Chapter 570: I, Joker (9)

Translator: Lonelytree

Several minutes earlier, at the rooftop of the police station.

So you are telling me Joe used a tone that was between suspicion and enquiry to say, The four of you are actually aliens from a parallel universe?

Indeed. Feng Bujue answered. We are only temporarily borrowing the bodies of these four people. Once we depart, they will turn back into normal people and they will not remember a thing about their bodies being possessed. At that moment, Brother Jue had come up with a relatively reasonable excuse that could not be proven to explain the many questions about their ident.i.ties. Other than that, he had expressed his willingness to work with the rebels. Joe and Marya naturally were suspicious of his words, but overall between trust and distrust, they were more leaning towards the former.

Okay then. Joe gave a long sigh as an answer.

okay then? Feng Bujue repeated the mans words in the form of a question before adding. Are you not going to request for more information regarding such an unbelievable phenomenon?

it does not matter. Joe replied, it does not matter even if you have told us nothing but lies.

Oh? Brother Jue chuckled. Are you not worried that I am lying and taking advantage of you?

Ha ha Joe laughed and pointed his finger behind him. You people can drop down from a building almost 20 metres tall unscathed; and then you can leap up the same distance easily while carrying me and Marya; that Harley Quinn only used 30 seconds to kill 15 fully armored Robins; Poison Ivy used few minutes to memorize the map of the entire citys underground sewer; and you At this point, he turned around to look at Musas.h.i.+ Koganei who was modifying the spotlight. you manage to summon a strange little boy out of thin air joe shrugged and tossed the question back. You all are able to do miraculous things like that, do you even need to lie to take advantage of us?

Hmm he has a point. Xiao Tan listened to Joes reasoning and nodded his head in agreement.

Who asked for your opinion. Feng Bujue glanced at Xiao Tan. Shoo, shoo go and play with your coin and leave the adults alone.

Oh Xiao Tan was surprisingly obedient. Once Brother Jue chased him away, he obediently did what he was told. If he just walked away, that would have been fine, but he really took out a coin from his pocket and started to play with it by flipping it repeatedly into the air.

Name: Two Faces Coin

Item Type: Plot Item

Quality: Normal

Function: Unknown (Can only be possessed by Two Face)

Whether it can be taken out from the scenario: No

Remark: This was a Gotham City Memorial Coin released in the year 1922, it was a very rare false currency. Both sides were printed with human faces and one of the faces was melted into disfigurement due to contact with strong acid, just like its owner.

When Xiao Tan entered the scenario, this coin appeared in his inventory but for now, he still had no idea what this thing was for. After meeting up with Brother Jue, he shared this information with him and that was why Brother Jue told him to go play with the coin half-jokingly.

In any case, I accept your proposal for a collaboration. Joe then turned to tell Brother Jue. After all our so-called rebel organizations only 2 living members left, we have no reason to reject your aid. Marya who had been standing beside Joe reminded him then, By the way, Joe, I think we are unable to return to our underground base inside the sewer already.

Joe added in a listless tone, Youre right Dar would have revealed the location of the base to the Bruce a long time ago. I believe they are just waiting for a correct timing to capture all of us and that was why they had not made any move earlier. His hands gripped into fists. Aiz I hate to admit it but the Bruce is one scary adversary.

Do not think too low of yourself. Feng Bujue said, In my opinion, be it in terms of physique or intelligence, you are as good if not better than the man, but in terms of experience and determination, you are still lacking.

Oh thanks, hopefully youre right. Even with the praise from Brother Jue, Joe did not become arrogant, he only replied calmly. At that moment, Marya decided to slip in a question, Erm, Mr. Joker, if you dont mind me asking are you the leader of this small team? Hearing that, Feng Bujue did not answer immediately but turned to look at Ruoyu.

Why are you looking at me for? Ruoyu glared back at him.

Fine~ Ill stop looking. Feng Bujue smiled as he turned back to Marya and Joe. Hm I suppose you can say that.

Then can you tell us in details what is the next step of your plan? Marya asked. Joe asked, Thats right, Im also curious about that myself He paused as he glanced to the side, What is the purpose for modifying a spotlight that had been abandoned for almost a century already?

Oh~ About that. Feng Bujue began, That would be the first step of my great plan

Leader, do you know that 95 percent of antagonists will say something like that and 80 percent of them will fail in the end. Soulie who was sitting at the edge of the roof responsible for scouting found this timing to chide Feng Bujue.

Shush this is not a kids cartoon anyway. Feng Bujue narrowed his eyes to reply.

Because it is not one, the moment you said it, it only made you sound so much dumber Ruoyu delivered another jab.

Fine, fine Feng Bujue sighed and corrected himself, This will be the first step of a very normal plan that I have come up with.

Xiao Tan then followed it up with, Then what is the final goal of this plan?

Feng Bujue smiled wickedly and then raised both of his arms as if in supplication and announced, To revive batman!

What? Joe and Marya responded at the same time, they really did not get what Brother Jue was saying.

If youre looking for a batman, there is already one in the city and he is quite alive. Joe said contemplatively. Or do you plan to revive the legendary Bruce Wayne?

Hah of course not Feng Bujue put on a pretence of mystery and responded in a hard to read tone, batman might not necessarily be a person. In fact this term represents more of a spirit.

Just as they were conversing, Musas.h.i.+ Kogenai next to the spotlight interrupted with a strange laughter. Tsk tsk tsk Boss, I am done.

You can kill a person but you cannot kill a spirit. Feng Bujue said as he walked over to the spotlight, As one once saida hero might die but his spirit always lives on. By then, he had reached the front of the spotlight.

Look, like you said, I have changed it into the shape of a smiley face. Musas.h.i.+ Kogenai lifted his head to tell Brother Jue.

Hmm, well done. Feng Bujue said as he took out the military shovel from his inventory. And then he used the skill Not So hasty Repair on the giant spotlight. To make things awkward the first time Brother Jue used the skill, he failed. As a player with Mastery C in Workmans.h.i.+p (75 percent success rate) and the determination of the alchemist (additional 10 percent success rate), this proved that indeed he had the luck of an antagonist.

Regardless a waste of 200 Stamina Point did not matter to the current Brother Jue. And after the skill failed, it would not go into cooldown so he quickly used it again.

Okay, have all the wires been connected? After finally activated the skill, Feng Bujue asked.

Do you even need to ask, tsk tsk tsk Musas.h.i.+ Kogenai replied in his quintessential bizarre tone.

Feng Bujue nodded and then came to the other side of the spotlight. With a hard push and pull, he turned the heavy machinery that was about several hundred kilograms for 80 degrees. Okay now, switch it on. Brother Jue ordered. With the order, Musas.h.i.+ moved to oblige. With his lecherous bouncing steps, he ran to the electrical box and pulled on the lever.

With the sound of the generator being operated, a power white pillar of light shot into the night sky.

I still dont quite get it Joe looked at the smiley face in the sky and asked. You said you want to revive the Batman, so how come you are shooting the symbol of the Joker into the sky?

You will soon understand it. Feng Bujue fixed the angle of the spotlight and then he let go. But now before the Bruce and his army arrive, let me give everyone here a simple brief of our movement plan for the next few hours.
