Chapter 2462

~11 min read 2,125 words

Barbatos actually didn't not notice the Laughing One. After all, his level of madness is also one of the best in all dark multiverses, but as the saying goes, the past is the past, and now is now.

Regarding the state of Barbatos when he recruited the Laughing One at that time, the comic didn't say much, but judging from the subsequent combat situation of Barbatos, the Barbatos Group has always been in a state of relatively lacking people.

Many readers who have read the comic, after reading the entire plot about Barbatos, if asked to name a few generals under Barbatos, in the end, it's still the Laughing Bat on the right hand, the Court of Owls on the left hand, and at most one more Perpetua who has cooperation. Apart from that, they can't think of anything else.

That is to say, Barbatos dominates the entire dark multiverse, and after searching for a long time, in the end, he only found the so-called worst version of Batman, the Laughing Bat.

But this is not surprising. Judging from the presentation of the dark multiverse in the comic, almost all the Batmen here are actually background boards made for the entire metal event. The background stories only care about being novel, most of them have no beginning or end, and many are just hard-riding trendy settings. Being able to pull a general out of short people is already not bad.

So the importance of the Laughing One to Barbatos at that time was self-evident, but since Schiller came, the situation is completely different.

First of all, Bruce, this heavenly star, he doesn't need Barbatos to find him at all. He traveled thousands of miles from a distant universe to the hinterland under Barbatos's rule, and since he came, he didn't come empty-handed. He really learned the art of dragon slaughter just to sell it to the imperial family of Barbatos.

Once Bruce took office, he let Barbatos see what is called a pillar of heaven and a beam of the sea.

With the strength of one person, while rectifying the group system structure, while methodically promoting the Light Universe invasion plan, while not forgetting to carry out the dark multiverse investment and integration project, and also finding time to carry out the dark multiverse autumn recruitment. If Barbatos read "Three Kingdoms", he would also praise him as "My Zifang".

At this time, the Laughing Bat became very awkward.

He didn't squat in his universe every day intending to be a mountain king. According to his nature of predicting predictions, could he not know that Barbatos is stupid and rich? Could he not know that he had to rely on Barbatos in the early stage to have the capital to stir up trouble in major universes?

In the original comic, Barbatos really treated the Laughing Bat well. He directly gave the Laughing Bat the ability to modify reality, and even allowed the Laughing Bat to give this ability to his subordinates.

You know, this kind of ability can't be made casually. Compared to Legion on the Marvel side, only the most powerful personalities among Legion's personalities, which can be counted on one hand, have the ability to modify reality, and Legion is an extremely outrageous existence in the mutant system that has always been criticized for combat power collapse.

So, it's not that the Laughing One couldn't leave his universe at that time, but he squatted in his thatched cottage every day just to wait for Barbatos to come and visit.

As a result, a Bruce appeared out of nowhere, and Barbatos didn't come. The Laughing One squatted in his home until his legs were numb, and he didn't see Barbatos's shadow. This thatched cottage was completely turned into a latrine.

Although the best strategy is for Barbatos to come to him and ask for his help, the worst strategy of going to Barbatos himself is not unusable. Although it may affect the ability he gets from Barbatos later, as long as he can use Barbatos's channel to enter the main universe, the problem is not big.

So the Laughing One went to find Barbatos. Of course, all this was said by Bruce through complaints, but he didn't name names, just emphasizing that he was already very tired of doing human resources, but Barbatos suddenly threw a resume to him one day to let him see.

"What else do I not understand about this?" Bruce said, "The boss wants to insert a connection, what can I do? I can only tell him that the person on this resume has really good ability, and the tone is consistent with our company. Why don't you take a look and let him take office tomorrow?"

King Robin was also a bit curious. He said, "Then you aren't worried that he will threaten your position? If it's really like what you said, his ability is so strong, and he can make Barbatos break the rules for him, then once he takes office, he will definitely point fingers at you."

"You don't understand this." Bruce waved his hand and said, "If the boss really valued him so much, he would just notify me to let him take office. Why give me a resume?"

King Robin also thought of this point at the same time. He said, "That's right. Then he threw the resume to you, actually wanting you to refuse?"

"Of course that's not right either." Bruce shook his head and said, "If the boss is embarrassed to refuse an acquaintance and wants me to pick faults, he would definitely arrange for the other party to have an interview, so that I can come forward to refuse. I only pick faults on the resume, but in the end, isn't it still the boss who refuses?"

King Robin and little Bruce outside the screen both nodded. Little Bruce looked at Schiller and asked, "So what does this mean?"

"You don't know?"

"I am usually the boss."

After little Bruce finished this sentence, he began to substitute thinking. If he were the boss, why would he do this?

After a little thought, little Bruce realized with a start. He said, "This person might be someone I valued a long time ago. At that time, I thought his ability was very good, but the situation of the company at that time might be different from now. Although this person's ability is good, he may not be suitable for the company's situation now, so it is necessary for my capable general now to check."

King Robin obviously also thought of this point. He didn't know that the airborne soldier Bruce mentioned was actually the Laughing One, so he speculated, "Of course, it is possible that your boss is worried that he will recruit this person directly, and you will be unhappy."

"Come on, he is not that humane." Bruce snorted coldly and said, "He is just worried that if he recruits people, the two of us will have conflicts and delay work."

"Then since you expressed that you have no opinion at all, why didn't your boss recruit him?"

"This is what you don't understand." Bruce said, "The best way for me not to let him in is to agree readily."

King Robin and little Bruce both narrowed their eyes. Obviously, in this aspect, their brains were a bit slow.

This has to start from Bruce's consistent combat record. Since Bruce graduated from college, you can't say he has defeated any earth-shattering opponents, and you can't say he has any unique fighting style, but there is only one point, he is the most unique among all Batmen in the universe—he can fight in the palace.

It is also possible that he was too idle because he didn't act as Batman too early, or it is possible that he accumulated too rich experience in the mutual torture with Schiller for many years. Anyway, in terms of fighting with people in a closed environment, Bruce said he was number one, and no one dared to say he was number two.

To put it nicely, it's called the mastery of applied psychology and behavioral science. To put it badly, he is born to be a big factory manager.

"What do you think the boss is most worried about?" Bruce asked.

"Didn't you say it? He is worried that the two of you will have conflicts and can't work well." King Robin replied.

"He is indeed worried about this, but it is not the most worried." Bruce smiled and said, "The boss in the whole world is most worried about employees uniting below."

"You can have a capable employee, or two capable employees who compete with each other, but you cannot have several capable employees who are intimate and have unparalleled tacit understanding. Once you have them, it should be you who gets out."

King Robin realized with a start again. He said, "I understand. You want your boss to feel that you and the person he valued before are on the same side. This will make him worry about whether the two of you will unite to deal with him."

"In fact, this is very likely." Bruce said, "I think the person on this resume he threw over has a certain degree of danger. He himself might also be hesitating."

"If it is the start-up stage of the enterprise, then it doesn't matter if this person has shortcomings, as long as the ability is greater than the shortcomings, can lead the whole enterprise forward, the speed of development is fast enough, and no shortcoming is a shortcoming."

"But now that it has reached the stable period of the enterprise, it is necessary to consider whether the damage caused by the shortcomings in the stable system can be compensated by extraordinary ability. If it is just enough to compensate, then it can be recruited or not. If the ability is slightly greater than the shortcomings, then it tends to be recruited."

"But unfortunately, if it is in a situation where the ability is slightly greater than the shortcomings, but it is possible to form a clique or set up another mountain, then it must not be recruited."

"But why does your boss think that the two of you may unite based on your words?"

"Of course, it's not just because of one sentence." Bruce snorted coldly and said, "It's because the two of us are very similar."

King Robin suddenly shivered, because if he wanted to talk about his feeling for Bruce, he couldn't say why, but there was always an inexplicable sense of déjà vu.

At this moment, he realized where this sense of déjà vu came from—this Batman can laugh.

It's not the shell of Bruce Wayne that is disguised that can laugh, nor is it deliberately laughing for performance, he is laughing from the heart.

What is even more terrifying is that he doesn't only have one kind of smile of madness. He can laugh happily, smile proudly, sneer with dissatisfaction, he is like a normal person.

When the last sentence appeared in King Robin's mind, King Robin almost wanted to scream, a normal person Batman!!!!

King Robin didn't even have time to mourn his tragic fate of just coming out of the wolf's den and entering the tiger's mouth. He jumped up and looked at Bruce with almost terrified eyes.

And Bruce smiled at him.

"Let's talk about this." Bruce pointed to the poster in King Robin's hand and said, "Although I always complain that the company is not good here and not good there, our team still has a future. Come, I will introduce our corporate culture to you."

King Robin swallowed his saliva.

But soon he was stunned, because with his wisdom, he immediately speculated that Bruce's boss was Barbatos. Barbatos had valued a person who was very similar to Bruce before, but was eventually kicked out by Bruce using a trick, and whenever the Laughing One mentioned Barbatos, there was no good word in his mouth. Does this mean...

The expression on King Robin's face became bright almost visibly.

"Corporate culture... Yes, corporate culture, I am quite interested in your corporate culture." King Robin tried hard to press his upper lip down, trying to maintain the stability of his voice and said, "And your corporate history, I am especially interested in this part, you must tell me carefully..."

"You aren't in a hurry to find your body? Didn't you say there are many important things inside?"

"It is indeed important, but it is not that important." King Robin twisted his mouth into a straight line parallel to the ground and said, "I think it is more important to understand our corporate culture."
