Chapter 45
"You are willing to be deceived by a fool and unwilling to focus on the really important things. Gotham will be ruined by you! Bastards!"
If you just listen to this sentence, then Chief Lauber is definitely one of the people who moved Gotham's, but the fact now is that he and his unreasonable arrogance and arrogance are affecting the progress of really important things, so he finally Was "invited" out.
"Laub was not such a stubborn person." Alfred whispered, "It's just that Falcone's death makes his status precarious. He urgently needs to do something to maintain his current position. That’s all."
"Oooh! Listen to what you say, old fogey."
Cyber exaggeratedly said, "So it’s the position of that fatty, the whole city, including Are you all planning to be cut off with your hands tied up inside?"
He put his hands on the table, his head on the palm, and he looked at the people in front of him, "I actually doubt it. How does this kind of stuff sit in the position of chief of the police station? Doesn't this kind of position need a righteous and competent person to take it? For example, Chief Jim Gordon, I think he is good, Nath Mr. Te, what do you say?"
"cough cough"
Of course Gordon knows who the person behind the mask is, but he is really embarrassed about such an ingenious "recommendation" No, he was lightly coughed and was about to speak, but was interrupted by the mayor’s assistant. Nestor Blunt, who looked rather young and capable, said,
"That is a leftover problem, we can a little bit Later, let’s talk about you now, Mr. Mysterious Person. Although I don’t recognize the logo myself, from the opinion of Major Thomas, your message is trustworthy. So let’s get to the point. Who are they? Why are they attacking Gotham? And how do they plan to attack Gotham?"
Cyber turned his head and looked towards Alfred, the latter nodded towards him,
"I will introduce this, in After receiving the warning from Mr. Mysterious Person, the Wayne family made great efforts to collect information about them. The organization is called the League of Shadows. Yes, it sounds silly, but it does exist, and the history of existence far exceeds ours. It is their imagination that the Great Fire of London in 1666 came from them, including the tragic massacre in Europe after entering modernization. All have something to do with them."
Alfred has a clear word, just a short one."
In a few words, the terrifying of the League of Shadows was rendered, and then the tone was emphasized, attracting the attention of everyone present,
"As for why they are eyeing Gotham, it is a pity, the specific reason is that we It’s not clear, but based on their internal situation, this is likely to be an action involving evil beliefs. You can regard them as armed cultists and fight dash on br. avely with no thought of personal safety, the most important thing is that they have undergone rigorous training, are more difficult to deal with than ordinary soldiers, and have strong execution ability. This is why I found Shane Battier! "
Alfred looked towards Nestor, the gray-haired face revealed a touch of solemnity,
"Before the National Guard comes, we can’t take all the I hope it will be put on Gotham Police Station. I believe Mr. Gordon has the same opinion! "
The two people slowly nodded. Gotham Police Station is not bad enough to describe. Major Thomas is a soldier. He is more concerned about the other side. After Alfred finished speaking, he knocked Knock on the table and asked in a low voice,
"So what about their possible organizational offensive mode? "
"They can dispatch 300-500 people. "
Alfred thoughtfully said that this number is what he learned from his Young Master. The League of Shadows is a huge organization. Such an armed force can even be called an army.
"As for the offensive mode, the confirmation we got was that they held an instrument off the Atlantic Ocean to be sent to the Nevada Desert for military experiments. It was designed by Wayne Industries for the U.S. Army’s desert operations plan. Yes, that instrument can quickly evaporate all the liquid within 5 blocks. "
"It doesn't sound threatening. Can it evaporate human body water?" "
Major Thomas frowned asked, and Alfred replied in a low voice, "Yes!" But I don’t think they will use it to evaporate anyone’s blood. "
Everyone’s expressions were a little confused, Lucius, who was leaning against the door, stretched out a finger,
"Major, if the evaporated water contains psychotoxins Woolen cloth? "
"peng"
Thomas instantly stood up from his chair, both of his hands propped on the table, his face solemnly looked at Lucius and Alfred, "Are you sure?" "
They did not answer, but the expression on their faces proved everything, and the major turned his gaze to Nestor and Gordon. From their ugly faces, the major already knew the answer to this question. Yes, Nestor and Gordon immediately thought of the poisoning incident in the Arkham lunatic asylum on the narrow island a few days ago.
"I immediately contact the State National Guard Command! "
The major left his seat, he hesitated, "But forgive me to speak bluntly, it also takes 3 hours for the National Guards from Gotham to come over, plus the time for communication and reporting. It is very likely that it will exceed 4 hours. Is there enough time? "
"Of course...not enough! "
Cyber moved his shoulders and stood up, spreading his hands, "Guys, don't be fantasised, they are already here!" My assistant was attacked by them on the narrow island. Yes, they have touched the side of your house. Maybe the next moment will lift the knife and slash at your neck. "
"I immediately returned to the city hall and suggested to the mayor to evacuate the people. "
Nest is a real activist. He stood up, put the coat in his hand, and Gordon also stood up, "I...hey, I can summon those Police officers, mounted police and heavy policemen who are willing to act, but I don't know where to take them? "
"Go to Narrow Island! "
Lucius, who has been standing at the door, took out a monitor from his pocket. It was a bird's-eye view of Gotham's. A red circle was very obvious on that picture, surrounding the entire Gotham's center.
"This is the only vehicle that can cover the entire city center in the shortest time. If I were the League of Shadows, I would put that instrument on it and just walk around. In 30 minutes, 40% of the Gotham city area will be completely covered by the fear of poison qi rising into the air, and the water system hub of the entire city is under the Wayne Building, where it is the end point. Once they get there, the entire city’s The water supply system is over. This will be the beginning of the chaos of the second wave. "
Lucius glanced at the crowd and whispered, "Yes, I'm talking about the empty rail train. Its starting point is on the narrow island. What they want is not destruction, everyone, What they want is chaos! So this is the path they are most likely to choose. "
"Understood! "
Gordon nodded, under the black-rimmed glasses are a pair of firm eyes, "I will do my best to guard the road to the narrow island, I will not let them pass so easily!" "
"Very well, then do it, everyone! "
Alfred clenched his fists. "Time is already not in our side. Hold on every minute and every second." "
Everyone left. Cyber didn't take off the black mask. He said in a low, muffled voice,
"I told you the news last night until today You only started to act in the evening, Alfred Old Master, your efficiency is too bad! "
"Alfred, Cyber is not to blame. "
Lucius sat next to him a little weary, took off his gold-rimmed eyes, rubbed his eyes,
"Falcone corroded the entire city's conquest department into a sieve , We have to spend a long time to distinguish who is a friend and who is an opponent, don’t you really think that the League of Shadows didn’t place themselves in the Gotham city government? Haven't you wondered why Crane has become the most famous local doctor in just 2 years? "
"God, I feel more and more that I am riding a ship that is about to sink. "
Cyber murmured maliciously, "Maybe I am now in the League of Shadows camp, maybe I can save a life. With such teammates, can we really win?" Look outside, they are still brightly lit preparing to carnival till dawn! "
"This is not their war. "
Battier, who has not spoken all the time, the spirited old fogey who only wore a training vest on this late autumn night, probably in his 50s, said, "Alfred never expects They can help, Mr. mysterious person, did you even ask how many mercenaries old Alfred got? "
"en?"
Cyber became interested in an instant. He turned his head and looked towards Alfred, who was sitting there resting. The latter noticed Cyber's gaze. He had 3 fingers in the depths. Cyber shook his eyes.
"300 people, the best kind we can hire! "
"Ha! "
Cyber stood up abruptly. He finally heard the good news. "I took back what I said. I finally found a trustworthy teammate, Alfred. If we win, you must be The biggest hero...Wait, who are those people? ”
Alfred followed Cyber's fingers and looked towards the window. There, an orange pickup truck similar to the old man’s old Pickup stopped at the front of Wayne Castle and walked out of it. Elderly gentlemen in black attire with a walking stick in their hands, and five or six other people in various costumes, they wandered into the castle and seemed to be blocked, but soon, the security at the door let them in.
"I am not very familiar with Gotham's high society, Alfred Old Master, have you met them? "
Cyber turned his head and looked towards old steward, the expression on the latter's face became difficult to look, he shook the head,
"Something is wrong! Shane, prepare your people! "
The mercenary leader grabbed the baseball cap from the table, put it on his head, and strode out. Cyber also took out his cell phone and dialed Kevin's phone. After 1 minute, the conversation went smoothly. Get up, and Cyber heard the girl’s soft voice and Kevin’s violent gasp,
"Wh...what's the matter? I’m very busy..."
The voice caught the eyes of Alfred and Lucius almost immediately. Looking at the weird eyes of the two Old Guys, Cyber’s face under the mask also became Embarrassed, but the mask was not removed.
He took a deep breath, suppressed his desire to growl, and said in a low voice,
"Go drive, fetch things, Kevin, the opportunity you want is here! "
"...good! "
There was a sound of jumping and jumping from the other side of the microphone. A few seconds later, Kevin's voice came again.
"Head, I'll pass right away!" "
On the other side, Bruce Wayne, who was standing boringly in the lobby, communicating with people whose names he didn’t even remember, felt bored after waves. In the great war will approach At that time, he had to be distracted to deal with these troublesome people, which made him feel helpless.
But his other level of identity was destined that he could not join the small meeting that was being held. He only Being able to stay here and play his playboy image well, life is already annoying enough. If you add another layer of identity that needs to be concealed, then life is really no fun.
Bruce will He drank the sweet and greasy wine in his hand, put the wine glass in his hand aside, and then the sweet voice of the maid rang behind him, "Wayne Young Master, here is one who hasn’t made an appointment. Visitor, he said he is your old friend. "
"oh?"
Wayne relieved his shoulders, he turned around, "My friend is very..."
He saw that Looking at his tall man with indifference, his beard was modified like a tiger's beard, ash-gray, spreading to his mouth, Bruce could not say the second half of the sentence, and the superb maid still In the introduction,
"He said his name is Ra's..."
"Ra's .El .Gul. "
Bruce put his left hand on the shoulder of the maid he had never seen before, and whispered, "Go down, and let Alfred prepare to "enter guests." "
The maid cast a wink at Wayne, but Wayne didn't notice her, instead she fixed her gaze on the silent tall man in front of her, so the maid could only helplessly turned away.
"no! You are not him! You are not Ra's El Goul! I killed him myself! "
Bruce stared at the tall guy, he whispered, next moment, another familiar voice sounded behind him,
"But Ra's. El. Gul is not Immortal? "
"Isn't his will surpassing reality? "
When Bruce Wayne heard this sound, his whole body trembled as if struck by lightning. He gritted his teeth and looked at the familiar and respectful silhouette behind him,
"Of course, the son of a well-known Gotham who went out in the middle of the night to go out for justice has dual identities. You shouldn't complain about the dual identities of an old friend. "
"Ducard! It's you! ! "
The old gentleman put down the cane in his hand and leaned it in front of him. His harrier-like eyes were placed on Bruce's body. His moustache was white, separated on both sides. His mouth is decorated like a real tiger's beard, which makes him look like a very majestic character.
"Call me Ra's. El. Goul, Bruce Wayne, my best dísciple! Are you happy to see me? "
