In fact, Bain had considered many scenarios.
Strangely enough, once Bane put on the Batman costume, he couldn't help but keep thinking about making plans.
Plan A, Plan B, the more plans you have, the more secure you feel.
He even considered what would happen if the government or Batman got involved. Although he thought the probability of such a thing happening was very small, he still made preparations.
Bain viewed this as an imitation of his arch-rival.
But for now, this imitation is benign and helpful, so Bain doesn't see anything wrong with it.
In fact, he didn't really emulate Batman. He even intentionally gave up on some seemingly outrageous possibilities because the probability of these things happening was so small that there was no need to make plans for them.
For example, an alien spaceship falls from the sky, and a dog crawls out of it. This dog has a superhuman body of steel, can also shoot heat vision from its eyes, and jumps around everywhere launching dog attacks at him.
Haha, that's ridiculous.
Even Batman, let alone Bane, wouldn't make any plans for this situation...
Right?
"Awoooo ...
Dr. Randolph was screaming in agony.
What jumped out of that Kryptonian spaceship wasn't the baby or teenager he expected, but a...
dog.
It is entirely white and resembles a white German Shepherd, the only difference being that it has a gold "S" on its collar and an "S"-shaped logo on its cape.
And this animal clearly did not appear weak.
It had just poked its head out of the spaceship when it viciously bit the stunned Dr. Randolph on the leg.
"Ah, my leg! God! It's broken! It's going to break! You beast!!! Let me go!!!"
He yelled at the dazed-looking Venom-enhanced human next to him, "Hurry up and help me pull him down!"
"what?"
The Venom-enhanced human, whose face was still smeared with the blood of the soldiers he had just killed, stared blankly at Dr. Randolph, revealing a wise look in his eyes, and then chuckled foolishly twice.
"What did you say?"
Dr. Randolph had to grit his teeth and run over to press the button on its back. More venom poured in, and his subordinate's intelligence finally returned.
Watching Dr. Randolph being pulled like a tug-of-war, Bain took a deep breath. He had been quietly observing the situation from beginning to end.
In short, all of this was a completely unexpected situation, not something he hadn't anticipated due to his low intelligence...
Well, Bain is starting to regret it.
I should have brought a frisbee or a skeleton or something.
Hmm? But he can make it on the spot now.
Taking advantage of the chaos at the scene, Bain hurriedly crawled out of the soil, first retracting the messy plants that had grown on his body back into his body, and then began to stretch out his palm towards the ground in front of him.
Just do it.
For the Red of All Beings, blood vessels and bones are all part of life, while rotting flesh is the realm of the Black of Decay. In the original comics, when Animal Man's daughter, the Queen of Life, Michael Sheen, first awakened, she created a whole bunch of little bone monsters to play with her.
Therefore, creating a smaller version of Mr. Skeleton wouldn't be a big problem for Bane at this point.
He then used the power of the Green of All Things to try to make a flying disc out of wood on the ground.
That's right, the plan.
Bane secretly controlled the zombie Black to use telekinesis to break through the soil underground, directly approaching the spaceship.
The thrown skeleton and frisbee were merely a facade; Blake's mind control abilities were the real game-changer, a mere distraction tactic.
The plan actually had another layer of complexity; he deliberately had Blake try to get close to the dog, concealing the information that "Blake's ability can attack from a distance."
If the dog, also possessing superhuman X-ray vision, discovers Bane and abandons all apparent temptations, choosing to attack him directly, then when it rushes towards him, it will inevitably turn its back to the zombie Bane, leaving him wide open.
Then he'll get a taste of the fatal blow from Blake's back.
Yes, that's perfect. Batman always has a backup plan.
Bain's thoughts suddenly paused.
Ok.
He meant that Batman has a backup plan, and so does Bane.
Bane's expression beneath the Batman mask remained perfectly calm.
As long as the plan is followed...
"Quickly prepare to activate the Red Sun weapon, take out the Kryptonite, and aim it at this beast... It's different from the Kryptonians; it adapted to the Yellow Sun's energy as soon as it arrived on Earth!"
"Our calculations are wrong, we must..."
"Wait, he's suffering a backlash... The countless noises from Earth are interfering with him, we can..."
"What the hell?! Batman!"
Dr. Randolph's voice, which had been directing his men, suddenly stopped, and Bain froze.
He didn't expect the other party to get away from the dog's attack so quickly... Oh, it wasn't that he got away successfully, but that the dog let go on its own?
Bain stared at the dog. It seemed to be disturbed by some loud noise, curled up on the ground in pain.
The venom-enhanced humans swarmed forward, beating the dog like drums, as if gently tickling its heavy itch.
Bain stopped in his tracks, realizing that his primary enemy was now Dr. Randolph.
"How did you end up here?"
The other person seemed very surprised: "I confirmed several times that you're dealing with those man-eating sea monsters right now!"
He looked around at himself.
"Where's your Robin?"
Bain remained silent. This was not because he was trying to be profound, but because he was trying to adjust his voice.
In the prison where he was born, Dr. Randolph conducted Titan Venom experiments on him, and they spent countless days and nights together.
Bane knew very well that if he opened his mouth, the other person would recognize his voice, so he had to imitate Batman's strange, phlegm-like voice.
"You deliberately spread false information to mislead me?"
"Is the intelligence false?"
"How did you manage to do that?"
"Heh, because I'm Batman," Bane, dressed in his Batman suit, told him.
Bane tried to think about what Batman would say in this situation.
"And Batman knows everything!"
boom!
One of the Venom-enhanced humans next to Dr. Randolph slammed his fist into the ground, and then five or six other enhanced humans rushed forward, opening their sharp claws like those of ferocious beasts, and in just three or four seconds they dug a large hole in the ground.
Inside the pit was Blake, a zombie with purple hair, looking completely dazed.
Zombie Blake roared.
The Venom-enhanced human replied, "Roar?"
Dr. Randolph quickly pressed down on the Venom-enhanced man's back.
Bain remained silent.
The Venom-enhanced human, whose intelligence had been restored by Dr. Randolph, was busy pressing the Venom injection button for his other companions. In the meantime, Dr. Randolph raised his hand, revealing a small radar display.
"To prevent the military from using their superhumans to sneak up on me and behead me, I specifically prepared radar to ensure there were no enemy units around me. How did you get close to me?"
Bain remained silent.
He had infiltrated the area beforehand and disguised himself as a plant. It's likely that the initial scan mistook him for part of the vegetation. His few brief movements were also very small, which is why he wasn't detected.
And the zombie Blake, having just obeyed his orders, had simply burrowed underground right under Dr. Randolph's nose, digging towards him. It was so obvious, it would be strange if he hadn't been discovered.
Actually, he originally wanted to lure the dog...
Forget it, there's no point in thinking about this.
"Fine, I won't bother asking how you got close to me. What's this, Batman?"
He heard Dr. Randolph ask him that question.
Bain did not want to reveal his true identity, and the most important reason was...
What he was doing at that moment didn't seem like something Bain would do.
So he said, "I am Batman."
"I know you're Batman. I'm asking you, what exactly is this bald, punk freak under your command?"
"He is my Robin."
"?"
Dr. Randolph had already confirmed that the Batman opposite him was an imposter when he saw the zombie Black, and when he heard Bane's words, he felt as if his intelligence had been insulted.
"This is Robin?" He almost laughed in anger, his face contorted with rage. "Do you think I'm an idiot?"
He pointed at the bald Blake: "This guy doesn't resemble him at all..."
But he stopped talking.
Because in the blink of an eye, the bald Blake had already put on a Robin uniform.
As Bain held his hands behind his back, handfuls of leaves slowly disappeared.
Clothing is made of plant fibers. Just as Poison Ivy can turn a dead piece of wood back into a tree, Bane can also transform dead plant fibers into a different form.
Most of the pigments were also plant-based, and in desperation, Bain unleashed his potential; he could hardly believe he had actually done it.
Dr. Randolph opened his mouth, at this moment he too was starting to have some doubts about Bain.
Normal people's clothes don't usually change in such a short time, right?
Did he just see things wrong?
But Randolph quickly dismissed this idiotic idea himself.
He couldn't help but fly into a rage: "You bastard!"
Bane raised his fist. He knew another battle was about to break out. He didn't intend to let Black get involved. The information that Black possessed telekinesis needed to be kept hidden until he could use it against that dog. So he had to defeat him alone...
"Grab him!"
He saw Dr. Randolph point angrily at his face, and then a large group of Venom-enhanced humans pounced on him, and then...
It was sliced into pieces in mid-air by streaks of heat vision.
"Woof!"
Then Bain heard a dog bark.
The dog regained its vitality. It seemed to have adapted to the noisy environment. It broke free from the muscular monsters that had been pressing down on it with brute force. Countless heat rays shot out uncontrollably from its eyes. It covered its face with its paws, but this only made the heat rays, which were originally focused into lines, become like random, scattered bullets.
He barked loudly, then soared into the sky.
"No!"
Dr. Randolph immediately tossed Bain aside.
He wailed and chased after the white dog that had flown into the sky, crying as if his mother had died:
"No, darling, no!!! Don't leave me!!! How can I live without you!!! You are the treasure of my life!!!"
But the dog didn't respond at all. Randolph collapsed to his knees, utterly exhausted: "No! Come back! Come back!"
Then Bane saw him staring at him with hatred: "It's all your fault, Batman!"
"If you hadn't interfered, I would have already activated the Red Sun weapon and the kryptonite, and obtained my treasure!"
Bain's face was grim. This kind of hatred was extremely dangerous; he had to strike first...
Wait, he hates Batman, what does that have to do with Bane?
Bain suddenly came to his senses.
But it doesn't matter anyway.
Anyway, now that Superdog has run away, his current target is Dr. Randolph. Given that Dr. Randolph is selling Venom and making the low-level Bane commonplace, they are bound to have a showdown.
The two faced off from a distance.
But Bain soon realized something was wrong.
"Wait a minute."
He waved to stop Dr. Randolph, who was still trying to control the Venom-enhanced humans to attack, and raised his head with a serious expression.
Something's not right.
"At this point, do you still want to stall for time? What do you think...?"
Have you ever heard of an attack that falls from the sky?
Dr. Randolph also looked up.
The firelight reflected in his pupils was like a falling meteor, like the sun setting, or like late-blooming cherry blossoms in April falling into the grayish-yellow soil after the rain—an indescribable poetic and picturesque scene.
"Fuck," Bain said.
Boom—
The deafening explosion shook the heavens and the earth. Dr. Randolph felt as if he were flying, like a petal drifting into the sky on a gentle breeze. The dazzling spot of light was so beautiful.
"How could I! How could I! To suffer such a crushing defeat here!"
Countless metal fragments mixed with wood swept out from behind Bane like a storm, along with countless bones, flesh, and rotting flesh, all coalescing into a fist that swung towards the massive shockwave.
Under the terrifying pressure, Bane unleashed his strongest attack!
"what!"
A surge of telekinetic energy, like a green wave, erupted from the zombie Black, tearing his Robin uniform to shreds.
The green telekinetic shockwave, carrying Bane's fist, struck head-on at the dog that had fallen from the sky—
"Block it for me... Aa ...
Boo!
The ground trembled like waves before returning to calm.
Bain lay gracefully in the huge pit, his body oozing blood, and countless bones were broken.
"I'm going to call Batman."
He said.
