Chapter 1520 C: Twilight Event (Twenty-Six)
Chapter 1513 C Twilight Event (Twenty-six)
But there was another group of people who came earlier than Cain - the witch Circe and her recruited companions.
"Bruce, you can't fool me. Your ridiculous mask can't stop the soul tracking. Do you think that if you spread the news that you are in Gotham, I will foolishly attack that city?"
The witch Circe walked in from the main entrance triumphantly. She looked at Batman's downward corner of his mouth with satisfaction, and then glanced at the blood elder with a livid face next to him, and continued in a light tone.
"Hundreds of years have passed, and you still haven't made any progress. You were fooled by such a little trick. The most dangerous place is the safest place, but today, Bruce, you made a wrong idea."
"You want to interfere in the feud between Cain and me?" Batman narrowed his eyes and looked at Circe, asking.
"I just want the core fragment. When I get it, Eclipse will give me incomparable power. By then, both you and Cain will be destroyed."
Batman turned his head and looked at the motionless blood-red eye ornament. He frowned slightly and whispered: "...It seems that he is very busy now. Well, Ms. Cersei, how about we play a game?"
Batman stepped forward and took out a prism from his arms and placed it on the table. The witch Cersei recognized that it was the core fragment and her eyes lit up immediately.
"This is what you want. It is only three meters away from you now, and the button in my hand..." Batman stretched out his other hand, holding a button with an orange key.
"It controls a big bomb that can blow up all of us here. Your teleportation magic and shield will not work."
"So now, you want to take a gamble. Do you rush over to take the core first or do I press the button to blow everyone up first?"
The witch Circe's foot froze. She looked at Batman with a little hesitation, and finally did not choose to act rashly.
As a person in the mystic world, the legend of Batman that the witch Circe heard was more from hell. Batman could make such a big noise in hell, which shows that he is quite accomplished in mysticism, and it is not impossible to make her teleportation spell and shield ineffective.
In the absence of magic, it is still unknown whether she can survive the violent explosion. The longer a person lives, the more he cherishes his life. Obviously, Circe thinks it is not worthwhile to gamble with her life.
"Batman, don't do this kind of thing." Circe's tone softened, and she did not dare to use other magic, fearing that Batman would see through it and cause him to press the button irrationally.
Circe was a little timid because she overestimated Batman's level of mysticism. She thought this was her chance to launch a surprise attack, but she didn't expect to step into the trap set by the other party for the vampires. In addition to thinking that she was unlucky, Circe didn't plan to give up.
"Batman, we all know that we are not enemies of each other, because you have the most important core fragments, and I have the most ordinary fragments. We should cooperate."
Circe stepped forward gently, lowered her voice and said: "You see, you can't build a complete Heart of Darkness without ordinary fragments, and I can't get the power of Eclipse without core fragments. It's meaningless for us to insist on each other."
"We should unite to find all the fragments first, and then evenly distribute the power after building a complete Heart of Darkness. I am even willing to take a step back and let my people find ordinary fragments. You only need to contribute core fragments to get half of the powerful power of Eclipse. How about it?"
Batman narrowed his eyes slightly. Seeing that he didn't speak, Circe took another step forward and explained: "I know you are worried that I will change my mind at the last minute, but I am also worried that you will not keep your promise. Verbal guarantees have no effect. We can sign a contract to ensure that there will be no changes in the cooperation."
The muscles around Batman's eyes stretched out, and his eyes were a little empty, as if he was thinking about something. Seeing that the persuasion was effective, Circe began to lobby further.
Circe's lips were almost worn out, and Batman only changed his expression without saying a word. At this time, Circe also felt something was wrong. Her face froze. Just as she was about to say something, a bloody wind blew from the door. Circe turned around and saw the pale Cain standing at the door, folding his bat wings. He had a crazy smile on his face, but his cold eyes showed that he was not happy. Batman's eyes fell completely on Cain's face. He looked Cain up and down and said, "Are you injured?" Cain laughed crazily twice and said, "I was stabbed by a little guy who looks like you. You two really look alike." He turned into a blood mist again and swept through the hall. Suddenly, an elder standing at the table grabbed his neck tightly. In just a few seconds, he became shriveled and pale. "No! Original! No..."
He screamed madly, but all the blood in his body was drained. After landing, Cain sighed with satisfaction, but Batman stared at his face and said, "Are you telling me that you don't care about your descendants? How cruel."
"I never thought of leaving my descendants behind, Batman. You want to use this trick against me, which is stupid beyond my imagination."
"You too, Joker, do you want me to tell you about the joke of you sending your stupid descendants to Wayne Manor to capture my child, and ended up being hung on a tree?"
The expression on Cain's face suddenly stiffened, and he swept the vampire elders in the field with an extremely cold gaze. At this time, a vampire elder who had not yet figured out the situation showed a flattering smile and said: "Ancestor, we just want to use this to threaten Bruce to hand over the core fragments...Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
After a fierce scream, the vampire elder also turned into a mummy. All the others were in panic and turned into bats to escape. Batman said indifferently: "I will press the button if anyone dares to go out. Believe me, you can't escape the explosion range in such a short time."
The elder Bruch, who was in charge, completely collapsed. He looked at Batman and Cain and shouted loudly: "What are you doing?!"
But Circe thought this was a good opportunity. She hurriedly looked at Batman and said: "Batman, the vampires cannot be trusted. We should unite to subdue Cain first and use his blood as a sacrifice to Eclipse!"
Instantly, Batman and Cain turned their heads to look at her at the same time.
In Wayne Manor, Harley and several other children gathered together to count the current harvest. She counted on her fingers: "Deathstroke found more than 100 fragments for us, and the account has been settled. The thieves in Gotham collected more than 300 fragments in total, and Cobblepot also gave them gifts. Selina sent more than 50 pieces, and I gave her a beautiful gem necklace."
"So now we have more than 450 fragments." Damian sighed and said, "There are still half of them that have not been found. What should we do?"
Just then, they heard a noise downstairs, and several people ran out and found Alfred serving tea to Clark.
"Hey, hello, is Bruce here? I have something to do with him."
"He's out, what do you want to do with him?" Jason asked.
"Oh, nothing. He asked me to find black diamonds. Bruce helped me a lot before, so I have been busy with this these days. I want to give him the black diamonds I found. Is he here?"
Several children immediately ran downstairs, looked up at his face and asked, "How many did you find?"
"More than 350, thanks to Krypton. He has a very good nose and is a master at finding things." Clark sighed and continued, "Bruce is right. This thing is a bit dangerous. When I went to find diamonds, many people were already unconscious and crazy and beat people. Fortunately, I subdued them all."
Several children looked at each other and restrained the surprised expressions in their eyes. Jason coughed and covered his mouth, then said, "Oh, you are quite powerful, but there are still many to be found."
"Oh, yes, but these should be all the black diamonds within the range of the earth that I can feel. The rest may be in some places that I can't feel. Although there are not many such places, they do exist."
Harry pulled Jason's sleeve, and several children followed her to the side. Their heads were put together. Harley lowered her voice and said, "In this case, we have 800 pieces, which is very close to the goal."
But Jason frowned and said, "I know Clark, he is very powerful. If he can't find it..."
"Oh, Clark, you are here." A familiar figure appeared at the door. Clark turned around and saw Bruce.
Bruce was wearing casual clothes and holding a box in his hand. Clark walked over and patted his shoulder and said, "I found more than 350 black diamonds for you. I hope it's enough. I've tried my best."
"Thank you so much." Bruce nodded and said, "Very good. I still have 100 here. I just beat up a witch, or watched others beat her up."
"After she was beaten down, I tied her to a chair and threatened her that I would press the button of the bomb to blow her up. She gave me all the black diamonds she collected. She's a good person, right?"
Except for Damian who took a breath, the other children ran up excitedly and looked into his box.
There were indeed a lot of black diamonds lying in it, adding up to more than 100. Harley counted again and said, "Then there are 900, but what about the remaining 100? Where will they be?"
Bruce handed the box to the children, turned around and walked to the telephone station, dialed a number, and then said to the other side.
"Hello, Professor Schiller? Oh, it's like this. I've been looking for black diamonds and now I'm only one hundred short of finding them. Do you know where they are? ... You've returned to Gotham, right? OK, see you later."
About half an hour later, Bruce appeared outside the door of Rodriguez Manor. Butler Merkel was busy fertilizing crops in the garden. Seeing Bruce outside the window, he hurried forward to open the door for him.
When Bruce walked in, Schiller had just come out of the bedroom. He walked down the stairs while buttoning his suit, and looked Bruce up and down. Bruce was wearing a sports suit and had nothing on him except a clear and stupid temperament.
Schiller said helplessly, "Is it so difficult to exchange a bottle of red wine for what you want? Why do you think I collect them?"
Bruce stretched out a hand to him, made a gesture to stop him, then walked to the telephone in the hall and dialed a number, and said to the other side.
"Hello, Diana? It's me, where are you and Nightwing now? Remember what I asked you to build before? ... You have brought it back from Mount Olympus, right?"
"Yes, I need it now, just send it over through the portal."
A few seconds after hanging up the phone, a portal opened next to Bruce, and with a "bang", a huge box fell to the ground, and Schiller raised his eyebrows.
Bruce walked up and slapped the lid of the box hard, and the four sides of the box fell down. Schiller opened his eyes wide when he saw what was in the box.
Bruce pointed to the things in the box and said.
"Red wine is too uncreative. Only old antiques would give it as a gift."
"Look at this. It was forged by Hephaestus, the god of fire on Mount Olympus. The shell is made of volcanic iron and deep-sea crystal. It is endowed with sixteen kinds of solid magic and twenty-two kinds of divine power blessings. It has been tested by the thunder of the Lord of the Gods. The magic is strong and blessed forever - Shredder!"
