Chapter 169 Published



The maid turned off the light and closed the door with very light force.

Now is the time for Professor Daisy to rest. Due to physical reasons, the professor's daily routine is very regular, and she doesn't like anyone to accompany her, as it will affect her sleep.

Just like the Princess and the Pea, her body is fragile and sensitive. Since arriving in South Hinckley, Professor Daisy seemed to have decided to retire here. She only left her room once, and the rest of the time she was immersed in translation and research.

This is not surprising for Maid and Doctor; Daisy Diamond has been like this for many years.

Damian, who was not familiar with Daisy, had gotten used to her schedule and ways of doing things after spending half a month with her. The Assassin's League had found other translators for the document they needed, but they were all dead. Only Daisy, though weak, could read the document normally. Damian knew the seriousness of the matter, so even though Daisy's speed was extremely slow, he tolerated it.

Recently, he has not been staying by the professor's side, but has been fighting against Tim Drake -

It was Tim who took the initiative to investigate the Assassin's League, and Damian didn't mind giving him a hard time.

Anyway, with Daisy's health condition, as long as she leaves the room, there will be a huge disturbance, and he can receive news at any time.

...That's the theory.

After the maid turned off the light, a pale hand reached out from under the quilt and grabbed a headphone.

The professor plugged one ear, did not call anyone, and did not move the wheelchair beside her. Her face became visibly rosier and more rosy. Then, she changed her clothes in an instant and disappeared from the room.

Half an hour later, at the park lakeside.

The woman in front of them was still Professor Daisy Diamond, but almost no one could recognize her, even with her simple disguise.

She changed into a light black trench coat with a hood and a pair of metal boots. Two blue horizontal lines were painted on each cheek with oil paint, but she still wore a monocle, looking mysterious and dangerous.

The most obvious change is that she is not weak at all, which makes her seem like a completely different person.

"Good evening, Professor Diamond," the professor was looking at the sparkling lake when a voice suddenly sounded behind him. Someone behind him said, "Park Lake is a nice place, isn't it?"

"I'm not interested in boring small talk," the professor didn't seem surprised. She still stared straight ahead and raised her hand to touch her earlobe. "Just tell me your purpose, Lincoln March, or should I call you Mr. Wayne?"

The person behind him walked out from the shadows. It was Lincoln March.

"This is not my goal," the man's expression was completely different from that during the day. He looked extremely gloomy. "This is the common goal of the Assassin's League and the Owl Court - to control the city of Gotham in our hands, Professor."

Professor, that is, Weiwei who was operating the trumpet, remained silent on the surface, but was extremely speechless in her heart. Her thoughts at this moment were probably -

"Why is it always you?"

She came to Park Lake to meet Lincoln March, "Bruce Wayne's brother (self-proclaimed)", because no official documents could prove that the other party was really Bruce's brother, and this guy was mixed in the mayor's secretary team. In order to catch the big fish, she allowed the other party to do whatever he wanted and just monitored him in various ways to make sure everything was under control.

After thinking about it, Weiwei chose to get in touch with Lincoln by using the identity of "professor".

In other words, it's not the professor, but the black sheep.

[Black Sheep (Title): With this title, you can easily gain the attention and attention of criminals, but you will also be more vulnerable to attacks.]

Weiwei tried the effect of this title. Simply put, it made the villains think she was a more evil person worth following, and made the good people think that there was something wrong with her - even without any evidence, they would instinctively pay attention to her behavior.

The title seems to have a cognitive effect, which is not obvious, but enough for the professor to gain Lincoln March's favor with this title.

——Just say that you are not a good person.

Then she learned that there was an underground world beneath Park Lake.

Sure enough, there was fish, but this was not Vivi's main purpose. It could only be said to be an unexpected surprise. Lincoln, this guy, would not think that he could use those ordinary residents underground to cause real chaos, right? Does he really have nothing else to rely on?

So Vivi took the second step and made Lincoln feel that she could "get involved", that is, she was not a weak young lady sitting in a wheelchair, but another party that also wanted to destroy Gotan's forces.

In reality, however, Daisy Diamond is just a weak clerical assistant.

Weiwei found a way to stand up.

[Bronze·Scene: Whisper]

[Summoning an inexplicable whisper at any time and place, no one can understand what the voice is saying, but the harder people listen, the more fear they will feel. ]

Regardless of the reason, improving her body is very simple. Just draw a card and get an item that can replenish blood. However, Vivi noticed that the professor would lose blood because of translating the contents of the parchment, but would not lose blood because of reading books or translating other ordinary documents, which shows that this is related to the true content of the parchment.

After half a month's work, she had already translated part of the content. The parchment showed the method and spell to summon an "unknown existence". However, her game skills were not very stable. Every time she browsed (losing blood), she could only recognize a few words here and there. Therefore, the current document content was still messy and censored, and was of no use.

Since she lost blood because of the spell, can she replenish blood by using the spell?

——She thought of the whispers.

This is the only item in the system that is related to prophecy and unknown danger. This whisper can drive NPCs crazy, but when her ears were filled with this sound, all her characters did not lose blood, and Professor Daisy Diamond's half-remaining blood volume even increased slowly and steadily.

These two items constitute the prerequisite for the professor to stand in front of Lincoln March, and the other one is...

"There is no need for the Assassin's League to cooperate with Owl," the professor said calmly, "Your control over Gotham City is not even as good as that of the GCPD."

Lincoln was silent for a moment. "The Owl Court's sphere of influence is not limited to Gotham."

He knew that the accident that happened to the court members could be hidden from ordinary people, but not from the members of the Assassin's League, so he naturally did not make any unnecessary moves, but emphasized: "As for the GCPD, they are just ordinary people. We can deal with them at any time."

"Then I'm sorry, Mr. Wayne," the black-haired woman pushed her glasses and smiled. "In fact, the Assassin's League and the Court have already reached an agreement, and this part of the agreement does not include you. The Owl Court is also composed of people, so there will naturally be struggles. We have already chosen other factions, so how can we cooperate with you?"

Yes, Professor Daisy disguised herself as a member of the Assassin's League.

This was not difficult, as the Assassins had no idea she was disguising herself in front of Lincoln March.

Before, the good man Luther helped Talia and cleaned up all the people who left Daisy around her, but in the eyes of the Owl Court, it was a mysterious force that cleaned out the people from the Assassin's League who protected Daisy Diamond.

Before the people in the court were dealt with by Weiwei, their intelligence network was not weak.

Next, as long as it is discovered that Damian is actually Damian O'Goo, the professor is an important person who stays with O'Goo's son.

The professor seemed sickly on the surface, but he was actually very healthy. This naturally aroused the suspicion of a smart man like Lincoln March, so he soon realized that -

"It is impossible for the Assassin's League not to know that the professor is not weak. They just cooperate with her to hide it from other ordinary people. According to the investigation, Professor Daisy was indeed as she appeared on the surface. She must have had some adventure, which may be related to the Assassin's League. Therefore, she was absorbed into the Assassin's League. Their purpose in coming to Tan..."

Obviously, it's for the city of Gotham.

The Assassin's League possesses military and financial power, so naturally they want to pursue power, the right to control.

In fact, there are many frictions between the Assassin's League and the Court of Owl throughout the world, because both organizations want to control the wealth of the world. However, they may cooperate when necessary.

Why did Professor Daisy pretend to be weak? It was to deceive Anna Elle.

Alec is an illegitimate daughter, and Professor Daisy is her biological aunt. Considering the character Alec developed in New York, it is normal for her to please and get close to her aunt. All her efforts are to gain recognition from the family. Family is her weak spot and the source of her inferiority.

So... the Assassin's League investigated everything and sent Professor Daisy here. The deepest purpose was naturally -

"Mr. C!"

"You mean cooperation with Rothesay?" Lincoln shook his head. "Maybe the Assassin's League thinks so, but is the professor really willing to cooperate with Mrs. Rothesay?"

Mrs. Rothesay's sister gave birth to an illegitimate daughter for the professor's brother. This was not a big deal to the Assassin's League, but it was not necessarily the case for Daisy herself. Their positions were naturally incompatible and there was a personal grudge between them.

—That was Mrs. Rothesay's sister Martha! A dead woman!

Lincoln put himself in Martha's shoes and didn't believe that Martha died of childbirth. He didn't believe that the Diamond family did nothing to interfere with the love affair.

Moreover, the original situation was that Roset would push her niece to become the mayor, slowly disintegrate the control of other owls over Gotham City, and become the one-man show of their family, cooperating with the Assassin's League. However, the sudden appearance of a third party force "Mr. C" made their cooperation unbalanced. Anna Ellec was no longer a vassal of Mrs. Roset, but a woman who could stand firm on her own.

Their ways need to change.

Sure enough, the black-haired woman in front of him was silent. She stared at Lincoln for a while, then raised the corners of her lips: "What do you want?"

"The things you gave to Rothesay," Lincoln said cunningly.

The professor smiled again and said, "Then you don't have enough chips at the moment."

Her reaction confirmed one thing for Lincoln... that was indeed a technology that could allow for body swapping.

In that case, he must get it.

Lincoln wants to completely exchange his body with Bruce Wayne. This is not only an exchange of body, but also an exchange of destiny. He wants to take back his original destiny, which is owed to him by Bruce, his brother.

"Come with me," Lincoln said.

Of course he could subdue Professor Daisy directly, but Lincoln felt that this woman could not have no backup plan.

Sure enough, not long after the two of them entered the underground city, a man in a black robe appeared silently behind them. Even Lincoln only noticed him after he approached.

The man followed Professor Daisy in a guarding position. The professor glanced at him and made it clear with her eyes that the Assassin's League had already known the information about the dungeon, so this was not a backup plan.

Lincoln glanced at her and walked deeper into the underground from the abandoned mine in the dungeon. The temperature rose to a level that even Sharp Claws felt uncomfortable, but the lady next to him only put on the other earphone and looked normal.

The light in front of my eyes flickered, but after turning the last corner, everything became clear. Thick hot air hit my face, and I realized that this was actually an underground magma pool.
