Chapter 95 The Eternal Birdcage
I repeat, Qin Su hates prophecies, but he is very interested in the person who made this prophecy.
"Can you tell me who made this prophecy?"
The Penguin shook the red wine glass, looked at the psychedelic liquid in the glass, and drank it in one gulp: "Who knows, suddenly one day this statement spread among the rebels, and the three of us thought it was the other party who came up with it to cheer us up. The strategy of the human heart seems to be true now.”
The Bright Knight did not touch the wine glass. He adhered to the rigidity of the former prosecutor: "It is also possible that Night Owl heard about this and deliberately sent such a person to play with us. Penguin, I still think it is a bit too much for you to bring people down casually. Reckless.”
Qin Su nodded in agreement, because this really seemed like something Ye Xiao would do: "But to be fair, based on my observations during the time I came in, I can't see the people outside who look like they're having fun. There is no threat to the criminal syndicate from the rebels"
White Mask sighed and said to the Bright Knight: "I just said this method won't work."
The Bright Knight said with a straight face: "If you didn't use masks to suppress their despair, the rebel army would have ceased to exist."
This short sentence revealed a huge amount of information. Qin Su said why he felt that the people outside were joking, warm and hospitable, not like Gotham people at all. It turned out that they were all mentally interfered by the white mask.
Since the beginning of the conversation, Bai Mask has been standing in the middle and Xini. Unexpectedly, he is the most ruthless person in the team.
Qin Su touched his head. It was good. The magic spell carved by the raven was still there.
When the Penguin discovered his origin, Qin Su admitted that it was his negligence. He did not expect that a beggar on the street would have such strong insight, let alone that the beggar would be the Penguin.
But now that he had been discovered, Qin Su stopped pretending and said straight to the point: "I do come from another world, and I have only arrived not long ago. The information I have learned is out of touch with the current situation. I hope you can tell me some of the past." What happened.”
The three of them looked at each other, and the white mask pointed at his own mask: "I have to always recall the good memories and not the tragedies that happened in the past, otherwise the rebels will be infected by my emotions and collapse."
White Mask withdrew from the conversation because of his ability, while Penguin held the wine bottle and blew on it. After blowing, he lay down on the table.
So Qin Su looked at the Knight of Light: "I'll help you."
The Bright Knight pressed his temples: "One by one, they are as troublesome as the leader... Forget it, I will be responsible for explaining, but don't expect to hear any inside information, what I said are all public facts. .”
All this started five years ago...
Criminal Syndicate, an evil alliance of criminals, there are 7 of them, the evil Kryptonian Superman, the King of Gotham Night Owl, Super Queen Lois, the speedster Johnny Quick, the evil scientist Deathstorm, and the panic weapon Power Ring , triple agent Atomic Girl.
There is also the King of the Sea, he can talk to the fish, talk! (bgm)
The Criminal Syndicate is the most troublesome superpower criminal in all countries in the world, but despite this, they have not been able to challenge the rules of the world. After all, if they are really desperate, human beings can still have an eight-hundred-fire firecracker to destroy them all.
Evil suppresses justice, but the world is still running, and heroes of justice still exist. They are dormant in the dark, always waiting for the opportunity to wipe out the criminal syndicate.
Until that day, the Counter-Monitor arrives.
In just one encounter, the Criminal Syndicate was defeated. It was an enemy that was not on the same level of power as them. Even the power that Superpower was most proud of was still not worth mentioning in front of the Anti-Monitor.
"After the initial defeat, half of the world was devoured by the Anti-Monitors. Countries around the world used all their troops to wipe out the Anti-Monitors with just a wave of their hands." Harvey recounted a piece of history and a tragedy, but he was neither happy nor sad.
Even though he was just listening to Harvey's narration, Qin Su could also hear the despair contained in it. Just like Darkseid came to the earth for the first time, humans could only tremble in front of this world conqueror. Fortunately, they had Justice League.
So why does Gotham still exist now?
Harvey gave the answer: "It was the Criminal Syndicate. Although they didn't want to admit it, they were the ones who defeated the Anti-Monitor. After regrouping, they saved the world."
……
In the Gotham Clock Tower, an owl squats on the hands, peeking in from the gap in the clock dial. A figure that looks like Batman stands inside, looking at the three-dimensional projection of the earth, frowning, as if he is worried about something, and The owl mask blocked all changes in his expression.
"After the first defeat, I summarized the reasons for the defeat. In fact, the Anti-Monitor is not invincible. As long as the Criminal Syndicate can unite as one, work with one heart and one mind, and gather all its forces at one point, there is a high probability of defeating the Anti-Monitor. ”
But there is a problem. It is a false proposition to expect the Criminal Syndicate, a group of guys with different agendas, to unite. Therefore, Night Owl had to come up with his backup plan, which was originally used to target the members of the Criminal Syndicate.
"I summoned all the members of the Criminal Syndicate and gave the four talismans to four of them. With the blessing of the talismans, we failed to defeat the Anti-Monitor, but were seriously injured and defeated him.
And we all know that one day, the Anti-Monitor will come back, but some people have forgotten this threat without realizing it. ”
Night Owl opened two video files, one was a metropolis with noisy gongs and drums, and the other was a central city with lights and colorful lights.
Speedmaster was sitting on a human-pulled Kryptonite carriage, enjoying the unintentional praise of the people around him. Johnny Quick was cutting the ribbon for the Johnny Amusement Park named after him by the people of Midtown.
"I didn't give you the spell to make you fall for yourself, especially you, Johnny Quick."
Night Owl looked at Johnny Quick, who was whistling in the communication screen: "You lost the rabbit charm and lost the ability to run faster than light, and we lost a chance to start over again. You still have fun. ”
Night Owl's words undoubtedly hit Johnny Quick's pain point. After losing the rabbit charm, his status in the Syndicate plummeted, so he established a self-centered management system in Midtown.
He gritted his teeth and said: "Night Owl, don't mention this matter again! That thief, the female snitch! Sooner or later I will skin her and remove her bones!"
Unlike Johnny Quick, who could only bow his head and bear the ridicule of Night Owl, Speedmaster did not give Night Owl face: "Night Owl, pay attention to the tone of your words. I, Karl El, am the leader of the Criminal Syndicate."< br>
Speedmaster puffed up his chest, revealing the U on his chest...no, it was the horns logo.
"Listen, Night Owl, I admit that the Anti-Monitor is a threat, but I didn't waste my time and saw the kryptonite carriage in the video. You weak earthlings can only become stronger through exercise and technology. Same, as long as I sit inside, I can continue to get stronger.
Five years have passed, and I have been getting stronger. Coupled with the strengthening of the spell, if the Anti-Monitor is still at the same level as five years ago, I can defeat him alone! ”
Night Owl was disgusted with Speedmaster's arrogance. He simply threatened: "Don't forget, I gave you the talismans. I also warned you that I am not their original owner. I am just a discoverer. If one day The original owner of the talisman came to visit, and I hope you can be as arrogant as you are now."
When it came to the original owner of the talisman, Super Master also kept his mouth shut. Just because he knew how powerful the talisman was, he also understood how terrifying the original owner of the talisman was.
This is the second potential threat.
Night Owl regained control of the rhythm of the conversation: "And we are currently staying in different cities. If the Anti-Monitor comes to attack Atlantis, we will be too late to support the Sea Overlord."
Sea Overlord was very depressed. How could he be used as an example and no one objected? Was he so unpopular in the Syndicate?
The Super Queen observed the reactions of the members, looked at Ye Xiao, and brought up the topic at the right time: "Ye Xiao, how is the backup plan you proposed five years ago going? The worst case scenario is really going to happen. We cannot be buried with these lowly slaves.”
The lenses on the Night Owl mask flashed: "This is exactly why I called you on a video call."
Johnny Quick popped up again: "Is there any news about Atomic Girl? Tell me, Nite Owl, how is she doing in another world? I miss my baby so much!"
Night Owl said indifferently: "Don't interrupt me, Johnny Quick...it was not Atomic Girl or Alfred who brought the news."
He called up a surveillance clip: "This is the footage recorded by the surveillance camera I placed in Crime Alley."
The people present were not mortals. There was no need to slow down the scene, and they all saw the figures flashing past in the alleyway.
"I only discovered the anomaly in the picture two days ago. If it weren't for the special nature of Crime Alley, I wouldn't have checked the surveillance cameras myself. There are too many surveillance cameras in Gotham.
I took a trip to Crime Alley afterwards, where I detected trace amounts of Speed Force residue. ”
"It's that thief! Reverse Flash!" Johnny Quick was excited again.
"Unfortunately, not really," Ye Xiao said with a slight curve at the corner of his mouth, "But this person is much more valuable to us than her."
Nite Owl looked at the table and saw the winding pipes. This was a map of Gotham's sewers, and there were even markings on it.
【Iceberg Restaurant】
"I have left the rebel flag untouched just so that it can play this role now."
The night owl gathered his cloak,
"Heroes will always be called together by justice under the same banner, just to their advantage, and I took advantage of this. If there is a visitor from another universe visiting, in order to collect intelligence, he will definitely go here.
The underground birdcage I set up. "(End of Chapter)
