Chapter 275 Bruce is threatened

Starting from Bruce's father, Thomas Wayne, the Wayne family has begun to focus on the ordinary residents of Gotham, hoping to harness the power of the Wayne Group to make Gotham residents live a better life.

The idea is good, and the Wayne family has indeed done many livelihood projects that are completely unprofitable.

But Gotham's residents didn't thank the Wayne family in particular.

This is not because the residents of Gotham are ungrateful, but because the Wayne family is too wealthy.

How to say?

There is a saying in Gotham that the Wayne family is the real owner of Gotham!

Although the Wayne family does not have the ambition to completely control Gotham, it cannot stop the popularity of conspiracy theories.

Especially after the Wayne family began to get involved in unprofitable livelihood projects.

When Thomas Wayne controlled the Wayne Group, although most residents of Gotham did not like the Wayne family, at least they did not reject the Wayne family too much and could only be regarded as indifferent.

But in Bruce's generation, the situation has changed.

In order to prevent others from associating himself with Batman, Bruce deliberately disguised himself as a playboy who did not understand the sufferings of the world, and used various occasions to show his bohemianness.

For ordinary people, the most annoying thing is the rich second generation.

In Gotham, Bruce is the most flamboyant and richest second-generation rich man.

The residents of Gotham can accept an ordinary person disguised as Batman to protect them, but it is difficult for them to accept that they are being secretly protected by a bohemian rich second generation.

If only the residents of Gotham knew that Batman is Bruce.

Not only will they not be grateful to Bruce, they will even lose confidence in Batman.

It's difficult to build trust.

But if you want to destroy trust, all you need is a suitable opportunity.

Although Bruce has many plans to deal with the speculation that "Bruce is Batman".

But in the plan he prepared, there was no plan for him to take the initiative to reveal his identity.

"Mr. Wayne, you don't have much time left to think!"

Lars' right hand exerted slight force, causing the tip of the katana to pierce Alfred's skin, causing a trace of blood to flow out.

Although the tip of the samurai sword had pierced his own skin, Alfred, who was stepped on by Lars, looked at Bruce with a kind face as if he didn't feel any pain.

Alfred said nothing.

However, after seeing the kind expression on his face, Bruce immediately had a bad premonition.

Alfred is indeed a butler, but from another perspective, Alfred is no different from Bruce's father.

After his parents died, it was Alfred who took care of Bruce when he grew up.

If there is anyone who knows Bruce best in the world, it must be Alfred.

"don't want!"

After seeing Alfred's look, Bruce shook his head and said to him.

Bruce already guessed what Alfred was going to do.

Alfred showed a happy smile, grabbed the katana with both hands, and planned to let the katana pierce his heart directly.

Although Alfred no longer has the strength he had when he was young, he can still do it if he wants to die.

Lars did not expect that Alfred would be so loyal to the Wayne family.

He would rather give up his life than let Bruce be threatened.

An accident is an accident, and Lars' reaction was not slow.

Alfred had just pulled the katana downwards to stab Lars' right hand with force.

laugh!

The sharp katana instantly cut through Alfred's palm and escaped Alfred's control.

After withdrawing the katana, Lars kicked Alfred with his right foot, causing Alfred to change from lying down to lying down.

Then, he stepped on Alfred with his right foot again and pressed the blood-stained katana against his back.

"Mr. Wayne, your butler is not very obedient!"

"If you can't decide, Mr. Wayne, then let me decide for you."

Lars ignored Alfred and said to Bruce.

Looking at Alfred bleeding profusely, Bruce said nothing and stretched his hands to his helmet, intending to automatically announce that he was Batman as Lars said.

Just when he was about to take off his helmet, Roy's voice came from outside.

"Your efficiency is not good."

"Can't you deal with all the defeated generals you once had?"

Roy said as he walked in from outside the study.

After sensing the vitality of Lars, Alfred, and Bruce all appearing in the study, he knew that Bruce would most likely be manipulated by Lars.

Not to mention that the hostage is Alfred, who has taken care of him since childhood, even if it is an unknown stranger, Bruce will be led by Lars.

Why are superheroes always led by supervillains?

This is not because super villains are stronger than superheroes, but because super villains never follow the rules, while superheroes have various concerns.

So Roy never planned to be a superhero.

After hearing Roy's words, Bruce stopped what he was doing and turned to look at Roy.

For some reason, the moment he heard Roy's voice, he suddenly relaxed and no longer worried that Alfred would be killed by Lars.

Like Bruce, Lars's eyes were also focused on Roy.

Although he didn't know Roy as well as Bruce, he knew who Roy was.

In other words, he knew that the Falcone family was destroyed by Roy.

What he didn't expect was why Roy would appear here.

After entering the study, Roy quickly looked at Alfred on the ground and Lars holding a samurai sword, and immediately understood the situation at the scene.

"Leave him to me."

Roy said to Bruce.

"good!"

Bruce replied immediately without any hesitation.

"You are 'Ninja Master' Lars, right?"

"Although I don't know where you get the confidence, you actually think you can destroy Gotham in a week."

"However, one thing I am sure of is that I don't like you at all."

"Seeing as you are Grandpa Damian, I will give you a personal suggestion."

"Let Afu go and go back to the headquarters of the Shadow Warrior Alliance."

"If you cooperate well, I can spare your life and let you leave here alive."

Roy said to Lars.

What?

After hearing Roy's words, Lars' first reaction was that Roy was crazy.

He admitted that Roy did have some abilities.

But he didn't think Roy would be his opponent.

Wasn't it just the destruction of the Falcone family and the Court of Owls?

Nothing amazing!

Lars didn't speak, but the look in his eyes at Roy gave him the answer.

That's a disdainful look at an idiot!

"It seems that you don't really accept my proposal. In that case, don't waste everyone's time."

After speaking, Roy raised his right hand and lightly snapped his fingers.

With the sound of snapping fingers, Lars immediately realized something was wrong.

This is?

Lars, who had been full of disdain just now, suddenly showed an expression of disbelief.

Mind control!

Roy didn't use any fancy abilities, he just used mind control to immobilize Lars.

After discovering that the power of the stars can be transformed into the power of the mind, he became more and more interested in the superpower of mind control.

Whether it is used to deal with opponents whose strength is far inferior to one's own, or used to fight against beings whose strength is similar to one's own, mind control is a very useful super power.

His mastery of mind control is definitely not as strong as Professor X's.

But compared with Professor X, he has an advantage that cannot be ignored.

That means his body is stronger!

Professor X's body is his greatest weakness.

Once he encounters an enemy who is immune to mind control, or is approached by an enemy, Professor X will be in danger.

But Roy won't.

In other words, he hopes that the enemy will take the initiative to come to him and die.

After settling Lars, Roy said calmly:

"Having lived for hundreds of years, you should have been more cautious."

"It's a pity that you didn't do this."

Under Roy's control, Lars raised his right foot that was stepping on Alfred, and put the katana in front of his neck, looking as if he was about to kill himself.

Roy did not completely cut off Lars's sense of the outside world, but forcibly deprived him of body control so that he could clearly see and feel what he was doing.

Bruce quickly stepped forward and helped Alfred, whose hands were injured.

Then, he said to Roy:

"What are you going to do with him?"

"What else can I do? Just kill him."

Roy replied.

Bruce hesitated for a few seconds, but finally said nothing and nodded silently.

If there were other options, he didn't want Roy to kill Lars.

But it is obvious that Lars is not the kind of person who will be tried by the law.

After seeing Bruce's response, Roy snapped his fingers again.

The next second, the invisible and colorless fire of the stars completely enveloped Lars.

He didn't torture Lars on purpose.

In just a blink of an eye, Lars was burned into nothingness by the fire of the stars, leaving nothing behind.

Not only Lars, but also the katana in his hand vaporized and disappeared under the high temperature of the star fire.

Too bad!

He forgot to check the specific location of "Lazarus Pool" from his mind!

When Lars was burned into nothingness by the fire of the stars, Roy realized that he had forgotten to check Lars' memory in advance.

Although the one in the Lazarus Pool is also an inferior version of the Dionysian factor.

But no matter how inferior it is, it still has the Dionysian factor.

Neglected!

It shouldn’t be!

Roy shook his head with regret on his face.

Bruce and Alfred didn't know Roy's true thoughts. After seeing his expression, they thought he was regretting Lars' death.

"All the other assassins in the manor have been killed by me. Bruce, do you plan to stay and deal with the aftermath with Alfred, or do you want to go back to the apartment with Damian with me?"

Roy asked Bruce.

Although there was an episode when Lars and others invaded Wayne Manor, he would not forget that Damian was still in the apartment.

Compared with Lars, he is more interested in Damian.

Because in addition to being Bruce's son, Damian is also the fifth generation Robin in the comics.

However, in this universe, Damian is likely to become the first Robin.

Neither Robin nor anyone else in the Bat Family has appeared yet.

"I'll go back to the apartment with you."

After taking a look at Alfred's injury, Bruce immediately replied.

Although Alfred's body was now stained with a lot of blood, his injuries were not serious.

"Okay, Thalia should be back in the apartment now."

After saying that, Roy created the star portal to the apartment in front of Bruce and Alfred.

When the star portal was formed, he took the lead and walked in.

Bruce nodded towards Alfred and followed Roy into the star portal.

apartment.

When Bruce followed him, Roy directly deactivated the star portal.

Although they left for a while, Damian did not run away, but stayed in the living room of the apartment honestly.

To be precise, he stayed in the living room of the apartment with his mother Thalia.

After seeing Thalia, who was wearing casual clothes and sitting next to Damian, Bruce's expression suddenly became a little complicated.

Although he never saw Thalia again after leaving the Shadow Warrior Alliance.

But that doesn't mean he has completely forgotten Thalia.

Even though Bruce usually looks like a bohemian playboy.

In fact, he is a very emotional person.

However, not everyone can be taken to heart by him.

Looking at Thalia, who was no longer young, Bruce said slowly:

"Long time no see, how are you... doing?"

Although this is a very common question, at this time, it is somewhat inappropriate.

"What do you think?"

Thalia asked rhetorically.

Forehead……

After hearing Thalia's answer, Bruce was silent for a moment.

After seeing that Bruce didn't know how to reply, Roy sighed helplessly.

Meeting an old lover again is the most troublesome thing!

When Bruce was silent, Roy said:

"Lars just led people from the Shadow Warrior Alliance to invade Wayne Manor. Bruce and I went back to deal with it."

"Whether it was Lars or anyone else, they have all been killed by me."

"If you don't want to stay in Gotham, you can go back and take over the Shadow Warriors Alliance immediately."

What?

After hearing Roy's words, Damian and Thalia frowned at the same time.

Although Lars is their father and grandfather, they don't like Lars very much.

In addition, they know very well what kind of strength Lars has.

It was hard for them to imagine that Roy and Bruce only left for a short time and then killed Lars.

"Are you sure he is really dead?"

"Does he have the ability to rise from the dead?"

Damian asked immediately.

"I know that he has been immersed in the Lazarus Pool and has a self-healing ability that is far beyond ordinary people. He can even be resurrected to a certain extent."

"But I'm pretty sure that he is too dead now."

Roy said with certainty.

Not to mention that what was in the Lazarus Pool was just an inferior version of the Dionysian factor. Even if it was the purest version of the Dionysian factor, Lars would never be able to survive after being burned into nothingness by the fire of the stars.

It is true that the Dionysian factor does not abide by scientific laws, but his constellation fire is even less reasonable.
