"Someone betrayed our location to those agents."
Bruce said, he helped Clark up, let him lie on the bed, and then explained: "Just now, Lex and I were hunted down. I rescued him first, and then came to you."
Before Clark could ask, Bruce continued: "His body is weaker than yours. When I got there, he had been knocked unconscious by the agents."
"Are these agents crazy?!"
Clark asked very puzzledly, Bruce still said in a deep voice: "At first, they may have thought that we killed Benjamin, so it is not surprising that they would hunt us down."
"But now, it is obvious that someone has bewitched them. That is a lunatic who is best at inciting people. They have completely turned the agents into our enemies. Now the situation is a bit out of control."
"That is to say, they are really crazy." Clark concluded.
"I..." Clark was about to say that he could lead this group of people out of here. Bruce seemed to have expected what he was going to say, and he still said in a low tone:
"Didn't you notice? There is some kind of force that is affecting this manor. Everything here is starting to become a little abnormal. I will find out all this, otherwise this abnormality may affect the entire metropolis."
"I've wanted to say it for a long time." Clark hesitated, sighed, and said, "I feel a little uncomfortable, the same way I did when I first came here."
"Under what circumstances would you feel like this?" Bruce asked with a frown.
"I don't know. I have never been sick before. I have always been healthy and I have never felt like this." Clark said very confused.
"That is more proof that there may be problems underground in the manor." Bruce touched his chin and speculated: "Lex told me before that his father knew that there might be evidence of secret human experiments conducted by previous mayors underground.
"
"This kind of human experiment may be related to radiation, which means there may be a huge radiation source underground."
Clark immediately sat up from the bed and said, "We have to find this thing! We can't let it affect the citizens of Metropolis!"
"Now, those agents regard us as enemies. They are searching for us throughout the manor. There are many of them, and each of them has weapons."
"I'm not afraid of them. No matter where I encounter them, I can escape. But you and Lex can't. I can't leave you alone, because that madman has seduced the agents, and they may kill you.
"
"I...actually I just need to lie down for a while." Clark was still trying to sit up from the bed. He didn't want to be the one holding him back, but he soon discovered that things were getting worse and worse.
His strength is indeed recovering, but after reaching a certain level, the recovery speed slows down, and the same is true for the range of the biological stance. In other words, the upper limit of his ability is temporarily weakened.
"It has been exactly two hours since you first became weak until now. I guess that the radiation underground in the manor may be periodic." Bruce reasoned very seriously.
"I have a bad feeling." Clark's expression became serious. After regaining some strength, he sat up from the bed. He shook his head and seemed a little silent. It seemed that it was difficult to explain his intuition to Bruce.
source.
At this moment, another series of noises came from the corridor, which sounded like running footsteps. Bruce walked to the door, opened it a small crack and took a look, and found that the agents were running down the stairs in groups.
.
"We have to get out of here, do you still have the strength?"
Bruce ripped off the sheet, twisted it into a rope, then went into the bathroom and tied the knot around the pipe.
Clark hesitated for a moment, but the noise outside became louder and louder, so when Bruce jumped out of the window and came to the windowsill downstairs, Clark also walked to the window.
Bruce looked up at him, seeming to be urging him silently, but Clark did not pull the sheet, but flew out directly under Bruce's surprised gaze.
Although he was still weak, it didn't take much effort to fly out of the window, and it only required descending two floors, so the landing was very smooth. Clark turned to Bruce next to him and said: "Okay, I admit, I am
There are some abilities beyond ordinary people.”
At this moment, a window two floors above them was opened, Lex's head popped out, and then he threw a coil of rope towards them. Bruce grabbed the rope, jumped, and came to the side balcony.
Go up, then step on the wall and walk up.
Clark made a gesture on the spot. He looked around to make sure there was no one else around, then took off and flew directly to Lex's room.
Lex glanced at Clark, then at Bruce, and said: "...He is indeed your helicopter engine."
Bruce ignored him and walked directly to the center of the room. He looked at the furnishings here and found that this room had not been modernized and looked like a servant's room that had been abandoned for a long time.
"You need to go up here through the secret passage downstairs. It's not easy to walk there, so it's safe for the time being." Lex held on to the window frame and looked out the window. The yard of the manor was full of agents.
Clark stepped forward and said in a somewhat anxious tone: "We have to think of a way quickly to find the thing that may have radiation, and we also have to resolve the misunderstanding between us and the agents..."
Lex frowned, with a hint of anger between his brows, and said, "Resolve the misunderstanding? There is no misunderstanding between me and the dead man."
"You...you want to kill them all?" Clark's eyes widened, as if he heard something incredible. He stammered: "This...isn't this enough? Even...but..."
"Did they hold back when they shot you? They wanted to kill me, why couldn't I kill them?"
Lex reached out and touched the back of his neck. There was still blood stains on it, which were injuries he had received from the previous attack by the agents.
He walked up to Clark, stared into his eyes and said, "Because of your strength, these ordinary people cannot harm you. Of course you can pretend to be generous and tolerant of them."
"But if Wayne hadn't arrived in time, I would have died in their hands. I was just seeking revenge."
Clark looked at him and fell silent, because he knew that what Lex said was right, but he was still very resistant to killing people.
Except for Clark, the other two people didn't have any anxious expressions on their faces, because they knew that the agents had nothing to worry about, and they had plenty of ways to get around these people. The only problem was the "comedian" who leaked their unknown information.
At this moment, there was a "boom" and the secret door on the floor was knocked open again.
This time, the sound that sounded first was not the sound of footsteps, but the sound of bullets being fired. The sound of gunshots from repeating weapons was like a violent storm. Clark, who had his back to the secret door, turned around instantly, stretched out his hands, and stopped the bullets.
Bruce opened the window and said, "Let's go!"
Bruce jumped out first, Lex was a little slower, and finally, Clark flew out directly in front of the agents, but this time, there was no balcony directly below them, and they had to jump diagonally downwards.
Bruce jumped over first. He rolled as hard as he could on the narrow balcony, but was still hit in the arm. Lex didn't dare to jump at all, because he knew that his strength was not enough for him to jump over. Once he was gone,
Jump over, this is the sixth floor, he will definitely die.
Clark flew directly into the sky, then held Lex's arms from below and jumped down with him. The two fell headfirst on the balcony. After getting up, Lex's forehead was cut.
Clark took two deep breaths.
After his strength was weakened, his flying ability has changed from flying 360 degrees at will to an ability similar to gliding. Carrying a person with a heavy weight consumes a lot of Clark's physical strength.
The few people didn't have time to talk nonsense, so they opened the door on the balcony and rushed in. Unexpectedly, there was a guest in this room. Bruce could only rush up with one stride, knock out the lady who wanted to scream, and then put her
Drag it into the bathroom.
When he walked out, he rolled up his sleeves and saw that his elbow joint was swollen. The impact just now caused him serious injuries.
"This won't work. That person should be in a place like the control room. He can see the situation in all rooms, so he can provide detailed real-time location information to the agents,"
"In this way, we will always be in the middle of an encounter being chased, and the opponent not only has a pistol, but even a repeating weapon. If we run away like this, we will always be at a disadvantage."
As he spoke, Bruce looked around, trying to find the location of the monitor, but there were many patterns on the ceilings and walls of the English manor, and there were various complicated patterns on the furniture. It was difficult to tell where the monitor was.
What position.
However, the feeling of being watched left Bruce with a thorn in his back. At this time, Lex said: "We need to test, is there a delay from the monitor to the monitor screen? The person opposite sees the monitor screen and calls the agent.
Was there a delay? Was there a delay in the agents taking action after they received the message?"
"Once these are combined, it is likely to leave us with a buffer period, and we can use these delays to lay traps and deal with them."
"I think so too." Bruce confirmed this idea, but he looked at Lex and Clark and said, "The only problem is that you two are not in good condition."
Bruce crossed his arms and stared at Lex and said, "If we want to test, we have to lead them for at least two laps. Your physical strength may not be able to support you in running."
"And him..." Bruce looked at Clark again and said: "Although I speculate that the radiation burst may occur once every two hours, but the data is insufficient, the inference may not be accurate. Once it breaks out in the middle, you will immediately lose the ability to move."
"But now, I'm much stronger than you all." Clark stood up. He glanced at Lex and said, "You explore the way in front, I can take him with me."
"I'm not afraid of bullets. I can fly and am much faster than you. I can also sense their location. Once I get weaker, you can leave immediately and leave me alone. They can't kill me."
"I really don't know where your ridiculous confidence comes from?"
Lex stared directly at Clark and said, "Haven't you noticed yet? Those agents are crazy. They dare to shoot anyone."
"What I'm saying is not that they dare not kill me, but that they cannot kill me."
At this time, Clark looked serious and his voice was full of convincing power. He said:
"Impacts, sharp weapons, bullets, flames, and all weapons in the world, as long as I don't want to get hurt, nothing can hurt me."
