call!

The window curtains fluttered as if being blown by the gust of wind.

In the next second, his figure disappeared in place.

Reporter K, Chris, came out of Lex Luthor's residence and drove to his residence in a car.

The car jolted on the uneven road, and the dim light shone on his calm face every now and then.

After driving for half an hour, the car stopped at a single-family villa on the outskirts of Smallville.

Chris got out of the car and entered the old villa surrounded by darkness and weight.

tread! tread! tread!

In the corridor that smelled of rotten wood, Chris's footsteps were stepping on it, which was particularly clear in the silent night.

There are several paintings hanging on the gloomy corridor walls.

The first picture is of an owl standing on a branch outside the window, its eyes glowing with eerie red light, staring at the scene inside the window.

The middle one is the famous scene of "Aaron's son died blasphemy" in the book of Hebrews of the New Testament.

In the picture, the sons of Aaron, Nadda and Abihu, blasphemed the gods because they took out ordinary fire privately, and were burned by the heavenly fire that descended from the gods.

The last painting in the corridor simply depicts a black owl mask with quaint patterns.

"Squeak!"

Pushing open the door, Chris entered the room.

Putting down the briefcase in his hand, he took out an owl mask very similar to the portrait in the hallway from the cabinet and put it on his head.

Then turn on the notebook and switch on the projection device.

The picture of the remote connection was instantly projected on the wall.

On the other end of the connection that Chris connected, was a small parliamentary hall full of force.

The walls of the parliamentary hall are decorated with stained glass and several frescoes reflecting religious and knightly styles.

The seats in the parliamentary hall were closely placed up and down. The seats were all black, and several men and women wearing black dresses and owl masks full of aristocratic atmosphere sat on them.

"Chris."

A man in a black robe and a black owl mask sitting in the main seat in the parliamentary hall asked Chris on the remote video call: "You were ordered to monitor Lex Luthor of the Luthor family, now call the parliament Everyone, do you have important information to provide us?"

The voice of the man in black robe was low and full of magnetism, exuding a majestic and inviolable aura.

"Yes, Mr. Speaker, I have gained the trust of Lex Luthor."

"Very well! We are rooted in the Metropolis, once standing behind every wall, hiding in every shadow, shaking the Metropolis at the mere whisper, and asking our permission for a leaf to fall. The Golden Age, we Standing on the top of the metropolis! We are also the masters of this city, but..."

The tone of the speaker's voice changed, "The rise of the Luthor Enterprise has cut the path of the parliament and stood on the opposite side of the parliament. Little do we know that our first blood is the first thing to happen! Waiting for the Luthor family, only Destruction!"

After the Speaker finished the crusade declaration against the Luthor family, Chris continued to report: "Lex Luthor asked me to investigate the Smallville Town High School Prom case, but a few days ago, I suddenly asked me to investigate two high school students. "

"High school student?"

"Yes, Mr. Speaker, and he seems to be very concerned about these two high school students, and even has a kind of fear."

The black-robed speaker on the other end of the remote video was silent for a moment and asked, "Is there something that scares Lex Luthor? Didn't you explain to us before that Lex is a person who is so calm and intelligent that his heart is almost filled with reason. .There is also fear in such a person?!"

"It's a little weird to say that, but ... it's true."

Chris said respectfully,

"Tell me those two names that make Lex shy."

"Yes, the other party is Smallville..."

Before Chris finished speaking, the remote connection to the laptop connection was suddenly interrupted.

The projection equipment was also turned off in an instant.

"Interesting! Owl's Council?"

Chapter 29 I am a native of the motherland

"Who?!"

Shocked, Chris stood up abruptly and looked behind him.

A shadow stood behind him at some point, staring at him coldly in the darkness.

The dangerous aura exuded from the opponent's body made him even feel a terrifying trembling feeling in the face of natural enemies.

"You haven't been investigating me? Mr. reporter, don't you know me?"

Eric took a step forward, walking from the dark shadow to the place lit by the dim moonlight.

Through the thin moonlight, Chris saw Eric's face and took a step back in shock.

"Eric Kent?! You... how could you not...?!"

"Come in without triggering the alarm?"

Eric stretched his hand forward, and the infrared sensor device was held in his hand, and it shattered with a light grip.

"This kind of thing to deal with little thieves, unfortunately, can't do anything for me."

Eric ignored Mr. Reporter's appearance as if he was facing a major enemy, and his tone was still relaxed, "I originally thought you were simply employed by Lex Luthor, but I didn't expect your real face to be an owl."

"What... what?"

Chris took a step back, pretending to be confused.

But the next second, a gust of wind blew across his face.

When he reacted, his face froze!

Reaching out his hand and stroking his face, he found that his owl mask was gone.

He raised his head and looked at Eric, and found that the mask appeared in the other's hand.

Ignoring Chris, who was in a state of shock, Eric felt the patterns on the owl mask and said in a relaxed tone: "I once heard a nursery rhyme circulating in Gotham: Beware of the court of owls, keep an eye on them. You go out. Peeking into Gotham City from the shadows, hiding in a low-walled attic."

"It is said that some famous families with a long history in the dark city of Gotham formed the 'Owl Court', using their power and influence to control the direction of Gotham politics, ruling the city with their own ideas, using the name 'Minions' assassins carry out assassinations and terror."

Eric paused for a moment and said, "I thought it was an urban legend, but I didn't expect to see an owl in Gotham, but instead I saw an owl in the Metropolis, which surprised me!"

"I...I don't understand what you're talking about!"

Chris continued to play foolishly and stepped back.

Just now Eric took off his mask before he could react, and he realized that the other party was definitely a dangerous person, and he couldn't fight it.

All that can be done now is to stall for time in the hope of finding an opportunity to escape.

"No, of course you do. Chris!"

Eric took a step forward and said, "I'm very interested in owls, you know? My father let go of an owl in the barn this morning, and I caught an owl here, very interesting, no ?"

"What do you want to do? Eric Kent!"

Chris's head was dripping with sweat, and he said sternly, "You can't get anything from me."

"I will, Chris."

Eric took another step forward.

In his previous life, he had only heard that there was an "Owl Court" in Gotham City, and the other party also tossed Batman a lot, but he didn't expect that there was still an "Owl Council" in the Metropolis!

Of course, he will not miss this prey when he is happy to see the hunter.

Not to mention the wealth accumulated by the Owl Council dormant in the metropolis for decades or even hundreds of years, the countless secret information in the hands of the other party is also worth his shot.

As for the resistance and retaliation of the so-called "Owl Council", as long as the other party is cut down by its roots, it does not pose any threat.

Anyway, it's a bunch of scum, and it's just dead, just to purify the air.

"Tell me the address of the Owl Council, and the identities of those 'Owl Masked Men', Chris, and I'll spare you."

"Don't even think about it!"

Chris, who retreated to the side of the closet, roared and rushed towards Eric.

At this time, he took out a pair of "finger tigers" from the cabinet, but with sharp dagger-like weapons on his hands, and attacked Eric.

Sharp "claws" whistled in the air.

Facing Chris' attack, Eric didn't dodge, he stretched out his right hand and grabbed the opponent's "claw" at once!

The sharp weapon that can cut through steel was firmly grasped by Eric.

Then Eric's unhappy left fist hit the opponent's chest.

Bang!

It made a muffled sound as if hitting a sandbag.

Chris was struck by lightning, his eyes widened, and his entire strong body smashed out like a cannonball.

The body slammed heavily on the wall cabinet, smashing the solid solid wood wall cabinet into pieces, and the shards of wood flew around.

Chris lay on the ground, breathing heavily, red blood dripping from his nose and mouth.

"You monster...!"

Chris, who struggled to get up, vomited blood from his throat and cursed Eric.

He had never seen such strength and speed as Eric!

Speed ​​Force seizes the mask he wears, and his body is so strong that he can ignore his own attacks...

Such a variety is simply beyond his own cognition!

Even Talon, the legendary killer of Gotham City's "Court of Owls", is far from it.

A fear suddenly arose in his heart. If the Owl Council of the Metropolis was targeted by him, it would definitely be wiped out!

Eric walked to the other side and looked down at him condescendingly, his eyes were indifferent and his voice was cold.

"So... did you choose to surrender to the monster?"

"Don't think about it!"

"Fuck!"

The laser was instantly emitted from Eric's eyes, and the heat line of sight carrying huge energy directly pierced through the opponent's heart, ending his life in an instant.

......

"what happened?!"

"Has it been hacked? Why was the communication cut off?"

The gentlemen and ladies in the Owl Council couldn't keep their gentlemanly manners because they couldn't contact Chris, and they talked in panic.

"Silence! Silence!"

The man in black, who was the president of the parliament, knocked on the table, signaling everyone to be quiet.

After knocking on the table a few times to stop the noise of the crowd, I was ready to say something.

But the remote video session suddenly reconnected.

To the surprise of everyone in the parliament, the person on the other end of the remote communication was not Chris, but a person whose face was hidden in the shadows.

"Who are you? Where's Chris?"

"died."

Eric replied in a slightly hoarse voice without waves of Furui.

"You did it?!"

"It seems so."

"You never know what kind of existence you provoke!"

The president's voice was filled with hatred and anger, "No matter where you flee, the owl will chase you, monitor you, and even take your head even if you lie between the beds!"

"Now, tell me your name, God Punisher!"

Eric moved his body forward, revealing the lower half of his face (chin).

"Iahonder. (I am from the motherland
