Chapter 279 Battle for the Cape 22

"Listen, he’s the one who robbed the bank. He’s the one who killed the police and Robin." Shiva continued to plead his case. "The police and the people from the Network have been trying to catch me without even giving me a chance to explain myself. Their only basis is because they think I am ’dangerous’, so of course I have to run.

"Those supposed members of justice have their own moral standard and force others to follow it. You should know how annoying that is better than I do, right?"

That was music to Jason’s ears because Jason Todd was the most rebellious Robin there was, and he always had issues with many philosophies that Bruce Wayne had. A person’s experience would change their view of the world and their understanding of justice.

After changing from Robin to Red Hood, Todd’s world was indeed something Dick or Tim could never understand. From how Todd saw it, the first and third generation Robins had already been ’brainwashed’ by Bruce, and they were absolutely foolish for believing in something that was principally too idealistic. Perhaps people might think that Todd was extremist, but in a way, was that not Batman’s way as well? Both were people who suffered from childhood trauma, so who had the better morals? It was hard to say. Of course, if the Joker was asked, he would say they were all crazy.

"Is that so? Then I will give you a chance to prove yourself." Todd found cover, and the coarse voice came from the mask. "You said that you want to kill him, right? Then I won’t interrupt. Go ahead."

At the moment, with the influence of endorphin, the pain from his broken arm was not that obvious. But... if he still wished to use that arm to shoot or punch someone in this short period of time, he had better be prepared for the injury to worsen.

Hearing that, Shiva replied with determination, "Gladly!"

Then he moved quickly. With a somersault, he jumped down from the rooftop and headed for the street.

Hearing the commotion, Jason poked out his head to look, and he saw the man jump down from the building. One had to understand that even for superhero like Todd, without any tools, they only dared to jump down from three-story-tall buildings. If it was higher, they would need the help of gliders or ropes. But this man in casual wear jumped down from an eight-story building like it was nothing.

None of these travelers are normal humans... Todd thought to himself, and he confirmed that all of them had superpowers.

After Shiva landed, he first looked at the rooftop. He did not see Todd, but he knew that the man was watching from above.

"I hope you will honor your promise and not ambush me when I kill him," Shiva said.

The reply was silence, but that was enough. Shiva moved his attention to the car where Feng Bujue was hiding, and a cold smile appeared on his lips. Behind him, the sorcery weapon Heavenly Hourglass had appeared. The seven stone plates glowed and then shot out at the target. With the location where Shiva was standing as the center, the stone plates could move freely within a two-hundred-meter radius. They were like floating cannons that could fire light beams from any angle with high agility. Before this weapon, Feng Bujue, who was trapped inside a small space, was like a gutted fish.

"Those who trick and scam often dig their own grave," Shiva commented proudly. When facing Feng Bujue, he was more relaxed compared to Todd. He did not care about the bomb. Even if the bomb was real, as long as the bomb could not kill him with one shot, it was pointless. The seven stone plates flew at the car and rotated above it. They were like a bunch of circling eagles, zeroing in on their target.

Several seconds later, with a zinging sound, the stone plates shot out light beams, and all of them aimed at the car. This attack did not continue for that long before the car exploded.

It was just the explosion of the car. The range of the explosion was less than ten meters. The threat that Feng Bujue claimed of ’blowing up several streets’ did not happen.

"See, Jason." Shiva turned his chin up. "He’s just a liar. If he was wearing an actual bomb, this attack..."

"... would have blown the two of you into pieces already." Another voice finished the sentence for Shiva. Shiva looked toward the voice in shock and then opened the menu to look. He realized that next to the ID Feng Bujue, there was the term ’alive’.

In the flames, a large figure walked out. With every step, there was the sound of metal clanking, like a robot. When he got a good look, Shiva could not help but gasp, "What is this?"

"How did you get Mr. Freeze’s armor?" Todd, who was watching from above, had the better eye and recognized the armor with one glance.

"Hahaha..." Feng Bujue laughed with abandon. His voice came out from the armor’s mouthpiece, and it had been modified already.

"Shiva, is it?" he said to the man. "Do you really think, standing at that distance, you wouldn’t be blasted by the bombs on my body? Humph... I’ve stressed it so many times. Once this explodes, there is no one within the few surrounding blocks who will survive."

"Stop kidding. Even if you really strap TNT on you, how much you can carry inside your jacket? Don’t tell me you have a small atomic bomb hidden in your clothes?" Shiva was not only showing his suspicion. He was testing the water.

Feng Bujue naturally knew what the man was up to. He replied calmly, "I have fuel air explosives on me. Would you like to give it a test?"

"What!" Shiva did not respond but Todd gasped from the rooftop. This was the difference between a military arms amateur and an expert.

"You should be thankful that I managed to squirrel into the armor, or else it’d be over for all of us," Feng Bujue said with a smile.

"You madman, do you know what will happen if something like that explodes in the city?" Todd roared.

"Good question," Feng Bujue replied. "In the morning, the explosion at the factory was an experiment between me and Prof. Fries, so I have a very accurate assessment of the damage that the thing I am carrying can cause."

"Hmm... No matter what you say, I will not believe you," Shiva said. He was confident when he said that. "Tying bombs on you will halt the characters in the scenario, but for us players, you are playing with fire."

Such words mentioning the scenario or players would be hidden by the system, or the words heard by the NPC would be altered.

Shiva raised an arm with his palm showing up.

"We don’t care about what will happen to a virtual world and how many virtual people will die."

The seven plates slowly moved in the air, and they surrounded Feng Bujue.

"Using ’self-explosion’ as a threat and showing it so clearly might work in a one-on-one mode, but this is a Battle Royale Mode. Are you really not afraid that I use my life to fight with you?" Shiva asked.

"Ha..." Feng Bujue scoffed. "With the players in this Killing Game, I am obviously the weakest one. Being able to bring down just one of you with me is good enough for me, so why wouldn’t I dare do that?"

As he spoke, he adjusted the Freeze Ray Gun that he was holding. "For us small characters, being able to kill the boss of Brahman, that will give me plenty of bragging rights, won’t it?"

"Hmm..." Shiva also laughed. "You have a point. Looks like I haven’t considered this too fully."

As he finished, the stone plates initiated another round of attacks. The sharp lasers shot on the armor continuously from many angles, but before the perfect armor, these attacks were like ant bites...

"Nice power," Feng Bujue commented. "Looks like a Sorcery Weapon."

The fact that Feng Bujue could say Sorcery Weapon did not surprise Shiva too much because someone had posted a thread about it on forum before. He just replied calmly, "Indeed, this is called Heavenly Hourglass. Ever since I got this weapon, I have not lost in a one-on-one fight before, and I don’t think that you will break that record."

"Is that so?" Feng Bujue said. "With this kind of weapon that fires lasers as strong as machine guns, can only fire three shots every time, and has to wait one minute between each shot, your opponent cannot be more than two hundred meters away from you, right?"

Before Brother Jue finished, Shiva’s Terror Points continued to climb.

"Where did you get that data?" Shiva asked with a dark face. At the moment, he suspected that there was a traitor in Brahman, or else how could the man so accurately list out the four properties of Heavenly Hourglass?

"Of course, from observation," Feng Bujue replied as he returned fire. He did not move fast and could not move fast because the most effective Freeze Ray Gun was bigger than an M4A1. It was as large as a rocket launcher. The only way to hold it was to place it on his shoulder, and he had to turn slightly to the side to aim the barrel at his target. Using this thing to shoot others would display clear hostility, and it would give the other party a long time to prepare. Even a normal person would know that this was the time to run.

Even so, with so many weaknesses, this was Mr. Freeze’s best weapon, and the reason was simple.

A pale-blue light beam shot out from the barrel, and the bright light lit up the night. Shiva moved fast, and in two seconds, he had moved more than ten meters away, far from the light beam.

But the light beam was continuous like a water stream used by the firemen to put out a fire. As long as Feng Bujue pulled on the trigger and moved the gun, the beam would follow the target. The scariest thing was, not only would the area shot by the beam be instantly frozen, before the attack ended, the freezing effect would expand to cover the area around the beam with incredible speed.

In other words, Shiva was not just avoiding a single beam but a large, moving AOE attack.
