Opened a martial arts school, and his eldest disciple Batman

Chapter 68 Rainy Night Darkness
Banner rolled over and crawled to pull up his pants, clenching the stretched waistband with both hands, his naked upper body shivering in the cold Gotham night.

But compared to the cold, he felt more shock and disbelief.

Hulk actually... just went back so easily.

Banner was able to transform into the Hulk for a short time, less than a year.

But almost every time Hulk is provoked, he makes a scene and then escapes from the uncomfortable environment. Then he falls into unspeakable sadness in a cave ruin and falls into a deep sleep. Only then can Banner regain control of his body in this silence.

This was the first time that Hulk took the initiative to give his body up again.

There is no need to explain the reason, it is all because of the man standing in front of him.

"What did you do? Did you use some magic again? It's amazing. Not only can you prevent Hulk from appearing normally, you can even beat him back when he has already appeared!"

Banner's original shock was gradually replaced by joy and excitement. He almost jumped up and down, as if he wanted to laugh out loud.

Du Mu looked at Banner's excitement, thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "No, Banner, I didn't use any magic on him this time. Hulk chose to go back by himself."

Banner was stunned and asked in confusion: "How is this possible...but...why?"

Du Mu shook his head: "I don't know too much, but Hulk just told me that he can feel all the emotions in your body that I suppressed, and asked me not to use it anymore."

Banner scratched his hair in annoyance and said angrily, "How can that be? Who gives him the final say? Who gives him the right to make demands? He is the one who took over my body! I just hope he will never! Never get out of here again!"

Du Mu looked at Banner's excited expression and waited for a moment, but the other party still showed no signs of transformation.

It seems that Hulk really chose to hand over his body to Banner this time.

Du Mu felt a little complicated for a moment. He walked forward and patted Banner on the shoulder: "Don't be too hard on Hulk... After all, he saved your life this time."

"But if it weren't for him..." Banner was about to make his habitual accusation, but suddenly remembered that this injury did not seem to be caused by Hulk.

Even this time, he didn't have any world-weary thoughts at all. He came to a brand new world, came into contact with a mysterious force that could suppress the Hulk's appearance, discovered unknown mysterious new things to explore, and even taught and educated people, gaining respect from the children's eyes...

This time Banner really didn't want to die.

So Hulk really showed up in time and saved himself.

Du Mu looked at Banner and thought, based on your performance, you still want to analyze my mental state?

I think you are the one with the most mental problems.

Du Mu thought for a moment. There are many settings for Hulk, and he is not quite sure what the situation is in the comics. But the movie version of Hulk is able to merge with Banner in the end, which shows that there is actually no real conflict between them.

Perhaps Banner, who does not accept Hulk, is more likely to not accept himself.

So Du Mu patted Banner's shoulder again and passed a trace of true energy into him, warming Banner's body.

Then he said, "Don't be too hard on yourself."

The coldness in the body gradually faded away.

For some reason, Banner's heart skipped a beat when he heard these words.

At this moment, he actually had the illusion that he was connected with the Hulk in his body.

But how is this possible?
Because the first thing that popped into Banner's mind just now was himself being beaten with a belt by his father when he was young and didn't get an A+ for the first time; himself being put on the head by a classmate and not having the courage to resist; himself being robbed of his lunch money and having to rely on drinking water to fill his stomach.

He was the one who failed to stop his father from killing his mother.

I am so stupid, weak, powerless, and my life has no meaning...

He looked at Du Mu and had only one sentence in his mind.

If you were me, you would hate yourself too.

But he didn't say it out loud because he felt that this sentence was meaningless.

Banner just lowered his head and remained silent, as if he didn't want to comment on the current situation.

Du Mu looked at Banner's reaction and thought to himself that he was worthy of being a PhD in psychology. His previous analysis of yourself was so accurate.

A person with deep avoidant personality who pretends to be gentle on weekdays.

No wonder in the original movie, Black Widow Natasha rarely pursued someone, but made Banner leave in a hurry.

Banner's childhood did not give him any experience in dealing with the concern of others. The only decision that made him feel safe was to avoid and escape. Du Mu used his magic power to sense Banner's body, and then gradually condensed the claw blood containing liquid metal into a thread from Banner's body and slowly pulled it out.

"I already trust Hulk. You guys should go back to the martial arts gym and rest. Don't get involved in what happens next."

As he spoke, a translucent blood-red thread slowly pierced through the skin of Banner's wrist and flew out.

Banner watched all this in silence, and then disappeared from the spot.

There was a sound of a light object falling to the ground behind him. Du Mu turned around and saw that Batman had already retracted the bat wings behind him into a cloak.

He looked at the place where Banner disappeared, frowned and said: "Master, who is Dr. Banner..."

Du Mu shook his head: "He was hit by gamma rays during an experiment. Since then, whenever he gets angry or encounters danger, Hulk will appear... and smash everything around him."

Batman took a deep look at the hole in the ground not far away, and after a long while he said, "It sounds like Hulk is protecting him."

"Yes, but he has no experience of being protected in the past."

Batman nodded. As expected, the psychological problems of Banner as the main personality were the root cause of the creation of a second personality like Hulk.

But no matter what, people from another world are not under their jurisdiction.

The top priority now is to encircle the Court of Owls and find and rescue the kidnapped Dick Grayson!

----

"What on earth is going on with that monster? Didn't the intelligence the Assassin's League gave us say that there was only an ordinary martial arts master and a child with super powers in that world?"

Long table, red wine, owl painting, owl statue, owl mask.

The whole room is illuminated by lit candles. The gentle yellow warm light gives people a relaxing and comfortable feeling, and the owl statue emits a golden light.

It seems to imply how ancient and noble this gorgeous room without any electronic devices is in today's modern society.

The old man sitting in the main seat at the top, wearing a simplified white owl mask, continued to question in a deep voice: "And... I heard that the bird's nest in Wayne Building was discovered by Bruce Wayne? He even captured one of our claws."

Another man wearing an owl mask lowered his head and said carefully, "Please rest assured, Claw has been brainwashed and will never reveal any information about us."

An elderly woman said dissatisfiedly, "How could it be such a coincidence? We just found a new world that has not yet been developed, and the bird's nest that was originally well hidden was discovered. Lei Xiaogu must have sold our information to Bruce Wayne. He wants to see us both lose!"

"That's enough. The most urgent thing now is to deal with Wayne who has already noticed our presence. Then investigate why the portal suddenly failed and whether it can be repaired."

"Originally, the bat in the prophecy could not be killed, and it needed to be infused with five kinds of metals to open the door. But now that we have a ticket to an unexplored world, we don't necessarily have to act according to the prophecy."

"It just so happens that according to the original plan, Lincoln March... oh, it should be Thomas Wayne Jr., will take over Wayne Group as Bruce Wayne's younger brother. After that, Gotham will be completely under our control and can be used as a base to better occupy the New World."

Everyone discussed it and arranged the resources and interests of Gotham, Wayne Group, Batman, and the other world clearly.

Each conspiracy was laid out in a straightforward manner, as if it were natural to discuss how to distribute a birthday cake.

A thunder exploded.

It started raining outside the window.

The strong wind suddenly blew open the windows of the luxurious room and extinguished all the candles.

All the people in the Court of Owls suddenly fell silent.

Because they were all in the dark, they could vaguely see the outline of something.

It had horns and wings...like the silhouette of a gargoyle statue.

"Boom--!"

Another loud thunder exploded.

Because the windows were blown open by the storm, the thunder seemed even more deafening this time.

In that flash of light, everyone in the Court of Owls could see clearly.

Batman was looking down at them.
