Starting from scratch, Batman crushed my dream of getting rich

Chapter 448 A Killing Intent Leads to Demonic Intent

Clark's conversation with Ma Zhaodi calmed him down a little, but when he heard Ma Zhaodi declare that he had no principle of not killing, Clark became somewhat apprehensive again.

He wasn't sure why he felt this subtle unease, as Ma Zhaodi himself said that his abilities were not extraordinary.

Clark could also sense that Ma Zhaodi's body was stronger than Batman's, not quite human, but not to the point of being immune to bullets; his senses were more acute, but not enough to cover an entire block; he had the Speed ​​Force, but needed to recharge—overall, he was only slightly stronger than a normal person, but not particularly superhuman.

He even seemed very kind. Clark wasn't the kind of fool who would unconditionally trust anyone he met, but the moment he saw Ma Zhaodi, he knew that the other person was someone he could confide in.

“So he’s a trustworthy friend and respects our opinions,” Clark thought to himself. “Most importantly, his abilities are decent, but I still felt a chill down my spine when I heard him claim that he has no principle of not killing.”

"why is that?"

Clark didn't have much time to think before another scene unfolded before them. This time, it wasn't the scene of Louis fighting the mechanical superhero.

Instead, it's a scene of Louis fighting Batman.

“You’re doing things the wrong way, Louis.” Batman’s voice was serious and deep: “Killing them all won’t help. A bad environment will only create more supervillains.”

"Then I'll kill all the supervillains behind me too!"

The crimson light surging in Louise's eyes and the "S" symbol on her chest were just like her raging fire: "All these years, your principles haven't made the world a better place at all, not once! You're just a loser!"

"And what about Clark? He has the same principles as me. Is he a loser?"

Clark is dead!

A terrifying energy surged and burned within Louise. The mention of Superman made her grief and anger almost uncontrollable, and she threw a punch at Batman.

With just one punch, Batman, who wasn't wearing the Anti-Superman armor, was sent flying more than ten meters away, coughing up blood. He endured the excruciating pain, rolled over to recover, and immediately pulled out a green kryptonite.

Louis then punched him again.

“I am an Earthling. Your plan is only effective against Kryptonians,” she said coldly. “Now, stop and surrender.”

How did Earthlings acquire such superhuman strength?

The thought flashed through the old bat's mind, but then he realized it was no longer important.

He dragged his broken body, gritting his teeth and struggling to stand up—but he knew that his internal organs had begun to bleed, his sternum was almost completely broken, and his right hand was slightly fractured. He was in very bad shape, or rather, he was running out of time.

If you don't compromise, you'll die.

"Batman never compromises."

The bats in the night had hoarse voices, but their tone remained as rational as ever.

Then a red light shone in Louis's eyes.

boom--!
The scene abruptly ended there, and neither Clark nor Ma Zhaodi spoke. Although they hadn't witnessed Batman's death, they had already seen the ending of the story.

Lois, who confronted Superman, eventually embraced Superman's corpse and wept, transforming into Nemesis; Lois, who confronted Batman, was later accused by the crowd of killing Batman.

With the result in mind, the process is not difficult to guess.

“Try to think positively. Although Louise in this universe went to extremes, it doesn’t necessarily mean that was her original intention.” Ma Zhaodi sighed. “In the Dark Multiverse, the erosion of certain energies can poison people’s thoughts, ideas, and decisions at certain moments. Many seemingly abnormal developments may be the result of calculation.” “You mean that gaze?”

"That's right, it's almost certainly true."

The scene jumps again, and this time, Louis appears in front of the Joker.

"emm?"

Under the clown's astonished gaze, Louis, whose eyes glowed red, didn't say a word to him and simply melted him with his heat gaze.

"Louis! What are you doing?!"

Batman leaped down from the rooftop, using his cape to cushion the fall, and rolled to the ground.

Louis looked at Batman, his face expressionless.

"When Clark died in battle, why didn't you arrive as quickly as you did this time?"

The screen disappeared again.

Superman watched Lois cleanly and efficiently take down the Joker without saying a word. Lois's ease in dealing with supervillains left people with mixed feelings, but she didn't hesitate when she took action against Batman afterward.

Let's move the timeline forward.

"We are all saddened by the death of Superman."

With his full head of red hair, Luther looked out the window at Louise flying by, pondering how she had become like this, but his words remained dignified: "I have my own way of mourning—look, this bottle of red wine is from the special batch supplied to the Pope of England—"

“I know you did it, Luther,” Louis interrupted Luther directly: “This nuclear accident.”

"Oh, look at you. You used to be a journalist seeking the truth, but now you can see right through things, right?"

Luther picked up his glass of red wine, a confident smile on his face: "Well, you know, there was a nuclear accident. I was actually quite surprised, although it did benefit me. Oh, don't get me wrong, I'm not talking about what I did, it just helped me sell weapons more easily."

“You see, people usually don’t need weapons when they feel safe. This nuclear accident came at just the right time—but let me emphasize again, I didn’t do it. My top legal team can assure you that the existing evidence is not enough to convict me.”

Therefore, I am innocent.

"What nonsense are you spouting?" Ma Zhaodi, who was watching from the sidelines, couldn't help but interject. "Does Luthor think he's facing Superman?"

Click!

The thick bulletproof glass shattered into pieces in an instant, and Louis easily lifted Luther with one hand and flew into the sky.

"What are you going to do—Aaaaaaah!"

Before Luther could even finish his question, Louise used her supersonic speed to quickly transport him into the atmosphere, and she didn't stop. She sped towards the cosmos, the friction between her body and the gases in the atmosphere generating heat, which then burst into flames, transforming her into a backward-flying fiery meteor.

Louis, now transformed into Superman, was not afraid of the flames. However, Luther was a mere mortal. His mouth was wide open, but he couldn't even scream. The surging air and scorching flames poured into his mouth, surrounding him from the inside out, causing him to burn and melt.

Finally, Lex Luthor, one of the smartest people on Earth and Superman's long-time nemesis, vanished silently into the clouds.
