133, Borderless City, reloaded
Bruce, with his eyes fixed on the TV screen, gritted his teeth and tried to sit up from the bed after listening to Bane's declaration.
The anxiety and anger in his heart seemed to be some kind of driving force to act.
Trying to get the scarred, dying body back on its feet again.
Unfortunately, Bruce Wayne is just a mortal.
Under that Batman armor, he was still flesh and blood.
The injuries Bane inflicted on Bruce were so severe, in addition to his multiple fractures and soft tissue contusions, that were critical of the spine that was almost completely fractured in his back.
The reason why this proud son of Gotham is still alive now can only be attributed to his tenacious vitality.
For normal people, a break below the thoracic spine will cause a low paraplegia, while a break above the thoracic spine will cause a high paraplegia and even be life-threatening.
And Bruce Wayne didn't go through any medical care, but he was still alive, and I have to say that his willpower is really strong
"I sometimes wonder if there is a heart of steel hidden beneath the surface of your flesh and blood."
Leo turned off the TV and raised his hand to push Bruce back into bed.
Just one action of getting up just now made the other party pale and sweat like rain.
The whole person seemed to be about to collapse, his chest was like a blower, and he kept panting.
This shows how bad Bruce Wayne's current physical condition is.
"Do you see what he's going to do, Bane wants to completely destroy Gotham, he created a group of anarchist thugs, he lit a fire and is ready to burn my city to ashes"
There was a hint of pain in Bruce's voice, as if he remembered what he had said when he and Bane were fighting at Wayne Manor
"I'm going to crush you completely, whether it's Bruce Wayne or Batman"
That strong mercenary is not a reckless man with a brain full of muscles.
He's smart and calm.
Know how to approach your prey patiently and slowly reach out your claws.
A quick and precise blow kills
"I know a lot more than you do, Bruce."
Leo leaned back in his chair, his brow furrowed slightly.
"Five months earlier, Bane had kidnapped a nuclear physicist, Dr. Leonid Pavol, who was on the Pentagon archives and had died during a rescue effort in Uzbekistan, but it was clear that he was still alive and had fallen into Bane's hands."
Leo first took out his mobile phone and clicked on a copy of the archives of the Tianyan Society.
It contains a detailed account of the life and honors of Dr. Leonid Pavor.
"Why Bain Needs a Nuclear Physicist"
Bruce was a little puzzled, and he endured the sharp pain in his back and began to think non-stop.
"Of course, to have the destruction of Gotham, and to negotiate with the Pentagon."
Leo didn't sell it, and replied directly.
As the deputy director of the Tianyan Society, he has taken over this terrorist incident with full authority.
The Joker and the Arkham fan group that will appear later are not annoying in Leo's eyes.
As long as those guys stay honest in Gotham, continue to play the boring game of cops catching thieves with Batman, and want to make big news if nothing happens, he can turn a blind eye and act as if nothing happened.
After all, madmen and psychopaths are like leeks in the field in this world, and after killing this stubble, the next stubble will soon emerge.
Rather than doing this useless work yourself, leave it to Batman and the other superheroes.
But the Shadow Warrior Alliance is different, they carry out terrorist attacks at every turn, which makes the Tianyan Society bear a lot of pressure from the Pentagon.
"Bain has long had its eye on the Wayne Group's clean energy project, which, if I remember correctly, was the control system of a nuclear fusion reactor. With a professional like Dr. Pavor, Bane could easily turn it into a four-megaton nuclear bomb. ”
Leo uttered a terrible piece of news in an understated tone.
Bruce's eyes glared angrily, and the anxiety in his heart intensified.
He should have guessed that Bane had come prepared
The opponent's offensive was swift and fierce, and once the blow was launched, it was a thunderous momentum, leaving Bruce with no respite.
By the time he reacted, he had lost the opportunity to fight back
Now Bruce can only pray that the Gotham Police Department, as well as Gordon and Alfred, will be safe
"Aren't you going to do something?"
Seeing Leo's relaxed face, Bruce asked with difficulty.
Judging from his experience and experience of cooperating with the other party last time, the young man sitting on the chair in front of him, who was calm, must have a complete plan in mind.
"Aren't I doing it? Otherwise, why do you think I'd come all the way to this prison just to rescue Batman or Bruce Wayne, but our friendship doesn't end there. ”
Leo's tone was calm, but the words he uttered were hurtful.
Even if Bruce is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, he has a resolute temperament.
Hearing this answer, the corners of his mouth still couldn't help twitching.
"I didn't think so, but if you have to say that, you can be a little more tactful."
Bruce subconsciously moved his body, and the sudden sharp pain made him take a low breath.
In his future life, he will encounter all kinds of opponents and enemies.
But the pain Bane brought to Batman will never be erased.
This pain of a broken spine, the despair of lying in bed, the feeling of weakness that filled his heart, Bruce will never forget for the rest of his life
"Okay, let's get back to business."
Leo tapped his fingers rhythmically a few times, and opened his mouth to tell Bruce what the current situation was like in Gotham, which he was guarding.
"The Gotham Police Department has a total of more than 4,000 police officers, most of whom were trapped in a complex sewer system by Bane with explosives, and as for the mayor and police chief, they all died in the explosion of the football game, which means that Gotham is now a borderless city"
It's been a week since Bruce arrived at this prison.
Gotham has long been controlled by Bane and has been reduced to a playground of indulgence for thugs and gangsters.
The policemen and the wealthy, as well as the civilian women and children who lack the power to resist, are now at the bottom of the city.
"At the same time Bane blew up all the bridges from Gotham to the outside world, and the city became an island, and the National Guard could only stand outside, unable to force troops in, because the guy had a nuclear bomb in his hand and claimed that he would press the detonation button as long as the government took any strong measures"
Leo clicked on an audio conversation of Bane's negotiations with the Pentagon and played it to Bruce, who was lying on the bed.
The mercenary who led the Shadow Warrior Alliance used 12 million citizens of Gotham as hostages, blackmailed the government into not intervening, and transported a certain amount of supplies into the city every month.
And in the inner part of the city, without the control and deterrence of the police and the city hall, anarchism has spawned a large number of fanatical believers who have wreaked havoc throughout Gotham
Gangs form courts and juries to maintain the illegal order they desire, and they divide neighborhoods into chunks of territory and have fun without any scruples.
Bane and his mercenaries turned a blind eye to this and just let it go.
All this is like an absurd and real social experiment used to test the inferiority and ugliness of human beings
Once the shackles of law and morality are gone, will people build a paradise or go to hell together?
I believe that the answer to this question will soon be available in Gotham.
"I must return to Gotham immediately"
After listening to the audio, Bruce said categorically.
He couldn't sit back and watch Bane destroy his city and drag everyone into the abyss
"Until then, you'll have to recover from your injuries."
Leo dissuades a distraught Bruce, a disabled person with a paralyzed lower body can't defeat Bane.
The corners of his mouth provoked a hint of a smile, and he said softly: "Bruce, you may not be able to stand up in this life, but fortunately, you met me." ”
"And I met a martial artist from China who taught me how to heal my wounds in the fastest and most efficient way."
