Chapter 2470: Battle for the Cloak (26)

Chapter 2470: Battle for the Cloak (Twenty-Six)

King Robin didn't listen at all at first, but later he found that Bruce's words contained some information about other universes, such as which universe was at war, what was going on with Batman in which universe, and each piece of information was very detailed, which was much easier than collecting it by himself.

So he began to filter out the nonsense in Bruce's complaints and only wrote down the situations in certain universes that he had mentioned.

But he had to remember this information, and he couldn't just let these complaints go in one ear and out the other. He had to think about them, but as time went by, King Robin couldn't help but hear some of them.

In fact, King Robin's working life is also full of bitterness and tears.

In the original comics, King Robin was recruited by Laugh-In after he slaughtered the superheroes of his own universe. However, when he was recruited, he didn't know that he was going to be transformed, so only afterwards did he realize that he had been tricked.

At that time, Crazy Laughing made a big pool and threw all the Robins he captured from all over the universe into the pool to transform them into Crazy Robins. What he had said before about left-hand and right-hand men, generals under his command, etc. were all nonsense. The captured King Robin was no different from other Robins. They were all transformed on an assembly line.

The transformed Robin has no consciousness of his own and will be completely controlled by the crazy laughter, turning into a monster like a mad dog.

But although King Robin is called King Robin, he just likes the sound of the robin and is not really Batman's Robin. He is Bruce Wayne. How could he allow others to control him?

So he made a small pill. As long as he took it, he would be able to retain his independent consciousness after being transformed. However, this was soon discovered by Kuang Xiao, so he was thrown into the pool before he could completely swallow the pill.

King Robin spit the pill into the pool in anger, which made all the Robins transformed after the laughter retain a certain self-awareness.

The most infuriating thing happened. Kuangxiao clearly saw what King Robin did, but he did not stop him. He just said in a calm tone that it was meaningless for you to do this, and Robin would only listen to me.

Just tell me if this is infuriating or not, every time King Robin thinks about this, his blood pressure rises.

He had to admit that he felt bored after slaughtering all the superheroes in the universe. When Crazy Laughter came to recruit him, he was planning to use Crazy Laughter to travel to other universes.

But isn't this how job hunting works in this world? You want to use my labor, I want to use your resources, can I still be your slave without asking for anything?

And at that time he was laughing wildly and saying, now all these universes are going to be destroyed, everything you do is meaningless, you might as well follow me.

To anyone who hears this, it means that your current company has no future, and if you work with me, I can give you better conditions, more generous treatment, and broader development opportunities.

The result is that after tricking people over, they are transformed into consciousnessless puppets. Aren't you simply tricking pigs over and killing them?

It is impossible to say that King Robin has no resentment about this. Even if his universe is really going to be destroyed, at least before the destruction, I am a domineering king in my own land. I can do whatever I want and I will be a happy ghost even if I die.

As a result, when I came to you, it’s not enough that you didn’t give me the agreed position, but you also wanted to brainwash and control me directly. This is not an unscrupulous company, it’s simply a pyramid scheme gang.

But after all, we are here now. King Robin also admitted that he was one move short of making crazy laughs, but I was only one move short of making a mistake. I would have kept silent and not exposed you. I would have just quietly run away and that would have been the end of it. But the Robins from so many universes are not enough for you to cause trouble, so you have to keep me here.

You didn't let me run, and I was so angry that I was ready to take everyone with me to run away. But you said indifferently, "It's useless to encourage them, they only listen to me." Who wouldn't be crazy?

And the most outrageous thing is that even though he knew King Robin wanted to escape, he didn't care and still sent him out to collect intelligence. His attitude was similar to "Little guy, can you still run away from my Five Finger Mountain?"

No Bruce Wayne could stand this kind of humiliation, so King Robin naturally wanted to make a big move, so he came to the Arkham Knight universe and wanted to study what was going on with the fusion of the Joker and Batman, with the goal of getting back at the Maniac for laughing one day.

As a result, things are not going well now. Not only will he fail to achieve his goal, but he will also be laughed at and ridiculed when he returns. King Robin is getting angrier and angrier the more he thinks about it.

He really couldn't help but sighed deeply. Bruce finally stopped his complaints and looked at King Robin with an inquiring expression.

King Robin is not a person who is good at complaining, or rather, since he was born, there has been nothing worth complaining about except this incident, but the more this is the case, the more intense these feelings of dissatisfaction will become when they erupt.

Although King Robin has never done such a thing, Bruce had set a good example for him before. The so-called complaints are nothing more than standing from his own perspective and recounting all the weird things in his eyes, mixed with some stereotypes that are not difficult to hear. But who cares? Why can't anyone judge his experience?

King Robin cleared his throat after hearing this. He did not say the name of the Laughing Bat directly, or in fact he was a little embarrassed to say it because he thought the name was really lame.

So, like Bruce, he complained about the whole thing using a boss-employee relationship that is easier for ordinary people to understand. Although he wanted to complain, he did not lose his mind and did not reveal any important plans. He just gave a brief account of his experience.

"…So, that's what happened. Do you think that's what he really thinks? Does he really think his brainwashing method will always work? Or does he think he can conquer the universe with those crazy people he brainwashed?"

This is King Robin's true thought. He actually has never figured out why Laughing Maniac brainwashed so many Robins. Since the pool is so powerful that people can be thrown into it to soak and become completely unconscious, why not throw some powerful people in?

So he raised his question, but Bruce did not give a well-reasoned analysis. He just said, "Aren't all bosses like this? You talk to him about efficiency, he talks to you about feelings, you talk to him about culture, he asks you about profits, you ask him about specific plans, he talks to you about lofty ambitions, you ask him about overall goals, he tells you that details determine success or failure."

King Robin almost applauded Bruce, because that was what laughing wildly looked like in his eyes.

Crazy Laugh has come up with a super big plan, so King Robin will definitely ask him what the purpose of this plan is. Then Crazy Laugh will tell him that the existence of all universes now is meaningless.

King Robin naturally speculated that the purpose of this plan might be to destroy the universe, so he naturally asked how you planned to destroy the universe. As a result, he laughed wildly and began to say that there is a unique Batman in each universe.

King Robin speculated that Maniac Laughter might want to use Batman to destroy the universe. Since he wanted to deal with Batman, he must be prepared. King Robin even prepared a whole belt of props to deal with the superheroes in their universe. He would definitely be concerned about what preparations Maniac Laughter had.

As a result, he saw that all the preparations made by Crazy Laughing so far were to catch Robins all over the world and throw them into the pool. He didn't expect Batman to break down after seeing these transformed Robins, did he?

What Kuangxiao is doing now is totally inconsistent with the grand goal he proposed. When King Robin asked, Kuangxiao just said "do your own job well". If King Robin had to describe it, Kuangxiao is now the biggest headless fly in the universe.

So Robin Wang nodded vigorously and said, "I think your summary is very correct. He is simply unreasonable..."

Schiller and Bruce Jr. were sitting on the top floor of Wayne Tower, observing their conversation through the screen of the brain wave invasion machine.

Little Bruce turned his head and found Schiller lost in thought. In fact, he was also very interested in the boss that King Robin mentioned, but Schiller seemed to be very secretive about it. Should he ask?

In fact, Schiller was also thinking that, judging from the timeline, the members of the Dark Knights should have been almost corrupted by now, and then Crazy Laugh's plan should be carried out step by step, but from the current performance, he seemed to be still strolling.

But Schiller had a rough guess that it was essentially because of him, or to be more precise, Dr. Anatoly, him, and Bruce.

As mentioned before, Kuangxiao could not predict the new files about Schiller coming in from outside, and he did not have more information about them for the time being, so naturally he had no way of understanding Bruce, who was deeply influenced by Schiller.

Laughing Crazy couldn't have predicted that Schiller was a psychology professor, and that he and Bruce had tortured each other for so many years and almost reshaped his personality. Naturally, he couldn't have predicted the outrageous behavior that Bruce would do.

One of its representatives is that the laughing maniac is myself. He is a Batman with thick eyebrows and big eyes. Instead of being a superhero, he becomes a lackey of Barbatos.

So the question is, Bruce became Barbatos's lackey, so what was the purpose of the initial laughter?

As we all know, when Mad Laughter first appeared, he rushed into the main universe as the apostle of Barbatos through the channel opened by Batman and Metal, and began his massacre.

Without Barbatos's advance arrangement, the portal to the main universe would not have been opened, and Crazy Laughter would not have had the opportunity to appear.

But now Bruce is Barbatos's sweetheart, and Barbatos' plan for the Bright Universe has changed from sneaky and furtive to orderly and methodical.

The Barbatos company has been transformed into a very formal one by Bruce. Barbatos is equivalent to the big boss, Bruce is equivalent to the president, the dark Batman or priests in each universe are equivalent to the regional managers, the members of the Court of Owls are equivalent to the department heads, and the strengthened claws are equivalent to the company employees.

Over such a long period of time, Bruce has sorted out the entire company system very clearly, and Barbatos has even gradually adapted to this modern corporate operating system. All matters are reported up layer by layer and summarized step by step. Everyone makes the necessary decisions at the right level, and Barbatos controls the final direction.

It must be said that the corporate system created by humans cannot be said to be first-rate in terms of efficiency, but in terms of mutual dragging down each other - in a more civilized sense, it is called checks and balances - the skill points are full. But this has one advantage, which is that it looks very formal. The machine of this kind of company does not run fast, but the parts and gears fit together perfectly and look extremely beautiful.

Barbatos was very satisfied with this, because it made him feel that he had a very large team with a wide network and deep penetration, which was much better than the previous makeshift team.

The Barbatos Group's system has been structured very completely, and the entire company seems to be running smoothly, which means there are no vacancies for newcomers.

This newcomer specifically refers to Madness. Yes, Bruce went crazy too early, resulting in no place for Madness under Barbatos.
