Chapter 572: I, Joker (11)

Translator: Lonelytree

The Bruce naturally would not sit idle with regards to Poison Ivy’s action, in fact he reacted at the first given moment. He tried to use a long range weapon to disturb the enemy.

The batarangs howled through the air. Soulie though did not pay any attention to this because she knew that... Xiao Tan would help her block this attack.

“Go to hell!” Xiao Tan did not let her down. With a growl, he leaped into the air. He appeared before the batarangs like a wisp of wind and reached out his arms to intercept them.

Ping—the metals collided and created a bright spark. Then, the batarangs with powerful spinning speed... was pierced through by the blade the popped out from Xiao Tan’s sleeves and they dangled weakly on the body of his sleeveblade.

Name: Altair’s Touch

Type: Compound Weapon

Quality: Perfect

Offense Points: Very High

Defense Point: Medium

Element: None

Special Effect: Assassin’s Blade (Indestructible sleeveblade); Perfect aim (When the sleeve arrow was shot out, the flying trajectory would be adjusted automatically)

Equip Requirement: Fighting A, Sleuthing B, bound to the player

Remark: The Hidden Blade (shoulder sheath) used by Master Assassin Altair Ibn-La Ahad. Raised to be an assassin from birth, Altair became a Master Assassin at age 24. He had modified his Hidden Blade masterfully. The new sleeveblade could be equipped without breaking a finger, the weapon was strong enough to be wielded in a normal sword fight and the accuracy of the sleeve arrow had a great improvement.

This equipment was the reward that Xiao Tan won in the Tournament for the Best. Perhaps many people would have forgotten about it already but the reward for player ranked 11 to 30 was, “A random perfect quality equipment of one’s choice that corresponds to one’s level x1 and 3000 Skill Points.”

“Phew... almost reached the limit already.” After 10 seconds, Soulie gave a long sigh and stopped the attack. Instantly the weapon on her shoulder dissolved into photons and disappeared into her inventory. At the same time, Xiao Tan who dropped down from the sky arrived at Soulie’s side, he captured her in a perfect hug and then activated the mantra again.

“Are you alright?” Xiao Tan asked with concern. At that moment, he had entered another anti-gravity state. Due to the weight difference between him and Soulie, they were slowly rising into the air.

“I’m fine. I did not lose that much Life Points or Stamina Points.” Soulie glanced at the game menu and then replied, “With Tri-Flower Capitulum Focus, all the stats will be recovered in about 10 minutes.”

“Oh.” Xiao Tan said before adding, “Sorry... this is all my fault. We have to resort to this retreat earlier than planned.”

“Who said we are retreating?” Soulie countered. “We have only bought this little time, it is obviously not enough.”

“Ah?” Xiao Tan was startled. “Then why did you hurry to blast the entire building?”

“Qie...” Soulie grumbled, “All that was to help you maintain your character of Two Face! You already said we are retreating, so I would have to follow you.” She paused. “But... nobody said we have to retreat as fast as we could, we could run slightly slower to ensure that these people will be able to tail us.”

“Oh~ So that’s the plan.” Xiao Tan nodded. “Then do you have any exact idea in mind?”

“What plan can we really commit to?” Soulie pointed behind Xiao Tan, “For now, let us go and grab one of those for ourselves first...”

Xiao Tan turned back to look and saw... two flying shutters were slowly approaching them.

...

At the same time, at the command central at the bat castle.

“What the hell... what kind of monsters are these people!” Gordon waved his fists and could not help himself from growling as he watched the ‘livefeed’ of the battle sent back by the team of robins.

“Calm down, duck.” Professor Klibon puffed on his smoke and added calmly. “Our master has not been defeated...” At this point, he suddenly lowered his voice. “... At least not yet.”

Creak—

At that moment the electric door of this room opened. Hearing that, Gordon instinctually turned towards it. It was better that he did not because once he did, he was so scared, half of his life was gone...

Two person stood at the door, one was Feng Bujue (Joker) and the other was Ruoyu (Harley Quinn). They each held two rifles (Taken from the robins) and strode into the room.

Tat tat tat—

Two seconds later, Feng Bujue’s gun fired. He took down a worker and then shouted warningly at the dead body, “Do not move!”
