Chapter 134 Zur En Ah!
in reality.
Katum grabbed Bruce's unconscious body and flew towards the villa.
He hummed a song that he was familiar with in his previous life: "Mom is the best in the world..."
When he flew to the villa, he casually threw Bruce's body onto the sofa.
Batboy still had his eyes closed, showing no signs of waking up.
"I don't know what you are dreaming about now."
Owl sighed, "You sleep so peacefully, someone who doesn't know would think you're dead."
As soon as he finished speaking, a violent vibration sound suddenly came from the distance.
Katum looked up and saw a figure hovering above the city in the distance, continuously firing laser beams.
"How come the motherland has become so small and is laughing so crazily?"
Katoom frowned, remembering what Martha had said before.
Bruce's life shouldn't be so fragile, I want to give him a complete life...
"So that's it."
Katum sighed deeply, "Even though she's Martha, she's still a clown after all? She'll do anything to achieve her goals."
Ordinary criminals would never think of this method.
It's a bit too crazy.
The owl turned to look at the sleeping Bruce.
"It's about time you open your eyes, even if it's not you who wakes up."
……
The thinking field of the motherland, the room of the laboratory.
Bruce watched Homelander on the screen, constantly causing destruction, crying and screaming in the city, and pain was spreading.
In the next room, the little countryman is asking questions.
"What do you mean by your Robin? Do you mean you need my help?"
"Of course I can help you if you ask me, but I have to come back here afterwards."
"By the way, you are a hero of justice, so what is your name? All superheroes have names!"
Bruce didn't answer, he just slowly closed his eyes.
Entered the dream that Martha had woven for him.
It’s still Gotham, it’s still Wayne Manor, it’s still... that warm home.
"Bruce, you're back!"
Martha played the role of a mother, straightening Bruce's collar.
Her eyes were gentle: "You should have understood by now that no matter how far you are away from home, you will eventually return to your mother."
"Mother."
Bruce said softly, "Is it necessary to go to this extent? Why should our feud involve innocent people?"
Isn't the purpose of Homelander's wanton destruction in the city to make Bruce feel guilty and make him bow to Martha?
Either accept Martha's terms or watch the Homelanders destroy the country.
"You still don't understand my determination."
Martha leaned down and gave Bruce a gentle kiss on the forehead.
“When I came into this world, I had already decided that I would do whatever it takes to achieve my goal.
“I used Huey to confirm whether you would stop him from killing people. If you had just stood by and watched, I wouldn’t have had to let Homelander wreak havoc now.
"I kept indoctrinating Homelander with the Joker's ideology and coaxed him into drinking diluted Joker virus in order to give him the Joker's personality and drive him crazy.
“Even the Nth metal I brought was to transform his body and make him more like you.
"Bruce, no matter how crazy I am, it's all for you in the end."
Martha suddenly hugged Bruce in her arms.
“I have been following you, and I have watched every video of yours since you joined the Seven Team countless times.
“Every time I watch it, I become more determined.
“It’s okay if you hate me now, you can erase this memory later and start over.
"But Bruce, the premise of everything is that you must come back with me!"
Bruce felt the warmth of his mother's embrace. It felt real, not like a dream.
He hasn't been held by his mother for five years.
but……
He can't sink!
"Mom," Bruce whispered, "You're really crazy."
"Did you just know?"
Martha put her hand against her son's face and spoke softly.
Bruce raised his head and looked through the window at Gotham outside.
"Mom, you may not understand what kind of determination I have made."
He raised his hand, and a gift box wrapped in black and with a yellow ribbon appeared in his hand.
It was a gift from Katoom.
When he feels the need to open it, he can open it.
Well, now is the time.
"Mom, this is never what I wanted. I never thought of making others suffer for my own happiness.
"On the contrary, for the happiness of Gotham, I would rather suffer myself."
He embraced Martha and untied the ribbon of the gift box behind her back.
A small red metal box fell from the gift box into his hands.
He had seen that thing before.
Bat launcher?
No, no!
Bruce held the bat launcher in his hand and flipped over to his back.
Then he saw that, behind the bat launcher, there was a sticker.
It was a grinning owl.
Seeing the familiar owl, Bruce couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.
Is that so?
He had indeed seen it many times, in the small nest workshop built by Katum, the owl huddled in front of the workbench, busy with something unknown.
Now he finally knows.
The bat launcher sent by Barbatos is no longer a bat launcher.
A more appropriate name for it is the Owl Launcher.
"Mother."
Bruce suddenly buried his head in Martha's arms, his voice trembling as he tried hard to hold back his tears.
"There has never been a moment when I felt that I was not your child, and there has never been a moment when I did not think about you and daddy.
"But as a son, I cannot bear to watch you continue to make mistakes.
"Mom, if I can't save you from your mistakes, let Gotham burn!"
Martha, who was originally immersed in the hug, suddenly opened her eyes and realized that something was wrong.
Bruce loosened his embrace with her and slowly backed away.
"What are you going to do?" Martha said blankly, "It's useless. You can't escape this dream."
"I know."
Bruce lowered his head and looked at the Owl Launcher in his hand.
“If you think of this as a dream, it might be a lot easier.
“But how could I think that?
“Because in my hands, I’m holding this Owl launcher.
"but me--"
Bruce looked up, tears streaming down his face.
Bruce's gaze was particularly firm as he looked at Martha, who looked worried.
“I’m Batman!
"From Zurn'a!"
boom--
At this moment, everything in front of Bruce shattered.
Martha and Gotham disappeared, and in their place, the world inside Bruce's mind became clearer and clearer.
Everyone has his own palace of thought.
And what belongs to Bruce is a planet called Zur'na!
He looked up and the sky was burning.
Bruce is in the midst of ruins, his mind palace being built.
Buildings rose from the ground, forming the Gotham that Bruce remembered.
On a huge stone platform suspended in the void, black stone pillars stand tall, forming a huge temple.
Bruce took a step out of thin air, and a staircase automatically flew down from under his feet.
Countless past events were integrated before him, becoming page after page in the great book named Bruce.
Bruce, take the long steps to self-achievement!
A huge clock wheel appeared behind him, and the hands rotated counterclockwise.
With every step Bruce took, he was a little closer.
Finally, he came to the stone platform in the void and entered the temple of thought.
Above the temple, there is a carving of a giant bat. Under the bat is a towering throne and six different figures on its side.
Bruce was very familiar with those six figures, because they were the illusions of the Justice League members that he created.
They looked at him in silence.
And on that throne, a figure sat there.
He has the same face as Bruce, but his eyes are extremely indifferent.
This is Bruce's alter ego.
Zur N'A Batman.
Bruce walked towards the throne, and a phantom took a step forward, trying to stop his progress.
It is Superman's illusion, and it is also the only illusion that Bruce has ever had blessed by the Patronus.
Bruce just glanced at him, and the Superman illusion stopped all subsequent movements.
Zu Bat looked at Bruce and said calmly: "Here comes with bad intentions..."
"I'm not the one who came."
Bruce has arrived in front of the throne, "This is my world!"
He stretched out his hand, grabbed Zur'na's collar, and with a little force, he pulled the second personality up from the throne of thought and threw it to the ground.
"This is my thinking, and I should have the final say on everything!"
Bruce turned around and sat on his own throne.
"I don't know when you were born, maybe when I left Gotham? Maybe when I first came into contact with metal? Or - have you always been with me?
"But there is one thing you have to remember, you are only the second personality! Don't overstep your boundaries!"
Bruce declares the sovereignty of his thoughts to the Batman.
Although the Batman's eyes were fierce, he was also Bruce and would not bow to anyone.
There will be a clash between personalities.
But suddenly, the cry of an owl was heard in the void.
"Cuckoo-"
With a bang, a strange little owl appeared behind Zu Bat.
This owl is a bit round in shape. It is obviously a bird, but it is wearing a Batman uniform.
When the owl appeared, the originally restless Zu Bat suddenly seemed to be still. Except for the eyes that could move, it could not do anything else.
"You kid, you finally opened the gift box!"
The little owl laughed, "How is your godfather? Is he awesome?"
Bruce looked at the owl and sensed a hint of Katoom in him.
But why is he wearing a Batman uniform?
The little owl flew away from Zu Bat, and Zu Bat immediately regained the ability to move.
"I am the backup plan designed by King Katum specifically for Zubat."
The little owl introduced himself, "You can think of me as King Katoom's alter ego! My name is Katoom II!"
In order to deal with Batman's second personality, the solution given by the Godfather of Owls is to create a second personality of his own.
Let the second pair with the second, and personality control personality.
Ka II said: "From now on, as long as I am in this palace, Zuba will always be suppressed!"
Bruce nodded, Katum had indeed thought of the most comprehensive solution.
"Zu Bat, my current body is unconscious and I need a personality to stop Homelander. This mission is for you!"
Bruce lowered his head, "I don't care what you do specifically, Katoom will be watching you in reality!"
Zu Bat's eyes were uncertain and he was obviously unwilling to cooperate.
Bruce's tone softened a bit, "A lot of innocent people are going to die if you don't help. This is to save mom's mistake."
After hearing these words, Zu Bat's expression relaxed a little.
No matter what, he is still Batman.
……
Inside the villa, Bruce's eyelids suddenly began to twitch as he lay on the sofa.
Then he opened his eyes.
"It seems Bruce didn't betray my trust."
The owl looked as if it had expected this. "Well, what should I call you? Bruce, or Zur'en?"
"up to you."
Zu Bat said coldly, "I don't have time to chat with you. I need to gather a group of seven people immediately."
Gather all your strength to stop the rebellion of our countrymen.
The Batman is going to fight Homelander!
