[Main Mission 2: Restore Gotham City to its former glory! Mission Reward: Unknown.]
[Activating Sinner Ranking.]
Another ranking?
Why did all the missions seem to be so strange recently?
"…"
[Note: This mission is a group mission.]
[Note: This mission is a group mission.]
[Note: This mission is a group mission.]
The important message was repeated three times.
Irin read it silently.
[When the total value of the Sinner Ranking reaches 100%, all the surviving apostles in Gotham City will complete the mission.]
[The final rating will be based on the Sinner Ranking.]
[Let your name be known throughout Gotham City!]
[Work hard to become the star of tomorrow in Gotham City!]
…
Irin thought to himself. Since he had some free time, he opened the Sinner Ranking.
He tried his best to read the hidden information from the details.
This was a good habit that Irin had maintained for many years.
One word, steady.
…
[Sinner Ranking]
[Gotham Sinner Ranking] 24831000000 (0.24%)
[Irin] 1123 (0.11%)
[Zhu Yun'er] 1000 (0.10%)
[Pan Zhengyi] 248 (0.02%)
[Li Erpang] 112 (0.01%)
[Su Xiaosu] 3 (0.00%)
…
Irin looked at it for a while. After he could not analyze any other special information, he closed the Sinner Ranking.
Sinner Ranking?
Gotham City?
Glory of the past?
Why did it look so strange?
The other four apostles stepped out of the walls of Arkham Home one after another.
The moment they stepped out of Arkham Home, the other four apostles received the mission notification at the same time. Their expressions were different.
Then, they were stunned for a moment.
They quietly read the notification and did not say anything.
Soon, the others finished reading.
"Kekekeke —"
Suddenly.
Pan Zhengyi covered his face with one hand, covering the dark circles under his eyes. He lifted his messy bangs and laughed strangely.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.
When the others heard this, their gazes instantly fell on Pan Zhengyi.
"Kekekeke …"
Pan Zhengyi became more and more crazy.
"…"
"…"
"…"
Li Erpang rubbed his face. His face was almost disfigured and his chrysanthemum was almost ruined.
He couldn't help but cast a resentful glance at Su Xiaosu, but when he saw the other's figure, he instantly put away that little bit of resentment, lowered his head, and didn't say anything.
Zhu Yun'er bit her lip and thought for a moment.
She suddenly snorted and said to Su Xiaosu, "Sister Susu, let's go."
Sister Susu?
Brother Su!
Fatso cursed inwardly.
But he did not dare to say it out loud.
He felt that if he said it out loud … he might die.
"Eh, that's not right …" Li Erpang suddenly felt that something was wrong. "Wait, isn't this second quest a team quest?"
"Team? Haha … "Zhu Yun 'er sneered.
After saying that, he turned around with Su Xiaosu and stepped onto the bridge.
They quickly left the place.
Arkham Home was located on a small island on the outskirts of the city and was surrounded by canals.
Two bridges could be seen in front of the gates of the nursing home. At the other end of the bridges was the bustling city.
In the middle of the bustling city, there seemed to be a tall building. The top of the building shone brightly and there seemed to be a line of words on it. However, due to Irin's limited eyesight, he was unable to make out the words clearly.
On the other side of the city, in a certain area, thick plumes of smoke could be seen rising into the sky and converging into the grey clouds in the sky.
The thick plumes of smoke appeared to be the main source of air pollution in the city.
After Zhu Yun'er and Su Xiaosu left, Irin ignored Pan Zhengyi who was having a fit and turned to look at Li Erpang.
He cast a deep look at Li Erpang.
Under Irin's scrutinizing gaze, Fatso felt his hair standing on end and he shrunk his neck back.
"You … what are you looking at?"
Irin chuckled. "It seems like you know what kind of place Gotham City is."
Li Erpang's expression froze.
Only then did he remember that when he saw the strange growth of vines, he had unintentionally mentioned the nicknames of a few famous villains in Gotham.
"Tsk." Li Erpang originally thought that he had the foresight and was secretly delighted. However, he did not expect Irin to notice what he had said in a moment of desperation.
After hesitating for a moment, Li Erpang remembered that the "youth potion" he had injected himself with came from Irin.
Therefore, he sighed and did not hide anything. He summarized the ancient story in a simple and easy to understand manner.
Simply put, the entire history of Gotham could be summarized in two sentences.
The people were simple and honest. Gotham City.
Talented people. Arkham City.
"That's the gist of it. The Riddler, Penguin, Joker's Girl, Joker's Girl, Poison Ivy's Girl … they all came from Arkham Asylum. However, the strange thing is that the villains all became old and the asylum became a nursing home. I don't know what the f * ck is going on!"
Li Erpang was extremely depressed as he spoke.
This plot, this style, it was clearly not right.
The villains all became old and the main mission made them become the new Gotham villains?
What about Batman?
Logically speaking, Batman and Bruce Wayne should also be old men, right?
"The Riddler? Edvard Nygma? "
Irin said a name.
"Wait, you saw him?" Fatso's eyes widened.
"I saw him." Irin did not reveal the details.
"The Riddler, get the hell out of Gotham! Out of all the villains, I hate the Riddler the most! "
Li Erpang suddenly said angrily.
Irin, "?"
"You don't know, but a few years ago, there was an EB of a century-old game company that remade a fossilized game, 'Batman VR Ultimate Edition'. Let's not talk about the 230 paid downloadable content, this is also the usual practice of this company …"
"In the game, there are Riddler's puzzles everywhere. There are as many as 1500 of them! If you don't solve all the Riddler's puzzles, you can't unlock the perfect ending! "
"The whole game feels like you're fighting a battle of wits and courage with the Riddler!"
"200 hours of game time, more than 130 hours of it are spent solving puzzles!"
"If the Riddler doesn't get the hell out of Gotham, who will get the hell out of Gotham? Get the hell out of Fat Lord! "
Irin, "…"
Alright, although he had not played the game, from the sound of it, this game company and the Riddler in the game were indeed quite overboard.
1500 small puzzles?
More than overboard?
What a lunatic!
Although Li Erpang briefly explained the origin of Gotham.
Irin was very clear that this was obviously not the same as the Gotham that Li Erpang mentioned.
First of all, the Gotham villains in the original game were already old.
The mental hospital had also become a nursing home.
That seemed to be the case.
After losing the villains, did Gotham really become a good city with simple and honest people?
Irin laughed.
Li Erpang rubbed his face and buttocks. After the pain subsided a little, he squinted his eyes and said with a grin, "My name is Li Erpang. Why don't we form a team for this mission? Those two women are obviously not to be trifled with. "
Speaking of Zhu Yun'er and Su Xiaosu, Li Erpang's tone seemed to become heavier.
However, because he could not see Li Erpang's eyes, Irin could not tell what he was really thinking.
There were many benefits to squinting his eyes.
Irin did not reject and added him as a friend.
After leaving Arkham Home, it was unknown if Doctor Jack had already noticed that his drawer was destroyed by Irin and a potion was missing.
In short, they dawdled at the entrance for a while. The nursing home was eerily quiet and no other villains came out to chase after them.
Could it be that they did not chase after them …
Could it be that they could not chase after them?
Irin silently proposed one of the hypotheses.
It would be verified in the future.
The two of them took another bridge.
They parted ways with Zhu Yun'er and Su Xiaosu.
Since they were both connected to the city, Irin did not want to bump into the two women since they did not want to see them.
— — This was only temporary.
Irin curled up the corner of his mouth and smiled inexplicably.
"Be the bad guy?"
"This mission is not bad …"
…
…
There were two things to talk about.
Half an hour later.
Su Xiaosu and Zhu Yun'er arrived at the city center.
Zhu Yun'er was even more confused about what this mission was all about.
This place was close to the city center.
The area was bustling.
In the sky, there were countless intersecting tracks carrying all kinds of vehicles moving quickly.
If the veteran Batman player Li Erpang was here, he would definitely say in surprise that this was Gotham City's most famous "rail transportation system".
Unfortunately, Batman was a popular theme in the last century. Zhu Yun'er and Su Xiaosu were otaku and did not have any information related to "Batman" in their minds.
But in front of them, this was clearly a simple and honest city.
Every passerby was polite and had a smile on their face. The surroundings were filled with the sound of birds and the fragrance of flowers. Everywhere was filled with a warm and peaceful atmosphere.
But for some reason, Zhu Yun'er, who had experienced many trials in the inner world, felt more and more uneasy as the scenery in front of her became more and more warm and simple.
Something was not right.
Suddenly.
Zhu Yun'er, who casually opened the apostle panel, was stunned.
She saw that on the upper right corner of the panel, there was a "BUFF" icon that mysteriously appeared.
It was a glaring and ferocious black skull.
It was somewhat similar to the Brand of Death on her private area.
But the difference was that the Brand of Death's skull was gloomy and solemn, but this skull icon had a strange smile on it.
When she took a closer look, the strange smile disappeared, as if it was just an illusion.
When Zhu Yun'er's finger lightly tapped on the "skull" icon, a countdown silently appeared on the panel.
【71:24:33】
“!”
"Could it be!"
Zhu Yun'er's mind suddenly flashed with a terrifying thought.
"I wonder if the others have discovered it …"
She silently glanced at the calm Su Xiaosu, hesitated for a moment, and decided not to expose this matter.
"The Sin List …"
Zhu Yun'er thought about the mission prompt, and her eyes flashed.
"If that's the case … then don't blame me."
Zhu Yun'er smiled coldly and told Su Xiaosu part of her thoughts.
Su Xiaosu's expression did not change when she heard this. She was still as calm as water, and gently nodded.
But the two fists that were as big as casseroles were already kneaded together.
The crisp sound of bones cracking could be heard.
The massacre … was about to begin!
Zhu Yun'er's hand shook, and a silver light flashed, and a quaint longsword appeared in the middle of her palm.
There were people coming and going in front of her, and it was bustling with activity.
Zhu Yun'er did not hesitate. Her figure moved, and she directly killed into the crowd.
Silver light flashed wildly as she raised her hand. The quaint longsword was like a lawnmower, and it slashed out a sharp sword light. In an instant, five lives were taken!
The long street was dyed red with blood!
At the moment when she started to kill, Zhu Yun'er's expression was frosty. She was not moved by the deaths of these people at all.
"Ahhhhh —"
"F * ck … What happened!"
"…"
Zhu Yun'er's violent killing had indeed caused a commotion on the street.
Su Xiaosu stomped her feet, and the ground cracked. Her nearly two-meter tall body was like a human-shaped tank, and she set off a storm of blood in the crowd.
Wherever Su Xiaosu passed, "humanoid figures" flew into the air one after another.
Some of their heads were caved in.
Some of their limbs were twisted.
Some of their chests were punched with a bloody hole.
The scene was extremely cruel.
Su Xiaosu and Zhu Yun'er instantly turned into emotionless killing machines, and they did not hesitate at all.
At the same time when they started to kill mercilessly.
Su Xiaosu and Zhu Yun'er's eyes were also filled with lines of small words.
…
[Killed "Good" citizen of Gotham City, + 10 Evil Points gained.]
[Killed "Good" citizen of Gotham City, + 10 Evil Points gained.]
[Killed "Good" citizen of Gotham City, + 10 Evil Points gained.]
…
Only ten Evil Points?
Zhu Yun'er was shaking her ancient sword, and she unintentionally glanced at it. She was so angry that she almost vomited blood.
What was with these points that were as small as a mosquito's leg?
One citizen's points was only ten points?
The total value of the "Evil Points Ranking" was a whole million!
In other words … She had to kill … 100,000 people?
In broad daylight, under such a clear sky, she had to kill 100,000 people in Gotham City?
What kind of mission was this?
Zhu Yun'er's simple calculation caused the long sword in her hand to tremble, and she almost lost her grip on it.
Suddenly.
Just as Zhu Yun'er was thinking about the details of the mission in shock …
She strangely realized that as she killed, there was no one around her.
Su Xiaosu was the same. She stopped her fists.
The humanoid tank was forced to stop its crushing.
Because there was suddenly no one around them.
All the citizens of Gotham City formed a large circle around the two of them.
Zhu Yun'er: "!"
Su Xiaosu: "…"
Zhu Yun 'er inexplicably felt a chill run down her spine.
Something was not right.
It was too strange.
It did not make sense.
Because … the people around them did not show any signs of panic in the face of their merciless slaughter.
Instead, they were smiling.
They were smiling slightly.
Their faces were filled with a warm and peaceful smile that made people feel like they were bathing in the spring breeze.
However, it was precisely this kind of warm smile that made Zhu Yun 'er feel a chill run down her spine under this kind of situation.
Beside the two of them, there was a pile of corpses.
Mutilated corpses.
Blood also dyed the street red.
All the cars were civilized and had their flashing lights on. Then, they stopped by the side of the road in a neat and orderly manner.
The two of them stood in the middle of the road like a Joker being surrounded by a group of "good" citizens. A Joker being surrounded by a group of "good" citizens!
The good citizens of Gotham City surrounded them for a while.
Almost at the same time, it was like calm water suddenly boiling.
Hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands?
Zhu Yun'er and Su Xiaosu could not tell how many good citizens there were around them.
But from all directions, countless whispers could be heard at the same time.
"Is this a criminal?"
"Murder, he is a criminal. There is no doubt about it."
"Hehe, so this is the legendary 'criminal'!"
"But the law states that no crime can be committed in Gotham City."
"But … a 'criminal' is a person who has committed a crime?"
"Then …"
"Then …"
"Then …"
"Then …"
All the discussions.
Suddenly, strangely, they converged into the same sentence —
"If we kill a 'criminal', it is not considered a crime —"
Zhu Yun'er's expression changed dramatically!
Everyone … took out their pistols at the same time!
Imagine being surrounded by thousands of people and being pointed at by thousands of pistols at the same time.
Even the calm Su Xiaosu could not help but have a slight change in expression.
"I —"
Bang bang bang bang!
The continuous gunshots drowned out the words that Zhu Yun'er wanted to say.
But it was not important what she was going to say.
What was important was …
The continuous gunshots were like fireworks in a festival.
Gotham, which had been quiet for many years, suddenly became lively.
…
…
【71:22:13】
Actually, it was quite convenient to have a countdown.
That is, if the countdown timer wasn't set on the skull.
Irin silently looked at the changes on the "crime list" and speculated about the actions of the two women.
Li Erpang valiantly killed his way to the street.
At the traffic light.
The pedestrians were polite.
They were courteous to each other.
No one ran the red light.
No cars crossed the line.
No cars honked randomly.
Someone helped an old man cross the road.
There were passers-by feeding pigeons in the square. It was a peaceful scene of people and birds.
"What the f * ck, you are telling me that this is Gotham City???"
Li Erpang was stunned for a full 20 seconds before he came to his senses.
This seemed to be … a little different from the Gotham he remembered.
No.
These were two completely different things!
What happened to Gotham City, a place where the people were simple and honest?
Wasn't Arkham supposed to be filled with talents?
Was this a joke?
Fat Lord felt very sad. He originally thought that he would be able to experience a "real" Gotham game, but he did not expect to be greeted with such a scene.
The people were really simple!
"You guys … are making things difficult for Fat Lord!"
Li Erpang looked at his left palm, then looked at his right palm.
He seemed to have decided to use his right hand to destroy his precious conscience.
Irin thought for a moment, then silently stood to the side.
Li Erpang hesitated for a full minute.
Finally, Li Erpang spat on the ground.
"I have decided! It's you! The right that has accompanied me for many years! "
Li Erpang rolled up his right sleeve.
Irin was slightly startled, "Why the right hand?"
"Hehe …" Li Erpang suddenly laughed and said mysteriously, "Because … the right hand has a strong murderous aura, it can ward off evil!"
Irin was speechless, "…"
Li Erpang raised his murderous right hand and slapped it towards one of the sturdier middle-aged men.
Slap!
The big man didn't even have time to react before he was slapped to the ground, and his neck made a cracking sound.
Dead.
Dead.
Dead.
At the same time, Li Erpang also received a kill notification.
Ten sin points.
It was like a mosquito's leg.
Fatso's mouth twitched.
Ten points?
Bullsh * t?
"Sigh, if I could choose, I would like to be a good person!"
Just as Li Erpang decided to temporarily destroy his conscience and successfully become a bad person …
The surroundings instantly quieted down.
There was no sound.
"Why are all of you looking at me … Isn't it just a shark?"
Li Erpang was a little scared by the stares of the crowd.
Irin saw this and expressionlessly took a few steps back.
Then, he activated Stalking Shadow.
Suddenly, the silent crowd broke into a discussion.
"Murder, murder, murder!"
"Is that the legendary criminal?"
"So that's the criminal?"
"Then if we kill the 'criminal', it doesn't count as breaking Gotham's laws, right?"
"…"
The peaceful smiles on the faces of all the good citizens suddenly became distorted.
Suddenly, the atmosphere changed.
Li Erpang was stunned at first, then in the next moment, his scalp went numb. It was as if he had been electrocuted, and he was suddenly enlightened.
Cool, cool.
Half of them took out small handguns.
Half of them took out … grenades from their pants!
"What the f * ck?"
Li Erpang's squinted eyes suddenly became wider.
"Killing the criminal ~"
"Kill, kill, kill ~ ~"
"Oh yeah ~ ~"
In an instant, the festive atmosphere filled Gotham's good citizens with a sea of jubilation.
It was like a festival.
A wave of grenades covered the sky as they were thrown at Second Fatty Li!
"What the f * ck!!!"
This was really Gotham City!
In an instant, Li Erpang was drowned in a bright explosion.
