Kayla stared at Alfred with wide eyes, she had never imagined that Alfred was the legendary agent who had the list and played the East Coast intelligence officers around.

"But you don't have to go from England to Moscow on the east coast of the United States, right?" Kayla asked, confused.

But then, she reacted, patted herself on the head, and said: "Oh yes, you can't go straight to Moscow, they will definitely intercept ...... on the way"

"But even if you have to take a detour, you don't have to go so far, right? From the United Kingdom to the East Coast of the United States, to the Soviet Union, this is almost a circle around the world......"

"Today, 30 years later, the world is still looking for this list, haven't you found out how important it really is?"

Hearing Alfred's words, Kayla thought about it carefully, indeed, now it seems that the main function of this list is to smooth out the mistakes of intelligence work, but now it is almost 30 years later, this list can not even be said to be invalid, and many of the people recorded on it may have died.

But if it was 30 years ago, it would be self-evident how important a list of important spies of various countries at that time was.

Alfred pulled a deerskin out of his pocket and began to wipe the barrel of the shotgun in his hand, saying: "Moscow has given many routes, but without exception, they are all within the sniper range of the CIA. ”

"In those days, the CIA was pervasive, and I have to say that American agents at that time were much stronger than they are now."

"Then why...... Oh my God, the most dangerous place is the safest place?! So you're heading straight to the U.S.?? ”

Alfred smiled, as if to lament Kayla's youth, saying, "There is some truth to the saying that the most dangerous place is the safest place, but it does not make a decisive factor in an important decision." ”

"In 1961, Allen Dulles, the CIA's longest-serving director, stepped down, and that was a very powerful old guy who catapulted the CIA's prestige at home and abroad."

"However, after 1961, his successor was not as powerful as him, a year has passed, the work is almost fruitless, just sorting out the work left by the previous director, it took him a long time, even the people jokingly call him a stunned young man from the Air Force, of course Moscow knows."

"And, during Allen's tenure, the CIA's scope of competence expanded dramatically, even replacing some of Congress's functions, and he did his job so well that the CIA's prestige and reputation rose too high."

"So, Congress will definitely restrict them, right?" Kayla asked, and then she said with some disdain, "These Americans are like this, and the infighting never ends." ”

"Yes, they deliberately found an incompetent successor to take Allen's place, making a mess of the job, and then amending the security laws to further limit the scope of the CIA's functions, in short, the CIA of that period ......"

Alfred dragged out a long note and shook his head, and Kayla understood what he meant.

If, according to Alfred, the situation was like this, then the United States was indeed a very safe place, and in order to limit the functions of the CIA, Congress would not allow the CIA to intervene even if they knew that spies might have escaped here.

What Americans are best at is to create one institution and then create another institution to restrict it, and then create another institution to limit the two of them, and then give them a name called separation of powers.

Whenever these three institutions punch each other out of their dogs' brains, they call it a "victory for democracy."

And when more organizations knock out the dog's brain for this reason, they don't care about the reduced efficiency, and the absurd accident of stumbling on the right foot with the left foot and blocking the right hand with the left hand, they will only feel that their monitoring mechanism is really successful.

"Moreover, Gotham has always been an outlaw place, although the Falcone family has ruled Gotham at that time, but the system of the twelve families has not yet been fully established, or rather, it was the throes of reform at that time, and there were gangsters everywhere, which was very suitable for fishing in troubled waters."

"Indeed, this is a very clever approach, as long as you lurk in Gotham for a while, and Moscow releases the word that the list has reached them, then your return trip will be much safer." Kayla nodded.

"The original plan was indeed like this, but there were some unexpected ......"

Kayla looked at Alfred and asked, "What accident?" ”

Alfred let out a rare sigh, as if thinking of something he didn't want to recall, and said, "In Gotham City, there has always been a unique force hidden, wearing masks, hiding in the shadows, watching over everyone, trying to control the city. ”

"They're called the Owl Court."

"It was a bunch of crazy people who would do anything for power and status, and one day in March, when I went to church to pray, I 'accidentally' overheard a conversation between Falcone, the godfather of Gotham, and Daniel, the bishop of Gotham Cathedral at the time......"

Kayla heard Alfred bite the accent on the word "accident", and she understood that Alfred was hinting that he had been following the two men for a long time and was investigating them, so he heard something.

"They say that the Owl Court has gotten a magical egg, and it seems that they wanted to put it in a special pool under the cathedral......"

"Eggs? What are the eggs? Kayla asked, confused.

Alfred took a deep breath and said:

"A monster's egg."

"What is this? A monster's egg? ”

In the basement of the manor, in a large hall, Lex asked as he looked at the thing in the center of the hall with some confusion.

At this time, all the members of this underground exploration team were in a strange state, Bruce and Lex were surrounded by a wisp of gray mist, they could see this gray mist themselves, but they didn't raise any objections, Bruce supported the pale Clark, who was still coughing weakly.

When they came down from the cellar entrance, they found that it was indeed just an ordinary cellar, but soon, things developed beyond their imagination.

In the corridor leading to the cellar, the anomaly was not very obvious, it looked like a bunker built by a medieval nobleman, there was no technological content, there was nothing anomalous, and the kind of special mineral that Schiller called did not appear.

But after walking down the hallway, Clark felt something unusual, as he began to feel himself weakening.

At the end of the hallway, Lex and Bruce try to dissuade Clark, but Clark insists on making sure that the mineral is not a danger to normal people, so they continue inside.

Soon, a glowing green light appeared, and at this point, Schiller stopped everyone, and said, "You don't plan to go straight over, do you?" ”

"I have to remind you that this mineral is also radioactive to ordinary people, and unlike any mineral on earth, human radiation suits may not be useful."

Lex and Bruce looked at each other, and they both saw the same emotion in each other's eyes, that is, they didn't want to take the risk, but they were curious inside.

I have a way to protect you, but ......"

Schiller pulled a long tone, and then suddenly said: "I heard that the Wayne Group and the Luthor Group are the economic lifeblood of the Middle East coast and the mainstay of the American economy. ”

Bruce was a little dazed, and didn't know why Schiller suddenly mentioned this, but Lex suddenly understood, and he said in a good way:

"A method that can protect against radiation from unknown minerals is worth a thousand dollars, of course the Luthor Group is willing to pay some price for this technology, professor, we can talk about the specific number later, but it will definitely not disappoint you......"

Bruce looked at Schiller's smile and was a little stunned, then narrowed his eyes again, and he realized that something was wrong.

When did Schiller become interested in money???

Did he take the wrong medicine????

Seeing that Schiller turned his gaze to him again, Bruce didn't even know how to speak for a moment, but soon, he cleared his throat and said, "The price doesn't matter, what matters, how effective is it?" ”

With a wave of his hand, two wisps of gray mist surrounded the two of them, and it was visible to the naked eye that the glowing green light was blocked, and the effect seemed to be very obvious.

Clark immediately turned his head to Schiller and looked at Schiller expectantly, but Schiller walked straight inside as if he didn't see his eyes.

Clark struggled to chase after him and said, "Oh! Professor, is there any misunderstanding between us? ”

"Professor! I feel like I need some defenses too! Professor ......"

"It doesn't work for you." Schiller rejected him with great indifference, and Clark showed a look of frustration and could only follow a few people.

Inside, the situation began to get a little serious, they first entered a hall, the walls around this place were almost all made of that kind of green stone, no need for any lamps, the light emitted by the kryptonite was enough to illuminate an entire hall, you can see how large the number is.

At this point, Clark could barely walk on his own, and had to be supported by Bruce, but looking at Schiller's nobody-like posture, Bruce and Lex knew that they had been fooled again.

But by now, the function of the mineral itself is no longer important, what is important, who built it in the end? And what is it built for?

Obviously, the rumors are wrong, because Bruce didn't find any experimental equipment here, whether it is a radiation experiment or a human radiation experiment, which requires a lot of professional equipment, but there is no such thing here.

Passing through the hall and down a hallway, you'll find a huge underground cavern, a stunning sight.

In the huge underground cavern, most parts of the walls have not been repaired, they are still ordinary rock formations, and even dripping, but there are many solid walls, like wedges that have been hewn into, distributed throughout the cavity from top to bottom.

Every place with walls has a very strange contraption on it, and in the center of the contraption is a huge green kryptonite.

At this point, the light of these kryptonite seems to be channeled by the glass outer wall of the device, forming a solid green beam, several beams intersecting, concentrated at one point, and at this point, a platform is suspended in the air, and there is an egg on it.

The egg was so large that several people needed to look up at it, and the color was gray overall, but the color was gray on the outside, and there were many rock-like spikes on the surface, and the tips of the spikes were still emitting a blue shimmer.

Just as Lex asked the question, they heard Schiller's cold voice coming from behind them: "All stand back." ”

Bruce turned his head and looked at Schiller, who was standing far away, and when he saw Schiller's expression, he knew that Schiller probably knew what it was, and he asked, "What kind of egg is this?" ”

"A Monster ......"

"What monster?"

"A monster that is so terrible that even Clark in his heyday can't deal with it......"

Schiller's gaze kept falling on the egg, and his deep tone echoed in the hollow, echoing in a distant voice:

"It's called...... Day of Destruction. ”
