The Death Knell

Of course, Su Ming also knew that the struggle for power was always like this, and it was not a problem that could be solved in one or two sentences, but he had another idea, a less upright idea.

Qi Xia is the illegitimate son of Zeus, half human and half god. He is the next generation successor of Amazon and is very valued by Amazon.

The Sea Queen is the current king of Atlantis and the successor of Poseidon, the god of the sea. Her bloodline is a mixture of underwater people and humans. She possesses a trident that represents divine power, and her ruling position is also very solid.

Both parties are fighting for the dominance of the earth. If they want to choose a ruler through war, Su Ming will give them one.

In fact, humans knew what to do in the Middle Ages, but these demigods were just arrogant.

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

More than two hours later, Barry's wounds recovered, and Su Ming and Bliss took human transportation again and returned to Gotham.

From a distance, you can see the chaos in Gotham City. The most luxurious Bowers Hotel in the city is burning like a torch. Even heavy rain cannot extinguish the terrible fire. Thick smoke mixes into the night and rises into the sky. .

Bliss stared at Su Ming with an expressionless face. Did she agree that it wouldn't have much impact?

Su Ming shrugged. He wouldn't admit it anyway. Cindy said that she would make all these accidents, so accidental fires are not bad now.

"Go back to the Batcave..."

She let out a breath, feeling a little tight in her chest.

Barry glanced at Su Ming helplessly, meaning, look, what are you doing?

Su Ming turned around and whistled. Anyway, I didn’t know anything.

Back in the Batcave, the three of them found Alfred bandaging Cindy's wounds. Her armor was taken off to one side, and she was only wearing a vest and shorts. Her eyes were completely red, as if she was suppressing her self-healing factor. Come on crazy.

"Ah, miss, you are back, is everything going well?"

Ah Fu turned to look at the three of them, showing a decent smile, but the movements of his hands did not stop, and he was still suturing the wounds and applying medicine.

"It's okay, what's wrong here?" Bliss took off her helmet and sighed, but she was a little surprised that Cindy was also injured.

Without waiting for Ah Fu to answer, Cindy spoke up herself: "It's Claw Zero. It's really difficult to deal with. There is almost no tactical room. Time is urgent and the only choice is to exchange injuries for injuries."

Ah Fu added next to him: "Yes, that monster is well-equipped and has superb martial arts skills. Not only can the weapons break through Miss Cindy's armor, but they are also highly poisonous."

Su Ming glanced at Bliss. Did she arrange for Ah Fu to follow Cindy? It seems that he was well prepared.

Claw Zero has been solved. It seems that Gotham's Court of Owls is no longer a problem for the time being. At least the people who were easier to find out are dead. Su Ming will give them a big scapegoat in the near future. Don't even think about causing trouble in this life. .

However, he was somewhat curious about weapons that could destroy the icon's armor.

Ah Fu obviously also took back the opponent's weapon and placed it on the workbench aside, which looked very inconspicuous. The whole thing is made of light yellow metal and has been matte treated. A small owl head is engraved on the handle guard.

The metal was very familiar. It turned out to be two daggers made of promethium. He picked up one to replace the original ordinary dagger, and left the other one for Cindy.

"What should we do next?" Barry asked Su Ming. Whenever he had free time, he would always find something to eat and stuff it into his mouth, and Ah Fu had already prepared it.

"How is your geography?" Su Ming asked him this question. He took off his helmet, lit a cigarette, and took a long drag.

Barry was confused. After swallowing the meatloaf in his mouth, he scratched his head: "...okay? In fact, in addition to forensics, I am also good at sign language, web design and orangutan language. .”

"As a member of the Justice League, have you been to Paradise Island and Poseidonius?" Su Ming asked again. At this time, Alfred had already taken out the prepared ashtray and placed it next to him.

"Well, although it's not many times, you know, partners always have to interact with each other more often, and I happen to interact very quickly."

Barry smiled his innocent smile again, almost shyly, and unconsciously twirled the remaining half of the burger between his fingers.

Su Ming looked down at the transparent ashtray and realized that it seemed to be made of natural crystal instead of glass. He was really a corrupt capitalist tycoon. He flicked the ashtray into it unceremoniously.

"So what about Dinosaur Island? The Hawkgirls of this generation should have taken you there. There is their outpost there in the main world."

"Well, in comparison, I think Dinosaur Island is much better than Orangutan Island. Although the residents all eat humans, at least none of the dinosaurs can control their minds."

Barry obviously recalled some bad memories and frowned. He did not learn the orangutan language voluntarily.

"That's enough. We kidnap Qi Xia and Sea Queen and throw them to Dinosaur Island first." Su Ming said his plan, but there are still some details in this matter that require help from others.

The Strange Man can fly and the Sea Queen can swim. Even if the Dinosaur Island is obscured by mysterious power and cannot be explored, it cannot trap them. Their super powers must be abolished through some means.

Both technology and magic should be possible, but it is definitely too late to engage in scientific research now. Only magic is more reliable.

There are many magicians in DC, but there are only villains on Earth - 11, so Su Ming has an idea of ​​who to go to. If he wants to deprive a demigod of his divine power, he must find someone who understands divine power.

The witch Circe is a good candidate. She is the child of the first-generation sun god Helius and the sea god's daughter Perse. She has been fighting against the Amazons for thousands of years.

She is good at all kinds of witchcraft and black magic, and can easily turn people into animals such as frogs. Petrification and mind control are very dangerous for ordinary people. She has taken away Wonder Woman's divine power countless times, and she also Turned her into mud and killed her once.

But there is a problem, she is too strong, too strong to negotiate, and she hates men extremely much in the main world, let alone in this world. She is immortal, and destroying her body cannot destroy her.

Fortunately, Su Ming knew Circe's weaknesses.

First of all, her witchcraft is ineffective against the gods' exorcism spells, that is, she cannot turn gods into small animals; secondly, she is afraid of an herb called Moly, the so-called white flower and black root in Greek mythology. Magic grass. Legend has it that Hermes gave this grass to Odysseus to invalidate the spell of the witch Circe. This is her origin story and her most fundamental weakness.

As long as Su Ming and the others eat this herb, it can resist witchcraft for a long time. Although it sounds like a very magical thing, if you put your mind to it, it is not much at all. The scientific name of Molu is Snowdrop, which is a type of narcissus. Its origin is the Mediterranean. In modern society, it can be purchased in almost all flower markets around the world.

Gotham City is no exception. A pot of flowers may be worth dozens of dollars, but as a weapon, it is very cheap.
