Starting from scratch, Batman crushed my dream of getting rich

Chapter 118: Robbery of the vault and encounter with pumpkin head, strange means and powerful as a monster
The shadow of a carriage slowly emerged from the diffuse mist, and the two horses pulling the carriage pranced.

There were two figures in the car. One was thin and tall, with tattered clothes and a strange and vague voice, looking like a scarecrow in the wheat field; the other was fat and short, wearing a big tall hat, with an ups and downs in his voice. It was he who sang the ballad "The Walrus and the Carpenter" from the story of Alice in Wonderland.

Amidst the roar of fireworks, the carriage leisurely stopped at the breach in the bank vault's outer wall. The clamor of fireworks and the bustling parade drowned out the blast, and few people in the distance heard the unusual movement. Ma Zhaodi could even guess that once the two men had emptied the bank vault, they would be able to quickly blend into the festive parade and vanish without a trace, aided by the flow of traffic.

He was lying on the ground, curled up and shivering like everyone else. His advanced acting skills allowed him to completely blend in with the other people lying on the ground, and no one could tell the difference.

As the carriage passed by him, he got up from the ground, took out his blowpipe, and quietly followed. The fog was still too thick at this time, obstructing his vision. He had to wait until he got closer to ensure that the blowpipe would hit the target.

Snapped!
Ma Zhaodi was sneaking forward when a hand suddenly grabbed his ankle. Turning around, he saw a guard who had been corroded by the poison gas to the point of losing his mind.

"No, no, don't go—call the police!"

Spicy balls!

Ma Zhaodi's eyes widened immediately. He was really touched that this elder brother still cared about him. But at this time, he was controlled by the opponent in terms of movement and made a sound, which made him very unhappy.

How can I sneak around like this?
"Huh? Who?"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Ma Zhaodi suddenly had a pumpkin head appear on his head. He immediately broke free from the guard's hand and rolled sideways on the spot.

"bang! bang! bang! bang!"

Four gunshots suddenly rang out in the depths of the fog. Ma Zhaodi, who had dodged, stood up, and there were three more bullet holes on the pumpkin head he was wearing.

"Damn it? He just dodged one. Are the super criminal's reaction and shooting skills so outrageous?"

Ma Zhaodi complained and looked sideways. The guard lying on the ground had fainted.

"How can you be so good at timing?"

During this short period of time, the green mist had gradually dissipated, and two figures faced Ma Zhaodi, with two horses pulling a carriage beside them.

Except for the scarecrow, the two horses and the Mad Hatter had no protection against the fear gas. Ma Zhaodi guessed that they must have taken the antidote for the scarecrow in advance.

Protecting against the fear gas requires very complicated measures, just like the two guards who were drenched by the green raindrops just now. They only had skin contact, but their sanity was also eroded by the gas - this shows that the fear gas can enter the body through the skin and respiratory system.

It's clear that the Scarecrow and the Mad Hatter don't want to rob a bank while wearing heavy and bulky biohazard suits.

Wait, Scarecrow and who?

Ma Zhaodi stared at the figure holding the huge pistol, his eyes widening. No, where is I, the Riddler? Why is it the Mad Hatter?

How could I be a wanted riddle man?
The two people on the opposite side could not see the expression on Ma Zhaodi's face. They only noticed that there were three more bullet holes on the head of the pumpkin man opposite them.

The scarecrow turned his head and looked at the Mad Hatter with a surprised look. He didn't expect that an ugly dwarf could be such a good shooter. He could actually locate the position by sound and shoot three times in the head.

Then I saw a confused look on the Mad Hatter's face.

Is my shooting really that good?
Ma Zhaodi sighed. The most convenient and safe stealth plan had failed, so he could only prepare for a frontal attack.

After a few seconds of confrontation, the Mad Hatter finally realized that the pumpkin-headed figure had been shot three times, but didn't seem to be dead. Or rather, there wasn't even any blood on his head. "Ghost? Ghost?"

"Whatever it is—" the Scarecrow interrupted, "Shoot a few more shots and see."

The Mad Hatter raised his gun again, and Ma Zhaodi immediately leaned forward and drew an eight-sided Han sword from behind.

"Where did he pull out his sword?"

"I don't know where to go!"

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

After firing three more shots, the Mad Hatter, realizing that no substantial damage seemed to have been caused, stuffed his automatic pistol into his hat and took out an extra-large-caliber double-barreled pistol from it. Ma Zhaodi continued to lean forward. Although the pumpkin on his head was already broken into pieces, he himself was still unharmed.

"I definitely hit him in the body." The Mad Hatter raised his gun again, "but the only thing that was hurt was the pumpkin on his head."

"Smash that pumpkin!" The scarecrow's voice drifted over, and he raised his sleeves and pointed them at Ma Zhaodi.

"No thanks."

Ma Zhaodi waved his gardening gloves and a flowerpot was immediately placed out, with a small grass with three leaves in it.

The grass' leaves were spinning rapidly, and suddenly a strong wind blew up. The green poisonous mist and the high-concentration fear gas sprayed from the scarecrow's sleeves were carried into the sky by the strong wind and disappeared without a trace after a moment.

He waved his hand again, and the clover on the flowerpot disappeared, and an ice-blue mushroom appeared again. At this time, Ma Zhaodi was very glad that the two of them took action at night. If it was during the day, he would have to spend money to buy coffee beans to activate the mushroom plants.

"boom!"

The large-caliber revolver bullet flew out of the chamber and directly shattered the pumpkin head on Ma Zhaodi's face. The shattered pumpkin fell to the ground, revealing another pumpkin head underneath.

"Fuck!"

"FXXK!"

At this moment, the synchronization rate between Straw and Mad Hatter reached 100%. Both of them stared at the more lifelike Pumpkin Head and began to doubt their lives - although they had been in Gotham for so many years and had seen many ghosts, the thing in front of them really made them doubt that they had seen a ghost.

Just as the two were stunned, the blue mushroom in the flowerpot began to grow suddenly. The quick-eyed and quick-handed Mad Hatter instinctively felt that something was wrong and immediately shot again. However, another pumpkin head appeared in an instant and put on the body of the ice mushroom.

"boom!"

The shot left Pumpkinhead badly wounded, but the ice-blue mushroom finally exploded successfully.

In just a moment, the terrifying cold current swept in all directions, and the exploding frost enveloped and swallowed everyone. In just a second, the entire bank vault door turned into a sky-blue ice sculpture world. All creatures were frozen in place, but the skin texture under the ice was still exquisite and lifelike.

The Scarecrow and the Mad Hatter froze in place, frozen into two large ice sculptures - everyone inside and outside the bank fell into this state. For a moment, everything around them fell into a strange silence.

PS: The freezing scene is as follows, but the picture below is the freezing effect of the North Wind Bomb, which will cause death, while the freezing of the Ice Mushroom is not fatal (also, the picture below can only be seen with the mobile version of Qidian, remember to upgrade to the latest version)
