The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman

Chapter 273 The Fearful Laughing Demon (Part 1)

In DC comics, there are many origins of the character of the clown. At first, when the clown hadn’t become popular, he was just an ordinary acrobat, that is, a clown in the true sense.

Later, there was a version of falling into the chemical pool, of course, the most famous is the clown of the deadly joke, who will turn into a clown-like madman as long as he has a bad day.

The more controversial one is the setting of three clowns in one universe. In this setting, the clown is no longer the only character, and the three clowns start killing each other.

Putting aside those attractive gimmicks, it is possible to have multiple clowns in a universe. After all, the most indispensable thing in Gotham is lunatics, and some of them just happen to be crazy, imagining themselves as a crazy clown, Nor is it impossible.

On the first night when Schiller came to Gotham, he determined that there should indeed be multiple clowns in this universe, because on this night, his personality that controlled the body underwent a certain degree of mutation.

At the beginning, this mutation was not obvious, but until Bruce appeared in front of him and looked at him, Schiller became one of the selected clowns, and therefore, Bruce was interested in him, and he also Interested in Bruce, the inevitable mutual attraction between Batman and the Joker.

Schiller quickly noticed this mutation, and his superego created another personality to replace the clown Schiller, and threw the clown Schiller into the lower layers of his thinking palace, allowing him to climb up layer by layer. , in order to suppress the danger that this crazy personality may cause.

The evolution of the clown is irreversible, so this personality eventually became one of the many clowns, but because he was trapped in Schiller's thinking palace and has not yet climbed up, he is not harmful for the time being, but he does Also a clown.

When it comes to the clown, another controversial character has to be mentioned, that is the Laughing Bat.

When this character first appeared on the stage, his origin story was very interesting, that is, the clown in a certain universe had amazing fighting power. He not only killed Catwoman, Gordon and other people who were very important to Batman, but also captured the entire Batman. All the parents of the only child in the city repeated the tragedy that happened in Crime Alley again and again in front of Batman.

This inhumane behavior finally drove Batman into madness. He broke the clown's neck with his own hands, but at the same time, the laughing virus in the clown's heart infected Batman.

In other words, the Bat Laughing is actually a combination of the Joker and Batman. The story ends here, and it can be called a rather creative plot, because many DC audiences have thought about it, if the Joker and Batman Together, what will happen?

But later, this setting began to go further and further away. In order to reflect how powerful the combination of Batman and the Joker is, the screenwriter began to add many settings to the Laughing Bat that could elevate him.

Among them, one of the settings that most destroys the story and the style of DC comics is that the bat who laughs is exhaustive.

In fact, whether it is Batman or the clown, their intelligence settings are quite high, especially Batman, as a planning madman, he has a backup plan against almost everyone, and the implementation of the clown's crazy jokes one after another, It also shows that he has wisdom and executive ability beyond ordinary people.

In order to show the effect that one plus one is greater than two, the screenwriter made the Laughing Bat almost omniscient and omnipotent. Unfortunately, the plot to show this ability can be called far-fetched, and the plot of the Laughing Bat's wits can basically be summarized Because, the bat laughing wildly expected something the other party did, the bat laughing wildly expected something he did, the bat laughing wildly expected the other party expected something he expected the other party to do...

All in all, I predicted your prediction, I predicted your prediction, I predicted your prediction, and I predicted your prediction, and then performed infinite dolls.

Therefore, here, I have to solemnly introduce to you——

The crazy destroyer of DC's combat power restraint system, the super dragon Aotian in the setting of American comics, his intelligence and combat power are amazing, but he never forgets his original goal and his simple wisdom God, always one step ahead and almost never misses. It is the great sage prophet who is not doing business, the soul mate of Zhuge Kongming, the best friend of Edogawa Conan, and the only designated father of the DC editorial department-the bat of laughter, Wei Yixiao!

Some people used to jokingly say that Master Bat is the real father of the DC editorial department, but now, Wei Yixiao's settings let people know that the editorial department is probably just Robin adopted by Batman, and the real father has just appeared on the stage.

You can’t say that the character setting of the Laughing Bat is not good, because its origin story is indeed very interesting, satisfying many fans’ fantasies about the relationship between Batman and the Joker, but as more and more settings are added, the plot becomes more and more complicated. The more outrageous it is, the character of the Laughing Bat gradually deviates from the most attractive style of DC comics, the calm and black humor, and turns to the cool line.

Therefore, Schiller doesn't have a good impression of this role. If he had to choose among Batman, the Joker and the Laughing Bat, Schiller would rather be surrounded by ten pairs of clowns and Batman than run into a Laughing Bat. Bat, not because of his out-of-spec strength and intelligence, but because he's really boring.

Schiller is very clear that once this kind of character with editorial father attributes appears in this universe, his peaceful life will be completely over. Although his current life is not very peaceful, but the people around him At least they're pretty interesting characters.

Cobblepot's inferiority complex and conceit are like twin vines, the causes and subsequent development of Evans' two personalities, the emotional entanglement between Alberto and the godfather, Victor's unswerving love until death, etc., even if it is Jack the Clown, who has no source and no backstory at all, also used a stage performance to tell Schiller that he was interesting enough.

The Laughing Bat may be very strong, but he is really boring, because everything about him is dark for the sake of darkness, and there is no mention of any psychological struggle, black and white opposition, human standpoint and emotional changes. A piece of paper that can circle the earth for thousands of kilometers may be very long, or it may be called a miracle, but it is still very thin.

If the villains around Schiller can add a little fun to his peaceful life, then the Laughing Bat is purely disgusting.

Not long after Schiller came to Gotham, he determined that this universe should be a member of the light multiverse, because the people here have the possibility to change positively, while the dark multiverse is just the opposite. They will all fall into the abyss.

Therefore, at the beginning, Schiller did not consider the possibility of the birth of the Laughing Bat, because the conditions for his birth were not met here. In addition to the fact that the universe here is biased towards the light, the current timeline is too early. Batman They had just finished their freshman year, and the clown had only been on stage for a few days. The two of them had only done one trick, and the victim still deserved the owl court, and it didn't even affect too many onlookers.

Batman has not become the wise and suspicious old man he was later, and the clown has not exerted his genius to create all kinds of troubles for Batman. The two of them are far from life and death enemies. the point.

Maybe it was Schiller's arrival that added more order to the city, or maybe it was the young Batman who should have been matched with a young clown. A decent murderous clown is unlikely to appear, so the Batman who killed the clown after being tortured insane is also unlikely to appear.

This is Schiller's inference. Even if the clown really appeared later, he did not shake his judgment. He believes that there is no soil in this universe that the Laughing Bat can produce.

But when Jack approached Schiller and told him that there might be a dangerous thing hidden in Batman, Schiller was still shaken.

The most crucial point is that if there is even a slight possibility that the thing Jack mentioned is the Laughing Bat, then who would dare to bet that he is not?

When Jack said that he felt that something was hatching in Batman's heart, Schiller's vigilance was pulled to the highest level. In any case, the Laughing Bat must not appear in this universe.

When Schiller doubted the Sandman because of his own situation, he had the urge to start a new topic, that is, how to use dreams to reach the depths of people's hearts.

This subject is not only to study how to find the Sandman, but also to dig out the possible danger that Jack said.

After obtaining clues about the immortality factor and successfully producing crazy wine, the clown and Schiller knew that it was time for them to act.

At that time, Schiller and Mrs. Miller said that the clown made an appointment on his personal phone, in fact, because they needed to confirm the next plan on the phone.

Everyone knows what happened afterwards. Schiller, who was drinking with the clown in the consultation room, deliberately asked the elevator attendant to release the clown Schiller who was still climbing the stairs, and had the first contact with the clown Jack. Although the clown Schiller His first reaction was to trick Jack into the room of Schiller's thinking palace and put him in prison for him, but after failing, he also determined that this would be a good partner for cooperation.

The next step is to put other people into your own thinking space, and then drag Hugo in to test the stability of the whole process, and finally dig down as planned to find the Sandman.

There is another more important reason for the clown to enter the kingdom of dreams, and that is to allow the clown to enter Batman's dream through the passage from the kingdom of dreams.

And digging down from Batman's dream, just as Jack expected, on the edge of Batman's dream, in Bruce's body, there is indeed a monster that no one has ever seen.
