Kayla stared at Alfred. She had never imagined that Alfred was the legendary agent who kept the roster and turned East Coast intelligence agents around.

"But, from the UK to Moscow, shouldn't it be necessary to go through the east coast of the United States?" Kayla asked with some doubts.

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

"But, even if you want to detour, you don't have to go this far, right? From the UK to the east coast of the United States, to the Soviet Union, it's almost a circle around the earth..."

"Until now, 30 years later, the world is still looking for this list, haven't you discovered how important it really is?"

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

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

Alfred took out a piece of deerskin from his pocket and began to wipe the barrel of the shotgun in his hand. within."

"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 headed straight to America??"

Alfred smiled, as if he was feeling Kayla's youth, he said: "The most dangerous place is the safest place, this sentence actually has some truth, but it cannot be a decisive factor in an important decision. ."

"In 1961, Alan Dulles, the CIA's longest-serving director, stepped down, a very powerful old guy, and the CIA's prestige at home and abroad jumped to its peak."

"However, after 1961, his successor was not as powerful as him. A year later, the work was almost ineffective. It took him a long time to sort out the work left by the previous director. Even the people dubbed him a stupefied young man from the Air Force, and of course Moscow knew it."

"Also, during Allen's tenure, the CIA's functions expanded significantly, and even replaced some of the functions of Congress. He did a job so well that the CIA's prestige and reputation grew too high."

"So, Congress will definitely restrict them, right?" Kayla asked, and then she said with some disdain: "This is the way these Americans are, and the infighting never ends."

"Yes, they deliberately found an incompetent successor to take Allen's seat, made a mess of the job, and then amended the security law to further limit the scope of the CIA's functions, in short, the central government of that period. Intelligence Bureau..."

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

If according to what Alfred said, the situation at the time was like this, then the United States was indeed a very safe place. In order to limit the functions of the CIA, even if Congress knew that a spy might have come here, they would not would allow the CIA to intervene.

What Americans do best is to create an agency, create another agency to restrict it, and then create another agency to restrict both of them, and then call them the separation of powers.

Whenever the three institutions beat each other's brains out, they call it a "victory of democracy."

And when more organizations hit the dog's brain for this reason, they would not care about the decreased efficiency, and the absurd accident of the left foot tripping the right foot and the left hand blocking the right hand, they would only think that their monitoring mechanism was really too successful .

"Also, Gotham has always been a place outside the law. Although the Falcone family had ruled Gotham at that time, the system of the Twelve Clan had not been fully established, or at that time was the period of reformation. , there are gangsters everywhere, which is very suitable for fishing in troubled waters.”

"Indeed, this is a very clever method. As long as you lurk in Gotham for a while, and Moscow releases news that the list has reached them, then the safety of your return journey will be greatly improved." Kayla nodded and said.

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

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

Alfred sighed infrequently, and seemed to have thought of something he didn't want to recall. He said: "In Gotham City, there has always been a unique force hidden. They wear masks, hide in the dark, Watching everyone, trying to take over the city."

"They're called the Court of Owls."

"It was a group of lunatics who would do anything for power and status. Just one day in March, when I was going to church to pray, I 'accidentally' heard the words of Falcone, the godfather of Gotham, and Daniel, the bishop of Gotham Cathedral at the time. dialogue……"

Kayla heard Alfred bite the accent on the word "accidental" and she understood that Alfred was implying that he had been paying attention to these two people and was investigating them, so she heard some information.

"They say that the Court of Owls has obtained a magical egg, which seems to be intended to be placed in a special pool under the cathedral..."

"Eggs? Eggs of what?" Kayla asked in confusion.

Alfred took a deep breath and said:

"A monster's egg."

"What is this? A monster's egg?"

At the bottom of the manor, in a wide hall, Lex looked at the thing in the center of the hall with some doubts and asked.

At this time, all the members of the underground exploration team were in a strange state. There was a wisp of gray fog around Bruce and Lex, and they could see the wisp of gray fog themselves, but they didn't raise any objection. Bruce helped him. Clark, who was pale, was still coughing weakly.

After a few people came down from the entrance of the cellar, 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 abnormality is not very obvious. It looks like a bunker built by a medieval nobleman. Appear.

But after walking down this hallway, Clark felt strange, because he began to feel weak.

At the end of the hallway, Lex and Bruce tried to persuade Clark to turn away, but Clark insisted that the mineral would not harm ordinary people, so they continued inside.

Soon, Yingying's green light appeared. At this time, Schiller stopped everyone and said, "Are you planning to go directly?"

"I have to remind you that this mineral also radiates radiation to ordinary people, and, unlike the radiation of any mineral on the earth, human radiation protection 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 this risk, but they were curious about it.

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

Schiller made a long note, and then suddenly said: "I heard that the Wayne Group and the Luther Group are the economic lifeline of the Middle East coast and the mainstay of the American economy."

Bruce was a little dazed, not knowing why Schiller suddenly mentioned this, but Lex suddenly understood, he said kindly:

"A method that can defend against unknown mineral radiation is worth a thousand dollars. Of course, the Luther Group is willing to pay some price for this technology, Professor, we can discuss the specific numbers later, but we will never disappoint you..."

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

When did Schiller become interested in money? ? ?

Did he take the wrong medicine? ? ? ?

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

With a wave of Schiller's hand, two strands of gray mist surrounded the two of them. It was obvious to the naked eye that the green light was blocked, and the effect seemed to be very obvious.

Clark immediately turned his head to Schiller and looked at Schiller with an expectant look, but Schiller walked straight in as if he didn't see his eyes.

Clark tried to catch up and said, "Oh! Professor, is there any misunderstanding between us?"

"Professor! I think I need some defenses too! Professor..."

"It doesn't work for you." Schiller rejected him indifferently. Clark showed a frustrated expression and could only follow behind a few people.

Going inside, the situation began to get serious. They first entered a hall. The walls around here are almost all built with that kind of green stone. No lamps are needed, and the light from kryptonite is enough to illuminate. A whole hall, you can see how huge the number is.

When he got here, Clark was almost unable to walk by himself, and he had to be supported by Bruce, but looking at Schiller's innocent attitude, Bruce and Lex knew that they had been fooled again.

But until now, the function of this mineral itself is not important, the important thing is, who built this place? What was it built for?

Obviously, the rumors are wrong, because Bruce did not find any experimental equipment here, whether it is radiation experiments or human radiation experiments ~www.NovelMTL.com~ requires a lot of professional equipment, but there is no such thing here.

Passing through the hall, and then walking through a corridor, I came to a huge underground cavity, and the scene here was shocking.

In the huge underground cavity, most of the walls have not been artificially repaired. They are still ordinary rock formations, and even dripping water, but there are many rammed walls, like wedges that have been cut in, from top to bottom. distributed throughout the void.

Everywhere there are walls, there is a very quirky contraption with a giant green kryptonite at the center.

At this time, the light of these kryptonites seems to be guided by the glass outer wall of the device, forming a solid green beam, several beams intersect, and focus on a point, and at this point, a platform is placed in the air, on which there is a egg.

This egg is very large, and several people need to look up at it. The overall color is gray, but the overall color is gray. There are many rock-like spikes on the surface, and the tips of the spikes are still emitting a blue shimmer.

Just when Lex asked that question in confusion, they heard Schiller's cold voice coming from behind: "All stand back."

Bruce turned back and looked at Schiller, who was standing far away. Seeing Schiller's expression, he knew that Schiller probably knew what this was. He asked, "What kind of egg is this?"

"A monster..."

"What monster?"

"A very terrifying monster that even Clark can't deal with in his prime..."

Schiller's eyes kept falling on the egg, his low tone echoed in the hollow, and there was a distant echo:

"It's called... Doomsday."
