Chapter 67: Gotham

"Cerberus...? No, it's not the main body, but it's similar. ”

A strange light flashed in Athena's eyes as she watched the battle.

The aftermath of the explosion created a strong wind pressure that swept over her shoulders and blew her purple hair.

As the shock wave swept away, Athena saw Chen Sheng's figure standing intact in the crater at the center of the explosion.

The hill-like hellhound flew backwards for a hundred meters, smashing the earth with a huge muffled sound, but it seemed to react quickly, and in an instant when it landed, it rolled over and stood on all fours again, and its gray-black hairy body did not seem to be damaged.

"Otherworldly gods!"

Cerberus's voice sounded extremely low and terrifying, with a ferocious beast-like tyranny, and a pair of scarlet eyes as big as a window stared tightly in Chen Sheng's direction.

Chen Sheng was about to continue to step forward, and Athena's voice appeared in his mind.

"Don't fight, don't forget our plans."

His raised arm froze, then glanced back in Athena's direction.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Sheng didn't say anything, his eyes were full of murderous intent, and he took a deep look at the hideous and terrifying huge black dog, and the phantom of the gods behind him disappeared abruptly, and then flew back to Athena's side.

"Let's go to the next location."

With a flash of golden light, he drew a secret door that connected to another space.

While Cerberus was still wondering what the two were trying to do, Chen Sheng and Athena entered the secret door and disappeared.

However, the golden portal has not disappeared.

In the next moment, the two of them traveled thousands of kilometers and came to the territory of the beautiful country.

Beautiful country - Gotham City.

Gotham in the dark is even more grotesque and gloomy.

The city seems to be forever shrouded in a cloud of fog at night, on the surface, Gotham is more prosperous than the city of Toron, Canada, it has the most developed transportation rail system in the country, and also occupies a considerable part of the GDP income, but under this superficial drunken pompousness, it hides a lot of dirt and evil that is unknown or widely known.

In the middle of the main road street at night, a tall man with a woman and their children, a family of three, walked out of the neon-lit theater and entered the sidewalk on the right side of the main road street.

The black-haired, brown-eyed boy took his mother's arm and whispered about the movie he thought was too scary.

The mother was soothing the boy's complaints, teasing the boy and laughing, but soon he yawned profusely.

I was sleepy with my mother, he said to his mother.

And shook her arm.

Perhaps because of the boy's pestering to go home quickly, the loving mother looked at her father with a little helplessness and distressed smile.

My father didn't refuse, so they turned into a short road that led homeβ€”

A remote alley that is not usually walked by many people.

A family of three, talking and laughing, walked suddenly, my father received a phone call.

He pulled out the large mobile phone in his pocket and answered it.

But as he whispered, his father's expression became a little solemn.

What's wrong?

The mother saw that the expression on the face of the father who hung up the phone was abnormal, and she couldn't help but ask.

It's nothing. It's just that the assistant called and told them to go back earlier, and it seemed that something unsafe was happening in the city.

The father replied quickly, the smile on his face had basically subsided, and he took his mother's hand, and the mother naturally grabbed the palm of the boy next to her.

The three of them sped up, and soon, they were about to reach the end of this dirty and remote alley.

But suddenly, a figure came out of the alley.

It's a visual blind spot.

No one cares about a pile of household garbage piled up there, as if forgotten by the whole world, exudes a faint smell, almost as tall as a person, and can perfectly hide the body of an adult.

He stood in the middle of the narrow alley, standing in front of a family of three.

The tall father suddenly stopped.

His eyes shrank as he saw something appear in front of him that wasn't supposed to be.

It was the hand-held object of the man in front of him dressed like a vagabond.

A cold black pistol.

.............

"Here it is..."

Chen Sheng and Athena stood on a deserted remote street.

He looked around, and for some reason, he had a strange sense of dΓ©jΓ  vu for the black and gray buildings here.

Looks like I've seen something like this somewhere.

At this time, the night was deep, and the place was very quiet, as if thousands of households had fallen into a deep sleep, only the neon lights and three-dimensional street lamps on both sides of the streets were still bright, rendering the darkness with a hint of hazy light.

"This is Eagle Country, a city called Gotham."

Athena glanced around, looking into the distance, as if to confirm something, before speaking.

She seemed to be familiar with modern humans, and easily recognized the place where it belonged.

Gotham!

A flash of imperceptible surprise flashed in Chen Sheng's eyes.

But he didn't show it in his face.

Eagle Country, another title of the Beautiful Country, just like Huaxia will also be called the Kingdom of Middle Earth, Chen Sheng is not surprised.

But it's impossible for him not to be familiar with Gotham, because it's the number one place where evil is bred in the DC universe, and it's known as 'Gotham City'.

It is also the homeland and hometown of the future Batman.

It's just that although he came here, Chen Sheng didn't know what kind of state Gotham was in at the moment, after all, many things in this world were different from his cognition, maybe here, Batman was not born yet, or Batman had already debuted, maybe it wasn't possible.

"Don't delay, let's go."

Athena whispered.

β€œ... Are you sure that shaggy dog will catch up? ”

Chen Sheng mentioned the matter of Fang Cai, but his face sank again, he turned his head and glanced at the secret method gate that was still continuing behind him.

Obviously, that Rentou Mountain left a deep impression on his heart.

No matter what, even if they are not people from the same world, they are all human beings after all, and in the face of such a tragic death of innocent people, regardless of men, women, and children, Chen Sheng's heart was still ignited with indescribable anger.

even wanted to kill the beast directly, but the other party was not weak, he went all out, but he only suppressed the other party, if he really wanted to decide the victory, I am afraid it would take at least a lot of time to do it.

"Yes, it recognizes your breath, just like Kratos."

β€œ... This time, the distance of the teleportation is a little closer to the target, go. ”

Chen Sheng silently sensed the spatial anomaly here, as if sensing the coordinates of the entrance, he and Diana disappeared on this street in a few moments.

"Bang β€”β€”!!"

When the two of them passed by an intersection and were about to approach the target location, suddenly, Chen Sheng heard a crisp and bright gunfire from the end of another street.

He couldn't help but glance sideways in that direction, but in his dim vision, he saw the low walls at the end of the street, painted with strange and twisted graffiti.

β€œ... Sure enough, it's Gotham City, where the folk customs are simple. ”

Chen Sheng had the urge to find out for a moment, but he quickly extinguished this thought.

The current situation obviously does not have extra energy, let him care about an inexplicable gunshot.

Retracting his gaze, Chen Sheng and Athena quickly moved away.

The two crossed two streets again and came to a garden district in the city.

"Don't you think it's a little strange, the city is so quiet."

Chen Sheng and Athena stopped in an open area of a fountain.

Even if Gotham is bad and every family knows about curfews, those monsters of hell can't be no longer a threat just because people are hiding in their houses. ’

Chen Sheng thought in his heart.

It should be full of riots, but why is it like this? ’

Along the way, he only heard the somewhat inexplicable gunfire before, which was very different from when he was in Duolun City, Canada.

The latter's entire city seemed to be on fire, and even the sound of artillery fire was heard incessantly, apparently an army had been dispatched to fight against the invading creatures of the underworld.

β€œ... Maybe it's the undead. ”

Athena said suddenly.

"Undead?"

"That's right. There are gods of sleep and death in the underworld, as well as some other subordinate gods of related priesthoods, and if the initiator of the gap between the two realms here can recruit the undead, or travel through the dream world, he can completely harvest the source of human life and soul silently. ”

Athena's eyes sparkled with wisdom.

β€œ... It's all tricky stuff. ”

Chen Sheng frowned, but he didn't hesitate much, immediately closed his eyes, and began to accurately lock the entrance of the dimensional gap.

Ten seconds later, he opened his eyes, and then repeated his old technique, pointing at the void in front of him.

With a slight shattering sound like a mirror cracking, the figures of the two disappeared from the spot.
