130, Bane is coming, symbiote test
Just as Batman devotes himself to saving Gotham and fighting the vigilante cause of criminals.
Leo has returned to Star City from Bellife Prison on Jean Charles Island, Louisiana.
As he expected, he gathered a group of vicious criminals and violent elements to form the current low-profile version of the "suicide squad".
The bodyguard and the team's death shooter, Chato Santana, who says no, but is physically honest but honestly chooses to join, Colonel Flegg and Dr. Joan Muon.
After completing this mission, Leo considered going to Midtown to visit Barry Allen, who had been struck by lightning and had been unconscious since then.
However, according to the monitoring of the Sky Eye Society, the future Flash has long been transferred to the interstellar laboratory, although the cutting-edge laboratory, which was once the frontier of the scientific community, was set as a dangerous military area by the military after the particle accelerator exploded and was ordered to be sealed.
However, Dr. Harrison Wells, who is also an investor and manager, did not choose to close the lab, but stayed there with the only two staff members to deal with the follow-up.
And the reason why Barry Allen was transferred from the middle hospital to the interstellar laboratory that he had longed for before.
The reason for this is that the attending doctor believes that this young man, who was unfortunately struck by lightning, is hopeless.
The ECG monitor could not detect Barry Allen's heartbeat, and the other person was unconscious for up to a week with no signs of waking up.
Therefore, although his vital signs remained normal, he had no heartbeat and was in a coma for a long time, which made the doctor determine that the future Flash may be reduced to a vegetative state.
Leo knew the answer to this question.
The hospital was actually misdiagnosed, and the ECG monitor couldn't detect Barry Allen's heartbeat.
That's because his heart was beating so fast that it couldn't be recorded at all.
And the so-called coma should be a reaction brought about by the initial fusion of the body and the speed force.
On the surface, he plays Dr. Harrison Wells, but in private he is actually Albert Swan's reverse lightning, and of course he knows this.
So he finds Barry's adoptive father, Joe, and convinces him to hand over the future Flash to Interstellar Lab for treatment.
"If nothing else, Barry will wake up in nine months, and of course it is not ruled out that he will wake up early."
Leo groaned slightly, and secretly sorted out the timeline.
It's been two months since he left Gotham.
With James Gordon and Batman teamed up, the city's gangsters are having their toughest days ever.
The Maroni family is locked up in the Black Gate Prison, the penguin Copot is huddled in the iceberg restaurant in the Diamond District, and the re-emerging Falcone family tries not to provoke the bat.
It can be said that if there were no clowns who fell in love and killed each other later, there would be no tireless troubles of the Shadow Warrior Alliance, and there would be no frequent appearance of superhumans.
Gotham may be able to restore the stable order and long-lost tranquility of the past with Gordon and Batman working together.
But it's a pity that Batman lost the battle for the soul of Gotham in the original timeline.
The Knight of Light, who had high hopes, flipped into the other side of the coin of fate and walked into the depths of darkness.
"Chaos is like gravity, it only takes a nudge."
As soon as he got off the plane, Leo who was sitting in the car muttered in a low voice.
He called on the resources of the Tianyan Society, but still did not find Bane.
This mercenary with plenty of patience is like a hunting beast hiding in the grass.
I don't know if Batman in this timeline can avoid the pain of his destined broken back
Thinking of this, the corners of Leo's mouth couldn't help but sketch a smile.
"I'd better go back to the manor first and figure out what happened to Schrödinger and the symbiote."
Leo, who was leaning on the back seat of the car, looked at his outstretched palms.
With just one thought, the black liquid hidden under the surface of the body can cover your body in an instant.
"In addition, I have to find a time to test the various data of body increase."
Leo clenched his fists and thought.
Gotham's Diamond District, the kitchen of Iceberg Restaurant.
There are no chefs busy cooking, no hetai in charge of food processing, and no apprentices who are dishwashers.
In the empty and quiet kitchen, there is only a long table, and a group of gangsters sit around.
Before each of them entered, they had to pass through a metal detector door to prevent anyone from bringing a firearm with bad intentions.
And the bodyguards and thugs who traveled with them also stayed outside the Iceberg Restaurant.
These Gotham's gang leaders believe that no one will cause trouble in the Penguins' territory
You must know that the masters of the city's underground world, the Maroni family, have been wiped out and imprisoned in the Black Gate Prison.
Black Mask became a lost dog, hunted down by Sofia Falcone with a bounty, and not long ago fell into the hands of Batman.
used to be the three giants of Gotham, but now only the Penguins are still strong.
This has proved from the side how cautious and superb the gangster who manages the diamond district and is engaged in money laundering and financial credit.
As for Batman
Come on, it's daytime, how could that guy show up
A group of gang leaders who occupy various neighborhoods of Gotham come together with each other.
"Mr. Copote, why did you bring us all here today?"
Johnny, who belongs to the Sabatino family, was the first to ask.
Except a long time ago, during the reign of the Roman Falcone, the Gotham gangs had never been as crowded as they are now.
Even the Gotham Triumvirate, who overthrew Falcone, only occupied a piece of territory and ran an illegal business.
It's still far from truly unifying the city.
"Don't be nervous, Johnny."
At the top of the table is Copote, the penguin.
His eyes, hidden behind the monocle, narrowed, and he glanced at everyone present.
After a few seconds of silence, he slowly spoke: "I brought you all here, not to let Batman wipe us out, let alone to take the opportunity to dominate the entire underground world of Gotham. ”
"I know you've had a hard time lately, and whenever the Gotham Police Department's bat lights come on, the little thugs who do things for us are always scared that Batman will suddenly appear in front of them."
The penguin man lifted the monocle, and the sound paused, and the whole back kitchen was so quiet that it could be heard as if a needle had fallen to the ground.
"Of course, it's not just the thugs who are afraid, it's everyone here too. Otherwise, we wouldn't have set the time for the meeting during the day, and we wouldn't have dared to go to the port terminal at night. ”
The gang leaders sitting in the chairs looked at each other and fell silent.
Although this is a bit hurtful, they have to admit that Colbert the penguin is right.
The city is full of gangsters, those who want to take advantage of the darkness of the night to try to commit crimes, robbery, murder, theft, smuggling who are not afraid of Batman
That damn bastard, when he first started fighting gangs and eradicating evil, no one took him to heart.
But as time passed, the gang began to realize the seriousness of the problem.
Batman is elusive, and he can fly and be invulnerable, like an all-pervasive and terrifying ghost
Once in the port of Westbridge on Sullivan Island, there were more than forty thugs and gunmen in a warehouse.
Even if the Gotham Serious Crime Team is dispatched in person, it may not be able to catch them all.
And then what
Batman appeared.
Half an hour later, the Gotham Police Department easily arrested the gang of gangsters who had lost their ability to resist and put them in a cell.
And before they arrived, these heavily armed gangster thugs either fell unconscious to the ground, or they were seriously injured in multiple places, moaning and wailing weakly.
Over time, everyone knows Batman's habits.
That guy never kills, even if you point a gun at him.
But if you do take out the gun, he will break every bone in your body without mercy, and at the least will make you lie in the hospital for half a week.
Many criminals have experienced this firsthand
"Let's turn the clock back to a year ago, and the police and lawyers in this city didn't dare to provoke any of you."
There was a hint of sarcasm in Colbert's voice.
"But now, Gordon and his gang of serious crime teams, as long as they get the arrest warrant, they can pull everyone here into the police station and invite them to tea."
"And our new district attorney, Harvey Dent, obviously doesn't want to let you go, and it's said that he's already started tracking down the banks where the gangsters deposited money, and he's going to cut off your financial resources, do you know what that means that once you're taken to court, you can't afford to hire a good lawyer, you can't bribe a judge or a jury?"
The owner of the Iceberg Restaurant, he stood up abruptly, his hands propped up on the table.
Copote's voice suddenly rose, and he said in an impassioned tone: "Everyone, Gotham has changed, it is no longer our paradise, and it can no longer make us wanton James Gordon, Harvey Dent, Batman, they will drive us out."
"Mr. Copote, what are you going to do?"
It was the same Johnny who spoke, and he slammed his fist on the table, his eyes spurting with rage.
The words of Copote, the penguin, seemed to provoke the fierce emotions of these gang leaders, and triggered a chorus of hatred and hatred.
Everyone is nodding their heads and cursing at Batman and the Gotham Police Department
"It's simple. We can do Batman."
Cobot took off his monocle and wiped it with his handkerchief.
His answer made the noisy kitchen quiet for a moment.
The heated discussion and cursing, excitement and restlessness just now disappeared in an instant
"Why are you scared that Batman will rush in now, twist off your heads, and when did the Gotham gangsters become such soft eggs"
Copote, the penguin, lowered his head, a hint of contempt in his eyes.
A rabble
If I didn't need a helper, I wouldn't have cooperated with this kind of goods
"Mr. Copote, I've heard that Batman is a monster, and no amount of manpower can get him"
Another black man named Gambot said.
It's not like no one has thought about gathering people to take out Batman before.
But their fate was too tragic, and they were either beaten to the point that they could not take care of themselves, or they were locked up in the Black Gate Prison to collect soap.
There are also some unlucky guys who are accidentally injured by their peers or fall into the pool of the evolution factory.
And Batman himself still haunts the night every day, making criminals fearful.
He was like some kind of spiritual incarnation, undefeatable and unkillable
"This kind of work, of course, has to be done by professionals."
Copote, the penguin, went around in circles and finally got to the point.
He clapped his hands up, and as the applause rang out, heavy footsteps came from outside the door.
A burly, muscular figure calmly walked through the metal detector door.
Tick tick tick
The piercing screams that erupted did not make the other party's pace stop in any way.
"Let me introduce you, Mr. Bane, the Batman Terminator I hired."
Star City, Twin Star Tower.
In the secret base of the underground closed area, Leo stands in the distance and faces a fully automatic machine gun.
He took a deep breath and looked calm.
As soon as the machine gun mounted on the metal slide was activated, the bullets would come in like a storm.
"You're sure it's too dangerous to do this, Leo."
The Huntress on the other side of the machine gun frowned, and Felicity next to her nodded vigorously.
This is not an aluminum alloy arrow that can be caught empty-handed.
Even if you are unfortunately shot, you are only injured.
This fully automatic machine gun, once fired, can easily beat a vulnerable human body into a sieve
"Don't worry, Helena, you can see the power of the symbiote armor too, we have already tried bows and arrows, one-handed crossbows, and fruit knives the other day, now it's time for a new twist."
Leo had a relaxed expression on his face, and he had returned to Star City these days.
In addition to sending a new message to Chloe, it was to test the effectiveness of the symbiote.
Roughly as Leo had guessed, this surprise gift increased his physical fitness in all aspects, from speed to endurance, and perception.
Slightly unexpectedly, the symbiote can liquefy and deform with the mind.
Let the limbs extend into various cold weapons, and even roam into electronic signals and networks, of course, this skill is very immature for the time being.
In addition, there is a strong camouflage ability, and through consciousness to change one's appearance and body shape, in addition to changing gender, so the women's clothing boss doesn't have to think about it.
And what satisfies Leo the most is the super self-healing ability brought by the symbiote.
Heals all kinds of serious wounds easily, even if the limb is broken, and can be quickly regenerated
The rate of recovery depends on the host's individual constitution.
It is said that even viruses and diseases, as well as mind control and nuclear radiation, can be immune to some extent, but this has not been tested in practice, and is only a guess based on Leo's mental memory.
Of course, the symbiote's weakness is also obvious, and both ultrasound and high temperatures can harm it.
On this point, Leo is thinking about how to make up for it.
"Okay, then be careful."
With a helpless look on her face, Helena pulled Felicity to sit in front of the computer and control the machine gun on the slide.
Dada
Leo activated the symbiote armor with his mind before he could shoot.
The reason why it is called "armor" is because the symbiote gradually changes its initial form according to the host's mind after a long period of continuous use.
Those viscous and rich black liquids condensed tightly, like deep and cold metal, with a faint luster.
The arms, knees, including the chest and abdomen, are like patchwork protectors.
The black lines outline the muscles, and the eyes are like "V" goggles, reflecting a crimson glow.
The whole look looks like he is wearing a sturdy armor of red and black.
I have to say, it's really cool from the point of view.
When Helena and Felicity saw it for the first time, they couldn't help but see little stars popping up in their eyes.
"Then I'm going to go"
The huntress reminded.
The machine gun spewed out a dazzling flame, and the high-speed spinning bullets rushed out of the chamber like a dull thunder
At the same time, Leo's right hand was raised, and the black liquid suddenly opened.
In an instant, it turned into an irregular shield, blocking the roaring metal storm
The metal bullets that were fired at high speed hit the black shield of viscous liquid condensed as if they were stuck in a cloud of glue.
Soon they fell into a deep trap, but they were never able to penetrate this layer of defense.
"Contraction rebound"
Leo let out a soft snort, and the black shield changed, flicking the blocked bullet to the side.
"Tentacles Spread"
His mind shifted again, and a viscous and thick black liquid shot out like countless tiny tentacles.
It opens, elongates, rolls
In less than a breath, the rapidly elongated black liquid wrenched the machine gun at full fire into scrap metal
"The results are amazing."
At the end of the twenty-minute test, Leo removed the symbiote armor and said with satisfaction.
He also had a general understanding of the destructive power of symbiotes.
"A message from Gotham."
Just as Leo was thinking about how to study the symbiote and develop more functions and potential, Helena spoke up.
"Note: It's a big Gotham dog."
