Chapter 3214: The Shadow of Faraines (XI)
The Pale Knight climbed over the courtyard wall, climbed in through the glass that was smashed by Bruce, and directly picked up the desk lamp and hit the dying Deep Diver with it.
The woman who was lying by the fireplace and not yet dead let out a scream. The Pale Knight gestured to her to keep quiet and picked up the blood-stained gun on the ground. When he picked it up, he found that it was actually a Springfield rifle.
This looks like something discarded during the war and has some defects in maintenance, but it is much more powerful than the old hunting rifles commonly seen in the village. The most important thing is that the scope is intact, which is very rare.
Most of the hunting rifles in the village are old guns left over from the previous generation. The models sold in the stores are also relatively old, and the key is that they do not have sniper scopes, which seriously limits the accuracy of shooting.
Although Springfield is also a firearm from the World War II era, this complete sight allows its effective and accurate shooting distance to reach 700 to 800 meters, which is more than enough for a small village like this.
"Save me, save me!" the woman wailed. Her calf was hit by the trident and her leg bone was completely shattered. Now she couldn't move at all.
The Pale Knight sighed and first looked at the male corpse on her left. The trident pierced through his chest, so there was no way he could be saved. The one next to him was still breathing, but there was a long cut on his stomach and his intestines were leaking out. Under the current conditions, there was no condition for rescue and he was doomed to die.
The only person who seemed to be able to be saved at the moment was the woman next to the fireplace. The Pale Knight held the gun in one hand and lifted the woman's waist with the other, and moved her to the second floor with some difficulty.
"Do you have anyone else? If so, maybe I can..."
As soon as he said this, he heard a shrill whistle coming from the street, coming from far away and getting closer at a very fast speed.
He rushed to the window with a gun in hand and saw at a glance a black sedan that rushed into the street at a very fast speed, made a drifting turn, and suddenly stopped in front of the door with an emergency brake.
Through the windshield, the Pale Knight saw Bruce's smiling face.
He looked back at the woman and knew that now was not the time to hesitate, so he jumped directly from the second floor with the gun in hand. After rolling over, he rushed out the door, opened the passenger door and got in.
There were roars and screams behind me.
The Pale Knight glanced at the rearview mirror, where the eyes of monsters were reflected densely. Some of the huge monsters exuded astonishing malice in their eyes.
He was about to ask when Bruce stepped on the accelerator and the Pale Knight was slammed against the backrest with a cry of pain.
"Uh!"
In a trance, he felt something being thrown at him. He looked down and saw a pack of cigarettes stained with blood.
"Want one?" Bruce asked in a relaxed tone.
The Pale Knight stared at him.
"Relax, man." Bruce held a cigarette in one hand, turned the steering wheel with the base of his wrist, glanced at the rearview mirror and said, "Learn to enjoy the convenience brought by the Industrial Revolution. Two legs can't catch up with four wheels."
"you……"
"Do you think I can't outrun them?" Bruce snorted contemptuously and said, "When I was running the Gotham Loop with the four kings under James, they were still in their mother's womb."
As the Pale Knight opened his mouth, there was a flash in the rearview mirror and Bruce swung the steering wheel sharply to the left.
Sizzle——!!
The harsh sound of tires rubbing against the ground was accompanied by an unpleasant burning smell, and a trident pierced their original route. Bruce made a beautiful drift, turned into the alley, turned right again, and drove onto another road.
The smaller deep divers could come through the alleys, but the larger ones couldn't get through at all. But they were also very smart and rushed directly in the direction Bruce was going, trying to block him in front.
Seeing a big guy blocking the way, the Pale Knight wanted to say something nervously, but Bruce snorted again.
He first stepped on the accelerator and accelerated forward. When he was about to hit the car, he swerved the steering wheel to the side. The car went out of control, the front wheel lifted up, and the right wheel stepped on the wall of the store next to it. The car tilted 45 degrees and went through the tiny gap with sparks and lightning.
Then he hit it hard again, turned around on the spot, used friction to slow down the speed of the car, adjusted the direction, and then rushed out again like an arrow.
The Pale Knight had been shaken unconscious.
Driving onto the flat road again, the Pale Knight finally saw the scene ahead clearly. They were driving in the opposite direction of the lighthouse and seemed to be moving away from the village.
The Pale Knight turned his head sharply to look at Bruce and asked, "What do you think of your racing style..."
"What are you looking at?"
The Pale Knight hesitated for a moment but still didn't speak. After all, he was sitting in the car now.
What he actually meant was that Bruce's racing style didn't seem like that of a good guy.
The universe where the Pale Knight lives also has Batman. His strength cannot be said to be very high, but it is acceptable. So he has also seen Batman racing and catching criminals in Gotham City.
But the problem is, when the police catch criminals, they don't really chase them by car. Instead, they have to cooperate with helicopters. The same is true for Batman. When he and the Gotham Police Department catch criminals, they mostly use air-ground cooperation and multi-directional encirclement and suppression. As long as there are enough police cars, they can always block the enemy.
But Bruce's racing style doesn't look like the one being caught, but the one being run.
Basically, only criminals who want to escape the police by racing against them will have such tricky escape driving skills, such as flexible drifting, sharp turns on small roads, U-turns on flower beds, breaking cars in three seconds, and hiding from helicopters...
In order to avoid the police cars coming from all directions, the good citizens of Gotham have mastered these skills to perfection, and they always cause great trouble to Batman and the Gotham Police Department.
Some people may say that cars will always run out of gas and people will always need to stop to refuel, and they will be caught sooner or later, so why bother?
This has to be said of the United States' own national conditions. The judicial system in each state is relatively independent, and the police system is also independent. It is good enough if they do not cause trouble for each other. It is difficult to expect them to cooperate with each other.
So some criminals who have not committed serious crimes but do not want to go to jail choose to race with the police. As long as they can successfully drive into another state, it will be difficult for the police to catch them.
Gotham is not a very large city, so it is easy to drive out of the city. New Jersey is not particularly far from Canada. As long as you go north and cross the border, Batman will not be able to catch up with you, so you don't have to go to jail.
Even if he can't go to Canada, the chances of escaping capture by fleeing to a few nearby states are very high. Gotham's police force is already insufficient, and Batman is even more overwhelmed. Basically, unless it is a very brutal case, they will not pursue him.
As soon as the Pale Knight heard the sound of a helicopter's propeller, he knew that another speedster was on the road.
The Pale Knight's plan to save Gotham is not simply to use severe punishments in times of chaos. He is actually lenient with low-level criminals, which means that he lowers the sentences for crimes that are not too serious and do not hurt people. This can reduce the probability of them resorting to desperate measures.
The people of Gotham are also quite considerate, so in the later period of the White Knight's governance, good citizens rarely raced. After all, petty thefts would only be punished with community service, and if the stolen goods could be returned, they would be released after a few words of education. There was no need to play with one's own life.
However, there are still some die-hards who do not resport because they have committed a crime, but they commit crimes because they want to resport, and they are pursuing a thrill.
Pale Knight thinks Bruce is that kind of person.
"Do you know that you are as high as if you were on drugs?" The Pale Knight turned to Bruce and asked.
"You should also be careful." Bruce glanced at the gun he was holding and said, "This car's performance is not good. It's better to change to a bigger car. I have a good target. You kill the two who are chasing the most, and we will go to change cars."
The Pale Knight also glanced at the rearview mirror. This time, a new group of deep divers were chasing behind him. The previous group had obviously been blown up and went back to the bottom of the sea to breathe.
What Bruce said actually makes a lot of sense. Two legs can't outrun four wheels. Even if a monster like Godzilla comes into the city, as long as you drive fast enough, you will definitely be able to escape. Even in 2012, you can still race against the flood. Human beings' advantage in using tools is invincible.
Besides, this guy is so damn skilled.
The Pale Knight couldn't even imagine what he had done in Gotham. How many police cars and helicopters did he have to dodge to be so capable?
Which Batman can have such good driving skills? !
The Pale Knight asked the Beyonder in his mind, "Doesn't he need to pass a test to race? Are you just letting him do what he wants?"
"He selected the skill." The Transcendent said helplessly, "Theoretically, the first-level driving mastery can't produce such an effect, but he already knows how to do it, so there's nothing I can do."
“Isn’t this beyond acting?”
"His intelligence is only 5, just let him go."
The Pale Knight was observing the situation behind him and thinking, what did Bruce just say?
The four kings under James are fighting back and forth with him? Then we have to look for them carefully when we go back. Such talents cannot be wasted.
Realizing that the time was almost right, the Pale Knight directly pointed the muzzle of his gun out of the car window.
boom!
The leading deep diver was killed with one shot. Because it happened so suddenly, after the body fell, the ones chasing behind had no time to dodge and were tripped. Five or six of them fell in a row, and even the big guy at the back was tripped.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Bruce made another smooth turn and slotted into the parking space perfectly. The two men jumped out of the car from both sides, and Bruce opened the door of the car next to him in no time.
The Pale Knight got into the car only to find out that it was a fucking ambulance!
"Go to the back and see if there is any spare oil, and then check if there is any first aid equipment. Remember to hold on firmly."
Only when the Pale Knight arrived at the rear did he understand Bruce's intention. Special vehicles such as ambulances must have gasoline in the car. Otherwise, if they run out of gas halfway, wouldn't people die?
Moreover, the fuel tank of this type of car is particularly large, so a refuel can last for a long time. The Pale Knight calculated that it would not be a problem to drive around Gotham three times, and he might not run out of gas even if he drove around in this small village until the end of time.
More importantly, there are first aid equipment in the back of the ambulance. Some fixed items cannot be taken away, but the most common bandages, safety ropes, scalpels, and even defibrillators can be taken away, and there are also many analgesics.
The rule of the game is that if you have key props, you don't need skills and tests. The existence of these first aid supplies may save you key first aid skills and avoid being stuck in a dilemma like last time.
So the Pale Knight began to plunder without saying a word.
