Chapter 58 My Father, the Head of Demons! (Seeking follow-up reading, collection and monthly ticket investment)

Talia was protected and walked into an ordinary apartment building. After entering the elevator, she turned on the hidden button and went straight underground.

The elevator moved downward, making a humming sound, very slight, but very loud to Talia's ears.

This was not because she had good hearing, but because the failure she had just experienced made her upset, and everything that went wrong was magnified in her eyes.

Moreover, Talia cannot vent her emotions because her fate is not in her own hands. If the mission fails, she will first face the punishment of the person who truly controls her fate.

Ra's al Ghul, the leader of demons, is known as the "Master Assassin"!
700 years ago, there was a Master Assassin with another name, who was a minor noble. He traveled between the East and the West, learning knowledge and honing his martial arts.

By chance, he discovered the Pool of Lazarus in a cave on the Arabian Peninsula and met his wife Soya.

At that time, the prince of a nearby tribe was suffering from a terminal illness or was injured and was on the verge of death, so he came to Lars al Ghul for help.

So he took the prince to the swamp for treatment, but he didn't expect that the swamp had side effects. Users who took too much would lose control of their minds. After the prince recovered, he went mad and killed Sawyer.

But the king did not acknowledge the prince's guilt. Instead, he captured him, sentenced him, and tortured him by locking him up with his wife's body.

After escaping from prison, he abandoned his original name and changed it to Lars al Ghul, which means the head of the devil in Arabic, and destroyed the country that killed his wife.

Since then, he has relied on the Lazarus Pool to gain immortality, and used his own abilities to form the Assassin's League, intending to correct the mistakes made in human history and uphold justice.

But 700 years later, Ra's al Ghul has become a true demon king, pursuing a paranoid justice that is terrifying.

Even though Talia is Lars' biological daughter, she is still the same when facing her father.

Ding!
The elevator opened, and Talia's body stiffened. She took a deep breath, walked out of the elevator, passed through the underground space supported by two rows of pillars, walked to the room with gauze curtains, and half-knelt on the ground.

"Father, I have failed your expectations!"

Talia bowed her head and admitted her mistake. She was very nervous, but she didn't dare to make any unnecessary movements.

"I already know the situation. Come in and talk, my Talia."

Lars' voice was very gentle, like an old father calling his daughter, without any blame.

Talia was feeling uneasy. She lifted her veil and looked at her father standing at the window, not knowing what to say.

Lars had a slightly bald head, and his face was covered with wrinkles and age spots. His robe was embroidered with gold patterns and hung with all kinds of jewels, making him look like an emperor.

"You should bring Damian back with you."

Lars turned around and said nothing about his daughter's failure, only mentioning his grandson with regret.

"Damian is not my own son, it's time for that bastard to take responsibility."

Talia's words were full of resentment towards Bruce.

Lars felt helpless and regretted helping his daughter give Bruce drugs. If it weren't for the child, the two of them wouldn't have been so connected.

But Lars soon put this regret far behind him, and said to his daughter: "The Joker has been killed, Bane's whereabouts are unknown, and the mysterious Court of Owls has now disappeared. What do you think we should do now?"

Lars was not very willing to attack Gotham this time.

After the great defeat several years ago, he realized that he was old. If he wanted to defeat his former disciple Batman, he would need to find other powers, so he disappeared.

But at this moment, Talia came to him with Jason Todd, determined to defeat Batman and destroy Gotham.

Lars noticed his daughter's ambition, but he didn't care much. The Assassin's League was just a toy to him. Batman had severely damaged the League several times, but he still managed to revive the organization.

Lars would be happy if he could use this toy to help his daughter take a step further.

So this time, he stayed behind the scenes the whole time and did nothing except confront the Joker and summon Madame Shiva.

"I can not be reconciled!"

Talia bit her lip and said bitterly, "The situation was originally very good, and the plan was always progressing steadily, but in the blink of an eye, the plan collapsed completely. I really can't accept this!"

Lars took out a stack of documents: "Then come and take a look!"

Talia quickly flipped through the files, frowning. From these files, she finally realized the existence of Martin. But these investigations were incomplete, and she only knew that there was such a person, but she didn't know what the other party did.

"Father, what is the origin of this person?"

Talia couldn't wait to ask her father.

Lars shook his head. "I know, and you know it now. He is the shadow warrior who stopped you. He rescued Bruce Wayne, defeated Bane, and killed the Joker. Maybe... maybe the Court of Owls disappeared without a trace because of him."

"So you want to leave just like that?" Talia slammed the documents on the table. Although it was a rhetorical question, it also made her attitude clear.

Lars did not try to persuade his stubborn daughter, but only said, "What are you going to do?"

Talia became excited instantly: "We still have the venom left by the Joker, and the underground passage that the Penguin helped to open up. With these two things, we can also drag Gotham into the abyss of destruction."

"If you insist, I won't stop you."

Lars placed his hand on his daughter's shoulder and said in a deep voice, "But don't think about dying. Moving forward is what a pawn should do. What we should think about is how to preserve our own strength."

Just like that, in just a few words, the father and daughter made the decision to drag millions of people in Gotham into hell, as if they were just stepping on a few ants.

And their conversation fell into the ears of Martin who sneaked in.

He looked at the shadows of Lars and his daughter hesitantly, then turned his gaze to the computer that recorded the blueprint of Gotham's underground network.

But just as his hand touched the chassis, Lars suddenly shouted, "Who is it?"

The devil's hand pulled out a long sword inlaid with emerald green gems and slashed out a ray of burning sword energy. A strong smell of sulfur spread, and the carefully decorated room instantly turned into a hell.

Click!

Although Martin had already mobilized the shadow to wrap the chassis, the outer shadow was torn apart by the devil's flames, and the chassis recording the information turned into fragments on the ground.

"It's careless!"

Martin didn't take it lightly and retreated directly into the Shadow Realm to look for the venom left by the Joker.

Lars immediately ordered to turn on all the lights, illuminating every corner of the base.

Martin looked at the brightly lit base and sighed in his heart that Lars was a hundred times smarter than his daughter. They had only met once, but the other party had found a way to crack the shadow.

He informed Barbara and Dick of the situation here, came out of the base, and transformed into a hybrid of the Giant Shadow Soldier and the Claw Shadow Soldier. With his huge body and sharp claws, he tore the ground and chased Lars and his daughter in the simplest way.
