Chapter 121 Brainiac: His First Maniacal Laughter
"Lex Luthor, now is not the best time to deal with Brainiac."
Chen Tao's face darkened. He looked at Luther's confident demeanor and didn't know what to say.
So, your so-called trump card is the "Great Law of Humanity"?
What are you so proud of?
"If you're so eager to die, maybe I should just smash your bald head with a hammer and do this favor for you myself."
Chen Tao said:
"You've forced me to use some of my trump cards prematurely to save you, Luther, to prevent Brainiac from draining all the wisdom and creativity from your brain and becoming even stronger. Why did you put yourself in this predicament? What happened to your superhuman intellect? You're threatening my life."
"My brain tells me that pushing you directly is the simplest and quickest way."
Although the robot possessed by Luther was still lying in mid-air like a corpse, Chen Tao could already fully imagine the other party's nonchalant face.
"Of course I'll choose the most convenient and quickest method."
"You idiot," Chen Tao said to Luther, his voice muffled by the nanobots on the Brainiac spaceship, yet possessing a kind of alien technological beauty.
"You know very well that we can't defeat Bladiak so easily with our current methods. Revealing my trump card to Bladiak prematurely will only reduce our chances of success in the final moments."
"And once Lex Luthor understands Brainiac's knowledge, the success rate will increase significantly. It's a sure-fire deal, Bat."
Brainiac stood to the side, watching the two of them chatting as if no one else was around:
"Enough! You two."
The last few metal tentacles were pulled off the connection points on his head, and Brainiac's face darkened.
"If you want to chat, you'll have plenty of time in the rest of your lives."
He paused.
"But could you please stop both of you from frantically downloading my data while we're chatting?"
Oops, we've been discovered.
Chen Tao coughed softly, feeling as if Brainiac had cut off his data download in an instant.
Lex Luthor suddenly groaned, and the robot head he was possessing exploded with sparks and then emitted wisps of black smoke.
"Lex, who gave you the audacity to try and use my knowledge against me after you've just learned it?"
Brainiac reached out and grabbed, and several parasitic demons flew out from the shrunken Black Zero, howling and roaring as they collapsed at Brainiac's feet.
Then the green alien moved his finger, and the heads of the parasites immediately exploded. Strands of pale blue nanobots flew out from their shattered skulls, were caught in Brainiac's palm, and then vanished without a trace.
They were destroyed at the atomic level.
"At first, I thought it was somewhat creative of you to put nanobots into the brains of these parasitic monsters, and I was planning to play with you about it later. But you actually used my technology to recode these robots right in front of me?"
Brainiac brushed the crumbs off his hand: "You've gone a bit too far, Lex."
Chen Tao knew that Luther wasn't unaware that Brainiac would discover what he had done, but he did it anyway and allowed the nanobots to be discovered.
It must have been after reading Brainiac's knowledge that he realized his nanobots couldn't possibly hide from the other party, right?
Rather than being called out by Brainiac, it's better to take matters into your own hands and use the stolen technology to make a huge modification, disgusting the original creators with plagiarism.
Brainiac seemed genuinely disgusted.
A murderous glint appeared on his face: "Alright, enough of this pointless nonsense—"
Chen Tao sighed.
He said to Brainiac, "Stop, the last sentence, I promise, just the last sentence."
Brainiac, as expected, stopped.
Chen Tao turned his head and looked at Luther.
"Even if I hadn't come, you had a backup plan to get out of this, right?"
"This question is pointless, Bat." Then he heard Luther say:
"Now that you're here, even if you don't make a move, Brainiac will find out how you bypassed him and got here. Since you've already revealed part of your hand, isn't the best course of action to take this opportunity to cause him some damage?"
Chen Tao sighed heavily. Although his body was currently composed of nanobots from the Brainiac spaceship and he didn't need to breathe, he was still alive.
Chen Tao knew Lex was right. He turned around to face Brainiac.
Brainiac stared at him coldly.
Chen Tao sighed again.
Then, in the next second, his nanobody began to collapse, gradually losing its ability to maintain its shape.
"How...how could this be?"
Chen Tao immediately began to act in disbelief.
Even though he hadn't used performance-related skills for a long time, his skills didn't decline at all once he started practicing.
"You actually hacked into me?"
"Foolish fellow, you're just like Lex Luthor, blinded by greed."
Brainiac said, "You're only concerned with downloading my data, without ever considering why I allowed you to connect with me."
He looked at Luther, who was sprawled there, and Batman, who was equally unable to resist: "That's it? All the so-called humans on Earth have fallen for the exact same weakness. Your intelligence is so low that it leaves me speechless. I even wonder if I've been too optimistic about you."
He floated down to Chen Tao, who was slumped on the ground: "However, there are still some things worth noting."
He said:
"How exactly are you manipulating my nanobots? This doesn't make sense; my technology should far surpass yours."
Brainiac has every right to be contemptuous. As an artificial intelligence, the scientist who created Brainiac not only created a level 12 intelligence, but also artificial jealousy, greed, and hatred, and of course, artificial contempt. He is almost the most intelligent being in the universe.
"Even if you utilize Kryptonian technology, it's impossible. Although my spaceship incorporates many Kryptonian technological structures, a structure is still a structure. Structures don't recognize their owners, nor do they have any permissions. These inanimate objects cannot possibly assist your intrusion."
Just like the father of computers, who created the computer, he may be able to give background commands to his computer, but what if that computer has been transformed into a luxury car?
"—Unless you are the master of some metal, the king of all electronic components, and can hack into me simply by mastering the structure of Kryptonian technology..."
Brainiac thought this through, and then within 10 to the power of -57 seconds, he rejected the possibility himself.
What a joke! If such power truly existed, then only he could wield it.
"So let me see what's going on in your head and how you managed to do all this."
He manipulated a metal tentacle to connect with the gradually dehumanizing Batman.
It's no use. Even if I deliberately collapse my own body, it won't stop me.
So Brainiac took some control of the nanobots he had regained, keeping them in their most basic human form.
He then attached the metal tentacles to his head:
"Let me see what secrets you have."
This is different from Lex stealing his data before; now he's actively trying to enter someone else's mind.
If he wants to get something without bursting other people's brains, he must act with caution.
Then, at this moment, something happened that caught Brainiac completely off guard:
That Batman made of nanobots—
he.
Laughed.
This was not a normal human smile at all. His mouth stretched from his chin to his ears, and the black nanobots on Batman's face suddenly turned white, while those on his mouth turned red. Chen Tao let out a distorted and twisted laugh.
"Hahaha, hahaha! Hahahaha!"
On Earth, Clark saw a clown's head emerge from the front of the Batmobile that was stuck upside down.
Clark: ! I'm scared.
Syncing now: The Clown.
"What the hell is this thing?!"
Brainiac clutched the metal wire connecting his two heads, feeling as if his mind had stumbled into a huge, bouncing, chaotic circus.
Eeya~
The adorable little green gourd, instead of finding the magical conch shell he wanted, accidentally fell into the circus's knife-throwing wheel. The smiling clown picked up two daggers and happily threw them at him!
No, little pumpkin! I'm not a pumpkin! I'm a little frog!
The green alien Brainiac crouched on the ground, his mouth crooked and eyes slanted, exuding an intelligence level of 12, hopping around like a giant toad:
"I'm the little traveling frog, and I'm home today! Ribbit, ribbit!"
Then, in the next second, he immediately stood up.
Brainiac's face darkened as he began to forcefully pull himself out of his thoughts.
He had never! Never! ever witnessed such a chaotic, illogical, counterintuitive, and inanimate inner world!
This is not the kind of thinking or ideology that life can have!
I can't go on...
Then, in the next second, his consciousness fell into chaos again.
But Mr. Smiling Clown wants to play with Mr. Frog!!!
Because we must use cement to mix pasta, and according to the Pythagorean theorem, we can deduce that the 45-degree cross-section of Nightwing's rear end is radioactive, the primary function of Red Robin's family is for sacrifice, and using artificially bred Red Hoods can capture wild crowbars—
So regardless of whether Batman's nth power contains parents, or whether the soup made from Mr. Skeleton's bones contains sediment, it doesn't change the fact that Batman is the Joker!
I understand now!!! I've grasped it!!!
Brainiac felt a surge of joy, and he burst into wild laughter: "Batman!! Ahh ...
Luther watched in stunned silence.
"I've actually seen Batman live... I had thought he might have a way, but I didn't expect it to be this... amazing."
He shivered.
"That's terrifying."
He watched as the brilliant and intelligent Brainiac went on a rampage like someone with cerebral palsy: "It's terrifying to see him like this!"
"Ah, in principle we believe that Green Lantern comics don't contain the greatest Green Lantern, but that blue bald guy could trigger the Flash's super evolution—come back to life, my dear mother!"
"How did you do that—?"
Brainiac gouged out his own eyeballs, struggling desperately like a moth drawn to a spider's web to break free of the wire connecting them: "Let me go!"
With a hiss of electricity, he finally broke free from Chen Tao's connection. Before Brainiac could react, he heard his spaceship explode violently.
"You...you detonated my arsenal using those Kryptonian technologies...but that doesn't prove the Joker likes Batman!"
Brainiac's speech was somewhat incoherent, a kind of mental pollution he had never seen before. The Joker from a parallel universe gave him a little Gotham shock, and taught Brainiac a lesson.
This chaotic thinking is also why Chen Tao doesn't like to synchronize with him.
Chen Tao deactivated the synchronization with the Clown Man and turned to the bald man possessing the robot.
"Lex Luthor, we should go. You've stolen enough data, haven't you? By the time Brainiac realizes what's happening, we won't be able to leave."
Luther seemed somewhat unwilling.
"Now, are we able to...?"
"Don't even think about it," Chen Tao shook his head. "It was just an initial kill. Those chaotic thoughts can only distract Brainiac; they're not enough to completely control him. It's not enough to destroy his kingdom. We need more real, tangible power."
He said, "Are you still going to run away or not? I'm leaving anyway. I don't want to face Brainiac's wrath after all this.
Then Luther saw Batman simply lie down on the ground, severing his connection with the nanobots.
Luthor, now possessing the robot, wanted to say something, but when he turned his head, he met Brainiac's furious eyes.
"Lex Luthor, it's all your fault!"
Luther: "?"
What does it have to do with me that he's made you like this?
"You actually dared to pull out such a despicable trump card? Do you really think I wouldn't dare to kill you?"
No, Batman did all of this!
Luther immediately tried to disconnect, but Brainiac's immense psychological impact had already arrived.
Clang!
The robot collapsed helplessly to the ground, shattered into pieces by the telekinetic attack, while Luther's consciousness vanished inside Brainiac's spaceship.
……
……
……
"Aaaaaaahhhhhh!" Black, the purple-haired psychic, screamed in agony as blood flowed from all seven orifices.
He sat beneath a massive mechanical computer, tubes attached to his forehead one by one. Luther, who had gotten up from the seat next to him, hurried over and pulled all the tubes off.
The enormous computer groaned and burst into flames with a loud bang. Luther hurriedly grabbed a flamethrower and sprayed a large cloud of white mist at the flames.
Then, with lingering fear, he looked at the unconscious Purple-Faced Lake and checked his breathing.
"He's not dead, thank goodness. And it seems he hasn't become an idiot either. He truly lives up to his reputation as a level 10 psychic. A normal person would probably die instantly after taking a dose of Brainiac's psychic attack."
Luther had no idea that he was using the other person as a scapegoat. That's right, how could someone like Luther really put himself in danger?
Summoning Batman was just a backup plan. In reality, even if Brainiac directly destroyed the pitiful consciousness that possessed him, the one who would suffer would be the purple-haired Black who was tricked into helping, not the high-quality human, Lex Luthor.
"In short..." Luther's lips slowly curled into a smile, "Brainiac's technology is in our hands!"
……
……
……
Rudy Jones felt very hungry.
Strangely, even after he ate several of his former colleagues, the hunger persisted.
Too little, far too little.
He desperately needs more energy and more food.
He looked up and saw the restaurant's television broadcasting news of the Kryptonian female lieutenant's capture by the military.
Rudy licked his lips and then left the restaurant.
All that remained were the dried corpses of restaurant diners and chefs.
