After Nightwing successfully destroyed the helicopter of the Assassin Alliance in a cool way, he regretted it five minutes after entering Arkham Asylum.

This place has gone completely crazy!

The elite warriors of the Assassin Alliance have already withdrawn from the main building, blocking any life from leaving the surrounding area. However, they have opened all the doors of the wards in the asylum.

Over three hundred individuals with severe mental illnesses, mania, and antisocial personality disorders are having a "liberal party" in the asylum where they are being held.

But in Nightwing's eyes, it seems more like a Darwinian carnival.

He hid in a storage room between the third and second floors, watching the fire ring ignited by Killer Moth in the lobby on the first floor, a large group of weird guys dancing and enjoying themselves around the bonfire. Meanwhile, the Two-Face, dressed as a prisoner, stood high up, raising his hands to act as a temporary "judge."

He kept flipping coins to determine the fate of those guys he didn't like.

"Tails! Death by fire!"

The madman with half of his body and half of his face severely burned shouted, triggering a loud cheer from the villains below.

Then, a struggling guy was dragged and thrown into the burning fire ring.

What's even more absurd is that the person thrown in is not a staff member of Arkham Asylum, but a member of these patients. In theory, they should be considered their "comrades."

Who knows how this poor guy offended Two-Face.

"Fortunately, the most troublesome one didn't show up."

Nightwing, this time, did not wear the bat suit but his usual patrol suit, without a cape to cover him, making him look more neat.

The highly recognizable "Gotham Butt" was also showing off its charm in the darkness.

He counted one by one in the storage room and did not find any trace of Zhou Kuo'er in the chaotic crowd below, which relieved him.

Although it is a terrible disaster for all the lunatics in Arkham to escape, it is a completely different concept if the Joker is involved.

"Where are Two-Face, Calendar Man, Mr. Freeze, Mad Hatter, and Riddler? Poison Ivy seems to be missing too. I just saw Mudface running around outside and even heard Killer Croc's screams?"

"KGB Beast seems to have been injured by a bomb, and I don't know where Professor Pyg has gone."

The hiding Nightwing muttered to himself and took out a notebook to record.

He originally wanted to solve this before the crisis in Arkham broke out, but now that he recognized all those guys who participated in the "party" one by one, he no longer had the idea of "doing justice and righteousness."

With this exciting scene, even Batman himself would probably be at a "slight disadvantage" if he rushed down. Plus, the members of the Assassin Alliance outside, who had sealed the city tightly, Grayson was already planning to retreat.

However, before retreating, he had to at least figure out what had happened here and provide Batman with some actionable intelligence when they met.

Even in the face of a crisis, the members of the Batman family still act in an orderly manner.

Obviously, they were taught well by the master.

"Why didn't the Joker appear here? Doesn't he always love this kind of chaotic scene?"

Nightwing frowned and thought. In the instant he made up his mind on the action plan and prepared to leave the storage room, a pair of hands suddenly reached out and pressed on Grayson's chest, pushing him back into the storage room.

Grayson, who was attacked, reacted quickly. He drew out his combat sticks from behind and splashed dazzling arcs of electricity, smashing them towards the person in front of him. But in the next instant, relying on years of training, he managed to stop the attack.

Taking off his invisibility cloak and hood, Mason, who did not wear a helmet, ignored the arcs of electricity still jumping in front of his forehead.

He looked at Nightwing in front of him with eyes that seemed to see dead people and said, "Grayson, do you know what you're doing?"

"Mason?"

Nightwing, surprised, retracted his weapon and said softly, "Why are you here? Wait, was that person riding a strange flying motorcycle just now you?"

"Of course, let's go!"

Mason put on his gray helmet, opened his cape, and gestured for Nightwing to come over. The latter approached and covered himself in the invisibility cloak while looking suspiciously at Mason's new suit.

Although it is very different from the bat suit in detail, the overall design style is definitely imitating the bat suit, so Grayson naturally made an association.

In the moment when the invisibility cloak concealed the two of them, he whispered, "Mason, why are you here? And why did you attack me just now?"

"Shut up."

Mason said impatiently.

He put on his helmet and, at the same time, ignored the arcs of electricity still jumping in front of his forehead.

"Can you explain why there is a big blue bird on the chest of your suit? Is this some kind of vulgar innuendo? Or is it the latest fashion trend from the Bloodhaven side?"

"I refuse to answer that question!"

Nightwing said with a straight face and finally closed his mouth.

The two of them quietly moved forward under the heads of the crazy people and lunatics who were holding a "burning" ritual, and when they finally approached the balcony, Mason breathed a sigh of relief.

He closed the door of the balcony corridor while throwing away the flying motorcycle. Meanwhile, Nightwing, who was next to him, asked, "What happened to Batman? The Bat Network has been silent for two whole days! I was worried about him, so I rushed to Gotham to check, and then I found the Assassin Alliance was acting crazy here. The city is in chaos. A guy named 'Red Knight' attacked the police station and Wayne Tower and released all the prisoners in the city's jails. The gangs have also taken advantage of the situation to cause trouble. Once the guys from Arkham break out again, Gotham will be finished!"

"The situation is complicated, so after you go, see it with your own eyes. I won't answer any questions."

Mason shook his head.

It is indeed difficult to explain what has happened in the past few days in just a few words. Although Afuo confirmed that Grayson is a trustworthy person, Mason still doesn't plan to get involved until the mole in the Batman family is found.

"Get on!"

Mason jumped on the motorcycle and snapped his fingers at Nightwing. The latter looked at the car compartment that popped out from the motorcycle in a very unscientific way and was dumbfounded.

But as he was about to get on the motorcycle, a sudden gust of wind shot towards him like an invisible arrow, making it impossible for Mason to dodge in time.

Nightwing, who was next to him, was directly blown away.

Grayson was hit against the wall, but when he fell, he immediately flipped and drew out his combat sticks.

Mason also raised his gun, but at the same time, a roaring wind rushed from all directions, forming invisible chains that pulled the young man down from the motorcycle and suspended him in the air.

This is the first time Mason has been attacked without any ability to fight back.

The attacker must be much stronger than Mudface or Killer Croc, but he didn't attack Mason. Instead, he appeared in the gray sandstorm and fought with Nightwing.

Nightwing's combat skills, personally trained by the master, are extraordinary, but with Mason's current physical fitness and Nightwing's close combat ability, they probably won't last more than ten moves. However, the unknown attacker is obviously even more powerful.

Nightwing's combat sticks, which were charged with high voltage, did not cause any harm to him when they hit his body, as if they were just a floating "sandstorm."

On the other hand, the punches and kicks from the attacker brought tremendous force that overwhelmed Nightwing, and the wind and sand on the ground constantly restricted him.

After just half a minute, Nightwing was sealed in a "stone pillar" made of sand and stone.

"Bang!"

A precise karate chop hit Grayson's neck, knocking him unconscious.

The attacker finally appeared at this moment, in the gray sandstorm, a tall and thin man with a strange golden battle bow and a mask on his face appeared on the balcony.

In the moment he saw him, Mason's heart tightened.

Not because of fear.

Well.

There is indeed some fear.

But more because of the cape on this guy's body.

The cape, reflecting the black starry sky, covered his body, and combined with the star-shaped mask, it revealed his identity.

This is a member of the Starry Sky Society!

Moreover, judging from his combat power, he is not inferior to Mr. K. He is a high-ranking member!

"Why did you appear in my operation without reporting it?"

The man did not attack Mason. He just asked with a strong dissatisfaction, "Which team are you from?"

"The K Squad."

Mason immediately reported his affiliation.

And struggled to pinch out his bronze "employee card," and when he saw this thing, the anger in the man's eyes obviously decreased.

He said with surprise, "I remember the captain of the K Squad is a silent lunatic, right? Isn't there news that his team was just wiped out? Did they reorganize? And why did you become the captain?"

"He died."

Mason said sadly, "He died in the mission to rebuild the team. May his death please the Dark Stars and illuminate our path."

"Ah, yes, yes, that's how you talk when someone dies."

The attacker obviously found this set of rhetoric very annoying. Hearing the news of Mr. K's death, he didn't show much reaction. He didn't even bother to disguise himself and just said with a kind of curiosity in his eyes.

"Just a rookie captain, let me give you some advice, my friend. You may not know the significance of becoming Mr. Hunter's vassal. But now, I have to ask you to leave my mission area."

"Of course, I apologize for the trouble caused to your K Squad."

Mason said sincerely and then dragged the unconscious Grayson into the car compartment.

Before leaving, Mason looked at his counterpart who disappeared in the sandstorm.

He said, "Although it may be presumptuous, I still want to know how many squads our organization has in this world. Mr. Hunter has given us a mission to stay here for a long time, so I want to know more. Mainly to avoid such embarrassing situations from happening again."

"This is not a secret in the B-level member circle, but theoretically, you shouldn't know. But since you are Mr. Hunter's vassal, it doesn't hurt to tell you."

A gust of wind stopped next to Mason, and the man named Sandstorm said in a short tone, "Including the Six-Headed Snake Squad, there are a total of four squads operating simultaneously. Only one in North America, one in Europe, one in Asia, and the remaining one is a flexible support squad. However, after this operation is over, we will all withdraw from this world. I advise you to apply to Mr. Hunter to temporarily leave as well. Three-Headed Dog, believe me! You don't want to know what is about to happen here."

"Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Sandstorm."

Mason waved to the dissipating sandstorm and said, "I will apologize properly for tonight's disturbance when I return to the Starry Sky Fortress!"

Theft is never good, try looking at bit.ly/3iBfjkV.

The last trace of sandstorm quickly dissipated in front of the young man. After confirming that there were no remaining surveillance powers on him, Mason started the flying motorcycle.

He discreetly left Arkham Asylum, which was beyond salvation, with the unconscious Nightwing, and until the two disappeared into the night sky, Mason's heart was still pounding.

The "Arrival Day" plan of the Assassin Alliance is actually cooperating with the Starry Sky Society!

A pioneering squad led by a B-level member is helping them, and there are three other squads operating simultaneously worldwide.

Combining what Mason learned from Mr. Porter's diary about the signs before the end of the world, he can easily guess what these four advanced squads are going to do in this world!

Damn it!

This is not just a small disaster concerning Gotham.

This is a global crisis!

There is a big problem.

Mason thought to himself after taking advantage of his identity to obtain information. But what's even better is that only he knows this secret now.

A few minutes later, when he descended from the sky, he saw Gotham City under the night sky. The burning Wayne Tower came into view, and a bat symbol made of flames was burning on top of the iconic building in Gotham. It looked like a sign of chaos approaching, as well as a provocation and a claim to sovereignty.

The Assassin Alliance has started to take action, and perhaps Gotham's destruction is imminent.

But Mason is not interested in the fate of this city under his feet now. A more important and troublesome question is in front of him. How should he deal with this situation?

Should he take the risk of exposure and tell Batman the information he has discovered? This kind of situation probably requires the entire Justice League to take action, right?

As for whether to help the Starry Sky Society.

What a joke!

I've mistakenly joined the Blackstorm Organization again, and I need to clear my name!

Just the act of sending out the message itself should be considered as infiltrating the enemy's ranks as an underground worker, right? And it can also improve the favorability of the Justice League.

Is there even a need to choose?
