Chapter 2244: Late Autumn in the Golden City (Part 43)

Batman was changing clothes.

Batman had come wearing the formal attire for the banquet, but this was precisely one of his plans, because dressing neatly before the banquet officially started and going to have a small chat with the banquet host would give people the illusion that "I have prepared, and things will develop steadily like this."

This couldn't really be considered deception; it was more like a misleading cover-up, conveying an attitude of "I'm just here to attend the banquet today and don't intend to do anything else."

But when someone deliberately exhibits a certain attitude, it proves that they must be doing something completely opposite.

Batman intended to go to Cat Getan to take a look.

Batman had long heard of this Cat Getan with the sun out. The first time he saw it was when entering Shiler's mental tower, glimpsing a corner of Cat Getan's development at that time through Bruce's spiritual body.

Batman was very shocked, but he wasn't like others who completely couldn't understand how this was done. In Batman's inner heart, he actually knew better than anyone else how to change Cat Getan. The only problem was that there were once some irresistible forces blocking him, making it impossible for him to ever do it.

However, now the irresistible forces troubling the main universe seemed to have disappeared, but it looked like the main universe's Cat Getan didn't need saving that much either.

But Batman still intended to see the Cat Getan where Shiler was. After all, it hadn't been completely torn down and rebuilt, but had undergone improvement and transformation. There must be many interesting details in the evolutionary process, which was a novel scene very worth viewing.

So he specifically wore a more eye-catching colored suit and turned around in the banquet hall when the banquet was about to start. This was actually to leave an impression shadow on others. When you have a very deep impression of a person, you will instinctively ignore the time and environment they are in, and when you recall it, you will also blur when they appeared and when they disappeared. This is often used to create an alibi.

Five minutes before the banquet officially started, Batman left the banquet venue. He found a guest room to prepare to change into the Batsuit, using the time when everyone was gathered together to slip away from the banquet, go deep into the city to explore, and rush back before they noticed he had disappeared.

Batman of course had prepared equipment. Although this Cat Getan seemed to have restored order, its danger was no less than that of the dark city, and it might even be higher because of the tourists running around and the crazy teenagers.

Batman changing into the Batsuit had its rules, because his Batsuit wasn't like the tight-fitting clothes of most superheroes, which were similar to swimming shark suits and only needed to put on the legs, then the body, and then zip up.

The Batsuit was modular armor, a bit like medieval formal wear. Each part needed to be worn separately, including the lining, straps, belt, tight-fitting clothes, armor, weapons, and cape.

No matter how handsome or beautiful a person is, they can't strike a "galloping horse" pose when squatting in a pit. Batman also had to follow the basic law when dressing, which was to wear it piece by piece from the inside out.

His speed in arming himself was extremely fast, but unfortunately, Pamela was overly excited now. She didn't consider at all the problem that her sudden appearance might trigger Batman's defensive attack. She not only didn't take the door, but even directly let the vines lift her onto the guest room balcony.

The moment she landed, Batman heard the movement, but Batman wasn't an ordinary person. A normal person would choose to cover their exposed parts at this time, but between shame and safety, Batman would always run toward the latter without looking back. His first action was to grab a Batarang.

Why say that hot-blooded teenagers are a disaster for humanity? Pamela didn't consider at all whether Batman would attack her when she landed, and didn't even bring vines up.

And Batman was wearing his pants at this time. He was wearing that kind of equestrian pants that Clark described to Lex as relatively stingy with fabric in key areas. Although underwear was worn under this kind of pants, those strong thigh muscles made Pamela, even if she were a living Bodhisattva, have to be stunned for a few seconds.

Batman hadn't considered the possibility of accidental injury, so the timing of his attack was deliberately delayed by a few seconds, leaving the other party a chance to state their purpose. But at this time, Pamela was clearly lust-driven, lust-obsessed, a devil in lust...

When three Batarangs flew in front of Pamela, she was still stunned in place without moving.

"Ah!!!!!!!!!"

The three Batarangs completely blocked the space for Pamela to dodge. By the time Pamela reacted, she could only choose to pounce to the right, but one Batarang still shot directly into her abdomen.

In an instant, blood gushed out.

Then endless green flooded the whole world. The vines that surged in from the balcony instantly shattered the balcony door glass, whipping every living thing in the room like tentacles, almost able to see the pain of their master who was controlling them from their movements.

Pamela had never suffered such a serious injury. Batman's dart directly sliced open her abdominal cavity. Her organs flowed out along with the blood. When she knelt on the ground, her intestines were dragging on the ground.

The moment Pamela's scream came, Batman knew he had hit the wrong person, but the plants that attacked immediately afterward forced him to dodge first for self-defense. After finally dodging the first wave, Pamela had already fallen to the ground.

When the Green arrived, it was stunned.

No, why did the two of you start fighting? Is building a green belt for Cat Getan that difficult?! Is it worth it?!!

But shock was shock, the Green had to save Pamela quickly. He hurriedly manipulated the vines to want to pierce into Pamela's arm to provide her with healing factors, but at this time, Batman had already landed beside Pamela and roared at those vines: "Get out."

The Green wanted to say, "Who are you? You're telling me to get out again. Batman is fine, I won't argue with him, but you, which onion are you? Shall we compare?"

This thought hadn't appeared for a second when scorching light descended. Two heat rays brushed past the edge of the vines and hit, Superman had come.

This couldn't be compared. The Green wanted to slip away on the spot, but you say the atmosphere had already been paved to this point, could this group of people let him run away just like that?

But the Green was holding a breath in his heart, or rather, this breath hadn't been smooth since he met Shiler. Plants also have tempers, and he had to give them some color to see.

Instantly, the Green fired at full power. Countless vines broke through the ground, and the Rodriguez Manor instantly turned into a giant forest full of greenery. ===== CHAPTER 2245 =====

They seemed to be playing a game where whoever got hit by a falling corpse later would be the unlucky one.

Yes, there would definitely be a corpse; they had seen this scene too many times. If things went as expected, a black shadow would soon fall from the skylight, hit the ground with a 'bang', and the blood beneath it would flow into a bright red flower.

But after waiting for more than ten seconds, there was absolutely no movement. Schiller was still turning his head to look at the second-floor corridor, seemingly searching for the source of the sound.

Now, things were completely ruined.

Everyone began to run upstairs as fast as they could.

If you said this was another murder case meticulously directed by Schiller, no one would be afraid. But if you said even Schiller didn't know where this murder came from, then things were truly troublesome.

However, when it came to engaging in strenuous exercise at a banquet, there was a great deal of nuance involved.

Everyone was dressed to the nines right now: women's dresses were tight around the hips, men's suit trousers were tight in the crotch, men's pointed leather shoes were practically designed to torture their feet, and women's high heels were like instruments of torture. Ordinary people dressed like this couldn't even move their legs.

Conversely, when urgently needing to reach a destination, basically only extraordinary people could ignore the impact of their attire. Superman was indeed fast, but the Sorcerer Supreme was even more heavy-duty.

Strange was carrying a Sling Ring. The moment he realized what was happening, he opened a portal right in the face of the Source of Power.

This could be considered an instinct for the Sorcerer Supreme. Regardless of where the screaming or chaos was, opening a portal to the place where energy was most concentrated and throwing a punch was a small trick for Earth's defense inherited from the Ancient One.

Because generally speaking, most of the trouble that appeared before the Sorcerer Supreme involved magical entities causing mischief behind the scenes. If a magical entity wanted to transmit power, there would definitely be a source of concentrated energy explosion. After the portal opened and a slap was delivered to the opponent's face, the culprit—the magical entity—would be gone, and the chaos would naturally vanish.

If you ask what to do if you hit the wrong target, I can only say that in the Marvel ecosystem, 99% of the time you won't hit the wrong one, and the remaining 1% aren't human anyway; dead gods don't file complaints.

Strange followed his instincts and launched a combo. As the portal landed, he only vaguely saw a massive green shadow.

"Get lost!" he roared.

The Green wanted to say, "Who are you to tell me to get lost? I'll let it slide with Batman, but who do you think you are? Shall we spar?"

Not a second after this thought appeared, scorching light descended. Two heat vision beams grazed the edge of the vines and struck past—Superman had arrived.

This was not something to spar with. The Green wanted to slip away on the spot, but since the atmosphere had already been set up to this point, could this group of people let him just run away like that?

Immediately afterward, many people rushed in. Not to mention Marvel heroes like Iron Man and Captain America, that unlucky Constantine was the first to speak.

"The Green?!"

Alright, judging by the name, it definitely wasn't human. And not many people knew that Pamela was actually the avatar of the Green. Now that Pamela was lying there, held by Batman, and the whole room was covered in marks from fierce vine lashes, who would you ask to investigate this? Who wouldn't think that a strange, special creature like you was the culprit?

It wasn't that no one noticed the wound on Pamela's stomach was actually cut by a sharp weapon, but the problem was the momentum brought by Strange and Superman when they landed, which directly turned the murder scene investigation game into a boss raid.

Watching everyone shouting and killing, the Green wasn't intimidated. He was one of the elemental forces in the universe, born from the Parliament of Life. After all sentient plants died, they would join a collective consciousness called the Parliament of Trees. Currently, it was mainly the Parliament of Trees using green elemental power, which could also be called the Green.

This conceptual form of existence wasn't actually very afraid of mundane attacks. As long as plants existed in this world, he wouldn't die, and his power was almost infinite.

The Green weighed in his heart whether to fight. First of all, judging by the composition of the group of little people in front of him, it wasn't that he couldn't win, and besides, he could run if he couldn't win.

The Green held back a breath in his heart, or rather, he hadn't felt right since he met Schiller. Plants weren't without tempers; he had to show them something fierce.

In an instant, the Green went all out. Countless vines burst through the ground, and the Rodriguez estate instantly turned into a lush forest of giant trees.
