Chapter 97 The Dissipating Mist (Seeking first subscriptions and monthly votes)

Early morning, 47 Crancy Street, East End.

Dio woke up in bed, grimacing as he rubbed his neck.

He had a nightmare last night in which a burly man with glowing red eyes stared at him all night.

I can't remember the specific details of the dream, but I felt a strange sense of urgency.

Okay, let's do a 10-pull first.

He glanced at the system panel.

[Points: 1600]

If I can do a 10-pull in one go, then I'll do a 10-pull first!

The black and white wheel began to spin, and soon the prizes were revealed.

The results of a ten-pull are mostly random and unreliable items.

Healthy eating recipes, whips, ripped jeans, and even a swimsuit photobook of Tequila Girl.

"Get out of here, you old bastard!!!"

Dior expressionlessly tossed the trash into the corner of his backpack, keeping only four useful items.

[Tabitha the Tiger - Galleven's Resilience Talent x1]

Raven Rachel Rose's Amulet x1

【Catwoman Serena - Kyle's Cat Elegance x1】

[Batman: Bruce Wayne's Guide to Fighting - Part 1]

"Two talents, one item, and one guide?"

Dio clicked on the specific abilities to take a look.

[Tabitha Gallevan's Resilience]

[Type: Talent]

[Ability: Passively increases pain tolerance, making one less susceptible to torture or fear]

Not bad.

With this, there's no need to waste the ripple pain reliever.

After all, he's afraid of pain, and if I don't use some tricks, he might really be beaten to tears.

Dior then looked at the next one.

Raven Rachel Rose's Amulet

[Type: One-time use magic amulet]

[Ability: Can summon a magic barrier to block one magic attack]

This is pretty good too. Although it's a one-time use item, you don't have to be timid when facing the Death Angel's magic sword.

Dio nodded to himself and looked at the next one.

【Catwoman Serena - Kyle's Cat Elegance】

[Type: Passive]

[Ability: Able to land silently, automatically adjust posture to reduce damage when falling from a height, and greatly improve balance]

The elegance of a cat?

Improve your sense of balance?

Dior's eyes lit up, and he immediately merged the two.

Five seconds passed, and nothing happened; I felt nothing at all.

Of course, he didn't care. After all, you only know about passive abilities when you use them.

Dio then looked at other items, but inadvertently caught sight of last night's mission.

[Mission: Only the blood of nine can wash away their sins]

[Mission Requirement: Destroy the remaining sacrificial ritual (4/9)]

[The ritual has been stopped: the sacrificial ceremony for the Bump I drainage system]

"4/9??? Shouldn't it be 3/9???"

Dior's face darkened.

Another sacrifice was completed overnight.

It seems that Saint Dumas has no shortage of scapegoats.

That makes sense.

In a place like Gotham, there are plenty of notorious bastards.

At this rate, before he can destroy all the rituals, he himself will be pushed onto the altar.

Hopefully, things will work out with Bruce.

If that doesn't work, Dior will have no choice but to push Tabitha to the forefront and force her to reveal more inside information, even if it means exposing her.

Of course, he wasn't without a backup plan.

Moreover, last night's police report should have drawn the police's attention to Santo Doma.

Gordon is no ordinary man.

His tenacious nature was enough to give Theo Gallerwin a headache for a while.

Dior smiled knowingly. After washing up, he went to the living room and found Bruce already putting on his coat.

"Go for it, Bruce."

"Hmm, I hope your mole really knows who killed my parents."

Bruce had faint dark circles under his eyes, clearly indicating he hadn't slept much last night.

Dior took in the weariness on the other person's face and understood the situation.

It seems someone is going to go all out.

Let me see just how amazing a serious young Batman really is.

"Don't reveal my whereabouts to the outside world; I am still a missing person."

"Don't worry, I won't tell."

Bruce nodded.

He knew the other party had gotten into serious trouble again. Although he couldn't help much, he could at least keep his mouth shut.

"Oh, right, here's your book back."

Bruce awkwardly handed over the guide to picking up women, looking embarrassed: "The cases in it really opened my eyes."

"I didn't watch it. I don't like watching this kind of stuff. Don't tell anyone else."

Dior quickly took it, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he looked around and didn't see Selena.

This is the culmination of Alfred's lifetime of womanizing; if that little cat were to see it, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"I'm leaving."

Bruce patted the other person on the shoulder and jogged towards the school.

Dior walked to the door and was about to close it when he saw a somewhat unfamiliar car parked on the street corner.

"Huh? A car came to a place like this?"

A flicker of wariness crossed his eyes, and he instinctively reached for the pistol at his waist.

If a stranger comes down, he will decide whether to perform an American-style iaido based on the strength of his spider-like intuition.

The driver's side door opened, and a chubby man wearing a trench coat got out.

Harvey Block.

The other person saw the blond boy standing at the door and waved: "Hey! You really are here, I knew it."

"Harvey?"

Dio calmly lowered his hand from the gun and gestured for the other person to come in.

"I hope you brought me good news."

"Of course, I bring good news."

Harvey quickly closed the door and placed the handwritten papers on the table.

"Look, this is a document from the Ministry of Internal Affairs that I wrote myself."

"A cult recently moved to Gotham, and Jim's been incredibly busy. Documents are also hard to access, so..."

Dio nodded in understanding, then picked up the document and began to read it.

Many people have recently gone missing in Gotham, and about twenty have been reported missing to the police.

But if we use "notorious" as the criterion for selection...

Six names were selected.

They are all people who have gone missing recently. By collecting data on their transportation, accommodation, internet access, payments, and surveillance before they disappeared, we can mark "trajectory points" on a map. The area where the six trajectory lines intersect is the area of ​​their main base.

"Have you gotten involved in something dangerous?"

Harvey, seeing the blond boy deep in thought, gritted his teeth and couldn't help but ask, "I do have some connections. Do you need me to find someone?"

Just as Dio was about to refuse, a plan flashed into his mind—a brilliant plan.

The book "Batman's Guide to Fighting" will definitely come in handy.

He turned to Harvey, a warm smile spreading across his face: "Harvey, do you have a girlfriend who's in the arms business?"

"no."

Harvey shook his head, but immediately changed the subject: "But I know people in the arms business."

"Can you get any kind of weapon? Explosives too?"

"Of course, even a Gatling gun will do." Harvey shrugged.

"Great, I just happen to need some handy tools."

Dior's gaze darkened, his smile turning sinister: "I'm going to use this to bid farewell to a friend."
