Chapter 179 Summoning and Gods
The inside of the Arkham Asylum is a complete mess. The clown wants to make trouble, but due to the pain in his egg and an inexplicable pregnant belly, it is difficult for him to move now, and he will suffer double the pain if he moves a little more.
No one can bear this, not to mention being pregnant, the clown is also a man, the pain of a broken egg is simply terrible.
So he turned off the fire, at least until the pain completely disappeared, the clown couldn't do things as unscrupulously as before.
But if he doesn't do something, there are always other people who will do it. There are many talents in Arkham Asylum, not only the Joker, Two-Face, Harley Quinn, and Poison Ivy. They turned off, and there are others can replace them.
For example, the Riddler, this guy seems a little restless recently.
But no matter how restless the Riddler is now, he must leave Arkham Asylum first if he wants to do something, so for a while, he can't do anything for the time being.
But once he has this idea, there will be a move to prepare for the escape, so in order to leave this damn lunatic asylum, the Riddler once again unites with the Penguin to prepare for a wave of things.
Of course, this matter will not affect Sherlock outside anyway, after all, the messenger is busy raising cubs now.
Oh, of course, he wasn't here to take care of it. Even Sherlock himself is a brat who hasn't grown up yet and needs others to take care of him.
For Sherlock himself, things like children are simply an annoyance, not only will his space be stuffed with a bunch of messy things, but it will also affect the beautiful cohabitation life between him and John.
At least after the little cub was sent to him by Bruce Wayne, the focus of John's life changed completely.
It is said that children are the biggest obstacle affecting the relationship between husband and wife, which is absolutely true.
Especially when Sherlock himself is a bear child, for John, he needs to take care of two children.
One is honest and well-behaved, and the other is mischievous.
According to the normal situation, Sherlock should belong to the former, but the reality is different from the guess. In fact, Sherlock belongs to the latter. This guy seems to be the same as this little little bean. Except at the beginning, because the figure of this little Douding is completely out of proportion to the human body, and the state that does not conform to the normal state of his age, I have been interested in studying it for a while.
After he found out that this small group was not something he could study, and he didn't find any messy problems, this was the beginning of all the chaos.
Almost all of John's attention was attracted by this little bean, which made Sherlock feel a little uncomfortable.
But this is the little one that Mycroft strictly required him to bring with him. Even in order to let Sherlock keep this little one, Mycroft said bluntly that if he took this little one with him, then he would He could continue to stay in the city of Gotham and study his so-called case. If he didn't want to take it with him, then he would immediately send someone over to arrest him and bring him back to England.
This statement is absolutely true, Sherlock can tell that Mycroft's arrival is true, if he really does not bring this little Douding, his brother, the big devil, will definitely send someone to capture him back to England, This kind of extremely annoying thing.
So Sherlock gives in, Sherlock agrees, but Sherlock is angry at the same time.
He felt really disliked about John and the insertion of an unrelated person into his life, and the feeling made him want to put on a few nicotine tablets to calm down.
It's a pity that there are no nicotine tablets. John has banned such things since he moved in. Although John has a good temper, he will never back down on this matter. If Sherlock really secretly hid nicotine tablets, then he Definitely weather John's storm.
It's terrible for a good-tempered person to get angry. Sherlock has felt this before returning from suspended animation. At that time, John was so angry that he wanted to pin him to the ground directly. show mercy.
Cough, the topic is getting a little far, but after all, Sherlock really doesn't like this little bean clinging to John.
It's a pity that things have become a foregone conclusion, even if Sherlock doesn't like it, there is nothing he can do.
But at least by keeping this little bean ding, he can steadily pursue the clues of his case, which is somewhat good news.
……
Aside from Sherlock's side, there are other things going on on Batman's side.
In fact, apart from the fact that Loki and the alien army are preparing to invade the earth, Batman is also studying some things about Brudhaven recently.
Well, research under Dick's unsolicited mention.
After all, because of what the clown did to Jason, Dick somewhat began to have some new understanding of the relationship between family members, although he still expressed anger at some of Bruce's actions, and he and Bruce couldn't say three words together to get together. It quarreled, but he was finally willing to communicate with Bruce now, even if the communication was not peaceful.
Of course, this kind of uneasy communication does not hinder the research between them.
In fact, what they are studying now has been quite a while, and this happened before the last time they traveled to the parallel universe and went to the world of Injustice.
This incident was the incident at the abandoned factory last time, and it was the first time that Jason and Dick had formally met Little Kirk's shell.
The two people, Ma Mingming, are friendly forces, but there was a lot of unpleasant friction at the moment of meeting, so that later Dick and Jason conducted a very detailed research, exploration and tracing of Little Kirk's shell.
But nothing was found.
Although this matter was later shuttled through a parallel universe, the matter of the shell was exposed to everyone by Kirk's own peers, and the existence of that inexplicably dangerous person [J] was also explained and explained. Explain, but this matter is not over yet.
After all, although Little Kirk had never mentioned the existence of the shell, he had never concealed it, but they were obsessed with the authorities, and the onlookers were not clear, so they didn't recognize it.
Looking back now, what Little Kirk said to them was absolutely true.
If there are no inaccuracies or mistakes in the intelligence, then there is actually something wrong with the abandoned factory itself.
After all, apart from the unexpected factor of throwing out the cub's shell, there is a strange atmosphere everywhere in the factory, and it is not easy for Little Kirk to clean up the scene by himself.
And the most important question is, why does Little Kirk do this.
Regardless of whether this little cub is the body or the shell, my motives are very obvious, and basically all of them are related to the father or the temporary guardian. If it has nothing to do with these two people, then no matter how important it is, This little dumpling will not choose to do it either.
But at that time Bruce was still in Gotham, and although Jason was in Bludhaven, he was very safe. He was a newcomer, even if he did come to investigate these weird things, but Little Kirk was completely unnecessary. There was no one who could take the lead before Jason was in danger.
It's not in line with his code of conduct.
Not to mention that before that, Zai Zai and Jason were still sleeping happily. According to the character of this little dumpling, he would never give up, or waste such precious time.
Then the question arises, why did this little dumpling appear in the factory?And why did you choose to clean up the scene afterwards?
Batman asked Little Kirk about this matter, and the answer he got was that he felt someone calling him in his sleep.
Female, this is the identity of Xiao Zai Zai, others may not know it, but Batman is absolutely clear - with the self-description of Kirk Wayne in the parallel world, and the narration of those spiritual tentacles, Bruce knows this because of an accident. The born son is a very different form belonging to the gods in this world.
Of course, it's not that kind of good god—you can see this just from the blueprint of this little dumpling's birth shell.
If you have to describe it, then this little dumpling is probably in the chaotic neutral camp and the evil camp, but the whole family is in the positive camp, so it can barely be regarded as a positive character, not a super villain .
But no matter how he behaves to the outside world, his essence will not change. This is the origin of the gods, and there is no way to change it.
Then to be able to summon such an existence, I want to know that the other party's purpose is not pure.
And most importantly, why Kirk was summoned and not something else is a pretty important question.
Especially now that Gotham is about to move around in the dark, and the mummy case that originally happened in Bludhaven is gradually showing its clues in Gotham, it is very necessary to figure out this matter.
After all, as the candidate who should be summoned, Little Kirk has been very quiet and well-behaved recently, and he didn't feel anything strange.
……
This matter is very wrong. Considering how capable and fond of troubles the people of Gotham are, this matter must be explored clearly.
Otherwise, it was Little Kirk this time, and if they want to make a big deal next time, it may not be certain who will be recruited.
Especially the fact that those mummies appeared in Gotham alone can't make Batman sit still.
……
For people from a certain sect who came to Gotham from Bludhaven, their situation can be said to be quite bad.
Since the last time it was hit hard in Bludhaven, the number of this sect has dropped sharply.
The members of the first batch didn't know what kind of evil they were. In the police station in Bludhaven, they were particularly obsessed with a little policeman with no name.
That kind of obsession has even reached the point of fanaticism, as if possessed by an evil spirit.
But after all, these are developed by ordinary people. For this sect, they are consumable resources, and they can even be regarded as tributes. It is not distressed if one or two die, and at most there will be some troubles if a large group dies.
The problem is, among those who have gone wrong is a man in the hood.
Those who were sent to the police station were all ordinary people—that is, those who existed as tributes. Generally, their role was to be used for the conditions when the magic circle was opened, and it could be said to exist like a mobile blood bank.
But the man in the hood is different. The man in the hood is quite special. He is different from other people. He is specially selected and has a strong obsession.
——This hooded man wants to live forever, and he wants to live for a very long time, and he himself has the experience of learning magic, which makes him very familiar with the magic circle.
It can be said that it is very difficult to get such a person with obsession and magic attainment.
After all, as we all know, most mages in this world have their own organizations, and they usually don't interfere with the outside world at all. They usually guard the earth silently.
Moreover, the mage's internal problems are generally resolved by the mage himself. If there are traitors or other things in the middle, they will send additional people to prevent this matter from interfering with reality.
In addition, there are some scattered magicians, but these are not easy to find at all.
People who can exist as scattered mages must be very powerful, and the most important thing is that although they do not have their own organization, they must have friendship with other organizations.
This is like Constantine and Zatanna.
It can be said that in this situation, it is not easy to find a person who is obsessed with magic and is willing to cooperate with them on adventures.
After all, this matter is very unreliable to say, and the gods who can use blood as an introduction and need to sacrifice human life as the reason for summoning know that it is not a good thing.
In all likelihood, after the summoning is over, it is not certain whether one's life will survive.
Especially the summoning array, it is said to be a summoning array, but the effect of the summoning is unknown. For the gods, the people they summoned may just be a way to wake themselves up in reality. It depends on the mood.
These are things that mages will understand after seeing the magic circle.
Therefore, it is really not easy for them to join their plan.
But the problem also arises here. Generally, people who have ideas and obsessions and want to join this plan are mostly people who do whatever it takes to achieve their goals, and people who are willing to take risks for it.
These people have a common characteristic, that is, their obsession is too deep and sometimes their actions are too careless.
They tend to jump at opportunities like crazy and use them regardless of the consequences.
For example, the man in the hood belongs to this type.
Adrian told the hooded man not to act rashly before, mainly because he was worried that the hooded man might ruin their plan because of his deep obsession.
Unexpectedly, the plan was really destroyed in the end. The gods that were finally summoned disappeared quietly into this world overnight.
After killing How Hard, the rest of the crowd all went crazy and became obsessed with an ordinary policeman in Bludhaven.
To be honest, after finding out that these men have a deep obsession with dick, and crazy obsession.
Adrian actually doubted at the beginning whether Dick was the god he summoned, or whether he was possessed by that god.
But no matter how he looked at him, he was just an ordinary person, an ordinary social animal, and there was nothing wrong with him other than being a little charismatic, and the most important thing was that this guy had traces to follow, he was from next door to Brudhaven Gotham is a member of the Gotham Wayne family.
If Bruce Wayne is just an average rich guy, it wouldn't be a big deal for his son to want to investigate a little bit.
The problem is that Bruce Wayne is quite rich and has a close relationship with the Justice League and Batman. If Adrian really didn't have a good eye to investigate Dick, Batman would find out the problem , that's the real trouble.
But this was just his initial thought, and now that things have come to this point, it's no longer a question of whether he wants to do it, or doesn't want to do it.
As I said before, if you want to take the risk to summon this mysterious person, you all have obsessions. The hooded man has obsessions, and of course Adrian also has obsessions.
This kind of obsession gradually deepened with the success of the summoning, until now he could not restrain it, so he stretched out his hand to Gotham, wanting to take a risk.
Some kind of special intuition told him that the god might be in Gotham.
After all, there are really not many people with mental problems in Gotham recently, although they are all lunatics in Arkham Asylum.
But there is also a saying that says that a lunatic is often the person who can get closest to the truth.
They are only crazy because they have seen a deeper existence.
Not to mention that these lunatics had traces of their insanity before, but now they suddenly changed their way of insanity.
Even according to gossip, those claws that follow Batman have a rather special ability.
It can make people feel pain, but it doesn't actually cause physical harm.
The pain was inescapable, it seemed to be deeply rooted in the spirit.
That's why Adrian was genuinely skeptical.
So for this he shifted his position and came to Gotham.
In this person's mind, he felt that Batman's sharp claws must have been influenced by the gods, so he could obtain that ability.
But what he never expected was that those sharp claws were not influenced by the gods, but actually the gods themselves.
……
After sensing the familiar feeling of calling, Little Kirk did not respond rashly like last time.
He quickly separated a strand of his mental power, quickly glued it to the shell, and then manipulated the shell to push Jason who was sleeping.
Since what happened with the clown last time, Jason has treated little Kirk better. If it was just an ordinary pet before, it is now an extra pet.
The relationship between these two is simply unbelievable.
And because Little Kirk's shell was attacked by a crowbar for Jason, Jason has been extra careful with those shells for a while.
This was probably a subconscious move. After all, everyone in the Wayne family knew that these shells would not be really injured at all. They just needed to be placed in the mental incubator for a little repair and they would return to normal.
But that doesn't mean Jason doesn't feel bad.
After all, he is his favorite brother.
So after Xiaotuanzi pushed him awake, Jason quickly opened his eyes and sat up from the bed.
As expected, there were several small balls lying under the quilt, their flesh was soft, and they were obviously addicted to dreams.
Jason rubbed the head of the one in his arms, then turned to look at Little Kirk who was still sleeping soundly.
He didn't really understand what happened. After all, according to common sense, although Kezi was very close to him, little Kirk would never forget his own body.
It seems that the main body is sleeping, but the shell is already awake, which has never happened before.
Jason instinctively sensed something was wrong.
"Did something happen?" Jason asked seriously, rubbing the little one in his arms.
"Someone is calling." The soft milk dumpling said so.
This sentence is really short, but the amount of information revealed is huge.
Jason was a little taken aback, but he quickly realized what the little group was talking about.
He got up quickly, then hugged the little one in his arms, then hurriedly opened the door of the bedroom and walked towards Bruce's bedroom.
As Batman, Bruce, who has been up for several nights without sleep after the end of the night watch, is taking a rare rest.
But he is destined to not sleep well tonight.
The door of the bedroom was opened quickly, causing little movement, but it was enough to startle Bruce on the bed.
It wasn't the sound of Alfred pushing the door, and it was obviously not yet dawn at this time, so it was hard to say who the people outside were.
But before Bruce could make any warnings and disguises, the visitor revealed his identity.
The soft, sleeping little Kirk was held in Jason's arms, and the other shells followed behind Jason. After entering the bedroom, their eyes lit up quickly, and they scurried towards Bruce. on the bed.
Bruce, who was overwhelmed by the dumpling, finally couldn't pretend to be asleep this time.
He yawned and opened his eyes tiredly.
Then he picked it up casually, hugged a small dumpling next to him in his arms, rubbed his head, and finally set his sights on Jason.
Little Kirk would never make such an abrupt move, let alone disturb his father at night when he was sleeping. I also know that this incident probably has something to do with Jason.
And the thing that made Jason push the door without saying hello at night was obviously not a trivial matter.
"Did something happen?" Bruce asked, with a vague feeling of not waking up in his words.
Considering the seriousness of the matter, Jason didn't mean to dawdle: "Zai Zai said he felt the call."
Bruce's pupils instantly darkened.
If he is Batman at this time, then he has probably checked the little Kirk in Jason's arms, and learned about the summoning situation directly from the shell's feedback.
But he is only Bruce Wayne at this time, and Batman is completely two people, so at this time he can only pretend to be shocked, and then let Jason take the cub back to his bedroom first, and at the same time promise to contact Batman quickly .
……
Contacting myself, this matter is probably only Batman can do.
But the whole process didn't take long, after all, the Batcave was right below the Wayne Manor, and Bruce's own bedroom had a passage leading to the Batcave.
Quickly going to the Batcave and changing clothes to come up again was just a matter of a split second, without stopping for a moment, Bruce, who had changed his clothes, quickly found Kirk.
The location of the summoning was set at an abandoned factory in Gotham, probably because the bosses have a soft spot for this kind of factory, anyway, no matter if it is a clown or someone else doing things, they all like to find In this kind of place.
For Adrian, the location is not important, what matters is whether his behavior can succeed this time.
His behavior this time can be regarded as very risky. After all, in his guess, the gods have a close relationship with Batman, and they are likely to be the ones who endowed the claws with those abilities.
This may sound inexplicable, but Adrian felt that he had guessed correctly—everything indicated that the gods were in Gotham, and the strange people who appeared in Gotham recently only have sharp claws, which is enough to prove something .
Although I don't know how Batman got in touch with this god, and how he made these sharp claws, but the obvious situation is here, that is, the god and Batman probably had contact.
Under such circumstances, it is very irrational to rashly use the summoning array to summon the gods. After all, Gotham belongs to Batman's territory. Attention and investigation, what's more, it may even cause the total collapse of the plan.
Adrian's obsession is too strong, and he can't wait for the gods.
This seems to be completely different from the previous situation where he made the hooded man restrain himself a little.
But this is normal. After all, the summoning array had been tried too many times at that time, but nothing was summoned. It can be said that the behavior of the man in the hood is very likely to be a reckless behavior with no results.
After all, this summoning array is just a summoning array, and it cannot be guaranteed to be effective until anything is summoned.
The current situation is different. Now that the gods respond to this summoning array, it proves that this summoning is really useful. He can summon gods. In this case, anyone with obsessions can't stand this.
After waiting for several days, Adrian finally decided to take a risk after touching a trace of the god.
He chose this abandoned factory as the location, spent a lot of time scouting the surrounding environment, and drew a summoning circle here.
Of course, he didn’t just do this during this period of time. You must know that if the summoning array wants to summon successfully, sacrifices are needed. The soul of a living person is the best sacrifice. Adrian doesn’t want to die, he obviously can’t To be this sacrifice by himself, even if he is willing, the number of people is not enough.
So during this period of time, Adrian began to develop his power in Gotham, using various methods to win over some messy candidates, and successfully developed them into candidates for sacrifice.
These things were all carried out quietly. In order to achieve his goal at one time, Adrian made a lot of preparations, and those mummies in Gotham were the result of his preparations.
Then, with everything in place, Adrian began his final project one night before dawn, around the time Batman's Night Watch was rumored to end.
He thought his plan was very hidden, but what Adrian didn't expect at all was that, because of the particularity of his identity as a god, as long as he started summoning, he was destined to be unable to cover up his actions at this time, and his The plan, his thoughts, even his position, what he is currently doing, will be known to Batman.
Who told him that the god he wanted to summon was Batman's son?
……
As more and more people fell on the magic circle, the feeling of calling became stronger and stronger.
As a summoned person, Little Kirk could feel the gradual increase of that kind of summoning power. Although it depends on his own will whether to go or not, it is undeniable that this kind of summoning power itself means something to him. With a kind of temptation.
After all, this kind of magic circle is indeed something that summons him. It is a kind of ancient magic circle. It can be said that it is very rare that it can be passed down to the present. Because most people don't know the symbols, it can be said that there are very few people in the world who can use this magic circle.
However, by coincidence, someone got this magic circle and got the way to open it.
The summoning was in progress. Since this opportunity was rare, Batman didn't waste any time. After quickly getting the little group to cooperate and explain some information, he let the little one respond to the summoning.
This is not harmful to this little dumpling. Batman confirmed this with Kirk Wayne in the parallel universe. For little Kirk, what needs to be paid attention to is not to take back his spirit The force tentacles, other than that, nothing would have an additional effect on him, not even summoning.
It can be said that I have been summoned once, and I am completely familiar with it the second time. If it is not because I need to switch the shell to communicate with Batman outside, report my situation and current location, I am afraid that this little guy will arrive. The speed of the summoned location will be faster.
"So you mean it might be because of magic?" In an apartment in Gotham, Sherlock and John were not idle at this time.
It was rare for Sherlock to stay up here all night without going to sleep, but he just stared at the computer so energetically, staring intently at a message inside.
John felt very tired seeing Sherlock like this.
As an assistant, it is impossible for John to let Sherlock mess around here alone. After all, Sherlock simply does not play cards according to common sense. .
It would be okay if he was in the UK, after all, he was protected by his brother, but this is Gotham, a notorious city, and it is not safe in broad daylight, let alone at night.
As an assistant, John also stayed with him all night here.
And the result of staying up all night is this - magic.
"Sherlock, I mean... I don't mean to question your meaning, I mean, is your conjecture a little... abrupt." John looked at Sherlock, mainly because he couldn't understand how he would put this Things involved magic.
After all, the UK where this incident happened, there are a lot of people on the magic side in this world, but most of them happened in the United States, and the daily messy things like alien invasions all happened in the free land of the United States.
The UK is not without magic testing, but they are relatively conservative and mysterious. The initial location of their case is in the UK. It is outrageous that the clues themselves point to Gotham. Obviously they say it is magic...
John thought it was a little more complicated.
You must know that Sherlock is not a person who gives up halfway. If he is interested in this case, he must solve it. If this matter has something to do with magic, then it will be dangerous.
Sherlock will never give up halfway because of this, besides, he has always been interested in magic.
Sherlock stared at the computer: "It's not surprising John, look at these dead people - I'm sure these are magical effects." His fingers tapped on the keyboard, and suddenly his eyes narrowed slightly, revealing He made a clear expression: "It seems that their action is tonight."
John was almost unresponsive by Sherlock's sudden words.
"What?" He was a little dazed, but Sherlock found that Sherlock suddenly closed the computer and stood up, then quickly disappeared in front of his eyes, and when he reappeared, he was almost fully dressed.
"It's time to act, John, this is a good opportunity." Sherlock straightened his clothes quickly - the new discovery made him look very refreshed, not at all drowsy and sleepy after staying up all night. The feeling of being sucked out.
At this moment, he was in exceptionally good spirits, as if he was about to go out to do something in the next second.
Oh no, maybe not as if, but as it is, because Sherlock is now fully dressed, even his hat.
"Don't tell me you plan to go out now, Sherlock, it's night, and this is Gotham." How could John fail to see what Sherlock meant, he was almost pissed off by this brat.
To put it bluntly, the cubs sleeping in the bedroom are more well-behaved and sensible than him.
This is not England, this is Gotham, wandering around Gotham at night with no power to restrain the chicken, and obviously going to a dangerous place, Sherlock is simply—
"Let's go?" Sherlock didn't look back.
John: "... Let's go." What if you don't go, Sherlock has realized that it is impossible to stay at home honestly, and it is absolutely impossible for John to let this guy run alone.
As Sherlock's assistant, he has been to dangerous places many times anyway, who made him run into the uneasy Sherlock?
But the cub in the bedroom... John looked back at the bedroom, only to find that the door had been opened a crack.
A little cub opened the door at some point, and was looking at the two people on his side through the gap at this time. After being discovered, he obviously had no fear of being caught, so he was so open-minded. He pushed the door open.
"You guys have to go out." Xiaotuanzi said childishly, "Take me with you." After a pause, he added, "Otherwise, none of you will even think about leaving."
The author has something to say:
Three in one~
No one can bear this, not to mention being pregnant, the clown is also a man, the pain of a broken egg is simply terrible.
So he turned off the fire, at least until the pain completely disappeared, the clown couldn't do things as unscrupulously as before.
But if he doesn't do something, there are always other people who will do it. There are many talents in Arkham Asylum, not only the Joker, Two-Face, Harley Quinn, and Poison Ivy. They turned off, and there are others can replace them.
For example, the Riddler, this guy seems a little restless recently.
But no matter how restless the Riddler is now, he must leave Arkham Asylum first if he wants to do something, so for a while, he can't do anything for the time being.
But once he has this idea, there will be a move to prepare for the escape, so in order to leave this damn lunatic asylum, the Riddler once again unites with the Penguin to prepare for a wave of things.
Of course, this matter will not affect Sherlock outside anyway, after all, the messenger is busy raising cubs now.
Oh, of course, he wasn't here to take care of it. Even Sherlock himself is a brat who hasn't grown up yet and needs others to take care of him.
For Sherlock himself, things like children are simply an annoyance, not only will his space be stuffed with a bunch of messy things, but it will also affect the beautiful cohabitation life between him and John.
At least after the little cub was sent to him by Bruce Wayne, the focus of John's life changed completely.
It is said that children are the biggest obstacle affecting the relationship between husband and wife, which is absolutely true.
Especially when Sherlock himself is a bear child, for John, he needs to take care of two children.
One is honest and well-behaved, and the other is mischievous.
According to the normal situation, Sherlock should belong to the former, but the reality is different from the guess. In fact, Sherlock belongs to the latter. This guy seems to be the same as this little little bean. Except at the beginning, because the figure of this little Douding is completely out of proportion to the human body, and the state that does not conform to the normal state of his age, I have been interested in studying it for a while.
After he found out that this small group was not something he could study, and he didn't find any messy problems, this was the beginning of all the chaos.
Almost all of John's attention was attracted by this little bean, which made Sherlock feel a little uncomfortable.
But this is the little one that Mycroft strictly required him to bring with him. Even in order to let Sherlock keep this little one, Mycroft said bluntly that if he took this little one with him, then he would He could continue to stay in the city of Gotham and study his so-called case. If he didn't want to take it with him, then he would immediately send someone over to arrest him and bring him back to England.
This statement is absolutely true, Sherlock can tell that Mycroft's arrival is true, if he really does not bring this little Douding, his brother, the big devil, will definitely send someone to capture him back to England, This kind of extremely annoying thing.
So Sherlock gives in, Sherlock agrees, but Sherlock is angry at the same time.
He felt really disliked about John and the insertion of an unrelated person into his life, and the feeling made him want to put on a few nicotine tablets to calm down.
It's a pity that there are no nicotine tablets. John has banned such things since he moved in. Although John has a good temper, he will never back down on this matter. If Sherlock really secretly hid nicotine tablets, then he Definitely weather John's storm.
It's terrible for a good-tempered person to get angry. Sherlock has felt this before returning from suspended animation. At that time, John was so angry that he wanted to pin him to the ground directly. show mercy.
Cough, the topic is getting a little far, but after all, Sherlock really doesn't like this little bean clinging to John.
It's a pity that things have become a foregone conclusion, even if Sherlock doesn't like it, there is nothing he can do.
But at least by keeping this little bean ding, he can steadily pursue the clues of his case, which is somewhat good news.
……
Aside from Sherlock's side, there are other things going on on Batman's side.
In fact, apart from the fact that Loki and the alien army are preparing to invade the earth, Batman is also studying some things about Brudhaven recently.
Well, research under Dick's unsolicited mention.
After all, because of what the clown did to Jason, Dick somewhat began to have some new understanding of the relationship between family members, although he still expressed anger at some of Bruce's actions, and he and Bruce couldn't say three words together to get together. It quarreled, but he was finally willing to communicate with Bruce now, even if the communication was not peaceful.
Of course, this kind of uneasy communication does not hinder the research between them.
In fact, what they are studying now has been quite a while, and this happened before the last time they traveled to the parallel universe and went to the world of Injustice.
This incident was the incident at the abandoned factory last time, and it was the first time that Jason and Dick had formally met Little Kirk's shell.
The two people, Ma Mingming, are friendly forces, but there was a lot of unpleasant friction at the moment of meeting, so that later Dick and Jason conducted a very detailed research, exploration and tracing of Little Kirk's shell.
But nothing was found.
Although this matter was later shuttled through a parallel universe, the matter of the shell was exposed to everyone by Kirk's own peers, and the existence of that inexplicably dangerous person [J] was also explained and explained. Explain, but this matter is not over yet.
After all, although Little Kirk had never mentioned the existence of the shell, he had never concealed it, but they were obsessed with the authorities, and the onlookers were not clear, so they didn't recognize it.
Looking back now, what Little Kirk said to them was absolutely true.
If there are no inaccuracies or mistakes in the intelligence, then there is actually something wrong with the abandoned factory itself.
After all, apart from the unexpected factor of throwing out the cub's shell, there is a strange atmosphere everywhere in the factory, and it is not easy for Little Kirk to clean up the scene by himself.
And the most important question is, why does Little Kirk do this.
Regardless of whether this little cub is the body or the shell, my motives are very obvious, and basically all of them are related to the father or the temporary guardian. If it has nothing to do with these two people, then no matter how important it is, This little dumpling will not choose to do it either.
But at that time Bruce was still in Gotham, and although Jason was in Bludhaven, he was very safe. He was a newcomer, even if he did come to investigate these weird things, but Little Kirk was completely unnecessary. There was no one who could take the lead before Jason was in danger.
It's not in line with his code of conduct.
Not to mention that before that, Zai Zai and Jason were still sleeping happily. According to the character of this little dumpling, he would never give up, or waste such precious time.
Then the question arises, why did this little dumpling appear in the factory?And why did you choose to clean up the scene afterwards?
Batman asked Little Kirk about this matter, and the answer he got was that he felt someone calling him in his sleep.
Female, this is the identity of Xiao Zai Zai, others may not know it, but Batman is absolutely clear - with the self-description of Kirk Wayne in the parallel world, and the narration of those spiritual tentacles, Bruce knows this because of an accident. The born son is a very different form belonging to the gods in this world.
Of course, it's not that kind of good god—you can see this just from the blueprint of this little dumpling's birth shell.
If you have to describe it, then this little dumpling is probably in the chaotic neutral camp and the evil camp, but the whole family is in the positive camp, so it can barely be regarded as a positive character, not a super villain .
But no matter how he behaves to the outside world, his essence will not change. This is the origin of the gods, and there is no way to change it.
Then to be able to summon such an existence, I want to know that the other party's purpose is not pure.
And most importantly, why Kirk was summoned and not something else is a pretty important question.
Especially now that Gotham is about to move around in the dark, and the mummy case that originally happened in Bludhaven is gradually showing its clues in Gotham, it is very necessary to figure out this matter.
After all, as the candidate who should be summoned, Little Kirk has been very quiet and well-behaved recently, and he didn't feel anything strange.
……
This matter is very wrong. Considering how capable and fond of troubles the people of Gotham are, this matter must be explored clearly.
Otherwise, it was Little Kirk this time, and if they want to make a big deal next time, it may not be certain who will be recruited.
Especially the fact that those mummies appeared in Gotham alone can't make Batman sit still.
……
For people from a certain sect who came to Gotham from Bludhaven, their situation can be said to be quite bad.
Since the last time it was hit hard in Bludhaven, the number of this sect has dropped sharply.
The members of the first batch didn't know what kind of evil they were. In the police station in Bludhaven, they were particularly obsessed with a little policeman with no name.
That kind of obsession has even reached the point of fanaticism, as if possessed by an evil spirit.
But after all, these are developed by ordinary people. For this sect, they are consumable resources, and they can even be regarded as tributes. It is not distressed if one or two die, and at most there will be some troubles if a large group dies.
The problem is, among those who have gone wrong is a man in the hood.
Those who were sent to the police station were all ordinary people—that is, those who existed as tributes. Generally, their role was to be used for the conditions when the magic circle was opened, and it could be said to exist like a mobile blood bank.
But the man in the hood is different. The man in the hood is quite special. He is different from other people. He is specially selected and has a strong obsession.
——This hooded man wants to live forever, and he wants to live for a very long time, and he himself has the experience of learning magic, which makes him very familiar with the magic circle.
It can be said that it is very difficult to get such a person with obsession and magic attainment.
After all, as we all know, most mages in this world have their own organizations, and they usually don't interfere with the outside world at all. They usually guard the earth silently.
Moreover, the mage's internal problems are generally resolved by the mage himself. If there are traitors or other things in the middle, they will send additional people to prevent this matter from interfering with reality.
In addition, there are some scattered magicians, but these are not easy to find at all.
People who can exist as scattered mages must be very powerful, and the most important thing is that although they do not have their own organization, they must have friendship with other organizations.
This is like Constantine and Zatanna.
It can be said that in this situation, it is not easy to find a person who is obsessed with magic and is willing to cooperate with them on adventures.
After all, this matter is very unreliable to say, and the gods who can use blood as an introduction and need to sacrifice human life as the reason for summoning know that it is not a good thing.
In all likelihood, after the summoning is over, it is not certain whether one's life will survive.
Especially the summoning array, it is said to be a summoning array, but the effect of the summoning is unknown. For the gods, the people they summoned may just be a way to wake themselves up in reality. It depends on the mood.
These are things that mages will understand after seeing the magic circle.
Therefore, it is really not easy for them to join their plan.
But the problem also arises here. Generally, people who have ideas and obsessions and want to join this plan are mostly people who do whatever it takes to achieve their goals, and people who are willing to take risks for it.
These people have a common characteristic, that is, their obsession is too deep and sometimes their actions are too careless.
They tend to jump at opportunities like crazy and use them regardless of the consequences.
For example, the man in the hood belongs to this type.
Adrian told the hooded man not to act rashly before, mainly because he was worried that the hooded man might ruin their plan because of his deep obsession.
Unexpectedly, the plan was really destroyed in the end. The gods that were finally summoned disappeared quietly into this world overnight.
After killing How Hard, the rest of the crowd all went crazy and became obsessed with an ordinary policeman in Bludhaven.
To be honest, after finding out that these men have a deep obsession with dick, and crazy obsession.
Adrian actually doubted at the beginning whether Dick was the god he summoned, or whether he was possessed by that god.
But no matter how he looked at him, he was just an ordinary person, an ordinary social animal, and there was nothing wrong with him other than being a little charismatic, and the most important thing was that this guy had traces to follow, he was from next door to Brudhaven Gotham is a member of the Gotham Wayne family.
If Bruce Wayne is just an average rich guy, it wouldn't be a big deal for his son to want to investigate a little bit.
The problem is that Bruce Wayne is quite rich and has a close relationship with the Justice League and Batman. If Adrian really didn't have a good eye to investigate Dick, Batman would find out the problem , that's the real trouble.
But this was just his initial thought, and now that things have come to this point, it's no longer a question of whether he wants to do it, or doesn't want to do it.
As I said before, if you want to take the risk to summon this mysterious person, you all have obsessions. The hooded man has obsessions, and of course Adrian also has obsessions.
This kind of obsession gradually deepened with the success of the summoning, until now he could not restrain it, so he stretched out his hand to Gotham, wanting to take a risk.
Some kind of special intuition told him that the god might be in Gotham.
After all, there are really not many people with mental problems in Gotham recently, although they are all lunatics in Arkham Asylum.
But there is also a saying that says that a lunatic is often the person who can get closest to the truth.
They are only crazy because they have seen a deeper existence.
Not to mention that these lunatics had traces of their insanity before, but now they suddenly changed their way of insanity.
Even according to gossip, those claws that follow Batman have a rather special ability.
It can make people feel pain, but it doesn't actually cause physical harm.
The pain was inescapable, it seemed to be deeply rooted in the spirit.
That's why Adrian was genuinely skeptical.
So for this he shifted his position and came to Gotham.
In this person's mind, he felt that Batman's sharp claws must have been influenced by the gods, so he could obtain that ability.
But what he never expected was that those sharp claws were not influenced by the gods, but actually the gods themselves.
……
After sensing the familiar feeling of calling, Little Kirk did not respond rashly like last time.
He quickly separated a strand of his mental power, quickly glued it to the shell, and then manipulated the shell to push Jason who was sleeping.
Since what happened with the clown last time, Jason has treated little Kirk better. If it was just an ordinary pet before, it is now an extra pet.
The relationship between these two is simply unbelievable.
And because Little Kirk's shell was attacked by a crowbar for Jason, Jason has been extra careful with those shells for a while.
This was probably a subconscious move. After all, everyone in the Wayne family knew that these shells would not be really injured at all. They just needed to be placed in the mental incubator for a little repair and they would return to normal.
But that doesn't mean Jason doesn't feel bad.
After all, he is his favorite brother.
So after Xiaotuanzi pushed him awake, Jason quickly opened his eyes and sat up from the bed.
As expected, there were several small balls lying under the quilt, their flesh was soft, and they were obviously addicted to dreams.
Jason rubbed the head of the one in his arms, then turned to look at Little Kirk who was still sleeping soundly.
He didn't really understand what happened. After all, according to common sense, although Kezi was very close to him, little Kirk would never forget his own body.
It seems that the main body is sleeping, but the shell is already awake, which has never happened before.
Jason instinctively sensed something was wrong.
"Did something happen?" Jason asked seriously, rubbing the little one in his arms.
"Someone is calling." The soft milk dumpling said so.
This sentence is really short, but the amount of information revealed is huge.
Jason was a little taken aback, but he quickly realized what the little group was talking about.
He got up quickly, then hugged the little one in his arms, then hurriedly opened the door of the bedroom and walked towards Bruce's bedroom.
As Batman, Bruce, who has been up for several nights without sleep after the end of the night watch, is taking a rare rest.
But he is destined to not sleep well tonight.
The door of the bedroom was opened quickly, causing little movement, but it was enough to startle Bruce on the bed.
It wasn't the sound of Alfred pushing the door, and it was obviously not yet dawn at this time, so it was hard to say who the people outside were.
But before Bruce could make any warnings and disguises, the visitor revealed his identity.
The soft, sleeping little Kirk was held in Jason's arms, and the other shells followed behind Jason. After entering the bedroom, their eyes lit up quickly, and they scurried towards Bruce. on the bed.
Bruce, who was overwhelmed by the dumpling, finally couldn't pretend to be asleep this time.
He yawned and opened his eyes tiredly.
Then he picked it up casually, hugged a small dumpling next to him in his arms, rubbed his head, and finally set his sights on Jason.
Little Kirk would never make such an abrupt move, let alone disturb his father at night when he was sleeping. I also know that this incident probably has something to do with Jason.
And the thing that made Jason push the door without saying hello at night was obviously not a trivial matter.
"Did something happen?" Bruce asked, with a vague feeling of not waking up in his words.
Considering the seriousness of the matter, Jason didn't mean to dawdle: "Zai Zai said he felt the call."
Bruce's pupils instantly darkened.
If he is Batman at this time, then he has probably checked the little Kirk in Jason's arms, and learned about the summoning situation directly from the shell's feedback.
But he is only Bruce Wayne at this time, and Batman is completely two people, so at this time he can only pretend to be shocked, and then let Jason take the cub back to his bedroom first, and at the same time promise to contact Batman quickly .
……
Contacting myself, this matter is probably only Batman can do.
But the whole process didn't take long, after all, the Batcave was right below the Wayne Manor, and Bruce's own bedroom had a passage leading to the Batcave.
Quickly going to the Batcave and changing clothes to come up again was just a matter of a split second, without stopping for a moment, Bruce, who had changed his clothes, quickly found Kirk.
The location of the summoning was set at an abandoned factory in Gotham, probably because the bosses have a soft spot for this kind of factory, anyway, no matter if it is a clown or someone else doing things, they all like to find In this kind of place.
For Adrian, the location is not important, what matters is whether his behavior can succeed this time.
His behavior this time can be regarded as very risky. After all, in his guess, the gods have a close relationship with Batman, and they are likely to be the ones who endowed the claws with those abilities.
This may sound inexplicable, but Adrian felt that he had guessed correctly—everything indicated that the gods were in Gotham, and the strange people who appeared in Gotham recently only have sharp claws, which is enough to prove something .
Although I don't know how Batman got in touch with this god, and how he made these sharp claws, but the obvious situation is here, that is, the god and Batman probably had contact.
Under such circumstances, it is very irrational to rashly use the summoning array to summon the gods. After all, Gotham belongs to Batman's territory. Attention and investigation, what's more, it may even cause the total collapse of the plan.
Adrian's obsession is too strong, and he can't wait for the gods.
This seems to be completely different from the previous situation where he made the hooded man restrain himself a little.
But this is normal. After all, the summoning array had been tried too many times at that time, but nothing was summoned. It can be said that the behavior of the man in the hood is very likely to be a reckless behavior with no results.
After all, this summoning array is just a summoning array, and it cannot be guaranteed to be effective until anything is summoned.
The current situation is different. Now that the gods respond to this summoning array, it proves that this summoning is really useful. He can summon gods. In this case, anyone with obsessions can't stand this.
After waiting for several days, Adrian finally decided to take a risk after touching a trace of the god.
He chose this abandoned factory as the location, spent a lot of time scouting the surrounding environment, and drew a summoning circle here.
Of course, he didn’t just do this during this period of time. You must know that if the summoning array wants to summon successfully, sacrifices are needed. The soul of a living person is the best sacrifice. Adrian doesn’t want to die, he obviously can’t To be this sacrifice by himself, even if he is willing, the number of people is not enough.
So during this period of time, Adrian began to develop his power in Gotham, using various methods to win over some messy candidates, and successfully developed them into candidates for sacrifice.
These things were all carried out quietly. In order to achieve his goal at one time, Adrian made a lot of preparations, and those mummies in Gotham were the result of his preparations.
Then, with everything in place, Adrian began his final project one night before dawn, around the time Batman's Night Watch was rumored to end.
He thought his plan was very hidden, but what Adrian didn't expect at all was that, because of the particularity of his identity as a god, as long as he started summoning, he was destined to be unable to cover up his actions at this time, and his The plan, his thoughts, even his position, what he is currently doing, will be known to Batman.
Who told him that the god he wanted to summon was Batman's son?
……
As more and more people fell on the magic circle, the feeling of calling became stronger and stronger.
As a summoned person, Little Kirk could feel the gradual increase of that kind of summoning power. Although it depends on his own will whether to go or not, it is undeniable that this kind of summoning power itself means something to him. With a kind of temptation.
After all, this kind of magic circle is indeed something that summons him. It is a kind of ancient magic circle. It can be said that it is very rare that it can be passed down to the present. Because most people don't know the symbols, it can be said that there are very few people in the world who can use this magic circle.
However, by coincidence, someone got this magic circle and got the way to open it.
The summoning was in progress. Since this opportunity was rare, Batman didn't waste any time. After quickly getting the little group to cooperate and explain some information, he let the little one respond to the summoning.
This is not harmful to this little dumpling. Batman confirmed this with Kirk Wayne in the parallel universe. For little Kirk, what needs to be paid attention to is not to take back his spirit The force tentacles, other than that, nothing would have an additional effect on him, not even summoning.
It can be said that I have been summoned once, and I am completely familiar with it the second time. If it is not because I need to switch the shell to communicate with Batman outside, report my situation and current location, I am afraid that this little guy will arrive. The speed of the summoned location will be faster.
"So you mean it might be because of magic?" In an apartment in Gotham, Sherlock and John were not idle at this time.
It was rare for Sherlock to stay up here all night without going to sleep, but he just stared at the computer so energetically, staring intently at a message inside.
John felt very tired seeing Sherlock like this.
As an assistant, it is impossible for John to let Sherlock mess around here alone. After all, Sherlock simply does not play cards according to common sense. .
It would be okay if he was in the UK, after all, he was protected by his brother, but this is Gotham, a notorious city, and it is not safe in broad daylight, let alone at night.
As an assistant, John also stayed with him all night here.
And the result of staying up all night is this - magic.
"Sherlock, I mean... I don't mean to question your meaning, I mean, is your conjecture a little... abrupt." John looked at Sherlock, mainly because he couldn't understand how he would put this Things involved magic.
After all, the UK where this incident happened, there are a lot of people on the magic side in this world, but most of them happened in the United States, and the daily messy things like alien invasions all happened in the free land of the United States.
The UK is not without magic testing, but they are relatively conservative and mysterious. The initial location of their case is in the UK. It is outrageous that the clues themselves point to Gotham. Obviously they say it is magic...
John thought it was a little more complicated.
You must know that Sherlock is not a person who gives up halfway. If he is interested in this case, he must solve it. If this matter has something to do with magic, then it will be dangerous.
Sherlock will never give up halfway because of this, besides, he has always been interested in magic.
Sherlock stared at the computer: "It's not surprising John, look at these dead people - I'm sure these are magical effects." His fingers tapped on the keyboard, and suddenly his eyes narrowed slightly, revealing He made a clear expression: "It seems that their action is tonight."
John was almost unresponsive by Sherlock's sudden words.
"What?" He was a little dazed, but Sherlock found that Sherlock suddenly closed the computer and stood up, then quickly disappeared in front of his eyes, and when he reappeared, he was almost fully dressed.
"It's time to act, John, this is a good opportunity." Sherlock straightened his clothes quickly - the new discovery made him look very refreshed, not at all drowsy and sleepy after staying up all night. The feeling of being sucked out.
At this moment, he was in exceptionally good spirits, as if he was about to go out to do something in the next second.
Oh no, maybe not as if, but as it is, because Sherlock is now fully dressed, even his hat.
"Don't tell me you plan to go out now, Sherlock, it's night, and this is Gotham." How could John fail to see what Sherlock meant, he was almost pissed off by this brat.
To put it bluntly, the cubs sleeping in the bedroom are more well-behaved and sensible than him.
This is not England, this is Gotham, wandering around Gotham at night with no power to restrain the chicken, and obviously going to a dangerous place, Sherlock is simply—
"Let's go?" Sherlock didn't look back.
John: "... Let's go." What if you don't go, Sherlock has realized that it is impossible to stay at home honestly, and it is absolutely impossible for John to let this guy run alone.
As Sherlock's assistant, he has been to dangerous places many times anyway, who made him run into the uneasy Sherlock?
But the cub in the bedroom... John looked back at the bedroom, only to find that the door had been opened a crack.
A little cub opened the door at some point, and was looking at the two people on his side through the gap at this time. After being discovered, he obviously had no fear of being caught, so he was so open-minded. He pushed the door open.
"You guys have to go out." Xiaotuanzi said childishly, "Take me with you." After a pause, he added, "Otherwise, none of you will even think about leaving."
