"Fioshka?!" Pamela was taken aback by her inexplicable obsession: "Are you crazy too?! It seems that the problem of Lazarus Pond is really not ordinary, and you still know who I am? ?!"

Fiona shook her head and nodded again, she answered the question inexplicably and seriously, and she was cute: "It's not crazy, it's fine, don't worry Pamela, I'm just thinking..."

She raised her head and looked at Pamela, saying every word with great solemnity: "If this blessing can't benefit more people, if I have to accept protection from you now, it can only Works on me alone."

"I think, when Themis seals up this blessing for future successors, she will never want to see this scene."

After the members of the Birds of Prey looked at each other in blank dismay, they finally found out where the most deadly point of conflict was:

Under the double protection of Themis' blessing and white witchcraft, if Fiona joins the battlefield and disputes rashly, there is a great risk that her opponent will break the protection of white witchcraft, because even Wonder Woman herself dare not Ensure that those who offend the gods can still live, especially the gods of Olympus are not merciful figures.Even Aphrodite, the god of beauty and love, executed those who disrespected her. Even Artemis personally killed the children of Queen Thebes who dared to disrespect her mother. Who can guarantee Whoever offended Themis could save his life?

Although right now, the old god has only a little bit of divine power and blood left in the world, but the gap between gods and humans is too wide and too deep. If you accidentally cross the boundary, the only consequence is death. In the most optimistic case , is nothing more than the difference between a broken body and a whole body.

But if Fiona is asked to go to the safe house to protect herself and come out after everything is settled, even Fiona herself cannot accept such an arrangement. A person who stays obediently in a safe place while protecting others.

This is also the only reason why the League of Assassins' capture and assassination of her can be achieved in one blow, because she - and even the heroes who are about to fight alongside her - are such selfless and heroic people.

Just when they were getting together and discussing Fiona's next whereabouts in a low voice, an instant video chat with Batman suddenly came from Diana's communicator, accompanied by an electronic mechanical sound of "Didi ", a fluorescent screen immediately appeared in front of Diana, and Batman also appeared on the screen:

"Call Wonder Woman, it looks like you got someone. Why haven't you sent her to the safe house yet?"

Diana shrugged, this gesture of helplessness was so good-looking, even with an inexplicable elegance: "Fioshka said she wanted to go to the Gotham battlefield to support, and we are convincing her. Yours There is a day when the plan fails, B, it’s rare.”

Fiona was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that the suggestion of "sending her to a safe place" was probably given by Batman.Eliminate all unstable variables at the first time, and directly apply protection regardless of his own wishes, which is indeed very similar to the usual style of this Justice League consultant.

After Batman saw Fiona, he didn't even question her because his plan was suddenly disrupted, but nodded to her calmly, and didn't even give her a "friendly look"——a well-known unknown person present The demigod said that if it wasn't for the lack of a record button on the communicator, she would have to record the scene just now and go back to enjoy the wonders with the colleagues of the Justice League-right to say hello:

"'Themis', you also know your current situation."

"What is your reason for not accepting the arrangement to go to the safe house? Give me a reasonable explanation."

Fiona just wanted to explain with words like "I can use this blessing reasonably to protect more people" or "I can't just watch you stand by while fighting against the Assassin League", but when she saw After seeing Batman's frown that seemed to be always tightly frowned, and his expression that seemed to have never calmed down, she forcibly swallowed all the words that had rushed to her throat.

She has so many abilities, but this one is definitely not included. After experiencing the weakening of various electronic devices, she can feel the mood and feelings of people thousands of miles away from just one image.People who have studied micro-expressions and psychology may be able to do this, but no matter what kind of micro-expressions and psychology masters, I am afraid that they will not be able to read "I disagree" and "Think twice before acting" on Batman's ten thousand years. " and other expressions on the face to extract more useful information.

But at this moment, Fiona felt the mood and feelings of this person through just one image like never before:

He was falling into some kind of self-blame that was so painful that he couldn't get rid of it.

Fiona's eyes widened in disbelief, and she looked up and down the image of Batman:

What did he have to blame himself for?

The Justice League has snooped ahead of the predicament of falling apart in advance, and has avoided it in advance; if it can repel the dying counterattack of the Assassin League, it will be fine; the Harley Quinn and the Joker have parted ways, which is not good for the Joker. A small blow, after all, even a lunatic can't accept that his girlfriend found a new love in seconds after breaking up or someone of the same sex. Therefore, Arkham, which has been making troubles, has not had any big news recently; when she was resurrected, she just happened to solve the Lazarus Pool of the Assassin League. Singing the Internationale on the spot to express his impassioned and courageous attitude——

Why is he still blaming himself?

Batman was still waiting for her answer, but the subtle, flashes of light came and went so quickly that Fiona only had time to catch the tail of something that had been vague in the cracks of her thoughts. , without having time to think about it, he blurted out:

"I don't—" I'm not afraid of death.

The last piece of the jigsaw puzzle was finally put together satisfactorily where it should be, and the last snowflake finally crushed the snow that stretched for thousands of miles.If Fiona could see her own spiritual world, then she would see that at this moment, above the raging, roaring avalanche, the clouds that had been hovering all this time finally dissipated, revealing the blue sky. The sky is as clear as a wash.

It is true that she is not afraid of death, but some people are afraid of her death.

The education of the League of Assassins has always been "snatch what you want by yourself", "we can do whatever it takes to clean the world", but it may be because of the lack of care since childhood, this distorted value came to Fiona After here, it becomes "I am not afraid of anything in order to realize my own value to the greatest extent".

When Fiona leaned out to block the bullet in the dungeon of the League of Assassins, she thought the same way, but the situation was so critical that she had no time to take care of the most important point, which was the bat. The hero's own feelings.

The Dark Knight of Gotham, the brains of the Justice League, and the ever-indispensable advisor, has never been one to accept sacrifices and help from others with peace of mind.It's not that other heroes can accept it, but he seems to be masturbating himself, wishing to put all the deaths and sacrifices on his own head, so he will fall into deeper pain and self-blame than ordinary people for this.

——He can't allow anyone to die for him, but he is ready to sacrifice himself at any time.

Therefore, when facing such a person, Fiona was unable to persuade him in the way of "I can do it" like before.She had to find another new argument and argument that would convince him without making him feel guilty.

Fiona was silent for too long, and Batman waited for her answer in silence. Finally, Fiona finally spoke and completed her unfinished words:

"I won't die."

When she said this, she was inexplicably serious and solemn. Although she was only in her early 16s, when she made the promise, she already had the demeanor of Wonder Woman faintly.That kind of soft yet serious tone used to quell countless disputes at the Justice League meeting, but now, under the watchful eyes of Wonder Woman, Fiona uses the same tone to say this from her mouth While speaking, there is a sense of beauty that is orderly reversed but echoed in pairs:

"I still have so much to do, I don't want to die, so I won't die."

This argument actually looks weak at first glance, and it is not enough to constitute a strong argument that can convince Batman.But Fiona knew that nothing could speak louder than what she had just said:

Before she was in the dungeon of the League of Assassins, in order to protect Batman, Fiona wanted to die, because the situation at that time was extremely dangerous, and she couldn't allow her to think too much about the option of exchanging lives for lives, but now no the same.

—for the moment she is bent on survival.

Batman nodded, took a deep look at her and then cut off the communication. This sudden hangup made Fiona look at Wonder Woman beside her in a daze. Apart from the couple combination with Harley, the only person present who has a close relationship with Batman, she doesn't want to risk being shown to ask the young couple:

"Diana, is this...?"

Diana lightly pressed her shoulders, as if some heavy burden had been entrusted to her, and the way she looked at her changed slightly, from the way she was looking at the younger generation who needed protection and was still growing The kindness and protection have become the current eyes with a little encouragement, pride and worry.Many years ago, when Hippolyta, Queen of the Amazons, looked at her daughter who was about to go to the human world for the first time, that was the look in her eyes:

"He's allowed you to go to Gotham."

——So in the end, this half of the Birds of Prey team was completely packed in the car by Diana and flew all the way from Manhattan to Gotham.Don't ask, just ask.

The speed of Wonder Woman really lived up to its reputation. When they arrived in Gotham, they happened to collide with the large army of the Assassins led by Thalia.Thalia, who is the leader, really deserves to be the best in the League of Assassins. With the outflanking of Batman Heroes in the back and the Birds of Prey in front, he didn't panic at all. Fiona, who was standing still, showed a sneer, and pointed two loaded guns at her forehead and chest:

"For the sake of our friendship over the years, 'Themis', I will leave you a whole body."
