American comic book: After mastering resurrection, I became incredibly popular.

"I thought you'd start by criticizing the second half of your sentence..."

"answer me!"

"Ahem, because it's too chaotic outside, and the prison is safer!"

"Besides, didn't your boss steal something from Bane a while ago? His pet bird even died because of it. I remember his name: Bobby, right? I resurrected it. I have that ability. You can ask your colleagues."

"He made a deal with me before he was arrested. That's why he was willing to give me this brooch."

"Don't worry, I can contact him anytime. Although he's in prison now, Black Gate Prison is a place he knows very well."

Ultimately, we're all in the same boat now.

He picked up the brooch again, blew on it, polished it with his clothes, and then put it on himself.

"Now you can call me: Emperor Penguin!"

Lak: "..."

“I know you are wary, but why not think about what the Penguin Gang is really doing right now?”

"Several core gang members are either dead or missing, and the police are still keeping a close eye on you..."

"Meanwhile, Arkham is in complete chaos. The mastermind behind tonight's breakout is Bane. Bane has a grudge against Cobblestone and even killed Ogilvy. He's been eyeing the Penguin Gang's territory for a while now..."

Upon hearing this, Lark frowned, but her attention suddenly shifted entirely to another place.

"Don't speak."

Her voice suddenly lowered, her gaze fixed on the ever-growing headlights in the rearview mirror.

……

At the same moment, Alfred was sitting in the driver's seat of the car, looking at the limousine in front of him with a furrowed brow.

He saw Wang Baixi get into someone else's car with his own eyes.

His car had already arrived, but he didn't turn in.

He wasn't sure why Wang Baixi was doing this, nor did he know where the woman soliciting customers came from, so he didn't rush forward to stop her. Instead, he kept a distance of about thirty meters behind the car.

But he couldn't call Wang Baixi right now, fearing that he was negotiating with that woman.

An unexpected phone call is not only inappropriate, but it could also complicate matters further.

At that moment, the communication channel inside the car lit up.

"Alfred, have you received the King?" Tim's voice came through the loudspeaker. "If you have, return to the manor as soon as possible. The Oracle said there are many people watching the manor, so be careful to avoid them."

"Tim, I'm still on my way. Mr. Wang got into someone else's car, and I'm following him."

"Someone else's car?"

"Yes, I remember that car, it looks like it belongs to the Penguin."

"Penguin?"

“It must be his men driving,” Alfred said, glancing at the road in his rearview mirror. “I think I have a way to get them to stop…give me a little time.”

“Be careful, Alfred. One more thing: we just confirmed the list of Arkham escapees with Huntress. It is known that Mr. Freeze, the Riddler, Victorzas, and dozens of other serious offenders have escaped.”

"The Riddler is in the Diamond District, and the Freeze is in the Upper City area..."

“I’m in the Upper District.”

"What? Then you leave right now!"

“But Mr. Wang is still in that car,” Alfred said calmly. “It’s alright, I’ll play it by ear.”

Before his voice had even faded from the communication channel, a yellow taxi in the rearview mirror caught his attention...

……

"God! I have a wife, please spare me!"

The taxi driver's face was filled with terror, and he was still shouting something, but his voice was torn to shreds by the roar of the engine.

Sitting in the passenger seat was Mr. Freeze, Victor Frith.

Mr. Freeze wore his ever-present transparent hemispherical glass dome, along with red goggles, and the frost on his face was as cold as his tone of voice.

“I also have a wife, sir. So you need to hurry.”

With one hand, he pressed a freeze gun against the driver's temple, while with the other hand, he knocked the driver's hand off the steering wheel and grabbed it himself.

Meanwhile, he stared at the limousine ahead, his eyes narrowing into slits behind his red goggles.

He jerked the steering wheel, and the taxi cut across at an almost overturned angle, its wheels screeching against the ground, directly over Alfred's car and blocking the limousine's path.

The driver closed his eyes.

The sound of the impact exploded in the night sky.

The front of the limousine was completely crushed, and the trunk of the taxi was blown off, with debris scattered all over the ground.

Alfred slammed on the brakes, bringing the car to a stop less than two meters from the point of impact. Through the windshield, he saw a figure crawling out from the pile of twisted steel ahead.

It's a person who has been subjected to premature freezing.

He slowly climbed out of the car, stood up straight, completely ignoring the wrecked taxi behind him, and then looked up at the limousine.

Through the gap in the car door, Lark used her shoulder to push open the deformed door, and Wang Baixi followed behind her. The two of them rolled out of the car, covered in dust.

"I've found you."

Then, Mr. Freeze picked up his gun.

Chapter Thirty-Four: I'm Too Popular

When Wang Baixi crawled out of the deformed car door, only one thought was in his mind:

This guy is definitely Mr. Freeze Victor Frith: Soldier Boy... oh no, undoubtedly the most stern father of those Claws.

The question is, how did Mr. Freeze find him?

Could it be a killer crocodile?

It is likely that the resurrected reptilian giant returned to Arkham and widely publicized his ability to resurrect others.

"But does he remember what I look like?"

Putting those doubts aside, Wang Baixi quickly guessed why Mr. Freeze was looking for him.

The only thing this most notorious cryogenic criminal in Gotham City cared about in his life was his wife Nora, who had been frozen for decades.

He guessed that the man came to him to see if he could really bring the dead back to life.

After figuring this out, Wang Baixi was certain that he would not die!

But that doesn't mean Mr. Freeze is easy to talk to.

"Easterner, you're coming with me." Mr. Freeze's cryogenic gun was pointed directly at him, his voice coming through the visor of his helmet.

"Don't even think about it." Lak shielded Wang Baixi behind him.

She shook her head, which was still dazed from the impact, and drew two short knives from her waist.

"No, you've accepted being the second-in-command so quickly and without any qualms?" Wang Baixi was startled.

“I don’t want to kill anyone,” Mr. Freeze stated calmly.

"Then you will die!"

Lak didn't really want to protect Wang Baixi; she just wanted to avenge her humiliation after her fall. But before she could finish speaking, Mr. Freeze had already pulled the trigger.

A beam of icy blue light shot out from the muzzle of the freeze gun, and Lark rolled to the side to dodge it. But the car door behind her was hit by the beam and instantly froze into a huge block of ice.

As she rolled, she swiftly flung out a short knife, the blade aimed straight for the man's face.

Mr. Freeze tilted his head slightly, the dagger grazing his helmet and leaving a pale white scratch on the glass. He turned his gun, preparing to fire the second beam.

This time, Lak didn't have time to dodge.

But Wang Baixi reached out his hand.

He flicked his finger at Mr. Freeze.

A thin beam of purple light shot out from Wang Baixi's fingertip and accurately pierced the frozen man's chest.

[Hit target, experience points +10!]

To onlookers, it looked as if Mr. Freeze's body had been struck from the inside; his finger slipped from the trigger, and he stood frozen in place for a full second.

"What...what did you do?" Lark asked in surprise as he hurriedly got up.

But then Wang Baixi looked away: the taxi driver from before had already climbed out, and he said to the driver, "Run!!"

The driver, recovering from the impact, ignored the pain and his survival instinct drove him to run away immediately. Mr. Freeze turned to look at the driver's back and wanted to aim his gun.

But Wang Baixi still didn't give him a chance to pull the trigger.
