Chapter 496 Bain: Thank you so much!
Rune ignored the struggling Assassin Brotherhood members; their fate was already sealed. Without wide-range, high-damage skills, Polymorph was virtually unstoppable.
The assassins certainly had some stun grenades and fragmentation grenades, and even various strange and unusual weapons that Lucius had developed for Batman, but all of this was ultimately in vain.
Stun grenades posed a risk of friendly fire, fragmentation grenades were clearly insufficient, and many of the weapons developed by Lucius were simply not lethal. Thus, they could only be devoured by the giant wolves in despair.
It was less of a battle and more of a demonstration. This mage could kill all the assassins so easily, so he could easily kill the other villains as well.
Rune, under the watchful eyes of the other supervillains, reached the center position. He then looked at the madwoman behind him and asked, "Harley, can you bring the Flash over here for me?"
"Roger that!" Harley and Poison Ivy tugged at each other and left, laughing and joking. Their actions immediately sparked other ideas among the other supervillains.
The fireflies slowly retreated, trying to leave Black Gate Prison when no one was paying attention, while the Kite Man simply raised his hand, looking as obedient as a primary school student asking a question to a teacher.
"What is it?"
The kite flyer was also frank, saying, "I want to leave here."
With this gold brick, as long as he can get through this terrible night safely, he can plan a few jobs for himself, such as opening a restaurant, and maybe even hire a lawyer to win back custody.
Kite Man had no doubt that Batman could win again. Although the assassins mentioned that the superhero had been poisoned and seriously injured, Batman had not lost as long as he hadn't seen Batman's body.
This wasn't just Kite Man's idea; it was a common perception among all the villains.
"Of course." Rune saw that the other villains were eager to leave, so he waved his hand and said, "Alright, everyone else can leave too, but Bane and Scarecrow are staying."
Rune's original intention was to obtain some Titan Venom and Fear Venom. One of these venoms can create a powerful body with strength measured in tons, while the other allows people to confront their deepest fears. Both are of great research value.
But the scarecrow simply smashed a vial filled with fear venom on the ground.
The Scarecrow was once a brilliant psychology professor with profound knowledge in the field of chemistry, but he was often bullied by his classmates because he was thin and weak during his student days, and was even locked in a church with crows.
Driven by a strong desire for revenge, Scarecrow vowed to study fear and instill terror in everyone. After being fired from Gotham University, Scarecrow's personality became increasingly extreme.
The original Scarecrow was actually a simple little character who bullied the weak and feared the strong. He wanted to commit crimes but was afraid of being caught by the police. However, he later became extremely crazy.
The Scarecrow now calls himself an artist of terror, wanting everyone to understand the art of fear. Ironically, he himself is not immune to the effects of fear venom; he is afraid of crows and Batman.
But he never considered overcoming his fear.
Unlike Batman, he enjoys fear, including his own. Inhaling Fear Venom only makes him scream and experience pleasure at the same time. Rune's call on Scarecrow, however, stimulated him, making him fearful and exciting the villain. That's why he couldn't help but throw the Fear Venom on the ground.
In other words, the scarecrow is currently in a high-dose state.
"Are you insane?" Bane roared angrily, quickly retreating to get away from the fear gas. The other villains also chose to flee, with only the clown curiously approaching.
He took a deep breath into the vast expanse of green poisonous fog, but unfortunately, the clown was completely unable to feel any fear; he and his counterpart, the clown, were both immune to the gas.
Rune wasn't idle either. He used Polymorph to turn all the released fear gas into bees, which buzzed around the mage and quietly perched on his shoulder.
The catwoman, who had been hiding to the side, finally breathed a sigh of relief; the series of events had overwhelmed her.
Just minutes ago, Rune defeated Killer Croc, found out the Flash's location, and killed a large number of League of Assassins.
Bain breathed a sigh of relief.
The destructive power of the fear gas increases with the number of people. Blackgate Prison was just full of criminals. If the Scarecrow's gas were to spread, at least half of the supervillains here would probably die.
The scarecrow wanted to continue releasing the fear gas, but Rune waved his hand, and all the items on the scarecrow flew to the mage's feet.
Fortunately, Rune himself was kind enough to leave the scarecrow his underwear, but the scarecrow was not grateful. The thin man felt insulted, let out a shrill scream, and charged at Rune.
bump!
Before it could even reach Rune, the Scarecrow was punched in the face by Bane, who was burning with rage. Naturally, the Scarecrow immediately fell peacefully asleep.
In fact, Scarecrow is a master of Crane Fist. His fighting style also incorporates Drunken Fist, and he can fully utilize his long arms and legs, making him a formidable opponent in hand-to-hand combat.
Ultimately, however, his physical body still falls within the realm of ordinary people. Facing Bane's hateful attack, he was already incredibly lucky to have survived.
Having vented his anger, Bain refocused his gaze on Rune and asked, "What exactly do you want?"
He roughly knew Rune's stance; this sorcerer was accompanied by Catwoman and wanted to rescue the Flash, clearly indicating he was on Batman's side.
However, Bain was somewhat confused about what Rune was trying to do by letting the mage release a large number of villains at will.
Rune didn't answer the question immediately. Instead, he first searched the scarecrow's clothes, then put the mask and all the fear venom into his own space, and finally kicked the somewhat thin-looking man.
The scarecrow immediately let out a soft groan, which reassured Rune.
Originally, he wanted to get some Fear Gas for Tony and the others to study, but now he thought, he still has mind-reading ability, so why not just read his memories and get the method of making the gas?
But if the scarecrow dies, Rune can't read its mind and can only ask about its soul, which is very troublesome.
Fortunately, the scarecrow is still alive.
"I want some Titan Venom, can you give me some?" Rune asked Bane as he squatted down, tapping the scarecrow's forehead with his index finger to retrieve the process of making fear gas from its memory.
Bain scoffed.
"Do I even have a choice?"
"Of course! Go die now, and I'll take the Titan Venom from the jar behind you, isn't that an option too?" Rune glared at Bane. "I don't have a no-kill policy. You're alive now, and you should be most grateful to me. Oh, by the way, did you say thank you, Bane?"

----Thanks.
