Chapter 49 Sky Train
Alfred howled like crazy and rushed to Bruce. As he ran, he took out a pistol from his coat pocket. He shouted crazily: "Dante, I really should keep an eye on you, you are the real one." "Evil"
Damn it, just nine hours without seeing Bruce, how did this kid become like this?
However, when he was about to touch Bruce, Bruce quickly raised his hand to stop him.
"Afu" Bruce grinned with difficulty. He looked like he wanted to laugh, but his smile was ugly. He said: "I'm fine. My injury is recovering. The teacher made me experience real combat. I feel it. It turns out that as long as we are brave enough, humans can achieve extraordinary things.”
Bruce sounded a little excited.
"Look, all my fingers were cut off in the exercise just now. Then I realized that with only two pairs of palms, I can also clamp the sword in my hand, and then defend and counterattack. When the soles of my feet were cut off After that, I realized that I could stand very steadily with just my ankles.”
"Shit, where's your teacher? Where's Dante? I'm going to kill him, son of a bitch."
Alfred didn't hear Bruce's words at all. He only felt that the child was completely deceived by Dante. However, when he tried to bring Bruce back to the ground to cultivate, Bruce grabbed his wrist. God, Alfred was still This was the first time his wrist was held with such force, and Bruce’s hand only had two fingers.
"Quiet, Ah Fu, I'm fine, or in other words, I'm extremely fine."
Bruce spoke word by word, and Ah Fu finally calmed down. He stood next to Bruce, watching Bruce recover little by little. His palms and soles gradually recovered completely, and the stab wounds on his body and face slowly closed up.
It wasn't until Dante appeared from a distance that Bruce finally recovered.
"Okay, Bruce, come over when you recover, I have some new discoveries in this direction" Dante shouted to Bruce from a distance.
"Hey" Bruce replied: "Teacher, come over and have something to eat first. Afu brought the best steak."
"immediately"
Dante heard the delicious food and ran over quickly. The next moment, Afu saw a shirtless Dante. Unlike Bruce, there was no blood on Dante's body.
"Your educational methods are really bloody."
As soon as he saw Dante, Afu couldn't help but muttered something, and Dante spread his hands noncommittally.
"Bruce is more perseverant than I thought, and his fighting talent is also far beyond my imagination. Maybe I will really have a qualified apprentice in the future."
Dante said as he sat down at the table and ate the steak with Bruce, Dante muttered as they ate.
"I just discovered a small passage in the southwest. When I went over, I saw an even bigger cave and a small waterfall. It's so beautiful. I'll take you to see it later."
"Um"
Bruce replied simply. At this moment, he had a much stronger sense of control over his body. With every mouthful of food he swallowed, Bruce could feel the food being decomposed under the peristalsis of his stomach.
Moreover, a force called blood kept flowing in Bruce's veins, and Bruce felt the trajectory of their movements all the time, which made Bruce not in the mood to speak.
Dante finished the steak and drank a glass of wine. Then, he looked at Alfred.
"Mr. Alfred, have you set up the detector I gave you?" Dante asked Afu, who nodded.
"Everything has been arranged. I guarantee that every corner of Gotham is within your detection range."
Hearing this, Dante stretched out his right hand and lightly drew a rune on the table. The basis of this rune was a six-pointed star, and at the same time there were some complicated patterns on the six corners of the hexagonal star.
As the runes were carved, Dante's eyes quickly glowed with silver. He was patrolling the entire Gotham. He couldn't see anyone because this detection was only effective for demons, but he didn't see anything.
Not to mention Ah Fu's slightly surprised look, Dante was far more surprised than Ah Fu at the moment. In such a huge Gotham, there wasn't even a lurking demon. Damn it, this game of chess is probably getting bigger and bigger.
"No." Dante reached out and knocked on the table: "There is not even a little devil in Gotham City. Is Gotham the most peaceful city in the United States?"
"How is that possible?" Ah Fu explained with a wry smile: "Some time ago, Detective Gordon of the Gotham Police Department did arrest many criminals in prison. However, even so, the criminal activities in Gotham have not decreased at all. "
“That’s why it’s unreasonable”
Dante knocked on the table depressedly. There was no demon. There was no demon here. Could he just wait for Lei Xiaogu to come over?
can not be like this
Dante stood up and looked at Bruce.
"Now that you're done eating, come with me. The waterfall in the distance should be an exit. I'm going to take you for a walk tonight. I've never seen the city of Gotham with my own eyes. I want to see what kind of city can do that. Not even a single devil.”
After Dante finished speaking, he walked toward the distance. The tattoo of the big sword on his back became particularly obvious in the dim light.
Bruce shrugged at Alfred: "He's always like this, he likes to do things first and talk later. I'm going over, do you want to come with me?"
"Of course" Alfred replied while keeping up with Bruce. This is the underground of the Wayne family's old house. This is the property of the Wayne family. As a housekeeper, he must understand every inch of this place.
Bruce followed Dante and planned to pass through the low cave in front of him, but the moment Bruce took a step forward, there were countless noisy, harsh and dizzying sounds.

The sound started
"Damn"
Bruce cursed fiercely. There were actually countless bats in this cave. This place should be connected to a well. Twenty-one years ago, Bruce fell into this well and broke his leg.
Countless bats flew out of the cave, and they kept flying past Bruce's body. Bruce was frightened for a moment, and then he quickly returned to normal, holding on to these bats, and walked into the cave with a low body.
Halfway through, Bruce saw the upward passage, which was the well. The wellhead seemed to be sealed, but Bruce's deepest memories still stayed here.
Bruce dispelled the confusion in his heart and continued to follow Dante's pace. When he walked about seventy meters, he finally saw a new space.
It was a huge cave. Because they didn't bring a light source, they couldn't see clearly what was on the top of the cave. However, even without looking at Bruce, they knew that there should be bats on it, because he was familiar with such small things. Animals are extremely sensitive.
"Look there"
Dante pointed to the distance, where there was a waterfall. Since it was night, there was no light coming from outside the waterfall.
Dante walked to the front of the waterfall and walked gently into the waterfall. He walked out of the waterfall with a not particularly strong impact, and immediately saw a sea in front of him.
Dante stood there comfortably, looking at the water in the distance, looking at the moon on the water that was exactly the same as the moon in the sky. This scenery was really beautiful, and Dante suddenly felt relaxed and happy.
Bruce followed Dante through the waterfall, and the running water washed away the blood stains on his body. When he stood next to Dante, he admired the scenery just like Dante.
However, unlike Dante's simple appreciation, Bruce thought of something more and murmured.
"Such a beautiful city, I must protect it"
"you can"
Dante answered, and then he walked back to the cave behind the waterfall and came to Alfred.
"Why, why don't you go and see the scenery outside the waterfall?" Dante asked with a smile.
Alfred shook his head slightly and said: "When I was your age, I also liked to play in the water, so now I have frozen shoulder and various arthritis."
"Haha" Dante laughed immediately: "Child, before the earth appeared, I was already struggling in purgatory."
After Dante finished speaking, he hugged Alfred gently. Alfred awkwardly felt the water stains on his skin through his clothes, and he heard Dante say.
"Can you help Bruce and I find two sets of less conspicuous clothes? I plan to go out with him. The clothes you brought last night were too expensive and conspicuous."
Alfred nodded.
"It's hard to find cheap stuff at Wayne's, but I can do it, just give me a few minutes."
After Alfred finished speaking, he quickly turned around and left. Dante walked back through the cave and returned to the ground. He picked up two magic guns from the table. These guns might be used soon.
Bruce is also back, and he looks a little excited.
"It's been a long time since I walked the streets of Gotham," Bruce said softly, reaching for the long knife handed over by Dante, taking off the blood-stained bandage on the handle, and wrapping it again with a brand new bandage.
Dante wiped the pistol clean and tied a bandage around his waist. By this time, Alfred had already come down.
"This is the sportswear I prepared myself. Elderly people also exercise occasionally. I hope you won't find it objectionable."
Alfred brought down two sets of black sportswear and prepared a hat for Dante. After all, Dante's silver hair was too conspicuous.
Dante and Bruce quickly changed their clothes, and then they left the underground and the Wayne family manor.
Gotham looked extremely quiet at night. There were almost no pedestrians on the road, but there were quite a few vehicles. The passing car lights made Dante feel warm. The light was the same as what Dante saw before climbing out of Purgatory.
At this moment, Dante suddenly saw a group of light sources that was much larger than before. He raised his head along the light source in confusion. Dante actually saw a long train approaching in the sky.
"What is that? I mean, I have never seen a train running in the sky on the computer."
Dante watched curiously as the train passed over his head. It was moving very fast, roaring away into the distance in the blink of an eye.
When Bruce heard Dante's question, a nostalgic smile appeared on his face, and he explained to Dante with pride.
"This is Gotham's sky train. It was built by my father twenty years ago at a huge cost and advanced technology. It is a new public transportation system that links the entire Gotham. People can travel at a low cost. Money enjoys the convenience brought by this kind of transportation”
Bruce looked at the departing train with nostalgia, pointed to a tall building in the distance, and continued.
"Its end and end point are the center of Gotham, which is the Wayne Group's building. He shortened the distance between the entire city and benefited countless Gotham citizens. This was the last thing my father did before his death and the greatest in his life. I’m proud of him for his achievements.”
Dante nodded.
"This is a great project. The Wayne Group is indeed the most powerful group in Gotham. However, what I am looking for with you is not the greatness of this city. What I am looking for is the dirtiest and most filthy place in the entire city. In ugly places, what I am looking for is the cruelty and reality that cannot be concealed.”
Dante pointed to the left, where the light was relatively dim.
"We are going to the narrow island"
