Chapter 273: Infiltrating Gotham City
The three of them are not procrastinators, plus S.H.I.E.L.D. has ready-made equipment, the three of them set off immediately, and they did not borrow the power of S.H.I.E.L.D., after all, S.H.I.E.L.D. has just been formed, even if One-Eyed and a group of elites who have obtained the template of the comics, film and television agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. are very powerful, it is impossible to complete the rectification of a secret agent organization in such a short time, after all, they cannot tolerate any mistakes in their industry, because this little deviation will cost people.
The one-eyed man can't guarantee that the actions of the three of them will not be leaked, just like he asked Yan Xu and the others to carry out European missions outside S.H.I.E.L.D., S.H.I.E.L.D. has too many hidden dangers that have not been eliminated, after all, they themselves are from major intelligence organizations in the United States, and there is even no shortage of military members, and it is inevitable to leak information, so the three of them choose to act alone.
Along the way, changing cars, and eliminating traces, Batman and Black Widow showed Yan Xu how a good agent acts.
Although it was tedious, they didn't waste much time along the way, and arrived in Gotham City a little earlier than scheduled.
The terrain of Gotham City is very special, it is surrounded by water, the traffic is extremely inconvenient, and I don't know how such a city developed into a megacity with millions of people, and it is estimated that Batman's business empire has contributed a lot.
In addition to the two bridges, Gotham City mainly relies on dock water transportation, so there are many docks nearby.
But now the entire communication between Gotham City and the outside world has been intercepted by super criminals, both bridges have been blown up, all docks are guarded by heavily armed criminals, and only one dock is still open, after all, Gotham City is a city with millions of people, and the daily consumption of supplies is simply astronomical, piled together is a mountain.
Moreover, the materials stored in a modern city like this can meet the consumption of a week at most, and if the city is really completely locked down for half a month, there will be a famine, not to mention those villains and gunmen who take advantage of the fire to rob, and even the super criminals will be eaten raw by millions of hungry and crazy citizens.
Gotham City's supercriminals have always been known for their high intelligence, so naturally they will not do such stupid things, so they opened a dock to transport supplies to ensure the minimum consumption of the city, so that these starving citizens do not have the courage to resist, and then slowly wear down their will to achieve the ultimate goal.
The idea of super criminals naturally can't be hidden from the military, but these super criminals have set up too many countermeasures, and if they really want to attack, they must be prepared to pay the price of 100,000 people.
This kind of casualties, not to mention the military bosses, even if the president in the White House is taken out and chopped up, he can't bear it, the United States has never killed so many people except in World War II, if there are casualties of this scale in the country, hehe, the people of the United States will definitely use all kinds of demonstrations and protests to replace all those high-ranking old men.
Therefore, in the face of pressure from all sides, the military can only carry out passive defense, except for the bridge, each pier has been used as a military base, completely controlled by the military, barbed wire, mines, searchlights, machine gun bunkers, patrolling Humvees, trained soldiers, and at least tens of thousands of people have been mobilized to see the scale, which shows how hot the United States is in the face of the Gotham City incident, if there is a chance, they will definitely pull all the super criminals in Gotham City to shoot targets.
In the eyes of the military, since they can't get in, they naturally can't let the people inside out, so it's fair, but they still underestimate those super criminals, anyway, Yan Xu and the three of them are not optimistic about the military's actions at all, so they definitely don't alarm the military and sneak in.
The dock was nothing more than a decoration for the trio, and they didn't plan to go there by boat, not to mention that any terrain was not a problem for the trio, so they began to sneak in at dusk.
The time of action is not the opposite of the day, nor does it choose the usual night, but at dusk between black and white, this time is the time to go home from work to eat and rest, even if the staff on duty is also in rotation, plus the sky is not completely dark, vigilance has not been improved, the most suitable for infiltration, of course, this refers to the Black Widow Batman and their top masters, ordinary agents still choose a safer night, at least when they are discovered, they will not be hit as a target.
As soon as Batman wrapped himself in his cape, the whispering propellers on the soles of his feet began to spin and disappeared into the water without causing any fluctuations.
Black Widow is even more powerful, venom gives her a certain ability to transform, for an agent this is no different from hanging, the black widow who turned into a mermaid smiled at Yan Xu and disappeared into the water, even if there is an underwater sonar, it can only detect a big fish.
Yan Xu is not ordinary, his ripple ability can even allow him to walk freely on the water, of course, now he is not ready to play God, so naturally he can't act so blatantly, but he is not weak at all underwater, and his powerful ability makes most of the monitoring methods ineffective against him, and can even help Batman and Black Widow shield the monitoring equipment placed under the water.
His ability is electromagnetic waves, there are several electronic devices in modern times that can avoid the interference of electromagnetic waves, only the penguins tamed by the penguin people are a little troublesome, Yan Xu's ability does not work, but Batman has been prepared for this for a long time, and released some special bait to lure away those penguins with cameras and remote-controlled bombs on their backs.
Quietly swam to the other side, the three of them did not choose the sewer outlet to enter, although it was hidden, but it was played badly in film and television works, the ventilation duct and sewer, for the infiltrator, it was the same as the windows and doors of their own house, they didn't think that those high-IQ super criminals would make such a mistake.
What's more, with their skills, they only need to find a place without a monitor to be able to go ashore, such as the sewage outlet of a factory.
At least not the sewers, isn't it.
Batman puts on a mask-like breathing apparatus for himself, and this is a chemical factory, where the waste is not only a pungent smell, but sometimes a deep breath can kill someone.
Taking out the hook gun, Batman rose quickly, and Black Widow had already climbed up like a predatory spider with the help of the shadows, only Yan Xu was unhurried and relied on the power of ripples to walk up step by step.
The three of them went up easily by their own means, and found that the entire factory was empty, not even a single security guard was left, and recently the entire Gotham City was in chaos, and the factory had long been suspended, only the cameras were still in their posts, but under the manipulation of Yan Xu, these cameras also entered the rest time.
However, just in case, the three of them planned to find a place to repair it, so they hid in a nearby factory.
"What is this? A Gotham City specialty? Yan Xu suddenly overturned the raw material barrels piled up in the factory, revealing the strange metal cans behind him.
Batman pulls out an unknown device for examination, and finds that it is a special poison gas, and immediately collects some residue for analysis.
"It's a new type of fear gas for the scarecrow, I haven't seen it, it takes some time to analyze, and it takes special equipment to produce an antidote." Batman is no stranger to the fear of scarecrows, he has encountered it several times, and he has cracked it many times, but because the other party is constantly changing, he is a more difficult enemy, and he is best at causing large-scale chaos.
"I'm afraid there are enough people here to envelop half of Gotham City and cause panic among hundreds of thousands of people." Yan Xu scanned through the ripples and found that an astonishing amount of fear poison gas was stored in the entire factory, and he was shocked, if all of this leaked out, the entire Gotham City would probably be destroyed.
"There's even the Lady of Fear technique, it looks like she's teamed up with the Scarecrow." Batman is all too familiar with these super criminals, and even if it's just the fear of poison gas, he gets a lot of information from them.
"Not every super criminal is Iron Man, there is a military factory behind it, how did they produce so much terrifying poison gas?" Black Widow didn't find many clues, but she still found the biggest problem.
"It seems that the supercriminals of Gotham City are not alone and have a lot of supporters." Yan Xu is not surprised by this, there are those guys who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and providing a batch of fear poison gas is nothing at all.
"We need more intelligence." Putting away the equipment, Batman turned to the two of them.
"Find the American team first, they infiltrated Gotham City early, but they have lost contact, I believe they have the information we need." Black Widow said to Batman, believing that he would make the right choice, after all, no matter what, the American team is a big force, even Batman does not dare to say that he can be a super criminal in Gotham City alone, this is a three-digit super criminal, not counting their subordinates and other forces fishing in troubled waters.
Gotham City is full of Batman's equipment, but this time they mainly sneaked into it and did not use the Batmobile.
Gotham City has a population of several million, you can imagine the size of the city, it is obviously impossible to rely on three people to find the missing object in this city, they must have a goal, and the target provided by Batman is the hiding place of those super criminals.
"The Iceberg Restaurant, the penguin man's nest, is like a bird's nest, and the penguin man will not leave here easily." Batman took out the binoculars to scout the Iceberg Restaurant, and found that the taste of the restaurant was lower than usual, so he looked down and thought for a moment, and then looked up and said to Yan Xu and the two.
The main body of the Iceberg Restaurant is Antarctica, so it has installed high-power refrigeration equipment and produced a large amount of ice, similar to an ice rink, so you must wear a very warm coat if you want to eat there.
It's normal for the temperature to be low in this environment, but Batman found that the temperature in the Iceberg Restaurant today is about ten degrees lower than the previous low temperatures, which is completely unsuitable for human activities, let alone dining, unless the guests are all polar bears or penguins.
