The Death Knell

The Talons have no self-awareness. They are all warriors controlled and frozen by hypnosis. When the Court of Owls needs them, they will be thawed and assigned tasks, most of which are assassination tasks.

After the task is completed, they will return to the Owl Maze and be frozen, waiting for the next awakening.

Maybe the sharp claw in front of Su Ming is an old man who is hundreds of years old, but he must not take them lightly.

They are transformed people, and their strength is even better than the assassins of the Shadow Dancer Alliance. They are brainwashed and instilled with ancestral claw fighting skills, and all of them are cold weapon experts.

And given that their leaders are all Gotham nobles and have no sense of honor in their hearts, all their weapons are poisonous enough to seal their throats upon seeing blood.

Ordinary people are unlikely to be spared when encountering sharp claws.

When they disguise themselves as someone else, they can easily imitate anyone's look and voice, acting so vividly that they are hard to detect. In the talon state, it seldom talks, preferring to make ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh sounds, which is pretending to be an owl.

Their number is always maintained at 100, of which 99 are ordinary claws, and there is also a carefully cultivated Claw Zero, which is the most powerful.

Some ordinary claws are replenished every year to replace those that were severely damaged in previous missions. The Court of Owls will select children or young people with potential and trick them into accepting brainwashing rituals to make up the number.

The one Su Ming must keep now looks like an ordinary sharp claw, but if she is allowed to fly away to report the news, things may become as bad as he imagined before.

As soon as she returns to the Owl Maze, the Court of Owls will know what's going on here.

He must let her come down to fight with him and take the opportunity to kill her. Provoking them is a more reasonable choice. As for how to provoke the claws, Su Ming has a guess...

"The Court of Owls eat shit!" he suddenly yelled, and pointed his middle fingers at Talon.

Cindy covered her face, while the other three looked at each other, what are they doing?

"Eat, eat, eat... shit, shit..." The echo spread his words back and forth among the ruins of the car, and the sound of wind and rain could not stop the insulting words from reaching the ears of Sharp Claw.

The sharp claws that were fluttering about to fly at a high place paused, and turned their gaze back to the figure below.

Yes, they are the assassin tools of the nobles, and it doesn't matter how the tools themselves are insulted. The nobles themselves are different, so one of the hypnotic instructions of Talon is to always obey the orders of the Court of Owls and maintain the prestige of the Court of Owls.

Su Ming's behavior directly touched this order.

"Allegiance to the court!"

A black shadow swooped directly towards Su Ming, and the strong wind made Sharp Claw's cloak whistle, and she seemed to merge with the rain falling from the sky.

Su Ming was not proud of achieving his first goal. He would only breathe a sigh of relief after completely eliminating the enemy, but he must always remain vigilant.

"Swish!"

Two bright white lights with black in them flashed across his eyes. These were the finger cots on the clawed hands. They were extremely sharp and quenched with poison. This was the attack method of tearing the target's neck.

Just like when an owl catches a mouse, it always breaks its neck first and then takes out its internal organs.

Su Ming dodged nimbly, knocked the finger cot aside with the knife in his hand, and wiped out a spark.

Then he moved his steps, turning to Talon's side, keeping his distance. At the same time, she made a note in her heart.

‘He is good at claw skills and likes to tear people’s necks and bellies, which is consistent with the comics. "

Because the hood structure of the claws is fully enclosed, and the thick round glasses are like a telescope in front of their eyes, he guessed that their field of vision will be limited.

Although Deathstroke is missing one eye, he can rely on the memory and calculation power of his brain to make up for the surrounding environment, and is the least affected by the helmet.

So now Su Ming chose to stand to her side, testing whether the opponent had any blind spots.

He planned to take this opportunity to find her weaknesses, so that when he might face multiple claws attacking at the same time in the future, he would be more relaxed.

Sure enough, the sharp claws were like those of an owl. The body did not move, but the neck and head turned at a strange angle. This confirmed Su Ming's hypothesis and made another note in his mind.

Everything was very quiet, and the rain seemed to have slowed down, falling slowly from the sky. The scarlet single eye and the round lenses looked at each other across the air.

Immediately afterwards, Su Ming suddenly rose up, slashing vertically and horizontally with two knives, attacking the claws.

She did a backflip and nimbly dodged the two knives, and then immediately rushed forward, pulling out two long daggers from her waist and fighting with Su Ming.

"Dang Dang Dang Dang!!!"

The sound of metal colliding continuously came from between the two people, and sparks flew out for a while. The rainwater was thrown into strings of pearls by the arms and bodies of the two people, and hit the surrounding abandoned cars.

Their feet were constantly moving, but the lower part of the claws was relatively empty, and there were very few attacks on the legs. However, she always used the uniform on her body to perform short-distance gliding movements, which was very flexible.

Su Ming wrote down the strengths and weaknesses of the claw one by one.

"Excellent weapons, quenching poison, and quick movements, but weak strength, very light equipment, and almost no protective capabilities."

He switched out the shotgun again and fired at close range, but was also dodged. Even when he was about to touch the handle of the gun, the opponent began to fly sideways, preparing to dodge.

.....................

In fact, the battle process was completely under Su Ming's control. After a few exchanges, he discovered that the claw was not as strong as in the comics in the main world.

He could keep her immediately, but he could also collect information about the other party without letting her run away.

Facing an all-around warrior like Deathstroke, with her rich experience and superhuman physical fitness, she had no chance.

Su Ming took the opportunity to try out almost all the weapons on his body, and even took out the rope and hook used to climb the house to fight her with a few moves.

After a minute, he finished gathering the information.

From now on, the Claw Assassin of Earth Minus 11 will have no secrets or trump cards for him...

The rain fell faster, and Su Ming flicked her claws away, but she had no intention of running away.

They are all enhanced people, and they also have long breaths. During the fight, hundreds of times, no one was out of breath. However, Su Ming had already obtained what he wanted, and his brain had automatically listed the best solution based on the information obtained.

"it's over!"

He pulled out the dagger and no longer avoided the attack of the claws. He just twisted his body slightly to let her dagger pass through his side, and he took his own dagger and crashed into the arms of the claws.

"Chi..." It was like the sound of a basketball being deflated.

The moment the sound rang out, he suddenly pulled the dagger with his backhand. A big hole was opened in Talon's chest, and his heart was split in two, divided into upper and lower halves.

The blood spurted out, like a small red fountain, which was extremely beautiful. In the blood and rain, the sharp claw slowly fell to the ground, splashing dirty mud.

An obvious white mark appeared on the mail armor on Su Ming's side, but this attack did not break his defense. Everything was carefully calculated, from the force angle to the pressure per unit area of ​​the armor, from friction to From force to weather influence, from the other party's behavior to possible reactions...

Under the instinct of the body and the calculation of the brain, Su Ming achieved his goal perfectly.

It was an expected victory.

But he was still waiting for the last thing that needed to be confirmed. He wiped the dagger on the corpse, put it into its sheath, and stared at the wound and internal organs of the corpse carefully, without taking his eyes off it.

A few minutes later, he took out a grenade and stuffed it into the chest of the corpse, pulled the fuse, and walked towards Cindy and the others without looking back.

"boom!!!"

Broken limbs and broken arms were flying everywhere. The hands and feet might be relatively intact, but at least on a dark night like today, the Court of Owls couldn't even think of putting the bodies together.

He also got the answer to his last question. On Earth Minus 11, the Court of Owls did not have amber gold.
