My days as a landlord in Gotham

The sky seemed to be broken, and the heavy rain kept falling, which made the weather in Gotham even more depressing.

In the dilapidated house, there were constant screams, but the people around were trying to block the children's ears besides closing the doors and windows.

As for what happened there?

No one cares, they only care about whether they will be affected.

Why didn't anyone call the police?

Because even if the police were called, the Gotham police would not come here to investigate.

If you let those people know that someone called the police while they were doing business, then the person who called the police afterwards will definitely be asked to have a good chat.

So everyone has long been used to not asking for trouble!

At the place where the incident happened, the cold rainwater mixed with bright red blood flowed wantonly on the ground, and then rushed into the gutter with the garbage on the ground, and finally along with the needles, condoms and other various things in the gutter. Trash flows into Gotham Bay.

If there weren't so many dead bodies lying there, maybe this community is the cleanest now, but those broken corpses and pieces of meat have greatly destroyed this cleanliness.

And if you look closely, these corpses don't seem to be human.

Li Lei felt that he could hardly lift the wand in his hand. This was the first time he had fought hundreds of werewolves.

Although many of these werewolves were old, weak, sick and disabled, even so, the werewolves made it a little difficult for them to cope with their physical strength alone.

Especially in the back, many werewolves who lost their combat effectiveness began to use desperate tactics to exchange their lives for their lives, hoping to exchange their own sacrifices for their companions' fatal blows.

Li Lei poured recovery potions, energy potions, and stamina potions into his mouth at no cost, but he still felt the magic overdrawn.

"It's a pity that the elemental power between heaven and earth is too thin in this era, otherwise a direct range-killing magic will solve all this."

Li Lei couldn't help complaining in a low voice.

"You shouldn't provoke us!"

Not only did Li Lei feel overdrawn, but the werewolves were at the end of their strength.

Looking at the loss of his own group, the werewolf leader couldn't stop his heart from twitching.

His own tribe used to be the most powerful werewolf tribe in North America, but after this battle, any werewolf tribe would have the ability to annex itself.

But before that, it seems that keeping one's own life is the most important thing.

"You're a mercenary too, you know we mercenaries work for money.

But what you just did goes way beyond revenge!

Among the clansmen you killed, there are children who are waiting to be fed, and there are also old people who are very old, and you don't even let them go?

You are not revenge, you are killing! "

"Heh, since when is there a difference between justice and injustice in killing?"

Li Lei sarcastically said, "To kill is to kill, there is no difference between justice and evil.

From the moment you take on this mission, you should have the awareness of the destruction of the entire clan.

Could it be that you think I'm a bully, so you guess I won't take revenge on you?

wrong!

If it was before, I might have endured it.

But now, and in the future, I will not bear it any longer.

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth!

I will repay you a hundredfold for the persecution you have inflicted on me!

So, are you feeling the feeling of fear and hopelessness now?

This is how I feel hearing you invade my home.

Well, since you and empathy have experienced it, then I will send you to die! "

Li Lei shook his wand, and a gust of wind attacked the werewolves visible to the naked eye.

It was not the first time that the werewolf leader saw this spell, and this spell was already his nightmare.

He knew that as long as he was hit by this spell, the place hit would be cut open.

And what frightened him the most was that the incision would burst open, making the wound extremely irregular and filled with various curses. No matter human art or magic, there was nothing they could do about such a wound, except to die in pain.

When the werewolf leader thought he had avoided the first attack, the second and third attacks followed.

In an instant, several companions died under this spell.

The leader of the werewolves howled, and the rest of the werewolves continued to rush towards Li Lei desperately.

Li Lei tapped his feet, and a kite jumped into the air, its cloak flapping in the strong wind.

Li Lei muttered something, and then saw several fireballs hitting the werewolves who attacked him.

When the fireball hit the werewolves, they heard the werewolves with extremely high defenses screaming in pain, and then saw their fur burned by the fireball, and the accompanying magic damage continued to erode their flesh, making them feel more pain .

The wind was strong, the rain was urgent, and the screams became less and less.

But the people around pushed the heavy furniture against the locked doors. At the same time, the men picked up planks and hammers, and they quickly sealed the windows of their homes.

Mothers comforted their terrified children, old people knelt before God and begged for mercy, whether it was guns or kitchen knives, men and sons who were about to grow up held the only weapons in their families, hoping to protect their families at the last moment .

The indifferent lightning pierced the dark Gotham sky, and the rumbling thunder made the originally depressing city even more dull.

Li Lei's arm was already dripping with blood. It wasn't his blood, but the blood of those werewolves.

Fighting to the end often has nothing to do with tactics, everything is instinct, whoever is more capable will survive to the end.

Just as Li Lei used Tai Chi to throw the werewolf who had just rushed towards him out, the leader of the werewolf found that he was the only one in his tribe standing alone on a pile of corpses and pieces of meat.

If it wasn't for the heavy rain that washed away the blood here, the Gotham police wouldn't be able to avoid things here just because of the soaring smell of blood, right?

Although the leader of the werewolf still wanted to rush over, let himself be relieved from death.

But he didn't stand up again, but knelt there, like a coward who was completely defeated.

"Let me go please!

Please, I am willing to be your slave! "

The leader begged Li Lei to spare his life.

"You have no backbone than your people!

Look at those clansmen of yours who died with regret, can't you be proud of them for the last time? "

Li Lei looked at the leader coldly, "As long as you still have a little bit of backbone, I am willing to let you die like a soldier.

But your humble appearance now makes me feel that if I kill you, I will insult my wand! "

"If you feel insulted to your wand, I can do it for you, my dearest little lion."

While Li Lei was speaking, a green light hit the werewolf leader.

As if the god of death had come in person, the leader of the werewolf was killed quietly.

In the heavy rain, a black figure appeared in front of Li Lei, "Look at you, you are completely soaked."

"What are you doing here?"

Li Lei frowned and looked at the man in front of him.

The black medieval suit contrasted with his pale face, and a wand studded with sapphires was played between his fingers.

No matter how rainy or windy it is, there is not even a trace of moisture on the fabric of his high-end custom-made suit.

"Don't you know I'm looking for you?

I will kill you with my own hands! "

"If you want to kill me, you have a lot of time.

And if you're still wearing these wet clothes, you're going to get pneumonia in no time. "

He waved his magic wand, and the surging magic power made Li Lei unable to resist at all.

I saw that all the clothes on Li Lei's body were taken out, and then a warm spring water wrapped Li Lei's body, and finally Li Lei changed into a brand new suit.

And when Li Lei, who had changed his clothes, stood in front of him, the wind and rain never fell on him again.

"How about it?

Handcrafted from the finest tailors in Old England Savie Row.

It's a good thing I remembered your size, otherwise that stubborn guy wouldn't cut it.

If it weren't for the clothes he made were so docile and comfortable, I would have killed him.

But in order not to let mortals tarnish his income, I now leave him in my castle to make clothes for me.

Besides me, there is only you. "

Li Lei suddenly felt that the author had changed the channel. Could it be that the author was also transported to the modern Danmei channel after he time-traveled?

What's the matter with this overbearing president falling in love with my writing style?

Li Lei took out his mobile phone, ready to send a message on WeChat to ask the author.

However, before Li Lei sent out his WeChat, he realized that his body seemed out of control.

"It's not a good habit to be inattentive on a date."

He smiled and said, "Speaking of which, we have dated several times, it was my negligence not to invite you to my house as a guest.

However, my home has been under renovation some time ago, and it is not considered complete until now.

Before your visit, it was just me and my servants in my house. "

He tapped his wand, and a portal appeared in front of Li Lei and him.

He took Li Lei's hand and walked through the portal.

The moment the portal closed, the Red Queen, the Committee and the Time Bureau all issued an alarm because Li Lei was missing.

For the committee and the time bureau, this kind of disappearance was really terrible, because they couldn't find Li Lei in any corner.

It was as if Li Lei had never been in this universe, and the only evidence that Li Lei was still in the universe was that Ted's system binding had not been lifted.

As long as Li Lei is still in this universe, the system will continue to exist, and Ted's binding relationship will continue to exist.

But where is Li Lei?

If there is a heaven in the world, then Li Lei is sure that it is right in front of him.

Li Lei appeared in a beautiful courtyard at this time. Among the blue sky and white clouds, the sun was shining warmly but not scorchingly; on the flowers and green grass, butterflies were dancing with the wind.

During the interspersed with the chirping of birds and the laughter of the girls' silver bells, a few small fish occasionally jumped out of a gurgling stream.

"Welcome home, Master!"

A girl in a plain white dress appeared in front of Li Lei and him. The thin silk like cicada's wings created an ethereal demeanor outside her dress, and a delicate red rose was sandwiched in her long golden hair.

"In the future, he will also be your master."

He introduced Li Lei to these girls.

So the girls quickly welcomed Li Lei with sweet and warm smiles.

As if knowing that he didn't want to be disturbed, the girls left quickly.

No matter how bad Li Lei's eyes were, he could tell that these girls were definitely not human beings, but their pure temperament and unearthly appearance showed that they were definitely not goblins or ghosts.

Perhaps seeing Li Lei's doubts, he said lightly, "They are all nymphs.

In ancient Greek mythology, they were spirits who served the gods.

But with the decline of the Olympus gods, Nymphs are gradually dying out.

This is the nymph I found with great difficulty, do you like having them serve us? "

"Mr. Riddle, I think I don't understand what you mean."

Li Lei asked, "For example, not long ago, you let werewolves attack my apartment.

They would have absolutely no ability to enter my apartment without your magical assistance.

Don't you want to explain something about this?

Also, you and I are destined to become sworn enemies, what do you mean now? "

"Will you listen to the old men on the committee?

They say that if we want to be sworn enemies, do we have to be sworn enemies?

Why can't we be friends?

Be a couple?

Even, what about being a family member? "

Riddle picked a pink rose from the rose fence beside the road, and with a touch of his magic wand, the pink roses turned into a rain of flowers all over the sky.

"This is my place, and even the system can't interfere here.

We can live here forever if you want.

Wouldn't you like to be greeted by nymphs with beautiful freshly bloomed flowers every morning when you wake up?

Then, in the singing of the elves, I will change into today's clothes for you.

In my castle, there is the best food and wine, we can enjoy it every day without thinking about whether there is an alien invasion on the earth.

Even if you want, you can have a few children for me.

Of course, it is also possible to change me to live for you.

As far as magic is concerned, there is nothing impossible. "

Li Lei didn't speak. Compared with the gloomy and oppressive Gotham City, this place is really a pure land of bliss.

There are no troubles and hustle and bustle here, as long as you enjoy the beauty of life, it is enough. I am afraid that the Elysee Palace where Hades lives is nothing more than that.

But Li Lei suddenly opened his eyes and said, "I don't want to stay here, Mr. Riddle.

If you insist on keeping me here, then there is only one battle between you and me.

Either you will bury me here, or I will leave here alive. "

"Is it only possible for your corpse to stay here?"

Riddle muttered to himself.

"The reason why the Elysee Palace in the underworld is known as the only pure land of bliss among the three worlds is that there has never been any blood stained there, I thought I could do it too.

My dear little lion, do you know what you say no to?

If you don't want to stay here alive, then die here! "

Just when Li Lei was caught off guard, the wand in Riddle's hand turned into a sharp dagger, and this dagger pierced into his chest very quickly.

Li Lei suddenly felt that his lungs were filled with blood, and every breath seemed to be in water.

All he could do was gasp for breath, and every gasp filled his mouth with blood.

The hypoxia and lack of blood made Li Lei's thinking blurred, and he only felt the warmth on his lips.

Just when Li Lei was about to sink into the darkness, he suddenly felt his body lighten up.

He opened his eyes and saw that Riddle was crying while hugging his dead body.

The fresh blood had stained the green grass on the ground into bright red, and his body was lying powerlessly in Riddle's arms like a rag doll.

Riddle waved his wand, and the petals of countless flowers covered his own blood.

As if nourished by fresh blood, those delicate flower petals looked extraordinarily weird.

Riddle called the nymphs, and the nymphs removed Li Lei's clothes with sad expressions, and then put Li Lei's body in the mountain spring water to wash gently.

The goblins sang sad dirges beside them, and amidst the dirges, the nymphs dried Li Lei's body and changed into clothes made of white silk and satin.

The nymphs adorned Li Lei with gems, hoping to make Li Lei look like he was just sleeping.

Finally, they put Li Lei on a flower bed covered with white roses.

At this time, Riddle appeared again, and he also changed into the same style of clothes as Li Lei.

He waved his wand and chanted ancient spells in front of the flower beds.

The light of the magic wand slowly enveloped Li Lei, and then turned into ten thousand years of solid ice.

"Did you like your funeral?"

While Li Lei was watching all this, a calm and old voice rang in his ears, and Li Lei was so startled that he almost lost his footing.

He knew that since his death, although he could still see that world, there was already a huge gap between him and that world.

He was cut off from all other senses in the real world, so he could only read their general thoughts from their expressions and lips.

And this was the first voice he heard after his death. Li Lei turned around and saw a white-haired old man in a gray-white suit standing beside him.

"You don't know me, but you know me.

But I know you very well, and I even know a lot of things that you don't know. "

The old man blinked slyly, "You can call me the system, yes, I am the system that maintains the actual operation.

The system in your body is actually me, but my consciousness rarely comes to it. After all, you also know that I am very busy. "

"It was you who tricked me into this system, and now I'm dead here again, aren't you responsible?"

Li Lei suddenly asked the system as if he had caught a key person, "And I'm dead, how do you deal with this guy?"

"him?

It's okay if he wants to live in this place now.

Speaking of which, you have completed the task.

You see how much your death has stimulated him, a generation of heroes who don't even have the thought of tossing the world.

I also made a ten-thousand-year ice coffin for you, just to keep your most beautiful appearance for him to pay tribute to. "

The system said, "As long as he doesn't go out, he can do whatever he likes here.

So I say, your mission is accomplished.

Unfortunately, the system rewards are no longer available. "

Li Lei felt that the black line on his forehead was about to come out, but he still said calmly: "Don't make jokes, old man.

With your ability, it should be very easy to revive a person, right?

Don't pretend to me that you don't know, I clearly see that there are resurrection scrolls for sale in the system store.

Although the price of the scroll is a bit outrageous, as long as there is a price, it means that it can be purchased.

You see, I have completed the system task, just reward me with a resurrection scroll. "

"No."

The system rejected Li Lei without thinking.

"If I reward you with the resurrection scroll and cause you to be revived, you must leave here; and once you decide to open this place, then Riddle will also leave here to make trouble in the real world.

If Riddle returns to the real world, then your mission will not be completed, so where is your reward?

Since there are no rewards, where do you have any resurrection scrolls?

See, you're still here in the end, you can't be resurrected. "

"According to your logic, I just need to die here?

Anyway, now I am in an intermediate state of completing or not completing the task. According to the original logic, I should be in the state of completing the task and receiving the reward, but if I receive the reward, the task will become unfinished.

So, I'm in a very special and very weird state right now?

Or, I'm the human version of Schrödinger's cat, right? "

Li Lei said with some displeasure, "But since you can't revive me, and I helped you solve your most troublesome enemy, why are you still showing up?

Are you chatting with me just to stimulate me? "

"Actually, I can't say that. After all, I haven't chatted with anyone for a long time. It's hard to meet you."

System Road.

"Isn't it only the soul of a dead man who can talk to you?

You are afraid that no one will chat with you. "

Because he knew that the system was unwilling to resurrect him, Li Lei's tone towards the system was not so polite.

Anyway, he is already dead, can the system let him die again?

"Okay, I just passed away, so I won't chat with you if I'm in a bad mood."

"Who said the soul of the dead can chat with me?"

The system said, "Didn't I tell you that we are in a very special situation?

Besides me, only you can achieve this state.

And technically speaking, you are not completely dead.

It has to be said that that kid Riddle is so proficient in magic, he even knows such ancient magic.

do you know?

You can enter this special state to talk to me because even though Riddle killed you, he also kept your soul.

Otherwise, your body cannot be perfectly preserved in the ice coffin. "

"Tell me, if there is nothing, you will not come to me.

I wonder what it will cost me to be resurrected. "

Li Lei suddenly looked at the system with great happiness, and then said lightly, "But let me explain in advance, I don't want to do too complicated things.

In the worst case, I will keep this state, anyway, you still want to talk to me when you are bored. "

"Sure enough, you are indeed my chosen one."

The grandfather of the system laughed, "Actually, resurrecting you is the right thing to do, after all, you have received the ultimate mission.

No one can kill you as long as the jewel box is in your hand.

It's just that you've made the simplest mistake of not wanting to go back into your body.

You just get close to your body and you can get back into your body.

As a result, you are different from other dead people, whose souls must go back no matter what.

You are fine, as if you are eager to leave your body.

Others want to go back but can't, you could go back but don't even try. "

"Well, I admit that I was negligent."

Li Lei did find that he had never tried to return to his body after his soul left his body.

"You can tell me your mission, I plan to go back later, if you don't say it, it will be regarded as you giving up."

"Actually, it's not a task, but a request from me.

When you complete the ultimate mission, you have a chance. "

The system suddenly remembered something, and he suddenly changed his words, "At that time, I hope you will make a choice according to your heart.

It should be said that I believe in you and believe that your choice is right.

Well, it's time for you to go back, or your friends will be worried. "

Li Lei nodded. Although he didn't know what the system's specific request was, as long as it wasn't a mandatory task, then Li Lei had nothing to worry about.

Li Lei slowly floated towards himself in the ice coffin. As the system said, when he approached this body, a strong suction sucked him in.

Immediately, Li Lei felt as if he was enclosed in a huge block of ice.

Li Lei immediately switched himself to the state of a fire mage, and as soon as this state touched the ice, the spell would start automatically.

Li Lei's body began to become hot, and then he saw his body slowly detached from the ice.

At this time, Li Lei concentrated the fire magic on his right index finger, and then slowly opened a hole.

Immediately afterwards, the Wannian ice coffin slowly cracked along the hole.

Since Li Lei still had wounds on his body, he didn't want to fight head-on with Riddle, so he switched to an invisible state and quietly came to the teleportation array that entered the castle, and then activated the teleportation array to leave the castle according to the method last told by the system.
