Chapter 82 Who is the Yellow Bird?
Chapter 82 Who is the Yellow Bird?
Jason followed the Assassin's League with a helpless look on his face. Countless pairs of feet trampled the water they passed by, and the assassins moved around them, performing a black-clad parade in a city full of decadence and extravagance.
It's not that he doesn't want to see Damian get into trouble. On the one hand, there's really no need to sacrifice his life. On the other hand, he's quite interested in the Lazarus Pool that Talia revealed.
As soon as I heard about that thing, I knew it was related to Fengrao. As a Cloud Rider, I really have no resistance to these evil creatures that want to destroy Fengrao.
He looked at Damian, who had a sour face, and the collar representing a time bomb flashed around his neck:
"Hey, are you really giving up just like that?"
I don't know what Talia was thinking, but she put shackles on her own son and treated this wild child with great courtesy. It seems that even the people in the remote Middle Eastern areas know of Luo Fu's reputation.
But this is not logic, because she still had the audacity to kidnap him, or hold him hostage. This is not a reason not to put a time bomb on him.
"Shut up."
Damian's temper was very low, and he seemed to have other plans in mind, as his fingers kept rubbing on the handle of the samurai sword.
"Well, I hope Dick can send my friends away first. As far as I'm concerned, they shouldn't be involved in this."
"Are you still in the mood to care about them now?"
Damian was very unhappy with Jason's dismissive attitude, as if being kidnapped by the League of Assassins was not a big deal.
Jason just glanced at Damian's expression before answering with understanding: "Now I really believe that you know nothing. But that's not entirely true. Maybe you just don't know."
The team suddenly stopped. Jason looked up and saw Talia raised a hand to stop the action. He became interested and dragged Damian to the front of the team.
A gloomy-faced, skinny old man stood in front of Talia. He had a sinister look in his eyes, but Jason could keenly judge the relationship between them from their appearance.
"Grandfather," Damian called him.
"Talia, what are you doing? Are you going to bring Rove's people back to the Assassin's League?"
Lei Xiaogu asked this question. He had ruled the Assassin's League for nearly a thousand years, so all the assassins did not dare to make any unusual moves. They all stared at Talia, neither taking action nor defecting, quietly waiting for the father and daughter to decide the true winner.
And Talia just raised an eyebrow: "Isn't this what you asked for? Father, when you heard that Jason was resurrected, weren't you overjoyed and asked us to bring him back?"
"The premise is that I don't know the relationship between him and Luofu!" Lei Xiaogu roared. An organization that has been passed down for thousands of years must have its cornerstone, and the Lazarus Pool at the bottom of the alliance that possesses the power of resurrection and immortality is everything to the Assassin's League.
"You should be grateful for my luck, father. If not, how could we see you here? After all, you have completely disappeared since we parted in the Middle East."
"Just to force me to show up? You'll destroy the entire Assassin's League!"
Lei Xiaogu accused Talia in this way. He admitted that he underestimated her ambition. He did not expect that Talia would give up the Lazarus Pool with her own hands in order to completely control the Assassin's League and completely eliminate his backers.
"Then you will destroy it before me." Talia did not retreat at all: "Father, the curse of the demon body is the same for all immortals. You are already in danger, and you even agreed to that plan!"
"Can I ask, what is your plan?"
Jason raised his hand. As the special guest of this show, he felt that he had the right to speak. Although he was indeed prepared to infiltrate the Assassin's League and destroy the Lazarus Pool, he still felt a little embarrassed to have his tricks exposed.
"It doesn't matter if I tell you. Our mission has already ended anyway."
Lei Xiaogu was surprisingly easy to talk to. He revealed his conspiracy like a classic villain:
"Our mission is just to transfer you away, Jason. You are too much of a nuisance, but you are actually Luo Fu's man. No one dares to be hostile to Luo Fu before the plan is completed."
Jason frowned. "Impossible. You had countless opportunities to do it when we first entered Gotham. Why go through so much trouble?"
"Because at that time we didn't know you were the Red Hood. My men only recognized your face. It wasn't until you actually raided the Black Mask's lair that everyone knew your whereabouts."
Talia explained.
So it was just an accident that two things got combined into one, right?
The rumbling thunder resounded through the sky, and the father and daughter fought each other with the power of the lightning. Every move and every style was extremely cruel, but their movements were surprisingly similar, like two symmetrical shadows.
"Look at the bright side. If they die together, you will automatically become the boss here."
Jason, who was forced to sit in the special seat, comforted Damian, who had been complaining from beginning to end.
An argument broke out between the Bat family and Silver Branch Spider-Man over what to do next.
Spider-Man advocates finding Jason, as they won't leave Gotham without him; but Dick and Tim both advocate letting them go first since they know what heavy things they are carrying.
"I can't abandon Jason. He fell into that woman's trap because of me. We have to save him!" Spider-Man insisted, and Silver Branch also said that she would never give up any of her companions.
But Dick and Tim have different opinions. As a substitute Batman, Dick really wants to knock Spider-Man out and send him away right now, but Spider-Man is much tougher than him:
"Tim and I both know the location of the League of Assassins, and you are too conspicuous. Going there will only cause trouble. Besides, almost all the underground forces are rushing here now. The lives of Gotham residents are also important."
Tim showed the satellite surveillance map in his hand at the right time. Several bright arrows were pointing directly at Gotham. Each arrow represented a force, and the slowest of them would arrive before dawn.
"This is almost a war,"
Tim analyzed step by step.
"Both the FBL and SHIELD turned a blind eye to this large-scale mobilization of forces. It's obvious that they had already privately instigated this behavior. They didn't hunt you down openly because they were concerned about Jason's identity. No one wants to be accused of hunting down Ambassador Rove."
"But Jason has already..."
"That's exactly what I wanted to say. Jason's transfer to the League of Assassins was not a simple matter in itself. It was probably part of a large-scale operation. Damian was simply used. He may not even know what he is doing now."
But from another perspective, Damian is the only person who can do such a thing. As Bruce's biological son, Jason's younger brother, and a minor who has received improper family education, he will not die even if his plan is exposed in the end.
"I now suspect that the Justice League was transferred to participate in the Mechanical War on purpose." Dick said gloomily.
"What mechanical war? Why does the entire Justice League need to be mobilized?" Spider-Man was also confused.
"It was said that the vanguard of a company developing the universe had an omnic rebellion and massacred the local indigenous people. The company offered a high reward to deal with the crisis. B thought there was something fishy going on, so he led a large force to investigate."
Tim briefly summarized the miniature gold and machinery, then shifted the focus to the present:
"So you must leave Gotham immediately before all the forces arrive. Fortunately, Jason's previous judgment is valuable. The smuggling line in Black Mask's hands is extremely hidden. As long as we are fast enough, no one will be able to find you."
Faced with a force that was even using the entire country's strength to hunt them down, Spider-Man had to compromise. Tim also repeatedly assured that no one dared to touch Rove's people, and Jason could only go to the League of Assassins to have a few cups of tea.
The thick clouds rubbed and collided in the air, brewing thunder that tore through the curtain of darkness. The originally soft autumn rain had turned into a heavy rainstorm, beating the ground like drumbeats.
Tim calculated the location of Black Mask based on the path Damian was taking. The poor boss of Gotham's underground forces was now huddled in a trash can at the corner of the alley, his white suit and shirt stained with unknown rotten food.
Dick pulled Black Mask out of his sleep without mercy and used a combination of Bat Punches on him to force him to reveal the smuggling route. Then Black Mask was tied up again and locked in a small dark room that only the Bat family knew about.
"Okay, this will ensure that no third party will know about this smuggling route before you leave. I will use the surveillance to make sure that Black Mask does not make any unusual movements."
Tim explained.
The owl was cooing on the tree, the amber-gold luster flowed in its eyes, and the exposed skin was grayish white like a dead person. This night, all its claws walked out of the maze, specifically waiting for the manager of this city.
Their mission is to prevent the heroes of this city from getting involved in things that they shouldn't be involved in.
They found Batman.
"Let's go! Tim, take them away first!" Dick spread out his bat wings to block the Claws' sight, but Spider-Man and Silverbranch were already exposed to them, so Dick could only try his best to delay some time.
Tim didn't waste any words. He nodded at Dick. Time passed by every second. In order to avoid a catastrophe that would eventually destroy the entire America and even the genes of all human short-lived species, he had to fulfill his duty.
The player wanted to help, but was also rejected by Dick.
Tim took the two of them to the dock of Gotham Bay. The rain almost soaked everyone. The cold wind of the summer night had become biting and cold, but what really made everyone feel cold was the port that was blatantly closed by the government.
At this point, the guys suspected to be the Luofu ambassadors have been completely transferred away, and the government has completely given up on pretending. They didn't send out police cars, which was already a sign of weakness, so what's the point of closing the port?
"Can I fly there using a private spaceship?" the player asked. Isn't the difficulty a bit too high? How about using some cheats?
Just when Yinzhi was about to dispatch the Rare and Incomparable, Tim stopped him:
"No, all aviation areas have also been blocked. They even stopped all aviation flights tonight. I have no doubt that they will use all their missiles to shoot down the planes."
"What should I do?" Peter was almost in despair.
Tim gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go back to New York!"
