Chapter 567: I, Joker (6)

Translator: Lonelytree

That night the people of Gotham finally remembered the fear that once gripped them. This laughter had not echoed through the sky of Gotham for many years already. One day about a decade ago, batman and joker suddenly disappeared together and were never seen again. And tonight, these two characters were about to be revivedfor real.

Cough this thing is definitely not the person that I captured When the Bruce landed, he still appeared calm. After his breathing returned to normal, he immediately opened his cape and activated the gliders and flew up the roof of the nearby building. At the same time, he used the communication fixed into his right face to contact the control centre at the castle. Gordon, did you people see that?

Ye yes Gordon replied with a shaking voice. The floaters have captured everything

Are there anything you need to tell me? Bruce pressed.

Erm Gordon was stumped.

Klibon! Say something! The Bruce demanded.

We are still analyzing, sir. Klibon's voice soon came, But based on current situation, there are two things that you need to be careful about first, when he was flying in the air, he was not using any floatation device; two, his speed and strength are about 30 percent higher than your maximum. He paused for a moment. Hmm Just a head's up, that Harley Quinn is not weaker than this man.

Damn it what is going on? The Bruce growled.

Sir, I believe the time for game is over. Klibon answered.

Don't you think I know that?! The Bruce shouted back angrily.

Hong

At that moment, a loud crash distracted his attention. The Bruce turned to look and saw that his aircraft had crashed into the bay. And the 'Joker' had managed to rescue Two Face from the flying saucer.

Klibon, ready the battle suit, I will have to use it when I return. The Bruce knew that there was no chance of winning if he charged at his opponent head on so he quickly changed his directly and flew back to his own castle. Gordon, gather the team of Robins and get them to be ready for battle.

Yes sir. The two responded.

Meet you later. The Bruce said and ended the call. Even though he looked collected on the surface, a seed of fear had sewn in his heart. [Who is that 'Joker'? Or what is he? Is there really ghost in this world? And they have resurrected tonight?]

At the same time, on the other side of the city.

[I have not seen those vulture like cameras for a while already] Ruoyu was hopping through the roofs and thought to herself. [Those patrolling shuttles are only tailing me from very far behind and do not have the courage to come any closer] Her eyes swept every dark corner and every street. [There should be part of the fixed surveillance that can locate my movement, but currently everyone's focus should be pulled by Bujue]

Ruoyu naturally saw what Feng Bujue had done on the big screen. She had no idea whether Brother Jue had another meaning behind his action or he was just having fun. In any case, her goal was clear, it was to follow the hint from earlier and headed towards the police station.

hmm? Suddenly, Ruoyu caught something in her eyes. She hesitated for two seconds before she stopped and turned into a leap. Her acrobatic body slithered through the night sky and landed on the ground.

Hey! Down the dark alley about 10 metres away, Soulie was waving at her. From the player's perspective, their teammates still looked the same (Other than when they looked at each other through surveillance images or mirror), therefore Ruoyu was able to spot Soulie easily.

How did you find me? Ruoyu asked when she moved towards her cousin.

it's a long story. Here, take this first Soulie did not waste time and quickly handed over a signal disruptor. After Ruoyu accepted the item, she scanned the item description quickly, then she said to herself, So this is why no wonder they are able to find me no matter what. She immediately understood why she was unable to shake off the cameras on her even though she had destroyed all the surveillance device in her sight.

Follow me, we will move from underground. Soulie said as she led Ruoyu into the alley. The alley was not deep, the only camera had been shot down by Soulie. At the end of the alley, there was an entrance that led into the sewer. Joe was waiting for them there. Hi, ladies. He greeted Ruoyu.

This is Joe, the leader of the rebels. Soulie made the introduction quickly, then she grumbled at Joe, Don't just stand there, go, go.

Joe was quite obedient, he turned and headed down the sewer entrance, he grabbed the ladder and slid down. The players did not need to do that, a drop of several metres would not harm them. With Soulie leading the way, with a single leap, she disappeared down the hole; Ruoyu followed behind her. Inside the sewer, other than Joe, there was another female Npc standing there. She looked around 20 and had a head of auburn hair. She could be considered a beauty from her look and curves.

This is Marya, part of the rebels as well. Soulie added.

Nice to meet you. Marya greeted Ruoyu.

The pleasure is mine. The latter responded. While the greeting was exchange, the quest announcement rang in the players' ears. Current quest completed, main quest updated. The two immediately pulled up the game menu to check the quest tab. They saw that the original quest 'Survive in this chase and meet up with at least one of your teammates' had been ticked away and the new updated quest was, 'Kill the Bruce.'

When Rouyu and Soulie saw the quest objective, they looked at each other with confusion They were bewildered regarding the timing of this quest. Because from the setting of the scenario, The Bruce was most likely the final boss. If killing him could clear the scenario, then wouldn't the plot be too short.

Two seconds later, another system announcement rang out, hidden quest triggered. And this change cleared away their suspicion. The content of this hidden quest was, Help Joe Collins to inherit the spirit and work of Batman.

Erm In any case, I think we should go to the police station to meet up with the guild leader first. Soulie suggested after she saw the side quest mission. Ruoyu nodded in agreement, yes.

Then, Soulie turned to tell Joe, How is Dar and everyone else?

They have already gathered near the police station, waiting for us. Joe looked at the device he was holding and said.

Okay, let us move out then. Soulie said and led the way ahead. Ruoyu moved quickly to follow.

Joe was stunned for a few seconds. He then turned to Marya beside him and laughed. When did she become the one giving direction I am the leader here, right?

From how I see it at least she is stronger than you are. Marya smiled at Joe and then moved to follow the ladies.

Joe shrugged and mumbled to himself, At least I know how to use the gliders

Several minutes later, at the northern side of the bay. After saving Xiao Tan, Feng Bujue carried the latter on his shoulder and used Geppo to escape from the crowd. By now, they had arrived on a relatively empty street and landed back on the ground.

Brother Jue, why didn't you use the chance to kill the Bruce earlier? Xiao Tan asked when he landed on the ground. When you helped me block the aircraft, the main quest has been updated, right? He was not wrong. When Feng Bujue stepped on the bat aircraft, both of their main quest had updated. And they did not receive any hidden quest, so in other words Brother Jue had reason to make his move on the Bruce.

What if the scenario is over after I kill him? Feng Bujue tossed the question back.

What about it? Xiao Tan asked in confusion, Isn't it a good thing to clear a scenario?

What is so good about that Feng Bujue said, It is not that often that we run into a scenario with such a low difficulty boss and such a great freedom. If we leave just like that, it will be such a waste.

Oh Xiao Tan contemplated. You're right, if the scenario ended so quickly, there would be little EXP and game Coins as well as Skill Points, in that case, better stay in the scenario to explore for equipment and skill cards.

Bingo. Feng Bujue said, Alright, now, the first step is He pointed at an electric pole by the side of the road, Go and touch that exposed electrical box.

Why would I do that? Xiao Tan gasped in panic. I was about to ask you about that why did you recite some poem and electrocute yourself earlier? What were you thinking?

The poems were to transmit information. Feng Bujue replied calmly. The electrocution He raised his hand, used both his pointing and middle finger to tap at his temple, is to destroy the embedded chip inside the brain.

What chip? Xiao Tan pressed.

Stop wasting time. It's not like you will understand it even if I explain it to you. Actually, the truth was Feng Bujue did not know how the thing worked himself. Just go and electrocute yourself.

Fine Xiao Tan sighed helplessly. Then he walked to stand before the electrical box. The sleeve blade bounced out and he used it to pry the box open. Erm He turned back to ask, So I only needed to touch it and let go like you did?

Isn't that a given? Place your hand there for a few more seconds and you'll be transported out from the scenario in a white light. Feng Bujue answered.

Hearing that, Xiao Tan's face was pulled long. After a few seconds of internal conflict, he gritted his teeth and reached his hand into the box.

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah

Pat!

Ah your head! Feng Bujue walked forward and slapped him on the back of his head. Don't you know simple science? Plastic switches won't conduct electricity. Why are you screaming when you were just holding them?

Hmm? Xiao Tan turned to look, Oh, I was wondering how come I did not feel anything

Touch this place. Feng Bujue pointed out the correct spot. Here, see it or not.

Oh. Xiao Tan nodded as he reached his finger out again.

Pat!

Brother Jue whacked him again.

What now?

Gloves! Gloves! Gloves! Feng Bujue roared and he launched into a flying kick at Xiao Tan.

Okay okay sorry, sorry Xiao Tan quickly removed his gloves, took a deep time, and reached his hand into the box again.

This time, he was finally sent flying by the sparks of electricity that surged through his body
