[Comprehensive Yingmei] Really nothing happened

In addition to the head, there are some places on Yemengard's body that are also aching - that is, she was stepped on by other people who lost their minds after she fell down on the spot - maybe someone who didn't pay attention to her feet tripped and fell on her damage caused.

This is really... an unthinkable disaster...

Yemengard stood up slowly while leaning on the wall.

The Scarecrow is not the kind of villain who takes pleasure in killing. He acts with a strong purpose—although it is not known what the purpose is so far, but in any case, this beam is settled.

So, the next question: where is the scarecrow?

It is unlikely that he is in the laboratory building, where the fear gas is spreading everywhere; it is also impossible to be far away, because then there is no way to control the situation.That is to say...

Yemengard raised his head.

The rooftop - that's the most likely place.Of course, the Scarecrow knows far more about this place than she does, and might know what's in this building... uh, secret basement or something, and hide there.

Yemengard went to the elevator door and took a look.Unfortunately, the button appears to have been smashed.In other words, she can only go up.

Yemengard shrugged and walked towards the stairwell.

……

Fear is an art.The Scarecrow has always thought so, and he's an expert at spreading fear.

His potion allows people to face their deepest fears, and it is clear that not everyone can overcome themselves.

And if you want to deal with him, of course there is no way (otherwise, why would he be imprisoned back to Arkham again and again), the first is, as mentioned above, people who are strong enough can overcome fear; the second... is injection A vaccine against fear gas, although there will be some side effects, is obviously harmless.But the vaccine is of course not that easy to get.

As for the third, it is even rarer: the person feels no fear.Yes... just like Brother Jue.

Obviously, Yermungandr is the last one.

Although she can't remember anything now, deep down, she doesn't understand that she is still completely different from other human beings.

This difference... How should I put it, it's a bit like the gap between Earthlings and aliens (huh?), but it's much bigger than that.

Let's put it this way: We all know about antisocial personality disorder, and after watching TV shows over the years, we must know a little bit about them.

People with antisocial personality disorder cannot empathize.Although similar in appearance, their way of thinking is vastly different.

Jormungandr... From her point of view, most of human thoughts are superficial, and certain considerations... how should I put it, made her feel...well, completely unable to look directly at it.

This is when Yermungandr has lived as a human being for a period of time, but before... probably similar to how humans feel when they look at ants.

……

Jormungandr had never been to a rooftop before.

Although I have attended many classes, but—the laboratory building is here for experiments, unless there is an accident that causes toxic gas to leak, otherwise there is no need to go there.Besides, it is unlikely that anyone will engage in activities on the rooftop.

Wait a minute... isn't this a "toxic gas leak" situation?

However, Yermungandr's brain activity is of course not that rich, and this laboratory building is not high, so she quickly reached the highest floor.

She didn't stand on tiptoe on purpose, but the sound of her footsteps was still very light, and it was impossible to notice without paying close attention.And the person who should be paying attention to the surrounding environment is not doing so.

— because he has more important things to do.

……

The scarecrow stood on the roof with a smug face.

Soon, my plan will be successful, and this city will finally fall into the palm of my hand!

His past plans always fell short due to various reasons, but this time, his newly developed fear gas is not so easy to crack!

Although he paid a small price for this...but that doesn't matter!

No... The Scarecrow suddenly fell into confusion.

Why would he feel that he "paid a small price"?The funds paid for the development of a new type of poisonous gas...that was originally robbed by him, and it is not considered a "price", so what does this refer to?

But... After all, he was a mental patient, so his attention was quickly diverted.

It looks like Batman will be here soon.

He prepared two kinds of poison gas this time, the first one is the one he spread in the laboratory building, and the second one... is specially prepared for Batman next.After being planted so many times in his hands, a person with a brain will learn to have a long memory.

Batman's willpower should not be underestimated, but this time, it's not just a matter of willpower.

Heh... this time, there will be absolutely no accidents!

……

After seeing the scarecrow with a bruised nose and a swollen face and a trance-like expression being tied up and sent to a police car, Batman was finally able to leave without maintaining his aloof personality.

He had made sufficient preparations (Batman always had Plan B) before he came here to find the Scarecrow and prepare to deal with him, but... the moment he saw the Scarecrow, he was tricked.

Although it's not like I haven't experienced the experience of inhaling fear gas before, but this time... It's completely different from the previous feeling.

How should I put it...it's not just a matter of "more real"...that's already "capable of completely destroying a person's soul".

A person's deepest fear must be something or something closely related to his/her past.

Although there is a saying that "humans are most afraid of the unknown", it is precisely because "unknown" is "unknown" that it is difficult to manifest it.

All in all... Batman was tricked and saw his worst fears.

I think everyone knows exactly what he saw, so I won’t go into details.

Batman is very determined.He's confronted alien overlords and wrestled face-to-face with synonymous madness.

But never before has he been under such pressure.

As if seeing something invisible, the eyes could not convert the received signal into understandable information, and fell into endless confusion.The brain cannot create corresponding emotions based on everything it already knows.

Obviously that is everything that is all too familiar, but it is like a piece of glass that cannot be broken, which cannot be approached or touched.

—and the glass was shattered.

But it wasn't just the glass that was broken, it was everything that made up the illusion, and...

what else?

In the end, it was not himself who broke the illusion, but... someone else?or something?he doesn't know too well

Just when he was deeply hallucinating, he suddenly had a strange feeling, which made him wake up all of a sudden.

Then he saw the scarecrow lying on the ground with a bruised nose and a swollen face.

Fittingly, the sound of sirens is coming from far to near.

……

After returning to the Batcave, Batman was finally able to calm down and think about what happened today.

First, the Scarecrow developed a new type of poisonous gas.The effect of this poisonous gas is far greater than the previous version, and a vaccine for detoxification must be developed as soon as possible.

And then... the Scarecrow wasn't what he knocked down.

He had been a little dazed before, and he didn't think about it very well, but he realized it after he calmed down.

Judging from the scars on the scarecrow's face (hidden by clothes), it can be judged that the man is relatively short in stature, but not weak in strength.

There were no bullet holes and shell casings at the scene, indicating that their fight was only close hand to hand.

The scarecrow's melee strength is not weak, but there is not much blood on the ground.Considering that he was still at the scene but was not affected, it is very likely that the man suppressed the scarecrow in the first place - those scars were probably because the other party felt that it was not enough to relieve the scarecrow so soon.

He checked the time and found that he had not been hallucinating for a long time. The man could not have invaded from the outside by means of transportation such as a helicopter.

... Having said that, no one would come all the way here just to beat the scarecrow for Ki Mimi.

Then, that person must have run from the laboratory building to the rooftop.

But in the laboratory building, there is also the fear gas spread by the scarecrow... that is to say...

Things are not that simple.He must find this person.

With a sullen face, Batman called out the monitoring of the laboratory building today.

Although it is very likely that the person has already dealt with the monitoring and processing... huh?

The laboratory building is not very high, but the area is not small, and monitoring is only installed in the corridors. Although it was considered that some criminals might come to steal chemical materials to make bombs, there are still some dead spots. .

Batman would have been ready to watch for hours.His IQ is extremely high, and it is not difficult to watch several shots at [-]x speed at the same time.

It didn't take long for him to find his target.

After the poisonous fear was dispersed, that extraordinarily calm figure was extremely eye-catching.

Batman quickly searches the Gotham University database for the girl's (???) profile.

In terms of height, she fit the requirements, but... oh, it turned out.

This little girl... um, from Academy X, is she a mutant?That would explain it.

Batman and Professor X have little to do with each other, but Bruce Wayne and Charles Xavier have known each other for a long time.

Because... How should I put it, the circle of rich people is not that big, and they will always have a chance to meet.

Although not explicitly stated, it is not a secret that Professor X is Charles Xavier.

Therefore, Bruce Wayne, who has another identity as Batman, will naturally not choose to fight against people at will.In fact, because there is no overlapping (both parents dead + rich) relationship, the two have a lot in common.

And Professor X doesn't think about people at will, and Bruce has never shown any hostility to mutants, so he has never discovered another identity of this friend.
