Origin of all things Arkham

Chapter 205 Young People in the City
In the evening, in an ordinary coffee shop in the city.

All kinds of people who have just escaped from work, family, and cold single apartment are eagerly waiting for the relief of caffeine to help them face the confused life more clearly.

This is the norm in cities.

Many people say that cities make life better.

However, more people are always lonely and flustered in the huge and noisy city.

They can't find their place, they can't go back to their hometown, and it's hard for them to gain a foothold in the city.

What was it like at the beginning? How did you leave on a certain evening like today, under the shadow of the setting sun by the window, bathed in warm sunshine, yearning for the prosperity of the city, so you resolutely left? hometown, came to the city.

Fight here, struggle here, be lonely here, and squander your youth here.

"Damn it! This shitty life!"

A young man with a tie and shirt cuffs unbuttoned casually on his elbows angrily and excitedly threw the irreparable sugar substitute packet on the ground.

At this time, in this kind of place, there are always many off-duty workers who have just finished their work and are suddenly on the verge of collapse due to various trivial matters.

They can't choose a bar, because that may delay tomorrow's work.

They can only choose the coffee shop, and then suddenly feel depressed because of the queue, because of the sugar packets that cannot be torn apart.

"This shit job! A life like shit! Destroy it! Let's all die together!"

The young white-collar worker wearing glasses even scolded in a very low voice. He is used to suppressing, and is used to suppressing the external manifestations of every emotion.

But this does not prove that he is used to this kind of life.

Looking around, there are many people in this coffee shop, but very few people are smiling. Most of the time, when someone happens to take a picture, everyone in the picture is almost confused and is nothing. help.

All go to hell.

They seem to be thinking about things like this all the time.

The young man who couldn't open the sugar substitute finally succeeded. He took a deep breath and reached for the cup of coffee that could only bring him warmth.

clang~
The tabletop shook slightly, and some coffee spilled out and landed on his hand.

Pursing his lips, he reached out again.

clang~
"Damn it! Fake! Fake!!"

A small matter became the last straw that could not be overwhelmed.

A slap hit the table, and the coffee spilled all over the floor. The young white-collar worker lifted up the mobile death-reminder workbench that he had to continue working after work: a laptop, and wanted to knock this thing on someone's head.

Maybe there's nothing to worry about when you're dead.

He panted heavily, he held the computer high, he gritted his teeth tightly, he heard the exclamation of the crowd, saw them running in fear, he was shrouded in a shadow.

The next second, the young white-collar worker turned his head and saw a huge red foot outside the window of the coffee shop.

boom!
The strong wind and the huge vibration and roar knocked the little white-collar to the ground, rolled several times, and hit the edge of the wall.

With trembling hands and feet, he struggled to stand up, and the last rays of sunlight that fell in the evening shone on his face.

The walls are gone because the coffee shop is gone too.

That huge foot, that monster as huge as a mountain, crushed the entire coffee shop with one foot.

The lips were trembling, the beating of the heart seemed to make the eardrums buzz, and the little white-collar felt that all the senses were infinitely sharp.

He saw the ringed ridges on the monster's hideous horns.He heard the sound of a car exploding and someone calling for help.There was a bitter and fishy-sweet taste in his mouth.The ground he was holding on to was all slippery.He smelled it, the smell of blood.

Lowering his head, he finally saw himself lying on something.

half a person.

The owner of the coffee shop.

Only half the boss.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

He finally stopped suppressing his emotions, stopped lowering his volume, and yelled out the loudest cry since he yelled his ideals to the sunset.

Then, boom.He fell to the ground and passed out.

Not far away, the huge Sangong Demon is still trying to make more people shout out.

………………

"what?!"

The old bat is sitting in his batcave when he hears some bad news.

He hung up the phone quickly, and turned on his row after row of screens linking various cities.

Then, he saw the huge red figure on a certain screen at a glance.

"What is this……"

Bruce Wayne, aka Batman, the biggest and most difficult enemy he has encountered in his life is at Lynn's level.

How should I put it, Master Batterman, I haven't fought a tough battle so far.

Facing a huge monster with a height of nearly 30 meters and a height of nearly [-] floors when standing up, the instinctive giant phobia of human beings broke out in an instant, which almost made his thinking sluggish, and he suspected that he was delusional.

But how could these things defeat the omnipotent Batman?

Almost instantly appeared in his mind and rejected more than a dozen countermeasures one by one.

But in the end, Master Betterman had to admit with some sadness that he had no way to deal with such a big guy.

At least from the images sent from the surveillance screen, this guy who can punch a big hole in a building and knock down a building with a sweep is not just a show.

But Master Batterman set off without hesitation.

Whether you can do it or not is one thing, but whether you can do it or not is another matter.

However, Batman is definitely not going to "know his destiny and do everything he can" to express his sense of existence.

He ran to a huge hollow mountain, which is one of the largest natural caves in the bat cave. Two years ago, it was empty, but now, there is a world's most advanced aircraft parked here. , the most cost-effective multi-person shared fighter.

Obviously, since it is a fighter plane, it has an armed system.

Simply leaving a few phone calls to Alfred, Batman directly started the plane and flew to the city where the incident happened.

He had a hunch that the crisis this time was likely to be the same as the one when General Zod came to Earth before, and it might even be a more terrifying crisis.

Thinking of this, Batman set his sights on his bat belt.

Among the many compartments of the belt that contained various props, a ring was placed in a certain compartment.

Green ring.

"So...do I still need to use it..."

Batman's face was expressionless, and no more useful information could be read from his exposed chin.

Afterwards, he turned on the video communication equipment on the fighter plane and connected many people at the same time.

Superman, Arrow, Wonder Woman, Fiora...and, Lynn.

..............................

Before the arrival of Batman and others, before the arrival of other powerful superheroes in the world, Green Arrow had already arrived in the city where the big red monster appeared.

Because the place where the big monster is located is a city not far from Star City.

As Chaoying who arrived first, Green Arrow felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

The enemy is too strong, too...

It is really too far beyond normal understanding.

That is not an enemy that can be dealt with with bows and arrows at all.

Although the Green Arrow did not lose the fighting spirit because of the large gap in strength between the enemy and us.

But no matter whether he chooses to defeat the opponent, stop the opponent, or even attract the opponent's attention and lead it to other places, the opponent will turn a blind eye to it, and even directly ignore his attack.

And Green Arrow's most powerful arrow is nothing more than stuck in the opponent's chest and drifted away with the wind.

The chaos in the city is still going on, and the big monster seems to be deliberately bringing fear and wanton destruction to the city.

People fleeing refugees appeared in every corner, every place where smoke and dust rose, the traffic in the city had been completely destroyed, monsters only accounted for a small part of the damage, and most of the roads were completely blocked due to the collision of vehicles.

The people in the car can get down and run wildly along the road while screaming in terror.

But those inside the collapsed buildings could only cry and pray in despair.

Because the road was blocked, the managers and controllers of the city seemed to have lost their foresight for a moment, and could only blindly throw all the people they could send into the city.

Green Arrow saw with his own eyes that many people who had just been assigned got out of the car, changed into other clothes, and ran away among the crowd.

More people probably didn't answer the phone call that they knew they were going to do.

The city's response can only be done in this way, and it will be done in this way.

And the counterattack is even more difficult to look directly at.

It is almost difficult for the forces on the ground to enter the city, so all counterattack forces are concentrated in the sky.

At first, Green Arrow really thought that humans could use their industrial strength to solve the problems that they could not solve with bows and arrows.

But the missile with tail flames only made the big monster tilt its body. It raised its hand to disperse the thick smoke and disturbed the air, causing a helicopter to crash into the building.

With the palm stretched out and erected, the missile launched by the other plane turned and hit the other plane.

Raising his hand again, the observation plane in the distance flew straight into its hand, and then... was crushed.

The monster has many tricks... It seems to be deliberately showing off, displaying its strength wantonly.

Green Arrow dared to swear that he definitely saw a smile on the corner of the big monster's mouth.

In less than 2 minutes, the two fully equipped flying teams were all killed.

Only a few flames and smoke added to the city.

"Damn guy..."

Even though Green Arrow really wanted to do something, he could only look at the big monster, and continued step by step along a straight line, passing through the city, leaving behind ruins all over the place.

He walked too fast. In just ten minutes, he forcibly knocked out a passage full of wreckage in a city.

"Damn it!"

Green Arrow can only pay attention to that guy's movements while doing what he can.

He moved stones and pulled out buried victims.

He gave temporary command and pointed out the direction of escape for a group of panicked people.

He shouted loudly, marking the location and number of rescue teams who were overdue.

He held someone's hand, remained silent, and wrote down his last words...

drop drop~
The communicator he carried had been beeping for a long time before Green Arrow finally noticed it.

After opening it, not surprisingly, Batman on the opposite side also had a serious expression on his face.

"Green Arrow, are you..."

Batman sees the dust and blood on Arrow's face, and the ruins and ruins behind him.

"Well, I'm here."

After pursing his lips forcefully, Green Arrow suppressed his depressed mood and great powerlessness, and told Batman all the situation and information he had grasped quickly in a simple and specific way.

A few months ago, after Batman found him, explained his purpose, and explained to him one of his ideas about forming a superhero group, Green Arrow agreed without any hesitation. he.

Green Arrow did not forget, once on the island, when Lynn suddenly appeared and brought him back to human society, he once said that sentence to him like a joke.

[I was hired by a bat to take you away. 】

There is no doubt that the bat is the Batman in front of him.

After that, he also went to learn all kinds of news and intelligence about Batman, both open and dark, and even contacted Lynn, but Lynn didn't tell him any useful news.

However, this does not prevent Green Arrow from knowing what kind of person Batman is, what kind of abilities and characteristics he has.

He is almost a natural leader and dominator.

At this moment, when the Green Arrow is in a state of desperation and helplessness, Batman is obviously the one who is more trustworthy and more trustworthy.

Personal heroism, at this time, seems to have become a joke.

Pursing his lips again, Green Arrow seemed to speak faster: "Batman! We must stop it before it reaches the next city!

It was vandalized!It is no mindless monster! "

After speaking, Green Arrow felt the wind blowing from his side, and when he raised his head, a person wearing a red close-fitting combat suit with a lightning logo on a red edge and a yellow background appeared beside him.

He raised his hand to touch his own bow and arrow, but the guy who appeared suddenly jumped to the other side with amazing reaction speed, raised his hand at the same time, and explained loudly: "Wait a minute! I'm a superhero too! I'm Lightning Xia, the ability is super fast, I didn't mean to listen to your conversation, but I can help you, and I need your help!"

flash?
Green Arrow thought about it, and this guy suddenly appeared, as if he was really fast.

Maybe faster than Lynn.

"What do you want to do. Any plans?"

It was Batman on the other end of the video who asked the question.

"I think... we should first rescue those buried under the rubble and bring them to safety."

"You said your speed is very fast, can you stop that big monster."

"I'd love to try it, but someone over there is already trying to stop it and is pulling it out of the city limits."

"Great!"

Green Arrow's eyes finally had some light, and he couldn't wait to confirm: "Did you come from there! Who is the person you saw! Is it Lynn, or Superman! Wonder Woman Hero? Martian Manhunter?!"

"Forehead……"

The Flash hesitated a bit, then shook his head: "Although I haven't seen the people you mentioned, I'm sure I know what they look like.

no.Those who stop the big monsters are not the ones you said.

They are, some young people.

Young people like me. "
