Gotham Dark Godfather

Chapter 384 The mantis stalks the cicada (Thanks to @Masterhai for tipping this book)

Zhou Hao was stunned when he heard this, and immediately recalled that at the dinner party, the Penguin once threw the knife in a rage. If Deathstroke hadn't stopped him, he would have almost smashed the Scarface puppet into pieces.If he were the one to throw it, he could definitely do better than the fat man and destroy the puppet Scarface before Deathstroke intercepted it.

"Do you think that if you destroy that puppet, Scarface will cease to exist?" Zhou Hao asked calmly.

"Absolutely. Ever since this guy became famous, rumors about the origin of Scarface have been circulating everywhere in the world. It's very mysterious." Riddler Nima said conclusively: "And it's just destroying a puppet, not hurting the old man. Presumably Deathstroke won’t do much either.”

Hearing this, Zhou Hao couldn't help but feel curious. As a time traveler, he naturally knew all the information about the villains, but it was quite surprising to hear these characters explore their origins for the first time, so he waited for the Riddler to continue.Thank you Naodong Emperor No. [-]

"Legend has it that there was a gallows in Blackgate Prison where countless prisoners were executed. One day it was struck by lightning. The fragments were used to make a doll. The doll remained in the prison until this man named Arnold Wesco After the incompetent old man was falsely accused and imprisoned, he possessed this guy and became the scarface he is now." Riddler Nimag's mysterious gossip:

"Otherwise this cannot explain why an old man with no bad record turned into a super villain who is proficient in crime and ruthless after acquiring this puppet. Maybe the personality can be split, but the criminal mind and skills cannot be Obtained without experience, the only explanation is that the weird puppet accumulated the will of the prisoners who died in Blackgate Prison for 200 years, and was reborn in this old man."

After listening to the Riddler's story, Zhou Hao was noncommittal, but he still sighed and added:

"Perhaps, but just destroying the puppets will not make Scarface disappear. Sometimes the thing that is truly possessed is not the skull mask made of coffins, nor the puppets carved from the gallows, but the human heart. "

The reason why I say this is because Zhou Hao knows very well that the ventriloquist old man has been able to simulate the presence of Scarface with just a pair of socks on several occasions without a puppet, and even the left and right hands can be simulated. A gunfight, and finally a plot in which he was killed.Therefore, Zhou Hao does not believe like Batman that the ventriloquist old man is just a puppet controlled by Scarface.

But now is not the time to talk about this. Gotham must restore stability in three days. For this reason, Zhou Hao even took action personally to completely suppress the riot.Therefore, he also had to make preparations for what would happen in three days.

"Gotham's Got Talent has been suspended for a long time. Although it was announced that it had to be suspended for safety reasons due to the deterioration of public security in Gotham. However, the contracts of advertisers, phone companies, etc. must still be fulfilled, otherwise money will be lost every day. It all hurts, and we must recover as soon as possible." Zhou Hao said seriously while looking at the book.

He and the Riddler and his team were heading towards ABC Broadcasting Company, ready to say hello to the contestants who had passed the preliminary round and start working on the next plan.After all, Zhou Hao's assets have shrunk severely recently, and he urgently needs an influx of new financial resources to maintain a balance in his books. That's why he rushed to his own properties to take care of things after saying hello to the gangsters.

"Oh, are you rushing to the TV station in such a hurry just to say hello?" The Riddler said with a faint smile, and at the same time there was a hint of a sinister smile on his face: "Isn't it just to have a good talk with a certain girl, and spend the month before? Would you like to be romantic?"

Hearing this, Zhou Hao looked up to the sky and sighed that he had accidentally made friends secretly.He and Poison Ivy had some misunderstandings at the birthday party. Now that so much time has passed, messages have been communicated through intermediaries, and the slight unhappiness between them has long since disappeared.At this moment, Zhou Hao couldn't find Witch Cirsi to testify for him. He could only prepare a gift like every man and go to coax the girl.

The reason why he went to the radio and television station today was for this purpose.It would be better to clarify what the two people said before the war started than to continue to be embarrassed like this.

Just as Zhou Hao and his party were heading towards the place where Poison Ivy lived, there was a group of people not far away observing Zhou Hao's motorcade.

"In recent days, this young magician has been looking for my whereabouts. I have to say that he almost succeeded several times. I really don't know what kind of tracking spell he has learned. It is better than all the wizards in the past. "

Witch Circe stood in her barrier and said angrily.

She has been hiding here and there these days. In a rage, Zhou Hao wanted to catch her out and explain his innocence, so he put all his efforts into hunting her down.For this reason, they didn't even have time to worry about the war between Scarface and Penguin. With the help of the great prophecy of occasional aura, Witch Circe was almost caught by Zhou Hao.

Hearing the witch's complaints, Constantine on the side scratched his head in embarrassment, thinking that these were caused by the mirror imaging technique he taught Zhou Hao, so he naturally did not dare to tell the truth at the moment.I could only hide it by laughing a few times.

"This is not a long-term solution. What do you have in mind? Just tell me quickly how to defeat this extremely talented mage." Witch Circe glared at Zha Kang impatiently and scolded angrily.

Hearing others praise Zhou Hao as a genius mage, Constantine felt very uncomfortable, but he didn't show it at all on his face. He rolled his eyes and had his own idea.

"Although I doubt your claim that Zhou Hao has a huge magic reserve, but... the battle between mages does not just rely on waving wands and chanting spells. There are too many opportunities to catch them unprepared. For example, if there is a lot of magic power, Being a mage does not mean that you have strong mental power, and a mage with good mental power does not mean that you are good at summoning, so..." Constantine was a master of black magic after all, and he pointed out a way in an instant.

Witch Circe herself is at the level of a god, and she has lived for so many years. After listening to Zha Kang's on-demand broadcast, she immediately realized the meaning of this guy's words.

"Yes, it's not easy to win in a head-on confrontation. I can compete with Zhou Hao in another way. It must be that for a mage who has practiced magic so hard, his mental power cannot be strengthened at the same time. It must be the biggest flaw. Hahaha, as long as I seize this weakness to attack, I can still I’m worried that I can’t bring the Amazon princess back.”

Thinking of this, Witch Circe laughed wildly, turned into a ball of black smoke, and headed towards Zhou Hao's motorcade.
