I, V, Gotham Legend

Valerie swung the sledgehammer hard, hitting Bane's jaw from bottom to top, the monster's upper and lower teeth collided together, and he flew into the air at an even faster speed.

Bane was close to fainting. He tried his best to stay conscious. When he regained his sense of direction, he noticed that he was still floating in the air. The speedboats and mercenaries on the sea were as small as ants.

"Woo..." Bane tried his best to change his posture and wanted to fall down quickly. However, at the same time, the sound of breaking through the air and the roar of the engine rang in his ears, and a huge black bat-shaped plane suddenly appeared.

Batman was sitting in the cockpit. He saw Bane suddenly flying in front of him, but he did not slow down the speed of the Batwing.

It wasn't so much that he was crashing into Bane as that Bane was flying right into his path.

Batman looked at the tiny Valerie below and realized that this was definitely not a coincidence.

Batwing collided with Bane, and Bane couldn't bear it and spat out a mouthful of red and green blood, which smeared on Batman's front window.

After the mid-air traffic accident, Bane flew far away as if he was hit by a truck, tumbling and spinning towards the sea, but this time, he no longer tried to control his body.

NO48. I'd better vote.

The ship was close to sinking, with half of its body buried in the sea water, but the people fighting on the deck showed no intention of escaping.

Not only were there the motorboat thugs climbing aboard, but there was also a vanguard led by Big Bird charging all over the deck.

Fortunately, many police officers had already climbed onto the deck, so Helena did not have to be surrounded and beaten.

But she still looked a little disheveled, with white scratches all over her specially made battle suit.

If this wasn't the battle suit that V specially prepared for her, she didn't know how many times she would have lost her life.

But her opponent was in an even more miserable state. Although the woman holding the samurai sword was wrapped tightly, she could no longer stand steadily, and her eyes, which were exposed from under the mask, were bruised and purple.

Just as they were about to collide with each other again, the ship trembled and shook once again, as if it was hit by something again.

Although they were in a life-and-death battle, people still stopped and looked silently at the place not far from the ship, where there was obviously damage and billowing black smoke.

"Crack." The sound of bones rubbing against each other was heard, and a huge monster crawled out of the thick smoke.

Bane wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. He walked unsteadily. Compared with the hit to his abdomen, the dizziness in his head and the feeling of suffocation from drowning caused his physical strength and energy to be much less than before.

The reason he's still holding on is all thanks to his physique strengthened by the poison and his beast-like instincts.

Bane's eyes were dazed, but he still forced himself to give orders, wanting his men to lead him to retreat first, and revenge would be taken later.

But when he opened his mouth, all that came out was some confusing and incomprehensible nonsense.

The way he spoke sounded like a roar from the abyss of hell to everyone present. Combined with his bruised head and burn marks all over his body, it was even more terrifying.

Even Bane's thugs couldn't help but retreat. They even hesitated. Are they willing to fight to the death just to save such a monster?

Seeing that the subordinates who came to rescue him were unmoved and even retreated, Bane seemed anxious. His ugly face became even more ferocious. He rolled his eyes, raised his hands, and walked towards his subordinates as if he wanted to grab something.

Heavy footsteps pounded on the deck, like the heartbeat of a devil. People instinctively feared and resisted the giant who was stumbling towards them.

"state!!!"

Bane had only taken a few steps when the sound of metal colliding was heard, and he fell to the ground powerlessly like a knocked-down wall.

Valerie was holding a sledgehammer that was taller than her and carrying it on her shoulder naturally. It was obvious that the metal knocking sound just now was caused by her.

Under the horrified eyes of the crowd, Valerie squinted her eyes and walked around Bane's fallen body, then raised the sledgehammer and smashed it hard on the back of Bane's head.

"Boom!!!"

The sound was not as loud as the temple bell. Bane's body twitched as he lay on the ground, then collapsed to the ground, completely unable to move.

Although she knew she couldn't kill anyone with a blunt weapon, Valerie still blinked to make sure Bane was just unconscious before she put away the sledgehammer.

"Run... retreat!" Big Bird realized that the prison break plan could no longer succeed. He still had some courage, so he immediately gave the order to retreat.

But this ship was obviously not a place where one could leave as one pleased, and the police station's arrangements were not completely useless. A large number of police helicopters had already been hovering over the ship, and there were also a considerable number of police speedboats around the sea.

Big Bird took out the walkie-talkie and ordered the headquarters in the rear: "Raise all the submarines, we need to evacuate in advance."

After that, Big Bird glared at Valerie and said, "Just wait, we will remember this day forever."

"You may not have a tomorrow." Valerie shrugged off Big Bird's words.

Big Bird raised his eyebrows in dissatisfaction, but noticed that the fleet of submarines on the seabed never rose.

"Control room! Didn't you hear me? I told you to raise the submarine!"

Big Bird picked up the intercom again and roared.

"It seems that we are still one step ahead." Valerie said, looking up.

Big Bird finally panicked: "What did you do to our headquarters? No... How could you find them?"

"I won't tell this to the enemy." Valerie laughed and then stabbed out the mantis knife from her forearm.

Big Bird gritted his teeth, and with a fighting attitude, he raised the scimitar at his waist and rushed towards Valerie.

However, Valerie's speed was beyond their reach. Big Bird had only run a few steps when the woman disappeared before their eyes as if she had teleported.

The crackling sound of electricity sounded behind him. Big Bird turned around in horror and found that Valerie was already standing among the crowd.

She pointed the mantis knife, which was flashing blue light, at the ground and tapped them lightly. Blue arcs of electricity spread out from her and climbed onto the bodies of Big Bird and the others.

“Sizzle, sizzle, ahhh…”

The people on one side of the deck, whether they were Bane's remnants or the police fighting with them, were all struck by electric current as long as they were close to Valerie. They fell to the ground after a convulsion. From a distance, the dark crowd looked like a cake with a piece cut off.

"This shouldn't be considered an assault on a police officer, right?" Valerie said thoughtfully as she looked at the police officers who were indiscriminately electrocuted.

Just at this moment, Gordon and others finally ran out of the cabin, holding weapons and aiming at the prisoners on the deck.

"Don't move! You are surrounded." Gordon shouted immediately after realizing the situation.

Valerie also lifted the big bird's head as if it were a beheading. At least it was in front of Gordon, so she didn't really chop off the criminal's head.

The submarine prepared in advance in the sea still did not rise. The remnants of Bain on the ship lost their fighting spirit and knelt on the ground skillfully with their heads in their hands.

Only Katana, who was fighting Helena, refused to admit defeat, and the way she held the Katana was shaking.

"For... Resho Aogu!" the ninja shouted, raising his sword high like a loyal Japanese samurai, and ran straight towards Helena.

But she had obviously reached her limit and her running speed slowed down a lot. When she rushed to Helena, the huntress had been waiting for a long time.

She raised her hand to block the katana, then raised her knee and struck the ninja hard in the liver.

The ninja spat out a mouthful of acid, his hands lost strength, and he subconsciously let go of the samurai sword.

Then, Helena punched out with her abnormally large gloves, hitting the ninja right in the chest.

The ninja was knocked flying and crashed into the ship's guardrail. She finally fell to the ground, fainting and losing consciousness.

Helena breathed heavily, she put her hands down, happy for her victory, but there were too many people around her, and she was too embarrassed to jump up to celebrate.

The noisy ship that was still sinking finally quieted down. The suppression here basically represented a basic victory for the police station.

In the distance, the Batwing was still cooperating with the police's speedboat to shuttle across the sea, tacitly finishing off the mercenaries who had not yet boarded the ship.

NO49. It’s really just a coincidence

In a sparsely populated community on the island of Migania in Gotham, people cried out in despair, but soon calmed down.

Ordinary citizens in the community had already closed their doors and windows as if they were familiar with the situation. They believed that these screams were just gang fights as usual, and at most a few mafia members would die. As long as they behaved themselves, they would not be involved.

Some citizens rubbed their hands and hid in their rooms. It was already the end of March, but the temperature had dropped again for some reason.

Some people even wrapped themselves in quilts again; the cold made them dream of last Christmas.

In a secret basement deep in the community, a group of people were frozen in ice like amber. Victor stood in the crowd, wearing a power armor that showed off his figure.

According to V, this is armor she modified by combining the shape of locust. It is like a powered exoskeleton and has a great effect on physical condition.

Victor didn't understand all this, but he was very touched by the fact that V was willing to refer to locusts when modifying his armor, as he knew how much Miss V hated bugs.

He used his homemade scanning gun to check every corner of the base. Unexpectedly, in addition to some props stored in the base, he also found several green question mark-shaped trophies in the secret compartments of the floor tiles.

"Do you think this matter has something to do with the Riddler?" Victor turned his upper body, then touched his neck which could move freely, and asked the other person who was still moving in the room.

"Although the Riddler is indeed a troublesome guy, I think this is just a coincidence." Barbara Gordon, wearing a heavy down jacket, walked up to Mr. Freeze and looked at the two trophies he found.

"Look, there's dust here. It looks like it's been here for at least three months, and the remnants of Bane occupied this place a month ago." Barbara wiped the dust from the secret cabinet with her hand.

The Riddler hid thousands of trophies, and he himself might not even remember where he hid them. Although Batman has basically collected them all after months of hard work, there is no guarantee that some will slip through the net.

"Take it back and give it to your father. It should be able to exchange it for a reward." Victor put the trophy into Barbara's arms.

At the beginning, the trophy was a challenge from the Riddler to Batman. If Batman dared to ask outsiders for help, he would immediately reveal the privacy of the citizens hidden in the trophy.

But now that the Riddler has been arrested, there is no need to care about his rules of the game. The police station has issued a reward to the entire city, and anyone who finds the trophy and reports it will receive a bonus.

However, although Barbara accepted the trophy handed to her by Victor, she did not show an expression of getting rich: "As a civil servant, my father will not give me a bonus from the police station, but he will be very happy."

Victor was not interested in asking about Barbara's family affairs. He turned around again and shone the scanner gun like a flashlight on a washing machine-like device behind him.

"Is this the... machine that controls the submarine?" Victor asked.

Barbara took out a smartphone that was not from this era, fiddled with it with her fingers, and then nodded.

"That's right, we made the right choice."

Strictly speaking, today is Miss Barbara's first day on the job after joining V's team, and she is lucky to be put to great use.

The submarine brigade is remotely controlled, and the remote control device will definitely have a signal. Barbara followed the signal flow and found the Bane stronghold hidden in this community.

While the fighting was raging in Gotham Bay on the front line, she brought Mr. Freeze to this stronghold and paralyzed the submarine army's driving system at the root.

"Then my mission is accomplished." Mr. Freeze took the scanner gun with ease and twisted his neck with ease.

He really liked the head-turning feature that Valerie had designed into his armor.

Barbara looked at Mr. Freeze's appearance and felt a little curious. She really wanted to ask if Mr. Freeze's new armor was modeled after Kamen Rider.

But she still held back. As a new employee on her first day at work, it would be better not to be too offensive when she didn't know her colleague's personality.

Victor walked to the remote control, reached out his hand and wiped off the frost on it.

"Have you heard of the Lisibu Group?" Mr. Freeze turned around and asked.

"It's a very famous military-industrial enterprise. I think I've heard of it." What Barbara said was not a long time ago. "Just a few days ago, the news of the company's bankruptcy was everywhere on the street."

"The remnants of Bane bought weapons from them?" Mr. Freeze asked in surprise.

"I'm not sure...it could have been stolen." Barbara guessed, stroking her chin.

……

The war in Gotham Bay has come to an end. After the main culprit, the target, and even the command center have been suppressed, the remaining thugs are nothing more than a mob.

The sun shone on the sparkling sea, which looked very peaceful and harmonious, with no sign of the dire situation that it had been in just a few minutes ago.

Four tunnel boring machines are still parked on the shore. These expensive giants stand like statues that were built here.

The mercenaries on the sea have been completely routed and can be easily defeated by the police alone. Batman finally has some free time.

He first drove the Batwing to a secret place, simply cleaned up the corn flakes that were spilled on the ground, then jumped off the Batwing as if nothing had happened, spread his cloak in the air, and flew to the side of the shield machine surrounded by a cordon.

Sheriff Bullock is directing his men to further seal off the scene. The war has entered its final stages, and they cannot allow Bane's remnants to have a chance to return the same way.

Batman landed silently behind Sheriff Bullock and deliberately made some noise.

"Oh! It's Batman..." Bullock felt mixed emotions when he saw this famous superhero standing behind him in broad daylight. "What's the matter?"

Batman wanted to ignore the police except Gordon as before, but looking at the police team who were methodically blocking the scene under Bullock's organization, he still spoke: "TBM, give us thirty minutes."

Batman's words made Bullock silent for a moment, but after hesitating for a moment, he finally nodded in agreement: "The government won't agree, I will pretend I haven't seen you."

Batman didn't say anything else. He passed Bullock and walked straight towards the TBM.

The shield machine is one of the most advanced high-tech facilities commonly found in modern society and is often used to dig subway tunnels. In today's society, there are only a handful of countries that can independently build shield machines.

The mere remnants of Bain, even when their boss was still around, might not have been able to obtain a tunnel boring machine. It was obvious that some deeper force was funding this organization.

Batman walked under the shield machine and looked up at the giant in front of him, as if he saw a deeper darkness behind it.

NO50. It’s finally coming?

Although the specific process is unknown, the thugs who drove the tunnel boring machines were caught by the police who stayed on the shore, and the three machines that drilled out of the ground were empty shells.

Compared to last Christmas, the Gotham Police Department can be said to have achieved efficiency that was unimaginable in the past. At least it is no longer a drag.

Batman's investigation of the tunnel boring machine was very purposeful. He walked to several fixed positions of each machine and checked them one by one.
