is not enough. Our agreement does not..." "I am willing to provide you with more kryptonite." He heard Batman say: "More raw materials for making kryptonite as a reward for your action this time." Superman narrowed his eyes. Batman's conditions were already very generous, but he still wanted to squeeze more. "It's still not enough." Superman said: "Even without you, I can collect raw materials myself. You can't use what I can get in exchange for my chance to take action."

Then he felt that Batman on the other side of the phone was silent for a while.

"Plus an opportunity to use the Speed ​​Force." Chen Tao said: "You also know the Speed ​​Force, right?"

"Johnny Quick's power, he can use this power to turn himself from a weak waste into a sprinter. And you?"

"Haven't you ever thought that you also have the Speed ​​Force?"

"Think about it, it turns out that your speed is already fast enough, and you can also resist magic, and you are invulnerable to swords and guns. Make you faster, and the enemy can't even catch the corner of your clothes."

Chen Tao persuaded: "This is definitely a good choice."

...

...

...

In the corridor, Maxwell Lord avoided the newly recruited former suicide squad members and quietly appeared in a room in the fortress.

As a silver-white portal opened, a beautiful woman walked out of the door. It was the Super Queen of the Crime Syndicate.

"What's the matter? Dear--" Maxwell Lord sat on the sofa without saying a word. Seeing this, the Super Queen twisted her waist and walked towards him.

As she walked, she lowered her head slightly: "Why are you so sad? Our deal has been reached." She took out a small bottle of deep red blood from between her breasts: "Here, here you go. Wonder Woman's blood. Did Leopard's blood work before? You should give me what I want." Blood came out of Maxiwell Lord's nose, which made the Super Queen's expression change. "Don't think about using your mind control ability on me. I'm a demigod, and your mind control ability is ineffective on me." The scandal was discovered, but Maxiwell Lord didn't mean to apologize at all. "You Amazons are trouble." He said, "You and your princess are the same." The Super Queen did not correct Maxiwell Lord's misunderstanding. She certainly wouldn't be stupid enough to tell him that she was not a member of Wonder Woman's tribe. Their relationship was a transaction, and that was all. So the Super Queen's voice became a little colder: "For the sake of the deal, I won't mind your behavior that's like a scorpion's instinct to sting people." She said: "But you'd better help me finish that thing quickly, before Superman finds out." Lord saw that the other party had already reached out to pinch the slavery lasso around his waist. He immediately changed his words: "Of course, of course." "I will definitely keep my promise."
