Origin of all things Arkham

Chapter 163 The Sword's Owner
With a heavy heart, I went back to... the old bat's house.

Lynn finished a bottle of wine, and he hasn't appeared yet.

"Al, he's out again?"

Although he is friends with Lynn, Alfred still seems to have very high requirements for his professional ethics and standards. He just stands beside Lynn and talks to Lynn gently.

"I think you should ask this question when I pour you the first glass of wine."

He took out another bottle of wine. Anyway, for Alfred, it might be a better choice for Lynn to drink the wine stored in the Wayne family than to be drunk by Bruce.

"Obviously, the young master is sleeping at this time."

After Al filled the wine for Lynn, he straightened the bottle: "But I don't know what Batman is doing."

"Hahaha, you are so funny. Just right."

Lynn directly drank the wine in his glass, then turned his hand and picked up the bottle beside Al's hand: "I'm not in a good mood now, very depressed, very lost, I think, I need to go out to get some air, find some Little friends, come and explain to me."

He raised his head and took a sip for himself, and Lynn gave a lot of it.

"Gotham is such an interesting place."

………………

Gotham is such a boring place.

The cloak wraps around the body tightly, like a solid shield, hiding Batman above the gargoyle in the middle of a certain building.

Batman doesn't like Gothic architecture, which reminds him of the old Wayne family home.

When he was young, it used to be a place full of laughter and laughter.

But now, the ancestral house is dilapidated, the laughter, the bright sunshine, and the blooming flowers in the past seem to have disappeared.

When did they become a pale part of memory...

Those... vague appearances, inscribed names, shadowy figures, barely audible voices...

Those things made him and hurt him.He had to put on a thick camouflage.

Be it Batman or Bruce Wayne.

There are too many times when Batman is questioning himself, how should I protect Gotham.

He had too many answers, all of which proved to be failures.

And just like what he saw, Gotham today has not changed at all.

"Help!"

In the corner of the street, a dirty crime is happening.

It is one of the most intuitive manifestations of evil, cruelty, violence, gain for nothing, injury, bloodshed... the cycle repeats.

The huge bat wings spread out, which were his cloak and his wings.

Relying on a huge amount of money invested and a manufacturing process that does not consider cost performance at all, the simple and lightweight cloak can not only absorb enough light to make him hide well, but also has a certain bulletproof function, and also provides the ability to glide.

"Shut up! Bitch!"

A big bald man in a denim jacket with open shoulders is gradually approaching a woman.

He had no mercy, and as the woman cried for help weaker, he laughed more and more wantonly.

Until, the hand he was about to punch stopped in the air and was pinched by someone, unable to move.

"Batman! Damn it!"

The brawny man turned around and punched Batman. His sloppy footsteps, dilated pupils, and the nauseous smell of poor-quality alcohol proved the weak, blind nature of the punching man.

Keeping your feet still, hook sideways.Batman thumps his foes in the stomach, adding some more nasty flavor to the trash-strewn alley.

The strong man fell in his own vomit, the pain and the physical expulsion of alcohol brought him back to a semblance of sobriety.

"Ha, Batman...uh...bad luck."

He slumped on the ground, turned his head to look at the woman who got up and ran away, and actually laughed: "Haha, I didn't commit a crime, did I. That woman is the criminal, you call yourself Gotham's night policeman, why, That prostitute stole my wallet, but you came to trouble me?"

This guy looked unremarkable, but he had gone to school and knew a little bit of law.

"next time……"

However, Batman just crouched down and punched him hard again.

"...Don't let me see you."

Turn around and leave.The bald head behind him was still roaring: "Damn Batman! You can't save Gotham! Who do you think I became like this because of! It's you! You should have killed them! You should have..."

The sound disappears.

Batman turned around in surprise, and saw a familiar figure standing in the alley.

"Lynn!"

"what?"

Lynn was holding the hammer and was about to make up the knife, but suddenly Batman called out and almost fell down.

"rest assured!"

He switched to holding the hammer with one hand and made a very ok gesture.

But how can this be reassuring!
So, even pulling and pulling, Batman still dragged Lynn aside, regardless of Lynn stretching out his hands and kicking his legs, he directly used the hook-lock gun hidden on his arm to take Lynn to the top of the building.

"Oh! Interesting! Let's do it again."

Speaking of which, Lynn was about to jump down, but was caught by Batman, who was suffering from a headache.

"Oh, stingy. Give me somersault cloud back, I'm going home."

Seeing Lynn's rogue look, Batman's head hurt even more.

"Lynn, have you seen that man?"

For some reason, Lynn couldn't feel any "emotion" in Batman's voice.

"Did you... kill him?"

It's okay not to mention this, but Lynn's head hurts when he mentions this.

"No, don't ask. How could such a question come out of your mouth!"

Sitting down on the edge of the roof, Lynn sighed angrily: "I miscalculated, and I'm very sad. So can you give me 500 million to make me happy?"

"Lynn."

Batman lightly put his hand on Lynn's shoulder, and comforted him softly: "I told you. You can ask Al directly for such a small amount of 500 million... What's wrong with you, where are you going?"

"I have a headache! It hurts like hell!"

Walking from one left to the other right, Lynn looked as if he was going to blow up Gotham.

Coincidentally, Batman also believes that Lynn can indeed do such a thing.

So, he pushed Lynn back again.

……

Looking down, the bald man had already run away. Lynn pouted and looked at Batman with disdain: "You seem to be a little weak. Ignorant boy, you will definitely make me lose if you do this."

Frowning slightly, Batman also sat next to Lynn: "It sounds like you and someone made a bet with me."

Turning his head, Batman "looked" at Lynn seriously: "Is it him?"

"correct."

Lynn simply lay down, pillowing his arms: "I finally confirmed that he is different from me. He doesn't want to protect anything, and he doesn't want to destroy anything.

He just wants to play.However, the person he picked was you. "

It was ambiguous, but Batman understood.

After a long silence, he asked curiously, "I thought you would kill him."

"It's useless."

Lynn pouted.He couldn't tell the old bat that the joker was "unkillable", and he couldn't tell the old bat that the crimes of Gotham were eternal, and they were watched from the distant starry sky.

Maybe it's better to wait for him to find out by himself.

Anyway, this is not a problem of pretending not to know that it doesn't exist. Living in Gotham, do you still think about it?
"How's Gotham going?"

Lynn smiled: "Why do I feel that the people of Gotham don't respect our Mr. Batman very much~
What does that guy mean, I almost asked, you are really troublesome. "

Hearing Lynn's question, Batman shook his head: "I just, do what I should do..."

"Oh, okay, don't say it, I get it."

Lynn knew that if he continued talking, he would definitely have to talk about those principles again.

Anyway, the information that should be conveyed has also been conveyed. I believe that the smart old bat must understand the meaning of Lynn's words, so that Lynn can do his own thing with peace of mind.

"In that case, I'm leaving."

Lynn got up and jumped down with a big jump, neatly.

The little kitty was stirring up the wind and rain in Nasino City, and brother Mars called one after another. Lin En felt that it was time to go back and have a look.

After all, he was also very interested in the woman with the sword that Huxing brother mentioned on the phone.

As for the rent, that is the house rented by Huo Huo, so what does it have to do with me, Lynn...

"Ok?"

The ground, something is wrong.

When Lynn landed, it didn't feel like he was stepping on the ground, but like something soft, plasticine or jelly.

"Lynn!"

At this moment, Batman on the top of the building also yelled, and then there was a roar, and there was a red light on the top of the building.

"Giao!"

Before he had time to think about anything, Lin En just subconsciously felt that he was being plotted by someone or something, but although his debut time was short, he had many enemies. At this time, there was no time to think about who it was.

Gathering strength in his legs, Lynn felt more and more that he had no ability to fly, which was a fatal weakness. When he was about to jump to the top of the building, the ground bulged in a strange shape, and a mud-like thing "floated" from the ground. ", tied to Lynn's leg.

"Ah mud monster! It's Cthulhu!"

Lin En's great sword appeared in his hand in an instant, and swung it like a propeller, chopping down more and more slime monsters.

And when those things "died", Lynn saw what they were.

road.

It is the path under his feet.

"Isn't Gotham not allowed to become a genius! These guys don't play crimes with high IQs!"

Although the ooze monsters are constantly being killed by Lynn, for some reason, there seems to be more and more of them, and...

Gathering into a bigger guy, gradually enveloping Lynn.

"Flower Q Flower Q!"

At this time, the Batman on the top of the building had already solved his problem first, and came down to help Lynn.

This made Lynn very puzzled.

Is it because there is not so much soil on the roof? !
Why can the old bat, a rookie, break free from the enemy's attack, but I can't? !
"Lynn! This way!"

At this time, Batman certainly wouldn't ignore it like Lynn did. He also had to worry about whether such weird things would breed in the city and harm the people of Gotham.

Therefore, he hurriedly greeted Lynn to run away, and lured these inexhaustible things away.

"Old bat!"

Seeing that even if Batman was standing there, those things didn't attack him, but piled up towards him crazily, Lynn also realized that something was wrong.

So, he threw out a cyan light spot with a chain of light, and shouted: "Step on it!"

Batman didn't panic, and calmly stepped on the spot of light.

In the next second, the chain of light quickly straightened and shortened, allowing Lynn to stand beside Batman.

Or, to put it another way, that thing dragged Batman over.

It was dragged to Lynn's side who was being attacked, surrounded, and trapped in place by monsters.

Looking at each other, Batman couldn't believe it.

Lin En was also stunned for a second, then pursed his lips, silently put away the [Soul Lamp] that had been used as a chain hammer for nearly two years, and changed his face in a second: "Oh, these guys actually forced you into the siege Alright! Invincible Batman, think of a way!"

Clenching his fists tightly, Batman suppressed some of his emotions, turned his head and forced himself to calm down and think about countermeasures.

And just as the two of them were talking, the other party's attack became more urgent and hysterical.

Those monsters waving muddy claws and beginning to take human form started a self-destructive attack.

As they rushed towards Lynn and Batman fearlessly, they tore their bodies, pulled off their arms, and twisted off their companions' heads...

Throwing towards Lynn and Batman.

Lin En was stunned for a second by this brain-dead attack method. Is this the explosive force? !
However, soon, Lynn knew the purpose of the other party's doing so.

Because those things thrown over, except for those cut off by Lynn and those avoided by the old bat, have gradually covered the walls on both sides of the entire alley, as well as the front and rear ends of the alley.

And, it gradually closed, converging in the sky above, devouring part of the walls on both sides of the alley, and the two or three meter thick road and soil on the ground, forming a black, wriggling, living creature with a diameter of tens of meters. , will attack, hollow big mud ball.

Unfortunately, Lynn and the old bat are now in the big mud ball, and because of Lynn's mistake, the foreign aid Mr. Batman is also imprisoned, wrapped in thick mud monsters like rice dumplings.

Even Lynn himself was submerged up to his waist by those things.

The only thing Lynn is grateful for now is that these guys are not the kind of things in hell, they will be corrosive, otherwise, his pants will be ruined.

When Lin En was thinking about something in a mess, it gradually shrunk, and the compressed ball shook violently.

Lynn felt that the swamp under his feet gradually solidified, and soon it was like reinforced concrete, making him unable to move at all.

And after that, the big ball began to shake, turn upside down, and spin rapidly... and kept moving.

"Batman! Help~!"

Batman had no intention of meeting Lynn. He was wrapped up in his body and was about to suffocate.

Just as Lin En raised his sword and was about to cut off his legs first to save the old bat from here, he suddenly stopped after a violent shaking, almost bringing out Lin En's heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys.

Big ball, stop.

"This is……"

click!
The sound of cracking eggshells just needs to be amplified countless times.

Because of the angle and movement, Lin En, who was hung on the sphere sideways, suddenly saw the inner layer of the pitch-black sphere in front of him, and a small hole was broken, and then...

bass!
A sword, sticking to Lynn's sword, pierced in.Then, Lynn heard a low, wild and powerful cry.

With this sound, the "eggshell" was pried open by the stabbing sword, and the one-meter-thick shell shattered into pieces. Lynn saw that standing outside was the owner of the sword.

Because of the angle, the first thing I saw were the golden and red boots.Upwards are two long, wheat-colored legs, and then a metal armor skirt of the same gold and red colors, extending all the way, following the smooth and flat line of the lower abdomen, gradually raising two arcs...

"You are……"

"Diana."

Lynn couldn't see the other person's face, but could hear the other person's voice.

"you……"

"There's no time to explain, get out of here with me!"

"Eh? Hey, cut it lightly, don't cut me, hey, wait a minute, I haven't cut it clean yet, I'm still planted in the cement! Hey! Batman is still inside...!"

　Well...one more chapter.
