In the early morning of April 25, the night was dark.

On the helicopter, Weiwei received a call from the "Parliament" for the first time.

When the phone rang on her screen, she also received a special guidance task——

[You have activated the guidance mission: Mayor's identity]

[Anna Alec, you have never tried to explore your own identity. Why did you become the mayor of Gotham? Maybe this phone call can give you the answer.]

[The character card module has been activated. Extract valid information from the phone call from the parliament. The information will be displayed on the character card.]

[Mission Reward: 20 Diamonds]

Weiwei found that the glasses she was not wearing in her package disappeared, and there was an optional module on the system panel, namely the character module.

Anna Elle, Bella Bettivan, C, and Vivi herself are all in this module, and you can switch between characters with one click.

There were other people on the plane, and she didn't try to switch, but quickly scanned the panel -

Anna is on the first page. On the left is a headshot, and below is an introduction to her basic information such as her name, height, and weight. On the upper right is her binding outfit, including her work suit and a dress she only wore once, and below is her belongings.

Bella is on the second page. Her only binding outfit is her regular clothes, but she has an extra motorcycle than Anna, and she also has a long list of skills.

What Weiwei didn't expect was that "C" was also there, on the third page. Is this made-up character still a character? This page has no skills, but it has a phone book with the phone numbers of several important NPCs related to C, such as the penguin man and the violin. C's avatar is a silhouette whose gender cannot be determined.

——There is a line of words under the silhouette: Which one is you, the you in your own eyes or the you in the eyes of others?

The last page is Vivi herself. The brown-haired girl has a bright smile and only one default appearance. But unlike the other characters, there are two corpses in her inventory. If you focus on the items, the cause of death and location of the corpses will be displayed.

Weiwei: “…They are all quite unique.”

She answered the phone on the plane, and to be honest, it was quite noisy. The person on the other end of the line was a lady who only introduced herself by her last name and asked Vivi to call her "Mrs. Rosset."

Weiwei looked through the profile of the person in front of her and slowly interacted with her casually.

As the conversation progressed, new information began to fill in the blank spaces on Anna's character panel in front of her.

[Identity: Mayor (illegitimate daughter of the patriarch of the New York wealthy Diamond family)]

[Short introduction: After the previous mayor was murdered, you, who had failed politically, hit it off with a certain senior official in the parliament. You became the new mayor of Gotham in a vote in the parliament. Everyone thought you were just a tool temporarily placed in this position... But look at what you did, now you are a traitor in their eyes! However, it seems that there is still a chance to save it? ]

"What on earth are you doing, Alec?" Mrs. Rothesay said in a disgruntled tone, with a hint of complaint, "You are destroying Gotham. Gotham is best when it is under the control of the court, and you want to destroy her for your own sake!"

Weiwei looked strange. She said, "So what should I do?"

The voice on the other side was much gentler: "You have successfully mastered the power in your hands, good boy, but you should not try to change the situation in Gotan, or even cooperate with others-"

Are these other people referring to Mr. C? How come everyone knows about him? Is Mr. C going to debut and become a national idol?

Weiwei interrupted, "Will you send the Claw to kill me?"

Her disrespectful attitude made the lady's tone even more sinister: "Maybe, but you still have time to turn back, if--"

"Can you mass-produce claws?"

"Of course not..." The lady paused, realizing that Vivi's repeated interruptions had clearly irritated her, "Alec!"

The claws cannot be mass-produced? Then the number of people should be very small. Wouldn't it be because they think highly of Bella Betivin to send them out for assassination? Was it because of Betivin herself, or because they suspected that Betivin was Mayor Alec's subordinate?

Weiwei pondered the information revealed by the other party and felt that the hidden message behind it seemed very strange. She deliberately said: "Everything I did was for the court, but we chose different paths, Ms. Rothesay."

There was silence for a longer time on the other end, then the person said "Don't regret it" and hung up the phone.

Weiwei knocked on the car window. She was flying under the nebula, and the lights in downtown Gotham were far brighter than the stars.

She suddenly laughed out loud.

Because she thinks the game's plot and background design are really interesting——

When Weiwei first activated the new power [Owl Court], the opponent's favorability was medium to bad, and reminded her that she could be saved.

Then she brainwashed the head of the SWAT special forces and froze the claws sent by Owl into ice, but now Weiwei opened the power module——

[Owl Court (Middle to Good)]

[The court is slightly dissatisfied with you, but will not really take action against you for the time being because you are the mayor they promoted]

Because the plot had concealed the background story of "Anna Elle", Weiwei had never thought that this character actually had a background story. She actually found out about it at this time -

Anna Ellech, maybe she was originally from the court!

[You have completed the guidance mission: Identity of the Mayor]

As the reward is received, new information slowly appears on Anna's character card in a burning state.

【Anna Ellech】

[Identity: Mayor (illegitimate daughter of the head of the Diamond family, a wealthy New York family, and a member of the Owl Court)]

[Hint: Even Winston doesn't know your identity. You are hiding deeper than you think. You need to explore the past... maybe you can think back to your deceased "mother"? ]

So Weiwei discovered the huge creature in the darkness of Gotan City, the Owl Court, but when she was determined to fight it, she found out that they were actually on the same side! ?

——So what if we are one of us?

As long as the green name shows the health bar, can't we still fight?

Look at the ratio of red names to green names in Gotan City. The subordinates are red names and the enemies are green names. Isn't this very reasonable?

She switched communications: "What's the situation in the East District now?"

For ordinary East District residents, this is naturally not a good thing.

The entire East District is made up of unemployed people, criminals, and poor people, with a population of over 400,000. Both the SWAT team and Violin's small company had limited impact. To be precise, Violin only did two things after arriving in the East District:

Define a site (company headquarters) in the most chaotic area near Crime Alley and greet the neighbors around it with "fists".

He hasn't even really done anything, and he doesn't have many people, but the reason he is taken seriously is because his actions represent the will of those who come after him.

——Mr. C meant.

Since we can't catch Mr. C, the "mastermind", we might as well wipe out all his minions.

The SWAT special forces drove in three unmanned small tanks. When their people moved through the streets, people leaned their heads out of the windows to look out but did not dare to make any sound. A store owner saw the headlights from a distance on the street and immediately closed the door of his convenience store.

The entire SWAT team was 120 people, which was already an astonishing number, but on the way to Crime Alley, Wen waved his hand and said to his deputy, "Go to Carmine Corner."

Although the deputy was puzzled, he did not raise any questions and immediately passed the order down -

Corner Rouge is also part of the East District. Gotan is a coastal city, and this place is close to the beach and has long been occupied by a criminal group. Wen explained: "I received news that some of the Penguin's men are hiding here."

There was an official reason for their unit to set out, which was to hunt down the Penguin Man's fugitive subordinates.

Relying on the suppression of numbers and weapons, the battle of Carmine Horn lasted less than an hour.

There are always casualties in a battle, and Wen chooses to leave a few people to guard the prisoners and contact the MCU branch in the East District to take them away.

Then, as the deputy looked on in confusion, he continued, "Go to the boiler area."

Street fighting also broke out in the boiler area, and the criminals hiding there only managed to survive if they surrendered quickly and were lucky.

Then came the Cairn Bridge. Two small gangs that were dealing weapons struggled a bit and were defeated. Then came the Bowery. This place was very close to Crime Alley, but they were unable to open fire because the gangsters here were too smart. Those with real criminal records had already fled to other places, leaving the orphans and prostitutes shivering in the shabby room... The army with half the number of people missing finally arrived at Crime Alley.

The deputy breathed a sigh of relief with an imperceptible degree of relief. He almost thought that the place they were going to attack would be the headquarters of the MCU - after all, the MCU was also in the East District.

When we got to Crime Alley, we found that compared to the prosperous main city area, this place was much more dilapidated. There were few tall buildings and almost no shops. Even lighted windows were seldom seen at night. The few that did have an ambiguous red light on, which was the prostitutes soliciting customers.

Although a lot of firepower was consumed along the way, the rocket launchers were still there and the tanks could still be maintained, so the problem was not too big.

If they use this small tank in street fighting, they will basically have no enemies unless they encounter the Batmobile, the deputy thought firmly.

Batman and his sidekicks do hang out in the East End because of the crime scene, but even if Batman were there, there's no reason to stop them, right?

The deputy was holding up a telescope when suddenly everything went dark in front of him.

A guy with a blue bird with outstretched wings on his chest dropped from the sky and squatted on the hood of their car.

"Good evening, gentlemen. Are you here for a weapons demonstration?" The upper half of his face was covered by a domino mask, revealing a hearty but chilling smile. He tilted his head to look at the gun muzzle sticking out of the window. "RPG? Tank? It's a bad idea to use such weapons in the city, unless you want to be crushed by the falling steel bars?"

He stretched out the stick in his hand and easily placed it on the shoulder of the soldier holding the rocket launcher who was closest to him. Then, he used the reaction force to hook the weapon in the opponent's hand and lifted it upwards. The moment the weapon was in the air, he sprayed it with gel bombs, and with one stick, he pulled the rocket launcher wrapped in the bomb away.

Weapons exploded in mid-air, and the wind pressure was overwhelming, surrounded by the smell of gunpowder smoke. Everyone subconsciously covered their faces.

Wen caught a glimpse of someone in another car raising a cannon. He feigned anger and said, "You're not allowed to use RPGs? Are you trying to blow me up with them?"

But in his heart, he silently gave Nightwing a thumbs up.

Well done!
