Arkham Island was put under complete martial law, and the guards quickly found it, and Harvey Dent was quickly recaptured and put back in his cage.

Tomorrow morning, there will be no surprises in this matter, and it will surely make the front page headlines of major newspapers. The fact that the entire Arkham Asylum had been blown to rubble was enough to make a national sensation in the news of the century.

On the bright side, the bandage man's - that is, the silence - has finally come to an end. Dr. Thomas Elliott's fate is uncertain, and while the chances of surviving the water after being shot several times are theoretically slim, Batman's instincts tell him that his relationship with Silence doesn't end so easily.

But that's just the good thing. In terms of results, the battle was won, but no one can call this result a "victory", because the price paid is too heavy.

After the fact, a large-scale search was carried out on the ruins of the blasting of Arkham. Wayne Enterprises immediately funded a large number of high-tech products to help search for signs of life and find any survivors from the rubble.

And they did get something. The lunatics and thugs held in Arkham also seem to be long-lived people, each of whom has brushed shoulders with death countless times, but the Grim Reaper has never taken him in.

However, the most important person was not found.

One by one, the figures of Batman's old rivals emerge from the ruins. Killer crocodiles, ventriloquists, poison ivy and other super criminals were all dug out from under the bricks one by one, and even the clown who was still laughing maniacally with half of his body crushed under the boulder.

But there was no figure of the most important man, Alfred.

Arkham Asylum, half an hour ago.

After the explosion, Alfred was crushed under a boulder, his words incoherent and slurred.

In a trance, he felt that he had heard the stern voice of the former chief.

"Sergeant! Report the situation! ”

"Lieutenant" Alfred said with great difficulty, "the ground collapsed and I fell from above"

"Be accurate, sergeant." There was a flickering moment in front of him, and he felt that the lieutenant in the ridiculous hat and crisp military uniform was dangling beside him, "Your current situation is that you are injured and trapped"

"I think I'm hallucinating"

"Sort of." The lieutenant crouched down to him and said, "Do you remember the survival triangle?" Sergeant? ”

"Yes," he gritted his teeth, "the bottom is the will to survive, the second layer is the knowledge of survival, and the third layer is training." ”

"Louder! Pennyworth! ”

Alfred closed his eyes slightly.

"I'm going to die." He said.

Suddenly, the thousand pounds of pressure that pressed on him disappeared abruptly.

He opened his eyes in surprise, wondering if it was another hallucination of his own, but his intuition told him that this time it was real.

Bane, who was covered in muscles that seemed to explode, was standing barefoot on the boulder in front of him at the moment, holding the thousand-pound boulder that had just weighed on him with both hands.

"Possibly," Bain said, "but not here." ”

A few minutes later, Alfred honestly followed Bane, walking among the rubble and the patients lying on the ground in hospital gowns.

"Why save me?" Alfred asked.

Bane said, "Because you can still walk." From the moment you came to Arkham, I knew you were a veteran. At such a time, in this kind of place, people like you would be useful, understand? ”

"So you're hoping for someone to take care of your back in case someone calls." Alfred Road.

"That's right."

"But am I trustworthy? I'm hallucinating, probably I'm a psychopath. ”

"I can handle it." Bane continued to walk forward, "If there's something trying to kill you, just shout." ”

When the two came to a fork in the road that looked indistinguishable, Bane was about to head towards the one on the left, but was stopped by Alfredra.

"Wait, go this way!" He said.

A fierce glint flashed in Bane's eyes: "If you dare to touch me again, I will break you in half like an olive branch." I'll lead the way, and you follow. ”

"Okay, listen to you." Alfred spread his hands and pointed to a yellow painted number that had collapsed in the corner, "But did you see this?" This is the sewer maintenance number, and the city's sewer system can be mapped as a maintenance network. With this number, I think I can determine where exactly we are. ”

"I'm more useful than you think, good man." Alfred said, "I can take us out." ”

Bane glared at him for a moment, then said coldly, "I'll lead the way." ”

Still, he went in the direction Alfred had pointed out.

Alfred smiled: "Of course, of course, listen to you." ”

After a few moments, a group of men in orange prison uniforms emerged from the passage directly opposite.

They all looked unkind, and approached the two men with bad intentions.

"Come on, come on." Bane rubbed his hands, "You think I'm going to be scared of you?" ”

"Wait," said Alfred, stopping in front of him, "we're in the same situation now, and we have no reason to be in each other."

He was only halfway through his words when a person on the other side had already shouted and rushed forward.

Alfred was taken aback, and before he could react, he saw a punch come at him.

But he didn't cope, Bane did. Bane lifted his large palm and lifted the madman up and slammed it against the wall on the side of the narrow passage, and the guy vomited blood and fainted.

"These are crazy people." Bane said coldly, "There's no reason to talk to a madman. ”

Alfred smiled wryly, it was really unconvincing for a madman to come out of the mouth.

But there is no other way but to fight.

It's just a few crazy people, and it's not enough for Bane. And although Alfred has no chance of winning in the face of so many madmen alone, he is also born in the army, and he is not without the strength to fight, and it is no problem to protect himself in the face of less than three enemies at a time.

In a few moments, the madmen lay on the ground.

Bane looked at him for a moment in surprise: "Green Beret Special Forces, huh?" ”

"British Special Air Service Regiment." Alfred shrugged, "It's like riding a bicycle, you can't forget to walk this way when you learn it, it's not far away." ”

This time, Bane finally didn't bother with the question of who would lead the way, and walked behind him.

At the end of the road was a wall, also stamped with yellow paint numbers, but it didn't have a single scratch, but it contrasted sharply with all the other dilapidated ruins of buildings around it.

"There's nothing here?" Bane wondered.

But I saw Alfred leaning on the wall, covering his mouth and nose, and whispering as if talking to himself: "Ten-twenty-β, disable confirmation." ”

"What?"

Bane realized that something was wrong, and as soon as he took a step, a large cloud of pale green gas erupted from several dark holes in the wall. Bane was caught off guard and inhaled the poison gas, and immediately fell into a slumber and fell asleep.

A secret door opens in the wall, revealing a dark room that glows with a pale blue glow, and a large bat mark painted on the computer in the center.

"Connect the Batcave! This is penny one," Alfred commanded in a voice, "NB-13 safe house has arrived, and underground security communications are online. (To be continued.) )
