[Comprehensive British and American] When short rich handsome meets tall rich handsome

Wayne Tower, built in 1888, was supervised by Allen Wayne.

This building is an icon, and every guest who enters Gotham is under his protection.

He has twelve gargoyles, or guardians, each of whom looks out over the main roads in and out of the city.

But now the building is surrounded by thick poisonous fog, and the only thing that can be seen around is the corpses everywhere and Gotham, which has been isolated as no man's land.

Tony stood on top of the gargoyle, his silver-white armor reflected the moonlight, and stood out in the night sky.

Below his feet is a dark area that no one has entered for a long time—the place where the fear toxin is most concentrated.

No one knew what it was like inside. From the day the poisonous mist spread, no one escaped inside, and no one who entered from the outside came out alive.

He once asked the Laughing Bat if he knew what it looked like inside, but the Laughing Bat said indifferently, who knows.

Tony wouldn't go into the dark zone with that guy, he wouldn't trust that lunatic, even though the Laughing Bat said he would help him with Gotham and Thanos, but like he said, who knows?Who can trust the clown?

Like the clown, the Laughing Bat is crazy enough, whoever trusts him is either crazy or stupid.

Tony thought he was crazy enough, but stupid was certainly not stupid.

Refused the Laughing Bat to enter together, in order to prevent him from stabbing himself in the back, Tony secretly arranged a small monitoring device for him around him.

He guessed the lunatic knew about it, but he just smiled, looked at Tony meaningfully, and then went about his own big business - he got interested in the old school villains in Gotham who are still alive, ventriloquist Ah, Riddler these.

In his world, all his villains and heroes have been killed. When he said this, his tone was very regretful, as if he had lost some interesting toy.

These villains hid when Tony started to gather Gotham. They cleverly realized that Tony's methods were completely different from Batman's. He wouldn't play those hide-and-seek games with them, so Tony didn't catch them. .

Since the Laughing Bat is interested in them, let him go.

Although he thought that the Laughing Bat actually wanted to do something secretly, but now he wanted to open the dark area more, so he temporarily put this matter aside.

Dark Zones are more important now.

He has already reached the gargoyle. Wayne Tower is the tallest place in Gotham. Standing here, you can overlook the whole Gotham.

What Batman likes most is standing here, so that criminals can feel Batman's gaze when they look up.

It's just out of sight now.

In an instant, the silver-white mask covered Tony's face. Although there was no way to completely filter the fear toxin, at this altitude, the fear toxin was still effective when it was not so strong.

He smashed the top office in Wayn Tower, which he guessed was Bruce's or that Fox's office.

There is a computer in the middle of the desk. According to Batman's desire to control, this computer is at least connected to all of Gotham's monitoring equipment—and his own additional monitoring equipment.

Smart metal crawled into the wires along his fingers, trying to connect the disconnected wires inside.

After a few minutes, the computer lights up.

[The power provided by the smart metal is only enough to support the operation of Wayne Tower equipment for 5 minutes. ] Maria said.

That's enough, Tony now needs to confirm the basic situation of the dark zone before making plans.

Wayn Tower was the most damaged on the day of the fall, and it seems that Joker detonated the fear toxin bomb here.

It was working hours, and Wayne Tower was full of Bruce's employees.

[Maria, scan below. 】Tony calmly gave the order,【Check whether it can be connected to the underground generator. 】

[Okay, Tony. 】

Ten seconds later, Maria reported that all the underground backup power generation equipment had been destroyed.

【Open

monitor. 】

[Monitoring 80% damaged, the undamaged part can be opened. 】

As he thought, Batman is a super control freak. There are monitors in every corner of the Wayn Tower, and there are not even dead spots.

Even if 80% are already in a state of destruction, the amount preserved is very impressive.

The monitoring screen was called up, and the entire situation of Wayne was displayed in front of Tony for a while.

"What's all this?"

There are corpses everywhere, even if Tony is not a forensic doctor, he can see that these corpses are all traces of fighting.

Fear toxin evokes the deepest fear in people's hearts, making them regard everything they see as something they fear, and try their best to defeat them.

Then Gotham became hell.

After a few glances, Tony could already tell that there were basically no people alive in Wayn Tower, and I'm afraid there might not be many people on the periphery of Gotham.

However, the point of his coming in was not to save people, but to find a device to maintain such a strong fear toxin, and then dispel the poisonous mist.

The damage that an explosion can cause is limited, and to maintain such a thick and persistent toxin, either there is a device that continuously transports the toxin to the lower city, or it is magic.

Solve the problem of the lower city that can only be fundamentally ended by installing or disabling magic.

Tony found the crux of the problem as soon as he turned his mind.

But one problem right now is that he can't scan the whole of Lower Gotham.

The fear toxin is so strong that it is difficult to scan even one Wayne Tower, let alone the entire downtown area?

In fact, the best way is to go to the clown, catch him, and then hang him up, threatening him with those penguins who hang him in mid-air.

The clown has treated others this way, and he deserves to enjoy being treated this way.

But the clown is now in the hands of the Laughing Bat, he will not give the clown to him, no matter how much he laughs at his true love for the clown, that person will not give it to him.

So he could only choose to go into Gotham to find it by himself.

He's going to get the Joker when it's over, Tony thought, and the Laughing Bat too.

In just 5 minutes, he captured the footage he could keep, including the surveillance video before the fall of Gotham—fortunately, the equipment was not affected by the fear toxin, and they were still working honestly at that time.

After 5 minutes, Wayn Tower became calm again. The information was transmitted into his armor. He focused on two tasks, while watching the situation at the time, he exited the office.

The situation was worse than he could have imagined.

The new version of the fear toxin seems to be mixed with a new type of laughing gas. Looking at the faces of those people who were both scared and wanting to laugh, he could almost feel how desperate they were at that time.

Wayne Tower is like this, but what about the rest of downtown?

Downtown Gotham is the financial center of Gotham. When subdivided, the downtown includes multiple areas such as the Diamond District, the Financial District and the Fashion District.Among them, Wayne Tower, Penguin's Iceberg Club, Chinatown, etc. are all famous buildings in Gotham.

Including the GCPD headquarters is also here.

Fortunately, due to the overall chaos in Gotham at the time, most of the GCPD's manpower was dispersed, so it was possible to re-establish a new headquarters outside under Gordon's leadership.

When the lower city fell, most of the affected ordinary people were trapped here, while the criminals who had a keen sense of danger quickly evacuated.

In a real sense, maybe there are more good people left in downtown than in the rest of Gotham.

It's just that these people have become part of Gotham Nightmare.

How many people can survive?There are not many left.

Even if they were alive, staying in the fear toxin for such a long time was enough to turn them into another scarecrow.

[Tony. 】Maria worriedly called Tony's name.

"Don't worry Maria, the fear poison will not kill me," Tony said.

[I'm not worried about your ability Tony, I'm only worried about...] Your mental state.

玛

Leah is the closest AI to Tony. She watched Tony get infected by the clown's blood step by step, but she couldn't do anything.

The infection of the clown's blood is spiritual, not physical.

She didn't approve of Tony entering the dark zone now, where he would encounter a deeper spiritual attack, and she thought it was dangerous.

"You also think I can't keep my heart?" Tony asked calmly.

It's just that there is a danger hidden in the words that he doesn't even know.

Bruce Wayne thought it was okay for him to be infected by the blood of the clown and couldn't keep his heart. How could Maria think so?

Tony doesn't know if he really wants to get into the Dark Zone because he's trying to prove something to Bruce - like, you think I'm a madman trying to get me into Arkham, but whether I'm crazy or not, I definitely know understand what I should do or something.

But he made it clear that he now felt anger at Maria's hesitation.

He's made his AI so smart that now they're telling him what to do, Tony thought grimly.

【Tony, I...】

"Don't worry, Maria." Tony interrupted what Maria was trying to explain, and said decisively, "I know what I'm doing, I can't, and absolutely can't be a Laughing Bat, or a clown."

His irrefutable tone sounded like a tyrant. Maria couldn't dissuade him, so she could only say: 【Yes, I know Tony. 】

Yes, she knew, Tony had told her numerous times that he was unaffected.

The discourse changed from "I'm fine" at the beginning to "How could I be okay again?".

So far he still doesn't think he's affected, even if he freezes Bruce Wayne's body, he still thinks it's just a necessary part.

It is only part of what he needs to do in order to accomplish his own affairs.

He didn't even think there was anything wrong with what he did, or that there was anything wrong.

"Don't say that next time, Maria," Tony said, standing on the edge of the gargoyle. "I don't like to hear it."

He falls forward, as Batman always does, falls forward, falls, spreads his cape, and—

Soaring into the sky.
