Chapter 598: Who is the Bat and Who is the Cat (Part 3)

A few minutes ago, Batman cat came out of his Batcave and was on his way to deal with Schiller when he unexpectedly encountered Bane and the group of crazy cats he led from the Crazy Cat Asylum.

Batman cat had always thought that Bane cat had a dependency on the liquid in the tube, so he had equipment that over-infused the liquid in the cell built for Bane cat, stopping the liquid delivery every once in a while to keep Bane in a state of severe withdrawal.

But he didn't expect that Bane had long since kicked this dependency and no longer had such severe withdrawal symptoms.

Therefore, when Batman cat followed his previous plan and focused his attack on the tube on Bane cat's back, causing the liquid to leak, he was ambushed by Bane, who was pretending to be weak, to the point that he had to take out the hovercraft he intended to use against Schiller ahead of schedule and even activated the weapons.

Batman cat weighed it in his heart: should he deal with Schiller first, or deal with Bane and this group of crazy cats first? In the end, he chose the latter, because once this group of crazy cats entered the city, the damage they would bring would be much greater than Schiller's. So, he changed his route to the Crazy Cat Asylum and chased Bane and the others to this place.

What he didn't expect was that he encountered Clark halfway, who directly broke his hover saucer, and he was also dragged here.

Although he was worried about the situation inside the Crazy Cat Asylum, this group of crazy cats had already been brought out by Bane, so the remaining empty Crazy Cat Asylum shouldn't have any big trouble. So, Bane cat decided to deal with this group of cats first, and Schiller could wait.

But what he didn't expect was that after exploring the situation in the city and understanding the existence of Batman cat, Schiller had formulated a multi-point flowering plan.

He first gained Batman cat's trust, and then proposed a suggestion that seemed to have only benefits and no harm, which was to perfect the patrol route of the monitoring robots?

The patrol route Schiller gave was indeed much better than the original one, almost taking into account every dead angle, except for the ones he intentionally left out.

If he left out monitoring dead angles out of thin air, Batman cat would definitely discover it. So, the so-called monitoring dead angles Schiller left out weren't really dead angles. They could only be said to be choosing the lesser of two evils between two targets that needed monitoring at the same time. For example, monitoring high points and places with wide views first, and sewer entrances could be put aside for now.

When Schiller came to this city, he knew that Batman would definitely come to find him, so he designed an entire guidance chain, letting Batman explore places he didn't have time to explore, which was that bank where the murder case occurred.

Using the same monitoring dead angle, Schiller committed a murder case, killed the bank president cat, and timed it perfectly, throwing the corpse at the bank entrance. With the gray fog, doing all this wasn't difficult.

Batman saw the corpse of that bank president cat. Schiller was very clear that Batman, who possessed a detective's heart, wouldn't leave this murder case alone. He would have to come and investigate.

Batman was the king of the night and would only appear from night to dawn. So, the monitoring loophole Schiller arranged happened to be during his peak activity period. Just like this, Batman used the monitoring loophole Schiller arranged, was guided to the bank, and sneaked into the bank's interior.

Meanwhile, Schiller didn't stay in the Crazy Cat Asylum. This was just a prison where Batman cat locked up this group of crazy cats, and there was nothing to investigate. He wanted to investigate the manor where Batman cat once lived.

Without needing confirmation, Schiller was very clear that there must be a Wayne Manor in Gotham City. This was a Gotham landmark building. No matter which world it appeared in, there must be such a place. This was part of Batman's origin story, the nail house of DC comics.

Schiller turned into a gray fog form and began a large-scale search. Although all buildings had been transformed into steel cages by Batman cat, and Batman cat himself no longer lived in the manor, but lived in the Batman cat building or the Batcave, Schiller still found a special building in a place that was once a wealthy area.

This building had also been transformed into metal, just unlike other buildings, which were row houses or apartment buildings, it was the only detached villa.

After entering this kind of villa, there was still very strict monitoring equipment here, even several times more than outside. However, Batman cat had been lured away by Schiller. That group of crazy cats who were released would block him for a while. Even if the monitoring was destroyed, he couldn't come for a while.

Schiller had prepared for all the time differences. While Batman cat was busy fighting with Bane and that group of crazy cats, Schiller destroyed all the monitoring equipment in this manor.

Just as he started to explore, he discovered that all the items in the entire manor had been cleared out, and no furniture was left. This exceeded Schiller's expectations. In his view, even if Batman cat was paranoid, he shouldn't have turned the place where he lived as a child into this.

Schiller came here actually to find the traces of another person, and that was the butler, Alfred.

Through personality analysis of Batman cat, Schiller determined that he had no guidance during his growth process, which was why his paranoia and desire for control grew uncontrollably. Then a problem appeared: where did Alfred go?

You know, even the original Batman, that mature and dark old man, wasn't paranoid to the point of turning the entire Gotham into this.

Or rather, this wasn't paranoia, but a bit stupid. The original Batman wouldn't do such a stupid thing. Although his obsession was heavy, at least his brain was clear, and he definitely knew that doing this couldn't eliminate all crimes.

That is to say, this wasn't just a mature version of Gotham. Something must have happened that changed the life trajectory of this so-called Batman cat. And the biggest change Schiller observed now was that Alfred wasn't by Batman cat's side.

So, he took a big detour, lured Batman cat out, and then came to the former Batman cat manor to investigate.

Finding no clues in the building upstairs, Schiller could only look for the entrance to the cellar. He remembered that there should be a basement in Wayne Manor, but the structure of this manor was different from Wayne Manor, so Schiller searched for a long time before finding the entrance to the basement.

Just as he walked down along the entrance, he heard a little movement. He also possessed a cat's sensitive hearing. As soon as the sound came, Schiller scurried up the stairs he had just come down, and in a flash, ran into the room next to him.

Then he saw two cats walking up from the basement. One was a gray cat with a somewhat old gait, thin figure, and haggard expression, and even its tail was broken. That should be Alfred cat.

More importantly, there was a collar around its neck, which was clearly the monitoring equipment used by Batman cat. At this moment, it had been destroyed and was still sparking.

It looked like Alfred cat should have just been rescued from the basement by another cat. But what made Schiller most puzzled was that the cat who rescued Alfred was walking beside Alfred at this moment.

He was green, and he was laughing at this moment.

Looking east along Batman cat's manor, crossing the central battlefield where Batman cat and Bane were fighting, one arrived at the Gotham Bank located in the far east.

Unlike the Gotham in reality, all the buildings in this Cat City Gotham were not in their original positions. But it wasn't hard to see that this bank in Cat City Gotham probably wasn't a bank originally, but should have been transformed from another building, and still retained a few details from before the transformation.

Observing these details, Batman deduced that this might have been the Gotham Police Station in the past. Lifting the metal wall panels, one could see the bullet holes and scars on the old walls behind.

Batman walked toward the depths of the bank, deducing the rooms that might have clues based on the specifications of the buildings on both sides.

He discovered that all the rooms on the ground had been transformed into bank offices, but there was a very hidden door leading to the underground.

After Batman opened that door, he increased his vigilance and walked down step by step along the stairs. Sure enough, the style of the underground room was completely different from the ground. This place looked like an archive, and still retained some documents that hadn't been destroyed. Batman walked to the table, jumped onto the chair, and looked at the words on those documents.

Of course, the cats in Gotham had words, otherwise they couldn't have developed such a civilization. But the problem was, Batman couldn't understand their words.

But it didn't matter. The number of documents here was still very large. Combined with the words on the signs Batman had seen before, he could completely decipher a part of the content directly.

Under the cold light, Batman's fur was reflected into blue by the light. He stared intently at those words. In his blue eyes, there was a different kind of light.

Meanwhile, the battle in the center of Gotham was in full swing, or rather, Batman cat was being pressed and beaten by Clark.

(Author's note: Control Guard Here)

No matter which world's Batman, the combat power of an encounter battle was very weak. What's more, the opponent Batman cat encountered was Superman cat.

It was unnecessary to say anything about how feline combat was different from human combat. The point of Superman cat was Superman, not the cat. He possessed all of Superman's abilities. Except for having to limit his output and the weakness of fearing the dream would collapse, he was almost invincible.

Clark also didn't want to learn the cat's attack method at all. Just by floating in the air and using the rays fired from his eyes, he could force Batman cat to scurry all over the ground. Even if he didn't extend his claws to scratch people, one punch was enough to make Batman cat fly very far.

Finally, Batman cat, who was being beaten, couldn't bear it anymore. He activated a controller next to his neck. Instantly, a "rumbling" loud noise came from the ground. The walls and foundations of countless buildings began to change and combined into a giant machine monster.

Even if it were a normal-sized person, compared to this giant defensive machine cat, they would appear a bit small, let alone a few ordinary cats.

During the process of the machine being assembled, they scattered and fled. Clark also had to increase his altitude, observing the situation on the battlefield.

Batman cat controlled the wings and flew to the top of that giant machine cat's head. Clark's expression also became a bit grave. Under the condition of limiting output, dealing with such a big guy wasn't an easy task. He shouted to the bottom: "Coordinate with me! Attack its legs!"

A round moon hung on the horizon. The terrifying machine monster jumped onto the roof. The shadows of the few cats appeared incomparably small compared to it. All the cats knew that a bitter battle was about to come.

But just at this moment, a cat's shadow flew across the round moon. That streamlined limb told of the unique beauty of feline animals.

It landed on the shoulder of that giant robot, and then scurried to the top in two or three moves. The top of this giant robot's head looked like a small square for a cat.

Two identical blue-eyed black cats stood opposite each other on the top of the giant robot's head under the moonlight.

"Who are you? Why are you here?!" Batman cat retreated a step cautiously, looking at the cat that was identical to himself. Suddenly, as if he suddenly remembered, he said: "You are the rat that sneaked into the sewer before?!"

"You are the rat." Batman walked forward two steps. He wasn't scolding Batman cat back, but stating a fact. He moved his nose slightly, feeling a familiar scent. This didn't exceed his expectation. He said: "You are the same as that cat who died at the bank entrance. You are all rats."

"What are you talking about?" Batman cat couldn't help but retreat another step. The pressure this cat opposite him brought was too great, as if there was an endless black tide attacking him.

"I will become a bat because the bat represents the fear in my heart."

"And you, you will become a bat, just because someone hopes that what rules Gotham is a rat with wings, not a cat with sharp teeth and claws."

"Because, they are afraid of cats."

Just at this moment, a burst of crazy laughter came from afar. A green cat jumped onto the robot's head.

Just at the moment Batman cat was attracted by Joker cat, under the moonlight, a black shadow, like a sharp arrow, shot out instantly.

Batman jumped up. His figure blocked the moonlight. The shadow cast fell on the roof of the building, shaped like a bat passing through the night sky.

Just when all the cats thought Batman was attacking that green Joker cat, Batman, who had pounced out, bit Batman cat's neck.

A strange scream that made one's heart ache sounded, like the cry of a night owl in a dark forest.

Against the background of a round moon, several feathers flew into the air, rotated a few times in the dark night, and then slowly drifted to the ground.

The green cat extended his nose, leaned close to that feather, and revealed a disgusted expression, saying:

"Ha, still that disgusting smell of bird droppings." ===== CHAPTER 599 =====
