Chapter 66 Published



"You couldn't save me," someone whispered.

This is the lowest dungeon in Arkham Asylum. It does not exist on the map at all. It is a cell modified by the prisoners themselves.

No one knows why the prisoners built this place...to escape? No, they have a hundred other ways to escape, always with the blood of innocent people, and now, Batman is locked up here.

"Why didn't you save me?" The voice in my ear changed its tone and timbre, but it was still filled with the same despair.

Batman frowned, punched through the wall in front of him, and then pressed his forehead.

After all, he is not a god, he is a mortal.

This cell does not leave any space for people to escape. Sometimes the simplest design can trap the world's best escape master - all you have to do is give the workers a chimney drawing and ask them to dig a well with smooth walls, small at the top and large at the bottom.

Then, to the bottom of the well is thrown a person who has been sprayed with fear gas, "a psychopath in a bat costume."

Is Batman scared?

He was afraid all the time, and the bat was the embodiment of his childhood fear, so he put on a bat-shaped armor, he tried to understand his fear, and then to defeat it, but his fear was changing every moment -

The death of a parent.

Parents may be disappointed with their current situation.

If a child dies, the child will be hurt and may kill himself.

Failed to save this person, failed to save these people, failed to save everyone...

He panted, poked at the cracks in the wall, confirmed the moisture in the ground, then took out the gel bomb and used it on the wall. With a muffled "bang", the bomb exploded, and a stream of turbid water rushed in.

It seems that his guess was correct. Although the prisoners chose this place, such a deep place was not something they could build. Instead, it was an abandoned wellhead. So this place must be connected to groundwater.

Batman's communicator was not actually damaged, it was just that the lunatics in Arkham had developed a new signal jammer.

As he sank into the water, the whispers in his ears became an indistinct buzzing, but Batman floated to the surface.

He will be afraid, but he will not succumb to fear.

Now, it's time to go up.

"First," Tim said, "I have to go take out the signal blockers that are keeping us from contacting Batman. Oracle has found the location, but the blockers at three locations must be taken out at the same time. She'll have a drone blow up the third one, and if they don't happen at the same time, it'll activate...see, that ugly little bomb hanging there."

An ugly little balloon man hangs on the spire in the center of Arkham Asylum, smiling mockingly at everyone.

The entire insane asylum covers a large area. In addition to mentally ill criminals, it also accepts other mentally ill patients. There are the best psychologists in the whole of Gotham, but half of them have become new mentally ill criminals, such as Harley Quinn.

Harley Quinn, who once studied psychology at Gotham University, then became a psychologist in Arkham. She was seduced by Ugly and fell in love with him, and from Dr. Harleen Quinzel she became "Ugly Girl" Harley.

And now the little ugly boy and the little ugly girl have escaped together, and the oracle is still tracking them.

These three places were in a triangle shape, all guarded by criminals. The GCPD was fighting with the criminals directly below, and the flying vigilantes were responsible for handling other issues. The green vine wrapped around Vivi's arms was raised like a snake and pointed at Robin.

They split up.

Now Vivi is located directly above the Arkham Asylum's common dining hall, and there are three people below her, all holding guns.

This is what it feels like to team up to play a dungeon!

She swung her vines, dropped from the sky and kicked over the man on the far left. The sound of breaking glass immediately attracted the attention of the other two men, but before one of them raised his gun, Weiwei's vines swung out, snatched his gun, and directly hung the man up.

The man on the far right thought he had a chance, but the next second, he felt a huge force - a white horse suddenly appeared behind him, kicked him over with one hoof, and stepped on him several times.

"I figured it out."

Weiwei finished her words on the comms, and Tim responded, "Okay, I've solved it here, Oracle, you decide when to destroy it."

"Put the bombs on the indicator panel of the shield and I will blow them up. You can go to the criminal area now."

The third place must also be guarded by someone, so Oracle must carefully control the drone to control time. The next step is her job.

Oracle hacked Arkham's surveillance to facilitate their operations, but the prison is currently controlled by common criminals.

"This is not normal," Tim and Weiwei said after they combined their thoughts. "All the common mentally ill criminals were released, but the abnormal criminals like Xiao Chou and Bain were selectively released."

"Did someone release the criminals on purpose?" They were squatting on the beams now. Weiwei used the vines just like Tim's hooks, and it was even more convenient because it was like a part of her body. "By the way, where are Dean Sharp and the others?"

"The criminals have put some prison guards in the cells so they can be used as hostages if they need to."

Weiwei was speechless for a while: "...They don't look like psychopaths at all."

"Psychopathic murderers," Tim stared directly down. "At least they look a lot like them when they're killing people, and they look a lot like them in court."

When contact is lost, Batman's coordinates are shown as underground, so they have to go underground.

It is not difficult to get rid of the criminals here. What makes Tim feel relieved is that GCPD is right behind them and the hostages can be rescued as quickly as possible. During this period, Vivi is trying her shooting skills. The skills of other character cards can be used, but they cannot be used interchangeably between character cards, so Vivi can ride a motorcycle, but Bella cannot use horse riding.

Her shooting skills have reached level 4. She has never practiced sniping techniques, but it is not difficult for her to hit a target at such a close distance.

"Desert Eagle?" Tim was shocked when he saw her take out such a weapon, because it was a very powerful gun that could smash the enemy's head with one shot. "If you shoot like that, your shoulder and elbow won't be able to withstand the recoil."

Vivi was stunned for a moment, then touched her shoulder in confusion. Her movements were actually the same as Bella's, but Bella could tell at a glance that she had trained and her movements were in line with her own abilities. Vivi, however, was imitating them, and her shooting was very accurate, but anyone who had practiced shooting could see that her movements put a heavy strain on her body.

——But she felt no pain.

If it were in the past, Weiwei would have just said that she was painless, but now she found that her identity as a player seemed to have caused a lot of misunderstandings among the NPCs, especially Mr. C's head, which was full of accusations - he was almost about to play the role of a vicious stepmother.

Considering that the person asking this question is a teammate, Weiwei said carefully:

"No one has taught me..." Indeed, no one. Her skill is that she will upgrade herself by catching criminals.

"Mr. C won't teach me..." This is nonsense, because the beautiful waste Mr. C himself can't do it either.

"I'm trying to figure it out on my own. Maybe it will get better if I try more?"

Fortunately, the enemies were unconscious and did not hear what she said.

Robin nodded, apparently accepting this statement, but what she didn't know was that Tim had a one-on-one communication with the Oracle when she turned around.

"Oracle" Barbara said: "She was injured, and she was injured every time she fired the gun, but her injuries were able to recover, so she didn't even feel that she was injured - can I guess that the gun was given to her by 'Mr. C'?"

"She made no secret of who got her special gadgets, and she herself, obviously, doesn't know any magic," Tim said, ending the call.

They went down one level again. This was the first level of Arkham Asylum. It was very quiet here, and they could still hear explosions coming from other places.

"They keep the patients on this floor, and the criminals are held underground..." Vivi and Tim hurried through the corridor, and she looked at the patients curiously as Tim explained.

She asked: "Arkham was at least half destroyed. Where will the escaped criminals be held?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, the members of parliament will propose that Warden Betty Wen take over. Blackgate Prison is not full yet."

"Bettivan..." In the room next to them, a man's eyes appeared in front of the window on the door and he said, "Bettivan... Is it Bella Bettivan?"

Tim subconsciously put Weiwei behind him and frowned, "Who are you?"

"Is it Bella Betivin... Bella Betivin, huh..." The man repeated this sentence, walked back to his bed, sat at the head of the bed and kept muttering this sentence.

He has a separate room on the first floor and he is a mental patient.

Tim scanned the ward's door number, memorized it, and said to Weiwei, "I have successfully unlocked the elevator. The material of this elevator allows it to stand up under missiles. Let's go down."

This elevator in Arkham leads directly to the special cells on the lower level, which are operated by an independent network. When the prisoners escaped before, they added a virus to this network - so they must invade Arkham.

The strange patient was just a small incident; this dungeon team had other problems that needed to be solved urgently.

A few minutes later, Tim stood at the door of the cell and said in a deep voice: "Scarecrow...he escaped too."

Vivi had heard about Scarecrow, the developer of fear gas, who dressed himself up as Scarecrow and used fear to throw Gotham into chaos, but before that could happen, Batman defeated him.

But he is not listed in the copy prompt. Is he a hidden BOSS?

The prisoners on this floor are all enemies who have been defeated by Batman. They are naturally familiar with Robin. Or rather, Robin's appearance makes them excited and they want to tear his head off.

— and then snapped the neck of the girl next to him.

But Tim didn't even raise an eyebrow. He walked to the front of the Scarecrow's cell, where a man in prison uniform was lying leisurely on the bed. Tim asked, "Nygma, who released the Scarecrow?"

The Riddler, Edward Nygma, likes to leave riddles and commit crimes. He is a guy who gives headaches to the whole of Gothan. He has high IQ and ability - but he is a criminal.

Lying on his back on the bed, the mystery teller glanced at the familiar Robin and his eyes fell on the girl's face.

The girl was looking at him with curiosity.

"Who—released Scarecrow, released Clowne, Bane, and Poison Ivy?" He tilted his head and smiled. "You have to solve my riddle, Batman's bird."

"Something that comes out at night, attacks humans, makes sharp noises, and says—" he gestured, "'I am revenge, I am the night, I . . . '"

"I'm Batman," the voice said from behind them. "Stop your silly jokes, Nygma. You saw who freed Scarecrow - now, tell me the answer."

The Riddler looked at the suddenly appearing Batman, and his smile became even more exaggerated: "I never tell people the answer, I only tell them the riddle."

It was a chaotic night familiar to the people of Gotan, and it seemed to happen once or twice every year.

This is what this city is like, this is what Gotam is like. It seems to be loved by all kinds of lunatics and perverts. It allows them to appear, so how can it be so cruel to let them disappear?

You have to accept the good side of this city along with the bad side.

The huge airship was suspended over the city of Gotam. It flew lower and lower, making people worry about when it would fall.

This was the advertising airship used by Glenn's company for promotional purposes, but now the pilot and other personnel on the airship were dead, blood was still oozing from the knife wounds on their necks, and the people who killed them were standing by the window with a crazy smile on their pale faces.

This person is naturally ugly.

The searchlight in front of the airship swept across a tall statue. Xiao Chou stared at the two pointed ears of the statue and the balloons on the ears, revealing an even weirder smile.

It was really interesting. After he had stayed in Arkham, peacefully and well-behaved, for more than half a month, the city had undergone such interesting changes.

His thoughts at this moment were the same as Vivi's when she hung the balloon, but he wanted to find more fun!

"Oh Pudding," Harley yelled her nickname for him, rushed to him and hugged his arms, "Damn Batman, damn, Batman--"

She stared at the statue outside the window and said viciously, "He's pointing his butt at my school!"

Xiao Chou pinched her funny face and laughed out loud.
