Chapter 31 31. Gordon’s heart skipped a beat
"Director, the guards and guards of Black Gate Prison have already withdrawn. They have formed a temporary defense line behind us to defend against possible attacks on the outside of the prison!"
The SWAT commander of the Gotham Police Department was fully armed and reported the current situation to Director Gordon, who was wearing a body armor. Old Gordon, who had been a soldier and performed dangerous missions in his early years, seemed to have regained his youthful state. He took an automatic rifle from his colleague and said to the SWAT commander:
"What about air power? Are three helicopters enough?"
"That should be enough."
The commander said:
"This Black Gate Prison was designed with the issue of prison robbery in mind. When all the preparation facilities are opened, the enemy will not be able to get through the first gate unless they use military-grade firepower.
We have also installed detectors near the sewers, and we will detect any infiltrators as soon as possible. ”
"Very good!"
The director was slightly relieved.
He stood on the command vehicle and looked around the Black Gate Prison, which was under complete martial law. He found no obvious loopholes. He then raised his watch to check the time and then personally led a team of SWAT into the prison.
Now that we know that the prison robber is here for Penguin, we can rest assured only if he personally guards Penguin's cell.
At the same time, high above the Black Gate Prison at night, the flying motorcycle driven by Mason also landed quietly. In a remote area where it was not easy to be missed, the young man and the Kite Man jumped out of the car and threw the motorcycle back into their mobile phones. box.
He turned around and threw a black earphone to the kite man who was preparing, and said:
"Wait until the Assassin League people mess up this place before taking off. You guard the entrance and exit of the prison. After the prison robbery begins, whoever comes out will be killed!
Remember to put on this pair of headphones, I made them myself, and they only have the frequency band for the two of us. ”
Lv2 engineering can easily transform a pair of headphones, after all, the following facts are not suitable to be told in public on the Bat Network.
"I'll try my best, boss."
Kite Man carried his gun on his body with a special strap and started to activate the swarm mode of flying engineering bombs. He looked at the prison in the dark night before him and said:
"I can't block it for too long by myself. After all, the ammunition my jetpack can carry is limited."
"Don't worry."
Mason put the invisibility cloak on his body, picked up the suitcase, and said to his younger brother:
"After the news about the appearance of large-scale zombies is sent out, the Bat Fighter will definitely come to support. At that time, your mission will be completed. Remember to take your camera and walk around a few times. I received news that someone will be here tonight. 'Grave Robbery' nearby.
It’s best to take photos. ”
"Huh?"
The kite man who was putting the cut "bulletproof flight suit" on his body was stunned. He looked at the boss who disappeared in front of him, scratched his head and said:
"Are there any ancient buildings around here? Who came here to rob the tomb? The boss is so serious and joking."
But Mason wasn't kidding.
If Charles could have taken a photo of Kang doing bad things near Blackgate Prison when the zombie crisis broke out, he would have saved himself a lot of trouble in the end.
With the help of the invisibility cloak, Mason easily entered the interior of the heavily fortified Black Gate Prison.
He didn't doubt the determination of the Gotham police tonight. Even though this organization was rotten, Gordon brought them here and once the war started, they had to be brave for their lives.
Mason just felt like the police didn't seem to realize the seriousness of the problem.
Although he couldn't guess how the Assassin League planned to break into Blackgate Prison, judging from the previous situation where the black-clad killers had blatantly used heavy firepower to chase him in the city, their offensive would definitely far exceed the Gotham police's expectations.
This is indeed the case.
Five minutes after Mason was in position, the Bat-earphones inserted into his ears sounded a warning, and Barbara Gordon warned in a rushed tone:
"A transport plane taking off from Gotham Airport suddenly turned back and flew towards Blackgate Prison. The estimated arrival time is one minute, where the Assassins will be airborne.
There are suspected to be heavy weapons on the plane!
Dad!
Evacuate the ground quickly! Take cover! ”
Mason, who was hiding in an office in Blackgate Prison, immediately saw several sergeants rushing out of the prison, but a few seconds later, Kite Man's somewhat shocked voice also sounded in the improvised bat communication network:
"Hey! Can you hear me? Is this what this thing is used for? Forget it, never mind. There's a mole within the Gotham Police! I saw those guys outside attacking their people.
There are people in SWAT who are shooting randomly!
Damn it, that infantry tank is shooting at its own people, and there's chaos outside!
There was something in the sky, and the transport plane fell.
etc!
It opens the hatch."
What happened next no longer required Kite Man to do "battlefield live broadcast". Even if Mason was hiding inside the prison, he could still hear the roar of some kind of rapid-fire terrorist weapon in the air with at least 6,000 rounds per minute.
The flying bullets hitting the ground caused vibrations and ear-piercing explosions, making it easy to imagine what a hellish scene it was outside the prison at this time.
The terrifying neighing even caused chaos within the prison.
"The League of Assassins assembled a civilian version of the gunship? How creative!"
Mason shook his head and saw chaos inside and outside the prison because of this ingenious raid. The first helicopter in the Gotham Police Department was shot down on the top of the prison and exploded and burned, while the black-clad killers of the Assassin League began to descend in the air. At the same time, he also carried the box and started taking action.
"Bang"
A running policeman was hit on the back of the head by a swung gun butt. He fell to the ground while still running wildly. Mason bent down and took out a bunch of keys from his belt, and took a step forward to open it. The nearest cage in front of you.
The chaos outside the prison had already alarmed the prisoners inside. The moment the cage was opened, a ferocious big man in an orange prison uniform was ready to rush out and "do something".
It is necessary to introduce the strange place of Blackgate Prison here.
This place is not only the highest-security prison for serious criminals in Gotham City, but also a prison implemented by prosecutor Harvey Dent, who was once known as the "Gotham Light Knight" before he became the criminal gangster "Two-Face". The product of a special act of the Ministry.
The criminals who can be imprisoned here are all truly vicious elements who are not allowed to be paroled for at least ten years.
In other words, it is impossible for the prisoners in this prison to be unjustly accused. Kite Man was able to be imprisoned here after robbing the bakery because of his "luck" from his former boss, the clown.
Blackgate Prison and Arkham Asylum are the veritable "crouching dragons and phoenixes" of Gotham City's criminal world. Any guy picked from these two places is a "strong man" who can get VIP treatment in the Nine Hells.
Therefore, when facing the bald man in front of him, Mason had no psychological barriers whatsoever.
Under the cover of the invisibility cloak, he stood at the door, raised his hand cannon and pulled the trigger when the guy approached.
With a bang, the bald man's legs exploded and he fell to the ground. As he screamed with blood splattering everywhere, he saw a tall, thin young man wearing a gray windbreaker suddenly appear as if by magic.
The guy squatted on the ground and opened a shabby black suitcase, and raised his head and gave him a gentle smile.
"Damn yellow monkey!"
The prisoner who was shot suddenly roared angrily.
Mason shrugged, not getting angry because of the racially charged insult. After all, people were dying, so let him have fun.
He flipped the switch on the suitcase's traceless extension spell, then picked up Old K's voodoo birdcage and fished it out.
When the black birdcage, which looked like an ornament, was taken out of the box, there was already a tiger cat inside that meowed wildly after smelling the smell of blood.
Professor McGonagall was blown into two pieces by a bomb before. Because of her zombie attributes, she managed to survive. Mason threw the broken Resurrection Stone into the wound. Under the influence of the Deathly Hallows, she has now recovered as before.
Not only has the injured body been healed, but even the horrific scars and disgusting scars on its fur have been removed, making this zombie cat look no different from an ordinary tiger cat at a glance.
Except for those scarlet eyes and the shriveled, hoarse cry that could scare adults to piss at night.
It stared intently at the big man lying on the ground in front of it, yelling and cursing. The smell of fresh flesh and blood made it angrily move around in the birdcage, constantly scratching the cage with its alienated claws filled with zombie toxins.
Mason placed the birdcage on the ground and enlarged it to normal size, then held the door of the birdcage.
He comforted:
"I know you are hungry. There is no need to restrain your minions. Everyone here who can be scratched by you deserves to die. What they need is not a cage, but a bullet to free themselves from the dark life.
Everyone here is terminally ill.
You little cutie is the medicine I prescribe for their bad lives.
Go ahead.
Enjoy the sinful delicacy. ”
"Ka"
The door of the birdcage was opened, and the zombie cat Mag turned into a bolt of lightning and pounced on the villain in front of him with a shrill roar. The latter waved his arms and tried to block it, but he soon screamed.
Mason put away the birdcage without looking at him, turned around and left with the box. Then he threw the knocked-out policeman into the utility room and locked the door. Then he opened the entire row of cages in the prison area while invisible.
The prisoners were all dumbfounded.
They could see no one and could only hear the sound of the door lock opening.
But this group of bad guys didn't want to miss this opportunity to run for freedom, so they all ran out without hesitation, only to find that the heavy iron door leaving the prison area was still locked.
Standing behind this door, Mason, wearing an invisibility cloak, listened expressionlessly to the guys who were dancing and shouting wildly. There was no special fluctuation in his eyes.
He opened those cages.
But those who are truly repentant in prison will most likely not come out. Therefore, those who feel pain for their past actions and seek repentance will also survive the impending disaster.
It's like an invisible line, and anyone who crosses it will die.
When Mason turned to leave, shrill cat howls erupted along with the roar of the crowd in the prison area where there were nearly two hundred prisoners. Together with the eruption, there was the gradually rising smell of blood and a few cell doors being reopened. The sound of locking up.
Well, Miss McGonagall will definitely have a great time eating at this sinful and withering feast tonight.
——
"Boom"
Violent explosions kept ringing on the walls of Black Gate Prison, which was caused by armed personnel from outside bombarding the reinforced walls with heavy firepower.
The cannons in the sky outside no longer roared, probably because the assassins from the League of Assassins had completed their airborne landing and took control of the situation.
Inside the prison, when the policemen trapped here raised their heads, they could see the burning wreckage of the helicopter on the roof, like a pillar of fire in the dark night, highlighting the ominousness of tonight.
"Run, Gordon, while you still can."
Penguin Oswald Cobblepot, wearing prison uniform, was guarded by ten heavily armed SWAT policemen, with seven guns pointed at him.
It only takes one bullet to kill this short, fat guy right here.
But he, who was supposed to be a prisoner, now sat arrogantly on his chair with a posture of taking control of the whole situation. Although his hands were still shackled, his face did not have any loneliness that a prisoner should have, but instead was full of a look of loneliness. Relaxed and proud expression.
Director Gordon was sitting opposite him, holding a gun in his hand and staring at him.
Penguin didn't care.
He waved his hand and prepared to have a good talk with Gordon, but the two missing fingers on his left hand made this supposedly intimidating gesture a little comical.
"Unlock my handcuffs, Gordon, and I'll make sure you and your men get out of this prison alive tonight."
Oswald listened slowly to the sound of gunshots getting closer and closer. He grinned, as if he had returned to the posture of the all-powerful gangster.
He said:
"There's nothing unspeakable between us, Gordon, and you know that unlike the rest of the city, I even have an unspoken agreement with that bat.
I just want to make money, unlike those crazy people who want to change things.
You see, Batman sent me to Blackgate instead of Arkham. That's it. Gordon, tonight's episode has a decent ending.
But if you delay this matter any longer, it will be difficult to end it. ”
The stubborn chief didn't say a word, but several police chiefs beside him began to exchange glances.
A few seconds later, several grenades exploded in the corridor near Oswald's prison area, blowing the heavy black iron door on the spot, and then the heavily armed killers in black filed in.
Each of them wore black body armor, carried a gun and carried a knife on his back, and had a uniform-style helmet with only one pair of eyes exposed.
Their actions were swift and indifferent. Behind them were police officers and even prisoners blocking their progress, and thick smoke echoed.
This is elite!
Unlike the black-clad killers who were chasing Mason, these black-clad warriors who broke into Blackgate Prison with crisp armed raids were the real backbone of the Assassin's League.
While this team entered Penguin's cell, five other action teams had entered other cells of Blackgate Prison. They wanted to release those prisoners and form a team that could set off a large-scale riot in Gotham. .
Just like planning ahead.
But this is not the end.
This riot was just a prelude to larger actions.
They need the financial and personal support of Penguin, a local boss, so Oswald cannot spend the rest of his time leisurely in prison.
"Stop!"
Director Gordon grabbed the Penguin, put his pistol against the guy's head, and shouted to the indifferent black warriors in front of him:
"Otherwise I will kill him!"
"Maybe you should just do it, Gordon."
The kidnapped Penguin was not frightened at all, and his tone of voice did not even change.
He grinned and joked:
"When you threaten others, you should take action directly. Saying a lot of words will only make you appear weak and guilty, especially when friends like me are ruthless people.
Let me tell you a secret, Gordon.
Even if I die, they can save me.
I've seen it with my own eyes.
You have lost!
Now, be decent. ”
"Ka"
The answer to Penguin's persuasion to surrender was the hammer that was pulled up by Gordon's finger. The director's finger was already on the trigger. The more than thirty black warriors in front of him also stopped under the captain's instructions.
The confrontation inside and outside the cage made the remaining policemen dare not breathe. Just as the smell of gunpowder became stronger and stronger, a strange roar broke the silence.
Like some kind of large dog growling in the open.
But the sound was so dry and shrill that it made people's hearts tremble. Along with the barking, there were screams that were getting closer and closer.
Penguin was stunned.
The policemen were stunned.
The black warriors were also stunned.
Director Gordon suddenly felt a thump in his heart, and an ominous premonition surged into his heart. Then, he heard Mason Cooper's uncontrollable scream from the Bat headphones plugged into his ears.
The boy seemed to have seen something terrifying and shouted with an uncontrollable scream:
"Gordon! Run! There's a monster coming out of the prison!"
Then, the next second, Gordon and others in the cell saw the terrifying black figure that was chewing a half-human figure rushing towards it. Oh my God! Is this where the gates of hell open? What the hell is this?
