What bad intentions could Batman have?

Chapter 413: The Birth of the Parallax Demon (5,000-word chapter)

Strictly speaking, "the authority of the master of the Yellow Lantern Corps" cannot be considered a concrete thing.

In the original comics, Atrocitus was rebellious by the Red Lantern Corps and became a lonely man. His ability to control other Red Lanterns could only affect his companions who were still crazy and had not been cleansed by the blood pool to restore their sanity.

When he turned all his companions back to normal creatures, Atrocitus's poor leadership ability was simply no match for them. Even in the Seven Lantern Corps, his leadership was notorious.

(Note: Yes, it was shameful to be usurped by a certain Earth Red Lantern.)

But the situation of the Sinestro Corps was different.

When Sinestro established the Yellow Lantern Corps, he did not regard the murderers and scum under his command as his companions, but as consumables. This was the same as Chen Tao, and this was also what Chen Tao liked about him. Although Sinestro is now...

But his control over the Yellow Lantern rings he forged still exists. Sinestro is not Atrocitus, the leader of the Corps who changed his career halfway. His understanding of the rings is almost as good as some of the Guardians of the Universe.

Therefore, his control over the rings is as precise as that of a single ring, which is why he can easily press Mongo, who is wearing five or six rings, to the ground in the original comics.

Only when Chen Tao synchronizes with Batisto can he truly feel what Sinestro has done to carefully control the entire Yellow Lantern Corps. Every Yellow Lantern ring is his eyes and ears, and his servant.

And Mongo doesn't know this at all, otherwise he wouldn't do such a stupid operation as giving Death Storm a Yellow Lantern ring.

When Mongo thought he had figured out the basic principle of the operation of the Yellow Lantern Ring, and could even directly program the Yellow Lantern Ring to make it violate his original order of "finding a person who is good at manipulating fear as a Lantern Man", and instead fly to a certain place and select a designated person as the host, why didn't he think that if he could tamper with the Yellow Lantern Ring to this extent, why couldn't Sinestro do it?

No one can control the entire Yellow Lantern Corps beyond Sinestro. No one, only Sinestro himself can control those Yellow Lantern rings. His authority is higher than anyone else, because these rings are forged by him using the weapon master's technology.

Only Sinestro himself.

But the problem is... Batman, his body, is also Sinestro's.

Although he used cosmetics to make up his red skin of the Koruga star back to the white skin of the earthlings, and used the Yellow Lantern ring to protect his titanium chin all the time in battle, and even defeated Green Lantern John Stewart in the comics without losing a bit of powder on his face, this still cannot change one fact:

Like the Red Death, he is not a complete Batman, but a Sinestro with Batman's memories and emotions, and the one who has been twisted and corrupted in the dark multiverse.

He is a monster living in a universe that is born incomplete, a tragedy that is neither Batman nor Sinestro.

"I can't do that, Mongo." Chen Tao said, trying his best to act as if nothing had happened, so that Mongo would not think that he was different from usual after synchronizing with Batman.

Chen Tao felt that all the bones in his body were groaning under the heavy burden... He only synchronized with Batman for a short while, and he felt that he was about to be crushed.

As an S-level Batman, Batman was born to be incomparably compatible with the power of the Yellow Lantern's fear, but it also brought a huge burden.

Sinestro was the only one in the entire Lantern Corps epic who could be possessed by the Parallax Monster but could reversely control the Yellow Lantern's beast, and this trait was also shown in Batman.

"You have already felt it, right." Chen Tao said.

Mongo in front of him was silent.

The battlefield below was still fighting, and those Kryptonian annihilators were still resisting stubbornly.

"You can't compete with me for the control of the Yellow Lantern Corps. Give up, Mongo."

"The outcome is already clear... You have no ability to take away the Green Lantern Central Energy Battery or anyone in the Death Storm from me. You have already felt it, right? Do you still think you can take the Yellow Lantern's beast away from me?"

Mongo's rotten face was livid and he didn't speak.

"Ah ...

"You used the same technique that destroyed the OA star on Death Storm again." Chen Tao said, "I've always been curious. Yes, Karona can use his chain to trap the Light Beast from a very long distance, but that doesn't mean you, Mongo, can do it." The expression on Mongo's rotten face became uglier and uglier. "But according to Killer Croc's report, you pulled the Parallax Monster away from Death Storm in just one move. This is ridiculous. If the Death Storm matrix is ​​so weak in restraining the Lantern Beast and it was so easy to break through, then the Parallax Monster would have escaped by itself and would not need you at all. So the answer is obvious. It's a very common magic trick. Mongo, you should know that you can't play these in front of me." While talking to Mongo, Chen Tao whispered to Killer Croc through the connection of the Red of All Living Things: "Where did you get the Green Lantern Central Energy Battery?" Since the Green Lantern Central Energy Battery was dug out by Sinestro, Chen Tao also put it into the Red of All Living Things. Although Killer Croc had it in his hand when he was escaping with Arlene Su, it was obvious that when he came here with Arlene Su, such a large lamp stove could not follow him. "I used a spaceship to release it thousands of kilometers away. Now the spaceship is set to cruise, and it is secretly there with the Green Lantern Central Energy Battery." Killer Croc told Chen Tao a coordinate while speaking. Chen Tao nodded at him imperceptibly, and then gave him an order: "Contact the ventriloquist and ask him to protect you to retrieve the Green Lantern Central Energy Battery. Bring Bane, capture a Green Lantern, and then ask him to replace Bane under the control of Black Mercy." "A Green Lantern? Are you sure he will help us?" "Believe me." Chen Tao said: "You can convince any Green Lantern to help." Although the Guardians of the Universe are a bunch of complete garbage, it cannot be said that all members of the Green Lantern Corps are moral role models, but at least they are good people in the popular sense, even the former Sinestro. Although some "good" is "bad" from a different standpoint, for now, as long as you stand on the same standpoint as these Green Lanterns, it is a very easy thing to ask them for help. "Death Storm stays."

Chen Tao reminded Killer Croc: "Don't touch him, and don't appear next to him, otherwise it will attract Mongo's attention."

On Mongo's side, he was still exerting his strength, trying to find a way to seize Death Storm.

A large amount of green energy emerged from his body, constantly condensing into dark green iron chains, and then deep into the void, followed by Death Storm. Not far away, more iron chains stretched out and hung on Death Storm's body. The Parallax Monster was pulled out of his body by him, but was pulled back to Death Storm by more yellow power.

"Ah ... The two of them used Death Storm as a rope for tug-of-war, and they had a good fight. Death Storm was almost in pain. Although the Death Storm Matrix had given him the power to seal the Parallax Monster, it kept going in and out like this. Has anyone considered the feeling of this bag? ? ?

"Does it really make sense?"

Mongo heard Batman's voice: "Look at you, Mongo."

"You are festering all over, as disgusting as a pile of shit."

Mongo didn't say anything. He kept agitating his strength. Although he could no longer compete with Batman for the authority of the Yellow Lantern Corps, as long as he caught the Parallax Monster...

He had no choice. For all this today, he had leveraged too much power that did not belong to him.

Black Death Emperor, Karona, Lantern No. 1, Lord of Decay Anton Akan...

Mongo owed a debt to each of them, or made enemies with them.

He had even given up control of his body, and even let his body be blown to pieces.

If this could not get what he wanted and gain the power he hoped for, then what he did would be meaningless.

As the saying goes, there is no retreat.

"But you can't move forward now, Mongo."

Mongo heard the voice, he heard the fact.

That's right.

In front of him was Batman. He defeated Sinestro, but he could never defeat a second Sinestro.

He...

He was very tired.

Using the power of the Black of Corruption was not without cost. The Black of Corruption that Mongo used was not granted by the Corrupted Parliament, but directly borrowed from Anton A Kane by the Black Death Emperor.

This means that these powers are not pure, mixed with too much of Anton A Kane's personal will. Mongo knew very well that this thing was even more powerful than the pure Black of Corruption, but the only drawback was that it could not be used more.

These powers were transformed by Anton A Kane to be too corrosive, far exceeding the destructive power and offensiveness of ordinary Black of Corruption.

Mongo controlled himself with his strong willpower, and he has not been corroded by Anton A Kane until now.

Mongo paid a lot for today.

He has invested too much sunk cost, which means...

"You still have a choice, Mongo."

He heard Batman's words.

"I see that there is something wrong with your body, but I can help you, and I am willing to help you."

"I can let Bane help you sort out the black power of decay in your body. You don't have to worry that after Anton A Kane extracts the black power of decay, you will be seriously injured and die on the spot because of your broken body."

"I can let Bane use his black power of decay to replace the black power of decay mixed with Anton A Kane's will in your body."

"Do you know Bane? He is the spokesperson of the black power of decay. The black power of decay is..."

"...and the relationship between Anton A Kane and the black council of decay is..."

"So you understand?"

He heard Batman's voice was somewhat sincere: "And I can also use the wolf cells to help you reshape your body, you can continue to live, and even your strength will not be affected too much."

Mongo did not speak.

He would never listen to Batman's words. These were just lies that the other party was trying to make him weak.

Mongo knew these words very well. When facing the gangsters who were fighting desperately, "As long as you surrender, you will not be sentenced to death" has always been the most commonly used words, but such words will not have any impact on the final result, but the gangsters will often fall for this set of words uncontrollably, because deep in their hearts...

People are always willing to believe what they want to believe.

But he is Mongo, he is a cosmic tyrant, not those third-rate interstellar pirates.

These words can't shake his mind at all. The worse the situation, the clearer Mongo's thinking.

He...

Then, it was like an invisible tentacle carrying Mongo's forehead.

Mongo saw three pink spots on Batman's forehead, and his skin turned green.

What is that?

Mongo didn't know that he was secretly alert, but then Batman's words rang in his mind: "I used a Brainiac ability, a telepathy to speak in your mind, don't rush to drive my thoughts out... Through this telepathic connection, you can tell whether I am lying or not." "I can also propose another possibility to you: you have now provoked the Black Death Emperor and three other troublesome people, but as long as you are willing to stop, I and the entire Yellow Lantern Corps are willing to fight for you to ensure that you are free from the revenge of the Black Death Emperor and the other three." "Think about it, they will not let you go, you are simply the best spokesperson for them." "But as long as you are willing to let go..." He heard Batman say: "I will swear to save your life sincerely, even if I still think you are an irredeemable villain, but I swear to myself, if you are willing to stop and stop creating disputes-" "I am willing to do my best to protect you, and even not take back the Yellow Lantern Ring in your hand." "You understand that my negotiation is from the heart." Mongo listened to Batman's conditions. To be fair, such conditions were very generous. Not only did he promise a future position in the Yellow Lantern Corps, but he also promised to help him fight against the large number of dangerous characters he had recruited.

Mongo was almost tempted...

Almost.

He could feel that Batman was sincere, and his induction ability was very wonderful. Although he could disconnect him at any time, he could still sense some of Batman's emotions.

He didn't lie in every word he said, and he didn't think about bypassing the oath, not talking about martial ethics, etc.

It can be said that if Mongo agreed, things would really be as Batman said.

In fact, Mongo knew very well that his chances of winning were very slim after the confrontation. He was like a gambler with few cards. He borrowed a lot of high-interest loans from here and there, and sat at the gambling table with all his heart. He became the one with the most chips, and then lost everything.

However, at the end of the game, another gambler told him that as long as he was willing to fold and admit defeat, he would be willing to take care of him for the rest of his life and help him resist the loan sharks, either by beating the loan sharks to death or by helping them pay back the loan sharks. In short, he didn't need to worry about it.

You can confirm that what he said was true. In such a situation, no matter who it was, they would hesitate.

Since losing was already an established fact, why not use the few chips left in your hand to exchange for a better ending?

Yes, that's right, this does seem to be the right thing to do.

But ah...

"I swear to you. I will become the new Mongo, and the current Mongo will wait for death in a distant place that is not blessed by his gods. His soul will be lost in nothingness forever."

Mongo whispered, he raised his head slightly, and the faint light reflected by the stars in the universe shone on his half-rotten face.

Now he only had his head intact, a head connected to his broken body, but Mongo was still whispering, as if praying.

He was reciting some kind of oath.

"When death finds him, his soul will only merge with the world of war and be reborn as a worm that eats carrion on the wounds of the dead."

"When death finds him, he will not wake up in the Garden of the Dead with those brave warriors in the war zone. He will only become dead grass, maggots, or scavengers. There will not be any piece of metal with his name engraved on it."

"The War Zone tribe never protects the weak."

He whispered...

"The dead... said so."

Then he turned to look at Batman with a resolute expression: "War World is above."

Then a dark green light burst out of his mouth and nose, and the light became brighter and brighter, like the last burning fireworks when a meteor streaked across the sky.

Mongo yelled with his eyes wide open, and as he roared, the dark green chain made a huge buzzing sound. Amid the violent screams of the death storm, one yellow light chain after another was broken, and the parallax monster was pulled hard, just dragged so hard, and pulled into Mongo's body from such a long distance! ! !
