Chapter 420: Night Owl Returns
"So...you know it."
Nightwing shook his head with a complicated expression.
"So, what would you do if I did send a message to the crime syndicate?"
He was silent for a few seconds, then asked Eric again.
"You know the answer."
Eric did not answer directly.
He continued to dismantle the bomb. "The wires on this are much more complicated than ordinary bombs. Every time I cut off a relay, it can automatically reset."
Eric spit in annoyance.
"No! Enough is enough!"
Nightwing sadly forced a reluctant smile on his face, "There is only one last way, Batman!"
"That's when I die and you live."
He was ready to die, "Although I am Ye Xiao's adopted son, I never thought that the crime syndicate was right. I watched people die in front of me, took my last breath, and then haha. Laughing, sneering, smug...it shouldn't have happened."
"So...Batman, be your Robin, work together for the whole world, try to change it, make it better or not worse, that's what I'm here for. This is what I discovered after I entered this world, thank you!"
Nightwing's eyes gleamed. "Get out of here, Batman! You don't need to be buried here with me!"
"It's not the final stage yet, Dick!"
Eric put away his tools and looked into Nightwing's eyes, "There is one last way."
He took out a bottle of potion from his belt, "The potion extracted from the puffer fish can stop a person's heartbeat to the slowest one minute, and the heart beats once a minute to end the timer."
Eric, who had read comics in his previous life, certainly wasn't unprepared.
The moment he learned that Nightwing was kidnapped, he quickly contacted Bob to do such a thing.
After all, Nightwing was tied to such a bomb when he invaded the DC main world.
The always calm and calm Bruce Wayne panicked. If it wasn't for Lex Luthor's clear-headedness at the critical moment, I'm afraid that a whole bunch of people would have been caught by this bomb.
"...Why do you have such a thing on you?"
Yewing's expression relaxed a little, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he learned that he didn't need to die.
But then I wondered why Batman would carry such a thing.
"Not only do I have tetrodotoxin, but also adrenaline."
Eric took out a bottle of potion from his belt, "Something that can make your heartbeat return to a normal level."
"Forehead......?"
Nightwing black question mark face.
Did you already know I was going to be tied to this thing?
Are you Batman or a gypsy who can watch crystal balls?
Ignoring the mess in Nightwing's heart, Eric injected the potion into Nightwing's body, reducing his heartbeat.
"Next, your body will fall into a hypothermic state, and there may even be a brief shock, but it doesn't matter, the tetrodotoxin will not cause much damage to your body."
Eric comforted Nightwing, who was in a dazed state, and immediately began to defuse the bomb the moment the bomb's timer started to stop.
Fortunately, nothing happened in the middle, and the bomb was successfully defused.
Immediately after removal, adrenaline was injected into his skin to restore his heartbeat to normal.
Supporting the weak Nightwing, the three of them left the room together.
But at this time, Eric's silver coin suddenly vibrated.
He quickly took out the silver coin, which was the message from Starlight.
"Someone broke in."
Eric took the silver coin back and signaled the raven to leave here quickly.
"I...I think I heard someone coming."
Yewing is now weak in speaking. He is shirtless, wearing a pair of slacks and trousers, panting slightly, "It seems that someone is coming towards us, and I am familiar with this footstep."
As soon as Nightwing finished speaking, a man in black armor stepped out from the shadows of the corridor.
It was the night owl that Eric and Nightwing were familiar with.
Tatata!
Heavy footsteps echoed in the corridor.
Ye Xiao flipped his cloak and looked at the weak Yewing, "It's me, Richard!"
"I'm here for you!"
"I?"
Nightwing forced a smile, "We're not the same people anymore, sir. Besides, I'm going to stop you!"
"Stop me? Richard, that's not what you're supposed to do, you're my family, would you join another Batman camp for some nihilistic guilt? This shouldn't have happened to you."
Ye Xiao's voice is very magnetic, and it sounds sexier than Eric's deep hoarse voice.
But Nightwing was not charmed by Ye Xiao's voice, he shook his head, "I won't fight for the crime syndicate."
"yes?"
Ye Xiao stopped and looked at Dick with complicated eyes, "Maybe you guys can win, it doesn't matter to me anymore. My Gotham has vanished, and I have only you and Al in my family. Fred. That's all I care about!"
After all, he turned his attention to Eric.
"Chaos and disorder, this is the eternal theme of the world."
He took a step towards Eric, "What the crime syndicate does is magnify everything. The natural selection of the fittest may be applied to animal habits, but if applied to humans, humans will would be disgusted. Compassion and empathy, forcing them to rebel against this rule all the time."
"But to the earth is it not a humble animal?"
It looks like he's making his case, but Eric isn't going to argue with him.
"And as far as I'm concerned, you're just an intruder!"
Eric puts on the Shock Gloves and prepares to take on the most treacherous Batman in legend.
"That's a pity, it looks like we can't reach an agreement."
Ye Xiao shook his head regretfully.
Bang!
Eric struck first, and immediately threw a smoke bomb to the ground.
White smoke quickly filled the entire wide hall.
"Ho...!"
Coming out of the smoke, Eric's fist hit Ye Xiao fiercely.
Facing the smoke and Eric's attack, Ye Xiao stood expressionlessly.
When Eric's fist was a few centimeters away from his face, he stepped back slightly.
Grabbed Eric's fist!
The waist and abdomen exerted strength, and the whole person, like a bow and arrow ready to go, grabbed Eric's arm and threw him out.
With his flexible body, Eric adjusted his body in the air and landed safely on the ground.
The opponent's strength and speed are stronger than I imagined!
Eric quickly came to a conclusion.
With this kind of strength, even Gotham's Bruce Wayne couldn't get anything cheap in his hands.
He re-examined the opponent's strength.
Adjust your breathing and attack Ye Xiao again.
The fist ripped apart the air, made a crackling sound, and struck Ye Xiao's right side under the ribs.
Ye Xiao pressed down on his elbow to block Eric's fist, and at the same time hit his upper knee and hit Eric's chin.
Bang!
The two split as soon as they touched each other, and each received a punch from the other.
