Chapter 271 Super Girl's Special Troubles (3)
Gotham City.
Bruce took a stone that glowed green from Batwoman.
"Is this kryptonite?" Bruce held the kryptonite in his palm and felt a chill.
Such a small stone can make Kryptonians lose all their resistance.
"Batman prepared this thing to fight Superman."
Batwoman sighed, "But this thing is useless now."
Not always.
Bruce thought that he had put so much pressure on Supergirl, and considering the unpredictability of Kryptonians, if he didn't always have a few kryptonites with him, he might really fail.
At this point, Katoom elbowed Bruce with his wing.
"Give me two," he said. "I also need to protect myself."
Bruce put the kryptonite in his pocket quickly and looked at the owl blankly: "What did you say just now?"
"I told you to be careful when you sleep," Katum said with a grin.
……
Kayla didn't sleep all night.
Every time she closed her eyes, the face of the Hell Bat would appear in front of her, mocking her unscrupulously.
The hell bats haunted Kayla like a nightmare, making it impossible for her to close her eyes.
Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore, so she got up from the bed, hugged her pillow, and walked barefoot to the next room.
"Well?"
Alex felt someone touching her in a daze. She was startled and when she opened her eyes she found it was her sister, who had gotten into her bed at some point.
Kayla curled up in her arms like a frightened kitten.
"Why are you here?" Alex laughed.
"I can't sleep alone."
Kayla whispered, "I have dreams about that guy."
"Oh! All right."
Alex sighed, hugged his sister with his backhand, and patted her back gently, just like when they were little.
"Don't be afraid," Alex said, "You can beat him tomorrow."
"Will it go well?" Kayla muttered.
By shining amplified sunlight on him, could he really defeat the Batman?
"If I can't bear the energy..."
Alex interrupted her before she could finish her words.
"It will definitely go well! Don't overthink it."
Alex thought that if things didn't go well, Hellbat would become Kayla's lifelong demon.
The kind that you can never forget.
……
The next day, Supergirl put on her uniform and arrived at the Department of Supernatural Operations early, where Hank was already waiting for her.
"Looks like you're ready."
Hank crossed his arms and said, "Then come with me."
When she arrived at the military training ground, Keira saw several huge devices that looked like solar panels. They were gathered together and refracted sunlight to a focus.
"Stand there," Hank said, pointing at the focal point. "You can't leave all day today."
"it is good!"
Kayla nodded vigorously, and she kept talking to herself to encourage herself.
Although I had already prepared myself mentally, I would do it even if it meant overdrawing myself.
But when the time comes, people can't help but feel nervous.
Just as Kayla closed her eyes and prepared to step into the energy plate without hesitation, suddenly, a sound of music rang out from her.
"What's that sound?" Hank frowned immediately.
"S-Sorry!"
Kayla seemed a little flustered, she kept searching herself, "It's my cell phone ringing, I'll answer it first."
Hank watched as Supergirl pulled a cell phone out of her uniform like it was a magic trick, no one knew where it had been hidden before.
Kayla turned on the screen and the caller ID on it was completely unexpected.
Bruce Wayne.
Kayla quickly answered the phone, and Bruce's cold voice came over.
"Why didn't you come to work today?"
"I'm not feeling well and have already asked for leave," Kayla explained quickly.
The other party was obviously silent for a moment, and then asked: "Is it okay?"
"It's just a minor problem," Kayla said. "I'll just take a day off and I'll be back to work tomorrow."
Yes, tomorrow.
Kayla swore in her heart that she would stop the bat monster tonight and let the sun rise in National City as usual tomorrow!
"Ok."
At this moment, Bruce suddenly put away his previous attitude of being a bad boss, and said as if there was something else behind his words, "Take care of yourself."
Keira looked at the huge energy-gathering device in front of her. The light was refracted to one point, as if it could even burn through the alloy. She couldn't really say what would happen to her if she entered it.
Bruce's words "take care of yourself" came at the right time and gave her the final bit of courage she needed.
"I will!" Kayla replied with a smile.
After hanging up the phone, Kayla clenched her fists, said no more, and walked directly into the energy gathering device.
At this moment, the amplified sunlight burned her skin. Keira frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable.
It's as uncomfortable as a person who is full but still trying to force himself to swallow food.
Too much is as bad as too little. Even though sunlight is the source of energy for Kryptonians, this kind of focus of a hundred or a thousand times has already exceeded the limits of Supergirl.
"Hold it!"
Keira kept telling herself in her heart, "No matter how painful it is, you have to bear it!"
She must overcome this weakness, otherwise, she will never be able to hold her head up in front of the Batman!
"Wait, then……"
Kayla gritted her teeth, as if the bat monster was right in front of her, "I will definitely beat you down tonight!"
……
In the office, Bruce sneezed.
"Someone was saying something behind my back," Bruce said. "I guess it was Kayla."
"Scolding you is normal. You deserve it."
Katum was wearing black-framed glasses and was lying on the table studying something.
"What have you been looking at since just now?" Bruce leaned his head closer.
“It’s something you would never expect.”
Katoom said, "I made a special copy of Batwoman's plan to deal with you and helped her revise it."
“Isn’t this a very reasonable thing to do?”
Bruce didn't think it was strange. "If it were me, I would do the same thing."
Batwoman now guards the entire Gotham, shouldering unimaginable pressure and having to make plans for all possible accidents.
Even if she stands on Bruce's side now, she must consider the situation if the two sides become enemies one day.
This is for Gotham's sake.
In fact, when Bruce saw the plan, he felt a little relieved.
At the same time, he became interested.
"I'll help her write down a few of my weaknesses."
Bruce said, "If I lose control one day, there are ways to stop me." Hearing this, Katum suddenly raised his head and looked at Bruce blankly.
He suddenly thought of something very important, which he had overlooked before.
Although Bruce's current strength is not as good as the Batmen in the Dark Knights, he is definitely not weak.
This leads to another question.
Batman is different from other superheroes. His inner suspicion often leads him to not even trust himself.
When Batman feels that he is powerful enough, he will start to find ways to limit himself.
For example, creating a backup personality or building a terrifying robot.
All of this is to prevent himself from falling into darkness and no one can stop him.
Bruce's unintentional remark just now has revealed his thoughts.
"It's over."
Katum thought, Bruce is still Bruce. Even after spending four years with such an optimistic and cheerful owl, he still hasn't learned any of his strengths.
The anxiety hidden in his heart never dissipated.
"Sooner or later, Bruce will have to create a big daddy for himself."
Katum couldn't help but think that he must make some preparations in advance to avoid being implicated.
By this time, Bruce had already picked up his pen and added a few lines to Batwoman's anti-Bruce plan.
When Katum saw the first line, he couldn't hold it anymore.
"Compared to Bruce Wayne, the owl beside him is a greater threat, so be careful!"
"You are indeed a rebellious son!"
Katum was so angry that he laughed. Although what Bruce said was right, if one day both Bruce and himself turned bad, he would definitely be the greater threat, but was it necessary for Bruce to point this out?
This is an anti-Bruce plan, not an anti-Katoom plan!
"If you write like that, I won't show mercy either."
Katum also picked up a pen and started writing on the plan.
"Bruce is usually serious, but he has actually reached puberty and is fiery inside. The honey trap works wonders on him."
When Bruce saw this line of text, he immediately retorted: "You are spreading rumors!"
"You know it in your heart!" Katum sneered, "Do you think I don't understand you?"
“Then I’ll write too!”
Bruce added another line: "The owl is so greedy that he will grab every bone from the dog's mouth."
"Bullshit!" Katum was furious. "When have I ever snatched a bone?"
"So when did I become so hot inside?"
"I said yes!"
Katoom kicked Bruce in the face. Batboy couldn't bear it anymore and took out the Supreme Wand and stabbed Katoom.
For a moment, the whole office was in chaos.
Outside Bruce's office, the employees who were originally busy working raised their heads at the same time and looked at the door of Bruce's office with strange eyes.
There was a constant clanging sound inside, as if someone was smashing things.
"Is Mr. Wayne the only one in his office?" an employee lowered his head and asked the person at the next desk.
"Don't ask," said another employee. "Someone must have screwed up, and Mr. Wayne got mad."
As soon as these words came out, all the employees who heard them fell silent.
The next second, they suddenly lowered their heads, pretending to be working seriously, and the sound of keyboards clicking came one after another.
They prayed silently in their hearts.
It’s best if Mr. Wayne doesn’t get angry at himself!
……
Time passed and night fell.
Bruce, wearing a custom suit, got into a black car and slowly drove somewhere.
Although he deliberately pretended to be expressionless, Bruce could still see that the driver's eyes were constantly drifting towards the rearview mirror, looking at himself sitting in the back seat.
It’s not the driver’s fault.
The three bloodstains on his face were too conspicuous.
"Damn owl, can't you be a little gentler?"
Bruce cursed in his heart that the owl had no moral principles and hit him in the face, which greatly damaged his image.
Of course, he didn't suffer any loss, and in order to retaliate for this act, Bruce pulled out a handful of Katum's feathers.
This caused Owl to become furious and he even refused to ride in the same car with Bruce anymore. Now he was standing on the roof of the car, preferring the wind to being with Bruce.
The car was driving and stopped in front of a building.
Bruce got out of the car and told the driver, "Come pick me up in two hours."
"Okay, Mr. Wayne." The driver assigned by Batwoman said respectfully.
Bruce didn't let the driver wait for him there because he knew that the place next would be extremely dangerous.
But he must have a witness to testify that Bruce Wayne came to this place because he was invited.
After the driver drove away, Bruce moved his fingertips slightly and a bat dart appeared in his hand.
"Next, we just need to wait for everyone to gather."
……
How Martians are divided into different classes remains a mystery.
But when they become humans, they can only live according to the identity of the person they have transformed into.
At this moment, most of the wealthy people in National City are gathered together to hold this grand dinner.
This dinner was a little special.
The main door of the hall was closed and no one could enter or leave easily. Candles were lit in the hall and a gorgeous long table was placed in the middle.
There is a wide variety of food on the long table, but none of it is shocking.
What is really shocking is the tableware used to serve these dishes——
They were all naked young women!
All kinds of food were stuck on their bodies, showing an extreme absurdity.
As the saying goes, food, sex and nature are part of human nature. This group of wealthy people with fat stomachs use this twisted pleasure as a symbol to show their status.
There was a lot of drinking and conversation at the banquet, and the group of people seemed to be having a great time.
But if you listen carefully to what they talk about, it's really creepy.
“These humans really know how to enjoy themselves.”
A rich man said while drinking champagne, "Compared to them, what a hard life we had!"
"Fortunately, everything belongs to us now."
The person opposite also showed an ugly smile, "I now know that you don't need to do it yourself to eat people."
As long as you have money, the poor will come to you automatically.
The two men smiled at each other and clinked their wine glasses together.
Not long ago, they were experimental creatures created in laboratories, but now, they have taken control of the lifeline of human society.
A better life is waiting for you in the future!
They were fantasizing like this, but in the next second, the door of the banquet hall was kicked open and a strange man in black combat clothes walked in.
Bruce looked around and found the scene before him disgusting.
He snapped his fingers, and the food on the women's bodies automatically transformed into clothes, wrapping them tightly.
"Now, I give you ten seconds to leave."
He said coldly, "Otherwise, be careful of blood splashing on you."
Then he looked at a wealthy man in the corner. According to the information provided by Batwoman, this guy was 100% certain to be a Martian.
Then there's no need to hold back.
Bruce waved his hand and the bat dart flew out instantly. The next second, a red line appeared across the opponent's neck.
Blood gushed out instantly, the rich man fell to the ground, and his whole body changed into a white humanoid monster.
"Yo?"
Bruce was surprised and asked, "So after you die, you will return to your original form?"
