In that second, all the card draw results appeared, though the cards had yet to be flipped.

Four bronze, two pure white, three silver, one gold.

Then, the cards flipped from left to right. Vivi arranged them in order of rarity from lowest to highest and decided to start with the bronze ones—

With diamonds being so hard to come by, she hoped they wouldn’t disappoint her.

【Bronze·Item: Warhorse】

——Bind to any character, allowing you to summon a loyal warhorse at any time and place for transportation or battle.

【Bronze·Item: A Bunch of Colorful Balloons】

——Take one, and another will appear, so they never run out. Though not very useful, they are hard to destroy and are a delight for children.

【Bronze·Scene: Mysterious Glimmer】

——A scene that can be placed anywhere and taken down at any time. Most people will instinctively fear this light, though occasionally, the opposite might happen.

【Bronze·Clothing: All-Season Girl’s Outfit in Khaki】

——The system detected your common clothing and provided four sets for quick switching. No thanks necessary.

Wow, a horse! Vivi actually wanted to summon the horse right there, but considering this was the warden’s office, it wasn’t suitable for a horse to run around.

She decided to bind the horse to the identity of [Vivi]. Bella had a motorcycle, the Mayor had a driver, and Mr. C didn’t care, so Vivi would be the one riding the horse—now Vivi’s interface wouldn’t be so empty!

The colorful balloons filled the entire office, all tied to a pull ring, looking rather ordinary.

The mysterious glimmer was an item that could adjust size and shape, even covering oneself, like a game texture controlled by the player, good for adding a sense of mystery.

Finally, she switched into a spring outfit, which was more refined than her casual combinations. The windblown hair was now held by a headband, the scarf was more comfortable and fastened by a clasp, and she had proper socks so she didn’t have to wear shoes barefoot.

Next were the pure white cards—

【Pure White·Item: Desert Eagle with Endless Bullets】

——Absorbs magic from the air to condense bullets within the gun’s magic array. Enemies hit by the gun will suffer severe shocks and be stunned, potentially leading to concussions, fractures, and internal bleeding, but at least they won’t die.

【Pure White·Blueprint: Rose Garden Construction Blueprint】

——You think you should have a rose garden, which will grow 95% ordinary roses and 5% rare roses.

This gun was also silver, feeling substantial in her hand, though there were no enemies to test it on.

Vivi looked down, seeing her reflection in the barrel.

“This gun is beautiful. I like it.”

The rose garden reminded her of the “Mad Gotham” rose she once used.

“If I grow these roses, can I sell them back to the gold coin shop?”

That rose had cost her 120,000 gold!

Next were the silver cards, which made Vivi quite excited—

【Silver·Item: Gift Bottle】

【Description: Can only affect soil. Use on the virtual map to “slightly” alter the land conditions within a 100-square-kilometer area centered on the bottle’s mark. However, you won’t know the direction of change until you use it.】

【Try it, it won’t get worse, will it?】

Gotham only had about 800 square kilometers. This was equivalent to changing an eighth of the city!

【Silver·Scene (One-time): Silent Long Night】

【Description: A pitch-black sky will cover the entire city. During these four hours, good children will fall into a peaceful sleep, while all who oppose you will be weakened. You can do as you please with them.】

【Sleep, sleep, enter the magical silent long night】

——Detected that the player’s average in-game sleep time is zero, so the item duration is set to the minimum, four hours.

Vivi: “…Can’t I be a workaholic?”

Wasn’t the point of playing the game to have fun? She never felt tired, so she didn’t sleep.

【Silver·Item (One-time): Took a Nap】

【Description: Set a time coordinate to revert time to 30 minutes before the coordinate】

【I took a nap, missed something, so I turned back time…】

It was a time-related item, even though it was one-time use, it was already very powerful.

With determination, she flipped the final and only gold card—

【Gold·Building: Someone’s Statue】

【Description: Choose a person’s image to erect an indestructible statue in the city center. People’s emotions towards the statue will accumulate power, radiating throughout the city, making the good luckier and the evil unluckier.】

【This power is small, invisible, but it exists and shines.】

An item affecting the city rather than herself, she liked this even more.

Summarizing this card draw, Vivi found it quite rewarding—

“I have new clothes, a horse, a Desert Eagle with endless bullets, endless balloons, a statue,” she said, “I also have a rose garden blueprint, a chance to reverse time, an opportunity to do whatever I want in the city, and a gift bottle to change 100 square kilometers of land.”

Oh, she forgot about the shimmering, flashy texture that came with a mystery buff.

The abundant rewards left her momentarily unsure of what to do first.

After a moment of contemplation, Vivi opened the map and placed the [Gift Bottle] in the center of the East District, which gradually covered the entire area in a green circle.

Tools are meant to be used. She had initially thought of placing it in the sparsely populated Robinson Park, but if the soil was transformed to be suitable for growing corn, would she have to clear the trees to plant corn instead? It was better to use it in the East District.

【The gift is transforming this area…】

A few seconds later, the virtual green mist on the map dissipated.

【Transformation complete. You have received a gift: the soil here is now very suitable for growing multicolored roses】

【Note: The growth factors of roses in the rose garden are unrelated to the soil quality】

“So, this means that while the soil here is now suitable for roses, it doesn’t mean I need to build the rose garden in the East District.” Vivi concluded.

This change wouldn’t immediately affect the structure of the East District, but in the long run, it was a good thing. If the East District could become a specialized area for rose cultivation, the multicolored roses could be exported to other cities, providing stable economic income for the residents. Becoming a flower farmer was certainly better than joining a gang—in theory, the best possible outcome.

Her next task was to make this theory a reality.

After using one of the ten-draw items, Vivi selected another item and placed it—

【Gold·Building: Batman’s Statue】

Without hesitation, she decisively set the statue’s image to Batman. Compared to her, a mayor of just one month, Batman could evoke more emotions, a rational decision she had considered.

——Besides, who would build a statue of themselves in their own city? How embarrassing!

Let Batman bear this embarrassment; after all, he had a mask.

The system showed that the placement was successful, and as expected of a gold item, there was no construction progress bar, no need to wake up construction workers. The building was placed instantly.

Vivi suddenly wanted to take a look!

For a month, the system’s settlements told her she hadn’t changed anything, but she knew the city had indeed changed. Watching from the map wasn’t as exciting as experiencing it firsthand.

She wanted to see her city—

Nothing to worry about, outside was stormy, but she had a horse and the best gun.

However, she couldn’t bring Mr. C. Mr. C had no skills, and Vivi knew his reputation wasn’t great. Protecting herself while dual-controlling was too difficult. She needed to investigate Mr. C’s image in others’ eyes and then decide what identity he should play.

The man’s body reassembled into the girl’s corpse.

——It looked as if he had been possessing this body and now left.

…

Tim felt that constantly watching the surveillance would eventually turn him into a pervert.

They had been monitoring Black Mask, locating his phone. When Black Mask’s “special nail cell” opened, Tim was the first to receive the alert. Surveillance around Blackgate Prison was cut off, but it didn’t matter. The nail cell could only be placed outdoors—

And Wayne had six satellites.

The satellite images captured “Vivi,” of course, just to track her, not to monitor the warden or anyone else.

The girl refused to meet, but she did release Black Mask as agreed—or even earlier—who was now locked in the deepest part of Blackgate, with neighbors like Deathstroke and Killer Croc, seemingly not doing well.

The footage showed Vivi’s tool breaking the invisible, indestructible barrier.

Then, the girl disappeared again, but her closeness to the warden caught Tim’s attention.

“I was thinking there might be more clues, so I sent the Batcam,” Tim sipped his coffee, “She was dancing with a stranger in the warden’s room?”

But the footage only captured silhouettes, which might not be real. He had the computer analyze the man’s figure, but with just a silhouette, the task was challenging, and he had little hope.

Tonight seemed restless.

Arkham showed signs of unrest again, with Batman there, leaving Robin to watch over other areas.

00:18:22

An alarm sounded in the Batcave, the monitor displayed an image, the large screen dominated by the scene.

Tim: “What’s this? A new villain messing with Batman?”

——He glanced away for just a second, and a twenty-meter-tall Batman statue appeared in the city center.

Frowning, Tim quickly donned Robin’s uniform, deciding to check it out himself.

After solving a drug case, Dick returned to Blüdhaven, still dealing with many follow-up issues there.

As Robin’s cape unfurled in the night sky.

…Vivi was on her way, riding her horse.
