Chapter 264: Battle for the Cape 7

In an underground sewer, a small figure slipped past, and behind her, a figure who moved even faster approached . After a few turns, Not a Scaredy Cat was cornered at a dead end . Seeing this, she turned around and attacked without any notice . She was still using a polearm, but the appearance of the equipment was much better than the one she had held when she was on Hunter’s Isle . As an affiliated player who was heavily supported by Jiang Hu, she had quite good equipment .

Thunder Spear swept through the air, causing lighting and spark . The person who was following her was prepared and raised his arms to block . But to his surprise, when he was hit by the spark, he felt the energy in his body drain away, and he turned numb .

“Oh, there’s something like that?” Seven Kills smirked before shouting, “But it’s useless!”

The shout was like thunder in a bright sky . An aura of energy burst from around Seven Kills, and it rushed at Not a Scaredy Cat like a tsunami . She knew that she was at a disadvantage . The opponent was much stronger than she was, and if she faced him head on, she would lose . In that drastic situation, she suddenly had an idea . She leaped into the air and borrowed the force of the rush of aura to wave her weapon and break the heavy layer of cement above them . She then jumped onto the surface . It was a road above them, and there were plenty of cars…

Suddenly, a piece of the road was torn open like carpet, and a girl with a large weapon leaped out . The drivers and pedestrians were shocked, and the traffic halted in mere seconds . Then something even more unbelievable happened . Once the small girl stood still, she poked her weapon at the nearest vehicle, ignoring the people inside it . The car was like a fillet of beef, and the weapon she was holding was like a fork . She picked the car up and, with a yell, swung it at the hole on the ground .

Seven Kills stood where he was after unleashing his skill before making to chase . But when he leaped above ground, he was greeted by a yellow car that was careening toward him . When he jumped, he did not use his full energy because he just wanted to get to the surface . If he had known that this was waiting him, he would have charged upward with his fists ready, and he might have blasted the car back or cut it in half . But there was retries in this world…

Seven Kills was in midair, and there was no point gathering his energy . He could only shield his head with both hands and take this strike head on . The weight of the car plus the girl’s force pressed Seven Kills back into the sewer . That was not all . After tossing the car, Not a Scaredy Cat put away her weapon and took out two Uzis from her inventory . She aimed at the hole and started to fire . When she ran out of bullets, she successfully hit the oil tank of the taxi, and it exploded .

Temporary cooldown, the disadvantage of the low ground, the sudden attack, these three elements caught Seven Kills by surprise . Even though he had already tried to move away from the car when he heard the bullets, he was still caught in the explosion . Seven Kills’ Life Points plummeted to nineteen percent . He quickly used a large health potion .

Ignoring the bleeding and burning effect, he kicked underneath him and continued the chase . This time, Seven Kills leaped high into the air, but when he passed through the hole, Not a Scaredy Cat had already disappeared .

“Tsk… She’s escaped…” Seven Kills sighed with annoyance . “You really can’t put your guard down for a second…”

He slowly landed . When he hit the ground, he went down on one knee . He was slightly injured .

“Sh*t, jumped too high…”

It was then that the sirens blared . The police had arrived . Two officers ran out and raised their weapon at him . “Hey, you! Don’t move . Put your hands where I can see it!”

Seven Kills glanced at them and mumbled to himself, “Humph… the girl ruined the street, but I have to bear the responsibility…”

He ignored the warning form the officers and looked around . He found a suitable place, morphed into a shadow, and disappeared . The two officers were stunned . Their eyes could barely catch up to his speed . But when they moved their weapons, the man had already gone . Furthermore, they had no confidence that they could hit such a high-speed target . The chance of them injuring the citizens was higher .

“Headquarters, we have a serious situation here! We suspect it’s a fight between supervillains . “

After they recovered, they returned to the patrol car and reported the situation over their walkie talkie .

…

In an underground parking lot, two figures faced each other . The so-called experts normally had the same way of thinking, so in less than one hour since the start of the scenario, they would cross each other .

“I’m surprised I ran into you first . ” The man who spoke looked like he was twenty-six or so . He had short black hair, sharp features, and a firm stance . Understanding Death wore an ink-colored outfit and the cape from Regulation . He held a spray can in each hand, and it was unclear what they were for .

“I should be the one that you are most afraid to encounter,” Shiva replied . He looked slightly older than the other man, and his long hair covered half of his face . Brahman’s outfit did nothing to hide his large body . His hands were empty; he looked like a fist fighter .

“You could say that,” Understanding Death replied . “But… to win this Killing Game, you are a wall that I have to scale . It is not a bad thing that I have met you in my best condition . This should be a great battle…”

“I think you have a misunderstanding,” Shiva replied coldly . “For you, I should be a mountain . “

“Is that so? Haha…” Understanding Death smiled at Shiva’s taunt . “In the past, we have fought in other games before . I admit that you are powerful, but…”

There was a strange glow that passed his eyes .

“After seeing that kid’s battle, I see a new realm . Compared to him, you are nothing,” Understanding Death mocked back . “This is why you will always be under him in the combat stat ranking . “

“Will the people higher in the ranking always win?” Shiva asked . “I don’t think I need to tell you how many changes there are in combat in Thriller Paradise . “

“The same thing can be said for you because this is the reason I am still standing here,” Understanding Death said . “Unfortunately… the changes you mentioned have nothing to do with the kid . Don’t think you are just one step away from Phantom Dawn .

“Even though it just looks like a distance between just two places, that distance… might be larger than the distance between you and the hundredth player . “

“Humph… In that case…” Shiva said as eight stone plates appeared behind him . Each of them was the size of a palm and had different shape . “Let me see how big the distance between you and me is…”

…

In Northern Sanctuary Factory, Feng Bujue whistled as he eased out from a taxi . He gave the driver a one hundred bill and said arrogantly, “Keep the change . “

The driver thanked him and left happily . It had been one hour since Feng Bujue escaped from the bank . In this one hour, he had run to the paper stand and grabbed a bunch of paper . He then went to book a room at a small dormitory that did not ask for identification . As he studied the news, he unleashed his summoning skill while calculating the cooldown time . He had summoned a few things in this down time, and they were all as powerful as the Hammerhead Stork . They were small and did not have any special powers . While Feng Bujue was at the bank, he grabbed a bag of cash for himself . The cash had gone into his inventory… so buying papers and booking rooms were no issue for him .

“Northern Sanctuary… Humph… Not bad, Victor,” Feng Bujue said as he looked at the factory before him . The Victor whom he spoke of was Victor Fries, better known as Mr . Freeze . The Battle for the Cowl was one of the big events in DC Comics, and Feng Bujue had read it before . He was not that familiar with the plot, but since he had read it, he could dig up the details from his memory .

To put it simply, DC Comics used the Bat’s death to hike up the sales, but then it was later announced that he had transmigrated through time . After Bruce Wayne’s ‘death’, the second Robin, Jason Todd, tried to take the cowl and replace Batman . Todd was killed by Joker . For money reasons, however, he was also revived . He lost himself, and his darker side awakened . He then turned to the path of extremism and madness . Therefore, the first Robin, Dick Grayson had to return to Gotham City because he was the best candidate to take over from Wayne . Dick had already left Batman and Gotham City and taken on the identity of Nightwing in Brooklyn . As everyone expected, he defeated Todd and claimed the Bat’s cowl .

During this battle, two other Robins came to show up, and of course, they were far too behind the two previous Robins .

Feng Bujue did not care for the actual fight for the cowl itself; he cared more for the several other side quests that were happening in the background .

First, there was the battle between Two-Face and Penguin; second, it was the Arkham inmates that were released and controlled by Black Mask; third, there was the fact that Mr . Freeze was captured by Captain Gordon . From the information on the news, it seemed like the third event had not happened yet…
