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, Batman is above all laws.
In Gotham, Batman and everything he creates takes precedence over everything else.
The liquid storage device made by Victor is very strong. He has already considered safety issues. Some people may wonder why he didn't just wrap the device with the hardest iron sheet, but with transparent glass. Is this right?
Isn't it just for the sake of looking good that you ignore safety?
But in fact, that layer of transparent glass is much harder than any steel. It is an extremely strong material developed by Victor on the basis of dense ice. It is even more tough than hard diamond.
, so that even if it is very thin, it will not be very brittle, and it has excellent sealing properties and will not be damaged easily.
However, once its opponent becomes a Batarang made by Batman himself, it will become as brittle as glass.
Victor couldn't imagine that Batman would use batarangs to attack this thing. He even expected that someone might use a nuclear bomb here, so this material is even anti-high temperature, anti-shock, and anti-radiation.
But it's not protected against bat darts.
Batman and everything he made, everything in Gotham, so the moment the Batarang touched this solid material, it shattered.
It doesn't matter if it breaks, the liquid inside squirts out, it doesn't matter if the liquid squirts out, but there is another law of Gotham, the villain's backstory will never be wasted, what is supposed to come will always come.
In the background story of the creation of Mr. Freeze, Victor became Mr. Freeze because of the leakage of freezing gas after a power outage. But this time, it was also Victor's laboratory, and the same frozen material leaked.
Not surprisingly, another Mr. Freeze was created.
In other words, there is more than one.
The person who was cleaned and transformed by this material was Thomas. He had all the conditions to become Mr. Freeze and perfectly inherited the background story of Mr. Freeze, although this story is slightly bizarre and twists and turns.
The only one with problems was Lexus.
Previously, Lex had met the native Schiller who was about to leave the metropolis a few years ago. At that time, the original Schiller discovered that Lex had been overdosed with sedative drugs, causing damage to his development and body organs.
had a serious impact.
Perhaps out of sympathy, Schiller fed Rex a certain amount of wine, which was the Dionysian factor.
Since the amount of use of Rex is very small, the improvement brought to him is not big. It slightly speeds up his recovery ability, and also gives him some night vision capabilities.
Even Alberto, who once fell directly into a pool of wine full of Dionysian factor, did not become a super-resilient monster like Deadpool. From this point of view, the self-healing effect brought by Dionysian factor,
It doesn't seem that strong at all.
However, the reason why the Dionysian factor cannot exert its effect is not because the two of them cannot absorb it, but because, in addition to its pharmacological and pathological effects, the Dionysian factor is more like a mystical existence.
The person who plays a role is the clown...
It's not the Joker. Even if he has the Dionysian factor, the improvement it brings is not big. He can't be like the Joker who was paralyzed by Batman the day before and continued to be active and causing trouble the next day.
However, Lex's encounter this time fits another background story, that of the Joker.
Don't forget, the Joker has an origin story, which is that he fell into a chemical pool. Although Lex didn't fall into it this time, he was completely overwhelmed by the chemicals, and the effect was the same.
Moreover, this accident was caused by Batman himself, which means that it coincides with the background of the Red Hood, and Lex has become the person chosen by Batman.
You can think of the creation process of Gotham's villains as a stir-fry. Add one raw material to another and put it into the pot to stir-fry, and then you can stir-fry a villain.
Sometimes, a dish only requires one raw material, such as a frozen man. You only need to throw in a handful of "cryogenic laboratory raw material leaks" and you can cook a dish.
As for the Joker dish, you need two raw materials to stir-fry it well. First, you throw into the pot a must-have main ingredient, which is "Batman's Selection". For the rest, you can choose the background story of "Falling into a Chemical Pool".
"Dionysian factor", or "being mentally abnormal" and other characteristics.
By adding any auxiliary material to the main material, you can cook a dish called clown. Now, Lex not only added the main material, but also added two auxiliary materials, which are the background of "falling into the chemical pool"
story and the "Dionysian factor", so, not surprisingly, another clown was born.
But at the same time, Rex fits the background story of Mr. Freeze. The chemical pool that the Joker fell into in the original background story had no other effect except dyeing his hair and face.
The one made by Kedo is different. This chemical pool can create Mr. Freeze.
As a result, Lex, who had two backstories at the same time and made two dishes out of the same ingredients, became an unprecedented trinity of villains - Luther the Frozen Clown.
At this time, the blue liquid was absorbed by the two people close to the liquid storage device. As the liquid became less and less, the two people covered underneath gradually revealed their true appearance.
Thomas was the first to regain consciousness. After being stunned for a moment, he began to scream crazily.
The scream was like a person being thrown into a frying pan. He kept curling up and scratching his skin. His body began to smoke visibly, as if it was burning.
But this is not surprising. In the original comics, Mr. Freeze has one of his biggest weaknesses, which is that he must wear cryogenic armor. Once the room temperature is higher than 0 degrees and there is no protective device, he will die.
If it is indeed Victor who suffered this kind of thing, then he can immediately analyze what is 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 this 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 an ordinary college student and have nothing to do with cryogenics. Moreover, it is also his first time here.
I can't find anything useful in this laboratory...
He didn't even know what was happening. The cells modified by low temperature had begun to die gradually. But at this time, Batman walked over, grabbed Thomas, and threw him into the liquid storage device.
There is a little blue liquid left in it.
Batman's level must be much higher than Thomas, so he saw the problem right away. Sure enough, after Thomas was soaked in the remaining blue liquid, he no longer screamed, but
Lying there blankly looking at the ceiling.
In the final analysis, Mr. Freeze's strength lies in his technical level, not in himself. The cryogenic transformation he received can be said to be a drag.
If you only obtain this low-temperature transformation, you will be worse than ordinary people. Thomas is in this situation now. He cannot survive without this blue liquid.
Batman ignored Thomas's hateful gaze. He turned his head and looked at the other figure standing in the shadow of the room. The laughter that had just sounded sent chills down his back.
Now, Lex's skin was paler than before, and when he looked up, Batman saw a familiar crazy smile on his face.
The reason why Lex is not afraid of room temperature and does not almost spontaneously combust like Thomas is because the Dionysian factor in his body is at full effect, and this battle between low-temperature transformation and self-healing ability has also brought him
More powerful capabilities.
Taking advantage of the moment when Batman looked at that smile, Lex stretched out a hand, and the cold mist drifted towards Batman. In just a second, a thin layer of ice formed on the outside of the Batsuit.
.
Batman backed away quickly. When he landed and stabilized his body, he exhaled a breath of white mist visible to the naked eye. At this time, the temperature in the room had dropped to close to freezing point.
The blue liquid absorbed into Lex's body did not completely transform his cells, because the Dionysian factors in his body were constantly allowing his cells to heal themselves. Therefore, this kind of liquid could achieve
The frozen liquid was stored in Lex's body and turned into a kind of power for him.
To put it simply, Lex has now turned into a freezing gun with sufficient fuel, and its handling is not limited by the weapon form, and it can also change various freezing forms.
With the exciting technology, the Joker's madness, and Luther's wisdom, Batman took a deep breath and knew that a tough battle was coming next.
At this time, in the ward of Gotham City Center Hospital, Schiller was sitting in front of a hospital bed, and Gordon was standing opposite the hospital bed. The third victim lying on the hospital bed was the one who had been stabbed several times.
The girl in question, according to the information in Schiller's hands, 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 that Gotham is a very dangerous place. There are many people here who may kill you. Maybe they have threatened you so that you cannot tell the truth, but there are
Professor Schiller and I are here, you should trust us."
"Tell the truth and we will bring the real culprit to justice. You will be safe..."
The pale Angel shook her head, her expression a little dazed, and she said: "No, what I said is true. The one who wants to kill me is myself. I may be crazy."
"Tell me more specifically, what happened?" Schiller did not refute Angel like Gordon did, because he could see that Angel's mental condition was indeed not good.
Her face was pale, not entirely because she had been stabbed several times and lost too much blood. Judging from the details of her skin, her bad complexion must have been going on for some time.
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 Belenna, I felt like...
…There’s a kind of…”
Angel showed a very painful expression and said with a cry:
