I Create the League of Heroes in Gotham

With a crisp crack! Even an old melon farmer would have praised it as a good shot!

The outpost guard's head exploded like a ripe watermelon!

Then, in a mist of blood, it transformed into a vibrant Flesh Lotus!

With this crucial firing position eliminated, the dense web of firepower coming from the abandoned factory immediately developed a gap.

That wasn't all!

When the gangsters inside the factory instinctively turned their heads towards where the previous gang member was, the entire abandoned factory fell into an eerie silence.

A brilliant Flesh Lotus bloomed beside the machine gun, a symbol of violence and war. The scene was filled with a unique, alternative aesthetic.

But seeing such a beautiful sight, the gangsters felt as if they were witnessing the end of the world, filling them with despair!

It was Khada Jhin!

This ability to turn corpses into a Flesh Lotus after killing was unique to Khada Jhin!

The gangsters present didn't understand what unforgivable sin they had committed. Not only had the Lethal Beast arrived, but The Caster, Khada Jhin, who had disappeared after their last crime, had also shown up!

But they all knew one thing: they were doomed!

If the Lethal Beast had been their only enemy, they might have still had the will to resist or fight to the death. But now, with Khada Jhin and this Lethal Beast, they had completely lost the will to resist.

I'm tired, let's just destroy everything and wait for death!

The gangsters fell into a stupor, but Stan didn't!

Seeing the dense firepower halt, Stan took a deep breath of the blood-soaked air, his eyes flashing with a bloodthirsty red light. He shot into the abandoned factory like an arrow.

The outcome of being cornered by a ferocious Werewolf was predictable.

What followed for these despairing gangsters was an even more desperate slaughter.

Screams of agony mingled with the sound of flesh being torn apart.

Even a small portion of the gangsters who reacted and desperately picked up their weapons again in despair were of no use.

Sporadic resistance couldn't stop Stan's killing spree. The blood and pain only awakened his stronger hunting instincts!

"Peo~ple~ to be slaughtered~ all are~ people to be slaughtered." Stan's voice gradually became indistinct, and the line between human and beast blurred further.

Stan's killing efficiency increased!

In this more lethal hunt, the damage inflicted by the gangsters' scattered attacks healed in less than the time it took to draw a breath!

As for attacking Li Wei?

He had only fired one shot from the beginning. These gangsters had no idea of his direction or location, let alone the possibility of attacking him!

Watching the slaughter on the overgrown field outside the factory, Fish, inside the factory, maintained a calm exterior, but her heart was in a panic.

When she had planned to drag Khada Jhin, or rather Li Wei, into her schemes, she had considered such consequences.

But what she hadn't expected was for them to come looking for her so soon!

Although Khada Jhin had only fired one shot, that single shot was enough to prove everything.

Besides Khada Jhin, no one could turn a corpse into a flower!

And recently, the Lethal Beast that terrified everyone in the underworld had also arrived!

Coincidence?

Don't be ridiculous. Even the dumbest person now could guess that the Lethal Beast and Khada Jhin were working together!

Li Wei is Khada Jhin!

This discovery was enough to shake Gotham's underworld once again.

But Fish didn't have the luxury of revealing this to others right now. She had to figure out what to do!

The enemy had come aggressively, clearly with no intention of leaving her alive.

The Maroni Family and the Falcone Family had already officially declared war, and that old Falcone had fallen for her honey trap.

She felt that she was not far from becoming the true king of Gotham's underworld!

She didn't want to die yet!

As Fish pondered, her gaze gradually shifted to Ian, who was making a bomb, and the pile of completed explosives behind him...

Chapter Forty-Six: Do I Look Like a Farmer?

When the overgrown field outside the abandoned factory fell silent once more.

Only Stan remained standing in the entire overgrown field. All the other gangsters had been reduced to scattered limbs and broken bodies.

Stan's expression was one of intoxication as he took a deep breath of the thick, bloody aroma in the air.

This feeling was amazing!

The blood, full of sin, allowed him to constantly recall the criminals wreaking havoc deep within the city.

After this hunt, his craving for blood was satisfied, and his reason returned.

"Well, that was truly an ugly and brutal slaughter..." Li Wei muttered as he walked over from a distance with Dr. Hugo, commenting on the scattered remains.

Stan didn't mind Li Wei's words; in fact, he felt somewhat honored.

Yes, honored.

He felt incredibly honored to be compared to his idol.

He had always been a huge fan of Khada Jhin.

Compared to Khada Jhin's elegant performances, the scattered limbs and dismembered bodies left behind after his hunts were indeed very bloody and lacked elegance.

"Warden..." Stan started to say with a goofy grin, but Li Wei interrupted him.

"Warwick, call me Khada Jhin now."

Stan was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized this was what the Warden meant by having a different persona...

"Alright, Mr. Khada Jhin."

Li Wei nodded with satisfaction and turned his gaze towards the abandoned factory. "Okay, we can talk more later. I think we need to see Miss Fish now."

Stan also nodded. He could sense two more heartbeats inside the abandoned factory.

"Miss Fish, come out," Li Wei called out loudly. "Didn't you want me to show up? I'm here now!"

As Li Wei's words fell, the factory door was opened from the inside.

Fish appeared at the factory entrance, pushing a handcart. Ian was tied to it, his expression one of sheer terror. Besides him, an entire cartload of explosives was piled beneath him!

Li Wei's gaze swept over Ian, who was writhing on the pile of explosives, and then turned to Fish, his expression unchanged.

"Miss Fish, what is the meaning of this? You don't actually think you can threaten me with someone I don't even know, do you?"

"Of course not." Fish spread her hands helplessly. "Director Li Wei, I didn't expect you to arrive so quickly. This guy is the only bargaining chip I have left. I hope you can give me a chance to speak."

"Oh? Then by all means, tell me."

Li Wei didn't deny Fish's address for him.

Just as Fish didn't continue to hide in the factory, denying her identity would have been meaningless.

Fish's almost supernatural telepathy rendered any disguised identity useless in front of her.

Besides, she was already on his kill list. What did it matter if he knew her true identity?

The mouths of the dead were best suited for keeping secrets.

"Director Li Wei, I didn't expect the Lethal Beast to be one of your people. I admit defeat this time." Fish glanced at Stan, who was beside Li Wei and looked exactly like a werewolf. "I just hope you can let me go."

"If you let me leave alive, I swear I will follow your lead from now on. I will be your most loyal subordinate, and no one will ever know the secret of your identity. If you wish, I can also be your woman..."

To be fair, Fish was very sincere in her plea to stay alive.

So sincere that Li Wei almost believed her.

But alas, it was still not enough.

Loyalty in Gotham?

Perhaps only a select few deserved such a word, like the butler Alfred, or Harvey and Gordon...

But Fish was definitely not among them!

If she could betray Falcone, she could betray him too.

As for becoming his woman?

Though Li Wei was still single, he wasn't at a point where he'd find that appealing.

Besides, Fish had to die.

"Fish," Li Wei waved his hand, interrupting her. "Let me ask you a question, do I look like a farmer?"

Fish looked somewhat bewildered, not understanding why Li Wei's topic had shifted so drastically. However, circumstances were against her, so she honestly shook her head.

"Of course not."

"Exactly! Do I have a cotton field that needs you to pick from? Why would I let you go?"

Fish: ...

Beside him, Stan looked at Li Wei with admiration. He truly was the man who could tell Wayne family's dark jokes. What kind of logic was this!

Fish's expression faltered, and then she realized what Li Wei meant.

She had never imagined that racial discrimination could be used in this way!

Fish had already gone against her nature by lowering herself. Now, after hearing Li Wei's words, a surge of anger rushed straight to her head!

Fish pulled a kerosene lighter from her pocket and held it in the air above the barrels of explosives, her voice sinister and full of threat.

"Director Li Wei, it seems you have no intention of letting me live?"

Li Wei glanced indifferently at the lighter in Fish's hand and spread his hands. "Yeah, what are you going to do about it?"

"Then let's die together!"

A look of madness appeared in Fish's eyes as she prepared to throw the lighter towards the fuse!

Although she wanted to live, she had been prepared for a mutual destruction from the very beginning.

The reason for choosing a kerosene lighter was also to prevent Khada Jhin's divine marksmanship. Even if Li Wei managed to kill him with a shot, the kerosene lighter wouldn't be extinguished by his death!

These explosives, manufactured by Ian, would trigger a chain reaction that was enough to blow up the entire abandoned factory area and its surroundings!

In Gotham, madness is the essence!

It's just a shame that plans don't always go as expected.

No matter how perfect Fish's plan was, she never anticipated Stan's arrival.

"Awoooo..."

A werewolf howl echoed, and Fish felt an overwhelming fear surge within her.

Her body lost control under this terror.

Her hands, which were about to loosen their grip, clenched even tighter. At the same time, her feet began to move uncontrollably in place.

This scene filled Fish's eyes with terror and despair.

She knew she was finished, without even the qualification to take them all down with her.

Li Wei nudged Stan beside him. "Go on, take care of her. Just make sure to leave a complete corpse, the rest is up to you."

With a bloodthirsty glint in his eyes, Stan charged forward.

Accompanied by the sound of a throat being torn apart, Fish's life finally came to an end in fear.

Li Wei then walked with Dr. Hugo to the small cart.

Just as Ian, believing he was finally saved, showed an excited expression, Li Wei spoke to Dr. Hugo.

"Finish him off. Just make sure he doesn't die, and then we'll head back."
