Chapter 96 48. Riddler get out of Gotham, please--【3150】
"My God! Mr. J"
On a tree outside the Arkham Asylum, Dr. Harley Quinzel, who was placed here by the Poison Ivy, saw the scene of the Joker being executed by Mason through a telescope.
The corner of her mouth twitched.
On the one hand, the nightmare in her heart is finally over.
Finally, she no longer had to worry about being hurt by Zhou Keer.
But on the other hand, a strange sense of loss rose in Dr. Halle's heart.
It seems that a possibility has been lost forever in life.
This strange emotion brought a relaxed and regretful smile to Dr. Halle's face, which slowly widened and finally formed a weird grin.
"Whatever it is, the old life is over, and my life has entered a new stage."
Halley Quizell moved her body to take off the tattered doctor's robe and throw it away. She thought for a while and said:
"How about changing your name to celebrate the new student?"
Then she saw a black-clothed warrior escaping from Arkham clutching his stomach. Harley was startled and grabbed the baseball bat left by Poison Ivy for her self-defense.
She licked her lips.
Staring at the samurai who was running away, the strange impulse that was suppressed by the palliative agent rose again in his heart.
"How about calling it Harley Quinn? The Queen, it sounds great."
Thinking about it, she jumped down from the branch of the tree, screaming and cheering, swinging a baseball bat at the raised samurai like a preying cat.
boom
It was like the muffled sound of bullets smashing into the skull.
Blood splattered everywhere.
—
Arkham Asylum is still burning.
I don’t know which genius ignited the entire old building in the chaos, and the battle between the Bat Family and the League of Assassins left them with no time to extinguish the growing flame.
The entire building on the ground has been burned into a dazzling torch in the night.
But the battle is not over.
On the only roof that is still safe, the final fierce battle is still going on.
Batman VS Bat Cub, Catwoman VS Thalia.
Almost like two fateful matchups, with two spectators hiding aside.
"Stay still, look you're all **** up."
Mason took off the deformed and twisted helmet, waved a bat tranquilizer and stuck it on Grayson's neck, trying to calm down the excited guy.
"Go and separate them!"
Ye Yi didn't care about his injury at all.
He grabbed Mason's hand and pointed tremblingly at Batman and Scarlet Knight who were fighting to the death.
Master is obviously very guilty of Jason Todd, so he was a little restrained when fighting, but on the other hand, the furious Scarlet Knight held two pistols and used a very cool "gun fighting technique", which was almost fatal.
Perhaps the former second-generation Robin was still lacking when facing Batman, but the penance trained by the King of Assassins in the League of Assassins for a year and a half has made up for his shortcomings.
He also has the advantage that he has completely broken the bottom line of the Bat Family, and no longer uses death as his shackles to limit his destructive power.
"Mason! Separate them! Please."
Nightwing begged.
But Mason doesn't even look there.
He pulls out the first aid kit and debrides and bandages Dick Grayson in the midst of this miserable mess, as precise and flawless as ever.
He said:
"I've already helped them handle the most troublesome part, and the next step is the communication between the guilty father and the rebellious child. I still say the same thing.
We better stay out of the way.
Bruce will take care of it all.
He has already done it twice, he should learn his lesson. "
The bat-sedative took effect, and Nightwing felt a wave of dizziness hit him.
He leaned against the wall and watched Mason bandage up the wounds on his body quickly. At the last moment before falling asleep, he whispered to Mason:
"Thank you, without your shot, this matter is destined to be difficult to end tonight. But you will be killed."
"It's okay, Grayson."
Mason comforted softly:
"Don't feel sorry for me, I never wanted to join your twisted big family, it was too heavy a life for me.
I wish I had an easier life.
Go to sleep.
Don't waste that pill I gave you.
After you wake up, you will be stronger enough to prevent such a tragedy from happening. Oh, by the way, I have good news for you. "
"Um?"
The drowsy Nightwing raised his head and looked at Mason.
The latter said with a smile on his face:
"You have another little brother who needs your care, dear mother bird, believe me, that guy will give you more headaches than Jason, get ready in advance."
"?"
Nightwing fell into a coma with intense doubts. Mason dragged him to a safe place and stood up and moved his body, grabbing the reloaded blaster cannon and aiming back.
"boom"
Swirling bullets shoot out from the muzzle, Lv4 shooting skills make Mason's precision even more deadly.
At the moment of the gunshot, Thalia roared in the distance and the blade that stabbed Selena was deflected and sparks shot out, and Catwoman seized the opportunity to stab the vicious assassin lady in the waist.
"Help! Mason!"
Selina, who was suppressed and a little miserable, let out a loud cry.
"coming."
The young man responded, then stared at Thalia who was retreating and launched his new talent.
Death Eye, activate!
The world in front of him almost "paused" at this moment, like the effect of the legendary "Smashing Varudo", Mason could feel his energy draining rapidly.
He seized this fleeting opportunity.
Staying the muzzle of his gun on Thalia and the Scarlet Knight for a while, he glanced at several important points, pulled the trigger several times, and emptied all the bullets in the magazine.
In the next moment, the effect of "Smashing Varudo" disappears, and the perception returns to the normal time flow rate.
"Bang bang bang bang bang"
Five bullets flew out of the gun almost at the same time, shooting towards the two people in front.
The katana in Thalia's left hand, the dart in his right hand, the magic accessories hanging on his chest, and the pistol in the scarlet knight's hands were thrown out at the same time.
In just a split second, the two who were still struggling were "disarmed" by Mason.
"Huh!"
The young man felt that these few shots had almost exhausted his energy, so that he propped up his body with the gun on the spot and yawned several times.
But the two people on the opposite side were miserable.
Thalia, who had lost her weapon and protection, was rushed up by the catwoman with shining eyes and stabbed her three times. Her proud black hair was "shaved" viciously by the sister catwoman who always had short hair.
And Jason, who lost his two guns, could only be forced to fight the master with his fists.
But how could Batman, who has won the "Gotham Boxing Championship" countless times, lose to this Robin who was trained by himself in the field he is good at?
But ten tricks!
The angry and crazy Scarlet Knight was beaten to the ground by the master with almost the same assassination technique of the League of Assassins.
When a man and a woman were knocked down at the same time, their eyes intertwined.
The next moment, Talia threw a special smoke bomb towards the ground, and the scarlet knight roared and pushed the master away and rushed towards Talia.
The two of them rolled and fell from the roof of the building together, and then disappeared into the sea of fire on the ground.
"Your son is mine! Bitch!"
The victorious Catwoman yelled from the roof:
"Talia! You bitch, stay away from my husband and son! If you dare to stretch out your claws, I will chop you off!"
No sound echoed from the fire burning below to respond to Catwoman's outrageous "declaration of victory." But she stood on the edge of the building and felt dizzy after shaking for a few times, covering the wound stabbed twice by Thalia before falling down.
A black shadow rushed over, pulling Selena back from the edge of falling.
The master, who was holding Catwoman in his arms, stood silently on the top of the building.
He looked at the raging flames below, as if he was looking for Jason Todd.
A few seconds later, he looked back to the center of the roof already surrounded by flames, where the flaming corpse of a colorfully dressed clown was lying in a pool of blood.
Even the best surgeon in the world couldn't sew it up.
Batman's mood at this time is hard to fathom.
But he didn't know what he was thinking when Mason fired the fatal bullet just now.
He knew what would happen after the Joker died, but instead of stopping the bullet, he threw Jason down and pulled Grayson out of the danger zone.
Maybe
Perhaps this is also the answer to that question in my heart.
"It's all over."
Selina in her arms touched the crack in the armor on the master's heart, and she said softly:
"Don't think too much, it's all over, they will come back, and they will come back to you as before, you are not a bad father."
The master shook his head and did not answer.
Everything that happened in the past is like a throwing knife into the target.
Removing the throwing knife does not mean that everything can be regarded as never happened, because the crack on the target will always exist.
"Can we leave now?"
Mason's voice came from behind.
He helped the unconscious Ye Yi to get up, the young and old was covered with bandages and looked as miserable as a patient dragged out of the ICU.
Batman looked at Mason with complicated eyes.
After being silent for a few seconds, he was about to speak, but suddenly a huge explosion came from a distance, and the soaring flames that burst into the sky in the night of Gotham City in the distance immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.
Against the background of the flames, a one-person hot air balloon painted green and made a big "?" in the center with black paint dangled down from the night sky that was about to dawn.
In the green hot air balloon basket, a guy in a green suit holding a cane and a high hat is posing with his hands open like a "superstar debut".
It is worth mentioning that this guy's suit, hat, shirt and forehead are all dotted with black "?".
When he saw this guy, even the always indifferent Mr. Bat let out a painful and helpless sigh, and the Catwoman in his arms was so angry that he wanted to smash the bastard's forehead with a shot.
"Dangdangdangdangdang! Congratulations, the great Bat family, once again you have accomplished an almost impossible feat in a dire crisis!
You saved Gotham!
You saved Arkham!
You even saved me! "
The guy stood in the basket of the hot air balloon, waving his cane and shouting in a spirited tone:
"But in order to draw a perfect ending to this perfect story tonight, I, the much-anticipated villain Riddler! will appear as the last horror character you must defeat!
Uh, is Zhou Keer in the pool of blood over there?
That's great!
Who killed that **** who hates ghosts so neatly?
I want to reward him with a little green flower! "
"My God."
Mason covered his face with his hands, and he complained in a low voice:
"Can I shoot him in the head? I won't miss it, really! Just one shot."
"嗖"
Batman reacts faster than Mason.
A black batarang flew out like a bullet out of the chamber, precisely piercing the Riddler's hot air balloon, causing the guy to scream and fall into the sea of flames below.
But soon, he wobbled back to his original position with the support of a weird jetpack.
he shouted:
"You can't do this! This is against the rules! Listen, this is a riddle that I carefully prepared, and you must complete this riddle before dawn!
I know what you're going to say.
But sorry, you guys have to play this game. Because when the League of Assassins was fighting with you, I had taken the time to plant seventeen bombs in seventeen places in Gotham City!
The big bang you saw just now is my reminder to you.
don’t worry.
The explosion just destroyed the empty Gotham Police Station, but the bomb that will be detonated next will not be so simple.
My dear Batman.
Are you ready to listen to my well-prepared riddles? "
Facing this malicious invitation, Catwoman yawned and took Master's hand as she walked towards the stairs, saying:
"Let him go, let this guy continue to entertain himself, we are all tired, we should go back and rest."
"Hey! I planted a bomb! No kidding!"
Seeing Catwoman dismissing him, and Batman actually following Catwoman and turning away, the Riddler suddenly couldn't hold back.
He yelled:
"That's a very, very dangerous bomb, each of which can blow up a building! In the current chaotic situation in Gotham, once I detonate those bombs, it will create a terrifying massacre in an instant!
Batman!
Didn't you understand my threat?
Or do you mean that you have become a cold-blooded **** who disregards human life? "
"Come on, Nygma!"
Catwoman turned her head and curled her lips in disdain and responded:
"You are the Riddler."
"so what?"
The Riddler felt Catwoman's contempt, and this guy who appeared like a comedian hung in the air with his hips on his hips and asked with staring eyes:
"I'm the Riddler, then what? What do you want to say? Catwoman!"
"You're a Riddler so you can't do a shit! You try your best every time to come up with something that looks horrible, but you take the initiative to hide clues in your **** boring riddles and tell Batman !
But he's the best detective in the world.
Your **** riddles he can solve in half a minute, so you can't even do a shit! "
Selena replied directly, which immediately angered the Riddler.
The colorfully dressed guy waved his cane and shouted:
"Shut up! You little wild cat kept in captivity by Batman! You don't understand the meaning of the word 'Riddler' at all! I'm Gotham's top villain!
I am one of Batman's greatest enemies!
I was only one place lower than the Joker in the list of the "Most Feared Villains by Gotham Citizens" in the last villain forum! Every time I show up, the whole of Gotham panics because of me!
Millions of people will be scared out of their wits by my riddles!
enough!
I don't want to discuss this with you, a second-rate villain like you won't understand.
Anyway!
Batman, for the sake of those seventeen bombs, you must solve my riddle before dawn! Now are you ready for my appetizing puzzle?
Ahem!
listen!
What goes into a dark alley on six legs and comes out on two? "
The entire roof was dead silent.
Only the sound of the surrounding flames reverberating in the night, Catwoman's expression became weird and she took a peek at Batman, who was emitting a chill all over his body.
Mason next to him was also taken aback.
Hello!
Was it such a crazy puzzle from the beginning?
You are really looking for death, Mr. Riddler.
Master's hand held by Catwoman trembled slightly, perhaps because too much energy was consumed in the previous battle, or because the long night tonight made him tired.
He called the young man by name.
"Mason."
"Um?"
"Do it!"
"boom"
