Chapter 44: The Murder List
At night in Starling, the stars hang high in the sky, and the white moonlight scatters on the ground like a silver veil. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info Cheeked Jack, with his back to the container, a burning cigar in his mouth, his eyes looking at the sky,
It's been a long time since I've seen the night sky of Starling City so well, I didn't think it before, but now I calm down and take a closer look, the night sky of Starling City is still as beautiful as I remember, much better than the city of Gotham that is always shrouded in clouds.
Remembering the days he had spent on his mission in Gotham, the smoke from the burning cigar gradually blurred Jack's face,
There is a Batman who doesn't know when he ran out of the city in the sky that has always been shrouded in clouds, if he wasn't still wearing the coat of the military, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to come back, but I didn't expect that there were vigilantes in Starling City, which is really ironic.
Before the cigar burned out, Jack threw it on the ground and stomped on it a few times, as if it was not the cigar under his feet but the knight in the warehouse.
"Starling City does not allow the existence of masked vigilantes who are above the law, this is a defiance of the law, since this knight, how many imitators have appeared in Starling City? If it weren't for the fact that most of these people don't have that ability, I'm afraid our city would have been turned upside down by now! ”
This is Jack's own reasoning in the meeting, which is upright and does not tolerate the slightest falsehood.
After Gotham saw the harm caused by Batman, Jack has great malice towards this kind of vigilante, when the will of the individual is above the law, who can guarantee that his original intention remains the same?
The seductive words of Amanda, who had always advocated finding out the knight's identity and blackmailing him into serving the military, were still lingering in his ears, but fortunately, the commander did not take Amanda's advice and chose himself, and stuffed a few "strange" helpers on his side.
Is that kind of non-human monster really something that the military can control?
Thinking of the scene where the five helpers showed their strength, Jack's heart couldn't help but feel a little worried, as well as the woman who was full of charm all over her body.
"Boom !!"
Thinking so, there were suddenly two loud explosions from the warehouse behind him!
Explode?! Who won?
After quickly standing up and giving the order to all staff to be on guard via the radio, Jack remained quietly alone, hunched over his waist and staring at the overturned warehouse with his eyes fixed on it.
"Come back, Remino, it's not for you to meddle anymore."
Witnessing the death of one of the few companions in this world is undoubtedly very exciting for Reminor, if it weren't for Vanessa's cold voice that has become so cold that there is still a trace of clarity in his mind, because Reminor, who has not evolved and still has the instinct of a beast, would have rushed to fight against Jace.
"Huh? I thought you'd keep your companion fighting. Jace raised an eyebrow at Vanessa's stop, taking the opportunity to regain his stamina, which had rapidly declined since using ClockUp.
"How did you get this ability? Or is this ability something you have developed yourself? ”
Ignoring Jace's words, Vanessa, who had never stepped close to Jace since the beginning, finally took her own steps, and the bright fiery red slowly floated towards Jace like a thorny rose.
"Isn't it wrong that no one has taught you to inquire into other people's secrets?"
Seeing Vanessa walking towards him, his mouth responded casually, but the muscles of his body had already entered a state of alert,
For this woman who felt the most threatened, the vigilance in Jace's heart instantly rose to the apex.
"I apologize to you for my negligence," his right hand stroked the black hair that fell to his chest,
"Can you tell me now?"
"I'm sorry, no." Jace himself is confused as to why this mysterious set of armor can use ClockUp, and his ability to use it does not mean that he has to understand, especially since for so many years, Jace has not heard the slightest rumor saying something like "so-and-so lab stolen" or "so-and-so technology company stolen", even Bruce has no way to understand the strangeness of this set of armor.
"Then it can't be helped." Shaking her head as if regretfully, Vanessa turned sideways and raised her head,
"Schmidt, now you have just molted and evolved, and you are not yet proficient in the various abilities of the body, and you still can't fully control your body, so take Remino away from the battlefield, understand?"
Vanessa, who had a restrained smile on her face, was full of aura at this moment, although her every move was still charming, but the undoubted majesty between the words made Schmidt and Reminor, who wanted to say something, have to hold back the words back into their stomachs.
"Looks like you're confident,"
Jace, who thought Vanessa would choose three to one, was obviously a little surprised by this decision, and he was still able to be so confident after the death of two partners, and Jace could not allow Jace to relax a little.
"But I don't think you'll be able to fight in this beautiful dress." Shaking his right hand, his knees bent slightly, he jumped on the spot, and for this mysterious woman, Jace chose to strike first.
Vanessa's face did not show the slightest surprise at Jace's sudden attack, and the sapphire-like pupils reflected the closer and closer burgundy patterned figure.
The pattern that looks like a circuit board is so conspicuous on the black breastplate.
"Whew!"
A gust of wind suddenly blew in the originally empty warehouse, and along with the strong wind, there were also rose petals in the sky, some of which fell lightly to the ground, silently, and some of which fell lightly on Jace's body, but like a thousand catties!
These petals?!
The moment the petals were on the sidelines, Jace had already sensed that something was wrong, and it was too late to react, and the petals weighing a thousand pounds smashed into his body one by one, and in an instant, dozens of metal crashes had already sounded.
Does this woman still have superpowers?!
Getting up from the ground with difficulty, the situation in front of him did not allow Jace to hesitate any longer, and with a slap of the button on the left side of the belt with his left hand, he re-entered the world of ClockUp.
The moment the cold electronic prompt sounded, in the ClockUp state, the rose petals attached to Jace's body were instantly crushed into powder due to the huge pressure, and dissipated between heaven and earth, and Jace was able to free himself from the heavy burden.
Not again! The ability to deal with Bart and Millie in an instant before!
Reminor, who remembered these two words very well, shrank his pupils suddenly, and looked at Vanessa's eyes full of worry, for fear that Vanessa would follow in the footsteps of those two in the next second.
Fortunately, the situation that Remino was worried about did not appear, which made him breathe a sigh of relief, if Vanessa also died under this ability, then there was no need to fight and just run away.
It's just that Remino, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, never expected that Vanessa gave him a big surprise!
In just the blink of an eye, Vanessa's figure had disappeared in place!
This is?!
Moving at super high speeds?!
Seeing Vanessa, who was still able to move freely after being pulled into the ClockUp area by herself, Jace's heart was full of shock and doubts at the moment, and the next moment, Vanessa's words completely shattered the doubts in Jace's heart, leaving only shock.
"I'm really surprised that you can perfectly copy this ability of ClockUP, but I'm curious about how long your physical strength can support it, and over time, even if this set of armor on your body is hard enough, I'm afraid it will be crushed into powder."
Perfectly reproduced? How is this possible?!
"Perfect copy? What are you talking about? ”
"Are you still pretending to be stupid, Mr. Knight, the fact that I am now free is undoubtedly the strongest proof of this, right?" looked at Jace with a smile, his blue eyes full of mockery,
The same ability?
Under the yellow compound eyes, Jace's eyes narrowed slightly,
If the reason Jace had been tracking down the organization that had created the non-human monster was for the safety of Starling City, now he had one more reason - to find out the relationship between the armor on his body and Vanessa's organization.
Because she thinks that the person who made this set of armor is Jace, Vanessa will say such things, but her own family knows her own affairs, and the set of armor on her body is not made by himself, which Jace thinks that no one in this world knows except herself, and naturally, Vanessa can't know it, so it is understandable for her to think so.
One clue after another appeared in his mind, and the red and black dagger in his hand suddenly came out of his hand, this sudden action even Vanessa did not calculate, because the target of this dagger was not her, but Schmidt, who was standing motionless and twitching at the warehouse gate!
Damn it! No one has ever molted successfully since then, and I almost forgot that after the successful evolution of molting, the body must be soaked in a special nutrient solution as soon as possible to ensure that the newborn body absorbs enough nutrients to grow.
The moment she saw Schmidt's twitching, Vanessa's mind was filled with what Mr. Negishi had said to her after she had shed her skin.
"This time, you escaped, but next time you will never escape."
The cold voice sounded in Jace's ears, and Schmidt and Reminor, who were still standing at the door of the warehouse, were swept up by two rose storms, and disappeared directly from everyone's sight with Vanessa.
“ClockOver。”
Seeing Vanessa's three leaving, Jace also withdrew from the state of ClockUp, accompanied by this cold electronic prompt sound, took his own steps, and walked towards the door of the warehouse step by step, where the army elites who did not know the situation looked at him nervously.
This gesture?! Is this gesture the true face of a knight?!
Compared to the slightly bloated silver-white armor before, the light armor on Jace's body now is undoubtedly in line with the posture of a knight.
Aren't those five so-called reinforcements the opponents of the knights either?
Looking at the knight who was walking towards him and the others step by step, as the leader of tonight's operation, Jack Huhu's face was ugly,
On the top of his head, the ink-black horns are raised high like a unicorn fairy, and the light emitted by the yellow compound eyes on the face makes people feel panicked, and the burgundy pattern on the black breastplate like a circuit board has an indescribable sense of danger. Behind him, a flame still burning had not been extinguished.
In the knight's hand, he also held a red and black dagger, and the sound of the metal boots colliding with the concrete floor made Jack raise his right hand, and fifty black muzzles were aimed at the knight who seemed to come out of the flames.
Even if you are defeated, you must do what you should do!

"Whew............ It's finally done, this virus is really difficult to deal with, that Alice must not have any good intentions, if it weren't for the quick response, then all the data in the three computers should have been destroyed at this moment. ”
Felicity, who was a great success in the "three-front battle", collapsed directly on the seat, and the long-term and high-intensity "brain duel" made Felicity miserable, and the virus on the USB flash drive made Felicity think hard, but fortunately, the final result was still the favorite "good defeated evil".
"Now, then, let me see what's in there." Just in case, Felicity added her newly improved firewall to the three computers on the console while opening the data.
There is only one folder in the entire USB flash drive, click in, there is only one text file and a dozen photos in the folder, there is no hurry to see the text file, Felicity's eyes fell on these photos, with a click of the mouse, more than a dozen photos were easily enlarged on the screen, each occupying a position, for Felicity to watch.
"It's .................."
Felicity, who was originally in a relaxed mood, suddenly became heavy after seeing these photos.
More than a dozen photos, some of Jace Quinn, some of Oliver Quinn; There's about Moira Quinn, there's about Robert Quinn; There's about Thea Quinn, and there's about Felicity Smock!
In the upper right or lower left corner of each photo, there will be a black pistol with the muzzle of the black hole facing the person in the photo.
Is this, a murder list?
Pushing the glasses on the bridge of his nose, with a heavy heart, the cursor clicked on the only text file,
The text is not very long, only about eight or nine hundred words, all written in red font, and in less than three minutes, the text has been read, and Felicity's heart has sunk to the bottom.
If what is written in this text is true, then those photos are indeed a list of murders, and everyone in the Quinn family is "on the list"!
Including her, Felicity Smock, the would-be daughter-in-law of the Quinn family.
And, according to what is written in the text, the Quinn family is only part of this murder list.
