The world needs more heroes

Dick didn't come back to the Metropolis for a whole week.

Philomena didn't know if the Bat family had a new mission, but she just vaguely heard from Athena that Bruce Wayne and his four sons had all returned to Gotham in recent days. It's to catch a gangster family involved in human trafficking.

Philomena didn't care about this matter, and she also felt how much control freak Batman was in the endless pursuit some time ago, and she didn't plan to provoke him.

Anyway, half of the metropolis is enough for her to be busy with Supergirl.

Nightwing often coordinates and cooperates with supergirls in the metropolis. On the contrary, it is Overwatch, who is in a state of seeing the king with these two superheroes of the Justice League. It cuts off the patrol area of ​​the metropolis and maintains a certain relationship. There was a tacit understanding that well water does not violate river water, and it was not until Ye Yi did not return to the metropolis for a whole week that this tacit understanding was broken.

Philomena noticed that Supergirl couldn't take care of the patrol area that originally occupied three-fifths, so she took the initiative to expand her patrol area to half of the metropolis.

That day she arrived at the scene of the accident earlier than Supergirl, and took care of the robbers who robbed the Metropolitan Municipal Bank by herself. Just after finishing the group, she saw Supergirl fall from the sky and landed in front of Philomena.

At that time, Philomena was wearing the newly drawn Genji skin, a set of legendary skins called [Evil Ghost].

This set of evil spirit skins does not have an exact setting in the game, but from its appearance, after a little understanding of the information, Philomena probably understands that it is a product that combines several Japanese historical legends. .

The big sword on Genji's back is engraved with "Muramasa", which is the name of the sword maker. In Japan, there is a sword that has been demonized by legend, which is the demon sword Muramasa.

Legend has it that the character of the knife maker Muramasa is brutal and bloodthirsty, which even affects the swords he forges. Therefore, there are legends that those who hold these swords will go crazy and kill everyone who comes close.

The Wakizashi at the waist is engraved with authenticity. There is no special legend about this knife maker. At least what Philomena saw was ordinary historical facts.

As for the silver-white visor that originally covered the face, it was also replaced by the famous Japanese [Prajna] mask.Hanja is a monster in Japanese legends, a resentful spirit produced by women's strong jealousy, the source should be the great noble light Guangji in the Heian period, and one of his lovers, Rokujo Goshisho.

Compared with the original skin at the beginning, this skin looks more like an ordinary human with a mask, and the clothes on his body are not so close-fitting, but it can still deal with the enemy neatly in battle, and it will not be because of those The relatively loose clothes cause inconvenience in combat.

This is why Philomena chose this set of skins, which looks a little more unobtrusive.

"Genji?" It was the first time for the super girl who descended from the sky to see Genji like this. According to the information she learned, Genji should be a cyborg ninja with a silver-white armor, not the scary and gloomy one now. Also wearing a ghost mask.

The super girl even felt that she couldn't tell whether the Genji in front of her was a man or a woman from this appearance, so the tone of her question was a little weak, and she sounded uncertain.

The reason why Philomena didn't leave immediately after solving these robbers was to inform Supergirl that she would share part of the work before Nightwing came back.

"We noticed that Nightwing hasn't appeared in Metropolis for a week." Philomena said, the system's character setting correction also affected Philomena's voice, and now her voice has some microelectronics The texture of the synthetic sound, the deep and hoarse voice came into the ears of the super girl.

"Ye Yi has a personal matter these days and won't come to the metropolis. I will take over his job. You don't have to worry."

"You can't do it. This is supposed to be your jurisdiction, but you're late." Philomena didn't let the super girl have room to speak, but her tone didn't change much, as if she was informing the super girl on a business-like basis. Like a girl: "Overwatch will take over a portion of Nightwing's jurisdiction under Metropolitan surveillance."

"Wait..." The super girl was stunned for a second, and just about to call Genji, she saw the elusive ninja disappear in the public, the blond girl blinked blankly, and muttered to herself: " Do ninjas come and go without a trace like this?"

The semi-omninic ninja, who came and went without a trace, was suppressing his anger at the moment, holding a small, ant-sized robot in his hand. The robot's body was already broken.

Philomena gritted her teeth, and asked Athena silently in her mind: 【Can I find out who it is? 】

[All core data has been destroyed, and the source of the signal cannot be found. 】Athena's voice sounded in Philomena's mind after a second, and the girl's face was slightly distorted. With a strong hand, the powerful force of the omnic directly crushed the robot in her hand. .

She was found.

Tony Stark knew that his tracking of Philomena Olsen would be exposed sooner or later, so he put a lot of effort into tracking the robot, in order to quickly destroy all the data in the control center when the robot was exposed.

When his AI steward informed him that the robots had self-destructed, he called back all the tracking robots he had released.

He had indeed locked the girl's identity, but it was far from the time for a showdown and revealing her vest.

The puzzle is not solved yet.

During this period of time, apart from the daily research and development and the work of the Avengers, Tony was soaked in the laboratory, tracking all the information about Overwatch.

Maybe part of it is because Sombra—a Latin girl who claims to be the most powerful hacker in the world—casually invaded the firewall he built, and even played him, Cyborg, and Batman in applause, making the His self-esteem was terribly wounded.

But after tracking down Philomena Olson, Tony wanted to know what made an ordinary female high school student living in ordinary New York and living an extremely ordinary life raise the sword in her hand.

Seriously, where on earth did she learn ninjutsu and sword art?

What about the obvious mechanical body? Is the mechanical body a disguise, or the current human body is a disguise.

The biggest change in the girl's life was being adopted and the death of her adoptive parents. How much did these two things change her, and even made her join an unidentified secret service organization?

"Housekeeper, withdraw all the systems that monitor Philomena Olson, and destroy all these materials. I want all the materials to never be traced."

"Got it, sir."

And just when Tony Stark's investigation of Overwatch has begun to take shape, the situation in Gotham is not optimistic.

There is no definite target that Batman can rule out. Finding the flaws of Overwatch members all over the world is like looking for a needle in a haystack, and the other party even has a powerful hacker who can erase all traces.

Batman was helpless.

After all, there is a suspicious character, and then tracking and observing that person is much simpler than searching all over the street without using technological means.

And now Bruce Wayne's situation is even worse. Tracking down the members of Overwatch has made him busy, and Gotham has recently seen another large-scale human trafficking incident.

The first person discovered in this incident was Red Hood, the former second-generation Robin Jason Todd.

The hot-tempered superhero destroyed a stronghold of the organization in no time, and rescued more than a dozen mutant children, who are now in the care of Professor X, the head of the X-Men.

But that was just a base.

When Batman handed these children over to Professor X, he made a request that Professor X must keep his mouth shut until the end of the incident. The most important thing is that he must not let the Brotherhood and Magneto know about it.

Things happen in Gotham, and Gotham has its own way of dealing with it.

Professor X agreed, but he could only guarantee that he would try his best to delay the time, and Batman needed to crack down on this mutant trafficking organization as soon as possible during this time.

Bruce didn't have much time, so he put down Overwatch, which he had been chasing recently, and set his sights on this trafficking incident first.

The stronghold that was uprooted by the Red Hood was just a stronghold of a subordinate organization, and there was no useful information. He assigned the Red Robin Tim Drake to track the incident.

The last clue leads to the Canberras, a middle-class Gotham family attached to that of Oswald Copperpot the Penguin.

But this incident has been investigated by Batman and has nothing to do with the Copperpot family. Penguins are better at things related to interests such as arms smuggling, stealing, intimidation, etc., while buying and selling mutants has higher interests. Risky things are not his style.

Must go to the Canberra family.

Just when Batman made such a decision, Nightwing and Red Robin brought him bad news.

The Canbella family was wiped out, and the whole family, from old to young, from human to dog, was spared.

The only one who is still panting is an old housekeeper whom the two of them tried their best to save, but he won't live long.

The old butler knew who the killer was, but he didn't say a word unless he saw Batman.

The communication between Nightwing and Red Robin came urgently. They placed the dying old butler in the safe house, not far from the Batcave, and Bruce arrived in time.

The old butler was breathing in pain, the breathing sound from his chest was like a holed cloth bag, leaking strange wind noises.

"Nine, Hydra, Snake──" The old housekeeper, who was reluctant to speak, breathed in pain after seeing Batman, while holding on to say the word.

Batman was standing beside the bed, and the old butler stretched out his hand to grab Batman's robe, pulling it tightly. Following this slight force, Batman slightly bent his body and moved his head closer to the old butler's side.

The old housekeeper was already dying, and the bullet in the muzzle of the gun had not been taken out. He knew that his life was passing away, maybe it was a flashback. It was difficult for him to speak a word, but he endured great pain, like Confessing something: "I have...lived in, the Campbell family, in my life, but I only did, one wrong thing──"

"I—"
