Chapter 2887

Batman received a call for help from the Justice League.

This could be said to be adding fuel to the fire, taking advantage of a robbery, and kicking a cripple in his good leg, but it was also a daily routine for Batman and the Justice League.

There was such a strange phenomenon: if Batman had no trouble, the Justice League had no trouble. Once Batman was overwhelmed, busy dealing with various crises in the Bat-family, the Justice League would definitely have to find trouble and come over to annoy him.

This universe was clearly the same. Before, when Batman had the winning hand, the Justice League didn't have much movement. Now that Schiller was involved in the cycle of multi-cornered relationships and Batman was busy kicking him out, the Justice League sent a message instead.

Actually, it wasn't a big deal. It was mainly that the expansion of the vampires made them feel worried. Before, this kind of creature only appeared on the East Coast, but recently, traces of vampire activity had also appeared in Coast City and Star City.

This meant that this wasn't the kind of small-scale trouble as before, and the plan they mentioned to block the sunlight might really be implemented. This was absolutely unacceptable to the Justice League.

And as the brain of the Justice League, how could Batman not be there at this time? The Hall of Justice immediately sent a message to the Batcave, and the wording was quite severe, telling Batman to come over immediately.

What made Batman feel even more sorrowful was that although he wanted to kick Schiller out of the Bat-family's relationships, with this kind of thing happening, he could only discuss it with Schiller, and couldn't even bring Dick.

Because the possibility of Schiller being a vampire was too low, even lower than the possibility of himself being a vampire.

"They want you to go over?" In the Batcave, Schiller held a teacup, looked at the content on the communicator, frowned slightly and said, "It seems they are a bit resentful of why you aren't there now. You often gave them such hope in the past, that once something happened, you would inevitably predict it earlier than them and have precautions early on."

"Most of the time, that is indeed the case."

"But this time is different, because the conflict broke out within the Bat-family first, and you haven't had time to take charge of the overall situation." Schiller put down the teacup, tapped his fingers on the table and said, "If you go over now, it proves that you are indeed unprepared, which will greatly reduce their confidence, so it's better to do the opposite."

"You mean..." Batman immediately understood.

In the past, whenever something happened, Batman would notify them. Take this incident as an example: in a normal situation, Batman might have warned them months in advance that vampires might spread.

Although they wouldn't listen, at least it would give them a feeling that everything was under Batman's control. No matter how the situation deteriorated, Batman would have a way. This was the spiritual pillar of the Justice League.

But on one hand, Batman was busy with the Battleworld and had slight negligence regarding the reality universe. On the other hand, just after returning, the Bat-family caught fire, and he was busy putting out the fire here, so he couldn't take care of the big picture.

This was normal. According to Schiller's observation, the Batman of this universe wasn't very strong, far worse than the Arkham Batman, and there was a certain gap with the main universe Batman. Schiller felt he was about equivalent to the late-stage Bane-Batman.

Before manipulating, although he hadn't read the comics, he roughly knew that the Batman in this comic should have died early on; otherwise, the comic wouldn't have been able to draw two parts. From this, it could be inferred that this Batman's strength was average.

If it were Arkham Batman, these things in the Bat-family would have been solved long ago. Not to mention stuffing everyone into cans, at least it would be one sleep pod for each, thrown to the bottom of the Batcave to sleep. After all, there were still hundreds of trophy performance indicators, and no time to waste here.

So Schiller could be considered as teaching according to aptitude. If you don't have the diamond drill, don't take on the porcelain work. Now it was clearly not the time to participate in the Justice League dungeon. Let's solve the things at hand first.

Batman also understood his intention. Anyway, he was indeed unprepared. If he rushed to the Justice League now, not to mention not being able to help, it would easily give everyone the illusion that he was indeed completely unprepared, greatly reducing their trust.

It would be better to pretend that everything was under control. You urge as you urge, I won't move here. If asked, it's actually that I had expected it long ago, but I have other plans.

And Batman also understood the Justice League relatively well. Although the vampires had some momentum of expansion, they were far from reaching the level of conquering the world. They just loved to make a fuss.

So Batman sent back a communication, the gist of which was: don't panic, I have more important things to do at hand. Now everyone go back to their own cities to garrison. Those who haven't defended their cities, form teams themselves to go to the blank areas to defend, and limit the vampires' activities as much as possible.

This could also be considered as arranging tasks for them. Batman wasn't the kind of micro-management type, and the others in the Justice League weren't fools. With things said to this point, the vast majority of Justice League heroes could perform their duties and complete the tasks.

But the strange thing was, half an hour after Batman sent this letter, the Hall of Justice actually replied.

They said that according to the current momentum of the vampires, the Justice League should come up with a better response plan, so they invited Batman to participate in the meeting.

Batman didn't understand. What momentum do the vampires have now? Just because they shouted a slogan? The slogan of "Pea Sandwich Ruling the World" had been shouted for 50,000 years, and it wasn't worth the entire Justice League gathering for a meeting.

Putting a cover over the Earth to block the sunlight sounded scary, but in the eyes of a real scientist like Batman, this was pure pseudoscience.

He didn't know if this group of winged rats knew that the Earth was rotating and revolving. If you want to block the global sunlight, unless you can make a whole spherical cover to wrap the entire Earth, otherwise you have to keep this barrier relatively stationary with the Earth and the Sun; otherwise, how could it always face the Sun?

If you have the ability to make such a large barrier not under the influence of gravity, relatively stationary with the Earth in space, and completely not affecting the tides or geological structure, then why don't you just build a spaceship and fly to a planet without sunlight? Why are you tossing the Earth here?

This is a typical manifestation of the more ignorant, the more daring to think. Why don't you just wrap up the Sun? Wouldn't the entire solar system be your territory then?

So for the vampires' goal, Batman was disdainful. Even if they had magic, the difficulty of realization was too great.

Even if they could really achieve it, if they didn't use more and better methods but used this stupid method, then this Vampire King could basically say goodbye to bicycles.

Although Batman didn't quite understand the Justice League's attitude of facing a great enemy, he still replied to a communication as patiently as possible, mainly to explain his ideas to them.

Now that vampires are expanding everywhere, it's just to make a scene and distract the energy of the superheroes.

Theoretically, ignoring them is the right thing to do, but the Justice League are superheroes after all. They can't sit idly by while various cities are harmed, so splitting troops, even if not the best strategy, must be done.

Although the superheroes were all transferred back to their respective cities to target local vampires, Batman still had confidence that after solving the problems in the Bat-family, he would be able to ferret out the main personnel who were executing that whimsical plan.

That's why he sent such a communication, letting the superheroes follow their hearts. Anyway, he would cover for them.

But unexpectedly, this time the superheroes didn't appreciate his kindness and insisted on calling him over to discuss it together.

Batman felt that it might also be because the vampires' attitude was too tough this time, and the marketing of that so-called Vampire King was too successful, making everyone a bit panicked. It would be fine to appease first and then arrange the plan.

Batman appeased the superheroes as much as possible in the reply. He knew that most superheroes must be anxious to return to their cities. He told them not to have psychological burdens and to be city heroes first, leaving the big picture for him to control. It would definitely be fine.

As a result, he received another reply in less than half an hour.

The content of the communication sent by the Hall of Justice this time stunned Batman. The main content was saying: we called you to come, but you kept delaying. Is it because you have already betrayed us and become a vampire?

Seeing this, Batman was a bit mentally deranged. Is this human language?

Schiller, who saw the content of this communication, laughed out loud.

Indeed, the Bat-family now feels like they are playing Werewolf, but there is a premise for this, which is that they are a family. The relationship between Batman and the Robins is not just colleagues, or superiors and subordinates; they are family.

Batman catching the mole here, the main purpose isn't fear of the mole interfering with work, but worry that the mole will hurt the feelings between them. He hopes to use a gentler means to deal with members who might have been turned into vampires.

Just like Dick, although everyone has discovered that he is abnormal, since Batman hasn't said anything, everyone at most just walks around him, instead of turning against him.

If handled in a stiffer way, normal Robins and vampire Robins would fight. No matter which side gets hurt, this matter can't be ended. Even if Batman really develops a potion to turn vampires back, what about those who were hurt and sacrificed in this war? Can it just be forgotten like this?

Of course not. This is destined to become a scar on the Bat-family. They are hurting their own family members with their own hands. Not to mention those who haven't been turned, even those who are turned into vampires and saved later can't accept their own behavior.

Batman has been slow to take tough action because brothers fighting each other always leads to both sides suffering. Children not getting along is mostly due to the elder being lacking in virtue. In the case of having the ability to mediate, intensifying the conflict is undesirable.

Dick's hurdle is barely considered passed, but according to their own speculation, there is another mole lurking in the Bat-family. The previous conflict between the radical faction and the conservative faction might have been stirred up by this mole.

Batman playing Werewolf here to catch the mole isn't because he doesn't have better solutions, it's purely because of his compassionate father's heart.

But the Justice League is another nature.

First and most importantly, this league is basically all adults. The relationship between them is more like colleagues, not a family.

Batman formed the Bat-family mainly to provide emotional support, mutual understanding, and comfort, but the formation of the Justice League is to maintain Earth's peace, not to draw emotional comfort from anyone.

In this case, playing Werewolf to check for a mole when something happens is a bit brain-dead.
