[Zhongyingmei] Don't panic, I can still live!

Batman devoted himself to the busy work of maintaining order in Gotham, but he found in frustration that when the crowd he originally guarded was against him, the fear and high-pressure policy he had always been effective was useless to the civilians at all.

They believe that Batman will not really hurt them, so they become unscrupulous.If he fights against these people who are motivated by bloody revenge, he will be considered a supporter of the privileged class. People will not look at what he has done, but will only stare at what he is doing now, and then misinterpret him and hate him .

Tim, Damian, Dick, Jason, they have not closed their eyes for two whole days, and bloody revenge events are happening at any time, and they gradually begin to deviate from their original meaning.Anyone can take up arms and attack those they hate.The efforts of the vigilantes are only a drop in the bucket. They can stop the atrocities, but they can never stop the hearts of the people who hate each other.

When people stormed the municipal facilities, they never forgot Arkham. The first fire of revenge was ignited in Arkham. The people who were afraid of Arkham's repeated crimes flocked there at this moment. They seemed to be belated. Remember, those felons imprisoned in Arkham, when they never committed heinous crimes, each of them was the most ordinary person at the bottom of Gotham. They also struggled to survive. It was Gotham who turned them into terrible prisoner.They have forgotten the evil these people have done, and now they just want to pull Gotham into hell with them.

Arkham's guards are far from being able to prevent a large number of excited people from attacking. What's more, the people guarding Arkham are also ordinary Gotham people. They also watched the live broadcast and were easily infected by emotions. They didn't even seriously resist. .

Batman had to be an enemy of the entire Gotham this time. He re-captured the felons back to Arkham time and time again, and then concentrated them in a special underground prison specially built to deal with extreme situations.

When he checked the prisoners again, he found that Joe Cole was missing.

He entrusted everything here to James Gordon, and the black cloak set off a black wave when he turned around.

When Constantine told him that the target of Lazarus Essence was the Dionysus factor, he monitored Joe Cole more closely. Position monitoring was implanted on his clothes and under his skin, his iris and blood It has been entered into all the surveillance system databases in Gotham, and as soon as he leaves Arkham, both Batcave and him will receive an alert as soon as possible.

The alarm didn't go off at the moment, which meant that he was still in Arkham.

When Batman finds Joe Cole in Arkham's escape tunnel, another unexpected but logical figure is there.

Joe Cole was hijacked by this person to go out.He didn't dare to resist, he crouched and shrunk into a ball, and was forcibly dragged forward, but his shadow completely stretched out in excitement, jumping and jumping like a flickering flame.Batman threw his Batarang at the man in the black robe.

That person wanted to drag Joe Cole away together, but this once mighty clown just wanted to crouch in a corner and shiver.The man in black had no choice but to let go of his opponent and dodge by himself.

Batman jumped up and kicked when he got close to the opponent.

The opponent dodged sideways, and Batman once again reached out to clamp the black-robed man's shoulder, one leg stepped forward and locked the opponent's leg joint sideways so that he could not retreat, he turned his head to avoid the opponent's attacking fist covered with knuckles, With the other hand, he pulled down the black hood that covered his face.

"Lars!" Batman yelled.

The face of the former demon leader appeared in front of his eyes like a zombie.

He restrained Lars' joints and pressed him firmly against the wall. Joe Cole crouched in a corner with his head in his arms, whimpering softly.

"What are you kidnapping the clown for? You have the essence of Lazarus on you!" Almost instantly, Batman figured out the key.

Joe Cole is basically not dangerous now, but the biggest threat is that he falls into the hands of Lars.

"Get out of here!" Batman yelled at Joe Cole.

"Where can I go?" Joe Cole asked blankly.

Lars's skin was abnormally green. He originally wanted to hijack Joe Cole out of Arkham, and then take out the Dionysus factor after he got Ulysses in his hands, but at this moment he had already taken care of it. Not so much, and the essence of Lazarus on his body began to move around the corner. Lars roared angrily, bursting out with inhuman, astonishing power.

He broke free of Batman's shackles and flung him hard.Then he threw a smoke bomb, and under the cover of the smoke bomb, he precisely pulled Joe Cole over.

Batman immediately put on the oxygen mask, and immediately turned on the thermal imaging function on the optical goggles.He threw the grappling hook around Lars' leg, and then tried hard to drag him in front of him.

However, at this moment, another heat source image suddenly appeared at the edge of the viewing angle.

Batman decisively threw a few bat darts again, but the bat dart fell to the ground before it touched the opponent.

This familiar feeling made Batman's scalp tingle immediately.He didn't know how far Nemo Ulysses could go without a doubt, but he felt a wave of anger towards him from the bottom of his heart.

He grabbed the rope that bound Lars' leg with one hand, and moved quickly to Nemo's side. There was a blood bond between him and Nemo, and Nemo could not resist the real contact between them.Therefore, the moment he got close to Nemo, he took out the Ta|gun and pressed it against the opponent's skin.

"Ah—" The other party let out a painful scream, and Batman realized that it was not Nemo.

"Konstantin?!" He called out the other party's identity.

"Fuck, old bat, you are really merciless." Constantine said weakly as he fell to the ground.

Batman gave him a cold look, and continued to drag Lars towards him.

Constantine jumped up unexpectedly, pulled out a special dagger, and attacked the rope in Batman's hand without hesitation.

Batman kicked Constantine out, but the rope in his hand was also cut.

The hell detective sits on the ground and coughs up a mouthful of blood

"Why are you in my way!" Batman yelled angrily.

He flew towards Lars, but Lars had already forcibly pulled Joe Cole up. The blue-gray palm of the demon head firmly grasped Joe Cole's head, and green flames ignited around his body.

Lars began to chant the spell, and his voice came out of his mouth, as if with an accent.

Batman drew the Quirinus Blade from the weapon belt on his calf, and rushed towards Lars. Constantine stretched his hands and read a spell, and released several familiars to block Batman's way.

"Constantine!" Batman once again threw a special bat dart at Constantine. This time the bat dart was equipped with magic. It was the special bat dart he had asked Zatanna to deal with. Enemies on the magic side.

Constantine's protective spell was broken by the bat dart, and it stabbed hard at the shoulder blade.

But the spell on Lars' side has been read.

Joe Cole screamed. Lars dug out a piece of spine from his cervical spine, and then Lars stuffed the spine into his mouth.

Joe Cole fell limply to the ground covered in blood, a creepy chewing sound came from Lars' mouth, and then the ground began to tremble.

Batman grabbed Joe Cole, and Constantine followed him, running wildly up.

"Are you crazy? Why do you want to help evildoers!" Batman scolded Constantine as he ran.

Constantine rushed forward with his head buried, and it took a long time before he replied: "This is a necessary sacrifice."

Batman was so angry that they ran to the ground, he first stopped the bleeding of Joe Cole, then grabbed a panicked paramedic and stuffed him.

He grabbed Constantine by the collar and punched him hard.

"What are you and Ulysses planning? Neither of you have ever truly loved Gotham, so why do you hate her so much? Is your so-called justice so cruel? Do you want to sacrifice hundreds of thousands of innocent lives?!" Batman questioned.

As Lars completely obtained the Dionysus factor, his original blue-gray skin recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and a huge black mist gradually gathered behind him, and the ominous black fire followed Ulysses. The fringe of the city is gradually rising.

Constantine's face was covered with blood. He stared blankly at the larger and larger shadow of the demon behind Lars, who was about to condense into shape. He didn't know what he was thinking.

When the ominous black mist appeared in the chaotic Gotham sky, no one cared about it until someone noticed that black fire started to emerge from the ground for no reason, and the black mist became thicker and thicker, and they gradually stopped fighting and attacking each other , looking over Gotham.

The black mist gradually grew larger, and finally turned into a humanoid shape.What happened next began to challenge people's worldview. It seemed that a big mouth of black mist opened in the air, and green mist poured down from his mouth.

The green mist quickly sank. Most of the corpses who died tragically in bloody conflicts these days, those who voluntarily sacrificed in revenge, and those who were killed in revenge, most of them have not had time to be buried in the ground, and they are just parked in the morgue , at this moment they all opened their pupilless eyes and sat up.

They took to the streets step by step, and began to attack and bite every mortal.

The hostility and hatred between human beings become insignificant in the face of the fear of this supernatural force.This time, people are drawn into real, demon-facing fears.

People screamed and started to run, a doomsday shudder washed over everyone's soul.

Witnessing all this with bulging veins, Batman once again punched Constantine: "Is this what you expected?! You are also human, how can you bear to watch human beings being eaten by demons!"

Constantine let out a breath slowly, he said: "The essence of Lazarus is the real demon, and the demon can only be completely wiped out when the soul is intact."

"So you're going to feed Gotham's soul with blood?" Batman demanded, hissing.

Constantine finally couldn't help it. He said: "We never thought of using Gotham's blood to nourish the devil. Why do you think Ulysses used a space barrier to cover Gotham? I set up a trigger-type illusion magic on Joe Cole. As long as Lars hurts Joe Cole, the whole Gotham will enter the illusion with him as the coordinate. His own magic power cannot support such a long time and For a large magic one, he used a forbidden technique that trades lifespan for magic power!"

"Except for Lars and his Lazarus demon here, only those who have had contact with Ulysses in reality are real! Ulysses regards himself as the center of the magic circle, and the Dionysus on Joe Cole The factor is the energy key, pulling the entire Gotham into the mirror space!"

Batman was stunned.

"What... what is he going to do?" He asked with difficulty.

"Cultivate the Lazarus demon in the illusion, and then kill him." Constantine wiped the blood from his face and said calmly.

"Although this is an illusion, people's fears are real. Lazarus feeds on human fear, hatred, and evil thoughts. All those trapped in this illusion will eventually understand that it is the hysterical malice in their hearts that summons them. Out came the real devil."

Batman's comms vibrated wildly, his Robin, and Gordon contacted him one after another.

Gordon couldn't get in touch with his colleagues, and he found that his communication device was not working. He tried one by one, and was only picked up when he tried to reach Batman.

Batman glanced at Constantine, and quickly explained the current situation to Gordon.Gordon's decades-long scientific worldview was also impacted, and he said after a long pause, "Then what else can we do now?"

Constantine took out a cigarette and lit it. Looking at Lars who was surrounded by an invisible barrier not far away, he said, "The moment when the soul of the essence of Lazarus finally takes shape is when Lars is the weakest."

He took out a piece of parchment from the windbreaker, on which was a map of Gotham, on which a repeated magic circle was superimposed, and the positions where several lines meet were specially marked.

"If you really want to help, go to these places and bless this magic circle with the blood of heroes. It can temporarily suppress the soul of Lazarus so that it won't suddenly go berserk when Lars is attacked..."

"How to do it?" Batman took the parchment map, uploaded it with the recording function of the goggles, and then synced it to the Batcave, and asked Alfred to send it to Tim and the others. "

"Iln'yaqu'un héro?smeaumonde:c'estdevoirlemondetelqu'ilestetdel'aimer.*"

Constantine whispered a paragraph of French before continuing: "Only a truly tenacious belief, a soul that never loses its way even through the most hopeless darkness, and is not manipulated and swayed by hatred, can be considered a hero." Soul, the blood of heroes is in their bodies. If you think you are qualified, then let your little birds and the police chief go to these nodes and use your own blood to bless this magic circle."

Batman quickly arranged where everyone was going on his communication channel. He looked at the last marked location that was not arranged, and finally called Jason.

After explaining everything, Batman said, "I don't know if you still hate me, Jason."

Jason was silent for a while before he said: "Old man, I hated you, but the reason I hated you was also because I loved you so much. I don't know if my soul has been played by hatred, but I will do what you say. I love Nemo, I will not let him fight alone, and for him, I am willing to put down all hatred."

People's screams and cries gradually weakened. No one would be helpless forever. Human beings would always find the most suitable way of survival in adversity, even in an illusion.

Soon someone stood up and organized the evacuation and refuge of the crowd in an orderly manner. In the face of the sudden natural disaster, the people who were still hating each other just now suddenly became united. The men raised their existing weapons and rushed towards the resurrected Monsters, other people cover the old, weak, sick and disabled and evacuate first.

The energy that Demon Shadow can absorb is getting less and less, but this only slows down the speed at which his soul is formed.

When it took on a complete demon form over Gotham, the energy barrier around Lars also weakened. Just as he slowly opened his eyes, Constantine took out a gold finger cot from his pocket and put it on. He rushed towards Lars with his hand.Batman also clenched the Quirinus Blade in his hand and stabbed towards Lars.

Lars was once a master assassin, and even at the weakest moment when he merged with Lazarus' soul, the power blessed by the real demon soul cannot be underestimated.With a scream, he greeted Constantine and Batman.

Dick, Jason, Tim, Damian, Barbara, Gordon, and even Alfred left the Batcave and came to the places Batman had arranged in advance.

They cut their palms hard, and the blood seeped into the soil under their feet along the palms.They chanted together the phonetic symbols on the parchment, from the spell of the old gods.

[Demonshere, Boundbyme! ] (The devil here is bound by me!)

The blood melted into the ground of Gotham under their feet, and green light spots slowly rose from their feet. They gradually formed a restraining spell in the air, and flew towards the black demon shadow above Gotham.

Seven binding runes rose into the sky from seven places in the city, and they tightly bound the black shadow in the sky.The Shadow of the Devil raised his head and roared angrily. This roar shook the entire Gotham, and even almost shattered this illusion.

Constantine and Batman are still struggling with Lars. Lars has been fatally hit several times, but the Dionysian factor blessed by the essence of Lazarus can always make him recover extremely quickly.

"How to kill him!" Panting, Batman avoided Lars' knife and asked Constantine loudly.

Constantine pursed his lips tightly and thought for a few seconds before saying, "Only Ulysses can kill him. But..."

Batman was silent for a moment. He knew what Constantine's unfinished words meant, which meant that he might want to pay a huge price for killing Lars.So he said, "Tell me how? I can too."

"What?" Constantine asked in surprise.

"I have a deep blood-sworn connection with Nemo, and I should be able to kill him," Batman said.

Constantine looked at the Quirinus blade in his hand, and thought that Batman might really be able to do it.

only--

Even if Batman can kill Lars' body, his soul that has been fused with Lazarus is not something Batman can deal with. Although he has a blood oath with Nemo, Constantine does not want to take this risk.

He was about to reject Batman's proposal when a gust of wind suddenly rose not far away.Nemo's figure slowly appeared in the eye of the wind.

His black over-the-knee boots and slim black trousers are almost integrated, the cuffs and neckline of the white French shirt are intricately and repeatedly pleated, and the shirt is covered with a dark green suit vest.These were all the clothes he wore on the day he was brought to the Batcave. The only thing that changed was the black suit cloak on the outermost layer. It was originally made of pure black fabric. At this moment, there were complicated patterns embroidered with bright green thread on the front and cuffs. Magic runes and spells.

He held the sword of the archmage firmly in both hands, raised the hilt horizontally, and pointed the tip of the sword directly at Lars.

Constantine caught the shape of Nemo and yelled at Batman, "Hold him!"

Batman also saw Nemo. His long white hair and black cloak were blown up by the wind, and his emerald green eyes looked straight at Lars, with a kind of fierce and cold beauty.He has a lot to ask, but he knows that now is not a good time to ask.

He obeyed Constantine's order, and the two of them were on one side, using all their strength to restrain him.

Lars, who had been silent all this time, suddenly burst out laughing.

"Stupid! Stupid mortal! Batman, do you think he can kill me? He will only make me what I want, stronger! Ulysses, the magic circle you gave me is inside me Run, I can use the magic circle that kills undead creatures to restrict and trap the essence of Lazarus, let him use it for me, and then use the magic circle of resurrection to make my soul immortal. The blood of the goddess, the soul of the hero, these two things are missing now Give it to me, let me be the only god here!"

Batman's eyes moved, he looked at Constantine, but the strength in his hand did not relax at all.Constantine shook his head at him.

Unmoved by his words, Nemo ran his palm across the blade, letting his own blood stain the Archmage's sword.

[I ask the power of the witch Circe's bloodline to give me strength, extradite the power of the devil, and bind evil to the hero's soul.Verdict - The Blade of Ulysses! 】

He rushed towards Lars, and his mage sword pierced Lars' heart with a "poof--".

Lars' crazy eyes paused, and he looked at Nemo with a smile that got what he wanted.

A wisp of black mist traveled along the blade of the Archmage Sword that pierced Lars' heart, climbed onto Nemo's hand, and finally wrapped around his whole body.

Batman looked terrified and wanted to touch him, but was pushed back several meters by the wind blades that suddenly surged around Nemo.

Lars' body collapsed suddenly after the black mist penetrated into Nemo's body, and he scattered into countless black dust and dissipated in the wind.

At this moment, golden magic lines suddenly appeared on Nemo's face.He staggered a step as if he had been punched suddenly, and stabbed the ground with the sword of the archmage to stabilize his figure.

The golden magic pattern is the forbidden magic spell that Constantine left on Nemo.

The shadow of the devil floating above the city also seemed to feel that the soul that was merging with Lars was being imprisoned, and the shadow skyrocketed, trying to break the bondage.

But those who provided the blood and energy for the seven binding runes would not flinch.

The pain of their souls being pulled made them clenched their teeth and cut the wound on their palms deeper, fearing that the energy provided by the blood would not be enough.

Finally came the last moment.

Constantine took out the carefully kept piece of soul in his arms.He let go of his hand, and the fragments were suspended in the air, emitting a white, soft light.

With Constantine and the soul fragment in front of him as the center, a magic circle emitting green light similar to the one Batman used to destroy Solomon Grundy in Nemo rose gradually.

As if inspired, the Archmage's sword flew towards the soul fragment.

Nemo lost his support and knelt on the ground with one knee, and a magic circle appeared under his feet, and black restraints appeared out of thin air, like the giant demon shadow above Gotham, bound around Nemo.Green incantations slowly emerged on the black ribbon.

Batman suddenly understood what Constantine was up to.

"No! No! You can't..."

He firmly held Constantine's hand that wanted to hold the sword of the archmage, preventing him from moving.

The veins on Nemo's forehead popped up. He glared at Constantine and shouted as if he was exhausted: "Quick!"

Constantine looked at Nemo. Nemo's soul was already damaged, and this was the opportunity for Lars to enter without any scruples or doubts. However, Nemo used his remaining soul power to force Lars and The devil's soul that Lazarus had just melted was tightly wrapped in his own soul, just to give Constantine a chance to hit him.

Constantine didn't forcefully break free from Batman, he just said lightly: "He can't hold on anymore, if you hinder us, his already damaged soul will still be swallowed by the essence of Lazarus, and then he will have a physical demon In this world, Lars' wish to destroy the world will soon be fulfilled. You can't save anyone."

When Batman became a vigilante, he set the bottom line of not killing. No matter how crazy criminals he faced, no matter how difficult the decision not to kill was, he never crossed the line.

But now, because of "not killing", can he just watch Constantine kill Nemo?Is his persistence at this moment because of principles, or because of cowardice?

People never need to choose between pain and comfort, because this opposite option does not need to be chosen at all.The choice is always between pain and more pain.In the face of those insane criminals, not killing is more difficult than killing, and at this moment, for Batman, killing Nemo is the more difficult choice.

He understood why Nemo would rather ask Constantine than tell him.Nemo knew he didn't want to kill, and he never wanted to make things difficult for him.

Suddenly, his heart throbbed and he wanted to vomit.

Batman closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, he had already made a decision.When he chose not to kill, it was because he wanted to serve justice, not revenge. At this moment, his choice was not to stick to the bottom line.

He reached out and grasped the hilt of the Archmage Sword before Constantine.

Constantine looked at him with raised eyebrows in surprise, and asked, "Have you decided? Indeed, if it were the Blood Oath Maker, it would be easier to kill the demon soul in Ulysses' body, but you are not... ..."

"Tell me what to do," Batman said hoarsely.

Constantine put the soul fragment back into his pocket.

"Thank you for giving me an excuse to avoid killing my colleagues."

As he spoke, he quickly taught Batman the spell Nemo had taught him.Batman is a quick learner and almost memorizes it once.Also, the pronunciation of this spell Batman heard once, when killing Solomon Grundy.

【This is the Sword of the Archmage, I use the name of the Holy Mage of the Ulysses family—】

He chanted slowly in a rough voice, and the blade of the Archmage Sword shone brighter in his hand than when Constantine held it.

His sword pointed at Nemo just like what Nemo had done to Lars just now.

[Eliminate all uncleanness! 】

The Archmage's sword pierced Nemo's left chest.

"Uh..." Nemo let out a little pain in a low voice.

The black shadow of the devil let out a stern roar over Gotham, the bondage made of green mantras suddenly dispersed, and the long howling sound of the shadow of the devil shattered the illusion.

The shadow of the demon gradually dispersed as the cry weakened.

Still staying on the streets of Gotham, the suddenly sober people looked up, and they found that the zombies they were fighting were slowly shattering along with the shadow of the demon above their heads.They saw the final moments of the demon's dissipation.They seemed to be belatedly aware of what had happened, and knelt down to pray and repent.

Director Gordon, Barbara, and Batman's assistants also fell to their knees at the moment the demon dissipated.

The Archmage's sword penetrated Nemo's body, leaving only the hilt.Batman slowly let go of the hilt of his sword, and then gently hugged Nemo.

Nemo was half-kneeling, his head resting wearily on Batman's rough shoulder armor, where he could still taste the blood and the smoke.

"Now my sentence is over." Nemo whispered.

"It's not over, it can't be over. Nemo, how could you treat me like this." Batman's voice modified by the voice changer was a little choked up.

Nemo gasped slightly, as if he wanted to laugh, but he was in so much pain that he finally held back.

He raised his hand and hugged Batman gently.

"I hurt your favorite Gotham, but you didn't let me go, so we're even." Nemo's voice seemed a little happy.

Bruce didn't say anything, just hugged him lightly.

【_Sciftendnama:】(The past is like the wind, and the fetters are gone)

Nemo read the last spell.

An invisible wind blows through everyone who has ever known Nemo Ulysses.

Jason collapsed on the ground gasping for breath, but he suddenly stopped.

His tears flowed out uncontrollably.Constantine wiped out the demon and everything was over, but why was he so sad?

"Strange? Why am I crying?" Jason took off his hood and wiped his tears with his gloves.But his lacrimal glands seemed uncontrollable, and tears kept flowing out.

Gotham once again sank into the night, but the city shrouded in thick fog all year round unexpectedly saw the moon tonight.

"The moonlight is so beautiful tonight." Nemo whispered in his ear.

Batman tilted his head and planted a kiss on his white hair.

"Yes Yes."

The author says:

Although everyone knows it, and this stalk is used badly, but I will say it again...

When Natsume Soseki was still an English teacher, he asked his students how to translate Iloveyou.Some students translated it as "爱しています" (more straightforward "I love you"). Natsume Soseki said that the Japanese would not say "I love you".The Japanese would say "月が白丽ですね" (Moonlight is so beautiful).

Neither Bruce nor Nemo are the type to express love easily, so I think this stalk is really suitable for them.

“The moonlight is so beautiful tonight”

"Yes"

The translation is

"I love you"

"Me too"

*The French label is quoted from Romain Rolland's "Michelangelo", and the Chinese translation is: There is only one kind of heroism, and that is to still love life after recognizing the truth of life.

The setting of exchanging life for mana was used in Chapter 9 when saving the waiter who was shot.
