Chapter 359 58. The bat family is a bunch of gutless rats! In the face of weak women, you still have to cheat!
The showdown between the old man and Thalia should have started long ago.
But it is said that the elders of the factions within the Assassin’s League have been using their bodies to find trouble. They accused the old man of not being a master of the Assassin’s League at all and not qualified to participate in the leader ceremony.
This forced the old man to take part in the master test first. However, the elders could not resist Thomas, who passed the very difficult master test in less than five days.
Faced with this situation, the elders who had ghosts in their hearts could not bear the pressure after all and held the succession ceremony of the head of the devil.
Er Tong was quite critical of this matter.
He was helped by Damian, which made him miss the big fight with Mason in his hometown world. This was a waste of time and life for Er Tong who had the desire to rescue because of his experience.
But the good news is that their recent efforts have paid off.
Relying on the strong assistance of a group of 2077's company dog roll kings, the old man successfully won the support of a group of small forces while he became a master assassin, allowing him to have his own basic board.
"Damian and I have sneaked into the depths of the Assassin League's castle, and the battle between the old man and Thalia's leader will also enter the final stage. The little lunatic's prediction of the situation is very accurate.
The elders of the Assassin Alliance ambushed the killer here, and they didn't want the second demon leader to be born today. "
Er Tong reported the situation to Mason in the "live broadcast" communication, and Mason was not surprised by this. He found a lounge and opened the door to enter, and enlarged the picture in front of him, saying:
"After finally getting rid of Lei Xiaogu, who would be willing to have another powerful leader on his head?
Get ready, two barrels, proceed according to Damian's plan, if they really plan to split the organization, give them some color and see. "
"Well, I'm just applying for permission to act."
Er Bucket said:
"Because you don't like to see massacres, and I don't intend to contradict you about this kind of thing."
"No, two barrels, I don't like to see senseless massacres."
Mason lit a cigarette and emphasized:
"I agree with this kind of action to eradicate the unrighteous people. If I can't get away, I will be happy to join it.
Is the old man's "persuasion" to his "right-hand man" going well? "
"He didn't talk about it."
Ertong shrugged, and while loading the kinetic energy revolver in his hand, he said:
"I didn't ask, but a few days ago, the elders and several masters of the Nordic faction who firmly refused to recognize the old man's qualifications and their headquarters were mysteriously destroyed overnight.
I suspect that it was the good deeds of that little sister Diana and Sea King Arthur with the broken arm. It must be an expert involved who can do so carefully.
Speaking of it, I don't know where you found this 'grandfather', but every time I stay with him, I feel uncomfortable all over. The feeling of squeezing the cool air from between my teeth is like seeing A Batman who crosses the line. "
The most rebellious member of the Bat-family had a strange longing at this time, and he complained to Mason:
"If I had been cast as Robin by this guy in the first place, I swear I would never have complained to him about anything. This guy is literally the perfect version of me thirty years later.
If I can be like this in the future, I will definitely feel that my life is worthwhile. "
"Did you just say 'over the line'?"
Mason shook his head and said:
"No, Jason, the Batman who crossed the bottom line is not like the old man. Thomas is at most the 'blackened hidden model' of all Batmen in all parallel worlds.
If he really crossed the line, then there is no way we could work with him. "
"Shh, they are here. I put this camera here. If you want to see the details, you can adjust the position yourself."
Damian next to him gestured to him, and Ertong let go of his hand, allowing the drone in his hand to enter optical concealment and fly into the air under Mason's cross-world remote control.
He lurked in the past by himself, took out his beloved famous sword from the bag and handed it to Damian, who put the black famous sword behind his back without saying a word, and was ready for an assault.
Both of them put on the assassin-type Isu armor made by Mason himself.
Not only is it convenient for activities to realize optical camouflage when necessary, but also Mason's own enchanted breath cover, so that they can hide here without being discovered by anyone.
Mason controlled the drone and flew forward in a circle in the secret room under the castle.
He saw the long sword of the head of the devil, which was the token of the leader of the Assassin League, and it was placed on the stone seat in front of the LS road pool below, which was emitting a green luster.
The seven elders of the Assassin Alliance also stood there waiting for the two candidates to enter the final hall.
These elders dressed in different styles are the loyal go-getters of Lei Xiao's ancient times. They command different factions of the Assassin League all over the world, from the forests of Black Africa to the neon cities of East Asia, and to the samba-style cover in South America. Under the circumstances, the power formed by Lei Xiaogu has already spread all over the world.
Damian's grandfather spent nine hundred years building this organization. It doesn't look good on the outside and even has a "loser" image filter.
However, being defeated by the Justice League so many times can make a comeback, which also shows the profound background of this organization. Defeated once by Batman and his gang, the League of Assassins will win ten times and hundreds of times elsewhere.
They can afford to fight a war of attrition, and patience is their greatest strength.
"Boom"
Two stone gates leading to the Lazarus Pool karst cave burst open on both sides of the final hall. The figure of the old man appeared in the left passage, and he walked into the hall leaving **** footprints.
Thalia's figure appeared in the passage on the right, and she was more miserable.
The blood on the body is not only the enemy's, but also your own.
The two have been tested by the assassins since they entered the castle, and they have gone through several checkpoints to get here.
Because it is a battle for the leader, the assassins participating in the test will not be mixed with any affection. Both of them have made a difficult breakthrough from the siege and interception of nearly a thousand assassins and successive assassinations.
They are allowed to use any weapon.
Assassins are the same, this is not an end-to-end test, but a real knife and gun full of death.
In the last level of the attack hosted by 30 ancient master assassins who were revived by secret techniques, they must complete a clean kill with one enemy and thirty to enter the final step.
This is the test that Lei Xiaogu set for his heir. The King of Assassins who has lived for more than 900 years will not allow the legacy he left to be obtained by the weak.
At this time, under the faint green light reflected by the Lazarus Pool, under the silent gaze of the seven elder assassins, the old man reached out and took off the broken cloak of the battle suit and threw it at his feet, while replacing the magazines for his two guns , while looking at Talia al Ghul who was struggling to bandage his wound.
The latter's body was covered with wounds, as if he had rolled around in a knife blade. The most fatal wounds were on his legs and waist. Even though the bleeding had stopped, the opened wounds were still shocking.
Her left arm was nearly completely amputated.
But Thalia's pale face showed no sign of admitting defeat.
This cunning fox-like woman was absolutely unambiguous when it was time to go all out. She wrapped her left arm, grabbed the Assassin's Blade in front of her with her backhand, and made a gesture of preparing for battle.
It is her lifelong wish to succeed her father as the King of Assassins, and she has taken this goal as her ideal in life since she was a child.
Originally, there was only one step away from realizing it, but the damned Mason made a hindrance to force the old man into this battle for the leader.
What saddened Talia the most was that her son actually "betrayed" her at this moment.
Originally, as an outsider, the old man was not qualified to participate in the affairs of the Assassin League. It was Damian who sent back the long sword of the head of the demon, and oppressed him as Lei Xiaogu's direct heir, so that the elders allowed the old man to participate in the master trial. This gave him the qualification to join this competition.
In other words, Thomas Wayne in front of him is actually competing in place of Damian. This is theoretically a competition between their mother and son for the position of leader.
Damn it!
My good son must have been bewitched by that **** Mason Cooper!
"You can throw in the towel, Thalia."
"Your state is no longer able to fight, you can just retreat and go where you should go."
"Where should I go?"
Thalia sneered and said:
"Are you referring to your son's bed? No! Never mind! Thomas, I've already lost to a Batman, and I won't lose to a second madman in a Batsuit."
"You shouldn't have mentioned this."
The old man's tone became cold, and he said:
"This reminds me of how you used him, maybe that's why you always fall into the disadvantage in the fight with Selena, not pure enough
Whether it is love, ambition, cruelty, or martial arts and strategy, this is true. "
"Shut up!"
Thalia, who had been poked at the second sore spot in her heart, stepped on the ground and attacked the old man.
Under the meaningful gazes of the gloomy elders around, the two opponents who intended to be the leader and were regarded as "family members" in a certain sense fell into the desperate situation of fighting each other in an instant.
In fact, being able to pass the test in the castle has proved that both of them have the personal strength to lead the Assassin Alliance, but after all, there is only one leader's throne.
The sound of bullets passing through the cave reverberated, and Thalia was quickly suppressed.
Under the outstanding "gun fighting technique" of the old lady, it is difficult for her to even get close, and even if she barely gets close, she will be hit hard by the revenge knight with a fierce posture.
An old man in his fifties should not have such a strong physique, but the various physical skills Thomas displayed at this time made him look more dangerous than Bruce, who was in his prime.
This scene also made the watching elders frown.
Although Lei Xiaogu had always hoped that his most outstanding disciple, Batman, would lead the Assassin Alliance, but for these powerful elders, they were more inclined to succeed Damian Wayne.
Only a leader who is easy to shake can be handled.
Of course, it would be nicer not to have a leader who promises everything, but a council of elders to run it all.
During the exchange of eyes with each other, these elders quietly sent signals in various ways.
Soon, the sound of dense footsteps resounded around the cave. The perception of being aimed made the old man shake, and Thalia, who was carrying a sword, also stopped attacking.
She wanted to scold those elders for being rude, but the next moment she was kicked out by the old man.
After tumbling on the ground, he fell into the pool of LS road in embarrassment. The piercing bullets also intertwined and flew in the cave, and the elite dead soldiers in black rushed out of the stone gate, and without saying a word, under the suppression of firepower, they rushed towards The old man attacked and killed him.
The structure of this cave has no danger at all. With such prepared firepower, no matter how powerful the revenge knight Batman came from, he would have to hate it.
The elders think so.
Their plan was indeed flawless, but the missiles that exploded in two directions almost at the same time woke them up from their dreams.
Everyone looked back in astonishment and saw two figures, one tall and one short standing up beside the rocks of Devil's Pool, Damian was carrying an armed backpack and constantly projected smart missiles to bombard the shooters at high places, while the second barrel was holding a semi-automatic light sniper to harvest The dead man who was close to the old man gave Thomas enough time to retreat.
But the old man will retreat in this situation?
What a joke!
Only by mastering the organization in front of him can he better protect his lost son!
And the current shameful betrayal is even more contemptible!
He rolled to avoid the grenade at his feet, approached the stone platform, grabbed the long sword of the devil's head, and took out a few "Mason Special" smoke bombs from his waist and smashed them at his feet.
The tumbling smoke quickly enveloped the area, and the old man was even more comfortable after entering Batman's home field.
Screams and dying whimpers echoed in the chaos, as if the gates of **** had been opened, and a killing ghost in a bat suit was released into the world.
However, the old man’s ability to kill the Quartet is not entirely due to his own strength. The old revenge knight in his fifties can keep up with the trend, and he also cheated secretly
"Three people in front, holding explosives, it is recommended to shoot them from a distance!"
In the "ears" of the old man's bat helmet, the voice of Cyborg Victor Stone constantly reminded him where the enemy was and provided him with instant tactical options.
This data consciousness stripped and stored by Mason with Soul Killer has now become the old man's "portable radar". In this confined space, it is equivalent to opening a "full picture hanging" plus a "wall hanging".
The elders saw the situation come to light and saw that the old man had activated the "Killing God" state, and immediately decided to put oil on their feet. As long as they can return to their territory, there is nothing to say about this matter.
However, Damian, who was already full of anger in his heart, would not give them a chance to leave.
"Chop Suey! You have tarnished Lei Xiaogu's name!"
The famous knife Jue was swung, and the snow-white sharp blade accurately pierced the heart of an old man under the quick piercing of the little madman, and then made him kneel to the ground under the violent kick of the little madman. The light exploded.
The other elders were overwhelmed by Damian's murderous aura. At this critical moment, they suddenly realized that perhaps it was a stupid idea to support Damian Wayne's beautiful vision of succeeding to the throne.
This little lunatic has the aura of a young tiger roaring in the forest at this time, they really may not be able to suppress it.
It can only be said that Lei Xiaogu's vision in choosing an heir is really much better than theirs.
"唰"
The blood-colored knife light also burst from behind, and as the guards were killed and fell to the ground, the second barrel holding Alice also came out of the shadows, blocking the last way of these elders.
But Er Tong's attention is not limited to this.
He fired the last bullet of the pistol to the side, and it was hitting Thalia's hand who crawled out of Lazarus Pool. The jumping bullet represented a reminder.
Thalia, who lost in the boss battle, cannot leave yet.
Her captain, Mr. Mason Cooper, wants to have a talk with her, and for this invitation, the loser Thalia has no right to refuse.
"Mother."
In the smoke of gunpowder after the killing was suspended, the voice of Damian holding a blood-stained long knife sounded beside Talia, with a hint of guilt and anxiety.
Thalia, who was wrapped in a blanket, stared back at her son blankly, saying that it was impossible for her not to be sad, but the scolding and sarcastic remarks Damian imagined did not appear.
Instead, his mother stared at him, and after a ten-second silence, she said:
"You have finally learned some real wisdom, and you have inherited your grandfather's vision. You have chosen the right person to claim your inheritance on your behalf, although the price is my failure and exile.
I don't blame you, Damian.
But you remember, after you grow up, you have to rely on your own ability to take back what belongs to you from Thomas Wayne.
My silly boy, you have picked yourself an opponent you may never win in your life. "
"But Thomas is in his fifties."
Damian whispered:
"By the time I was forty, he would be in his nineties. I think all I need to do to get the League of Assassins back is to sign the notice of extubation, and you must have underestimated your son.
Give me ten more years to see if I can knock the Vengeance Knight down. "
"Um?"
The son's witty words didn't make Talia really happy. She snorted, which made Damian straighten up subconsciously immediately.
"Take care to learn from Mason, Damian."
Talia stood up, and she said to her son earnestly:
"Imitate him, follow him, but don't be him. The path he is going to take is something you can't go. I don't want you to be that kind of hero. That is a heavier fate than Batman."
