The Void Walker in American Comics...

Chapter 426 Choice
Moon, who was watching a football game with Jonathan, suddenly received a call from Bruce.

"...You said you caught those who summoned demons?"

Mu En stood up in surprise and walked towards the door. It had only been a short time, and Bruce and the others had already achieved such a result.

"It was Selina. She discovered the demon summoner, so we rushed there in time and captured them..."

After listening to Bruce's explanation, Mu En suddenly realized that this was how they found it.

But this is a normal thing. After all, Selina has been hanging out with various gangs since she was a child. She has a very keen intuition about those who have malicious intentions, so it is normal for her to be able to detect those demon summoners.

It's just that Bruce and the others seem to be unable to get news from those people for the time being. Those people are very tight-lipped, and no matter what method Bruce uses, they can't make these people speak.

"So you want to find me to see if I can make them tell the truth?"

"That's right, teacher. We have even tried Alfred's method, but they don't show any signs of wanting to reveal anything."

Bruce's voice was solemn. They had interrogated these people for a long time, but they didn't get any answers.

Bruce has only met a handful of people who keep their mouths shut over the years, and all of them were sent to Arkham by him.

"Okay, I understand. I'll be there in a moment."

After hanging up the phone, Mu En returned to the room and said to Jonathan who was watching the game and Martha who was preparing tea and snacks.

"My students have caught the villain who summoned the devil. I have to go there and find out the real mastermind. Then you don't have to worry about the devil anymore."

Hearing this, the husband and wife nodded repeatedly. They understood the importance of this matter. As long as the mastermind behind the scenes was solved, their lives would return to the past.

After instructing the two, Mu En turned into thick mist and disappeared from in front of them.

Meanwhile, inside Wayne Manor, Bruce, who had just connected everyone via video, saw thick fog in front of him.

"Batman, why is there so much fog around you?"

Barry's voice came from the communicator. He was very curious about the thick fog around Bruce. After all, he knew clearly that Batman was an ordinary person who possessed some special energy, not like them who had different superpowers.

"Nothing, the teacher is here!"

Bruce responded, and the mist around him gradually disappeared, and Moon appeared in front of him.

"Are you chatting with your friends?"

Watching Bruce making a video call, Moon walked forward with interest and looked down at the monitor.

He was very interested in the team organized by Bruce, and he also wanted to see who were among the first batch of people in Bruce's organization.

The moment he looked at the video screen, Mu En was attracted by one of the people.

"Yo, long time no see ma'am!"

Diana appeared in the video, which surprised Moon a little. After all, Bruce never mentioned that Diana was among their team members.

"It's you?"

Diana, who was far away in Europe, was also surprised to see Muen appear in the video call.

They met nearly thirty years ago, when Mu En took away a flaming sword. Although the flaming sword that was returned to him looked no different, she could clearly feel that the energy in it had disappeared.

"Hey, it seems we have a great destiny~"

With a slight smile, Mu En continued:

"He, the Batman you are talking about, is my student. Of course, this little black girl is also my student."

As he spoke, Mu En also gestured to Selena who was also in the video, and Selena smiled and nodded.

"By the way, this boy is my godson. What did you call him? Um... Superman!"

Everyone in the video was stunned by the news. They didn't expect that this man who looked about the same age as Clark was actually Bruce and Selina's teacher, and the godfather of Superman, the most powerful of them all.

Just when everyone was still immersed in surprise, Mu En's voice rang out again.

"Flash Kid, you're here too, and you Constantine..."

Mu En called out all their identities, and when he read out Green Arrow, he was a little stunned.

Green Arrow wasn't wearing his iconic gear, and when Moon saw this guy, he had no idea who he was.

"This is..." He looked at Bruce in confusion, but heard Bruce explain: "Green Arrow, the guardian of Star City."

"Green Arrow?"

Looking at this superhero whose name was the same as the chewing gum he remembered, Mu En raised his eyebrows slightly.

Mu En didn't know much about this archery master, but he did pay attention to Black Canary, who worked with him, for some time before he traveled through time.

"Hello, it seems we are the only two who haven't met before. By the way, does your family produce chewing gum?"

chewing gum?
This made Oliver stunned for a moment, but then he saw Mu En's smile and immediately reacted with a smile.

"Producing chewing gum? That's a good suggestion. Maybe everyone will be able to eat my chewing gum soon."

As a wealthy man like Bruce, Oliver's wealth may not be as huge as Bruce's, but it is not much less either. Investing in a chewing gum factory is a piece of cake for him.

After getting to know everyone, Moon turned to look at Bruce.

"Let's go. I also want to see who sent those guys."

As they spoke, the two walked towards the place where the demon summoner was imprisoned. After arriving in front of these people, Mu En looked at them carefully.

Although he had never seen them, he could feel a unique aura from these people.

"It looks like there is something..."

As he spoke, Mu En raised his hand and pressed it on the head of a demon summoner, and the connection was instantly completed through transmission of consciousness.

He entered into this person's memory, traveling through countless memories, looking for useful information.

"Batman? He is just our prey..."

A low voice in the memory caught Mu En's attention. After entering that memory, Mu En finally understood the identities of these people.

"The Court of Owls? I see."

Through his memory, Mu En instantly understood the identities of these people and the real purpose of their doing all this.

After disconnecting the telepathy, Moon recovered and looked at Bruce.

"Remember Gotham's scary nursery rhyme?"

"You mean..." Bruce hesitated.

"Yes, it's them. Those little birds stretched out their claws, trying to make them sharper."

Bruce was stunned when he heard this answer. He had not found any trace of the Court of Owls in these years and thought that the Court of Owls had disappeared. He did not expect that these people would become even worse and summon demons everywhere.

"So the factory you and Constantine found is also theirs?"

"Yes, they did it all. They also took away the corpse of the demon that was disposed of more than 20 years ago."

After exploring the memories of the Demon Summoner, Moon already knew everything. Although he didn't know who the members of the Court of Owls were, he understood that those members were all residents of Gotham.

It can even be said that if all the prominent families in Gotham were killed, there is a 90% chance that it was not an accidental killing.

That’s right, that’s what the Court of Owls is. They are the real controllers of Gotham, and members of all the prominent families in Gotham are members of the Court of Owls.

"If that's the case, then I understand."

Originally, the Court of Owls did not take any action, and Bruce had no plans to look for these people.

But now it's different. Since the Court of Owls has become a source of danger to the world, he doesn't mind putting all these people into Arkham and letting them reunite there.

"I'll catch them all."

"You can't do it!" As soon as Bruce finished speaking, Moon said, "You can't catch them unless you are willing to start a massacre!"

These words not only stunned Bruce, even everyone in the communicator was stunned the moment they heard these words again.

Why is Moon so determined that if Bruce wants to get rid of those behind the scenes, he must start a massacre?

Mu En raised his hand and pressed it on the head of the demon summoner. As the energy in his hand surged, the demon summoner turned into ashes and dissipated in an instant.

"Boy, are you willing to start a massacre? Even if it kills innocent people?"

"This……"

Bruce was silent. He was unwilling to do this. What he pursued was peace, not dictatorship.

But he also understood what Mu En meant. If he couldn't do this, everything he did would be in vain.

"why?"

Bruce asked the question in his mind: why did the teacher let him choose to pick up the butcher knife?

"Why? Because they are all famous and prestigious families with a long history in Gotham!"

Moon's tone was calm, but to Bruce and even others, these words were extremely shocking.

Gotham's historic and prominent families are members of the Court of Owls, which means that most of Gotham's upper class are their enemies.

No wonder, no wonder the teacher asked him if he was willing to pick up the butcher knife and kill.

If what the teacher said was true, even if he massacred all the upper class people in Gotham, the number of innocent people would probably be insignificant, only a few.

"Oh my god, we're actually fighting against Gotham's upper class!"

Barry's surprised voice sounded in the communicator. It was the first time he encountered an enemy who was the upper class of a city.

The families that have survived to this day in Gotham may not have as much wealth as the Wayne family, but they are not poor families either. They are the richest group of people besides the Wayne family.

This also explains why there are so many people summoning demons everywhere. After all, it is no exaggeration to say that there will always be brave men when there is a big reward.

There are always people who are willing to risk their lives for money, and they are the ones assigned to various places by these families.

It can be said that except for a small number of people who were sent by these families, most of the people were lured here by the huge wealth.

"I see. No wonder you asked me if I was willing to start a massacre. If so, that is indeed a serious question."

There are simply too many families in Gotham. If all of them were dealt with, it would only make Gotham even more chaotic.

But if these families cannot be completely wiped out, they will continue to summon demons and endanger the safety of all mankind.

Bruce fell silent, he couldn't figure out how to solve this problem.

There was also silence in the communicator, and everyone fell silent.

This is not about defeating or killing a certain person, it is about wiping out all the families in Gotham. This is an action that is enough to shake the foundation of Gotham. They cannot give their own suggestions.

Moon raised his hand which was surrounded by void energy, looked at the silent Bruce and shook his head slightly.

He is not Bruce. Although he is Bruce's teacher, he cannot control Bruce's thoughts and turn him into a puppet of his own.

The most important thing is that the number of people who die in this world has nothing to do with him, so he doesn't care about a person's life or death.

But Bruce is different, he is from this world, he grew up in Gotham, and everything he sees is real in this world.

He couldn't act rashly, and he wouldn't massacre all these families.

"Okay, let me erase their memories."

Moon gave Bruce a suggestion. Since Bruce could not kill all the people in the Court of Owls, he should erase their memories and let the demon disappear from their memories.

"Teacher, is this really okay?"

"Of course. Not only do they not remember, but no one else will remember either."

"That's it, I can't kill them, but can you let me know who they are?"

"Yes, you will be the only ones who remember the true history."

As soon as he finished speaking, waves of time power emanated from Mu En's body. Mu En used the power of Protea [Protea Spiritual Machine] to lock time back to more than 20 years ago.

"Come on, I'll show you the nests of those little birds."

Mu En just raised his hand and waved it lightly, and the scene in front of them quickly reversed, and in the blink of an eye they came to a hall where a large number of people wearing owl masks gathered.

"They are members of the Court of Owls and will be your enemies, but now, they and all of Gotham will forget about the demon."

As he spoke, the power in Mu En's hands suddenly changed, and several beams of energy flew out and continued to disperse in the air.

“Those things…”

"The power of the mind can reshape everyone's memory, and their memories will deviate from yours."

Following the sound, Bruce saw the dispersed power enter the heads of those members. Everyone became dazed, and some even took off their masks.

"It's him!"

Bruce raised an eyebrow slightly when he saw a man taking off his mask. He knew that man.

Soon, the power in Mu En's hands changed again, turning into the power of the void that enveloped the mountains of demon remains, and gradually dissipated in front of them.

"it's over……"

With a sigh from Moon, everything in front of them disappeared, and they could see the scenery of Wayne Manor again.
