Chapter 102

~6 min read 1,185 words

"Im Batman—tsk tsk tsk, it sounds full of power and makes people feel full of security."

Su Quan appeared silently once again.

Batman stared at Su Quan vigilantly: "You know what I'm thinking?"

Su Quan said with a light smile: "I not only know what you're thinking, but I also know everything about you, past—future—I am omniscient and omnipotent!"

"I don't believe it! No one can be omniscient and omnipotent; even a god cannot!" Batman retorted in a low voice.

Su Quan looked at him with a smile that wasn't quite a smile: "You are expecting me to prove this. Oh—you want to know who the murderer of your parents is!"

Batman's expression moved slightly: "Tell me!"

"Is this your choice as the champion?"

Batman was silent for a few seconds, shook his head, and said deeply: "My wish is for all of us to go home."

Su Quan smiled; would I not think of such an obvious bug?

"Can do."

"I will send you home, and then—grab you back!"

Batman didn't seem surprised: "Then I give up the wish, but—I hope to know what this place is and who you are."

"This is the end of the multiverse timeline. My name is Su Quan; you can also call me the Lord of the Void."

Batman knew the other party could see through his thoughts, so he didn't think about anything, just nodded calmly.

"I hope you keep your word."

As soon as the words fell, a sudden strong sense of dizziness struck.

Batman was stunned, then gritted his teeth and insisted on trying to grab Su Quan.

As a result, just as he reached out his hand, he felt his eyes go dark and fell to the ground with a thud.

The blinding golden sunlight shone on Bruce Wayne's face through the curtains, the warm heat making him open his eyes slowly.

Scenes from before he fainted flashed through his mind like a revolving lantern, and his originally hollow and confused eyes instantly became sharp!

"Click!"

The door in the room was pushed open at this moment, and an old man with silver hair walked in carrying a tray.

"Master, you're awake."

Looking at Bruce Wayne, who had woken up, Alfred shouted happily.

"Alfred, I—"

"You've been missing for eight years, eight whole years. Thank God you've finally returned safe and sound!"

"What?"

Bruce Wayne was shocked and muttered: "I clearly only left for a few hours, at most no more than a day; how could it—how could it be eight years?"

"Master, you really have been missing for eight years." Alfred, who put down the tray, looked at him with tears of joy.

Eight years, eight years—Bruce Wayne had a vague guess.

That Lord of the Void named Su Quan said the location of the brawl arena was the end of the multiverse timeline; because of this reason, did he 'disappear' for eight years?

Bruce Wayne looked at Alfred's white hair: "You've worked hard, Alfred; you, you've gotten old."

"Master, you haven't changed at all, still so young. So, Master, where exactly did you go these eight years?"

"Where did I go? I went to the end of time and participated in an inexplicable competition."

Bruce Wayne muttered, got up, and asked: "How did I come back?"

"A young man with an Eastern face sent you back. He said you promised him ten thousand dollars, and I gave it to him."

Bruce Wayne's expression moved, and he hurriedly asked: "When?"

"Last night."

Bruce Wayne asked again: "You gave him the money? Cash?"

"Yes."

"I see."

Bruce Wayne could almost be certain that the person who sent him back was the Lord of the Void, Su Quan.

And he shouldn't have left Gotham City yet!

Bruce Wayne didn't care about the ten thousand dollars that had been swindled; he cared about the other party's purpose in staying in Gotham City, or rather, staying in this world.

Also, the reason he sent him back eight years later!

"Tell me what happened in these eight years, and the changes in Gotham City in these eight years."

Bruce Wayne had to fill the eight-year gap as soon as possible, and then—find him!

Two flowers bloom, each representing a branch.

At this time, Su Quan was wandering the streets of Gotham City.

Last time, because of time, he grabbed Bruce Wayne and left directly; Su Quan thought it was reasonable, so this time he naturally wanted to enjoy it properly.

For the five people in the first batch, no matter who became the champion, Su Quan would stay in their world for a period of time.

It was said before that they were all carefully selected, and the world each person belonged to was worth Su Quan spending some effort on.

Take this world, for example.

Bane, Catwoman, Miranda—they were all his targets. He was also interested in the Batmobile and the Batpod.

Just a Batman, and not the Batman of the main world, couldn't satisfy Su Quan's appetite.

Yes, this Batman wasn't the Batman of the Justice League in the main world, but the one from the Batman trilogy.

The time Su Quan took him away was eight years ago, which was the time point when Batman had just solved the Joker and Two-Face Harvey Dent.

According to the plot, Batman took on all the crimes, maintaining Harvey Dent's positive image in the public eye.

Afterward, Batman became a criminal wanted by the police and disappeared.

It wasn't until half a year later that Bruce Wayne, whose body was nearly disabled, had to put on the suit again and let Batman return to the world because Bane and Miranda, representing the League of Shadows, wanted to destroy Gotham.

Su Quan originally didn't intend to send Bruce Wayne back eight years later; after all, when traveling to worlds other than Marvel, he couldn't control the exact travel time.

But this time, it might be because Magik's teleportation ability was merged into the Incredible Man's dimensional teleportation.

When traveling, he clearly felt more handy and in control, so he sent Bruce Wayne eight years later, which is now!

Walking on the street, Su Quan found that the simple folk customs of Gotham City were about the same as he imagined.

It was clearly morning, and it was just sunny, but in the blink of an eye, it became overcast and oppressive.

Weird gothic buildings stood tall; although people were coming and going on the street, he didn't see many criminal events happening.

Perhaps it was too early?

After all, if idle gang members could get up early, they wouldn't have become gang members.

That's not right either; this sentence might hold true in other places, but in Gotham, which is almost synonymous with darkness, it's not necessarily true.

"Da da da—" the crisp sound of high heels came from behind Su Quan, from far to near.

Before Su Quan turned around, he smelled a faint, refreshing fragrance drifting over.

A hand hooked his arm from behind, and then a tall figure came into view, followed by a sweet voice.
