American comics: Enlightenment in Arkham, Ascension to Homelander

Chapter 66: Court of Owls



Downton's words were only heard by Selina.

As for the speedsters who gathered around him, all they could see was Downton's neck, which was crushed to pieces with one hand.

That's their friend's neck!

"He's a monster!"

"Damn it, how is this possible... a person's neck is like plasticine!"

"This is not a guy we can deal with!"

"The monster, he is the monster of Gotham, he is the claw from the horror story!"

"I'm so sorry for you!"

Listening to the roar of the bikers, Downton angrily pulled out his pistol and shot two people in the head.

At the same time that Downton fired, the speedsters had already begun to flee.

Watching the bastards running away like crazy, Downton retracted his gun without interest, then walked to a group of motorcycles, chose one that was more pleasing to the eye, and rode on it.

Just as Downton started his motorcycle, Selina was slightly startled and leaned over to pick up the wrist of the bastard she had knocked over.

After looking at the skin on his wrist, Selina raised her head.

"Downton, they are not just gangsters, but gunmen of the Ossade family.

I suspect that they are not just here for racing, they are probably observing the situation of the Falcone family.

The death of Sabatino and the changes in the territory of Italian gangs may have given the gangs, including the Osade family, new ideas.

The rain in Gotham is about to become more violent again. "

"Yeah, yeah, more violent, but what does that have to do with me wanting to go for a ride?"

Downton responded to Selina's words with a smile, and then pushed the accelerator hard.

"Don't waste time there, hello Katie, find a car quickly, don't let me get too far away!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Downton let go of the control of his motorcycle, and his motorcycle rushed out in an instant, heading straight for Selina.

The next moment.

Poof!

The motorcycle jolted over the faces of the gang members Selina was observing and continued driving into the heavy rain.

The gang members spat out a lot of blood due to this pressure, and the blood foam even flew onto Selina's face.

Seeing the tragic situation of the gunman, Selina shook her head and stood up.

She wiped her face in the heavy rain first, then quickly got on a motorcycle and chased Downton.

After the two of them disappeared one after another, a dark figure also walked out of the nearby shadows.

Bruce, still wearing a tramp suit, came to a few gangsters on the ground and carefully observed the body whose neck was crushed by Downton alive.

After just two glances, Bruce couldn't help but take a breath.

“In terms of strength, I am by no means his opponent, so it’s not surprising that Lei Xiaogu lost.

Although he claims to be holy, the opponent he chose this time is closer to the image of the devil than he is. "

Just when Bruce said this, the thug who had just been thrown over by Selina and crushed in the face by Downton's motorcycle took two hard breaths and stretched out his hand towards Bruce.

"Help...help me!"

Following the thug's cry for help, Bruce looked towards the thug gloomily. When his eyes fell on the thug's tattooed wrist, his eyes couldn't help but condense slightly.

He slowly came to the thug's side, and then raised his right foot.

Boom!

Click!

After one kick, the thug's right hand was crushed by Bruce!

Accompanied by the screams of the thugs, Bruce turned around and chose a motorcycle with the best performance.

I saw him riding his bicycle in the direction of Downton and calling Gotham General Hospital at the same time.

After briefly explaining the location of the wounded, Bruce put down his phone and focused on tracking Downton and the two.

Meanwhile, in the Iceberg Club, Sofia is completely confused when she learns that she must leave Gotham immediately.

"Why!"

Not surprisingly, the first thing she said was why.

"Why do I have to leave, I've only been back to Gotham for one day, one day!

I know... I know I didn't do a good enough job, and Downton was just playing with me, but I know how to get along with him, and I have successfully gotten close to him, and I will use time to slowly conquer him!

I can be played by others, or looked down upon by Downton, but you are my father, you should not treat me like an object, you should trust me more!

I will never leave here! "

"Shut up!"

If it were any other time, Falcone wouldn't mind tolerating his daughter's petulance.

But at this moment, it was too late for Falcone to transfer his assets, so he had no time to argue with his daughter.

So Falcone waved his hand to Zas.

"Take her to the plane and wait for me."

"I see."

Victor nodded, then sneered and walked towards Sophia.

Seeing Victor acting evilly, Sofia gritted her teeth and took two steps back.

"Don't come here, damn it, why do you all listen to my father so much? He is already old!

He even wants to leave Gotham, the place where he has worked for more than thirty years. Isn't he crazy? Why don't you dissuade him, but you still obey him like a piece of wood!

Please, don’t take me away, I still have a lot of things to do, I..."

"Shut up!"

Before Sophia could finish speaking, Victor had already pinched her neck and knocked her unconscious.

Then, Victor nodded to Falcone, picked up Sofia and walked out of the room.

After the two of them left, Falcone sighed leisurely.

But……

There were two sighs in the room where he was alone.

Following the direction of the other sigh, Falcone sneered and said.

"It seems that our cooperation is about to end, Liv."

"Yes, Mr. Falcone, thank you for your help over the years."

Liv walked out from the secret door deeper in the closet and responded to Falcone with her head down.

"In fact, only I know that it is you who made me what I am. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be here today.

However, reality is always regrettable, Boss Falcone.

No real Gotham person can leave Gotham without paying any price!"

The moment the voice fell, Liv smiled and raised her right hand. In her palm, a small pink Glock pistol was pointed at Falcone's chest.

Bang!

The gunshot rang out suddenly, and Falcone smiled, but Liv turned behind her with a look of astonishment!

Da.

Dong.

Deep and shallow footsteps came from behind Liv. Ozwald, wearing a luxurious tuxedo, had already pushed open the fireplace and walked towards here with his umbrella that was still smoking.

As he walked, he pointed the tip of the umbrella at Liv's back again.

Bang!

After another shot, Liv fell to the ground completely.

On the side, looking at the place where Liv was shot, Falcone's smile also deepened.

"Ozwald."

He said with a smile.

"There are no secrets in my club. You have already mastered my club, and you have heard all the conversations between me and Downton.

You didn't hit her weak spot, so you are ready to surrender. The living Liv is your gift to Downton, right?"

"Don't say that, Boss Falcone. I am just a useless penguin.

Whether it is Maroni or Fish, they always call me that. The only one who doesn't call me that is you.

But, Boss, you obviously have the ability to make them learn to respect me, but why don't you do that, but let them humiliate me?

Just because you have prepared my role for me, I can only enjoy humiliation from beginning to end with your support?"

At this point, Ozwald's eyes became more neurotic, and the tip of the umbrella in his hand quickly pointed at Falcone's head.

But...

After a brief thought, he finally controlled himself and pressed the tip of the umbrella on the twitching Liv.

"If we offer too many gifts to Don at once, I'm really afraid that he will become as greedy as you guys.

Liv, haha, I've only seen such a stupid woman among the living members of the Court of Owls!

It took me a lot of effort to find out her identity as an owl, and it took me even more effort to find out that you had also found out her identity, until finally, I finally found out that you had manipulated her into the owls.

She is even the illegitimate daughter of your enemy, which is the key to the owls' trust in her!

It's amazing, props like Liv are not easy to find, you really took the trouble at the beginning, she will be the most suitable gift for me to present to Don, haha!"
