Chapter 155 Return to Robinson Park (Two Chapters in One)
When the news of Bane just reached New York.
Barbara and Pamela quickly got the news from the news.
Then, Barbara, who was worried about the safety of her father and brothers, resolutely chose to return to Gotham to find out.
If possible, she had to stop the conspiracy of Bane and others.
Because time was tight, Barbara changed into Batgirl's suit in front of Pamela.
Using the bat claw grappling gun, she nimbly wandered through the high-rise buildings.
The speed was even faster than that of an ordinary sports car.
Although Pamela promised to keep Barbara's secret, she couldn't bear to see Barbara go to danger alone.
More importantly, the Kaito Kidd also issued a notice to steal Bane's nuclear bomb.
Others don't know that Kidd is Maggieson, but Pamela knows it.
If Barbara ran to Gotham, the two would inevitably meet in Bane's territory.
Pamela didn't know why Maggieson had to hide his identity from Barbara, but since he did so, Pamela thought that he must have his reasons.
So, even if Maggieson didn't ask her to help hide it, Pamela would help him spontaneously.
Pamela's help to Kaito Kidd was unconditional.
In the chaotic situation in Gotham now, Maggieson might not be able to show any flaws in front of Barbara as before.
He couldn't have the leisure to take care of Barbara.
So, no matter what the reason was, Pamela had to stay with Barbara.
Even if the price was that she had to confess her secret.
Because neither Barbara nor Pamela could swim safely to Gotham under normal circumstances.
So when Barbara drove the speedboat to the middle of the New York and Gotham waterway and was about to jump into the water, she was shocked to find that Pamela had followed her without knowing when.
And Pamela's appearance had completely changed.
Not only did her skin turn green, but her entire body also looked more like a plant.
She was also wearing a strange tights, which looked like a piece of clothing made of leaves. Not only did it look natural, but it was also very tight.
It perfectly highlighted Pamela's curvy figure.
Seeing this scene, Barbara's mind naturally easily associated it with the mysterious man who rescued Kaito Kidd at the Stock Fair.
She never thought that the mysterious man was actually her roommate and best friend Pamela.
But after thinking about it, there was nothing strange about it.
At first, Pamela went back to school on the pretext of feeling unwell, but when Barbara went back, she found that Pamela was in very good health.
Pamela liked Kaito Kidd so much, how could she miss Kidd's performance.
It turned out that she went to help Kidd, which was very reasonable.
Then Barbara also imagined that Pamela came to Gotham with her, probably to help Kaito Kidd deal with Bane.
What else is there to say? Since the two have a common goal, they hit it off immediately.
Pamela manipulated the plants to extend infinitely and brought Barbara to Gotham.
Robinson Central Park, one of the most important landmarks in Gotham City.
After leaving Miller Harbor, Barbara and Pamela rushed here.
This park with the largest area in Gotham has been completely closed at this moment.
There is nothing inside.
The good news is that no gang has sent people to occupy here.
After all, the location of the park is not at the border of Gotham, and it is on the ground, so there is no need to waste manpower here.
After all, Robinson Park is too big, and it takes a lot of people to defend it completely.
None of Bane, Penguin and Black Mask can afford such a loss.
However, in order to avoid the remnants of the gcpd in Gotham City and the rebels who are unwilling to accept the rule of the gangs, a secret base was established in Robinson Park.
They blocked every entrance to the park, and a high-voltage power grid was built in the outer circle, and the monitoring system was indispensable.
There was even a scarecrow who was so crazy that he set up fear traps all over the park.
In fact, it was not just Robinson Park, but all other places that the gangs did not want to occupy were made like this.
It fundamentally eliminated the possibility of Gotham citizens banding together to resist on a large scale.
Without a base, what can you use to band together?
Robinson Park has become a forbidden place for ordinary people.
But it is the perfect hiding place for Pamela.
Robinson Park has the largest plant coverage area in Gotham, and Poison Ivy will gain unprecedented power here.
And Pamela is immune to all toxins including fear gas.
The traps set by the scarecrow also lost their effect.
"Pamela, all the gates are sealed, and there is a high-voltage power grid blocking us. We can't get in."
Barbara looked at the park full of traps and was speechless.
Is it necessary to toss so much in a place that no one wants to come?
"It doesn't matter. These obstacles don't exist for me."
Pamela smiled.
She waved her hands, and the ground in front of her suddenly began to shake.
A crack slowly appeared in the middle of the land, and a sapling emerged from the crack.
It grew rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon became a big tree that three people could hug.
At this point, the shaking stopped, and there was no trace except that there was one more tree in the green belt in front of the park gate.
There are many trees around here, and one or two more is not a problem at all.
"You conjured a big tree out of thin air. I must admit that this is amazing, but...how do we get into the park?"
Barbara smiled awkwardly.
Pamela laughed and made a door-pulling gesture to the tree trunk in the air.
Then the bark was really pulled open like a door!
Barbara looked into the tree door and was shocked.
It turned out that there was a hollow tree hole inside the trunk. On the surface, it was a big tree, but in fact only the outer bark was real.
Pamela motioned Barbara to follow her into the tree hole.
Only then did Barbara discover that there was a tunnel under the tree, which led to the park.
Pamela closed the door of the tree hole, and the bark returned to its original state.
"Barbara, follow me."
Upon hearing this, Barbara nodded and waited for Pamela to jump down the tunnel before following.
After a while, Pamela stopped.
This is the exit of the tunnel.
Barbara waited for her next move.
"Barbara, I see a surveillance camera nearby, can you hack it?"
Pamela first closed her eyes and switched her perspective to the plants on the ground, only to find a surveillance camera.
"A piece of cake."
This is Barbara's specialty.
She took out her mobile phone and started to operate it.
A few dozen seconds later...
"Okay, I set the surveillance camera outside to loop the previously recorded content for ten minutes. During this time, no matter what we do, we will not be recorded."
Barbara made an OK gesture to Pamela.
After getting confirmation, Pamela waved her hand, and a hole opened automatically in the ground above her head, and the two women climbed out of the hole.
Hmm... the ground above her head, it sounds a bit strange, but it is true.
As soon as she came out from underground, Pamela took a deep breath with an intoxicated look.
"Barbara, I have never felt so good as I do now... I, I feel great!"
Pamela looked down at her hands, clenching them for a while and opening them for a while.
A stream of warm feeling flowed into Pamela's body from the ground covered with flowers and plants, and Poison Ivy's superpowers suddenly increased several times.
For the first time in her life, she felt that she really possessed something like "power".
Pamela knew very well that she didn't need anyone's help or protection at this moment. On the contrary, she could protect others.
For a long time after her power was awakened, Pamela hated the experiment that turned her into this.
She hated the green appearance.
It was not until she used her power to rescue McGinson for the first time that Pamela began to feel that the superpower of controlling plants was not useless.
"If I had this ability at the beginning, I could protect my father from being killed by Daggett... At the very least, I could avenge him."
Pamela thought.
"But... In this way, I may never see him again in my life..."
Pamela couldn't tell whether it was good or bad to get power after going to New York.
"Come on, Barbara, let's go this way."
There was no time to continue to think about it, Pamela asked Barbara to set off together.
Next, the two of them would switch to the plant perspective to explore the situation, and once they found the monitoring equipment, they would let Barbara hack it.
If other traps or fear gas are found, Pamela will destroy them.
Although Pamela is theoretically absolutely immune to fear gas, she is not idle enough to take the initiative to inhale it.
Let the branches trigger the trap instead of people.
The amount of fear gas in each trap is very small and can be completely absorbed by the plants.
There is no obstruction along the way.
They came to the playground area. Why did they come here? Of course, it is because only here are there a large number of convenience stores and tourist restaurants.
After all, few people will open stores in the woods to sell things.
They don’t know when the incident in Gotham will end. This may be a protracted war.
Without enough living supplies, they will be unable to move.
Fortunately, Robinson Park was blocked very early, and most of the supplies inside were well preserved.
There is plenty of drinking water and various snacks in the convenience store, and there are also a lot of dry food such as bread and sandwiches.
The refrigerator in the restaurant even stored some vegetables and meat. Although they were definitely not fresh, they were at least not spoiled.
Because the high-voltage power grid outside the park had to be maintained, the park did not lose power and the refrigerator was still operating normally.
In this way, Barbara and Pamela found their secret base.
"I must first confirm how my father and little James are doing now."
In the tourist restaurant, Barbara told her next move.
"Pamela, do you have any plans? Kaito Kidd's whereabouts are mysterious, and it's too difficult to find him."
"It doesn't matter. He said in the preview that he would steal the nuclear bomb on the full moon day, so he will definitely show up at that time."
Pamela told Barbara that she didn't need to worry.
"When the time comes, I will go to help him."
"Then why did you come to Gotham so many days in advance?"
Barbara asked curiously.
Hearing this, Pamela frowned and grabbed Barbara's ear with lightning speed.
"Why do you even need to ask? Do you think I don't care about anyone except Kidd?"
"I am your senior, both at Gotham University and NYU, and we are still good friends now, aren't we?"
"Hey, Pamela, you're pinching me so hard!"
Barbara begged for mercy immediately.
Pamela snorted coldly and let go of her hand.
"How can I watch a stupid girl like you die alone?"
Barbara rubbed her ears that were red from being pinched, and couldn't help feeling a lingering fear.
Just now, she couldn't even resist at all, and could only be pulled by Pamela motionlessly.
"Besides, why does Pamela feel like a completely different person? She is usually so gentle..."
Barbara thought to herself, but didn't say it out loud.
She also didn't say one thing, that is, she was very touched that Pamela accompanied her to Gotham to take risks.
"From the location, GCPD is closer to here than Gotham Middle School."
After the farce, Pamela and Barbara talked about business.
"The latest news we can get is that Commissioner Gordon was shot in the battle with Bane and was sent to the police hospital of GCPD. His life or death is currently unknown."
"When James was in class at Gotham Middle School, the school was suddenly attacked by thugs. Countless students died. His life or death is currently unknown, but it is more likely to be bad."
Barbara said this information with worry.
"Let's split up now. I'll go to Gotham Middle School, which is farther away, to find your brother, and you go to find Commissioner Gordon. How about that?"
Pamela suggested that she would take the initiative to go to Gotham Middle School. The farther the journey, the more dangers she might encounter in the middle.
"Whether we find him or not, we must return here before dawn."
Barbara knew that Pamela was stronger than herself, so she didn't argue with her on this issue.
"Pamela, be careful."
"You too."
Just as the two women were acting separately, Maggieson also brought Charlie to a place with broken walls and ruins.
"There are no surveillance equipment nearby, and there are no gangsters."
It was still Charlie's reconnaissance plane that took the lead. After confirming that it was safe, Maggieson walked out of the darkness.
"I didn't expect Gotham Middle School to have been destroyed like this..."
Looking at the ruins in front of him and countless broken limbs, Maggieson couldn't help but sigh.
This was also where he went to school, leaving a lot of memories.
Maggieson didn't expect it to be so coincidental that the route he randomly chose could just reach Gotham Middle School.
"Charlie, are there any living people here?"
Charlie's nose moved hard and nodded very affirmatively.
"There are many survivors in the school, and they are all hiding in deep places."
