Chapter 194: Assistance
Gotham. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
As night falls, darkness gradually envelops the city. Gotham is like a wild animal, and the daytime often gives people some false illusions, and only the real Gotham will wake up at night.
A black motorcycle flew through the streets like lightning, stopping the car on the corner of the street. The young man in the black T-shirt took off his safety helmet and hung it on the handle, his face was quite handsome, and his figure was sturdy and straight.
Locking the locomotive, he went straight to the corner bar. As soon as I pushed the door, it was as if a wave of dark red heat rushed to my face, and the noisy noise made people suspect that they had arrived in another world. The air was filled with the smell of smoke and alcohol, the dance floor was lit up with lights, and several scantily clad dancers were dancing.
Gotham-born citizens mostly know that this is no ordinary bar. The bar is owned by Oswald Chesterfield Copote, also known as the "Penguin Man". On weekdays, his positive image is that of an entrepreneur and a philanthropist, but of course it is all a disguise, and really powerful crime bosses like to cover themselves up under such a disguise. His true face is the leader of the biggest criminal force in Gotham City, and he is Batman's old enemy, but even Batman has not caught the handle that can send him to prison.
And of course, since it is such a number one person, all the bars, most of the people who come here are not simple people.
The young man in the black T-shirt ignored the crowd and went straight to the inconspicuous seat in the inner corner.
Sitting there were Eric and Raven, who were being wanted everywhere, and Eric waved his hand in a friendly way when he arrived.
"Dick Grayson, Nightwing has been in the limelight with Bloomhaven lately." As the young man sat down, Eric smiled, "I'm sorry to trouble you from Brughhaven, but I do need your help right now. ”
Yes, the young man was Dick Grayson, but theoretically he hadn't met Eric without a uniform.
"You two headshots have been going all over the place lately, and I think I can tell you're in a lot of trouble. But before that......" Dick asked solemnly, "you contacted Dick Grayson instead of Nightwing, how did you know my identity?" ”
Eric shrugged, "X sight? You know that my armor has a variety of superpowers, such as perspective. So I've seen your face a long time ago, but I haven't said it. ”
Well, he lied, the Alpha Armor of the Amozo Alpha, which didn't use the Awakening Accessory, didn't actually have a perspective feature. But he can't say, "I know who you are because I've read your comics," right?
But Dick seemed to accept this fact, sighed, and asked, "Okay, so what do you need me for?" And what exactly did you get into trouble that caused you to be wanted by the whole country? ”
"To put it simply, a cross-latitude demon Lord of the Three Houses is preparing to invade our Earth, and Raven is the only one who can stop it." "Unfortunately, Aegis doesn't believe it. So we ...... Belch...... There was a little disagreement. ”
"Small disagreements." Dick raised an eyebrow.
"It could be a little more serious than that." "All in all, now we're going to go it alone. Raven said that a magic crystal was needed to stop the three houses, and that it had been unearthed near Gotham not long ago, and was currently being kept in the S.H.I.E.L.D. branch in Gotham, and they still don't know the meaning of this crystal. And where we need your help, it's to get that thing out. ”
Dick stared at him for a moment, then said, "I'll make sure before I answer, you know how crazy this sounds right?" ”
"One of the two men in front of you has invulnerable armor that can reach the heavens and the earth, and the other can wield chaos magic. The world you live in is inherently crazy, what's not to believe? ”
Dick thought for a moment, "Okay, that makes sense. But it's Gotham, why don't you go to Batman? ”
"If I find him, will he help me?"
“...... Probably not. Dick admitted.
"You're my friend, Dick." Eric said earnestly, "One of the few friends. So please. ”
"Okay." Dick compromised, "I'll contact the Oracle and let her see if we can get the details of the Aegis branch here in Gotham, and then we'll make a plan to break in." But before that......"
He glanced at Eric and Raven.
"You've got to get dressed." He said, "As two people wanted by the whole territory, you are dressed too arrogantly. ”
Half an hour later, a clothing store.
At Dick's behest, Eric changed into a casual sportswear, a dark blue jacket with a hood, and white sneakers, completely changing his image from before. Dick suggested that he change his hairstyle, but Eric gave up because he thought it was too time-consuming.
Anyway, the makeover is just to prevent being discovered by surveillance cameras, and Raven's mental power is usually not recognized.
When Raven came out of the fitting room, even Eric was startled and almost didn't recognize him. She changed into a white short-sleeved T-shirt, wore a short black skirt, and wore black high boots on her slender and white flawless calves, looking like a pure and beautiful girl.
In my memory, it seems that since the first time I met Raven, she was dressed in black from head to toe all day long, and her head was always buried in a black hood when she walked on the street, revealing an eerie atmosphere. That image was almost ingrained in Eric's mind, and it was hard to match it with Raven in front of him.
But it's really pretty.
But Raven himself visibly felt uncomfortable, muttering, "Why do you have to wear this kind of thing......"
"It's working pretty well." Dick laughs, "It's all about a makeover, a big difference in impressions." ”
Eric walked up to Raven and smiled, "It's very pretty, you really should dress up like this more often." ”
"Yes...... Is it? Raven tilted his head unnaturally, looked at himself in the mirror, and whispered, "I still like black ......"
Eric buttoned her up with a cute peaked cap, and she subconsciously shrank her head, but finally put it on reluctantly.
Dick's phone rang, he pulled out the screen and glanced at it, saying, "Very good, our first step is complete...... The oracle has also found the general structure of the Aegis branch. You should be tired of going through so much today, I still have a few places to stay in Gotham, we can go and rest for the night, discuss the plan, and prepare for action tomorrow. ”
Eric nodded, "That's it, thanks, Dick." ”
