Chapter 154: Gotham’s Current Situation
3/5 weekly chapter, enjoy.
After coming out of Miller Harbor, Mathison took out his clothes, which were protected with special waterproof bags.
Then he disguised himself as an ordinary Gotham citizen.
Charlie didn’t need to make any changes, he has only to be the dog he already is.
Hmmm… a dog is disguised as a dog, it seems perfect.
Mathison and Charlie sneaked down the streets of Gotham.
In the past, late at night like this, it was rare to see a few people occupying the streets in Gotham.
But it’s completely different now.
Bane used a nuclear bomb to hold the entire city hostage, so that people in Gotham couldn’t get out, and those outside of it couldn’t get in.
Even the authorities seem to have completely given up on helping Gotham.
Originally, they could have still looked forward to Batman’s rescue, but several days have passed, and Gotham’s Dark Knight still hasn’t appeared.
Gradually, everyone fell into despair.
And desperate situations are often the perfect soil to sow sin and sorrow.
Humans are inherently evil creatures, but in normal tis people will subconsciously suppress their tyrannical desires.
Only under certain specific circumstances can that tense string break in an instant.
Evil desires that have been repressed throughout their life will burst out at this mont.
Coupled with countless gangster fanatics taking the lead, bloody scenes were everywhere.
Almost every inch of Gotham was stained with blood, and corpses beca very common in the city.
So were bodies of civilians, so were bodies of GCPD police officers, and so were of gangsters…
There were conflicts between gangs and citizens; policen and gangsters; gangsters and other gangsters; citizens with other citizens; and citizens and policen as well…
Sotis, perhaps a word or a glance triggers a fight.
In the end, intact bodies are rarely seen.
Sotis, you may accidentally step on a broken finger walking down the street.
If you are clumsy or too scared, you may also trip over a broken arm or even a broken leg scattered on the ground.
The most tragic of these were the bodies of won and children.
When human beings are completely dominated by their animalistic nature, the consequences are terrible.
Female bodies were bleeding everywhere, and this latter was the direct cause of death for many of them.
But children…
Without any descriptions, even one look can make you feel unspeakable anger and sadness.
Mathison’s fists were subconsciously clenched. He never thought Gotham would beco like this.
Whether it was a movie or a comic, what is shown is ultimately just the tip of the iceberg.
People watching only know that the city will be destroyed by a nuclear bomb soon, and the whole city may be gone with a kaboom!
But what they don’t know is that the most terrifying period is not when the nuclear bomb explodes but way before that.
You can never imagine what choices human nature takes.
At this ti, Gotham was no different from purgatory on earth.
It was not as desperate as it is now, even in the most chaotic tis before.
The power of gangs has completely ruled everything in Gotham, destroying the previous order.
Black Mask, Penguin, and Bane are expanding their territories of influence every day. And even if they have established cooperation on the surface, conflict is secretly intensifying.
People have no choice. Food and water are all under the control of gangsters. If ordinary citizens want to survive, they can either kill others and snatch other people’s materials, or join forces and fight alongside other gangs.
As for the supplies in the supermarket, they were robbed by maniacs as early as the first day.
Any place where food is hoarded is either occupied by the Penguins or taken care of by Bane.
The war will never stop until the problem of nuclear bomb is solved.
Among them, Black Mask is the weakest party. After all, he has just co out of the asylum. The power of the Sionis family has shrunk significantly and now relies on Roman himself and Deadshot to save the day.
When Mathison and Charlie moved, they deliberately avoided the places where the crowd rioted and chose so places where no one walks.
Even so, they still run into many thugs who have lost their minds.
Although he knew they were pitiful, Mathison knocked them out…
Before knocking out the last person, Mathison sidetracked out a lot of information.
In the end, he also looted these people’s belongings, and disguised as one of them.
“What’s our plan now?”
Mathison and Charlie climbed to the top of the building, and it was much safer and faster to make their way up here than down below.
The danger is certainly there. However, it is less intense compared to the number of thugs on the ground, whose only goal is to kill people.
Because in the sky above Gotham, there were hundreds of ard helicopters patrolling, and thousands of small surveillance drones shuttling between various tall buildings.
Bane set up three hundred outposts on tall buildings all over Gotham just to guard against those who liked to walk on roofs.
At this ti, Mathison and Charlie were hiding in a location that drones could not reach. Although he still needs to be careful not to be found by ard helicopters, it is the safest place for the ti being.
So, Charlie started talking about Mathison’s plans.
“Before everything starts, we need to confirm whether the GCPD has been decimated and whether there are any survivors.”
Mathison rubbed his chin.
“We now need a proper identity that we can use for a whole week: until the night of the full moon.”
“But this is not the most important thing. I want to find Gordon and Jas Jr. first. I must know whether they are dead or alive…”
—————–
“I have to make sure that my father and little Jas are dead or alive now.”
anwhile, near the shoreline, a dozen miles west of Miller’s Harbor, two other stowaways from New York landed on Gotham soil.
Yes, these two people are Barbara and Pala.
They are much luckier than Mathison. Because this place has just been patrolled, it will be safe for at least ten minutes.
Well, the real reason is that Pala first used her plants’ perspective to take a look upon the environnt before finding a safe location.
As a result, Barbara and Pala successfully sneaked into Gotham.
The two won were not able to disguise themselves, and for them, finding a safe house was much more troubleso than Mathison.
Fortunately, Pala can directly manipulate large trees to change shape, leaving a space in the center that can hold the two won.
There was no possibility of being discovered this way.
The lack of electric light makes the surroundings rather dim.
But they cannot be picky in such special tis.
Barbara and Pala discussed the next move in the big tree.
As for how the two won are now united together, it’s a long story…
