Chapter 101: The Return of the Old Gods

Standing there, unconsciously with tears on his face, Dick just stood there, watching the explosion engulf the chemical plant, along with the Joker, Thomas Elliott, and Curvin. And Batman didn't bother his eldest son, just stood there with him until the fire slowly went out, and finally, the end of the sky began to show the whiteness of the fish's belly, and the long-lost sun rose from the sea level, and the sun shone all the way to Gotham along the surface of the sea.

The city, which has been under clouds all year round, has also ushered in the dawn after experiencing a new round of darkness. When the sun shines on the city of Gotham, everything seems to be different, people's mood begins to become comfortable, full of motivation for the new day, for Gotham at this time, sunshine is the best spice, and at this time, Batman also stepped forward and patted his eldest son on the shoulder.

"No, I'm fine," Dick said, wiping tears from his face.

"I know, I'm just saying, as the guy said, Gotham needs us more than ever."

"But he's now..."

After a battle, no matter how sluggish Dick is, he understands that Curvin is definitely problematic in the events of Naxino City, and how can a person who can do this for Gotham City be a criminal who kills superheroes. And he also believes that Batman must have sensed that something was wrong, and because of this, he didn't understand why Curvin was leaving, with Batman by his side, many problems would be much simpler, Justice League? Batman said to protect you, Superman doesn't dare to talk too much!

"He has a reason for him to leave, and we have something we have to do, don't say anything, solve the problem first."

Batman also understood what Dick was trying to say, but before Dick could finish speaking, he interrupted Dick's words. There are some things that can only be known by oneself, and once you say it, Cowen is not the only one who is dangerous, and Batman understands this very well. Especially in this Gotham Rebellion, although I usually always say in the Justice League that Gotham is my own territory, don't come to yourself if you have nothing to do, and don't come to yourself if you have something.

But this time, he was almost shut up, Gotham was almost flattened, Superman didn't appear, and neither did Flash. The two fastest guys in the Justice League are like sinking into the sea, which is unusual in itself, and after listening to Batman's words, Dick also understood what it meant, and nodded heavily at his old father, and then left the chemical factory with him.

And on the day Gotham City was reborn, it also meant that the obstacles created by Thomas Elliott to isolate Gotham from the world had disappeared, and the military that had been stationed outside also entered Gotham City for the first time. The military, who had previously been unable to carry out armed liberation due to threats, entered the Sin City with the utmost vigilance, but when they saw everything inside Gotham, they were also stunned by the well-behaved citizens of Gotham.

Although some were surprised by the good performance of the citizens of Gotham, the military stationed in the city still fulfilled their responsibilities and took charge of order in Gotham City, but the chaos that should have been expected did not appear, and only a group of citizens who kept to themselves and cooperated with the military.

From this day on, Gotham entered another phase, another new phase that flourished. In this Gotham riot, the Gotham citizens as the protagonist played the greatest role, without their help, no matter how much Curvin and Batman guided, in the face of a large number of mercenaries, gang members, mobs, plus a group of self-degraded Gotham citizens, even if they defeated the villain group led by Thomas Elliott, it was just to restore Gotham to its original appearance.

But now, even if Curvin is not there, even if Batman retreats into the background, Gotham, who has restored order, will not be the same as before. The Gotham police officers who patrol the streets are always late dozens of minutes after the incident, or they simply choose to turn a blind eye, on the contrary, they will call the police as soon as they receive the police call, and if they encounter them during the street patrol, they will rush forward as soon as they encounter them.

Because of the current Gotham, those citizens are the goals they are fighting for, and they are also their strongest backing. The once arrogant gang members no longer dare to show their rampant faces on the streets, they are like every villain who walks in the dark and does unscrupulous things, they have to hide and wrap themselves, for fear that because of their gaffes, they will be selected as a day trip to the Gotham Police Station, and the lucky audience of the Black Gate Prison will stay for free all year round, and by the way, there will be a pair of rose gold handcuffs souvenir.

On the fifteenth day of the military's entry into Gotham City, Gotham rarely did not have a bat searchlight on the Gotham Police Station building during these fifteen days, a full fifteen days! But in the fifteen days when the bat searchlights were not lit, there was no chaos in Gotham, and the citizens of Gotham cooperated with the government's policy during the day, and Wayne Enterprises' tender project was used to rebuild their city.

In the evening, after relaxing after work, groups of citizens drank a few glasses of wine in restaurants and bars, boasting about what happened fifteen days ago, or the trivial things in life today, fortunately, and finally clinking glasses, everything is in the wine, drink!

Wayne Manor, in Dick's room, Dick, who still didn't remember Covin's name, sat at his desk and used a typewriter to record the events of the past fifteen days in Gotham. On the blackboard, the edited photos were plastered with news, including Makovia, Los Angeles, Naxino, Gotham, which were indicated by arrows, and in the center, his name was his name, and there was a sketch of Cowen with a question mark.

During this time, while Dick was recuperating and recuperating, he was also combing through the memories of Kamen Rider in his mind, although Dr. Manhattan used the mother box that fused the power of Cowen's ten knights as a medium. Every time an alien knight takes some of Kewen's knightly power, it will deepen the memory modification of people in the real world, erase all of Kewen's deeds as a Kamen Rider, and refill some of the new memories.

I want to push Kewen to the opposite side of the world in this way, but there are some things that cannot be solved by modifying my memory. Just like the bond between Cowen and Dick, even if Dr. Manhattan modifies his memory, at the most critical moment, Dick still chooses to merge with Cowen, and still becomes a two-person W, and when Cowen leaves, he will shed tears.

All this shows how important this partner who still can't remember his name is to him, and all he has to do now is to find out what is different. Remembering the name of his partner, and the enemies he is facing now, and then going to help him, this is what Dick thinks now, typing, just recording what happened in Gotham for fifteen days, because this is the end of him and Curwen working so hard to save Gotham.

At the very least, he had to record it, and when he got his memory back, he would be able to hand over this achievement to Ke Wen, and let him know that he didn't get nothing by fighting so hard.

"You know, sorting through clues here won't help him."

Just as Dick was looking at the blackboard, Batman, or Bruce Wayne, who had taken off his uniform to be exact, stood outside the door and said to Dick.

"I know, but I've got to keep a record of it so I don't forget the things I used to fight with him again. By the way, I haven't asked you how you've been feeling lately. ”

In response to his old father's complaint, Dick also asked a rhetorical question, which made Bruce stunned for a moment.

"What does it feel?"

"It's the fifteenth day that Gotham hasn't had a bat searchlight, because of what happened before, and those who have been pulled out to criticize now understand that there are some things that can't be done. One by one, they contributed and paid for it, put resources on your side, and started the reconstruction of Gotham, including Arkham Asylum, and you, it seems that you haven't appeared as Batman for fifteen days, it's just Bruce Wayne, isn't this feeling strange. ”

Standing there, Bruce, who had been silent for a long time, also walked to the window, looking at the long-lost sunshine outside the window, this kind of clear sky and good weather in Gotham City lasted for half a month, blue sky, white clouds, sun, breeze, is what Gotham has been looking forward to, rare, Bruce smiled on his face.

"I always feel a little unaccustomed and lonely, but I also feel very relieved, I was left there from the night my parents died, but now, I seem to be able to come out. In addition, the citizens of Gotham will not forget what he did, and it was Kamen Rider who saved the city, so let's go. ”

After saying that he had not traveled in Gotham as Batman in the past fifteen days, Bruce also greeted his eldest son there, and then turned around and prepared to leave. It's just that Dick couldn't help but ask rhetorically after hearing another layer of meaning in Bruce's words.

"Wait, you said the citizens of Gotham won't forget who saved the city!"

"You'll know in a moment, and also, maybe Gotham doesn't need Batman anymore, but the world still needs it, and your partner needs it too, let's go, to find out the truth behind this, you can't do anything in Gotham..."

The sound of the father and son talking slowly thinned out the door, and the sunlight that came in from the window shone on Dick's desk, and a photo taken from Makovia, as the outsider team set up by Cowen and Dick to solve the Three Palaces Demon was placed there. That was the first time that Kewen was recruited by the Justice League and went out on a long-distance mission, because Dr. Manhattan modified the real world, and Cowen, who was originally in the group photo, was naturally erased by Dr. Manhattan.

It's just that now, in this photo where the sun is shining, the original erased position is also faintly revealed.

On the other hand, in the development period of Gotham, the city entered a new stage, once again defeated the alien knights, and left with the help of the explosion, Cowen, who also appeared in another city with Wally, not in Canterlot, but in New York. To be precise, after leaving Gotham, Kewen didn't let Wally take him directly to Canterlot, even though he knew that there must be an alien knight waiting for him over there, but compared to the alien knights, those new gods of the Apocalypse who were messing around behind the alien knights were the trouble.

Sitting outside a café store, Curwen sat there drinking tea and watching the pedestrians coming and going on the street, while at the newsstand on the street, Wally, who used his speed to fine-tune his face, was buying several newspapers with his waist clipped to his waist, looking at Curwen who was basking in the sun leisurely. After sighing helplessly, he walked over. Put these newspapers on Ke Wen's desk, and then lay there, helplessly.

"I said, as a targeted victim, you have a good mentality, and you dare to walk around the street so swaggeringly."

"Well, as long as it's not the end of the world, life doesn't have to be the same, besides, it's Kamen Rider who is targeted, what does it have to do with me, I'm a transparent person in this world now, I don't change my body, and the ghost knows who I am, so it's better to take advantage of this loophole and do what we want to do."

For Wally's ridicule, Kewen didn't feel offended, and the current situation is like this, and in the fifteen days since he left Gotham, he has also rarely relaxed himself. Without any activity, he was active here in New York in his original form, and it was obvious that the new gods of the Apocalypse Star did not notice that Kewen was active under his nose.

After responding to Wally's words, Kewen also looked at the newspapers that Wally bought, in the past fifteen days, the news of the city of Gotham has been frequently active in various news sections. It's no wonder that the city, which was originally the penultimate city in the United States, began to change after a big chaos, which is enough to attract people's attention, plus in the past 15 days, the Gotham City Government and Gotham's first enterprise, Wayne Group, have made various deeds that have also been reported by major news sections.

Just like now, when Kewen saw the headline in the front section of this newspaper, he couldn't help but laugh dumbly. Because the headline of the newspaper reads: Wayne Enterprises has partnered with the city government to build a windmill tower in the heart of the city, which will serve as a landmark in Gotham and will also provide 30% of Gotham's electricity. Below the title, a rendering was also released, with a tall tower that reached the sky and a white windmill, so that Ke Wen didn't know what to say.

He put the newspaper on the table, drank the coffee in his cup, settled the bill, and got up to leave.

"What are you going to do here?" Wally, who was on the side, saw Kewen get up, and couldn't help but wonder about his next move.

In the past fifteen days, he was a tool man, who was ordered by Ke Wen to buy newspapers, buy three meals, and by the way, as a mount, and wander around the streets of New York, but he didn't understand why he did it. It's not that he didn't think that once the speeders entered the state of speed, they were even more perverted than Einstein when they were fast-thinking, but it was like Superman and Batman going offline as soon as they partnered with him.

There is a person next to him who is responsible for using his brain, why do you have to use your brain, listen to others, A is done, what is the use of using your brain to think so much, you don't have to do it. Wally is the same at this time, what's the use of entering the thinking speed, anyway, now Kewen is the talker, he only needs to run with his legs open, and then he can solve the problem, then let's run.

"I've been stepping on the point for half a month, it's time to leave, but let's talk about it first, we may be on the line with an old friend, are you sure you won't be recognized, or say, I'll solve it alone."

Turning his head, Kewen looked at the building called Goode Games Company standing in Manhattan, and naturally knew that this was the base camp of the new gods. After all, the most dangerous place is the safest place, this company that was controlled by the new god of the Apocalypse Star with a kind grandmother before, although it withdrew from people's attention after the Darkest Night incident, but it was precisely because of this that Ke Wen noticed that if there was anyone who could be used as the base camp of the Apocalypse Star, it would be the only place.

"Ha, if it's just this, then you don't need to worry, I'm the fastest person who can use the speed force the most, as for fighting, it's okay, as long as I change my clothes, no one knows that I did it~"

"Heh, whatever you want."

For Wally's show-off, Kewen could only smile helplessly, and then, the two of them also disappeared into the crowd with the crowd.

Night, in the internal secret room of the headquarters of Goode Games, Dissad, who left Gotham City, also appeared in the secret room, along with the Steppenwolf who was responsible for the Darkseid Godhead erosion plan. At this time, Dissad was playing everything that had happened in Gotham in the mother box, including the combination of Curvin and Dick, and at the Wayne Enterprise Building, he kicked Elliott, who had the form of the Extreme Eternal Sun, with golden wings.

"Naxinno City, Gotham, he has already solved two, it seems useless to take his knight power, if this continues, are we helping him, or are we rectifying him?"

Dissad's face was a little ugly, after all, looking at Ke Wen, who was supposed to be arranged by himself and others, gradually blackened, but smashed the conspiracy with strong strength and continuous fighting, it didn't look like a good sign no matter how he looked at it. It's just that Steppenwolf didn't get angry at Dissad's accusation, still looking at the mother box floating in front of him, and the symbols representing Faiz and W on it had been lit, and he just looked at the mother box and said there.

"Don't be so nervous, Dissad, how hopeful he is now, how desperate he will be when the time comes, everything is not a foregone conclusion, you are smarter than me, but you seem to be much more pessimistic than me, so you can't complete the second stage."

"You're smart, you're optimistic, then tell me what to do next!"

"Don't worry, it's not just us who are involved in this game, there are people helping us."

"Who do you want to talk about?"

"Just look at it."

Late at night, in New York, at the World United Nations building, Wonder Woman Diana, who had once again debated with the P5 delegates, sat and watched the news on TV. After seeing his lover Bruce Wayne talking about Gotham's post-disaster reconstruction in front of the camera, he smiled lightly. It's not like she's unaware of what happened in Gotham, but it's like Superman can't come because that Apocalypse's Kalibuck interferes.

As she prepares to leave, Diana is also entangled in trivialities, and her purpose in the United Nations building is to find a new place for her people on the paradise island. The once paradise island was destroyed by her father Zeus during the darkest night because of her battle with her dead brother Iason. The destruction of Paradise Island is both a weakening and a freedom for the Amazonian warriors who inhabit Paradise Island.

Without the protection of the divine power of Paradise Island, those Amazonian female warriors who inhabit Paradise Island have lost the protection of immortality, and like ordinary people, they are born, old, sick and die. Just like Diana, as a demigod bloodline, she is an immortal herself, but in the darkest night, she sacrificed her blood as a demigod to defeat Iason, although in the end, Iason transferred her blood to her, so that Diana still has divine powers, but she also lost her immortal qualifications, angered Zeus, and this protection was naturally withdrawn.

But this is fine, at least she can grow old with her lover, Diana feels relaxed and thinks about how to continue tomorrow's meeting with the P5 representatives. She didn't want much, a place where her people could integrate into society, a place where they could freely choose their future shelter.

After some careful consideration, Diana got up, stretched, and walked out of the United Nations building. She needs to relax now, a glass of wine and a piece of food can make her sleep more comfortable this night. And just as Diana walked out of the United Nations building, a blue butterfly passed behind her, and the blue wings that gently fanned with some unknown fluctuation began to hook up with an unknown space with Diana as a medium.

Soon, Diana, who was walking on the road, also felt the oppression in the air, the originally cloudless night sky was shrouded in clouds, and the heavy clouds pressed towards the city below like a city wall. This kind of coercion also made Diana feel that something was wrong, she had felt this coercion, and she understood where this coercion came from and who it came from, but what she couldn't understand was why it was now, why it was here!

"No, it can't be! I've wiped everything out with my divine blood, and you shouldn't be here! ”

Diana, who was a little out of shape, looked at the clouds in the sky and didn't know what to do for a while. But the clouds in the sky were not dispelled by Diana's gaffe, and the thick clouds gathered over New York, and with the blue electric flash, a lightning bolt broke through the clouds and landed on New York's Central Park. Fortunately, it was late at night, and Central Park was already empty, and as the thunderbolt fell, a blackened hole was created in the grass, and three figures also walked out of it.

The leader looked around at this world-famous big city, and was silent for a long time before he said: "The world is filthy again!" ”
