Chapter 440: Prologue to the Cold Wind (Part II)

"Someone sold our place to the group of agents."

Bruce spoke, and he helped Clark up to the bed, then explained, "Just now, Lex and I were hunted down, I'm going to save him first, and then I'll come to you." ”

Before Clark could ask, Bruce continued, "He's weaker than you, and he's been knocked unconscious by agents when I get there." ”

"Are these agents crazy?!"

Clark asked puzzled, and Bruce still said in a deep voice: "At first, they probably thought that we killed Benjamin, so it's not surprising that they will hunt us down." ”

"But now, obviously, someone has bewitched them, a madman who is best at fanning people's hearts, and they have turned the agents into our enemies completely, and now things are getting a little out of control."

"That is, they are really crazy." Clark concluded.

"I'm ......," Clark was about to say that he would be able to get the group out of here, and Bruce, as if he had anticipated what he was going to say, said in a low tone:

"Didn't you find out? There's some kind of force that's influencing this manor, and everything here is starting to get a little out of place, and I'm going to find out about it or else the anomaly could affect the entire Met. ”

"I've wanted to say it a long time ago." Clark hesitated, sighed, and said, "I feel a little uncomfortable, and I was the same when I first came here." ”

"Under what circumstances do you feel this way?" Bruce asked, frowning.

"I don't know, I've never been sick before, I've always been healthy, and I haven't felt this way." Clark said puzzled.

"That proves even more that there might be a problem underneath the manor." Bruce touched his chin and speculated, "Lex told me earlier that his father knew that there might be evidence of secret human experiments conducted by previous mayors underneath the manor. ”

"This human experiment may be related to radiation, which means that there may be a huge source of radiation underground."

Clark immediately sat up from the bed and said, "We've got to find this thing!" Can't let it affect the citizens of the Metropolis! ”

"Now, that group of agents has made us enemies, and they're searching for us all over the manor, and they're numerous, and each of them has a weapon."

"I'm not afraid of them, I can get away with them wherever I encounter them, but you and Lex can't, I can't leave you alone, because that madman has bewitched the agents, and they may kill you."

"I ...... Actually, I'll just lie down for a while. Clark was still trying to get up from the bed, he didn't want to be the one who dragged his feet, but he soon realized that things were getting worse.

His strength is indeed recovering, but after reaching a certain level, the recovery speed slows down, and the range of the creature's stance is the same, that is, the upper limit of his ability is temporarily weakened.

"Exactly two hours have passed since you first weakened, and my guess is that the radiation under the manor may be periodic." Bruce reasoned very seriously.

"I have a bad feeling." Clark's face also became serious, and he regained a little strength, and sat up from the bed, shaking his head and appearing a little silent, as if it was difficult to explain to Bruce the source of his intuition.

Just then, there was another series of noises in the hallway, sounding like running footsteps, and Bruce walked to the door, opened it a small crack, and took a peek at it, noticing that the agents were running down the stairs in droves.

"We need to get out of here, do you still have the strength?"

Bruce ripped off the sheet, twisted it into a strand of rope, and went into the bathroom room, tying the knot to the water pipe.

Clark hesitated, but the noise outside was getting louder, and Clark walked to the window as Bruce jumped from the window to the ledge downstairs.

Bruce looked up at him, as if he was silently urging, but Clark didn't pull the sheet, but flew out directly under Bruce's surprised gaze.

Although he was still weak, it didn't take much strength to fly out of the window, and he only needed to descend two floors, so the landing was smooth, and Clark turned to Bruce next to him and said, "Well, I admit it, I have some abilities beyond the average person." ”

Just then, a window was opened two floors above them, and Lex's head poked out, and he threw a rope at them, and Bruce grabbed the rope and jumped to the side balcony, then kicked the wall up.

Clark made a gesture in place, he looked left and right, and after making sure that there was no one else around, he took off again and flew directly to Lex's room.

Lex glanced at Clark and then at Bruce, and said, "...... He's really your helicopter engine. ”

Bruce ignored him and walked straight to the center of the room, where he looked at the furnishings and saw that the room had not been modernized and looked like a maid's room that had been abandoned for a long time.

"You need to go through a secret passage downstairs to get there, and it's not easy to get around, so it's safe for now." Lex held on to the window frame and looked out the window, where the courtyard of the manor was filled with agents.

Clark stepped forward and said in a somewhat anxious tone, "We need to find a way to find out what might be radioactive, and we need to resolve the misunderstanding with the agents......"

Lex frowned, a hint of anger appeared between his eyebrows, and he said, "Resolve the misunderstanding? There was no misunderstanding between me and the dead. ”

"You...... You want to kill them all? Clark's eyes widened as if he had heard something incredible, and he stammered, "This...... Isn't that enough? Even if...... But ......"

"Did they spare their hands when they shot at you? They want to kill me, why can't I kill them? ”

Lex reached out and touched the back of his neck, which still had blood stains from the attack he had previously been wounded by the agents.

He walked up to Clark, stared into his eyes and said, "Because of your strength, these ordinary people can't do you harm, of course you can pretend to be generous and tolerant of them." ”

"But if Wayne hadn't arrived in time, I would have died at their hands, I was just taking revenge."

Clark looked at him and was silent, for he knew that Lex was right, but he was still very resistant to killing.

Except for Clark, the other two had no overlapping expressions on their faces, because they knew that the agents were not to worry, they had a way to get around these people, and the only problem was the "comedian" who leaked information they didn't know.

At this moment, there was a "boom", and the secret door on the floor was knocked open again.

This time, it was not the sound of footsteps, but the sound of bullets being fired, and the gunfire of the repeating weapon was like a raging storm, and Clark, who was facing away from the secret door, instantly turned around, stretched out his hands, and fixed the bullet.

Bruce just opened the window and said, "Let's go!" ”

Bruce flipped out first, Lex was a little slower, and finally, Clark flew out right in front of the agents, but this time, there was no balcony directly below them, and they had to jump diagonally down.

Bruce jumped first, he rolled as hard as he could on the narrow balcony, but he still hit his arm, and Lex didn't dare to jump at all, because he knew that his strength was not enough for him to jump over, and if he didn't jump over, this was the sixth floor, and he would definitely die.

Clark flew directly into the sky, and then held Lex's two arms from below, and jumped down with him, and the two fell headlong on the balcony, and after getting up, Lex's forehead was broken, and Clark gasped twice.

After his strength was weakened, his ability to fly at will had changed from 360 degrees to a gliding-like ability, and taking a person who was not light in weight took a lot of Clarke's physical strength.

The few people didn't have time to talk nonsense, so they just opened the balcony door and rushed in, who knew that there were guests in this room, Bruce could only rush up with one lunge, knock the lady who wanted to scream unconscious, and then drag her into the bathroom.

When he came out, he rolled up the sleeves of his clothes and saw that his elbow joint was already swollen, and he was not lightly injured by the impact just now.

"This can't go on, that person should be in the same place as the surveillance room, he can see the situation in all the rooms, so he can provide detailed real-time location information to the group of agents,"

"In this way, we will always be in the midst of a chased encounter, and the other side will not only have a pistol, but even a repeating weapon, and we will only be at a disadvantage forever if we flee like this."

As he spoke, Bruce looked around, trying to find out where the monitor was, but there were many patterns on the ceiling and walls of the English manor, and there were all kinds of complicated patterns on the furniture, so it was difficult to tell where the monitor was placed.

However, the feeling of being watched made Bruce feel like a man, and at this point, Lex said, "We need to test if there is a delay from the monitor to the monitoring screen?" Is there a delay in the person on the other side calling the agent after seeing the surveillance screen? Was there a delay in the agents' actions after receiving the message? ”

"Once these come together, there's a good chance that it will leave us with a buffer period that we can use to set traps against them."

"That's what I thought too." Bruce agreed, but he looked at Lex and Clark and said, "The only problem is, you two aren't in good shape." ”

Bruce crossed his arms and stared at Lex and said, "If we want to test, we have to lead them all at least twice, and your physical strength may not be able to support you to run." ”

"And he......" Bruce said again, looking at Clark again, "Although I speculate that the radiation burst may be once every two hours, but the data is not enough, and the inference may not be accurate, and once it erupts in the middle of the way, you will immediately lose your mobility." ”

"But now, I'm much stronger than all of you." Clark stepped forward, he glanced at Lex and said, "You explore the way ahead, I can take him." ”

"I'm not afraid of bullets, I can fly, I'm much faster than you, I can sense their position, once I'm weak, you can leave immediately, don't worry about me, they can't kill me."

"I really don't know, where did you get this ridiculous self-confidence?"

Lex stared straight at Clark and said, "Haven't you noticed yet?" The agents were crazy, they dared to shoot anyone. ”

"It's not that they don't dare to kill me, it's that they can't kill me."

At this time, Clark, whose face was serious, and his voice was full of convincing authority, said:

"Impacts, sharp weapons, bullets, flames, all the weapons in this world, as long as I don't want to be hurt, nothing can hurt me."
