American Comics: BOSS Invasion

Black Panther agreed immediately, without even hesitating. For a street urchin, the ability to read people is essential for survival.

The man before him had been very clear, even listing the limitations beforehand. But the more upfront someone is, the more trustworthy they seem.

Black Panther didn't really care who his grandfather was, or whether he was dead or alive.

To survive in this city, he had long abandoned such fragile emotions. Otherwise, he'd be trapped in endless sorrow and starve to death.

To live, such feelings were a burden. But being clever, he didn't immediately reject the offer, even feigning sadness a few times to cater to Qi Shan.

Qi Shan naturally saw through it, but he didn't expose him. He only needed Black Panther himself; his inner thoughts were irrelevant.

Since taking on the role of a gentleman, cleaning up the scum of this city, he had a vague idea. He was destined to be a passerby.

No matter how long he stayed in this city, he couldn't change the overall storyline. Before Batman appeared, this city was synonymous with chaos and darkness. Even after Batman's arrival, the crime rate was still far higher than other cities, even leading to the emergence of many supervillains specifically targeting Batman.

These guys possessed extremely high intelligence, specifically targeting Batman. Each time, they caused massive destruction, and collateral damage was commonplace. Batman, however, would only capture them and send them to Arkham Asylum, as if afraid of harming them.

This led to these villains treating Arkham like a vacation home, periodically breaking out to wreak havoc, tormenting the city's civilians like韭菜 (leeks), being harvested again and again.

Yet, even so, they still had to be grateful to Batman. This world was too dangerous. Without these supervillains, there would be ordinary villains. In any case, it was unavoidable, so it was better to have a short period of peace, even if it was fleeting.

In short, Black Panther was Qi Shan's chosen Batman substitute. In this era before Bruce Wayne had fully matured, his parents' revenge had already been thoroughly carried out by the so-called Revenge Foundation. Unconfirmed statistics showed over a thousand deaths. For just two people, even if they were the famous Wayne couple, such a level of retribution was already excessive.

More importantly, the emergence of the Revenge Foundation gave Bruce Wayne a sense of security. He was no longer a child consumed by anger, no longer fixated on revenge, but instead turned his attention to a normal life. Although he still trained diligently under the butler's guidance, he wasn't as determined as he had been at the beginning.

Driving Black Panther back to his home, Qi Shan ignored his wariness and led him directly to the living room, opening the double-door refrigerator and walking inside.

Black Panther watched in astonishment as Qi Shan knocked on the bottom of the refrigerator. It turned out to be a space similar to an elevator. He slowly turned his head and gestured with his hand.

Black Panther hurriedly ran inside. The refrigerator door closed automatically, followed by the door at the back. The elevator door then closed.

Only when the elevator began to descend could Black Panther no longer hold back his questions: "Where is this place? What exactly do you want me to do? Don't forget, you promised to pay for my schooling and provide room and board until I graduate from college."

"You don't have to worry about that. I will definitely fulfill my promises. Even if I can't, I will leave you enough money before I leave.

Now that we're here, we can speak frankly!"

With a 'ding,' the elevator doors slowly opened, revealing a pure white office hall. People in various attire were coming and going, creating a lively scene, yet it was very quiet and orderly. Everyone behaved properly. Even when talking together, the volume wouldn't exceed fifty decibels!

Black Panther looked in astonishment, feeling like this was some high-end place.

"As you can see, this is the Bounty Hunter Guild under the Revenge Foundation, which is the main reason why the Revenge Foundation was able to make such a big splash in the music scene recently.

I can help your grandfather take revenge, but the prerequisite is that you must take action personally, and I can give you the power!"

Black Panther nodded, quickly following Qi Shan's footsteps, twisting his head left and right, feeling like his eyes weren't enough.

He had never imagined that there would be such a huge structure under Gotham.

What he didn't know was that the elevator had only descended about two floors. Further down was a mechanism composed of spirit particles, which directly extracted his soul from his body. Everything around him was actually constructed from spirit particles. Using spirit particles to create a barrier and build a large space in the basement was extremely simple for Qi Shan.

This had many advantages. First, it was not easily detected by various machines. At the same time, it didn't take up space. Using Shadow Technology, the space could even be extended indefinitely. In the realm of spirit particle technology, Newton's laws didn't apply.

This made the concealment almost perfect. Even if someone was tailing them, there wouldn't be any problems.

Anyone with malicious intent, even if they managed to rush into the teleportation elevator, would have their soul directly extracted in the next second, turning into the most primitive spirit particles and sent to the storage chamber, serving as raw materials for making various drugs. The corpse would then be directly removed.

The human body had many uses. Now that Alice's business was growing, she needed more spokespeople. The newly developed chip structure could already be created out of thin air by Qi Shan. By mass-producing this chip, Alice's clones could be created more and more, using the chip to control the central nervous system, making walking, sitting, eating, and speaking indistinguishable from normal people.

This was one of the reasons why Qi Shan believed that the Bounty Hunter Guild would eventually intimidate Gotham City.
