"This doesn't seem like something Bane would do."
Sportsmaster also crouched down next to the unconscious cultist. He roughly grabbed the latter and slapped him.
A loud slap sound echoed through the narrow Control Center. The hood of the attacked cultist was knocked off by the slap. Looking at his swollen cheek, one might wonder if he'd be slapped to death.
"Hiss~ ah!" After waking up, the cultist subconsciously covered his cheek. When he opened his eyes again, he saw Sportsmaster's cold eyes, and was so scared he almost peed his pants.
"Tell me, what happened?" Sportsmaster released his right hand that was grabbing the cultist's collar. "Who attacked you?"
"Re... Report!" The cultist covered his mouth. Because his face was swollen, his speaking tone was very strange. "I... I don't know, I don't even know what happened..."
"Very effective anesthetic." King Snake extracted a trace of key information from the cultist's words. "This kind of high-quality goods is hard to get even outside of Saint Prisca Island, let alone here."
The implication was that Bane, in a dead-end situation, shouldn't be able to obtain such a thing. The attacker of the Control Center must be someone else.
Sportsmaster agreed with King Snake's statement. His eyes began to scan the room. As the saying goes, "Heaven rewards diligence," and he quickly found something useful.
Sportsmaster pushed away the cultist who had fallen in front of him, leaned his body towards the operation console, reached under the chair, and picked up a thing from underneath.
The thing looked very inconspicuous, a black sphere split in the middle, looking like a capsule for storing something.
Sportsmaster, with his rich criminal experience, recognized what this thing was at a glance, and he was also very familiar with the master of this thing.
"Hypnotic gas grenade, Batman?"
King Snake was also experienced and knowledgeable; of course, he could also recognize this thing, but his statement did not get Sportsmaster's support. The latter shook his head and said.
"No, not Batman. If it were the latter, then there should be others from the Justice League coming along. We should have been surrounded long ago."
Sportsmaster thought for a moment, and the gang of kids who had been very active recently immediately appeared in his brain. Among them was Batman's little helper, and the opponent should also be using this kind of standard equipment.
"It's Robin. It seems the Young Justice has infiltrated Saint Prisca Island."
"So, the Justice League already knows what we are doing here?" King Snake frowned at first, then the corner of his mouth hooked up, and he said with a smile.
"That's great. I thought their eyes were blind, and they would never discover this aspect."
Sportsmaster's corner of mouth under the mask also hooked up when he heard this, and said, "Very good, now what we have to do is to let that gang of kids do more, King Snake?"
"I have already notified the cultists under my hand." King Snake nodded. "They are already blocking the doorway of Bane's secret passage, and manpower has also been deployed in those relatively flat places."
"It won't be easy for them to escape."
…
'Seriously, what exactly did you guys discover?'
In the long tunnel, the members of Young Justice were retreating. Wally, who was full of curiosity, couldn't help but ask in the mind link.
'Cobra Cult is just a gang of thugs. The Light's shadow is behind Saint Prisca Island.'
Robin knew that everyone had questions in their hearts, and he didn't hide anything. He directly summarized what he had searched for and said it. The amount of message in this sentence was very explosive, and it directly shocked several people who knew about The Light.
'What... The Light?' Wonder Girl, as a newcomer, didn't know. Wally immediately kindly explained it to her.
'Simply put, it's a gang of crime organizations hiding in the dark. Their scale is particularly large, and everything else is a mystery. By the way, Subject O is what we rescued from their hands.'
Wonder Girl took time to glance at Habby. She didn't expect that the other party had such a past.
'Let's talk about chatting when we get back.' Robin interrupted the exchange between the two. Even if telepathy doesn't need to make a sound, the sound that directly appears in the brain will still affect other people's ideas.
The two immediately stopped talking and concentrated on retreating. It has to be said that Young Justice is becoming more and more like a formal team. Everyone will not only listen to Robin's words, but also pay attention to team spirit at ordinary times.
For example, even when retreating now, Kid Flash would not deliberately show off his speed that he is proud of and run far ahead, but instead withdraw in an orderly manner with the main force.
'Almost there.' Robin felt the breeze coming from the front. Sure enough, when he looked up, he saw the tunnel exit with a faint light.
'Wait a minute, everyone, there is a situation ahead.' Miss Martian suddenly opened her mouth and stopped everyone. At this time, the color of her eyes' irises changed slightly, obviously using a special vision.
'In the trees fifty meters ahead of the tunnel exit, there is a pile of people ambushing inside.'
'They are really fast!' Robin gritted his teeth secretly. The Light are smarter than he thought. Bane has been kept in the dark. He is still having a sweet dream of regaining the processing plant, but he doesn't know that the other party has already figured out his hometown.
If Bane rushes in rashly, it is estimated that he will only experience failure again.
'Miss Martian, how many people are there?'
Miss Martian scanned around and said, "There are about twenty people. It is not clear whether anyone has a device to avoid infrared detection."
'This message is enough.' Robin lowered his head and thought for a while. 'It seems that this business cannot be resolved peacefully. We can only break through the encirclement.'
This is a method that is not a method. They who have been exposed have only this one way to go. After all, there is signal interference here, and they have no way to ask the Justice League for support.
'Remember to move fast, we have to solve everyone before the opponent's support arrives!'
'Roger!' ×5
…
Outside the tunnel, a gang of Cobra Cult thugs were lying in ambush in the trees. These people would not complain because the mission was boring or tiring. This is because the doctrine of Cobra Cult is different from that of ordinary crime organizations.
Cobra Cult, a word 'Cult' can explain everything. Like those harmful cults, they also rely on doctrine brainwashing to control their subordinates.
People who have been brainwashed are far more loyal than the subordinates of ordinary crime gangs. Not to mention demanding high reward, some even dedicate everything they have to the organization.
This kind of organization with doctrine is the most difficult to destroy, even the Justice League feels a headache.
At this time, this gang of fanatical cultists were guarding outside the tunnel, just waiting for the people who blasphemed the holy doctrine to run out, and then surrounded them and took them all down.
