"Religion begins with faith, and science begins with doubt." Feng Bujue's speech continued, "That masked psychopath uses religious means to enslave you, but what he relies on… is science." He waved his arm, the submachine gun in his left hand pointed at Dr. Clipper beside him, "Doctor, could you come over here for a moment?"

"My pleasure." Dr. Clipper shrugged and responded. He stubbed out his cigarette and slowly walked to Feng Bujue's side, appearing in the camera's view.

"Let me introduce to you…" Feng Bujue gave two strange laughs, "Heh heh… this is the most important subordinate of the King of Gotham, the magician who allows the_Bruce to remain eternally young—Dr. Clipper."

Dr. Clipper didn't speak, just calmly looking into the camera lens. To the civilians, this old, bald man with strange glasses was basically a stranger. Although he sometimes appeared behind the_Bruce alongside Gordon, he had never publicly uttered a word.

"Your god is already 91 years old this year. He became the_Bruce at the age of sixty…" Feng Bujue continued, "And this Dr. Clipper is even older than the_Bruce." As someone who had read the original script of the comic, Jue-ge was naturally clear about this information, "It is he who, with his superb scientific attainments, created a god. Over the years, Dr. Clipper has been constantly replacing that bat bastard's blood, skin, and when necessary… even entire organs."

"You know much more than I imagined…" Dr. Clipper finally couldn't help but speak.

Hearing this, Feng Bujue turned his狰狞 (zhengning - hideous) face, smiled at the doctor, but didn't respond.

"Every year, this Dr. Clipper makes four or five sacrificial offerings in advance in the laboratory, so that they can be thrown into this ritual of slaughter." Jue-ge quickly turned his head and said to the live broadcast, "Look at my face…" He pointed the muzzle of his gun at his face, "The production process is actually not complicated… First, burn my skin, then bleach it a little, then use a laser scalpel to cut out a grinning smile, hehe… haha…" He laughed maniacally for a while, "Of course, the most important step is to push a chip along my nose into my brain. That chip contains the memories that the Joker needs to know, and will distort my personality, making my words and deeds like those of a complete madman."

Jue-ge paused, and then said, "The super criminals you've seen in the past… Two-Face, Ra's al Ghul, the Riddler, the Penguin, the Scarecrow… they were all made using similar technology." His voice gradually rose, "The Bat is playing with you, he spreads false fear, and makes you submit to his power. Gotham is sick… you are also sick… terminally ill!"

"Little Pudding…" Ruo Yu still used that reluctant tone to address Jue-ge, "Pay attention to the time."

Her reminder was for a reason. At this moment, the_Bruce and the Robin squad had completely given up chasing "Two-Face" and "Poison Ivy" and were rushing towards the Bat-Castle. In their players' own communication channel, Xiao Ling and Xiao Tan had already shouted this twice.

"Don't worry, dear." Jue-ge turned his head and responded. He seemed quite willing to say this line, looking like he had gained an advantage.

"Citizens of Gotham!" Feng Bujue then faced the camera again, using the most inflammatory posture he could show, "Tonight, I, and my companions, will give you a chance, a real chance…" He paused for a second, "Do you want to be gods? Do you want to replace the_Bruce? Hahaha…" Another burst of laughter, "Let me set a new rule… From now on, I, Harley Quinn, Two-Face, and Poison Ivy will stand on your side, weaken the Bat's military power as much as possible, and strive for a relatively fair competitive environment for you, hehe… and you, you only need to kill that liar the_Bruce, and you can replace him…" He added with a grim smile, "…you can use any means you want."

Silence descended on Gotham.

At this moment, the originally noisy streets became incomparably quiet.

And this silence did not last long, a restless atmosphere spread from the crowd. Even the most steadfast Bat believers were shaken at this time.

"Hahaha… hahahaha… hahahahaha…" Feng Bujue ended his speech with the Joker's signature manic laughter. He freed two fingers, hooked the headset off his head and threw it aside, and turned and left the camera's view.

"Doctor, you have to come with us." Ruo Yu turned the muzzle of her gun and pointed it at Clipper at this time.

"Heh… I guessed this would happen." Clipper smiled, "You don't have to point a gun at me, I can go with you. But… I can't guarantee we'll leave this place alive." He gestured with his eyes towards the only exit of the room, "I bet that at this moment, behind that door, a large group of heavily armed guards has gathered… Ah…"

Before he could finish speaking, Jue-ge grabbed him with one hand and carried him on his shoulder.

On the other side, Ruo Yu put away her dual guns, took out Feng Sheng, and suddenly struck the wall on one side of the command center…

First step, vertical sword lift; second step, horizontal sword left slash; third step, twisting sword downward chop; fourth step, waving blade right fold.

After four steps, the thick wall of the Bat-Castle was actually chopped open with four cracks by the sword energy, presenting a fairly neat tic-tac-toe shape.

Ruo Yu retracted her sword, directly stepped forward and followed with a side kick, smashing the rectangular wall in the center of the sword marks to pieces.

"Good job! Dear." Feng Bujue laughed. While speaking, he carried Dr. Clipper on his shoulder and leapt out of the exit in one stride.

Ruo Yu sighed with a helpless look, but she still quickly followed, jumping out of the outer wall of the castle with Jue-ge.

Almost in the same second that Ruo Yu jumped out, the door of the room opened. A large group of armed guards rushed in, loudly shouting "Don't move."

Unfortunately, they were one step late…

"He… they jumped out from there!" An employee in the room pointed to the hole in the wall and shouted.

"I know." The_Bruce's deep voice rang out. He followed behind the large group of guards. Because the lens on his right eye had a thermal induction function, he had already seen the escape route of Jue-ge and Ruo Yu in the corridor.

"Cut off the video signal." Bruce immediately gave the order calmly.

The employee who survived under Jue-ge's muzzle was stunned for a few seconds after hearing this, and then realized that this was his duty, "Yes, sir!" He quickly responded, scrambling to his feet and returning to the console to stop the live broadcast.

The various large screens in the city suddenly fell into a state of pitch black. This time… they could no longer play the promotional video narrated by Gordon. That kind of religious brainwashing speech was meaningless at this time.

"How long are you going to lie down…" The_Bruce saw that the live broadcast had stopped, walked to Gordon, grabbed his collar, and lifted him up.

Gordon was lifted up and instantly woke up, and in a panic, the grenade in his hand accidentally slipped out.

Clatter—

The_Bruce instantly grabbed the grenade firmly: "Have you slept enough?"

"Wh… what?" Gordon was still a little dazed.

"Huff…" The_Bruce breathed out, released the other party, and directly ordered, "Gather all troops and prepare to suppress the rioters in the city."

"Uh…" Gordon was stunned for a second, "Yes!" He answered almost instinctively, until the word "yes" came out, he regained his senses, bent down to pick up the headset on the ground, and then turned on the communication channel and shouted, "Attention all units, the highest emergency plan is now activated! All Robin squads in Gotham, immediately gather at the Bat-Castle! This is not a drill, repeat… this is not a drill!"
