As mentioned before, the first law of Gotham is that no matter how correct and standardized the beginning of something is, the people of Gotham will definitely make a mess. The second law of Gotham is that the people of Gotham do not believe in any monsters or monsters.
.
You can hardly say that the citizens of a city located on the east coast of the United States are all staunch materialist fighters, but the fact is that when the people of Gotham see anything that they cannot understand and does not exist in common sense, what do they think of?
It was definitely not some supernatural event or divine punishment or natural disaster, and what they did was definitely not just screaming and running away.
When faced with this situation, every Gotham local will have only one reaction, which is to find a gun, pull the trigger, empty the magazine, and then step forward to confirm what the things they cannot understand are.
Dead or not.
This is actually a manifestation of natural selection, because people who can only run away when startled cannot survive in Gotham City.
Therefore, after the fisherman, the first witness in the previous haunted incident, shouted those words, all the gangsters in the corridor on the third floor of the mental hospital opened fire at the same time. When the muzzle flashes lit up, the windows at both ends of the corridor were straight.
It emits white light, lighting up the dark night sky like a large searchlight.
How to describe the intensity of the firepower at this moment? To put it simply, Batman and the Joker were running around holding their heads, the Penguin and the Scarecrow were rolling and crawling, and Hell Detective Constantine almost caught a direct bus to hell.
Although the gangsters in Gotham are not pretty on the outside, they...are not much better on the inside either.
That night, first they were inexplicably awakened by a ghost, and then they were provoked into a fierce fight. After a long fight, everyone realized that they had been tricked, and they had to work hard to sweep the building and trace the case.
The gangsters have long been impatient with this ghost.
Pulling the trigger and pouring bullets is the simplest way to vent the anger in your heart. Don't worry about whether you can kill the opponent. When the bullets spurt out with anger, that kind of violence is engraved in the bones of Gotham people.
Ignited, the anger grew stronger and stronger, and began to tend to go crazy. Everyone kept attacking everything green in sight.
This did not give the Green Lanterns who had just arrived here any time to react. They did not even open their shields, but relied on the flashing green light on their bodies to resist these bullets.
The green light energy attached to the surface of the body did block the bullet attack for them, but it did not block the shock wave of the explosion. When the first rocket entered with a sound of breaking through the air, except for Hal, who had expected it, the others
Several people were all blown away.
And after they got up, the first thing they did was not to fight back, but to run away.
It is true that the green light energy is very powerful, but those who use this energy are still intelligent beings. As long as they are intelligent, they will feel fear.
Green Lanterns know in their hearts that human bullets and explosions do not exceed the range of Green Lantern energy defense. Theoretically, even if they stand in the place with the most intensive firepower, their lives will not be in danger. But theories are just theories.
For example, humans know that animals like geese are unlikely to kill themselves, but when a bunch of big geese rush towards you with their wings beating menacingly, they should panic as much as they should and run as much as they should.
.…
As soon as the Green Lanterns landed, they encountered the angry gangsters. They were chased away like ducks, running around in the corridor in a hurry, like headless flies emitting green light.
"Don't run! Don't run! Come back and organize a counterattack!"
Adjutant Carroll shouted loudly, but the Green Lanterns, who had never seen such a scene before, were really panicked. They fought on their own, jumped into the air when they saw it, desperately trying to find something to block themselves, and the formation became a mess.
In the end, Hal used the energy of the green light to pull them all back through the wall, barely holding on to the front.
"Damn it! Didn't you just receive the training?!" Carol shouted angrily: "Didn't the instructor tell you that?! When attacked, organize a defense line and joint shield as soon as possible!
!
"
But Hal next to him turned to him and asked: "They 'just received training'? Don't tell me, they are all newcomers??"
Carroll cursed and said: "I think you should be able to tell that the legion commander didn't pay attention to your words at all. The second team is all newcomers who have just taken office. They may not have the experience you have!"
Hal said desperately: "Don't run! Don't run at all! Hold the line of defense! Joint shield! Can't you take a look at the tactical manual inside the ring?"
However, there are still several Green Lanterns who want to escape through the windows. Judging from their faces, they are all young. They have obviously just become Lanterns not long ago, and these Lanterns look more like humans. They obviously come from a civilization similar in style to humans.
Therefore, the dangers of heavy firepower can be better understood.
Carol and Hal organized for a long time and finally got everyone to stabilize. The green light is indeed a light ring that represents willpower. It only took a few tens of seconds for this group of people to overcome their fear of bullets and explosives.
Out of fear, they barely formed a joint shield at the end of the corridor.
After resisting the first wave of fire attack, the next thing to do was to defend and counterattack. Soon, light waves of green energy were launched towards the end of the corridor, directly knocking several gang members away.
The leading fisherman was furious. He raised his gun and shouted: "The ghosts are fighting back! Punish them! Kill them! Let them go to hell!"
"
All the gang members were extremely angry and pressed forward step by step. They did not care about the loss of manpower and only wanted to cause maximum damage to the opponent.
The Green Lanterns who had just arrived didn't even understand what was going on. They faced such a fierce attack. Even though the Green Lantern energy was very powerful, the gangs on the opposite side not only had more people, more weapons, and more firepower, the Green Lanterns
Those who are suppressed can only fight and retreat.
But even so, the gang still felt that it was not enough. The fisherman opened fire and said to the people behind him: "Send people upstairs, call everyone down, and let the gang of boys deliver a message to the North District. We need to be more deadly."
The firepower!”
"Cobot has sent someone!" Soon a voice came from behind, he said: "Master Falcone has called the godfather, support will be here soon!"
Just as they continued to output, the Green Lanterns finally reacted from their panic and began to no longer act as stragglers but to launch attacks in an organized manner.
The fire in the hospital corridor is not a street fight in another sense. The space is much smaller than the street fight. The front line cannot be deployed at all, and the height difference is almost nonexistent. Therefore, many human weapons cannot be used because
Whether it's guns or grenades, they all cause friendly damage...
The advantage of the Green Lanterns is that Green Lantern energy has no friendly harm. Whether it is energy shock waves, energy weapons or energy shields, it is only effective for people who do not have Green Lantern energy. Therefore, they do not need to consider the arrangement of gun lines and go all out.
Just output it before.
Soon, the situation began to become tense. Then, the Green Lanterns gained the advantage, and the gangs' front began to waver, and then gradually retreated.
But at this moment, a ray of light fell from the sky, and Constantine landed in front of the Gotham gangsters.
His blond hair moved automatically without wind, his windbreaker flew up, his hands flashed with dazzling light, and with a wave of his arm, a huge silver shield blocked everyone.
He waved his hands again, drawing a smooth arc in front of him, and the complex magic array lit up under his feet. Several magic missiles flew out of his hands, passed through the green lantern energy barrier, and landed in the center of the Green Lantern's formation.
"Confinement!"
As Constantine's deep voice sounded, the magic missiles turned into chains and wrapped around the Green Lanterns. Not to be outdone, Carol solidified the green light and turned into a sharp sword. He cracked the chains in a few clicks, leaving behind
The Green Lanterns followed suit and cut off the chains one after another.
But at this time, Constantine showed a nasty smile, and the broken chain fragments turned into more magic missiles. When they bombarded the Green Lantern, it was like a blizzard falling from the sky, causing the Green Lanterns to stretch out.
He stretched out his arms to cover his eyes.
The gangsters pulled the trigger again and poured out firepower. A gap was opened in the shield formed by the distracted Green Lanterns.
With a "boom", the ceiling on the third floor collapsed, raising countless smoke and dust, making the situation at the end of the corridor confusing.
The gangsters who lost their vision could only slow down their firepower output. Constantine waved his hand, and several whirlwinds flew out from beside him, blowing away the dust.
The successive blows made it impossible for the Green Lanterns to maintain the shield with all their strength, and the gap in the shield healed very slowly. Carol turned back and shouted: "Focus on everyone! Use the power of your will, heretics and rebels,
Fear my divine light! The green light will always be on and shine forever!
"The green light always shines and shines for eternity!"
Just as they were shouting slogans, the fisherman opposite asked with some confusion: "What are they shouting? What kind of heretics and rebels are they?"
"They called us heretics and rebels???"
"They are ghosts and we are humans, but they actually call us heretics and rebels? Are ghosts so damn arrogant now?!"
“Stop talking nonsense and shoot!
"
At this moment, the green lantern shined brightly, turning the entire corridor into a faint green color. The Green Lanterns strengthened their belief, so their power increased. They flew into the air one after another and began to attack with various energy light waves.
Gangsters.
Adjutant Carroll charged forward. After floating into the air, all the bullets and explosives stopped and condensed in the air within half a meter of him. His deep roar echoed in the corridor, carrying unparalleled power:
"For justice!"
The light became stronger and stronger, and the rich green light condensed on his right arm. Then he stretched out his hand and pointed it at the gangsters in the corridor...
The originally small energy beam became extremely large with a "buzz" sound. As expected, the scene where everyone was knocked out and fled in all directions did not appear.
Constantine raised his hands, and the magical radiance covered his whole body. The magic circle under his feet expanded again, and the color changed from silver to an evil and deep dark red.
Rolling magma surged out from the center of the circle, but disappeared instantly, like a bursting bubble or a fleeting hallucination. But at the same time, a tall figure stood up and directly broke through the two-story ceiling.
, that is the hell-hating demon whose body is surging with evil energy.
An evil, deafening voice sounded in the corridor: "Who... summoned me..."
Constantine waved his arm and slapped the hater on the calf, saying: "It's me, stop talking nonsense and beat them!"
"Damn it, Constantine, why aren't you dead yet?! When do you plan to die?!"
The tall Hatred Demon lowered his head and stared at Constantine with his huge vertical boy. At this time, the green energy beam just hit him. The Hatred Demon waved his hand, and a flame barrier was ignited. In an instant, the entire barrier flew out along the corridor.
When the flames passed over Carol, the green light energy helped him resist the erosion of heat and dark energy, but it ignited cursed runes around him.
This kind of rune is not offensive, but it means that he has been marked by the devil. Anyone who can communicate with the devil can follow this mark to find him. And because the mark has no offensive power, the green light energy does not seem to be able to dispel it.
it.
The Hatred Demon looked away from Constantine, and then looked at Carol. As he moved towards Carol, he said: "Constantine, you'd better prepare the sacrifice quickly..."
As he spoke, he spit out flames from his mouth and grabbed Carol with claws surging with magma. Not to be outdone, Carol's green shield lit up and the energy shockwave swept into the eyes of the Hatred Demon.
Just when the Green Lanterns were fighting with the Hatred Demon, a burst of crazy laughter came from the hole where the ceiling had collapsed, and they heard a high-pitched voice shouting:
"The clown's surprise is here! Cheer for it!"
"boom!
!
!”
After a loud noise, the main building of Arkham Psychiatric Hospital collapsed.
The Joker can be regarded as an expert in using explosives to attack various buildings. Even those buildings built by the Wayne family that are quite strong and have layers of defenses are still unable to withstand the bombs arranged by the Joker, let alone
An old, battered psychiatric hospital?
The moment the clown heard laughter, Constantine moved everyone with him, and they appeared on the side of the road some distance away from the mental hospital.
Looking at the slowly collapsing building, Constantine smiled unscrupulously.
But soon, he couldn't laugh anymore, because, in the dark night sky of Gotham, a meteor-like light slipped from the end of the sky. Then, it became bigger and bigger in the field of vision, and the missile's tail flame illuminated the entire sky.
It's like daylight.
In Schiller's manor, Merkel arranged a guest room for the two children staying overnight. Dick was just about to go to bed when he felt the floor beneath his feet shake.
He turned back curiously and opened his eyes in shock. Outside the floor-to-ceiling window of the bedroom, on the city skyline, after the fire exploded, a huge mushroom cloud rose into the sky.
