Bane's Shock (Seeking Collection! Seeking Follow-up Reads!)

Bai Lang called Director Gordon to inform him that the culprit behind the police station bombing was at this abandoned factory.

[Stats +3]

Without the slightest hesitation, he used the three stat points he gained to enhance his Current Propulsion ability.

[Current Propulsion 55,000 Volts] → [Current Propulsion 61,000 Volts]

The power within his body surged once more, increasing his strength by at least the equivalent of three regular combat armors worn by Batman.

Bai Lang walked out of the room and slowly headed towards the warehouse.

Within his body, a powerful will caused his cells to generate intense friction.

Tiny amounts of bioelectricity were generated by the friction, boosting his limited current.

The tingling sensation caused him to become somewhat immersed.

The current within his body gradually rose from sixty-one thousand volts, inching towards five hundred thousand volts.

He roughly estimated that after this enhancement, his strength had increased by 40%, a truly terrifying number.

It was as if his previous ten-ton strength had increased by four tons.

This was the result of his body's durability becoming stronger and his Current Propulsion becoming more potent.

Besides his muscles becoming more toned, a thick layer of keratin began to form on his skin.

Bai Lang pinched it and found that the keratin was adhered to his skin and significantly dulled the sensation of pain.

"The current continuously stimulates my muscles and cells. My physical condition is now at least thirty times that of an ordinary person!"

"But the most terrifying thing isn't my physical condition, it's my abilities."

The current within his body raged. With just a thought from Bai Lang, he could unleash the same terrifying electrical shock from any part of his body as before.

Currently, the current within him could support him in unleashing that kind of lightning attack at most twice.

"I still need to get stronger..." Bai Lang couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Along the way, he encountered several gangsters armed with guns, but he eliminated them all.

However, Bai Lang was unaware that this area had been fitted with surveillance cameras by Bane's subordinates, so every move he made was being watched by Bane.

Fortunately, Bai Lang was wearing a suit identical to Batman's, so Bane genuinely believed Batman had found him.

A sinister grin spread across his face: "Batman, you've come at the right time. This will be your burial ground!"

Gotham's nemesis, the Dark Knight, Batman.

He wondered what expression everyone in Gotham would have when they learned their savior had died at his hands.

This would be Bane's first step in conquering Gotham!

As he thought about it, Bane's smile grew wider.

He was located in the warehouse of this abandoned factory.

The warehouse contained some discarded goods, which they had used to build a trench, and a wrecked car was parked next to the entrance.

Behind him stood a dozen subordinates armed with rifles, while Splinter operated a machine gun, aiming it towards the warehouse entrance.

As soon as Batman entered, his heavy weapon would give him a warm welcome.

Splinter wore a cruel smile. He had never seen Batman withstand a heavy machine gun before.

The man was surely going to die!

However, before Bane could finish contemplating what he would do after conquering Gotham, the warehouse doors were struck with a thunderous roar.

Someone was ramming the doors.

BOOM!!

The doors were kicked open instantly, and a black figure appeared before them.

At the same time, the machine gun in Splinter's hands began spitting fire with a chatter chatter chatter, and the rifle-wielding subordinates beside him also opened fire.

Countless bullets were unleashed, a torrent of firepower sufficient to hunt any large animal in the world.

Even the concrete by the door was shot through, kicking up dust and smoke that obscured the entrance.

"Hahahaha!! Batman! That's the spirit! This is my gift to you, Splinter!" Splinter controlled the heavy machine gun, his expression manic and ferocious.

"Ha! To be able to gun down Gotham's Dark Knight is more exhilarating than playing with women!!"

A fierce wind raged, and smoke billowed.

The sound of the machine gun echoed throughout the vast warehouse, creating reverberations.

The entire doorway vibrated, and the green-painted iron doors were reduced to fragments by the powerful bullets, falling to the ground.

Everyone inside the warehouse could no longer see what was happening at the entrance. The rifle ammunition had been expended.

But Splinter continued firing. He was thoroughly enjoying this moment, the moment he killed Gotham's justice-serving Dark Knight.

After an unknown amount of time, Bane raised his hand, signaling Splinter to cease his ferocious barrage.

Three to four seconds later, the smoke slowly dissipated, spreading out in wisps and tendrils in all directions.

gradually fading until finally disappearing.

From within the smoke, a black figure slowly emerged.

Seeing the figure and the clothing it wore, everyone present felt their pupils contract sharply.

Some couldn't help but shout, "Jack!"

"H-How... how is this possible?"

"B-Batman isn't dead?!"

This was one of the gangsters Bai Lang had knocked out earlier.

Jack's body had been riddled with bullets, turning it into a bloody mess.

Behind him, two more bodies slowly fell.

Finally, a powerfully built figure in black half-crouched – it was Bai Lang, wearing the Batman suit!

Muscles as solid as granite were embedded on his body, and his sharp, eagle-like gaze sent a tremor through everyone's hearts.

An invisible, ferocious aura, like a scent, gradually spread through the smoke and wind.

BANG!

Under the dim yellow light, the warehouse's iron door collapsed with a roar, falling heavily to the ground.

The sound of flapping wings echoed as black bats flew out from outside the door, a countless number of them.

The black figure slowly stood up, revealing the bat symbol on his chest.

The bat symbol, yellow with black, was like an angel of death.

Bats, like ill omens, swirled around the black figure, flying wildly.

"Bane..." a deep voice came from the black figure.

Bane's face tightened, his eyes fixed on Batman before him, a bead of cold sweat trickling down his forehead.

Damn it, this Batman, why is the pressure so intense?

"Die! Batman!" Splinter roared, controlling the machine gun and opening fire on the nightmarish black figure.

"Die die die die die die!!!" Splinter continuously strafed with the machine gun, the flashes of bullets illuminating his ferocious and terrifying face.

Countless bullets shot out with great force.

Bane's face was grim, his gaze locked onto Bai Lang's figure.

The firepower of this machine gun was incredibly fierce; even he, Bane, could only flee in disarray under its barrage.

Damn Batman, using their gangster brothers to block bullets!

Now that there's no cover, this damned thing should finally be riddled with holes under this intense hail of bullets!

He didn't believe Batman could withstand the machine gun's spray. The intel showed his physical abilities were only at the human limit; even with body armor, he couldn't withstand such fierce firepower!

When that happens, he'd have his subordinates rape Batman, making sure the other party truly understood what humiliation was!

Thinking this, Bane couldn't help but show a sinister smile on his face.

However, the scene that unfolded next made him feel like all his previous investigations were bullshit.

Under the fierce machine gun fire, Bai Lang raised his hand and, with a roar, lifted a wrecked car beside him, using it as a shield.

Bullets poured out, striking the wrecked car fiercely, punching hole after hole.

Steel was pierced, and bullets wreaked havoc.

Bai Lang then used the corpses on the ground, already reduced to bloody messes by the bullets, as shields, remaining unharmed.

Could a wrecked car and a few mangled corpses really block a machine gun's barrage?

Absolutely! Easily!

Within a few minutes, the machine gun fire stopped.

The machine gun Bane and his men had acquired was an old model, with limited ammunition.

They had fired for nearly six minutes at Jack, and then for several minutes at the wrecked car; all the bullets were now spent.

Hearing the silence, Bai Lang lifted the car with one hand and hurled it fiercely towards Bane and the others!

Bane stood frozen, watching the scene, completely stunned.
