When the white beam of light dissipated, the ground ahead was completely shattered, leaving only a half-meter deep gully.
Some were filled with terror, some with lingering fear, and some...
Were annihilated in that terrifying destructive beam!
Then...
Bai Ye discovered that his sin value had finally reached its limit.
"Batman and the Joker, for both sides, the other is their lifelong enemy. And now, the Joker intends to teach Batman a lesson he will never forget, to completely corrupt him into a dark knight. Therefore, he needs an accomplice to help him achieve this wish. Similarly, the Order faction has its own supporters of Batman. As the person with the highest order value in the Order faction, they will do their utmost to stop you."
"You have received the mission: 'Crime City - Assist the Joker in planting bombs on the ferry.' Mission Reward: Leave Crime City, Shard of the God Stone x1."
It's coming, it's coming, it's finally coming!
The final mission after the sin value reaches one thousand.
Although there are no substantial rewards other than a shard of the God Stone, leaving Crime City is the greatest reward. At that time, Bai Ye can use his sin value to exchange for whatever he desires.
However...
This mission...
Bai Ye didn't understand it.
Planting bombs? Ferry? What's going on?
Bai Ye pondered for a moment, then decided not to think about it. The most important thing was to get the Joker out and complete the current mission.
As Bai Ye thought this, he grabbed the Joker and walked forward.
Suddenly, someone shouted, "The Joker, the Joker is in his hands..."
Before the person could finish speaking, Bai Ye suddenly raised his hand and hurled Yong Zhen Nan Huang with force.
Clang, clang...
The iron chain dragged across the ground, making a clear sound.
The next instant, the man's head was struck by Yong Zhen Nan Huang, and it exploded. A large amount of blood splattered in all directions.
"So what if he's in my hands?" Bai Ye said coldly, looking around. "If you're not afraid of death, come and take him!"
After speaking, Bai Ye continued to drag the Joker forward.
"Goodra," Bai Ye called out. "Kill anyone who steps forward!"
"Yaa~"
Goodra let out a cry and then glared fiercely at the surroundings.
Unfortunately, those big, beautiful eyes could never look fierce, but that didn't matter.
Having witnessed Meteor Shower and the destructive beam, no one would naively believe that Goodra was harmless.
Some people, unwilling to give up, wanted to step forward, but upon glancing at the crowd around them, they didn't want to be cannon fodder. Many understood the principle of "the first bird gets shot."
Others, with clear minds, turned and retreated, having no intention of competing with Bai Ye.
With so many people and only one person able to complete the mission, it wasn't that easy.
Those who were clear-headed never expected to complete the mission. Their true purpose was to fight!
Taking advantage of the chaos, they could pick off weaker targets, or stab someone in the back and take down a few experts. Perhaps they could gain more sin and order points, which was more enticing than fighting for the mission, wasn't it?
Some were even more decisive, not appearing at all. Instead, they took advantage of the chaos at the police station to go elsewhere to cause destruction or fight criminals.
There were fewer people at the back entrance, only twenty to thirty, and several had already been killed by Goodra. Among the remaining people, no one was willing to be the first to act, after all...
The corpse with its head smashed open was a stark warning.
Thus, Bai Ye, dragging the Joker, quickly left, and soon disappeared at the end of the street.
Upon reaching the intersection, Bai Ye looked left and right, then smashed the window of a parked car at the side of the road with his elbow.
Bai Ye looked at the Joker and said, "Making this thing move shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"
"Of course!" The Joker spread his hands. "This is a piece of cake for me."
Besides fighting, the Joker was proficient in almost every other criminal skill.
Squeezing into the car through the broken window, the Joker fiddled with it for a while, and the car soon started. However, the Joker didn't leave immediately.
"Hey, buddy," the Joker said, leaning his head out of the car window. "You hate Batman too, don't you? Every time I see that guy suppressing his emotions, it makes me feel constipated. Things could be so interesting, but he wants to hang out with those hypocrites, claiming to be a dogmatic follower. Ah, that's truly the funniest joke I've heard this year, ha, ha, ha, hahahaha..."
As the Joker spoke, he covered his face and burst into laughter.
Bai Ye leaned against the car body and asked, "So, what are you planning to do?"
The Joker said, "This time, I made him choose. Next time, I plan to make him watch others choose. I want to show him what the root of this city's decay is, how hypocritical those so-called upright gentlemen are. The people he's always protected are actually illusions, dirty, cheap, and annoying illusions."
Bai Ye said, "And then make him realize he's wrong? Even if he can combat the criminals of Crime City, he can't combat the filth in their hearts?"
"Bingo." The Joker grinned and extended his hand towards Bai Ye. "I like you. Besides that little bat, you're the second person I've found interesting."
Bai Ye reached out and high-fived the Joker. "What do you need me to do?"
The Joker glanced at the time and said, "I plan to start tomorrow night, turning this city into mine. The method is very simple, boom..."
The Joker made an exaggerated "explosion" gesture.
"People will panic, they'll want to escape from here," the Joker said with a wicked grin. "But they fear me. I'll tell them that the tunnels and bridges will have surprise gifts, so guess what method they'll use to leave?"
"Tunnels, bridges, meaning cars can't pass. Your goal is to prevent them from using private transportation?" Bai Ye pondered. "Planes and ferries?"
"Ah, you're so cool, I really like your answer," the Joker said. "So, guess who will be the first to board the ferry?"
Bai Ye said, "Rich people? That's unlikely, as it would cause a riot. Besides, rich people would take planes. Ordinary citizens? No, prisoners. Those guys staying here are a leftover problem. If anything unexpected happens, they're like time bombs, liable to explode at any moment."
"Bingo!" The Joker pointed at Bai Ye. "Beautiful answer. So, what do you think of this game? One ferry is filled with ordinary citizens, and the other is filled with heinous villains. If bombs were planted on both ferries, who would you choose to let live?"
Bai Ye said, "You plan to let Batman choose? No, that wouldn't be fun. You plan to make them choose each other? If you blow up the other boat, you can survive, right?"
