Chapter 918 The Meaning of Life (a 10,000-word chapter, please subscribe)
How terrifying is the impact and destruction of a powerful divine power unleashed with all its strength?
Just look at Domière’s tragic situation at this moment.
He was almost hit by a beam of light falling from the sky directly into the ground more than a hundred kilometers deep, and then was spurted out by the huge pressure from the ground together with magma. There was not an inch of intact skin and skin on his body. Muscles, and even silver-white bones exposed in some places.
If it were not for the blessing of the plane will of the Seventh Heaven Mountain, if it were replaced by other outer planes or material planes, the whole person would have completely disappeared by now.
You must know that the divine impact released by powerful divine power has a high probability of directly shattering planets without additional power protection in one blow, or destroying stars in the galaxy.
Super bombs such as nuclear bombs and cyclone torpedoes, which are difficult to break even stars, can only be regarded as "small toys" at best compared with the former.
If Seventh Heaven Mountain is not an outer plane and has infinite space, just this one blow can penetrate the earth under your feet and cause it to burst open on the spot.
As the initiator of this shocking scene, the incarnation of Talona with an angry face slowly descended from the sky to the ground in full view of the public, dragging Domière's burned buttocks. His hair lifted him up, and his eyes showed naked and undisguised murderous intent.
You must know that although her camp has shifted from evil to neutral, and she is no longer as keen on spreading plague, fear and death as before, her original character of vengeance has not changed much.
Especially this son of God, whom she had high hopes for, she had always carefully cared for him from the beginning of his conception, for fear of any unexpected situation.
But now, this newborn little guy was almost killed by members of the Seven Heavenly Fiery Association. How could Talona accept this?
So she has made up her mind to kill Domiair even if she wants to become an enemy of the entire Seventh Heaven Mountain. She will use the head of one of the top leaders of the Archon Protoss to declare to the entire universe that anyone who dares to attack her What does it mean for a child to take action.
Soon, as the terrifying divine power began to gather in the other hand, Domière, who was rapidly repairing himself under the blessing of the will of the plane, smelled the breath of death.
"Wait! You can't kill him!"
Seeing that his companions were in danger, Ils'or did not care about maintaining the mystery of his prophet, and immediately spread his wings and flew close to stop him loudly.
“Give me a reason not to kill him!”
Talona turned her head and stared at the man in a blue robe with pearls from head to toe with hostile eyes. and leader of the Archons with silver threads and magical runes.
Different from other members of the Seven Martyrs of Heaven who always have a posture of being irreconcilable with evil, Ils Or is a typical wise man.
The third level of its rule is dotted with a large number of libraries, recording ancient secrets about the birth of good, evil, chaos, and order in this universe.
Therefore, he always gives people a serious, serious and wise feeling. Even when facing enemies, he rarely gets angry and always remains calm and rational. He is the best choice for handling various diplomatic negotiations.
At least ILS Orr knows when to compromise and when to give in, instead of just fighting hard and wasting his strength in an unwinnable war.
Especially when facing an angry and powerful goddess of power, the most important thing is to calm her emotions and save Domière's life.
Otherwise, once the lord of the second level dies, there will be only five people left in the Seven Lies of Heaven, and this level will quickly fall under the fierce offensive of the devil army.
“Great goddess of natural cycles, please forgive Domière for his impulsiveness and recklessness.
After all, it was your heir who first caused huge damage to our troops.
Thousands of Archon Protoss were devoured in an instant.
So when he is extremely sad, he will inevitably take some drastic actions.
I would like to offer you my most sincere apology.
What's more, you are a neutral god of nature. You shouldn't want to see this war between good and evil completely unbalanced, right?
If you kill Domière now you're helping evil fight good.
This is not conducive to expanding your influence in the neutral natural pantheon. ”
ILS Orr carefully explained the stakes, and at the same time, he did not forget to remind the other party that it was your children who attacked the Archon Protoss army first, and our people only took drastic actions out of desperation. .
This habit of being prescient undoubtedly reflects his characteristics as a lawful good camp.
But at the same time, he is not as stubborn and unflexible as Domière. , clearly realized that the current situation was not good for oneself, so he did not make any excessive demands, but simply wanted to end this unnecessary conflict.
After all, the Seventh Heaven Mountain has no opposition in ideas or positions to the natural gods of the neutral camp.
It is not a wise move to provoke a powerful goddess of nature for no reason.
"Hmph! Do you think that with these boring words, you can let me spare this fool who dares to hurt my child?"
Talona sneered contemptuously, obviously not Take the Seven Lies of Heaven into your eyes.
Not to mention the fact that they are losing ground and unable to protect themselves under the attack of the evil army. Even at their peak, their strength in the outer plane of the entire universe could only be ranked at a medium level.
It can neither be compared in quantity with the countless demon lords in the Abyss, nor can it be compared in quality with the great devils in Baator Hell who can continuously squeeze energy from the soul.
To be precise, their power comes entirely from the blessing of the plane will of the Seventh Heaven Mountain, and from the belief in order and kindness of those mortals in the material plane.
Once you leave this plane, your strength will immediately drop significantly, and you may not be able to compare to the God of Blazing Sky.
Everyone with some common sense knows that even in a society without war or famine, with relatively sufficient material supplies, a sound legal system, and a relatively high corruption index, there are very few ordinary people who can do this. And little.
What's more, war, famine, plunder, and the greed, privilege, and corruption of the ruling class are the normal conditions of most mortal societies.
This also means that overall, the proportion of people who believe in lawful goodness and insist on practicing it throughout their lives must be very low, and there are even fewer souls who are qualified to be reincarnated in the Seventh Heaven Mountain after death.
The strength of the outer plane is determined by the mortals in the material plane.
So even though the Seventh Heaven Mountain participated in provoking a bloody battle between demons and demons, and then stood aside and silently accumulated strength, after tens of millions of years, it still ranks at the bottom of many outer planes in terms of strength.
In the eyes of gods who are not in the good camp, the so-called Seven Spirits of Heaven are nothing more than a small group created by the Archon Protoss.
In addition to having some prestige and influence among the good camp in the upper plane, it is not ranked at all in the entire universe.
Whether it was the demons who once caused a war that swept across the universe, or the demons who fought back and forth with the demons in bloody battles, or the legion of constructs and creations that represented the ultimate order in the mechanical realm, and the Slaa from the Sea of Chaos. The toad lords can press them to the ground and rub them.
Not to mention the inner plane elements that are the divine needle of this universe.
“Then what do you want?”
Seeing that the persuasion was ineffective, ILS Orr finally realized that today’s matter might be much more troublesome than he imagined.
"It's very simple, it's up to my child to decide. If he is willing to let Domière go, then I will naturally not pursue him anymore, but if it's the other way around, I can only blame him for seeking death."< br>
After saying that, Talona ignored the other person's shocked and angry face, immediately put on a doting expression, smiled and waved to the young man behind her: "Come here, my baby, come to mother. . Don’t be afraid, no one can hurt you even with me.”
“…”
The young man tilted his head and seemed to be thinking about something, but did not make any response. , but continued to stand there in a daze.
He seemed so confused and unusually unresponsive to stimuli from the people and environment around him.
This situation undoubtedly made Talona feel very strange.
Because as a mother, she knew very well that what she gave birth to was not just an ordinary son of God with some divinity and power, but a life with extraordinary power and cognition.
If the planeswalker spark had not replaced the divine spark, then this child should have been a complete god from the moment he was born.
This is why she notified the entire church in advance.
If it is a god, it requires believers and faith to maintain it. A new god like this without any foundation is usually helped by its father or mother who is a god.
This is most obvious in the elven pantheon.
All of Corellon's children basically followed this process after they were born. They first selected a few of their own pastors to help establish the church, and then slowly separated them to run independently.
But unfortunately, Talona's work was in vain.
Now she just wants to find out what this child is and what his parents represent in his perception.
After being silent for a long time, the mouthless boy suddenly asked a strange question without any warning: "What is the meaning of living?"
In an instant!
Everyone's expressions changed, including Yilsou'er and several big devils around him.
Because they do not regard this question as a child's curiosity and confusion about the meaning of life, but as a quasi-divine power that represents the abstract concept of death asking why those living beings do not embrace death.
Whenever a wrong answer leads to the answer that life is meaningless, he will immediately try to kill every living person he encounters.
Because for this extremely dangerous young man, death is the final and eternal destination of all life, which is determined by the power of death and the nature of his divine power.
For a moment, no one dared to answer casually except for a slight gasp.
Even Talona, a mother, began to feel a little headache. She opened her mouth several times to say something, but in the end she swallowed it back.
"Why don't you ask your father? I think he must have the answer you want."
Just when others were at a loss, the Lord of Hell was still there Smodeers stepped up to the rescue.
To be precise, he passed the blame to Zuo Si, who was enjoying a short vacation in the Calimport Palace in Faerûn.
After all, this god-like power with the power of "abstract death concept" is the descendant of Zuo Si, and is even a planeswalker who ignited a spark. From any perspective, Zuo Si has taught responsibilities and obligations.
Of course, there is also an implicit reason for this, that is, Asmodeus is very unhappy with the ninth-level arms group selling a large number of advanced weapons and equipment to enemies in the upper planes, and he does not dare to turn against him openly. I can only get a little revenge through such little tricks.
"Father?"
The boy's white pupils showed obvious signs of dilation, and then he nodded thoughtfully. Before the people around him could react to what happened, his whole body Instantly disappeared without a trace.
"Damn it! Come back! You can't go now!"
Seeing her son running away again, Talona was obviously anxious this time, and she dropped Domière in her hand and chased after her. Go up.
Because she deliberately did not notify Zuo Si at the first time before, just to set aside some time alone with the child so that the little guy could get closer to her.
But who would have thought to just play it off?
Now I can’t even control it.
Because in the face of Planeswalker Spark's unreasonably powerful ability to teleport across time and space, mere divine power cannot cause even the slightest obstacle.
Seeing that the two spoilers had left, Asmodeus immediately said meaningfully to the two leaders of the Archon Protoss: "Domiel, Ilsor, let us continue this fight. It’s an unfinished war. As long as we defeat you, the second level of the Seventh Heaven Mountain will be completely opened, and no force can stop us from entering.”
"Are you sure you want to continue fighting? After losing so many legions?"
ILS Or obviously wants a temporary truce so that his army can have time to digest the previous war experience.
Unfortunately, the cunning and experienced Asmodeus obviously would not give the enemy any chance to breathe, so he smiled and made an attack gesture.
In a blink of an eye!
The devils' long-range firepower projection position once again sounded a deafening roar.
After hearing this, ILS Orr immediately returned to his position and set up a huge magic defense to resist the fierce fire coverage.
Domière also teleported back and gave orders in an orderly manner to organize the army to resist the devil's attack.
The briefly suspended battle between the two sides finally started in full force.
Just when the Archon Protoss felt that they could perform better on the battlefield this time, and even completely withstand the myth that the Devil Legion was invincible, the Lord of Hell showed a creepy sneer, He ordered without looking back: "It's time to take out that weapon and open the eyes of the Seven Lies of Heaven."
"Which one?"
Gracia blinked in confusion.
On this occasion, she was the only daughter who dared to speak to Asmodeus in such a casual tone.
"Haha, don't worry, you will see it soon."
The Lord of Hell pretended to smile mysteriously, then stopped talking and just waited silently.
As for Gracia and other hell lords and big devils, they turned around and looked behind.
In about ten minutes, they saw a behemoth that was more amazing than any cannon they had ever seen.
Even the main guns on Zuo Si's fleet pale in comparison.
"This...could this also be a product of the Ninth Level Arms Group? Why haven't I seen it on the sales list?"
Gracia's voice was obviously laced with emotion. With a slight tremor.
It’s just that the emotion represented by this trembling is not fear, but excitement and excitement.
Asmodeus responded casually: "Because it is specially customized and represents the highest technological crystallization of the entire ninth level and even New Phyrexia. Open your eyes and take a good look. This is the real thing." The true strength of Sri Lanka's arms production capabilities."
"Great Lord of Hell, do you want to start charging?" A hell demon kneeled on one knee and asked with a grin.
Asmodeus nodded without thinking: "Of course! Remember to aim, it would be best if you can directly kill the two members of the Seven Heavens. Because if they all die here, We should be able to see Zafkiel himself next time."
"As you wish!"
The Hell Fiend quickly stood up and activated after Da Dao's affirmative reply. the console located at the rear.
In a blink of an eye!
The running tube of this super cannon lit up with dense silver lines, and at the same time thousands of runes began to shine with bright and dazzling light.
Then astonishing energy began to pour into it, continuously gathering and compressing in the thick and long barrel. The terrifying power made all the hell lords including Gracia feel numb. .
Because they are very sure that when this super cannon is fully charged, it will definitely kill them with one shot, and there will be absolutely no chance of survival.
In less than a minute, the energy within a radius of thousands of kilometers was completely drained.
The most typical example is that all magic protection, spell-like abilities and all magic items on the battlefield are ineffective.
Those artillery shells and rays that rely entirely on technology can begin to fall directly on the enemy's rear positions, causing astonishing damage.
Even the golden light shooting down from the sky seemed to be gathered together by some invisible force and injected into the lines of shining silver light on the surface of the cannon.
Such a terrifying momentum is naturally impossible to hide from the Akon Protoss on the opposite side.
Ils Or, who has the power of prophecy, changed his face drastically, as if he had seen the future that was about to happen. He did not care about maintaining his image of a mature and steady wise man, and shouted like a madman: "Don't fight. Run! Get out of here! Otherwise you will die..."
Before he could finish his words, the white light of destruction descended.
No fire!
No explosion!
There are no bloody scenes!
Everything that this white light passed by disappeared!
It was as if an eraser had wiped them off the canvas, even Domière.
Not to mention the Archon Protoss who lost one of their top commanders were dumbfounded, the devils were also dumbfounded.
They couldn't believe that the long-range weapon that had always been used as an auxiliary weapon had such terrifying power that it could be used to kill gods.
Gudong!
Gracia swallowed uncontrollably, her eyes showing shock and disbelief.
brutal!
Too cruel!
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't have believed that a weapon that anyone could control could actually do this.
Similarly, she also understood why her father had no intention of really falling out with Zuo Si from beginning to end, even though the latter had threatened the absolute authority of the Lord of Hell.
Compared with the benefits gained, the cost of maintaining the alliance between the two is nothing at all.
Especially the super cannon in front of me. Although it has various disadvantages such as bulkiness and long charging time, its power is enough to make up for everything.
Gracia has made up her mind to ask Zuo Siye to customize one after returning from this war, no matter what the price is.
Also having the same thoughts is her good sister Fierna. Glancing at his daughter and the layer lords with their own ulterior motives, Asmodeus calmly ordered: "Attack the whole army! Completely defeat this last defensive force of the second layer! I only give you two It took several hours to end the battle and clean up the battlefield.”
With the deafening cheers of the devils, this unprecedented-scale battle finally entered its final stage.
Although ILS Orr tried to reorganize the army, the Archon Protoss suffered so many devastating blows today that many people completely lost the will to fight and resist, and began to be attacked in pieces. captured by the devils.
Seeing that the situation was over, he could only gather some of the remaining soldiers and choose to retreat, abandoning the second level and retreating to the third level of his rule. At the same time, he reported the super weapons used by the devils to the Seven Lies of Heaven.
ILS Or believes that as long as this report spreads throughout the good camp, the other lofty planes will definitely take action immediately.
……
On the other side, is the Royal Palace in Calimport.
Zuo Si was staring with a very strange look at Talona, who was standing in front of him, as helpless as a little girl who had made a mistake, and his abstract little son who was asking him about the "meaning of living".
After half a minute, he asked in an uncertain tone: "Didn't I tell you to notify me in advance when he is about to be born?"
" Hug...I'm sorry, the situation was too complicated at the time, and I couldn't inform you immediately," Talona defended herself in a low voice.
But the boy next to her exposed her lies without mercy.
"No, that's not right. Mother deliberately prevented her men from informing you, father."
moment!
Talona performed the unique skill of changing her face, first from nervousness to shock, and then from shock to anger.
She couldn't believe it at all that this ungrateful little brat dared to betray herself.
“Pfft, hahahaha! Interesting! It’s so interesting!”
Little Annie, who was hiding in the corner watching the fun, couldn’t help but burst into laughter on the spot. At the same time, the more she looked at her new brother. The more fun it becomes.
"My good daughter, can I trouble you not to cause trouble at this time?"
Zuo Si glared at the girl angrily.
"Oh, I got it."
Little Annie quickly made a zipper motion for her mouth, and then pretended to be serious.
But her suppressed smile could not be concealed at all.
As the saying goes, if you watch the fun, you don't have to worry about the chaos.
What's more, it also involves my powerful old father.
But Zuo Si obviously had no time to pay attention to his daughter who was a little gloating at this moment, and asked Talona directly: "Don't you want to explain?"
"Explanation is still needed now. Is it useful?”
The goddess seemed to be breaking a jar. She sat down on the chair and picked up a piece of fruit placed on the table and took a bite.
She obviously knew very well that with Zuo Si's IQ, there was no possibility of lying and sophistry from the moment her little brat told the truth.
Instead of continuing to refuse to admit it, it is better to admit it and seek leniency.
You must know that as Zuo Si's power becomes more and more powerful, Talona has already set her posture very low, and has never acted like a goddess.
There is even a little bit of fear of making the other person angry.
"Why do you do this? I think you should be very aware of the dangers involved."
Zuo Si continued to ask questions calmly.
He knows that now that something has happened, there is no point in being angry or angry. The top priority now is to solve the problem rather than create conflicts.
Many people just vent their emotions blindly because they can’t understand the seriousness, and eventually completely intensify the problem that was not very serious in the first place.
As a self-proclaimed rational person, Zuo Si would certainly not make such a mistake.
And his younger son didn't seem rebellious at all. Instead, he had an indescribable sense of weirdness. He actually raised very profound philosophical questions as soon as they met.
Because countless scholars and philosophers have discussed the meaning of life in depth from various angles, but no one can give a convincing standard answer, or a social consensus.
From a personal perspective, Zuo Si prefers that life itself has no meaning at all, but that "people" as the subject of thinking forcefully give it meaning in order to give themselves a reason to live.
Otherwise, what is the meaning of the lives of those babies who die shortly after birth?
Is the purpose of those poultry and livestock in the slaughterhouse alive just to provide meat for humans?
Or maybe the meaning of life for animals locked up in zoos is to be watched by others?
What do those exploited people who are exploited by capital all their lives and eventually die in pain of poverty, hunger, and disease live for?
Only if life itself is meaningless can these phenomena have a reasonable explanation.
But the question is if life itself has no meaning, then why don’t those who are constantly struggling choose to die?
Why still live in pain?
Have some unrealistic hopes for the future?
Or is it simply driven by biological instinct?
Or are you reluctant to give up the pleasure brought by short-term and timely enjoyment?
Zuo Si himself obviously didn't know how to answer, so he could only use Talona to delay time while thinking of a suitable answer.
But Talona obviously didn't know this, and explained with a wry smile: "I just hope he can get closer to me as a mother, but I obviously messed up."
" Okay, I think I know what’s going on.”
Zuo Si nodded slightly.
"You're not angry with me, are you?"
Talona stared at Zuo Si's eyes with concern and cautiously tested.
"No. Am I the kind of person who gets angry casually? Don't worry, you should go back and take care of the country that is in panic. You don't have to worry about things here."< br>
Zuo Si stretched out his hand to help the goddess tidy up her hair that was blown by the wind, with a reassuring smile on her face.
Talona was obviously relieved when she saw this. She threw away the fruit core in her hand and glanced at her child from the corner of her eye, then turned around and left reluctantly.
She knew that it was time for the father and son to talk next, and staying would only add to the chaos.
Watching the goddess disappear completely from the continent of Faerûn, Zuo Si stood up and said to his youngest son: "There are many meanings of living. Everyone has their own understanding. It is difficult to give an exact answer. The answer. But I can show you a little bit, would you like to come along?"
"Very happy!"
A glimmer of light flashed in the boy's strange white pupils.
"Awesome. Let's set off immediately. But before that, I have to ask, do you have your own name? If not, I can give you one."
Zuo Si I began to try to use psychological techniques and words to close the distance between the two.
Because he needs to determine the character and camp tendencies of his son before he can decide to show him the meaning of life.
"Well - just call me Mile."
The boy spit out a very casual name in a nonchalant tone.
Because this is the first life he killed and devoured before he was born, it is very memorable.
"Come with me, Maier. I think you should be able to use the planeswalker spark to travel across dimensions, right?"
With that said, Zuo Si started his journey The mage spark plunges into the dark void.
Meier followed without saying a word.
“Wait for me! I’m going too!”
Little Annie, who always likes to be lively, obviously would not let go of such an opportunity and followed her.
In the blink of an eye, a group of three people traveled through the dark void and arrived at the alley of a modern metropolis that was slightly dark, nostalgic, and full of pungent smells.
Before the two little guys had time to confirm which time and space they were here, a figure emerged from the darkness and rushed towards a homeless man huddled next to a trash can on the roadside at lightning speed. , took out a dagger with a cold light and stabbed continuously.
Along with the painful screams, the clothes on the homeless man's body were soaked with dark red blood.
But the man holding the dagger showed no mercy at all. He stabbed the other person a dozen times until he stopped struggling and twitching, and then threw the still warm body into the trash can. Then turn around and go into another alley.
The entire killing process was simple, rough, and fast. There was not a single word of communication from beginning to end, and there was no behavior such as robbery. From the beginning, they were rushing to kill.
If you hadn’t seen it with your own eyes, it would be hard to imagine that someone would kill a worthless homeless person on the roadside.
"How, what do you feel?"
Zuo Si suddenly asked confusedly.
“I felt the loss of life and the unwilling resentment. The man who was killed did not want to die, he wanted to live.”
Maier expressed his most intuitive feelings directly.
Zuo Si sighed softly: "Yes, that tramp wants to live. But do you know why he wants to live? After all, his life is already so miserable, and he can't see any hope or future at all."
"Because... he can get cheap physical happiness from alcohol, drugs, gambling and sex?"
Mayer asked in an uncertain tone.
“Haha, you are only partly right.
Another part is that he saw some scenes that he shouldn't have seen, and tried to use them to extort a huge sum of money from another person.
With this money, he will be able to get rid of his current bad situation and live the life of debauchery he dreams of.
But unfortunately, he forgot one thing, that is, since the other party is a rich man, why should he accept blackmail instead of directly paying for the murder?
After all, this is the famous Gotham City, a paradise for all kinds of criminals, perverts, gangsters, psychopaths and lunatics.
So he died, at the hands of a punk who was willing to kill someone for just two thousand dollars. ”
After that, Zuo Si once again turned his attention to his youngest son and asked with a half-smile: "Can you tell me what the meaning of this homeless man's life is?"
Maier lowered his head and thought for a moment. , quickly replied: "The meaning of his life is to pursue the ultimate enjoyment. For this reason, he is willing to risk being killed."
"Yes, this is the meaning of life.
< br>Although it is boring and vulgar, it is the most true portrayal of the hearts of many mortals.
For these people, obtaining money through work or other means is just for spending it in exchange. Luxury in every aspect.
Their brains were completely alienated and turned into demons who could not suppress the desires in their hearts.
The most typical characteristic of this type of people is that they usually have a short life span.
The more they try to escape death, the closer they get. ”
When saying these words, Zuo Si’s tone clearly contained a trace of naked and undisguised contempt.
Although he was not an ascetic, he was often satisfied. His own desires, but he looks down upon this guy who is completely swallowed up by desires
After all, people's pleasure threshold has an upper limit, and it will become less and less sensitive according to the intensity of stimulation, and eventually it will require something very twisted and perverted to satisfy it.
Therefore, people who pursue extreme pleasure will inevitably become perverts in the end.
"It turns out that enjoyment is the meaning of living..."
Mair muttered in a low voice, his eyes shining with curiosity as he looked at the homeless man's body.
Obviously, compared to the extremely kind-hearted Yakon Celestials and the extremely evil devils, the thoughts and behaviors of these mortals are the areas of interest to him.
Because the complexity of human nature is not static, but constantly oscillating between good and evil, order and chaos.
Especially the dye vat of Gotham, which is simply the perfect stage for all kinds of extreme human nature.
“Ahem—Father, there are a pair of eyes in an alley behind that are staring at us maliciously.” Little Annie coughed hard and reminded.
"It's just a little vindictive little kitten, just let her follow, it doesn't matter."
Zuo Si shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly.
He had long spotted Catwoman jumping down from a building not far away, and also knew why she was following her from a distance.
After all, since he was forcibly injected with the curse of beast transformation, every full moon night, the opponent will turn into a cat-man form and become more animalistic.
This situation obviously makes it more difficult for Catwoman, who already has many cat-like habits, to control herself.
After discovering that the culprit who has disappeared for a long time has appeared, he naturally can't help but want to try to get something like an antidote.
“As you wish.”
Little Annie obviously didn't regard a lycanthrope as much of a threat. After turning around and taking a look at the black figure on the roof, she ignored him.
The group of three people continued to move along the alley under the leadership of Zuo Si.
It can be seen that with the complete completion of the destruction and reconstruction caused by the last Doomsday, Gotham City, which had improved its security situation, has once again returned to its old state.
I have to say, this unfortunate place is really damn poisonous.
You must know that there is not only a Batman Bruce Wayne in Gotham now, but also the Bat Demon he pulled from another timeline, and the Sun Knight Davian.
But what's the result?
Gotham is still the same Gotham, the old recipe and the old taste have not changed at all.
All kinds of crime, murder, gang fights and gray industries are all over the streets.
After walking only a few blocks, Zuo Si witnessed three more murders, two of which were gangs dealing with traitors, and one where a drug addict got high and killed someone who was also high. My girlfriend strangled her to death.
In addition, they also tried to sell him various small white pills of unknown origin and purpose that were said to make people super happy.
In short, there are only things you can’t imagine that wouldn’t happen without Gotham.
Just when Zuo Si was showing his son the rich diversity of this city and the understanding of the meaning of life by bad people from all walks of life, a familiar voice suddenly fell from the sky and landed steadily on the ground with the help of a hang glider. Then a specially processed deep voice echoed in my ears.
“When did you come back?”
“Just now. I have to say, you showed up a little earlier than I expected. What, have you been very free recently? "
Zuo Si raised his head and stared at the opponent's eyes full of doubt and awe under the bat helmet with a smile.
You don't need to ask to know that the person who came is none other than the guardian of this city, the famous Batman - Mr. Bruce Wayne.
Obviously, through various high-tech means, he discovered Zuo Si's arrival, so he immediately put down other things on hand and rushed over as soon as possible.
After all, even if all the criminals, psychopaths, and lunatics in Gotham City combined could cause damage, it would still be far less than a single finger of the great devil in front of him.
"Who are these two children?"
Bruce Wayne subconsciously focused on little Annie and Mel.
If it were anyone else, they might regard the two little guys as ordinary minors.
But he knew that being able to follow Zuo Si and walk in the alleys of Gotham at night without changing his expression or heartbeat would definitely not be associated with the word ordinary.
As a person who likes to collect intelligence and formulate various targeted strategies in his spare time, he immediately wants to find out the identity, origin, strength and weakness of the opponent out of professional habit.
After all, it’s better to be prepared...
