Chapter 1665 - God-like Client



Chapter 1665: God-like Client

Forget threatening the other party, it was either the fish died or the net split.

The political enemies of these bigshots would be happy to capture Amanda and torture her for information.

Obtaining intelligence was certainly beneficial, but even if a fish like her died, what would be broken was the enemy’s net, and it would still be a happy ending.

After Luke publicly took down the siblings, there had been a fatal slip in Amanda’s control over the shadow man.

Previously, the shadow man hadn’t dared to have any other thoughts because of the Enchantress’s power.

A witch with the ability to teleport and control minds could find him and bring him back in a matter of minutes.

Thus, the shadow man hadn’t even dared think about running.

When Batman had sounded him out, he could only leave quietly and not dwell on it.

But the Enchantress and her brother had been taken care of by Dark Knight and Iron Man in Grand Rapids, which was what cinched things for him.

Uneasy, the shadow man had secretly probed the waters for a few months and repeatedly confirmed that the information wasn’t fake.

Now, Amanda’s power was shaky and she had lost the Enchantress. It was very hard for her to keep the hot potato that was the shadow man under control, so the only thing she could do was dispose of him.

It just so happened that the shadow man had the same idea.

He was very careful.

It took a few months before he could confirm that an opportunity had arrived, and he sought out the person he had been thinking about day and night… Dark Knight.

Actually, he trusted Batman more.

But Batman had already died in the Battle of New York, and he could only look for Dark Knight.

At the very least, Dark Knight was known as Batman’s successor, and he had taken down the Enchantress and her brother.

After sending out the address of the main base, the shadow man started a long wait — indeed, 37 hours of sleepless waiting was very long.

It was when his head was feeling muddled that he suddenly felt a surveillance camera stop working for a few seconds.

He jerked and opened his tired eyes.

Then, he came back to his senses, closed his eyes again, and pressed his hands to the console.

The metal tabletop which could calm his thoughts in the past couldn’t suppress the nervousness and excitement that he was feeling now.

He had to confirm as soon as possible that the anomaly was caused by Dark Knight.

If that was the case, he had to start his escape plan as soon as possible.

Dark Knight was Batman’s successor.

The people whom he had entrusted the cleanup operations to had killed everyone without blinking an eye. There were practically no survivors in any of the four bases.

Thinking of how he had helped Amanda wrap up a lot of the dirty work, the shadow man didn’t think that he could escape death if he was caught.

He had lured Dark Knight over just to make it easier for him to escape.

After that, even if Dark Knight didn’t catch Amanda, she probably wouldn’t be in the mood to look for him.

He would fade out of existence and live quietly in this world.

As for things like fake masks, an identity, and money, they weren’t a problem at all.

He could make a certified passport for himself at any time.

He also knew the accounts for Amanda’s stash of dirty money. He could easily withdraw tens of millions, and that vicious female gorilla wouldn’t even know that the money was gone.

When money turned into virtual numbers on the Internet, it disappeared so easily.

The shadow man swiftly activated the highest-level monitoring system and found an unfamiliar signal source, which surrounded the base.

This signal source was quite unique and couldn’t be tracked, but there were as many as four of them.

Seeing this, he suddenly opened his eyes. These were the Dark Knight’s people.

He had discovered this unusual signal in the sub-bases that had been destroyed previously. It had come from a group of people in black armor.

He didn’t know who these people were, but they were without doubt Dark Knight’s accomplices, ranging from two to five people, who ensured that no one in any of the bases could escape.

He had kept this a secret from Amanda.

Unhampered by the terrain, the shadow man had watched silently as the superhero called Big Dipper worked with the people in black armor to besiege a base, before he quietly left.

Mind racing, he worked quickly in the main base.

He needed temporary authority over the evacuation passage.

The route that the automatic cleaning trolley took had to be adjusted to make it easier for him to hide in it.

He also needed temporary authority to open the door to the room where he had put his escape props.

Lastly, there was a car that he had secretly placed outside earlier. It could be automatically moved to stop outside the evacuation passage, so that he could get in as soon as he came out.

The surveillance cameras wouldn’t capture him.

When he ran, they would play footage on a loop for five minutes.

He had arranged all this in the last few months, and now got things done quickly with his ability.

Less than ten seconds later, he got up and left the room.

The guards nearby had left for a temporary inspection, giving the shadow man a chance to escape.

Passing through two hallways, he entered a utility room and quickly put on a security uniform.

As soon as he came out of the room, an automatic cleaning trolley drove over. A cover on the cleaning trolley popped open. He dismantled the vacuum bag that was inside before crawling in.

The space wasn’t big, but the shadow man was small to begin with, and weighed no more than 90 kilograms. After shifting around with difficulty, he put the cover back on.

The cleaning trolley moved forward unhurriedly again as it continued with its daily sweep.

Five minutes later, a car drove out of the base.

The shadow man took out a remote, and the metal gate slowly opened.

The two guards looked at the tablets they were carrying and saw that the car was registered to an administrative secretary at the base.

This secretary often “worked” overtime with Amanda until midnight before leaving, and he drove this car.

Since he also had the key for opening the gate, the two guards naturally didn’t stop him. Instead, they joked together in low voices about how the secretary had it tough.

The car drove further and further away, and the light of the base’s exit soon could no longer be seen behind it.

The shadow man heaved a sigh of relief. He took out a phone and saw that 32 guards had already disappeared from their positions.

Thanks to his pre-arrangements, however, the alarm had not been sounded at all, and the 200 guards inside were still unaware of the danger.

Goodbye, ARGUS! Goodbye, Amanda, you d*mn gorilla!

There was a relieved expression on the shadow man’s thin face. The sky in front of him was vast and dark, but in his heart was a blue sky and blue ocean, and a beauty on a beach.

Hm, it definitely had to be a hot young woman with curves.

Just nice, he could go to Brazil and avoid the possibility of Amanda tracking him down. Only after confirming that the female gorilla was dead would he return to America in a couple of years.

But he had to keep his word.

Besides, that was Dark Knight, Batman’s legitimate successor.

The shadow man was a hardcore Batman fan, and was able to escape thanks to Dark Knight killing the Enchantress. He still had to keep his promise.

The shadow man smiled and quickly sent a new message via the communication channel.

This time, it wasn’t some text file or deliberately cryptic webpage link.

Coordinates, an address, a profile image and relevant information were all gathered into one file and thrown into the communication channel.
