Chapter 99 - Chapter 99 You won’t be happy for long!

After appearing to soothe the emotions of the Tiangong Society's brothers and sisters, Gwen first returned to Wayne Manor.

After all, she had been missing for several days, so she needed to return and report her safety.

For this young lady who had gone missing and played around for several days, Alfred, the kind old butler, offered the highest British respect.

"Oh, my dear young lady, if you didn't return, I reckon the Wayne Family would have to hold its second funeral of the year.

Perhaps you enjoy it, but I think we shouldn't invite the shareholders of Wayne Group to stroll through the cemetery every other day, don't you agree?"

After saying this long string of sarcastic remarks, Alfred looked up, intending to see if his young lady had realized the impropriety of her actions.

Then he saw his young lady's look of utter satisfaction after hearing his complaints.

"Thank you, Alfred! That's exactly the feeling I wanted!"

Alfred: ?

Did she enjoy being scolded???

"Miss Gwen, I understand; I will immediately book you an appointment with the best Doctor in Gotham Hospital."

Gwen: ?

She just thought she wouldn't be able to return, and was simply happy to see old friends again.

Of course, besides the 'Old London' specialty brought by Alfred, the old butler, Gwen also had to meet her 'convenient' younger sister.

Gwen was overjoyed to see little Brucey rush up to her and give her a big hug, rather than a Batman-like coldness.

She was so afraid that when she returned, her sister would already be standing on top of skyscrapers at night, shouting lines.

Rubbing the little girl's cheek in her arms, Gwen looked content.

At the Police station, Chief Luo Bu fell from power due to stealing a billion yuan and his involvement with the Tiangong Society.

The brave and fearless new Director of the Police Department, Harvey Bullock, and his partner, James Gordon, found half of the stolen money in his home.

But it must be said that Chief Luo Bu was truly a man.

In the interrogation room, even when he was beaten almost to death by the corrupt Police, Chief Luo Bu refused to reveal information about the remaining hundreds of millions and the Tiangong Society.

Gwen was very moved by this.

A salute to Mr. Rob, the legendary Plumbers who refused to reveal the whereabouts of his companions!

Although angry and pained by Chief Luo Bu's actions, and puzzled as to why his old superior had fallen so low, as one of the Police department's legendary heroes, Harvey Bullock, with the credit of recovering half of the stolen money and capturing Chief Luo Bu, still took the Director's position with a "grieved" heart.

Wuwuwu, so grieved, wuwuwu, hehehe.

However, it can also be seen that while Harvey Bullock took most of the credit, James Gordon was not as prominent.

Even though James Gordon actively put most of the credit on him.

This led to James Gordon only being successfully promoted from a Police Officer to a Sergeant.

However, when the Daughter of Gotham, the young lady of the Wayne Family, and the actual victim of the theft – Miss Gwen – visited the Police station, she was surprised to find that one of her benefactors, Mr. James Gordon, had only been promoted to Sergeant.

She was extremely surprised by this.

"Why is Officer Gordon still just a Sergeant? Officer Gordon is clearly so excellent!"

After saying this, Gwen casually strolled around the Police station before leaving.

The next day after she left, major newspapers began widely reporting the fact that the heroic Police Officer was still only a Sergeant.

On the third day, due to overwhelming public pressure, the newly appointed Director Harvey Bullock could only "reluctantly" promote Gordon to Deputy Director.

And after everything that could be done in Gotham during this period was completed, Gotham entered a period of peace.

As usual, gang fights and robbery crimes.

However, sometimes, those with bad luck would be double-crossed by the infamous Tiangong Society.

Meanwhile, Gwen was preparing to deal with something she had almost forgotten...

Inside the cold storage, the stark white fluorescent lights buzzed overhead, and frost covered the walls and floor like spiderwebs.

In the center, a female, stripped of her Talon combat suit, lay motionless on the ground with her eyes closed, ice crystals condensed on her eyelashes reflecting a cold light, like a cold corpse abandoned in a morgue.

Gwen rubbed her numb fingers, and the white breath she exhaled instantly condensed into tiny ice crystals.

She reached out and tapped the Talon, feeling like she was tapping on a block of ice.

But thankfully, although a thin layer of ice was attached to the other party's body, the Omnitrix's DNA repair function could still be used.

Gwen directly pressed her left hand with the watch onto the Talon's face, and the DNA repair program started automatically.

After a few seconds, as the Omnitrix beeped to indicate the repair was complete, Gwen finally released her hand.

"Alright, repair is complete. Two people, help me take her out."

Soon after she spoke, two figures like iron towers stepped into the cold storage, their muscles sculpted and strong, each step making the ground tremble slightly.

These two men were as large as Da Zhuang, and had to bend over when entering the ice storage.

They walked to the Talon's side, inserted their hands beneath her, and tried to lift her.

But despite the Talon appearing to be an ordinary female, her body was surprisingly heavy; these two large men strained, veins bulging, and gritted their teeth to exert force before they could lift her.

Gwen didn't think that Da Zhuang's soldiers were weak; she felt it was probably because the Talon's body had extremely high muscle and bone density.

Under Gwen's command, the two men painstakingly carried the Talon out of the cold storage.

After the two placed the Talon on the ground outside, Gwen nodded to them: "Thank you for your hard work."

Hearing their boss thank them, the two seemingly fierce big men showed honest smiles.

After the two retreated, Gwen gently tapped the Omnitrix.

A purple light flashed, and when the light dissipated, she had transformed into Heatblast.

She controlled her flames, allowing the heat wave to spread outwards from her.

She pushed her hands forward abruptly, and a large expanse of Fire surged out, enveloping the ice around the Talon.

Under the high-temperature scorching, the ice crackled, water droplets quickly appeared on its surface, and large chunks of ice began to peel off.

As the flames continued to heat, the melting ice Water converged into small streams, winding across the ground.

It was fortunate that the area outside the cold storage was already prepared for thawing, with drains on the ground, otherwise, the ground would have probably become a small pond.

Not long after, the ice completely melted, and the Talon's body gradually began to soften, then completely conformed to the ground.

Gwen then stopped emitting high temperatures, her figure once again enveloped by purple light, returning to her human form.

She stood silently to the side, her gaze fixed on the Talon.

Time passed minute by minute, and soon the Talon's eyelids trembled slightly, and she slowly began to open her eyes.

Suddenly, the Talon's eyes snapped open, a fierce glint flashing in them, like a startled beast.

Immediately after, she sprang up from the ground with astonishing speed, standing upright.

Her sudden movement startled Gwen, who had been closely watching her.

The Talon stood up, tilted her head back, and let out a deafening roar at the sky, the sound waves spreading outwards like surging tides, and a strong sense of oppression washed over them.
