late at night.
Queens, New York.
Inkram Street.
In Zhou Ran's villa.
At this moment, Zhou Ran was sleeping on the bed, but his brows were kept furrowed and the expression on his face was constantly changing. It could be seen that he did not sleep very well this night, and that was true.
In a dark mental space.
Zhou Ran was still talking to the clown.
"Jake, when you wake up tomorrow, you will have the Dionysus factor. From now on, nothing in this world can hurt you!" The clown said slowly with a smile on his lips.
Zhou Ran frowned and asked very curiously: "Clown, what exactly is the Dionysian factor?"
Zhou Ran really didn't understand the Dionysus factor very well.
Although he knows a lot of stories about the DC world, he can't remember everything.
Just like the Dionysian factor, Zhou Ran had heard of it but didn't know what it was.
He remembered that the Joker seemed to have been resurrected many times with the help of the Dionysian factor, and Batman also seemed to have this thing in his body.
But if it was more detailed or specific, he wouldn't know anything.
The clown smiled and explained: "Jake, the Dionysus factor is a very magical thing, a green liquid metal."
"The Dionysian factor can make people heal themselves as before, gain youth for hundreds of thousands of years, and even finally defeat death and become immortal."
"And the Dionysian factor is active in our bodies, but no matter how others take blood samples and tests, there is no way to detect the Dionysian factor."
"Because the Dionysian factor will only come into play after the owner suffers devastating damage. It remains hidden and invisible the rest of the time."
After listening to the clown.
Zhou Ran reached out and pushed up his glasses, and said with some worry: "Clown, according to what you said, the Dionysian factor is a liquid metal, so will it be interfered by magnetic fields and magnetic forces?"
"Joker, I wonder if you can share my memory. If you can share it, you should be able to understand what I am worried about."
"There is a guy in this world named Magneto Eric. He is a mutant. His ability is very powerful. His power can control all metals."
"Hoo ho ho..." Little Scandal said, with a weird laugh coming from his mouth, and said: "Jake, you seem to think too highly of this guy named Magneto."
"Jake, you have to know that having the ability and exerting the ability are two completely different things. Having the ability means that there is such a possibility, but if it cannot be exerted, it equals 0, which means there is no possibility."
"There are so many Kryptonians in the world, but there is only one Clark Kent and only one Superman."
"So, you don't have to worry, your worries are unnecessary."
"Because Magneto will never understand what the Dionysian factor is, his vision and thinking are destined to prevent him from reaching the level where he can control the Dionysian factor."
After the clown finished speaking, he frowned, feeling something was wrong.
He quickly shook his head and continued with a smile: "No, no, no... Jake, what I just said is a bit inaccurate. To be precise, although the Dionysian factor is a liquid metal, it is beyond the control of Magneto. Metal."
"The Dionysian Factor is much higher than Magneto. From the beginning to the end, there are only two people who can truly understand and master the Dionysian Factor. One is the Joker and the other is the Laughing Bat."
"Oh, now there is one more person to add, and that is you, my great god Mr. Jake."
Zhou Ran nodded gently after hearing this.
A very satisfied smile appeared on his face, and he said extremely happily: "With the Dionysus factor, I finally don't have to worry about it anymore."
"I feel very good now, and I feel completely relaxed. Today is a very happy day for me."
Listening to Zhou Ran's words, the clown blinked and said with a smile: "Jake, today is also a very happy day for me."
"Okay, it's time for you to rest now. No matter what happens, I will always be on your side."
"Also, you need to be mentally prepared."
"What kind of mental preparation?" Zhou Ran asked with some confusion.
"Hoo ho ho..." The clown laughed, stared into Zhou Ran's eyes, and said, "The time during the day belongs to you, and the time at night will occasionally belong to me."
"I also need to move my body occasionally. After all, it's dark here and it's really boring."
"This is what you need to be mentally prepared for. If you don't want your hands to be stained with the blood of innocent people, then kill me..."
Zhou Ran frowned when he heard this, took a deep breath, stared into the clown's eyes, and said very calmly: "You can do whatever you want, as long as you don't leave your tail behind and people find out, I don't want to cause trouble."
"In addition, it is better to kill less old people, children, and women. My conscience will be a little uneasy. There are still a lot of villains in this world. You can choose to torture the villains."
"Okay, okay, I'll pay attention!" The clown stretched out his hand to make an OK gesture, nodded, and laughed.
After that, the clown stretched out his hands and pushed Zhou Ran, and Zhou Ran's consciousness left this dark place.
The clown clapped and smiled: "Okay, he has left. You two can come out."
Xiao Zizai clasped his hands together, recited a Buddha's name, and walked out of the darkness, neither sad nor happy.
He looked at the clown and said in a very cold voice: "Clown, you have crossed the line. I feel that my body is hungrier than before. This is a sign of imbalance."
"You are bewitching Zhou Ran's heart, you are making him go to the evil end, and the compassion in his heart is decreasing little by little."
"If you don't give me a reasonable explanation, I will kill you."
After saying that, Xiao Zizai's body glowed with golden light, filled with murderous intent, his eyes were scarlet, and he stared at the clown.
The clown coughed lightly and said with a smile: "Xiao, don't be so angry. I feel that the compassion has not decreased, but has increased."
"You heard what I just said. Although Jake chose to indulge me, he gave me a limit and asked me to play games with those villains."
"Xiao, punishing evil means promoting good. Isn't this compassion?"
Hearing this, Xiao Zizai pushed up his glasses, sneered and said, "It's best this way, clown, I told you, you can do whatever you want, but don't affect Zhou Ran."
"I hope you can remember this sentence, you should be able to feel my murderous intention."
"The Dionysian factor can make you immortal, but it can still make you feel the process of death and the pain of death."
"I will pull out your spine and cut off your face."
The clown chuckled lightly and said: "Okay, Xiao, don't worry, I will never do something stupid like that. I admit that I am a madman, but I am definitely not a fool."
"Everything I do is for the benefit of everyone. You see, in order to help you protect Mercy, I sent that bitch Superman who symbolizes darkness to a place where there is all light."
"Under the gaze of the light, he can do nothing."
"Hoo ho ho..." Hannibal slowly walked out of the darkness, laughed strangely, and said, "Joker, you are right, today is really a day worth being happy about."
"On this day, the clown was forgiven, Xiao protected mercy, and I was free, unprecedented freedom."
"The cage that has been holding me has disappeared. We all got what we wanted most, didn't we?"
"I think we should celebrate."
Hannibal stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, and a grand dinner table appeared. He walked to the table, raised a bottle of red wine, and said with a smile: "Cheers! Come, let's toast together to the great Jake!"
Seeing this, the Joker slowly walked up to Hannibal and slapped Hannibal hard on the face.
Hannibal didn't know why, and was a little stunned, and then his eyes were full of burning anger.
"Hoo hoho..." The clown took out a knife and gently placed it on the corner of Hannibal's mouth. His tone was extremely gentle and he smiled: "Mr. Hannibal, I have reminded you many times not to imitate my laughter. .”
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you don't seem to take my words to heart. Your behavior is really rude!"
"Mr. Hannibal, you know I hate it when others imitate me and laugh like me. It makes me feel ridiculed, makes me very angry, and makes me unable to help but kill people."
"I hope this is the last time I hear that weird laugh from you, otherwise I will really kill you!"
Hearing this, Hannibal suppressed the anger in his heart, sneered and said, "Joker, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to do it, I was really too excited."
"You know a bird that has been kept in a cage, and one day it suddenly flies out and is free. It's an indescribable excitement."
"I'm a little too proud."
The clown looked at Xiao Zizai and Hannibal, coughed lightly, and said with a smile: "Brothers, today is indeed a day worth being happy about."
"But let's not forget that today was an outrageous day, and Jake was humiliated."
"Two brothers, as a part of him, we must avenge him for this. This is also the meaning of why we were born in darkness."
"No matter where you are, there are always some bed bugs that cannot be dealt with by normal means, and that's when we are needed."
"When facing bad people, be worse than the bad people."
"Brothers, what should we do with this Kingpin?"
Xiao Zizai smiled and said, "A poor monk never takes revenge overnight."
"I will pull out Kingpin's spine and turn him into a goat scorpion."
"Of course this is just the first step. You can also peel off his skin, saw off his limbs, Lingchi... in short, there are many ways to torture people."
"Killing him directly would be the greatest gift to him."
Hannibal smiled and said, "I think letting him see himself being eaten alive is the cruelest punishment in the world."
"I believe that no one in this world can resist this terrible fear."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, fear will make people extremely nervous and make the flesh on their bodies even tighter."
"This kind of meat tastes better, more delicate, and more elastic."
The clown smiled and said: "They are all very good ideas. They sound great and make people very interesting."
"But this is not enough. The most terrible punishment in the world is to make a person lose everything, betray his family, have nothing, and finally experience what you said."
"How to torture a person is a great art. Sometimes living is the greatest cruelty to a person."
"Besides, it would be boring to kill a rare prey like Kingpin in one go. That would be too boring."
Xiao Zizi frowned when he heard this. He was not interested in what the clown said.
He is a patient, an alien, and a murderer. He can only enjoy the pleasure of killing people.
He loved the indescribable complex emotions that arose when death came upon a person.
Hannibal is different. He is very interested in what the clown says. He is both a gourmet and a master of psychology.
The happiness gained from playing with other people's psychology is a kind of precious spiritual food for him.
You can eat both spiritual food and material food. Why not?
Hannibal nodded and smiled: "Yes, let him lose everything, lose the most precious thing in his life, then he will be extremely desperate and full of negative emotions."
"But that's not cruel enough. We have to give him a hope and a dreamlike bubble at this time."
"Then smash that bubble so his meat tastes even better."
"This revenge is more satisfying."
"Pah, pah, pah..." After hearing what Hannibal said, the clown couldn't help but applaud, and praised with a smile: "Yes, that's it, Mr. Hannibal is indeed a psychological master who is proficient in human nature. "
"Okay, let's do this and make him completely lose everything. Now we can start taking action."
"Xiao, Hannibal, who among the three of us will appear first?"
Xiao Zizai pushed up his glasses, with scarlet eyes, clasped his hands, and said in a low voice: "I understand what you two mean, but the revenge of a poor monk never takes place overnight. I will try my best to restrain my murderous intention and kill Jin Bin first. Beat him half-crippled."
"I'll leave the rest to you..."
After listening to Xiao Zizai's words.
The Joker and Hannibal couldn't help but look at each other.
The clown shook his head and said helplessly: "Okay, Xiao, it's up to you. Who said you have the biggest and most powerful fists here?"
"Xiao, I still hope you can be gentler and save Jinpin's life so that Jinpin can survive."
"Otherwise, this game will be boring and not fun."
The corners of Hannibal's mouth twitched slightly, he sighed, and reminded: "Oh, I knew it would be like this. How could a group of abnormal patients want to complete one thing together, how could it be so smooth?"
"Xiao, remember to restrain yourself. Don't forget the agreement between us. We agreed to work together. Don't beat my ingredients into a pulp."
"In that case, I'll have to eat beef dumplings."
