Pamela cleared her throat and said, "Then we are in the same boat. The investors behind my plant laboratory suffered heavy losses in the chemical plant attack. In order to get the next round of research funding, I have to come and teach them a lesson."
"Humph, these idiots really don't know their place." Talia said, "Our plan was at the final stage, but they messed it up. I lost a lot of money and many partners. Since you're here to cause trouble for them, I think we can work together."
"No problem." Pamela nodded and said, "But I heard that you are not the only one whose business has been robbed. You should know the number one mercenary Deathstroke who was involved in the previous securities manufacturing case, right?"
"Of course, he did it very well. But what happened to him?"
"Task Force X also offended him. I don't know the details, but he should be looking for trouble with them as well."
"That has nothing to do with me. Besides, even without you, it won't be difficult for the Assassin's League to deal with them."
"You don't know yet, do you? This time they found two capable helpers." Pamela shook her head and said, "Two Batmen from other universes came. They reached a cooperation with Waller. If we don't work together, we might really be disrupted by these two guys."
"Batman from another universe?" Talia frowned. She didn't have a good impression of the former Batman Bruce.
"That's right." Pamela said slightly exaggeratedly, "Batman is always a troublemaker. Besides, I heard that Batman and Superman came together. If he can't beat them, he will call his teammates. Can you beat Superman?"
Talia's face turned ugly. She knew something about Superman. No matter how smart Batman was, he was just an ordinary person. He had no advantage against the ninjas who came and went without a trace. But Superman was different. He could kill a ninja like a chicken.
"Tell me about your plan," Talia said.
On the other side, Deathstroke had already reached the base. He leaned against the wall by the window and said to Brainiac, "How are you going to put the camera in? Do you need me to shoot?"
"No need. You wait here for a while. Pamela is almost done talking. Wait for them to come over and join you, then you can attack together."
Deathstroke nodded, indicating that he had no objection. However, he was also very curious about how Brainiac planned to put cameras on the members of Task Force X.
About two minutes later, Deathstroke heard the roar of a motorcycle. He thought it was Batman coming, but when the motorcycle appeared in his field of vision, it was printed with the logo of a noodle shop.
The motorcycle stopped in front of the yard, and the delivery guy shouted loudly: "Takeout!" Not long after, the Death Shooter came out.
"Here's your fried noodles." The delivery guy handed over the box and said, "This is our restaurant's point collection card. Whether you're dining in or taking out, you can get one for free as long as you collect 10 points."
Death Shooter took the box from him, then took the points card and saw that it had seven holes punched in it.
"Oh, it's because we wanted seven, right?"
"That's right." The delivery guy nodded and said, "If you order three more, you can get one for free."
"This is a great activity." Death Shooter smiled and put the point collection card in his pocket. Under the sunlight, some of the words on the card shone with a metallic luster.
When he returned to the house, Deathstroke jumped down from the tree nearby and said, "If Batman knew that you let them carry the surveillance cameras so easily, he would definitely feel that he was unlucky."
"No," Brainiac said. "I don't know if you humans have some quirk. Many industrial parts are large and complicated, but cameras are designed to be very advanced, small and hidden. So this is not entirely my fault."
Soon Deathstroke heard the sound of the helicopter again. He quickly hid in the tree again and hid himself. A helicopter with the "FBI" logo printed on it landed next to the house.
The two Batmen got off the helicopter and walked towards the front door of the house. The location of the Deathstroke was just in the blind spot of their sight, and they did not find the hidden Deathstroke.
Although the camera had been installed, Deathstroke did not check it out immediately. Soon he saw Pamela and Talia walking towards him under the cover of the vines.
"Did you see the helicopter too?" asked Deathstroke.
Although Pamela came with him, in order not to expose their alliance, she still acted cautiously and was the first to bargain.
"That's right, and we also saw that Batman chose to join them. You should know how difficult Batman is. Since you are also here to cause trouble for these people, why don't we cooperate."
Deathstroke hesitated, and after a long while he spoke: "I am a mercenary, I don't have so many personal grudges. To be honest, it was my boss who wanted to cause trouble for them."
"But he shouldn't have stipulated that you must act alone, right? As long as we eliminate them here, you will have completed your mission," Talia said.
"That's right," Pamela agreed, "and it can save you a lot of time, especially in logistics."
"You mean you'll be in charge of the cleanup?"
"The Assassin's League will clean up the battlefield." Talia did not hide anything and said directly, "No matter how many people die, nothing will be left here. You can rest assured."
"Okay." Deathstroke finally nodded and said, "But you have to listen to me when it comes to offensive tactics. Otherwise, it will be difficult for us to defeat Batman."
Talia frowned slightly, but Pamela gave her a look and whispered, "He's the world's best mercenary. He must be quite capable. Don't you want to see for yourself?"
Talia finally agreed to Deathstroke's proposal. However, she did not give the command of the ninja to Deathstroke, but listened to his battle plan first.
Several people began to study the battle plan on the grass behind a bush near the house. Death Bell spread the house structure diagram he had obtained earlier on the ground, pointed at a few windows and said:
"Considering that most of them need a large and open space to display their abilities, we have to trap them in the house. First, you have to send someone to block this place..."
It must be said that Deathstroke's tactical skills were indeed top-notch. With the floor plan of the battlefield and the information of several people, he was even more powerful. After all the arrangements, even Talia could not find any faults.
Deathstroke's thinking is actually easy to understand. Most of the people in Task Force X are not a threat to the ninja who can hide at any time. For example, the dead shooter must aim before shooting to hit. If he can't see, then his ability is useless.
The other people didn't have any special detection abilities, so if they wanted to deal with the ninjas, they could only resort to large-scale group attacks.
But this is not a game, you can't turn off friendly fire. To use group attacks to find out the position of the ninja, the environment must be open enough and the formation can be spread out. If everyone stands together and you use a big move to hit it, it will really destroy the world.
So Deathstroke chose to have people block the doors and windows, and then send ninjas to raid and harass. If you want to run out one by one, you will naturally fall into the pile of ninjas; if you hide in the house, you will most likely be attacked by friendly forces.
The ninjas were responsible for blocking the door and harassing, while Pamela and Deathstroke were responsible for killing. The reason for making such an arrangement was naturally because the two of them had selfish motives.
Now it is not certain whether these people can resist the ninja. If Talia kills them all, Amanda will have no fun and can only go back to her hometown to farm.
If they want Amanda to hire them, they have to injure but not kill, so that the team will suffer serious damage and lose combat capability, but they can make up for it by hiring other people. That will be their chance. Therefore, they must take the initiative in the battle into their own hands.
Talia had no objection to this. Because it was obvious that blocking the door and harassing the enemy was much easier, while rushing in to fight in close combat would be more likely to cause a counterattack before death, resulting in heavy losses. It would be better to leave it to outsiders.
The ninjas acted according to plan, ambushing in front of the door and windows. Deathstroke went around to the back window, while Pamela went directly to the front door.
She came to the gate and rang the doorbell. She could see a figure flashing in the window, as if someone stood up and wanted to open the door, but another dark figure stopped him.
"Batman is really alert," Pamela whispered, "but it's useless."
After saying that, she stretched out a hand, and a vine smashed the window directly. She also flipped over from the outside of the courtyard wall, and waved her hands forward vigorously. Countless thick vines broke out of the ground and directly wrapped around the house tightly.
There was a commotion in the house. Black smoke was rising. It must be the ninjas rushing in to harass. Pamela jumped in through the broken window, and a boomerang flashing with cold light flew past her ear.
Pamela looked up and saw a man standing on the second floor with two more boomerangs in his hands, ready to throw them.
Suddenly, the flowers in the flowerpot on the second-floor balcony moved violently and flew over directly, pulling the flowerpot with it.
boom!
A flower pot hit Captain Boomerang's head hard, knocking him down from the second floor and onto the ground on the first floor, and also hit the witch who had just gotten into position to use magic.
The witch was thin to begin with, and was not good at close combat. Captain Boomerang was not overweight, but he was still an adult male. He fell from a height of two or three meters and hit the witch, breaking her ribs.
"Ugh!!" the witch screamed.
But the others had no time to pay attention to her, because at this time Deathstroke also rushed in from the window at the back and shot a burst of bullets at the figure in the middle of the living room. Batman shot two bursts of bullets.
The first person to be shot was Slipknot, who was closer to the rear window. He was eating fried noodles and didn't even have time to grab the rope. The bullet went straight into his chest, and he lay on the ground bleeding profusely. Not much sound came out soon after.
Captain Boomerang, who had just gotten up from the ground, was hit from the back and fell to the ground. The witch seemed to have some magical powers, and the bullets failed to hit her, but the fire suppression caused her to hide behind the sofa in embarrassment and dare not come out.
Batman's reaction was the fastest of all. When the window was broken, they had already taken cover - but in the wrong direction. The one who rushed in from the front had no gun. Deathstroke shot from the back, and Batman was also hit in the shoulder by a bullet.
Because the dead shooter was standing close enough to the door and there were large items in front of him, such as a sofa, he was not shot at first. After he reacted, he raised his gun and aimed, but Deathstroke caught him in time. After firing a burst of bullets, he directly climbed out the window. When the dead shooter raised his gun, the target person was no longer in range.
By the time he turned the gun towards Pamela, Pamela had already rushed to the second floor under the cover of bullets.
