Chapter 211: A-Zu's insincere apology, such a weak god
The next day, early in the morning.

In Wayne Manor, Bruce and Peter have dinner with their family.

“It tastes a bit like a bunch of random things you picked up in the woods—thistles, thorns, bark, twigs—and threw into the liquid in the glass.”

Star-Lord commented on the taste of the drink he had.

"But it's good, I like the taste."

"Thank you for your comments, Star-Lord."

Bruce took a look at Star-Lord's figure and said to him, "I think you should be cautious with this high-calorie drink."

He tactfully raised the issue of Star-Lord's body shape.

"I think it's just right."

Star-Lord pointed to his own body shape and said, "Now this is the type that has the tough guy temperament."

"Which tough guy are you referring to?"

“Romero, the bullfighter in Hemingway’s Death in the Afternoon.”

Star-Lord deliberately lowered his voice, imitating Romero's way of speaking, "I will never fall."

"but."

Before he could finish, Clark next to him said to him: "But I remember he was not a good person."

"Good guy?"

Star-Lord looked at Clark in surprise, "Have you read this novel, Clark?"

"Yes, I have also read another novel by Hemingway, The Snows of Kilimanjaro, in which the protagonist Paro is also a young man working in a tavern who aspires to be a bullfighter."

"But the story ends with Enrique, another boy who washes dishes in the tavern, thinking that Paco's bullfighting skills are not practical. 'Everyone thinks bullfighting is fun, but you will be scared when the time comes.' Paco was not convinced, so they used table legs with knives tied to them to simulate bull horns in the tavern and started a bullfight. In the end, Paco lost his grip and was stabbed in the vitals by the knife, and died."

After hearing what Clark said, Star-Lord frowned, "Is this the end?"

"Yes, it's over."

"This is so hasty, what's the point of it?"

Clark put down the cutlery in his hand and said to Star-Lord: "The meaning is that courage is not inherently just, and unthinking courage is likely to bring destruction."

Clark turned his gaze to Peter who was eating next to him, "Godfather, am I right?"

Seeing Clark bringing the fight over, Peter looked at him speechlessly.

Are you, a boy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, so insidious?
Before Peter could give his opinion, Star-Lord looked at Clark in surprise, "I was only discussing tough guys, not reckless courage, Clark. You are totally off topic."

"Sorry, that's just what I thought of."

Clark shrugged.

Rocky next to him added fuel to the fire, "Clark is now obsessed with critical literature. He has become cynical because of Lana's incident."

"Hey, Loki."

Hearing Loki mention Lana, Clark cast a dissatisfied look over, "This has nothing to do with Lana."

"Sorry, that's just what I thought of."

Loki imitated Clark's way of speaking.

Clark suddenly wanted to punch someone.

Bruce, who was sitting far away from the two, looked at the three people who kept talking, and he and Alfred looked at each other.

He suddenly felt a little sympathy for Peter.

These children are definitely "father-worried people"!

"Quiet!"

Peter, who finally couldn't bear it anymore, spoke loudly to the few people.

"If you're full, you can go out and play a bullfight to see who's the last tough guy left."

Seeing that Peter was angry, Star-Lord and the other two immediately shut up and started eating.

After subduing several people, Peter swallowed the delicious food and took a deep breath.

It's early in the morning, can't these naughty kids just be a little more cheerful?
The day passed quickly, and after Loki's investigation, he had already locked on his target.

"According to my investigation, Gotham is roughly divided like this. Penguin is responsible for the arms trafficking business, Black Mask is responsible for drug production, and there are also Falcone, the Four Great Families, and so on."

Loki and A-Zu walked together on the streets at night, and Loki told A-Zu the information he had found.

"How did you find out?"

A-Zu looked at the other person in surprise, not understanding why the other person knew so much inside information.

"It's simple. I found it out at the Gotham Police Department."

"Police station? How did you get in?"

A-Zu was a little confused.

Loki had transformed into a young man by this time, and he said to A-Zu casually, "Go in openly, just like this."

In Azu's astonished eyes, Loki turned into the image of Gordon.

A-Zu: "Well, I forgot you could transform."

Loki shrugged his shoulders, then changed from Gordon to Clark, then to Star-Lord, and finally to Bruce.

"Can you change back?"

Looking at Loki's changes, A Zu frowned and said to him: "We are going to do real work now."

"of course can."

Loki immediately turned back into the image of a young Loki, "It seems that you are not very interested in watching the drag show."

Ah Zu said to Loki with a frown on his face: "Okay, Loki, let's stop talking about irrelevant things. Which one should we start with next?"

after an hour.

Iceberg Restaurant.

The Penguin, wearing a top hat and a tuxedo, is talking on the phone with a client in the office on the second floor. Although the Iceberg Restaurant is nominally a restaurant, it is a cover for him to cover up a series of illegal financial activities such as money laundering for the underworld.

As the boss of the Iceberg Restaurant, the Penguin was born into the Cobblepot family, one of the four major families in Gotham City.

Although he is short in stature, he is cunning and very good at bird training. What's even more amazing is that he can easily tame any bird. These birds are distributed in every corner of Gotham City and even across the United States. They serve as his tools to collect intelligence and transmit messages.

In addition, because his father died of pneumonia due to being caught in the rain when he was a child, he always carries an umbrella with him. The umbrella he uses contains a variety of deadly weapons and equipment, making it difficult for his opponents to defend themselves.

As the underworld boss of Gotham City, the smart and cunning Penguin has always been one of Batman's most difficult enemies.

Of course, the Penguin hasn't fought Batman yet.

After hanging up the phone, before he had time to light his cigar, he heard his men reporting to him: Black Mask's drug-making chemical factory had been robbed.

"You said Black Mask was robbed?!" The Penguin asked in disbelief with his eyes wide open.

"Yes, sir, it happened half an hour ago."

"Who did this?!"

"Not sure, but according to the information, there are only two people on the other side."

"Just two people."

Penguin immediately lost his composure. "How is this possible? Who are they?"

"It is said that one of the guys claims to be a god."

"God?!"

The Penguin opened his mouth wide.

Meanwhile, downstairs.

The Iceberg Restaurant was closed at this time, and all the people inside were Penguin's men.

At this moment, his men were staring blankly at Loki standing on the stage.

The young man, Loki, dressed in a green robe, stood on a huge staff and looked down at everyone.

The staff flashed with a strange light, which hurt everyone's eyes.

Although it looked impressive, in fact, this staff was just a branch he picked up on the roadside. He engraved some runes on it and added some sleight of hand to scare off the gangsters.

Seeing Rocky's arrogance, some gangsters in the audience raised their guns and wanted to shoot Rocky.

"Oh!"

Without waiting for the opponent's bullet to be fired, the magic in Loki's "staff" shot towards the opponent's body.

The gangster was unable to react in time and was shot away by the magic from the staff. He fell heavily to the ground, spitting blood from his mouth.

"I am the king of Asgard, the son of Padrick, the god who rules over all of you mortals. Now, kneel down!"

Loki emphasized the last word "kneel down", shaking everyone's heart.

Many people were shocked by his powerful words and could not help but kneel down before him.

Many gangsters are also preparing to fight back.

Just then, the Penguin came down from upstairs and saw Loki holding the staff.

Passing the cigar to the bunny girl next to him, Penguin Man walked down and asked Loki: "Who are you? Why are you making trouble here?"

The Penguin, who is used to big scenes, will not be intimidated by Loki.

Loki shouted at the Penguin: "I am the God who rules you. Why don't you kneel down before me, you mortal!"

"I don't believe in God, you can't order my people around here."

As soon as the Penguin finished speaking, Loki raised his staff and shot at him.

The startled Penguin quickly dodged to the side.

With a "bang", the magic energy hit the stairs behind the penguin man, shattering the wooden stairs.

"You idiot, I'm a god!"

Loki cursed at the Penguin.

The next second, with a "bang", A-Zu broke through the glass and landed heavily on the stage.

The powerful impact instantly shattered the floor.

Because A-Zu deliberately did not restrain his strength, a powerful impact force burst out instantly.

Loki, who was closest to him, was blown away by the shock wave.

Loki only felt that time was slowed down and everything in front of him was paused.

With wood chips flying all over the sky, his body flew out sideways uncontrollably.

He wanted to grab something, but he could only watch his body fly away like a baseball.

With a "bang", time returned to normal and Loki fell heavily to the ground on his back.

With his eyes fixed on the ceiling and breathing heavily, the staff in his hand flew out instantly.

After completing the landing, A-Zu looked at Loki lying on the ground and shook his head, "What a weak god."

Penguin Man and others were completely stunned.

They only saw Loki declare himself a god and then be smashed away.

The sudden change caught everyone off guard.

"Sorry, I landed too fast and couldn't control the force."

A Zu raised his hand and apologized to Loki with his head lowered.

After apologizing insincerely, A-Zu turned his gaze to Penguin and others.

"Hey guys, I'm sure you don't mind if I borrow something."
