&ep;&ep;In a dilapidated church in Gotham, the death knell with his helmet removed was lying on the cold floor. His gray hair and wrinkles on his face showed that this man was in his fifties or sixties. What should have been a kind face looked a bit ferocious under an eyepatch.

&ep;&ep; "Slade Joseph Wilson" Wu Yizhi sat in a chair and looked at the death knell information on the tablet computer that Barbara had given him before. As a time traveler who has traveled through a world, in his previous life As a half American comic fan, Wu Yizhi's memory of American comics is somewhat vague. He only remembers some relatively well-known organizations and villains, such as the Justice League, Darkseid, and Deathstroke in his memory. There is only an impression of a comic book shape and the name Deathstroke.

&ep;&ep; "So there is still a nickname for the Terminator?" He kept looking up the information about Deathstroke. He was indeed a ruthless person who had defeated Batman and even dared to provoke the Justice League including Superman and Wonder Woman. Looking at the murders and achievements committed by Deathstroke, Wu Yizhi couldn't help but sigh, "But understanding this should be enough. After all, the time to discuss persuasion with the old bat is limited."

&ep;&ep; After saying that, he slapped Deathstroke directly on the face. The huge force caused a bright red slap mark to appear on Deathstroke’s face. For this mercenary who stole his own cells, Wu Yizhi said: He didn't have any good feelings at all. If the old bat hadn't told him repeatedly not to hurt his life, and he did have a plan that needed to be cooperated, he would have chopped him off long ago.

&ep;&ep; With a groan of "Uh", Deathstroke turned over and woke up. The burning pain on his face almost instantly reminded him of his previous experience. Before his mind could react, the instinct of a mercenary who had experienced many battles He immediately rolled away from the figure next to him subconsciously, drew his weapon and hid behind the church's podium.

&ep;&ep;Wu Yizhi watched his movements but did not stop him. After the death knell was hidden, he said, "Slade, have you had enough? You should have remembered what happened before." While walking towards the podium where the death knell was hidden, "Are you still unwilling? Want to play another round? You should know that I did not take away your weapons, so if you want to play again, I will accompany you."

&ep;&ep; "No need." Deathstroke, who recalled everything before, stood up from his hiding place and stared at the Chinese young man in front of him with his only one eye. "Who are you? What do you want?" The previous battle made him know that the gap between the two sides was huge. Even if he had a weapon, he had no chance of winning. Now, since he did not kill him, but brought him to this secret place, it meant what he wanted to get from himself. .

&ep;&ep; "Wu Yizhi, I'm just an ordinary person passing by. As for what I want to do, I just want to give you a deal."

&ep;&ep;“What deal?”

&ep;&ep;"Tell me who gave you the latest body-enhancing potion and the creator behind it, the mastermind of this attack."

&ep;&ep; Deathstroke’s face darkened, “Then what can I get?”

&ep;&ep;Wu Yizhi listens? Suddenly he chuckled, "Haha, what can you get? Why bother asking?" His face darkened as he said, "Of course it's your life."

&ep;&ep; Deathstroke pondered for a moment and said, "I don't know who is the mastermind behind this attack. He was contacted through an intermediary, and the potion was the advance payment for this attack."

&ep;&ep; "Then find out for me," Wu Yizhi replied directly and domineeringly, "find out who hired you, how much medicine is left, and who has it. As a reward, I can cure your eye."

&ep;&ep; He immediately offered up a very tempting condition for Deathstroke. Anyway, Wu Yizhi was not afraid of his rejection. He dared to refuse and directly extracted his soul to read the memory. The reason why he did not kill Deathstroke and had to interrogate him was that he had guessed that Deathstroke would not do it. If you know the mastermind behind it and where the potion came from, then just ask Deathstroke to find it. After all, Wu Yizhi is a very lazy person. Why would he do it himself when he can let others do it for him? Just save a little bit of energy.

&ep;&ep;“Can you cure my eyes?” Deathstroke is still a little unbelievable. After all, he has been blind for more than ten years.

&ep;&ep;Wu Yizhi sneered when he heard this, "Do you have any choice?"

&ep;&ep;“Okay, I promise you”

&ep;&ep;Somewhat unexpectedly, Deathstroke actually agreed to this deal without any guarantee. From the information Wu Yizhi saw, Deathstroke should be a tough guy. He didn't expect to agree to this seemingly easy deal. Such a strong request.

&ep;&ep;But what they don’t know is that Wu Yizhi’s body has evolved once after merging with the swamp monster. When he stabbed his neck to draw blood, the wood escape stimulated the six cells in Deathstroke’s body to divide rapidly. , gradually infected other cells, which was also the reason for Deathstroke's coma. During the period of coma, the 6 cells that were quickly infected not only strengthened Deathstroke's physical strength again, but also turned him into a body similar to the child of the divine tree. existence, and the child body will have an instinctive feeling of closeness to the upper body. When there is little conflict with its own interests, it will generally tend to and identify with the mother body's proposal, so it is also the death knell that faces the fusion after waking up. The main reason why Wu Yizhi, who knew the true form of the sacred tree, could quickly agree to the request.

&ep;&ep;"Oh? How long do you need?"

&ep;&ep;Wu Yizhi doesn't think too much now. It's a good thing that someone is willing to run errands.

&ep;&ep;"One month at most. I will notify you when I find out the news."

&ep;&ep; "Okay, if you find out the information, go to Wayne Manor and find me. When you get to Wayne Manor, ask Wu Yizhi and they will notify me."

&ep;&ep;In the silent Wayne Manor at night, Barbara, with one arm slung by a bandage, and Bruce, who had changed into casual clothes, were sitting in the living room waiting for Wu Yizhi, who had gone out to inquire for information, to return.

&ep;&ep; "I wonder what's going on with Dick?" Barbara, who was pacing back and forth in the living room, couldn't help but say something as if to break the silence.

&ep;&ep; "Dick's side is fine. I just received news that it was a group of killers from the Assassin's League who attacked. They have been repelled now, but the base's defense facilities have been severely damaged. As the captain, Dick has to stay there to take charge of the overall situation. , In addition, you should sit down and take a rest, you were injured just now."

&ep;&ep; "So this attack is specifically targeting us?" Barbara did not respond to Batman's concern, but asked another question.

&ep;&ep; "To be precise, it was specifically targeted at me," Bruce corrected. "The attack Titan transferred Dick back, strengthened Thalia to block other vigilantes who might come to help, and then used the enhanced Deathstroke to target me. But this time they didn’t expect that you would be the main player this time and I would be the backup.”

&ep;&ep;“Actually, it’s not right to say it’s directed at you.” Wu Yizhi entered from outside the living room and interrupted the conversation between the two.

&ep;&ep;“You just said that Thalia’s power seems to have been strengthened?”

&ep;&ep; "Yes," Bruce nodded and confirmed, "Her power is far greater than the last time we fought. She must have been strengthened with potions."

&ep;&ep; "So this time is not a killing round specifically for you, but a testing round. Killing you is just incidental." Wu Yizhi walked to the sofa and sat down, his face uncharacteristically serious. "If it were me, and I wanted to kill Batman, Then just one death knell is not enough, I will send a group of killers who have taken potion to consume your physical strength first, and then use the death knell to kill you with one blow."

&ep;&ep;After Wu Yizhi's reminder, Bruce suddenly remembered something, "By the way, Dick also said before that the attacking killer's physical strength is far beyond the previous level, which is why the Teen Titans have to deal with it so hard."

&ep;&ep;Bruce raised his head and glanced at Wu Yizhi, "In that case, the potion should have been mass-produced. This time, we are testing the results to see the growth rate of ordinary people who have taken the potion and the death knell, which has been strengthened. Warrior's Amplification"

"Then what do you want to do?" Barbara glanced at Wu Yizhi worriedly, picked up the wine that had been placed on the table, poured a glass of wine for Wu Yizhi, and handed it to him. This move surprised Bruce. He glanced at Barbara.

&ep;&ep; "Let's find out the mastermind first. I've asked Deathstroke to investigate." When Wu Yizhi grabbed the wine glass, it happened to cover Barbara's hand that had no time to withdraw. Barbara was so scared that she pulled her hand back hard and did He glanced at Bruce like a thief.

&ep;&ep; "Ho?" Bruce was attracted by the fact that Wu Yizhi just threw out, and did not notice the small interaction between the two. He frowned and asked, "In my memory, Deathstroke is not such an easy person to talk to."

&ep;&ep; "It depends on who you are facing, doesn't it?" Wu Yizhi deliberately showed an enigmatic smile. Although he didn't know why the death knell agreed to his request, but people compete for a breath and a stick of incense, why? You can't lose your temper in front of Batman either.

&ep;&ep;“So what you’re saying is that Deathstroke doesn’t know who the mastermind behind it is?”

&ep;&ep;"Yes, he contacted the middleman. He didn't know the person behind the scenes, so I asked him to find out within a month."

&ep;&ep;Wu Yizhi spoke in an understatement that made the other two people present unbelievable. According to Deathstroke’s past personality and intelligence, most of the time Deathstroke would not be respectful to his employer even if he accepted an order. Wu Yizhi’s tone seemed to be Did you ask Deathstroke to do it in a commanding tone? What happened during the hours they went to negotiate?

&ep;&ep;“So what do we do now?”

&ep;&ep; "Now?" Wu Yizhi glanced at the silent Bruce, "Of course I'm going to sleep." He finished the glass of wine in one breath, and was about to go back to the house with more than half the bottle of wine left, but was stopped by Bruce. Stop shouting

&ep;&ep;"Wait a minute"

&ep;&ep;Wu Yizhi turned around in surprise, "What's wrong?"

&ep;&ep;Bruce pointed to Barbara who was hanging her arm, "You'd better treat her injuries first. It's hard for her to go home with injuries and explain to Director Gordon."

&ep;&ep;Wu Yizhi seemed to be very surprised and asked, "Why do you want to treat her?"

&ep;&ep;“Because you drank all my $6 worth of wine in the past half month.”

&ep;&ep;Looking at the frowning Bruce, Wu Yizhi laughed, "You may have misunderstood what I meant. I mean, I have already cured her, why do I need to treat her again?"

&ep;&ep; As soon as Bruce said this, he turned to look at Barbara who was also surprised. Barbara subconsciously moved her fingers and found that the pain had completely disappeared. She quickly untied the bandage and moved her fingers. It's like he's never been hurt.

&ep;&ep;“When?”

&ep;&ep;Ignoring Bruce's question, Wu Yizhi spread his hands and said, "Then I'll go back to bed." After saying that, he made a pretentious bow, turned around and walked out of the living room.

&ep;&ep;It couldn’t be that some kind of treatment was used when the wine was poured, Barbara thought as she held her palms.

&ep;&ep; "What do you think of him?" Bruce asked Barbara as he watched Wu Yizhi leave his sight.

&ep;&ep; "Huh? Him? Oh?" ​​Barbara was startled when she was interrupted by the question, and stuttered, "He, is he okay?"

&ep;&ep;“What I’m asking is, what kind of person do you think he is and whether you think he is trustworthy?”

&ep;&ep;“Oh,” Barbara thought for a while, “He’s a pretty good person, he shouldn’t be the kind of bad guy who commits crimes.”

&ep;&ep; "Then have you found out what other abilities he has in the past few days? How specific can he be?"

&ep;&ep; "No," Barbara said with some frustration, "Sometimes he feels like a little brother who just went to college, but when asked about topics related to abilities, he deliberately diverts his attention. Even if you don’t want me to know, even the ability to summon plants was only known after seeing it today.”

&ep;&ep;"Well, I understand." Bruce nodded to express understanding.
