--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Throughout The Court of Owls' existence there has always been The Talons, a loyal group of lethal assassins that serve The Court. They are sent out when The Court of Owls feels that their existence or goals are being threatened. The Talons are first mentioned in the old Gotham City nursery rhyme story about The Court of Owls; in this old story a figure is simply known as Talon. There have been many different Talons throughout the existence of The Court of Owls, but it is not known exactly who these assassins are- only that they are known by one name: The Talon.

Swish swish swish... Breaking through the air, the confrontation was broken, and the second Talon quickly spilled a large number of ninja darts, testing Jude's position by feeling.

As a murder weapon cultivated by the Court of Owls, they all undergo rigorous and complex training, including distinguishing positions by listening to voices and perceiving murderous intent. Ninja darts can cover Jude's location, forcing him to move and avoid. However, facing Jude, a high-IQ opponent, the moment the opponent shot, he had already understood the intention of Talon.

Jude bowed slightly and turned on the gravity shoe adsorption switch. He immediately retreated seven or eight meters away without a slight effort and, after landing, made no sound. The darts of the Talon slid in a circle, and not hearing any movement, Talon felt uneasy. He threw the hook grabbed the Wrangler's smashed car door, and pulled it off.

"You must be around somewhere come out!" he roared, slamming the car door indiscriminately, creating potholes in the ground. After a while, the car door was smashed, and there was still no movement. Talon thought, "Is he not by my side?" and reminded his companions loudly: "Be careful; Jude Herbert is going toward you and he will be invisible."

But as soon as the voice fell, he felt a chill at the back of his head. When he shook the door of the car, Jude had come quietly behind him.

"I heard that Talons are afraid of cold, right?" Jude said as the wrist blade stabbed back sharply, but the freezing ray was faster. Under the low temperature approaching absolute zero, the Talons had no resistance and instantly turned into an ice sculpture.

On the other side, there was a roar from the flame whirlwind, and the whirlwind came, hitting Bridgit with a punch in the abdomen, making her vomit blood and fly backward. The scorched Talon rushed towards her, jumped up in the air, and stomped heavily on her arms, accompanied by the sound of cracking bones.

Not satisfied with stepping on her arms, the Talon kicked her chin again. Bridget's small figure flew several meters, and the former's festering body had begun to dig out new granulation. Finding that Bridget hadn't fainted, the Talon murmured, "The body that has been modified is different." After speaking, he jumped up again, targeting Bridget's legs, rendering her incapable of posing a threat.

Just as the Talon was about to break Bridget's legs, a pair of invisible hands pulled her, and the original position had become a piece of ice. It was too late for Talon to change his actions. His feet fell on the ice, and he fell backward. Before he could react, another freezing ray hit him, and the whole person instantly turned into an impending ice sculpture.

Jude's eyes turned to Ivy's side. Due to the target adopted measures , the plant methods failed one after another. The Talon's wrist blade had already stabbed Ivy's arms and knocked her away. He looked back at his companions and found that both of them had become ice sculptures. Feeling that things were not right, he hurried to Ivy's side, planning to take her away first and hoping that he could catch at least one of then.
