Chapter 69 A Contingency Plan
Boom!
That was the sound of the figure crashing to the ground. A large amount of broken bricks and tiles exploded and flew in all directions as he fell without slowing down.
Boom!
That was the sound of the scarecrow's heartbeat. A nameless fear rose from his body, like the panicked heartbeat when he woke up in the middle of the night, or like an unexpected fact grinning maliciously right in front of him.
"It's you."
He said.
The moonlight was bright and clear. Batman reached out his hand, and the silvery moonlight was actually held firmly in his palm!
He grabbed that silvery-white light and waved it around, then half of his body disintegrated into pure darkness!
"This is impossible!" the scarecrow roared. "Attack, claws! Seize him!"
"Still unable to synchronize two Batmen simultaneously..."
Chen Tao looked at his arm, which had rotted into silver light and then returned to its broken state as a bat. It had not transformed into the giant green claw of the bat dragon as he had envisioned.
A sharp pain shot through him, as if protesting against his forced transformation.
"Tsk, anyway, the Broken Bat is enough to deal with them."
Chen Tao gently turned his body to the side, letting the sharp claws and blades pierce his fluttering body.
"It's alright, as long as your torso and brain aren't damaged, you'll be fine. Nano Batman is practically immune to this kind of physical attack."
He pondered silently, then raised his hand:
"Try this first."
Tiny, fluttering nanobots flew toward the claws.
The muscular, clawed assassin instinctively raised his arms, but nothing happened.
"Nanobats should be able to absorb the genetic files of any organisms they come into contact with."
Chen Tao thought silently, "Logically, they should all have been eroded by the nanobots and dissolved like tofu."
He looked at the unharmed man and said, "But that's not the case—is it amber gold? I'm afraid so."
Something is preventing their cells from being taken over by nanobots...
The amber gold had fused with their cells; the nanobots were like ants gnawing at a hard metal. What a nuisance.
"But that doesn't mean I'm helpless."
Chen Tao grinned slightly, and even the Claw Assassin, who had been a corpse for hundreds of years, felt a chill run down his spine when stared at by his cold, dark yellow eyes.
"If you can't simply and brutally destroy the opponent at the cellular level, then use physical methods directly."
The black sand in the air slowly gathered into blades, like a fluttering flag suddenly transforming into a graceful ribbon, and then...
呲!
Crunch, crunch, crunch, crunch!
A sickening sound rang out from the clawed assassin's forehead as the assassin struggled to attack that part of Chen Tao's body, using fists, blades, and even some kind of fighting technique that seemed to shatter the air...
But none of it worked.
These things struck the fluttering black ribbon, shattering it, but instantly repairing themselves and continuing to exert their force.
Squeak squeak squeak squeak!
First, the mask on his scalp was split open, revealing the terrifying, seemingly expressionless owl mask. Batman showed everyone that if the mask was cut in half, there was nothing more than an ordinary person with graying temples and a terrified face underneath.
Frail as an infant.
"No, no, no, let me go! The Court of Owls... the Court of Owls will..."
Other claws pounced, frantically trying to save their companion.
They reached out to grasp at the floating death in the air, as if trying to catch a wisp of breeze, a flowing spring, or a dying scream.
The fine black gauze slipped through their fingertips and between the blades, without lingering for a moment.
"Attack Batman, he..."
Chen Tao leaped into the air, a mere 10 meters, a very short distance.
The black sand swirling in the air coalesced into his cloak, resembling more like wings of death unfurling behind him.
No amount of jumping could reach him. Even if they managed to jump high enough to get close, they would be slapped to the ground by the giant hand formed by the nanobots flowing in the air, like an agile human slapping a cricket that keeps jumping up from the ground.
"Damn it, what's going on? Attack him! Aren't you the Court of Owls? How can you be losing... Damn it, Batman, how could he...?"
The scarecrow said, "This isn't the Batman I know..."
Then, immediately afterward, my scalp started to crack.
His already dry, dark gold hair began to leave his head inch by inch.
The skin was peeled off, revealing the dark red muscle tissue underneath.
Then, as more cracks appear, it gradually turns pale red.
That was the result of the combined effects of amber gold and Titan venom; the blood in these corpses had been diluted to an appalling degree by all sorts of miscellaneous substances.
The Scarecrow was a true master of potion making; he managed to balance two different things so perfectly within the same body in such a short time.
The powerful muscles provided by Titan Venom and the self-healing ability provided by Amber Gold work together perfectly, allowing Claw Assassins to heal themselves quickly in a short time and let their bodies actively tear their muscles to create stronger tissue.
But this extraordinary self-healing ability is nothing but torture at this moment.
One by one, the muscles that stubbornly tried to piece themselves back together fought against the black nanobots. The intense pain stimulated the brain that had been frozen in the coffin for hundreds of years, causing it to let out hysterical, inhuman screams.
"Aaaaaaaahhhhhhh!"
The sound made the hairs on the back of the other claws stand on end.
Next comes the bones.
It lay bare and exposed to the air, then dented like a cookie.
Click!
A small crack appeared on the white cookie, and then it shattered instantly, as if a child had forcefully pulled it.
The white milk filling inside the sandwich cookie is revealed, mixed with some red strawberry filling. It is sweet and delicious, and the combination of them gives off an impressive aroma.
"vomit!"
Poison Ivy made a vomiting face.
Chen Tao realized that his cruel actions were not like himself. He frowned and then quickly waved his hands.
As the aching sound of teeth aching rang out again, this time, there was no slow, agonizing torment.
The biscuit was immediately broken in half.
Thud, the corpse fell to the ground. It seemed to have struck the scarecrow's heart as well.
He whirled around and grabbed Lincoln March by the collar: "Why? Why were your claws so easily defeated even though they were injected with Titan venom? I did exactly what you asked!"
He shouted, "Think of something! The court must still have a way!"
Lincoln March gave the other party, who had made a complete fool of himself, a look of disgust.
That's how the scarecrow is. Despite his worship of fear, he is also cowardly and weak. He is nothing more than a slave to fear.
This explains why he will never be a frontline dangerous figure.
"I don't know either," Lincoln March said. "You've already negotiated terms with the court behind my back, remember?"
He ignored the other party and spoke to the image projected onto the communication screen already activated on his arm armor: "So, what preparations have you made?"
In the video, courtroom members turn to the side and say disdainfully to the scarecrow, "Useless thing."
Then he said:
"Of course we have them."
The man in the white owl mask slowly said, "The Owl Court is all-knowing...all-powerful. Our backup plan."
He'll be here soon.
Immediately afterwards, the scarecrow heard the sound of someone slowly clapping.
"That was truly amazing."
"Scarecrow, I know you. I never expected the court to give you my venom sample to develop, and you actually succeeded in developing a venom and amber fusion project in such a short time... Amazing."
I'm recommending this book to a friend!
