The Devil Gang did not have much influence in Central City. This place had no port and was completely inland. It did not meet the needs of The Devil Gang's current mainstream business base. Therefore, there was only a branch here, and its existence was only to take care of the unconscious Sergues and Kevin. Naturally, it was impossible to put too many resources here.
Therefore, in Central City, The Devil Gang was not the number one force in terms of strength. However, the real bosses here were very clear about the origin of The Devil Gang and the things they did in Gotham. The big scenes of the first and second Bloody Night were enough to scare any gangster who heard about it. Even the most stubborn ones had to admit that The Devil Gang had a transcendent status in Central City.
Of course, this was also because The Devil Gang's branch was very peaceful here. They did not intervene in any business at all. No one did a better job than these guys.
The next morning, Saber had just opened his eyes after a short rest. The energy that came from inside his body gave him a different feeling. In the past few years, his Devour Instinct was almost in a half-useless state. Stryker's crazy experiments almost destroyed him, but when this dormant beast was reawakened, it showed even more terrifying potential.
"This is the energy of Domumu …"
Saber rubbed his shoulders. "How far can you go? I'm really curious. "
Of course, the current Devour Instinct had almost no other effect except to help him maintain the balance of the dark energy in his body. However, Saber believed that this ability he was born with would never let him down in the future.
This was Saber Hawk's ability. If it was too weak, wouldn't it be embarrassing?
"Boss, a girl wants to see you!"
Saber opened the door and saw Lewis standing at the door. After hearing Lewis' report, Saber frowned.
"A girl? I don't remember knowing any girl in Central City … Did you ask her name? "
"She said an old friend wants to see you. His name is Barry Allen …"
Lewis scratched his head and said with some confusion, "Boss, why haven't I heard of this person before?"
"Of course you haven't heard of her. She's a real old friend. Call her in. I'll wait for her in the living room."
Saber walked into the bathroom in his pajamas. Ten minutes later, he walked into the living room with a cigarette in his mouth. Felicity, who had changed her clothes, had been waiting for him.
Saber sat on the sofa, and a sweet-looking waitress served him breakfast. The beauty even gave Saber her most charming smile, but was ignored by Saber. The big boss seemed to be more interested in the food in front of him than in her. This made the waitress a little unwilling, but she had to turn around and leave.
"Good morning, girl. Have you eaten?"
Saber picked up a piece of steak with a fork and put it in his mouth. He looked up at Felicity, who nodded as if she wanted to say something. Saber waved his hand.
"Say what you want to say. I'm listening. Especially about Barry. I haven't seen him for five years. Did he find what he was looking for?"
"No."
Felicity shook her head sadly. "He's been all over America. Other than you, he found nothing."
"Yes, of course."
Saber took a sip of milk and said without a change in his expression.
"People who don't belong to that world are always separated from us. Those" superheroes "who jump out from the darkness to show their existence are just people on the edge of this world. As an ordinary person, he has to live an ordinary life. Any attempt to cross the line, any crazy pursuit of the dark truth will hurt him or even put him in danger. Getting nothing is the best result."
"But it's not fair to him!"
Felicity sensed a hint of unease from Saber's indifference. She pushed her glasses up and said calmly, "He has sacrificed so much. He deserves something, even if it's just the most illusory hope."
"Well said!"
Saber picked up a piece of bread and slowly spread butter on it. Then, he stuffed it into his mouth. "You think it's unfair to him, but what does it have to do with me? Does he have to reap what he has sacrificed? Girl, you're too naive. "
"In this world, hard work doesn't always lead to rewards. Hard work and rewards are two completely unrelated things …"
"Alright, I'm tired of this philosophical discussion. My time is precious. Girl, just tell me, what do you want to do here?" Seiber tapped his finger on the table and said, "Alright, I'm tired of this philosophical discussion. My time is precious.
Felicity found that she couldn't control the rhythm of the conversation at all, let alone take the initiative. Sitting in front of her was a real leader, a leader who could topple a city in an instant with a single word. As long as he wanted, he could even start a war anywhere in America. Facing such a person, Felicity had no cards in her hands, so she could only push up her glasses and speak directly.
"I hope you can go see him and help him. Even if he's unconscious now, I'm sure you have a way."
"Oh?"
Saber shrugged and chewed the last piece of egg in his mouth. After a while, he said, "It's a simple request.
"It's a simple request, and it doesn't seem to be a waste of time. Besides, I can indeed communicate with unconscious people. So, there's only one problem left. My Felicity, as long as you can solve this problem, I'll immediately go with you."
"Okay!"
The blonde girl clenched her fist and waved it in the air. Her face was filled with the joy of victory. She said in a joyful tone.
"Please say it, as long as it's within my power!"
"Hmm, this question is …"
Saber spread out his hands and leaned back on the sofa. He looked at Felicity playfully. "Why would I do that?"
Felicity's expression froze. Seiber tilted his head to the side.
"Don't you understand? Then I'll say it again. Why would I go with you to Little Barry? I don't think I'll have a second chance with him. He's just an ordinary person, isn't he? "
"You … you promised me just now!"
Felicity seemed to feel that she had been deceived. Her face turned red, and she looked like she was going to punch Saber in the face. However, her instincts prevented her from doing so. Saber scratched his head.
"Wait, did I promise you that? Wasn't it only after you convinced me that I would go with you? "
He crossed his legs and took out a cigar from his pocket. He put it in his mouth. A black flame danced and lit up the cigar. A rich aroma filled the air and covered Saber's face. His voice was a little muffled.
"The reason is very important. If I go there, it means that I'm bringing someone I know into this terrible world. I have to be responsible for him, don't I? Can you give me this reason? Felicity, can you be responsible for Barry Allen's fate and his life after that? "
Felicity was silent. Saber spread out his hands.
"See, you can't make this decision. So, go back and live your own lives. Don't try to cross this taboo line again. The existence behind this door is something you can't imagine and can't accept."
"But that's what he's been pursuing for twenty years. I can't give up just like that. You are the closest point we have to the truth."
A pleading look appeared on Felicity's face. "I don't want to say this word, but please, Barry might not wake up. I think you should fulfill his last request and let him know that everything that he has been pursuing is not imaginary."
"The problem is, I've told him all this five years ago."
Saber rejected her coldly. "I told him five years ago that there are anomalies in this world. His father has nothing to do with his mother's death. His father is innocent. What he saw when he was young was real. What else do you want me to do? Do you want me to repeat it in his ear? "
"Go, Felicity. Leave this place and never come back. I'm not cruel. This is the greatest kindness I can give to you, the people who have crossed paths with me."
Seiber stood up and walked into the room. Just as he was about to disappear, Felicity clenched her fists and whispered, "Don't worry.
"Saber Hawk, potential target of S.H.I.E.L.D., threat index S, good at frontal combat, great strength and threat. At the same time, he has soul attack characteristics, super self-healing, top tactical thinking. Other abilities are unknown. Extremely dangerous. Not recommended for agents below Level 9 to fight alone. Level 8 and above agents can use attack tactics. Affiliation: Gotham, The Devil Gang."
"S.H.I.E.L.D. has also found an important person, codenamed 'Captain'! Their plan is very clear. This person has to take on many targets, and one of them is your name, Saber Hawk! S.H.I.E.L.D.'s laboratory is also restarting the 'Super Soldier' project. One of the goals of the project is to eliminate The Devil Gang's illegal occupation of Gotham at some point in the future. They will expel you and even secretly execute you! "
"I have a lot of useful information for you. As long as you promise me, I'll give it all to you!"
"Hum …"
Saber's figure disappeared from the spot like black smoke. When he reappeared, he was standing in front of Felicity. The distance between the two was less than one meter. The beautiful girl's body was lifted from the ground by dark energy visible to the naked eye. Saber looked at her. His eyes had turned dark red, and a ring of magma-like flames danced in his eyes.
Just by looking into those eyes, Felicity's soul shook. In her panic, she felt as if she could hear the voice from hell.
"You shouldn't know this …"
Saber stared at Felicity, and his voice became hoarse and low. "It seems that I underestimated you, beautiful girl. Now tell me, who are you!"
Felicity suddenly calmed down when she realized that she had made the right move. She imitated Seiber's casual tone and said softly, "I'm sorry, but I'm sorry, but I'm sorry, but I'm sorry.
"I'm just an ordinary computer database administrator. I'm the project leader of Quinn Group's logistics department."
"Of course, maybe in the gray area of your world, I have another identity …"
Her beautiful eyes flashed with pride. "I'm a hacker, one of the best in the world. I've been paying attention to SHIELD's database for a long time, and they haven't found any abnormalities in the data yet. By the way, after learning about your identity from Barry, I've been paying attention to you. You're very good, Saber. You're a real superhero, although occasionally violent."
"I'm very good?"
Saber rubbed his eyes and let out a low laugh. "Haha, little girl, you don't seem to realize who you're talking to. You know, words are the weakest thing. I don't believe in explanations, but souls don't lie. Pray that you haven't done a single evil thing in your short life. Otherwise, your family will have to receive an obituary."
He stretched out his hands and gently fixed Felicity's head. He took off the glasses and looked at Felicity, who became flustered and began to struggle. He sighed and ran his fingers across her face.
"What a beautiful piece of art. But why do you want to do such a dangerous thing? I've already said that this world is dangerous. I don't need you to tell me your information because … I can choose to look directly into your soul! "
He kissed Felicity gently on the cheek and whispered in her ear, "It's too late to be afraid now, beautiful girl. Accept your fate. Don't worry, it will be … painful."
"Look into my … eyes!"
"No! No! "
