The Death Knell

Chapter 43 Thalia’s Secret

In addition, Thalia also has a little secret: she disobeyed Lei Xiaogu's order and interacted with Batgirl in private. She is the only member of the League of Assassins who can enter and leave Gotham freely as long as she is accompanied by Batgirl at all times.

Because Batgirl doesn't believe her.

She is a little different from Bliss. She believes that the strong are respected and fighting ability is the standard for everything.

Bliss believes that a person's faith and will are the criteria for measuring strength. Only those who overcome their own fears are truly strong.

Lei Xiaogu does not count because he is afraid of reality and this world; Talia does not count because she is afraid of her father; even Batwoman herself does not count because bats are the source of her fear.

For Batgirl, only Rigoletto and Deathstroke are considered strong because they are never afraid.

Even Scarecrow, who invented the fear gas, was so frightened that he cried for his father and mother after inhaling the poison gas, which made her dumbfounded. If she hadn't been wearing a bat costume at that time, she would have laughed so hard that she couldn't stand upright.

However, these differences did not prevent Thalia from going to her. Sometimes she would go to Midtown or Star City to complete a mission, and she always liked to drop by Gotham for a walk.

Although Lei Xiaogu said that Gotham is the cancer of the world and the dirtiest place, the destruction of the world must begin with the destruction of Gotham.

But she thinks Gotham isn't bad.

It's full of chaos and madness, with all kinds of masked lunatics always taking turns, making it feel like you're watching a play.

Living in a land of ice and snow where there is no grass for a long time is boring. She prefers to be lively.

As long as she arrives in Gotham and walks around places like the Wayne Tower or the rooftop of the police station, Batgirl will quietly appear next to her, staring at her with cold and suspicious eyes, monitoring her, and preventing She's causing trouble in Gotham.

Thalia likes this. Anyway, she just talks to the bat about the current situation, how many people she has killed recently, and asks if the lunatics have performed recently, and then she will leave quickly.

Ever since Thalia lost to Batgirl in their first fight, she has been very interested in this powerful masked man, and unilaterally considered Bliss to be her friend.

Because Batgirl defeated her but didn't kill her, which seemed incredible to Thalia.

If you don't intend to kill, why fight? Isn't it good to kill someone once and for all?

In fact, her understanding of Batgirl is far inferior to that of Jester. Jester said that bats are the same kind as her, which is absolutely correct.

Although Rigoletto kills people, she doesn't do it often because she prefers to see everyone's hearts filled with chaos and madness that she creates, and then everyone laughs loudly together.

The Bat never kills, because she wants the wicked to be filled with fear of her and fear of the Bat.

She would break the enemy's hands, feet or spine, and torture them in the most cruel way, causing them to be paralyzed in bed forever, letting fear torture them for life, just like fear tortured herself.

To live in fear forever is far crueler than to die and be freed.

Therefore, while Gordon and some people think that she is the heroine of Gotham, Bliss never thinks that she is, just because her actions are full of lynching meaning, in order to vent her fear through violent means.

Gotham is just her hunting ground, and she's just hunting evildoers.

This is probably why so many masked men went to Gotham, because they discovered the similarities between Batgirl and themselves.

Bliss's tactic worked well at first, but then it turned sour.

Because the Rigoletto appeared, this lunatic appeared out of nowhere. Even though Bliss beat her until all her bones were deformed, she still shouted happily and laughed non-stop, as if Bliss had made her very happy. Just as comfortable.

The next time it happened, the injury that would have left her paralyzed or disabled would somehow have already recovered, and she could continue to play new games with bats.

In addition, more and more people with medical backgrounds are gathering in Gotham. Even if the bat breaks their fingers to prevent them from treating themselves, they are always willing to help each other and continue the game.

For example, Silence, she was Bliss's friend when she was a child, and her family is also an old friend. When she grew up, she became a madman, but she was still a super authority in medicine. She could operate on herself, with only a knife and no mirror.

Batgirl has maimed her countless times, and the next time she appears she is still alive and kicking.

Dr. Hugo, Pig Face, Mr. Freeze, Scarecrow, etc. are all biological or medical experts who can cure any injuries caused by bats.

Not to mention there is the Court of Owls in the dark. They will provide medical aid to the evildoers in order to keep the world in peace.

This caused the legend to spread in the city that Batman was suffering from Mary's disease, saying that she was a weak woman who could not even hurt an ant, but also allowed evil people to escape from prison and harm the citizens again and again, so she was not worthy of being called a heroine.

Batgirl will not change her original intention, because she just wants to make evil people afraid, so she still goes her own way, and there is no need to defend herself. She has never been a hero.

She just felt that she needed to update her fighting techniques. How could she maim someone and never recover?

There is no answer yet.

Not only her, but all the bats in other parallel worlds probably have this trouble. The old-fashioned fighting methods seem to be a bit outdated. It would be great if there was some kind of fighting skill that vaporizes part of the opponent's body with one punch. It would be best if The kind that can beat the opponent until only their brains are left and still survive.

In this way, the enemy will better understand fear, the fear that bats experienced when they were young but can never get rid of it...

Therefore, Thalia felt that Bats were actually cruel people just like her, but in different ways, and the citizens of Gotham were deceived by her. But Batgirl is always noncommittal, she doesn't seem to care what others think, and is always cold.

Thalia was left speechless by Bliss every time and returned to Nambadar in despair. But after a while, she would get bored and run to Gotham again.

Lei Xiaogu didn't notice her little secret, because from all aspects, Talia was no longer weak to him. Even if he hadn't been immortal, Talia could have succeeded as the leader of the second generation of demons.

Thalia can already be called a ninja master.

Sneaking, fighting, disguise, bow and arrow, she is proficient in all killing techniques, and as a ninja of the new era, she can also use hacking skills and various firearms, which is much better than Lei Xiaogu.

Although Lei Xiaogu felt that using firearms did not bring glory to warriors, assassins could only get paid by killing the target. If the target didn't care about glory, then he didn't have to speak about it.

Despite his personal demons regarding gender and Gotham, for the most part, he's a very competent leader of the organization.
