Origin of all things Arkham

Chapter 129 Gunshots (added for book friend Lin Bei L)

As a tough man, he was able to experience the death of his father, the death of his girlfriend, the unexpected resurrection of his girlfriend, the death of his second girlfriend, the indirect death of his second girlfriend, the death of his teacher, the resurrection of his teacher, the death of his teacher and I turned against myself...

Many of these things happened to Oliver Quinn, who was considered dead by his family and was isolated overseas within two or three years.

If he could be crazy, he would already be crazy.

In a sense, this backbone member of the Zhenglian, the Green Arrow who guards Star City, really has some of the same characteristics as Batman.

The same rich, the same awareness that their family business involves some darkness, the same awakening, the same spent a lifetime to atone for sins, and the same insistence on certain beliefs...

From this point of view, there is actually a reason why Batman chose Green Arrow as his backup candidate in case of an accident.

However, these are things for later, Zhenglian doesn't even have a prototype now, let alone this idea, Lynn and the old bat have never met all the members of Zhenglian in the future.

Although the old bat has been deliberately collecting some information about superheroes in other cities after the exchange with Lynn at the pier, and even secretly adopted a few orphans, even Lynn didn't know that they were taken away by the old bat. Where are the bats hiding, but for now, they are still weak and alone.

As for the steel bone, the old bat should have some news, but I don't know if he has admitted the wrong person.

The legend of Neptune has been around for a long time, and most of them are related to the stories of fishermen. I don’t know if the old bat can tell the difference.

Xiao Shan is relatively simple, but Xiao Shan's enemies can only be dealt with by himself.Find it or not, it doesn't make much sense.

Diana is immortal, smarter than anyone else, and still lives on such an isolated island that does not exist on the map. She has been hiding herself for more than a century, and it is not easy to find.

Hal Jordan is an idiot, and finding him later is a bit of an advantage.

Uncle Green Skin...he is directly hidden in the enemy's heart, which is not easy to find.

Green Arrow was found by Lynn.

But his state...

Lin En didn't know if he could pass the old bat's assessment.

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

He drank water in big gulps, and ate food that he had dismissed in small sips.Oliver had tears in his eyes even as he ate.

The long-lost taste of food is not enough to shake his heart. Being able to eat food from human society here, and seeing those plastic forks and foam lunch boxes, Oliver feels that he is still living in human society for a long time, isn’t it? The feeling of being alone.

That feeling should be called... hope.

After experiencing Lynn's severe beating, Oliver was keenly aware of the two most critical things.

First, Lin En has some mental problems, and every amazing move may not be malicious.

Second, although Lynn frightened and beat him, but.Don't want to kill him.

Knowing these two points, the Green Arrow, who had no more arrows in his quiver, resolutely chose to "swing away" rotten".

Lynn was finally able to complete what he wanted to say, and Oliver also heard the general meaning of Lynn.

I need you to go back and inherit Quinn Enterprises.

I need one item from your Quinn Enterprises.

If you don't give it to me, go grab it.

Give!For sure! 100% give!

Oliver really didn't want to know about Lynn's "robbery", what kind of robbery it was.

However, all the people on Mandao had already died, and he knew it all too well.

Lynn must not be allowed to rob Quinn's enterprise!
So, after the two had a cordial and friendly exchange, asked each other many questions, and gave their own serious answers, Oliver temporarily believed that Lynn was indeed here to pick him up.

This came from Lynn's own private wish.

as well as……

"You just said that someone paid you to find me, Bruce Wayne, of course I know the name.

But the price of one dollar, what is there to say? "

Sitting at the side, quietly stroking the little kitten's head, watching the setting sun reflect thousands of golden lights on the sea, and the red river, he smiled and shook his head: "This matter, you need to verify it yourself, whether it is true or not .”

The sunset over the sea was extremely red and dazzling. Lin En sat there, as if his whole body was coated with a layer of red light. The calm and smiling face looked a little innocent.

Shaking his head, Oliver felt that he was still hallucinating.

"Lyn, the outside world..."

Oliver was a little hesitant, a little choked up, and a little afraid to speak, but he still tried his best to pretend to be calm, broke the bread and stuffed it into his mouth, lowered his head, avoided Lynn's gaze, and asked vaguely : "... Lynn, my family, my mother, my sister...

Are they all okay? "

"of course."

Lynn didn't do anything wrong, just turned his head and deliberately didn't look at Oliver, looked at the sea, and Jinxia flickered in his pupils: "Your mother is very strong, your father and your departure did not break her down, she is still healthy living.

And your sister, she has grown up, and in the nearly three years since you left, she has grown from a teenage girl to a big girl. "

Lynn lowered his head and knocked on the little cat's forehead, it seemed to be about to fall asleep.

"They all miss you and they are all doing well."

"That's good...that's good."

Oliver lowered his head, covered his eyes with one hand, and grasped his thigh with the other.

"It's worth it.

I did not hold on to these long three years in vain. "

Oliver used to be just an ordinary prodigal son who knew nothing but spent money.It was the veritable life of purgatory these two years that forcibly hammered this piece of scrap iron into fine steel.

Did he ever think of ending it all, saying goodbye to this endless pain?

Yes, I have……

Of course there is.

Every time his companions and relatives were far away from him, Oliver knew that if it weren't for his incompetence, if it wasn't for his actions, it might not have happened.

The initial belief, the thing that supports him to live, is his family.

More than 1000 days and nights, separated by a vast ocean, how difficult it is.

…………

Oliver's emotions went quickly, instead of disappearing, they were pushed back to the bottom of his heart by him.

He has other things to do, a promise that must be fulfilled, and he cannot easily cry weakly.

Soon, after wiping his eyes, Oliver returned to the man who had been beaten into a piece of fine steel.

He had already eaten enough food, and the two and a half years of living in an isolated island had made him develop such a habit.

Bit by bit, eating the beef jerky that Lynn brought, Oliver's physical strength gradually began to return to normal, and his mood gradually stabilized.

He began to think about some things that had to be considered.

Go back, definitely want to go back.

Even without the presence of this strange guy, Lynn, Oliver originally decided to leave today.

Although he couldn't fully trust Lynn at all, he wasn't going to make any other small moves.

Lynn's abilities are really strange, powerful and weird. Before some things can't be understood, he thinks it's better to show some cooperation.

only……

"Lynn, can I ask you a somewhat abrupt question."

Lynn replied flatly: "You can ask whatever you want. If I don't want to answer, I won't blame you."

Oliver turned his eyes to the bow beside him, then looked at the great sword next to Lynn that no longer existed and disappeared somewhere, and asked with his lips slightly pursed: "If you are serious about fighting me. With your Based on my judgment, how many odds do I have?"

"No. Not even one floor."

Although the answer hurts a bit, Oliver has no psychological pressure. Winning and losing are sometimes very complicated things. If you dare not win, you are doomed to fail.

Dare to fight, everything is still unknown.

"Then, if at the current distance, I hold a bow and arrow 15 meters away, and I'm prepared, how long will it take you to kill me?"

Glancing over there, Lynn knew that, as a super powerful archer, Oliver was confident that he could defeat 99% of the world's people in close quarters without using a bow and arrow.

This is the source of his strong self-confidence.

However, Lynn's answer was still so concise: "It doesn't take a second for me to stand in front of you from here.

like this. "

Lynn disappeared in place abruptly, and stood in front of Oliver with a whoosh, pressing down with his bare hands, and pressed Oliver's raised blocking hand on his shoulder.

"This is also one second. So, about two seconds."

Still not discouraged, Oliver asked the next question: "Lynn, in the outside world, are there many existences like you?"

This time, Lynn didn't give an affirmative answer, but thought for a while before shaking his head: "It shouldn't be much.

But, there must be someone who is better than me, much better than me, there is more than one person. "

Lin En stretched out his hand and made a forward punch movement, with an expression of not-so-good memories on his face, he said in shock: "You know he will throw such a punch, you prepare in advance, you cross your arms , you stand ready.

And just like that, he punched it out.

Ah... I was sent flying more than 200 meters, and I could only get out of bed and walk around after lying down for several days.

Tsk, fortunately this person is a friend. "

Lynn said it very "vividly", and even the movement of rubbing his wrists seemed like a real bone was broken.

Oliver was finally a little surprised. He couldn't imagine that a master like Lynn would be unable to catch someone's punch when he was prepared? !

He also couldn't imagine that someone was beaten to fly more than 200 meters and survived, and it would be better to just lie down for a few days? !
"The outside world...how did it become like this..."

In a daze, Oliver's hand touched his own bow and arrow.

So, the hesitation in my heart disappeared immediately.

No matter what you do, do what you have to do, and do your best.

In this world, everything doesn't go smoothly.

………………

After the thought was clear, Oliver seemed to have suddenly unloaded some burden, no longer "closer to the hometown", and began to hesitate whether he could reintegrate into the human society he had lost for two years.He picked up the only arrow with an arrow that Lin En gave him back, and said to Lin En enthusiastically: "Your speed is very fast, this advantage is even stronger than your advantage in strength."

Lifting the arrow, Oliver smiled and said, "Can you catch my arrow, are you faster than it?"

"Hey~~! Of course! I can catch bullets!"

Oliver pointed to a small piece of rotten wood washed up by the sea in the distance, drew his bow and set his arrows, and aimed at that piece of wood.

"Get ready. Now!"

The bow is like a thunderbolt!

However, Lin En seemed to have turned into a puff of smoke in an instant, as if he had already appeared in that place from the beginning, and he firmly grasped the arrow.

"I am convinced, you are really scary."

Oliver smiled and shook his head. At least, he saw another skill of Lynn.

And Lin En, who used both acceleration skills at the same time, felt that this was really not a difficult task.It might be a bit mysterious to catch the bullet. It's too small, but it has too much power. However, Lin En believes that after upgrading his skills, it shouldn't be a problem.

Grabbing the arrow, he walked over slowly and returned it to Oliver. Lynn originally thought that he might have given the child a hard blow, but he definitely underestimated the firmness of his mind.

Oliver was completely unaffected.

So Lynn decided to try again.

"In your opinion, I run very fast, but there is a person, at that time just now, the arrow flew from you to me, this time is enough for him to come over from there and draw a little bastard on your head , and then ran back to catch the arrow."

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Lynn smiled and patted Oliver on the shoulder: "Don't worry, you will have a chance to meet him in the future.

I'll tell you secretly, if you want your arrows to hit him...

Shoot him in the back! "

back?

Oliver couldn't understand it.

If it's a sneak attack, it doesn't matter where you shoot it. If it's not a sneak attack, then that person can run faster than an arrow, so he won't be able to hit it anyway.

"Ha ha ha ha ha! You will understand, you will understand, ah ha ha ha ha!"

Lynn smiled very happily. Oliver thought about it for a while, but he didn't understand it, so he could only keep it in his heart for the time being and solve it later.

"Lynn, what are you looking at?"

Lin En, who was laughing loudly, suddenly had a chain hammer in his hand for some reason, and was standing up funny, looking into a dark forest.

"Ah, nothing. What do you think I'm looking at?"

Oliver understood immediately.

It was one of his masters, the one who had turned against him because of the death of his companion.

slade.

One of the legendary mercenaries, after being injected with enhanced potions, has become a veritable human-turning Slade.

He also has a well-known name in the industry: Deathstroke.

"You are holding a broken branch and want to understand the grievances with him? Aren't you courting death?"

It's no wonder that Lynn was rude. The main reason is that Oliver's arrows were basically destroyed by Lynn, leaving only one with an arrowhead.

Compared with long-range shooting ability, Oliver has a unique talent, which should be sure to beat Slade.

But in this situation, there is a high probability that he can only fight in close combat, and with Deathstroke's personality, he will not use a gun if he has one.

The thing about fairness is to force the mercenary to abide by it. It is no different from letting him starve to death.

"Let me do it. I have admired this famous death knell for a long time."

Lynn put on his mask again, holding a hammer in his right hand and a pistol in his left.

"First strike is stronger!"

Bang!
"Ah this..."

There was a burst of blue smoke from Lynn's muzzle, and there was a bloody hole in Lynn's shoulder.

"...I just said that this thing will kill me sooner or later... I took it wrong..."

In the next second, gunshots erupted in the dense forest.

Deathstroke, too, was shot.
