Chapter 102: Take a Breath of Fear Potion (Monthly Ticket Plus)

On the other hand, in Wayne Group.

Bruce Wayne forcefully suppressed all dissenting voices and forcibly took all power back into his own hands.

He originally didn't plan to do this. With the influence of the Wayne name on the Wayne Group, he only needed to support people like Lucius to come to power and control everything in the group from behind.

There is no need for him to step into the foreground himself.

But now it's different, the appearance of Downton has brought some changes to him.

Especially after Downton robbed Wayne Manor and even kidnapped Alfred permanently.

Bruce can't wait any longer!

After forcibly driving away the representative of the shareholder group and taking back the shares to the maximum extent, Bruce now has enough power to announce the delisting of Wayne Group at any time!

In short, after easily dealing with the greedy man who was trying to stop a chariot with his bare hands, Bruce immediately returned to the underground R&D department.

Compared with power and wealth, one's home and Ah Fu are the most important.

As soon as he entered the laboratory, he couldn't wait to ask Lucius who was busy.

"Lucius, any good news?"

"You're done so soon?"

Hearing Bruce's voice, Lucius narrowed his eyes in surprise and then asked.

"Are you sure you don't need a break?

I just flew back and forth between Gotham and Nepal, and even on the plane they kept passing experimental models to me.

I got off the plane and had to deal with those greedy devils, and you want to continue the experiment with me right away?"

Having said that, Lucius looked at Bruce worriedly.

Facing Lucius' concerned look, Bruce shook his head with a sullen face.

"After I die, eternal sleep will come naturally.

As for now, since I am still alive, I must cherish time! "

After saying that, Bruce walked forcefully to the centrifuge and looked at the test tubes in the container.

Seeing that Bruce really refused to rest, Lucius shook his head helplessly and said.

"The blue flower you brought back is easy to analyze. After I extracted its core, I easily made a sample.

There is a sample in the test tube. If nothing goes wrong, we just need to evaporate the reagent into gas to affect our nerves.

Rather than saying it is a fear poison, it is the purest nerve poison. It does not use fear to work, but its working principle is to attack nerves purely!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lucius took out a tube of reagent and then transferred the reagent into a simple cylinder at hand.

"I haven't had time to make a better shell for it, but it's essentially a very powerful heater that can vaporize fear agents in three seconds.

To be honest, this pure plant extract is easy to control. I even found time to make its antidote!"

After he finished speaking, Lucius handed Bruce the half-finished fear potion, or rather the fear bomb.

After taking a look at the finished product, Bruce raised his head and asked gloomily.

"Since there is an antidote, can I try it?"

"better not!"

Lucius quickly stopped Bruce from being bold, and he shook his head and explained.

"I have already explained how it works. Its function is not to create fear itself, but to attack our nerves, causing us to instantly enter a state of neurasthenia, or even to the point of being close to brain death!

So at this time, it is important to know what exactly causes our neurasthenia.

For me, perhaps what would torture me would be countless failures, or perhaps a success whose results were stolen by others, which would cause me to suffer a nervous breakdown in an instant.

And for you, Bruce, are you sure you really want to repeat over and over again the images that are so painful that they can cause you a nervous breakdown?"

At this point, Lucius sighed sadly.

And Bruce instantly understood the meaning of Lucius' words.

"I see!"

He couldn't help but nodded as he thought about his past.

For the past seven years, his pursuit of evil has landed him in the hands of the League of Assassins.

During his time in the Assassin's League, he had tasted things like fear gas many times!

The Assassins' League's use of blue flowers is not as crude as Lucius's.

The fear potion made by Lucius can even poison people to death, and the Assassin's League only uses this blue flower to make Bruce see hallucinations of the past over and over again.

As for what kind of illusion he saw?
Of course, it was the alley that changed his life.

That night, Bruce was taken to the opera house by Thomas and Martha to watch the opera Zorro.

This is because there are many stage scenes in the play Zorro that look very much like bats, and Bruce is most afraid of bats.

So, his parents took him out of the Gotham Theater early.

And because they left early, the driver who picked them up was not prepared in advance.

In this way, Bruce and his two companions walked through the alley on foot, trying to get to the parking area, but in the end only one person came out...

Thinking of this, Bruce took a deep breath and then put the sample in his hand aside.

"Since the fear potion is basically complete, I will help you solve the problem of the combination of crazy sound waves. We still have to..."

Ding-ling-ling!!!

Bruce was interrupted by the urgent ringing of the phone, and Lucius quickly picked up the phone and pressed the speakerphone. The next moment, they both heard it at the same time in astonishment.

"Mr. Lucius, brother... brother... the ghost of Gotham... he's come to our company again!
We couldn't stop him at all. He was too strong, and the bullets and anesthetics couldn't penetrate his skin!
He… ahhhh, he came in front of me…”

The phone paused here, and after a moment, Donton's voice came from the phone.

"Hello guys, I am the Downton you have been waiting for!
Why aren't you talking? That's interesting. Is that Bruce himself on the other end of the phone?
If so, could you tell me where you are so I can come find you.

Believe me, if I don't get the right answer, a lot of the wrong people are going to die at the wrong time of the day!"

Having said that, Donton held the phone and waited for the answer from the other end.

After three seconds of silence, Bruce's voice came from the phone.

"I'm Bruce. I'm in the underground R&D department. Give the phone number to the person closest to you. I'll give him authorization and ask him to bring you over."

After saying that, Bruce hung up the phone.

Hearing the busy tone in his hand, Donton grinned.

"He's got quite a temper!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Donton picked out a little girl who had not yet peed from among the dozen or so front desk girls.

"Come on, sister. Bruce will give you authorization. Take me to the underground R&D department."

After explaining things to the front desk, Donton turned around and waved to the nervous security personnel behind him.

"Look guys, I said Bruce and I are friends, and he just gave me the license.
We didn't have to fight, but you were too impulsive.

Next time, remember that instead of trying to stop someone who is doomed to fail, letting someone taller hold up the falling sky is your best choice!"

After saying that, Donton turned around and followed the front desk girl, heading towards the elevator leading to the basement.

Just as Downton was about to walk away, a security guard suddenly plucked up the courage and shouted to Downton from a distance.

"Ghost, you killed my father!"

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Donton turned around and asked the security guard who was shouting casually.

"Which father of yours did I kill?"

"you……!!!"

The security guard's veins popped out instantly, but Donton spread his hands in disdain, then continued to follow the front desk clerk and walked into the elevator.

Only a large group of security guards and countless dazed employees were left, standing there looking at Donton's back in despair.

Not long after, the elevator door slowly opened.

Facing the two people who were silently examining him, Donton smiled and waved his cell phone towards the girl at the front desk.

"Follow me on Facebook, sister."

"I...you...ah?"

After hearing Donton's request, the girl at the front desk was completely paralyzed. She was seen trembling while struggling to take out her cell phone.

Seeing this, Bruce snorted heavily, then strode forward.

While communicating with Downton on his phone, Bruce waved to the front desk.

"Go do your job, Downton is my guest!"

After he finished speaking, Bruce looked straight at Downton, as if to say, "If you don't follow me out of the elevator, I will die on the spot."

What else could Downton say in the face of such a Bruce? He could only pat his little sister on the shoulder.

“From today on, you are also a woman protected by the domineering president Bruce.

Thank me, sister, if it weren't for me, Bruce wouldn't even look at you, haha."

Laughing, Downton followed Bruce to the experimental table.

Looking at the experimental data in front of him, Donton asked Lucius curiously.

"You are Lucius, right? Can you tell me what you are researching?

I can't understand these garbled characters, isn't this a heavenly book?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Donton picked up the rough silver cylinder that was in a particularly eye-catching position, and then pressed the switch of the cylinder with interest.

As the cylinder vibrated slightly, Donton continued with amusement.

“If you hadn’t explained, I would have thought this thing was a small cylindrical tool for women to play with themselves.

This thing is the perfect length, and it vibrates… Holy shit, it sprays!”

Across from them, Lucius and Bruce watched in amazement as the fear poison began to work.

How could they have imagined that the target experimental subject would come to them automatically just after they took out their finished product!
Under the nervous gaze of Bruce and Lucius, Downton smelled the white smoke with interest.

After confirming that this thing had no peculiar smell, he simply brought the fear poison to his mouth and took a deep puff as if he was smoking a cigarette!
"Breathe...breathe!"

When the smoke swirled around in Donton's lungs and came out again, Donton's eyes showed a hint of nostalgia.

In his eyes, Bruce and Lucius had long lost their original appearance and turned into two shelves in the supermarket that Downton opened before he traveled through time!!!
Looking at the extremely familiar shelves, Donton curled his lips in dissatisfaction.

"Fear gas!"

At this point, Donton narrowed his eyes in nostalgia.

It turns out that what I fear most in my heart is becoming the repressed self I was in the past!
