Chapter 3732

Schiller jumped to the roof of the building on the right and arrived at the ground along the stairs of the building on the right. He set his sights on a squad of warriors.

If he wanted to set a trap in the cathedral, Batman only needed to contact Azrael. But now the warrior squad was also moving toward this side, which proved that he also contacted Lady Shiva.

Even if he wanted to get rid of Tone as soon as possible and save his own life, there was no need to let both sides send people to pick him up. After all, Tone was just an ordinary person, and both his legs and arms were injured; there was no need to make a big fuss for him.

Then, the reason why the warrior squad appeared here is very likely that Batman could not wait to get back the nano-gear.

They have very likely already discovered that Schiller is not Batman. To be precise, he is not a good person. Those moral kidnappings and mental stimuli have no effect on him. Then there is no need to play any "personally save the destroyer" kind of drama, and even less need to insist on giving the nano-gear to Schiller and then letting him save Batman. Batman can completely retrieve the gear himself.

Therefore, Schiller speculated that these warrior squads should be delivering gear to Batman. And his target is the nano-gear in Lady Shiva's hands.

A warrior squad has about 3~5 people. The one Schiller set his sights on only had three. Their attire was obviously different from the cult members, and even in the dimly lit city, they were easy to recognize.

Schiller ambushed at the street corner. The moment they turned the corner, Schiller fired five shots in a row with a silenced pistol. All three were knocked down. The dull sound did not travel far, nor did it alarm the surrounding cult members.

Schiller searched them at the fastest speed, but did not find the lantern-like device containing the nano-gear in the comics. So he turned and walked toward the second squad.

Bullets were not very plentiful, so he still had to use them sparingly. So this time he only fired one shot, knocking down the leader. The remaining two were solved with fist blades, and they didn't have it on them either.

Schiller walked into a hidden alley and began to think. Just then, he saw a figure wearing a purple hoodie flash past the street corner—that was Lady Shiva.

Schiller thought for a moment and did not walk up to attack directly. He circled out from the other side of the alley and happened to see two cult members patrolling out of the building. This time he did not use a gun, but flashed out from behind them, directly strangled the neck of one of them with his hand, and gave him a knife from behind. When the other person reacted, Schiller punched him in the eye socket, knocked him back, and then kicked him in the lower abdomen. After kicking the person down, he stabbed the fist blade into his throat.

Immediately after, he stripped the red robe off the cult member he had backstabbed to death and put it on himself. This garment happened to have a hood, and he put it on. Because the light inside the city was too dim, once the hood was covered, nothing could be seen.

Schiller first dragged the two corpses into the stairwell, then pretended to have finished patrolling, walked out of the stairwell, held a torch, and walked toward Lady Shiva's direction. After circling past the street corner where she appeared without changing his expression, he saw Lady Shiva standing between two warriors, saying something.

The two warriors didn't even look at him. This confirmed Schiller's previous speculation: they were all in cahoots, and those so-called fights were all performed.

Precisely because of this, Schiller was able to approach them. He lowered his head and walked past their side quickly. At the very moment he was closest to them, he pulled out the pistol from his bosom.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Because the distance was too close, the two warriors were directly shot in the head. Lady Shiva was shot in the lung, and blood instantly choked into her trachea. Taking advantage of her suffocation, Schiller smashed his fist into her face. After knocking her down, he snatched the "lantern" containing the nano-gear from her hand.

After snatching the item, Schiller turned and left immediately, not letting anyone see his face. He knew that the shot would not cause fatal damage to Lady Shiva, but it could cause a fatal blow to the cooperative relationship between the League of Assassins and the Order of St. Dumas.

Schiller left quickly with the nano-gear and returned to the building where Batman was. He saw cult members holding some kind of equipment walk in.

The cult members soon left that building with Batman and Tone, and others had no intention of staying there. And Schiller took advantage of the "darkness under the lamp" opportunity to enter the building and returned to the room where Batman was originally.

The room was a bit messy. The specific process could not be seen, but Schiller knew that Tone must have made a move on Batman. He might have wanted to kill Batman, but one strike failed, and instead, he was confused by Batman's sweet talk, and finally dragged it out until the cult members came to take both of them away together.

Judging from the traces, Tone wanted to smash the glass jar behind Batman's head. But unsurprisingly, that thing was of good quality—a stool couldn't break it.

Schiller began to think about what conditions Batman used to move Tone; this was very important. If Nano-Batman had killed Tone before, ordinary conditions would definitely not work. It must be a crucial, hit-the-nail-on-the-head condition.

In the original plot, Tone is Bane's son and witnessed Azrael Paul kill his father. Precisely because of this, he would go to save Batman, wanting Batman to kill Azrael. Perhaps Batman promised to help him take revenge?

But Tone, who had already been killed by Nano-Batman, would not easily believe Batman so easily. Unless... Batman promised to give him the nano-gear.

Perhaps precisely because of this, Lady Shiva ran a trip herself. Because Tone is Bane's son after all, ordinary warriors might not be able to subdue him in one encounter. If the nano-gear was really snatched away by Tone, Batman would be crying without tears.

But now, Lady Shiva was knocked down by him with a shot, the nano-gear was snatched away by him, and only cult members went. Batman's plan to use the nano-gear as bait to stabilize Tone until Lady Shiva came over to subdue him basically failed.

The cult members might not be able to beat Tone, and Batman only had a head left and was held by Tone, becoming a hostage with no resistance at all. In this case, he could only continue to delay, such as letting Tone take him somewhere to get the gear.

After checking the situation in the room, Schiller began to check the nano-gear in his hand. He opened the lid of the "lantern." Almost instantly, something completely invisible crawled onto his arm.

He could feel a very weak, cold touch, as if blown by a cold wind. Immediately after, he felt something attached to the surface of his skin, but the naked eye could not see it.

Schiller had some guesses in his heart. He took out his dagger and cut his finger lightly. Before the blood could seep out, the wound had already healed. It seems this is the magic of the nano-gear.

In addition, the hunger caused by the long-term lack of food and water supply also disappeared in an instant. His body quickly returned to its best state. This made Schiller feel quite good.

Without trying too much, Schiller chased in the direction the cult members left at the fastest speed. He found that his footsteps were light, his speed was greatly improved, and he also possessed night vision, and his senses were further strengthened.

Therefore, he could easily see the traces on the ground. After all, Tone had an injured leg, his walking steps were peculiar, and the traces left were also conspicuous. Following these traces, Schiller approached the cathedral all the way and turned into an alley not far from the cathedral.

There was a government building here, but the part above the fifth floor had disappeared. Schiller heard movement inside the building. He climbed to the second floor along the drainpipe on the outer wall. In the office on this side, he saw Tone tied to his seat, and Azrael who was soaking Batman's spine into a jar of nutrient solution.

Schiller rushed in directly and fired a burst at the tallest figure in the room—that is, Azrael. He didn't care about the bullets at all; he emptied the magazine as soon as they met, and at least seven or eight bullets shot into Azrael's body.

The other party turned around like he had gone mad. Schiller, however, didn't care about his roar at all, took advantage of his speed, held the fist blade in his hand, and stabbed it from bottom to top into his jaw. The sharp double-edged dagger of the fist blade went straight into the brain. Azrael twitched twice and then stopped moving.

Schiller did not choose to look at Azrael who fell to the ground, but took Batman out of the nutrient solution jar, grabbed the spine and swung it, and began to smash it hard against the ground.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Schiller's native strength plus the blessing of the nano-gear, he smashed it a full five times before breaking the glass jar.

"No... no!!!" Batman let out a miserable howl. "You cannot treat me like this!! Otherwise, you will never be able to complete the mission!!!"

Schiller neither ignored him nor asked him why he knew about the "mission." The fist blade was inserted from the opening of the glass jar and stirred hard. Batman's "genius brain" was completely shattered. Schiller let go and threw the head onto the ground. Brain matter and brain fragments poured out like a mudslide.

Tone, who was tied up, looked at Schiller with terrified eyes. Schiller walked over with the fist blade and said: "Don't look at me like that, I know you are not innocent either. Goodbye."

Schiller waved his hand, Tone's trachea was slit, and soon there was no movement. He clicked on the interface to check the mission, and sure enough, it did not fail.

Upon learning that they were all in cahoots, Schiller changed his plan: everyone could be Batman, so he had to save everyone. Then conversely, as long as he killed everyone, then none of them could be Batman.

The performance of the "Broken Bat" was not worthy of Batman, Azrael Paul was not good enough either, and Tone was obviously still too green. These three people only had the potential to become Batman, but turning potential into fact requires a process.

Currently, none of these three people met Batman's requirements. They wanted to become Batman, either the Broken Bat turned over a new leaf, or Azrael turned back from his prodigal ways, or Tone inherited the mantle—it always required some transformation. But as long as he killed them all before they transformed, then these three people would never be able to transform into Batman.

Schiller's speculation was correct. The mission did not fail directly, which means that these three people could not be considered the real Batman at present. Subsequent Batmen might be produced among these three people, but because they were already dead, the three of them had already been excluded from the list.

Schiller closed the mission interface and happened to see Lady Shiva, who was pale, rush in in a hurry. The black-haired woman stared dumbfounded at the blood, brain matter, and corpses in the room.

"You, you killed them all?!"

At the very moment she was shocked, Schiller had already pressed forward. Lady Shiva was worthy of being a fighting master; she instantly bent over to dodge Schiller's swing. The fist blade flashed with cold light, and a strand of black hair fell. She flipped backward, distancing herself from Schiller.

"Damn it!" she said as if she had sensed something. "Sure enough, you snatched the nano-gear!"

Just as Schiller reached out to pull out his gun, a cold light flashed in Lady Shiva's eyes, and her fingertips lightly brushed over the surface of the watch on her right hand. Schiller's movements instantly froze.

"Heh!" the snake-like woman let out a cold laugh. "Only I can control the nano-gear. You've been tricked!"

Immediately after, dots of particles began to fly toward Lady Shiva. It was not just the nano-factors that were detaching; the nanobots that left the body were also taking away Schiller's flesh and blood. The arm that had been in contact with the nanobots, and even half of his body, began to reveal white bones.

The next second, Lady Shiva's vision spun. She felt as if she had been hit by a train. Before completely losing consciousness, she saw the contemptuous smile revealed in the eyes on the half of Schiller's face that was still intact.

"Greed, Pride, time to go to work!"

After finishing, he slowly fell down as if his consciousness had been extracted.
