Comic: Becoming a Phantom Thief to Steal Hearts
Chapter 159 Maze in the City
Thousands of miles away from Gotham, the Justice League is located on a small island in the Pacific.
The existence of the Dark Universe has been spread through the Justice League. Although the public is skeptical about it, there are still many supporters out of trust in the Justice League.
Such a measure originally hoped that the people would not suffer unreasonable disasters without knowing anything, but unexpectedly it yielded an unexpected gain. There are still people in this world who claim to know more about the dark universe.
The person who guided the Justice League here is named Kendra Sandals, who claims to be a member of the Anti-Doomsday Squad.
"Someone led this enemy's full-scale invasion. I wanted to remind you, but I didn't expect that you noticed the omen first." Kendra said lightly.
"This place is not on any map." Batman observed the island's ecology, and compared it with the data in the Batcomputer, he discovered many unrecorded animals and plants.
"There are some places on the earth that exist outside of normal laws, that is, special things such as physical rules and magic that do not belong to this universe. Because they are not in line with common sense, unique creatures will be produced." Kendra explained, "These include Paradise Island, Dinosaur Island, and the Black Hawk Island beneath your feet."
Superman looked at the woman who suddenly appeared, "You claimed to know about the Dark Universe, and that's why we came here."
"Yes, because I have a vital piece of information here, that is our only hope." Kendra said seriously.
There once was a great adventurer named Carter. He worked hard to study a substance called N metal and explore the secrets behind it.
"Carter once held a piece of pure N metal. According to his research, N metal has inexplicable energy and can subvert all our known science and the laws of all things." Kendra looked at all the traces left by Carter on the island. , his eyes flashed slightly, "It is incompatible with this world and is a product from outside the world."
After speaking, Kendra took out the map of the universe, which actually showed all the parallel universes.
"There are currently 52 known universes, but I have been searching for many years and still can't find the origin of N metal, unless..."
Kendra turned over the map, and a completely black screen appeared.
"The Dark Multiverse."
Kendra looked directly at the members of the Justice League, "So, I'm curious how you learned about the Dark Universe."
"You have to ask Batman about that." Green Lantern sold Batman without hesitation.
"I have my intelligence source." Of course, it is impossible for Batman to push Lucas out and use him as a target.
Superman, who also learned this, flashed his blue eyes, but finally said nothing.
Wonder Woman, one of the Big Three, glanced across the two men, crossed her chest and narrowed her eyes.
"Well, everyone has their own secrets, but I hope you can understand the seriousness of the matter." Kendra looked at the most powerful group of heroes in the world and did not pursue the question any further.
Kendra showed the Justice League the ancient tomes she had collected over the years, running her fingers over the obscure ancient writings in the documents.
Fifty thousand years ago, there were three great nomadic tribes on the earth. They were wolves, bears, and eagles. They shared a common desire for peace, but the balance of the three tribes was destroyed until the emergence of the fourth tribe. .
"Does the logo of this tribe look familiar..." Shazam muttered while looking at the ancient book, his eyes subconsciously wandering, and finally stopped in front of Batman's chest.
"Huh? Bat?"
"...With the emergence of the fourth tribe, the age of metal has also ushered in, and the person who leads the way to the outside world and the black dragon named Barbatos is...Batman."
As soon as Kendra finished speaking, the person next to her also raised his gun and pointed it at Batman.
At this time in Gotham City, Damian was patrolling Gotham alone.
Dick had been in Gotham for too long and had returned to Blüdhaven before. Jason also didn't stay in Wayne Manor. Damian himself didn't deal with Tim, so he didn't want to act with him, and Lu Cass does not participate in night patrols at night. During the time when Batman leaves Gotham, Damian completes daily patrols by himself.
He stood on a high place, looking down at the city that belonged to his father and also his own city.
Regarding the matter of the Dark Universe, Batman obviously does not want his children to get involved, but Damian is not the kind of good boy who will obey Batman's temper.
A few days ago, the center of Gotham City was suddenly submerged by a mountain. Fortunately, most of the people who left Gotham City because of the crisis have not returned yet, and there were no major casualties.
"I didn't expect to encounter such a thing in Gotham these days." Harry looked at the inexplicable mountain in the distance and couldn't help but sigh.
"Indeed, but the streets are even more deserted." Mindy looked at the deserted streets and said with some regret.
"It feels...weird," Raven said.
"But, there should still be someone inside, right? I want to go and have a look." Peter said worriedly.
"But Lucas told us not to go there." Gwen said disapprovingly.
"Don't worry, I'm Spider-Man." Peter said, patting his chest.
At the same time, Lucas said the same thing to Tim, "That mountain that suddenly appeared makes me feel weird."
Tim, who said he wouldn't stay up late a few days ago, had black eyes again, and he was full of resentment, "Which bastard is causing trouble again!"
After finally handling the matters at hand, he thought he could relax for a few days and recharge his batteries to deal with the next crisis. Unexpectedly, the sudden appearance of a mountain in the city directly broke Tim's original plan.
Although it was common for plans to be disrupted, Tim still hated this feeling.
"Tim?"
Tim rubbed his hair irritably, "I finally made a plan to attract the population back! Originally, the building was not damaged, but now...ahhhhh!"
"Uh..." Lucas stretched out his hand hesitantly, but in the end he didn't want to disturb Tim who was about to explode.
Lucas flew out of Wayne Manor, found the one he cared about among the thousands of heartbeats, and flew there without hesitation.
"Why are you here?" Damian looked up at Lucas who flew to his side, "Aren't you going to accompany the foreigners who came to Gotham?"
Foreigner? Lucas looked at Damian with strange eyes. How could Damian, who grew up in the League of Assassins, have the right to call Peter and the others foreigners? However, Lucas would not be with Damian in such a critical moment. Mian buttoned the words.
"I've told them to stay away from that way," Lucas said.
Damian hummed softly, and there was no emotion on his expressionless face. Such Damian made Lucas feel a little dazed.
"What are you thinking about?" Damian glanced at Lucas strangely.
"Nothing." Lucas shook his head and looked at the rising mountain with Damian.
"I want to go there," Damian said.
"But, I feel something is wrong." Lucas frowned and said, "Besides, Batman is not in Gotham yet, so it's best not to act rashly."
"I can't wait any longer." Damian said directly, "If you don't have this plan, don't stop me."
How could Lucas let Damian investigate this matter alone? Although the Damian in his own world looks short due to being transformed, he is actually very cautious and thoughtful in doing things, but the Damian in this world En is not like this, he just comes up with everything he thinks. Lucas will never let Damian act alone like this.
"Don't you want to know what happened?" Facing the hesitant Lucas, Damian said, "Or are you actually afraid?"
Lucas was not irritated by this kind of provocation, but Damian was right, he really wanted to know what happened.
"I'm not scared," Lucas said. "If I'm just exploring the situation, it's not impossible."
With Lucas' help, Damian doesn't have to work hard to get close with a grapple gun by himself, but can experience the speed of a supercar.
But when Lucas and Damian broke through the clouds, what appeared in front of them was a huge maze made of Gotham.
"This is..." Lucas rubbed his eyes subconsciously. The stacked city buildings and the undulations of the mountains overlapped in front of his eyes. It was almost difficult to distinguish the reality, just like... the quantum entanglement described in science fiction works. The scene, could this be why he felt strange.
Damian was very surprised when he saw the surprising scene in front of him, but he quickly calmed down. This was their city. Instead of wasting time on being surprised, it was better to take action immediately.
At this moment, Damian received a strange signal from the satellite system.
"This is probably a distress signal." Damian looked serious. Even though Lucas was holding the creaking nest and flying in the air, he was still not as steady as a mountain and was thinking to himself.
"We should go back," Lucas said.
"No." Damian said coldly, "I have to investigate what all this is about. If you want to be a good boy, do it yourself."
"Why are you so impatient?" Lucas asked in confusion. Damian now felt like he was anxious to do something.
Damian raised his head, "I would like to ask you, why are you still sitting peacefully in Wayne Manor?"
Ever since he knew that the enemies of the dark universe could attack at any time, and that there was a god as a backer behind them, Damian had fallen into a certain anxiety.
"You're in a bad mood." Lucas didn't answer directly, but sighed.
"I didn't lose my temper." Damian emphasized with a stinky face, "Only the weak need meaningless emotional catharsis."
But you are losing your temper right now... Lucas thought helplessly.
In fact, Damian's mood is easy to understand. After all, they have to face a too powerful enemy. But the difference is that Lucas has long been mentally prepared and is ready to die in battle for this.
The still immature Damian also knew clearly that no one would die, but after leaving the Assassin's League, he no longer wanted to see anyone die in front of him, even... that annoying guy Drake.
Unable to accept it, self-torture.
Likewise, is Damian really unaware of Lucas’ psychology?
"Put me down!" he ordered.
Lucas looked down at the boy's green eyes shining with stubbornness behind the mask, and said resignedly, "Okay, I'll stay with you."
When the two came to the source of the signal, they saw a door with a green question mark painted on it.
"The Riddler..." Damian narrowed his eyes.
"There are still fish that slipped through the net." Lucas said.
He has indeed repented several super villains with his own hands, and the Riddler is undoubtedly on the same level as Two-Face and the others. Since he can still come out to cause trouble, it means that he has not been repented. It seems that the collapse of the palace will only give some Repent, little bastard.
Lucas pushed open the door, and inside was a huge maze with upside-down space.
"I want to see what tricks the Riddler is up to." Damian stepped into it.
"Wait, we can't be separated in a place like this." As soon as Lucas entered the maze, his extraordinary senses suddenly fell silent.
"My super hearing and super vision..." Lucas frowned and tentatively clenched his fists. Fortunately, the super power was still there.
Even if he loses his clairvoyance and clairvoyance, it is not something that Lucas cannot accept. He has lived as an ordinary person for so long, so there is nothing he can't adapt to.
Lucas took a few steps to Damian's side and walked inside side by side with him.
"Have you ever heard of Amenemhat II?" The Riddler's voice suddenly came from all directions in the maze.
"The Riddler? Stop pretending! Show up!" Damian snapped.
The Riddler ignored Damian's words and continued, "Amenemhat built a pyramid with countless labyrinths, rooms and courtyards. This pyramid is very good at stopping tomb robbers. I am the ruler of this labyrinth. , and you, you are just tomb robbers wandering around here."
"If you have the ability, just show up in front of me!"
No...it will definitely not happen. Lucas has a blind eye. Young Damian can be so naive and impulsive. It would be absolutely impossible for his Damian to be like this, and he might not even enter this suspicious maze.
Fortunately, Damian, who was jumping up and down in anger, did a good job of attracting the Riddler's attention.
"Haha, I'm fighting you, and this maze will become my most powerful weapon."
A large amount of blood and water poured from the corridor, and behind it was a deadly trap.
Lucas grabbed Damian's cloak and flew into the air.
Looking at the sharp spikes shining coldly underneath, Lucas' face sank.
Damian's expression remained unchanged, his fingers tapping rhythmically on Lucas' arm.
Did you find anything?
