18. The return of the bats
Rachel's appearance on the Narrow Isle was just an accident.
Although both Bruce and Cyber had advised her not to go to Narrow Island these days, due to the assistant prosecutor's inner stubbornness for a certain will, she still came to the police station on Narrow Island yesterday to try to dig up more information about the dark forces behind Klein.
It's a good thing to be faithful, it's a code that everyone who has a job should follow, but right now, this beautiful code is dragging Rachel into hell.
At the beginning of the war between the mercenaries and the shadow warriors, Rachel was staying at the police station to deal with the mentally ill and lunatics who were being imprisoned, and the moment the power suddenly went out of the entire neighborhood, she instinctively wanted to leave the Narrow Island immediately, although Rachel did not have the super keen senses of Robin and Bruce, but she also realized that something was wrong, if it wasn't for the fat sheriff telling her not to worry, she estimated that she would have fled the Narrow Island long ago.
"Stupid guys!
Rachel ran forward quickly with her two children, feeling a hundred thousand regrets in her heart, that confident guy was killed in the first wave of attacks by the Shadow Warriors, and to make matters worse, his death had a cascading disaster, and the police in the entire pre-bureau were almost on the verge of collapse, hiding in the cabinet, she almost watched the black-clad warriors unleash all the psychopaths and lunatics in the precinct, and those guys had already joined them.
"Bang"
Just when Rachel was less than 10 meters away from the edge of the dock, a black shadow slammed into her and her two children's eyes, startling the three of them.
The Shadow Warrior in a black combat uniform noticed Rachel, his black cloth hood only revealed a pair of eyes, and those eyes shone with a cold light, he raised the pistol in his hand, but at the moment of aiming, Rachel's left hand poked out from behind him, and the muzzle of the small lady's pistol bloomed with a scorching light.
"Bang"
The black-clad warrior's body shook for a moment, and there was an unbelievable glint in his eyes, but then he lost all strength and stumbled into the icy waters beyond the docks.
But the gunshot also attracted the attention of the others, and two more guys with weapons pointed their guns at Rachel and the two children, and the assistant prosecutor's slightly dirty face showed a look of desperation.
But just as the gunshot rang out, a black shadow fell from the sky, and the little boy who was protected behind Rachel screamed,
"Batman!"
Rachel jerked his head up and saw the outstretched arms slowly falling from the roof of the building under the wings that had swelled into the shape of a dragon's wing, and when he reached the top of the thugs' heads, he gathered his wings and carried them to the ground, his hands crossed, and six L-shaped blades poked out from the gauntlets, and the dark blades lit up with light left and right. The two black-clad warriors, who wanted to shoot, folded their arms and fell to the ground screaming.
"Bang Bang"
Kicking the two guys in the neck mercilessly, knocking them unconscious, he glanced back at Rachel and tossed her a bunch of weird car keys with a black bat insignia on them that looked like a craft.
"The car is in the alley next to it, let's go! There are 15 minutes left, and the suspension bridge will be put away!"
After saying that, he crossed his hands, and there was something similar to a fist stab on his fist, like a tiger entering the forest, and turned to pounce on the shadow warriors who were entangled with the mercenaries, Rachel opened her mouth to ask something, but finally gritted her teeth, the determined girl escorted the two children and turned around and ran to the street next to her, she finally glanced back at Batman, who had already defeated those shadow warriors, and had a faint guess in her heart.
"You must survive!"
"Buzz"
The loud sound of the Batmobile starting made Bruce's heart feel a little calmer, Rachel's status in his heart was definitely not ordinary, it was a mixture of love and family affection, she left this battlefield safely, and it could also make Bruce's hanging heart completely let go.
"Where's Battier?"
Batman threw the last soldier who tried to draw his long knife to the ground with a punch, and turned to grab the squad commander Sean, who had been shot, asked loudly, and the latter pointed him in the direction with difficulty,
"Over at the station, but there's just been a violent explosion over there, and I'm afraid the leader has..."
"It's terrible!"
Bruce held Sean against the wall, he took the intercom from Sean's hand, adjusted the frequency, and then said loudly,
"The command code name is Black Bat, and now I have taken over the command, and each detachment will report the situation!"
"The western part of the Narrow Island is still holding out! The other side is attacking fiercely, and they are starting to drive those crazy ordinary people to attack us!"
"The eastern defense of the Narrow Island has been breached, but we are still holding on, damn it! The fog has turned the civilians here into madness, and we are at a disadvantage!"
"Grand Central Station has been lost, someone has entered the station! Also, the fog is very dense here!
"The drawbridge defense line is still intact! There are crazy civilians trying to cross the drawbridge, and they have been routed!"
Batman breathed a sigh of relief, as long as nothing happened on the other side of the drawbridge, it didn't matter if the people of the entire narrow island went crazy, he thought for a few seconds, and then gave a new order,
"Everyone, take your gear and your wounded companions, and move to the drawbridge defense, which will be closed in 15 minutes, and I need you to stop everyone trying to cross the drawbridge! Don't let these fear-inhaled civilians enter the city! Local Sheriff Jim Gordon will take full command of the defense of the drawbridge line!"
"But sir, what about those black-clad warriors?"
Bruce glanced up at the Narrow Island Station, where the Skyrail train had rekindled the light, and he said firmly in a hoarse voice,
"Stop them, trap them on the narrow island!
With that, Bruce took out a syringe-like thing from his belt's purse and stabbed it into Commander Sean's arm, and after a few moments, the commander regained consciousness.
"Commander, I need you to go to the Narrow Island Suspension Bridge and assist Sheriff Gordon in guarding there!"
Bruce grabbed him by the shoulder, the eyes under the mask staring at him, "Don't let your guard down until I come back, or the news of the victory comes!"
The pain in Sean's body was slightly suppressed by the effect of this stimulant, he nodded, a trace of gloom flashed in his bloodshot eyes, and then said quickly,
"On the second floor of the cordon next to the station's defense, where we've placed some high-powered assault weapons, you'll need them. ”
"Protect yourself!"
Batman stood up, his left hand swiped on the belt behind him, the claw gun fell into his hand, he pulled the trigger towards the roof of the building in front of him, and then his body seemed to really fly, and he flew towards the roof in front of him, with the help of the claw gun and dragon wing cloak, his phantom-like figure sped forward in the darkness, and soon approached the narrow island station.
The streets and alleys on the ground are already full of ordinary people who have lost their minds who have been shocked by the fear gas, they are like zombies in zombie movies who only know how to chase fresh flesh and blood, scuffling with each other, and the police and mercenaries who enter the narrow island are issued with gas masks, but in this case, don't expect ordinary police to have any powerful counterattack capabilities.
Even the heavily armed police officers in heavy body armor were taken from their weapons, punched, kicked, and some of the more unfortunate ones were killed outright under the onslaught of out-of-control civilians.
When ordinary people are hypnotized by fear gas, all they see is distorted everything, and all the objects that stand around them will be transformed into terrible things in the same stimulated senses, for some people, fear will break everything, but for others, fear will give birth to new power.
Unfortunately, not everyone has the will to wield this power, and the irascible people wield all kinds of weapons in their hands, roaring all kinds of voices in the dark streets without electricity, they form a chaotic line, rampaging through the streets, guided or driven by the black warriors in masks, and finally converge into a large, black turbidity current in the alleys.
And then there are the black-clad warriors on panicked horses, which were originally the good guys of the mounted police who were mobilized by Gordon to suppress the riots, but by this time their owners have been killed or defeated, and the new evil masters, like medieval knights, manipulate the frenzied horses that are also stimulated by fear and poisonous gas, and trample through the crowd, making the terrifying chaos even more unscrupulous.
As Batman skimmed across the dark skies of the Narrow Isle, he looked down below, and Cyber's question came back to his mind.
By his own strength, will he really be able to save these civilians suffering in this living hell?
"Chief, the power of the train has been activated! We are ready to go!"
The black-clad warrior emerged from the darkness, stood behind Ducat, and replied respectfully, "Are you going to put the instrument on the train now?"
Wearing the small, black gas mask that sits around his nose and mouth, Ducat waved his sword and exclaimed, "Of course, boys, isn't that what we're here for!"
"Lift it up, and in 20 minutes, the fallen city will be completely drowned in the destruction that is long overdue, and now we are only one step away from igniting the flame of civilization... Children, we are about to fulfill our vows!"
Ducat, with open arms, stepped up the staircase, as if to embrace some kind of darkness or glory, and behind him, the finest warriors, carefully selected, carried up the ceased silver-white apparatus up the staircase, and they were qualified to accompany the great Lars El Gur, the leader who had become a spiritual symbol in their history, to watch a great destruction and the beginning of a new life.
They will do it with their own hands, and it is simply an honor that there is no more.
But at the moment when the elevator rose, a black shadow fell from the sky with the whirring sound of breaking wind, and rushed into the staircase that had originally supplied the goods to rise.
When Ducat turned around, he saw the man in black armor, with a bat mask on his head and a black cloak on his back, a disguise that was almost useless in his eyes, and he could tell who he was just by the angry eyes.
Ducater was stunned for a moment, then narrowed his eyes and glanced up and down at Batman standing in front of him,
"My disciple, you seem to have made my description of disguise too literary and dramatic... But you ended up choosing the bat, and I saw in your eyes what I wanted to see, and you had a higher quest than revenge... It's good, it's going to be the most important step for you to get into the symbol... The premise is, you don't die on the road. ”
His body took a step back, and the four heavily armed black-clothed warriors behind him strode a thousand times, blocking between Ducat and Bruce,
"Bats used to be your fear, and now it seems like you want to bring that fear to your adversary... That's good, but let me see if your will can fulfill that crazy idea in your heart, and let me see which of the two of us will win with the Gotham bet!"
The old gentleman turned around, he looked at the city that was still lit up in the darkness, a flash of relief flashed in the depths of his eyes, followed by a firm will to destroy, his finger waved back, and an indifferent voice sounded in the darkness.
"Kill him!"
