"They're having an emergency meeting, sir."

On Friday, the screen was displayed in front of Chu Cheng, and the screen was a "top-secret meeting" urgently held between high-level officials.

Of course, it is not so top secret in front of the fifth sister.

"It looks like they've agreed to negotiate peacefully, and they're ready to finalise who to negotiate with us. At the moment, no one should have any extra thoughts. Friday reported, "I'll keep an eye on it, sir." ”

"Very well, let's move on to something else in the meantime."

Although there is a lot of fanfare here to prepare for the next stage, of course, the daily practice must not be left behind. You can't run the level that you should have experience, and you still have to brush it.,No matter what plan to take what development route.,More and stronger heroes are still fundamental.。

"Yes sir. I've got a couple of new situations here, and you'll see which one you want to prioritize. ”

Friday switches screens as he speaks, and a new mission selection appears on the screen.

First of all, it's still on the Huicheng side.

Lawyer Ma and Kassandra have been active in Huicheng for a while. During this period, Daredevil specializes in street crime, Bat Lori specializes in dealing with special killers, and with the cooperation of the two, the crime rate in Huicheng is decreasing at a rate visible to the naked eye, and the name of the Red Pass Demon is getting louder and louder.

Ordinary criminals have been cowardly, and after Black Sun was defeated, there were fewer and fewer killers from other organizations who dared to come to Huicheng to make trouble after weighing their own pounds. Huicheng's branch refresh rate is plummeting compared to before, and Chu Cheng is already thinking about keeping Kashan in Huicheng and taking Lawyer Ma to the next experienced new city to open up wasteland.

There are currently two branch lines available. One is the suspicion triggered by lawyer Ma in Huicheng, and the other is still from the Black Sun organization. But this broken organization has already burped from the leader to the elite, and it feels like it may be the last wave of wool that can be picked.

"The last time you paid attention to the headquarters of Black Sun? I combined the information I found from the killer's network to mark three possible locations. Friday said, "Maybe you'd like to arrange for the death knell to go to see it?" ”

"Yes."

Chu Cheng also felt that it was almost time to finish up on these killers. However, he did not plan to go to the dens of others, but instead sent Deathstroke to prepare for a "friendly conversation".

In his vision, the Black Sun was just the beginning, the origin of his control over the entire killer world on this planet. Knell will sweep through all the legendary killers so far, becoming the only legend in the killer world on the Pole Star until he controls all the killers in the entire industry.

Chu Cheng entered the hero selection interface, and he had already selected Knell and was ready to land, when he was suddenly interrupted by Friday.

"Oh wait, sir, there's a new quest triggering...... You might be more interested in hearing this. She showed Chu Cheng the updated mission options, "It's those ancients who have discovered it." ”

"Oh?"

The other three Ancients whose whereabouts are unknown are undoubtedly the top priority of the current nine searches. Because this one is different from the other two ancients that have been taken down so far, they are not easy to catch by walking the road route, so it may not be so easy to find them in the first place.

But fortunately, there is an inner ghost among them. Layla helped the Asylum decipher the behavior patterns of the teammates and help predict their next move. More importantly, she helped Professor Miyazaki find a new type of device that could locate the Ancients to a certain extent, and within a certain range, if the Ancients used their abilities to infect, there was a chance that they could be able to locate their approximate location.

Therefore, Chu Cheng, who monitored the insane asylum system throughout the whole process, naturally also shared their early warning device, and also got the alarm that appeared in response from the ancients.

"That plan has changed."

The lock box on Chu Cheng's screen moved along the list of characters, and finally settled on Batman. The Dark Knight at the top of the list flicks his cloak and creates a close-up pose of the character being selected.

"Let's go see which rat got out of the hole."

......

Pingcheng.

Steven Raimundi leaned against the dirty head of the bed, tilted his head back with a bottle and poured it into his mouth. But when he lifted it, he found that there was not much wine left in the bottle, and only a few drops slipped down the mouth of the bottle into his throat after pouring it for a long time, and then he didn't move no matter how he poured it.

With some exasperation, he threw the bottle on the carpet beside him. The carpet, which was supposed to be red, was now dirty and almost inky black, and wine cans and bottles were thrown on the floor, as well as garbage and debris that had been thrown around.

Raimundi lay on the bed, barely able to lift his arms with the strength of the upsurge of alcohol. He squinted his eyes and looked out the window, at a lit window in the opposite house, where he could see the living room from the angle of his bedroom window.

He saw that the man of the house was happily picking up his little daughter and kissing him. They affixed a new certificate to the wall of the living room, and the hostess made a large table of sumptuous dishes to treat their proud daughter.

And Raimundi just leaned here, lying bored, without supper and not even a drop of wine left.

Irritably, he reached for his phone and clicked on the voicemail.

"Steven? It's me, Lana...... There are some things I don't want to say, but we can't say it anymore. I know you're having a hard time, but so am I. We can't go on like this, it's too painful for us. We are adults and we have to learn to make trade-offs when facing life.

So that's what I'm going to say...... Let's stop here, Steven, it's good for you and me. ”

There was a sound of a drip, and the voice message ended here.

In a fit of rage, he threw the phone out, hit the closet with a thud, and fell to the floor.

He leaned against the head of the bed, lying in the darkness for a moment, and then his eyes involuntarily moved to the window opposite.

The family of three was happily eating under the warm warm light. The man was putting vegetables in the bowl of his wife and daughter, and his face was full of happiness.

In the darkness, a woman's voice rang out.

"You've been watching them for years, haven't you?" She said leisurely.

Raimundi stared at the window in fascination, not speaking.

"You watch them get married and have children. Watching them get promoted, more and more money, higher status, more and more excellent children.

There are always people who visit them, and people who come to the door with gifts. But what about you? You have nothing.

No children, no visitors, and even the only important woman in your life thinks you're not worth it. ”

Ophelia, the Ancient, appeared like a ghost, her long hair fluttering, whispering in the man's ear.

"Why should someone get better and better and you can't? Why should only others be happy? ”

"Yes...... Yes. ”

Raimundi's eyes grew hazy.

"If I can't be happy, at least ......"

His eyes gradually became fierce, like a demon.

“...... I can let them feel my pain too. ”

The fire of jealousy burned in his eyes, and his eyes gradually changed from jealousy to ferocity, as if he couldn't wait to fly in through that window and tear that warm picture to shreds.

"Good."

Ophelia chuckled twice.

"I'll give you this opportunity and give you the power to take revenge. Destroy as you want, all those ...... that make you feel unjust

...... Well!? ”

Ophelia seemed to sense something, and her face changed suddenly.

"Wait, that's a bat...... But how could it be!? ”

Raimundi had already gotten out of bed under the bewitchment at this time, and looked at the devilish phantom in front of him with some confusion.

"No...... It's a bat...... He's coming! ”

Ophelia gritted her teeth, turned her head into a dark shadow, and disappeared directly into the shadows of the floor.

Raimundi: ???

No, what about giving me the power to take revenge?

What about my strength!?

This year, the underworld has begun to play fraud?

In the next second, the window of the apartment was kicked to pieces from the outside with a "clang". Batman folded his wings and landed firmly on the messy floor, standing up among the shards of glass.

"Friday, what about people?" Chu Cheng asked.

"Detective Mode trace scan showed it was still there, but now it's gone." Friday said, "She hid her breath. It's hard to spot if she doesn't use her abilities.

It's a shame that I almost caught her. ”

"Okay......"

Chu Cheng was a little speechless.

No, these ancients have to be a mini-boss no matter what they say, right? Can you have a little backbone?

I haven't even arrived yet, and when I smell the smell of bats from so far away, I'm so scared that I run away, it's too tasteless, right?

In desperation, he manipulated Batman to turn his head and look at the man next to him who was already scared stupidly. Then he was surprised to discover that this person actually had the enemy's logo reaction in the field of view of detective mode.

That is, judging by Batman's point of view, this is the enemy.

"Infestation?" Chu Cheng frowned.

"The scan showed no infectious reaction. No, he hasn't been infected yet. Friday said.

"So it's a fugitive?"

"No criminal record." Friday said, "But when it was found out about his work and life status, he had a large amount of debt, lost his job, and there was a possibility of criminal tendencies." ”

"That's ...... Let's put that possibility to an end. ”

said so, but Chu Cheng didn't really care.

All he cared about was that the person had a sign of hostility, which meant experience.

So the sluggish Raimundi saw in the next second that the big bat that had broken through the window suddenly turned around, and its cold gaze was cast on him, and the gloomy shadow looked particularly hideous in the moonlight.

He was full of excitement.

"Wait...... Wait a minute, I'm just thinking about it, I haven't done anything yet...... You can't, you can't......

...... Uhhh!!h ”

The man's screams echoed through the apartment.

Moments later, Batman's boots slammed into the window and said in a weirdly hoarse voice.

"If you have bad intentions, even if it's just to think about it...... I will be back. ”

Raimundi, who was covered in a bruised nose and swollen face, was lying on the floor, and his whole body trembled when he heard this, feeling like he was being stared at by a demon.

Batman leaped out of the window and flew away in the moonlight.

Raimundi lay on the ground, looking up at the ceiling.

After a while, a new idea came to him.

Maybe...... Let's go find another class.
