As his name suggests, the stars in the dark night are the city's prosperity, and behind the scenes of this prosperity is the background of the darkness of sin. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
As Old Bard of the Sandknife Gang said, there are no night watchmen in the city, only an order that hides behind the scenes, entrenched, like a dense twig. That order is complex and solid, but it is growing and changing. Vendettas, prostitution, robbery, gambling, drug addiction, all the darkness of the city is like fertile dirt, providing nourishment for the tree, making this set of "Star City Rules" more and more like the code of hell.
Naturally, the diverse, crazy, sane, and sophisticated criminals are the devils in this hell.
However, even among these devils, the clown is the most typical and the most famous.
No one knows his name, and no one knows where he came from.
From the moment he appeared in the city, he became the nightmare of the city.
The man with clown makeup brought fear, sin, and madness to this thriving city.
He's not mighty, yes, he's not the best in terms of strength, but his wit and cunning - and of course his mastery of space spells - turn everyone around. Both good and bad people will have chills down their backs when they see this clown. They either hated or admired the clown, but there was fear in these attitudes.
No one will forget the grand circus show five years ago, when the clown appeared for the first time, killing 20 nobles in full view of everyone, driving five sixth-level professionals crazy, leaving all four mages of the Arcane Council dead on their way to the scene, and finally escaped unharmed.
It was the Joker's battle for fame and the beginning of the nightmare for the people of Star City, after which the Joker committed fifteen serious incidents before being arrested after Duke Starry used the only eight-ring spell scroll [Wide Area Soul Tracking].
However, no one knows whether he was arrested in desperation or on purpose.
――――
The Joker escaped, and although he only escaped from his cell and not even from the dungeon, the inmates and experimental mages in the other cells were already in fear.
"Hi friends, your dear clown is back. ”
With an exaggerated and hideous smile on the corners of his mouth, the clown's narrowed eyes flashed with a cruel light.
He snapped his fingers with his left hand, and in the glow of magic, a bottle of potion appeared in his hand, holding the bottleneck, and the clown habitually stroked his ugly green curls.
"Friends in the room, well, friends in charge of the experiments. The clown's voice was slow, hoarse, and low, with a rare accent that gave it a sense of gradual mania, "I'll give you three seconds, well, three seconds for mercy, I think it's better for you to hurry up, if you accidentally die, the scene will be a little unsightly." He nervously trembled the potion in his hand, and a terrifying smile appeared on his tilted head.
Before the clown could finish his words, a mage had already opened the cell in a panic and ran to the exit of the dungeon in a panic. The clown didn't stop it, he just said to himself:
"As for the friends who love me, oh, I know you're going to party with me, don't you? I know you, you know the beauty of killing, you know the fun of rioting, oh, don't worry, I'll save you. ”
Some of the prisoners in the cells were already howling with excitement.
"Hahahaha, don't worry, don't worry, let me count the numbers, three ......"
"One! haha!" The clown threw the bottle to the ground, and after the bottle shattered, the orange mist instantly filled the entire basement with the sound of explosion.
"Is it fun, is it fun? hahahahaha!" the clown shouted excitedly and cruelly, dancing wildly.
Two seconds later, the entire basement was silent, and the fleeing mage was of course halfway down, and even the criminal, who was screaming for peace, was not breathing. The entire basement - except for the clown, is dead.
The clown frowned, restrained his smile, and showed a sad expression.
"Pathetic, friends, I thought so...... But it's a bit too late......"
As the words fell, the clown's face returned to that hideous smile.
He shook the telephonic scroll in his hand and unhurriedly injected the magic into it, smiling "hee-hee-hee-hee" as he walked slowly
"Do you think you caught me?"
......
"Oh, I'm a little wrong, well, there's nothing wrong with me, I'm not crazy, yes, I'm not crazy at all, it's just, ha, ah, I can't seem to make it up, but it's okay, I don't have to. ”
The Joker ended the silly conversation in his hoarse voice.
With a flick of his right hand, the useless scroll of sound transmission fell on the gate of the manor, in a pool of blood from the guards.
The clown didn't change his costume, he crossed the street in front of the lord's manor and blended into the alleys of the business district.
Outside these alleys are bustling business districts, bustling with tourists and hawkers who have kept Star City thriving, but these dark alleys are full of garbage, homeless people, crooks and hooligans.
The clown held his head high and hummed a strange tune, and that confident look didn't seem to worry at all about the impending hunt.
"Hey!" a rough voice suddenly came from the lower left of the clown, a homeless man sitting against a wall sleeping, his outstretched foot stepped on by the clown.
In the realm of Star City, all the homeless people are also outlaws who do everything, they have impulsive personalities, and they talk about righteousness, so this homeless man yelled fearlessly, "Are you looking at the hell, looking for death?"
"Oh, did I step on you, haha, sorry, my, I was wrong, I apologize. Retracting the foot he had stepped on, the clown's smile loomed in the darkness, and his hoarse voice seemed to carry a natural mockery, and the homeless man was immediately on fire.
"What the hell are you apologizing, take the money, lose the money, or don't want to leave. ”
The clown narrowed his eyes and suddenly chuckled twice, "Hee-hee!"
"What are you laughing at? Dressed like a clown, what are you ****? Freak!"
"No, I'm not a freak, it's a hobby, an artistic pursuit. Haha, that's you, you want money, right!"
"Of course, if you don't lose money, you don't want to go through this today, it's a big deal that you kill me, and I'm a rotten life anyway. ”
"It's not easy to have ambition and want money. Rubbing his hands, the clown's voice was full of temptation, "Let's go grab it, how about it?"
"What did you say?"
"I said, friend, how about we go and rob it?" said the clown in a calm and convincing voice, "I have a way to let everyone be safe and sound after the robbery, shall I do it?"
"What you said is true?"
"Of course, I think I have a good brain, but more importantly, you and I are both rotten, instead of blackmailing each other, we might as well do a big deal. ”
"Robbing a bank?"
"No, no, no, the bank? We're going to rob the city vault. Sinisterly laughing, the clown snapped his fingers again and said, "Of course, we should find a few more." ”
