Chapter 293 Batman

"what?!"

The sudden turn of events caused everyone in the alley to change their expressions drastically.

The pupils of the two white-masked men shrank, and they stared at the luxury car in astonishment.

From the broken car door, a young Asian man in a bespoke suit stepped out with a broad smile, brushed off non-existent dust, and said slowly and deliberately:

"Hey you guys, you all seem pretty smart, how come you're so careless?"

"Before kidnapping me, you didn't even bother to do a proper investigation. With my current wealth, how dare you venture into Gotham City alone? Even a fool would know you have something to rely on, right?"

A slightly amused voice echoed through the alley, attracting everyone's attention.

At the same time, in a corner unnoticed by anyone, a jet-black bat recovered from its shock, thought for a moment, and quietly retreated into the shadows deep in the alley.

"...Are you a psychic?"

The white-masked man on the left snapped out of his daze and stared intently at Su Haoming.

Su Haoming thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Pretty much!"

"So what if they have superpowers?"

"This city has no shortage of freaks like you!"

The white-masked man on the right sneered and fearlessly shouted, "Kill him!"

Before he finished speaking, the two men in black behind him stepped forward and rushed towards Su Haoming like lightning.

"Oh!"

The death of their companion seemed to have no effect on them; their dark eyes remained as cold as ever.

Looking at it this way, it doesn't seem like a normal human being at all...

Su Haoming looked thoughtfully into the eyes of the two men, then stretched out his right hand and easily caught the whip leg that was sweeping towards him, sending it flying into the air. Then he clenched his right fist and slammed it at the sharp claw that was swinging from the left.

"Bam—"

In an instant, a surge of energy burst forth from where their palms collided.

The man in black's hand instantly exploded into a cloud of blood mist, accompanied by a series of cracking sounds, clearly indicating that his entire arm had been shattered by the punch.

"The strength is impressive; it certainly doesn't seem like that of a normal human."

Su Haoming looked at the man in black whose arm he had crippled with some surprise.

But to his even greater surprise, the other party's twisted arm, stained with blood, began to slowly reposition and heal under the influence of some force.

"It even has self-healing abilities?!"

Su Haoming became interested and immediately laughed loudly, "Now I'm even more interested in you!"

Laughter rang out, but the two men in black remained expressionless, continuing to launch fierce attacks on Su Haoming with superhuman speed and strength.

"Damn it!"

The white-masked man on the left had a gloomy expression, his eyes fixed on the three people fighting in front of him.

He himself also has a certain fighting ability, so it can be seen that Su Haoming was just toying with these two claws.

If it weren't for his interest in Claws' abilities and his desire to see the limits of their self-healing power, Su Haoming's terrifying strength, which he had just displayed, would have likely killed both Claws in an instant!
This time they've really messed up!

The white-masked man on the left gritted his teeth, his fear mixed with his glare at his companion on the right, clearly furious at his reckless actions.

Why did you provoke him?!

The white-masked man on the right looked grim, knowing he had made the worst possible choice.

But he couldn't admit his mistake under these circumstances, so he glanced at the bodyguards around him and said angrily:
"What are you all standing there for? Shoot!"

"..."

The bodyguards around looked at each other, clearly hesitant.

The white-masked man flew into a rage, immediately drew his pistol, and shot the driver next to him dead.

Smoke filled the air, blood splattered everywhere, and the driver's body fell to the ground with a thud. His blood-stained face still bore the look of shock and bewilderment before his death.

The white-masked man stepped over the corpse and surveyed his surroundings in a sinister tone.

"Shoot, or die!"

The crowd's expressions shifted, but none dared to defy the white-masked man's authority.

With gritted teeth, they pulled out their pistols and pointed them at Su Haoming in front of them.

"call--"

Just then, the surrounding air currents suddenly surged, turning into howling gales that swept everyone except the white-masked man into the sky.

Terrified screams came from above, quickly turning into screams and groans amidst a series of thuds.

Looking at the numerous bodyguards lying haphazardly on the ground in front of him, the white-masked man showed a look of terror, couldn't help but shout, and turned to run towards the nearest vehicle.

Upon seeing this, another man in a white mask couldn't help but start cursing.

But there was nothing he could do; his teammate had already made some terrible mistakes, so he could only run away as well.

"call out--"

Just as the white-masked man at the front was about to open the car door, a faint whooshing sound suddenly came from behind.

The white-masked man, who was a step behind, noticed the sound and instinctively turned his gaze. He saw a silver light flash before his eyes, instantly piercing through his companion's palm and pinning him firmly to the car door.

"what!"

The screams of his companions came from ahead, but the white-masked man ignored them.

A pair of eyes were fixed intently on the gleaming silver dart in his palm—

"Bat darts?!"

The white-masked man's pupils suddenly contracted, and a trace of deep-seated fear appeared on his face beneath the mask.

The next second, he whirled around, drew his pistol from his waist, and pointed it menacingly behind him. But the alley behind him was deserted. Instead, a dark figure quietly emerged from the black luxury car, its gaze indifferently fixed on the wailing white-masked man below.

"Boom! Boom!"

Two muffled thuds were heard, and both white-masked men were knocked unconscious.

Without a word, Batman leaped off the roof of the car, swiftly pulled a dart from the door, then spread his arms, hoisted the two unconscious white-masked men onto his shoulders, and turned to run into the depths of the alley.

"call out--"

The whistling air swept over my head and struck the wall, easily leaving a hole the size of a fist.

Debris flew everywhere, and Batman froze, but could only slowly stop to avoid being attacked again.

"Hey bat over there, I kindly didn't reveal your whereabouts, and you still want to steal my kill, huh?"

Su Haoming's dissatisfied voice came from behind.

Batman remained silent, only turning his head slightly to glance at the battlefield behind him.

At the same time, Su Haoming seemed to have given up on studying his opponent's self-healing abilities during the battle.

With a single step, a pale blue vortex appeared out of thin air, lifting him into the air and causing the two men in black to miss their attacks.

Then, he stepped on the vortex, looked down at the two men in black below, and gently raised his right hand, snapping his fingers in Batman's slightly shocked gaze.

"Snapped!"

call--

In an instant, streams of air rushed in, condensing into translucent wind ropes that bound the hands and feet of the two men in black, suspending them upside down in mid-air.

After doing all this, Su Haoming turned around and made eye contact with Batman below.

Batman: "..."

I've seen the look in their eyes; they're someone I can't beat for now!

He was silent for a moment, then finally spoke, in a rough and hoarse voice:

"Who are you exactly?"

"That's a very nice question..."

Su Haoming landed on the car roof, looked down at Batman and said with a smile, "You've been squatting up there for so long, didn't you hear their conversation?"

"Just like they say, I'm just a rich, naive Asian tycoon!"

Sure enough, this guy had already spotted him!

Batman's heart sank, then he looked at Su Haoming and said calmly, "The person who would believe that is already lying on the ground."

"Ha ha!"

Su Haoming laughed heartily, then jumped off the roof of the car, smiling as he stretched out his hand: "Just kidding."

"Let me formally introduce myself. My name is Su Haoming, I'm Chinese, and I'm a superhuman!"

Looking at Batman so close to him, Su Haoming couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.

For days, he had been trying to meet Bruce, but he couldn't find a way. Unexpectedly, Batman himself appeared in front of him!

Is this Murphy's Law?

While Su Haoming was feeling sentimental, Batman was thinking rapidly.

Judging from Su Haoming's performance just now, his superpower should be manipulating the air.

This ability is indeed quite strong, especially the flight ability that it indirectly provides, making it extremely difficult to deal with.

However, putting aside mobility, this kind of air-based ability is still quite easy to deal with.

For example, the wind ropes currently binding the claws can affect particle movement by heating the air with high temperatures, causing the airflow to collapse from the inside...

Thinking of this, Batman felt a little more at ease. He then silently memorized the name, ignored Su Haoming's outstretched right hand, and looked at him calmly, saying, "What happened today was just an accident."

"If you still want to do business in Gotham City, you'd better forget what just happened and hand these two over to me..."

"That won't do!" Su Haoming shook his head and said righteously, "I am the victim of this kidnapping case. Even if I'm going to give these two people to you, shouldn't I at least have the right to know?"

Victim?

Batman smirked and silently glanced at the haphazardly lying crowd around him, their fates unknown.

Su Haoming noticed his gaze, immediately coughed, and said seriously, "No matter what, I'm determined to investigate this matter. If you don't want to tell me, then I'll interrogate you myself!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand, drawing the two men in black from the air to his front.

"One last chance..."

Su Haoming said calmly, "Who exactly are you?"

Batman stared silently at Su Haoming, then shook his head after a moment and said calmly, "Don't ask anymore. These claws are brainwashed killing machines. They only obey orders and have no ability to think for themselves."

"Claws?"

Su Haoming caught the key words and looked at him with great interest, saying:

"From what you're saying, it seems you're quite familiar with them!"

"certainly……"

Batman turned his head and looked calmly at the white-masked man on the ground, saying, "After all, I wiped them out once ten years ago."

"is it?"

Su Haoming chuckled, "Looks like you weren't completely wiped out!"

"Tell me, who exactly are they?"

Batman paused for a moment, then slowly said, "The Court of Owls."
