The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman.

Chapter 578
As mentioned before, there are many laws in Gotham, but there is another law above these laws, which can be said to be above all standards and rules, that is, the law of Batman above all.

In Gotham, Batman and everything he's created takes precedence over everything else.

The liquid storage device made by Victor is very strong. He has long considered the issue of safety. Some people may wonder why he didn't directly wrap the device with the hardest iron sheet, but use transparent glass material. Is this true? Isn't it for being handsome and ignoring safety?

But in fact, that layer of transparent glass material is much harder than any steel. It is an extremely strong material developed by Victor on the basis of dense ice, and it even has more toughness than hard diamonds. , so that it will not be brittle even if it is very thin, and it has excellent airtightness, so it will not be damaged so easily.

But once its counterpart is Batman's own Batarang, it becomes truly as brittle as glass.

Victor thought about it, and it was impossible for him to think that Batman would use bat darts to attack this thing. He even expected that someone might use nuclear bombs to attack here, so this material is even resistant to high temperature, impact, and radiation. , but it is not bat dart-proof.

Batman and everything he's made, everything in Gotham, so the moment the batarang hits this solid material, it shatters.

It doesn't matter if it shatters, the liquid in it squirts out, it doesn't matter if the liquid squirts out, but there's another law of Gotham, the villain's backstory is never wasted, what's due will always come.

In the background story of Freeze Man, Victor became Freeze Man because of the leakage of frozen gas after a power outage. Quite unsurprisingly, another Freeze Man was created.

Or, more than one.

It is Thomas who was cleaned and transformed by this material. He has all the conditions to become a Freeze Man, and perfectly inherited the background story of Freeze Man, although this story is a bit bizarre and tortuous.

The only thing that went wrong was Lex.

Previously, Lex met the original Schiller who was about to leave the Metropolis a few years ago. At that time, the original Schiller found that Lex had been given an excessive amount of sedative drugs, which caused serious damage to his development and body organs. Impact.

Perhaps out of sympathy, Schiller fed Lex a certain amount of fine wine, that is, the Dionysian factor.

Since Lex used very little amount, it didn't bring much improvement to him. It slightly accelerated his recovery ability, and gave him some night vision ability.

Even Alberto, who once fell directly into a wine pool full of Dionysus factors, did not become a monster with super resilience like Deadpool. From this point of view, the self-healing effect brought by Dionysus factors, Doesn't seem to be that strong at all.

However, the Dionysian factor can't work, not because the two can't absorb it, but because, in addition to the pharmacological and pathological effects, the Dionysian factor is more like a mystical existence. It works on someone, that's the clown.

It's not the clown, even with the Dionysus factor, the improvement it brings is not great, and it is impossible for the clown to be hemiplegic after being beaten by Batman the day before, and continue to make troubles alive and kicking the next day.

However, Lex's encounter this time fits another background story, which is the clown.

Don't forget, the Joker has an origin story of falling into a chemical pool, and Lex didn't fall into it this time, but was completely overwhelmed by the chemical agent, and the effect was the same.

And this time the accident was caused by Batman himself, which means that it overlapped with the background of the red hood again, and Lex became the person chosen by Batman.

The birth process of the Gotham villain can be regarded as a stir-fry, one raw material, another raw material, put into the pot and stir-fry, and a villain can be fried.

Sometimes, a dish only needs one ingredient, such as frozen people, you only need to throw in a handful of "leakage of low temperature laboratory raw materials" to cook a dish.

As for the dish of the clown, two raw materials are needed to fry well. First, throw a necessary main ingredient into the pot, which is "Batman's choice", and the rest can choose the background story of "falling into the chemical pool". "Dionysian factor", or "mentally abnormal" and other traits.

Add any sub-ingredient to the main material, and you can fry a dish called clown. Now, Lex not only added the main material, but also added two sub-materials, which are the background story of "falling into the chemical pool" and "The Dionysian Factor," so it's no surprise that yet another Joker has been born.

But at the same time, Lex fits into the background story of the Freeze Man. The chemical pool that the clown in the original background story fell into had no other effect except to dye his hair and face, but Vic The one made more is not the same. This chemical pool can produce frozen people.

As a result, Lex, who has two background stories at the same time and cooks two dishes with the same ingredients, has become the unprecedented trinity villain-Luthor the Frozen Clown.

At this time, the blue liquid was absorbed by two people close to the liquid storage device. As the liquid became less and less, the two people covered under it gradually revealed their true faces.

Thomas was the first to regain consciousness. After he froze for a moment, he began to scream crazily.

That kind of scream was like a person being thrown into a pan of oil. He kept curling up and scratching his skin, and his body began to smoke visible to the naked eye, as if it was burning.

But this is not surprising. In the original comics, Frozen Man has one of his biggest weaknesses, that is, he must wear low-temperature armor. Once the room temperature is higher than 0 degrees and there is no protective device, he will die.

If it was indeed Victor who suffered this kind of thing, then he could immediately analyze what was going on, and then find the fastest way to maintain his life. After all, he is the most powerful cryogenic scientist in the world. And here is his base camp.

But Thomas is different. He is a college student, and his major has nothing to do with physical chemistry. Although his grades are much better than Bruce's, they are still at the level of ordinary college students, and he has nothing to do with cryogenics. This lab, can't find anything useful here.

He didn't even know what happened, the cells modified by low temperature had already begun to die gradually, but at this moment, Batman walked over, grabbed Thomas, and threw him into the liquid storage device. There was still a bit of blue liquid left in it.

Batman's level must be much higher than that of Thomas, so he saw the problem immediately. Sure enough, after Thomas was soaked in the remaining blue liquid, he stopped screaming, but Lying there blankly looking at the ceiling.

In the final analysis, the strength of Frozen Man lies in his technical level, not in himself. The low-temperature transformation he has received can be said to be a drag.

If he only obtained this kind of low-temperature transformation, he would be worse than an ordinary person. Thomas is in this situation now. Without this blue liquid, he can't survive at all.

Batman ignored Thomas's hateful gaze. He turned his head and looked at another figure standing in the shadow of the room. The laughter just now sent chills down his back.

Lex's skin was paler now than before, and when he looked up, Batman saw the familiar crazy grin on his face.

The reason why Lex was not afraid of room temperature, and did not almost spontaneously ignite like Thomas, was precisely because the Dionysian factor in his body was fully functioning, and this competition between low temperature transformation and self-healing ability brought him even more strong ability.

Taking advantage of the moment when Batman stared blankly at that smile, Lex stretched out a hand, and the cold mist floated towards Batman. In just one second, a thin layer of ice formed on the outside of the Batsuit.

Batman retreated extremely quickly. When he landed and stabilized his body, he exhaled a mouthful of white mist that was visible to the naked eye. At this time, the temperature in the room had dropped to close to freezing point.

The blue liquid that was absorbed into the body by Lex did not completely transform his cells, because the Dionysian factor in his body was constantly allowing his cells to heal themselves, so this kind of liquid that could reach an emergency The frozen liquid was stored in Lex's body and became a kind of his power.

To put it simply, Lex has now turned into a freezing gun with sufficient fuel, and the handling is not limited by the form of the weapon, and can also change various forms of freezing.

With Freeze's technology, Joker's madness, and Luthor's wisdom, Batman took a deep breath. He knew that a bitter battle was coming.

At this time, in the ward of Gotham Central Hospital, Schiller was sitting in front of a hospital bed, Gordon was standing opposite the hospital bed, and lying on the hospital bed was the third victim, who had been stabbed a few times According to the information in Schiller's hand, her name is Angel.

Gordon's eyes widened, and he asked exaggeratedly, "You mean, no one wanted to kill you, but you stabbed yourself???? You..."

He paused, and then said: "Angel, I know, Gotham is a very dangerous place, there are many people here who may kill you, maybe they threaten you, so that you can't tell the truth, but there are I'm with Professor Schiller, and you should trust us."

"Tell the truth, we will bring the real culprit to justice, you are safe..."

The pale Angel shook her head, her expression was a little dazed, she said: "No, what I said is true, the one who wants to kill me is myself, I may be crazy."

"Tell me specifically, what's going on?" Schiller did not refute Angel like Gordon did, because he could see that Angel's mental state was indeed not good.

Her complexion was pale, not entirely because she had been stabbed a few times and lost too much blood. Judging from the details of her skin, her complexion should have been going on for a while.

Angel closed his eyes, and said in a very weak voice: "About a few days ago, I started to have a strange feeling, whenever I saw my good friend Berenna, I felt a... ...There is a kind of..."

Angel showed a very painful expression, and said in a crying voice:
"I just... have the urge to kill her."
