Chapter 1482: Birds and Return (Twenty-Seven)

The smoke of incense slowly floated up, making the candlelight on the wall more hazy. There were barely detectable footprints on the heavy cashmere carpet, and the noise of the climax of the banquet came from outside the door.

Behind the screen were many cushions made of satin fabrics. The exquisite metal wine glasses originally placed on the table were all moved to the shelf behind. There was a rustling sound of writing in front of the table, and occasionally there was a barely detectable sigh.

Crisp footsteps came from outside the door, followed by the "creaking" sound of the heavy wooden door being pushed open, and a woman with dark nails placed her hand on the edge of the screen.

With a "crash", the screen was pushed open, and a surprised female voice sounded. A beautiful lady in a gorgeous red dress with black hair and green eyes stared blankly at Bruce's blue eyes who was raising his head from the table.

"Excuse me, ma'am, what's up with you?"

"Oh my god, aren't you Dr. Schiller's student? Why are you here? Didn't you go drink with your teacher?" The lady covered her mouth with her fingers, looking surprised.

"It's a bit noisy there. I just came up with an idea and I'm going to verify it now, so I found a place where no one is. Did I bother you, ma'am?" Bruce kept looking up at the lady while speaking, his eyes were very focused, so even if he looked up from below, he didn't seem to be flattering.

"Oh, no, I want to say sorry, it seems that I disturbed your research... You can call me Madam Shangdu." The lady smiled slightly and said, "They all call me that because I lived in Shangdu in the Yuan Dynasty."

"Hello, ma'am, I'm fine here, you don't have to worry, you can go back and enjoy your banquet." Bruce lowered his head and sorted out the stack of draft paper in his hand, staring at the pattern he drew, and frowned again.

But Madam Xanadu had no intention of leaving. She walked behind the screen, knelt down opposite Bruce, looked at his face carefully, and said, "Haven't you heard of me?"

Bruce looked up at her again, and then he found that whenever his eyes met the eyes of Madam Xanadu, he would instinctively freeze for a moment, so he asked curiously, "What's wrong, Madam?"

"Nothing, it's just... it's just that your eyes look a bit like an old friend of mine." Madam Xanadu smiled and said.

"My teacher once mentioned you to me, but he said it was not polite to comment on a lady behind her back, so I don't know you."

"Dr. Schiller is always like this." Mrs. Xanadu shook her head and said helplessly: "He always keeps a very polite distance from everyone. When my sister Vivian asked me about him last time, I couldn't even say three sentences."

Bruce adjusted his sitting posture from a relaxed sitting posture with his legs open to a standard kneeling posture. Mrs. Xanadu raised her eyebrows, showing a surprised expression, and said: "Are you Bruce Wayne? You are a little different from what is written in the newspaper."

"I don't have time to care about those things." Bruce set his eyes on the manuscript paper again.

He guessed that there must be many young wizards in the magic world who are addicted to magic and behave a little abnormally in the society of ordinary people. He planned to create such an image for himself, so he shrugged frivolously and said, "I don't have the time to chase tabloid reporters around the world and ask them to understand me."

Mrs. Shangdu laughed and said jokingly, "Then what's the matter with you and those beautiful models?"

"Personal hobby." Bruce curled his lips and said bluntly, "I do have many female companions. I love their beauty, they love my wealth, and we each have our own Take what you need. Who knows if the people who wrote these reports didn't feel a little jealous when they were typing? "

Mrs. Shangdu laughed even harder, and even laughed so hard that she fell backwards. She covered her mouth with one hand, with an oriental implicit beauty. Then she looked into Bruce's eyes and said, "Boys are always like this. They don't know the charm brought by immaturity and straightforwardness. They are like a sharp blade that kills people."

Bruce lowered his eyes motionlessly and turned his gaze back to the draft paper. His repeated actions finally attracted Mrs. Shangdu's eyes to the magic circle he drew on the paper.

Mrs. Shangdu originally thought he was copying, so she didn't look at it carefully but just glanced at it. But when her eyes passed the draft paper, she paused.

"What are you drawing?" Mrs. Shangdu narrowed her eyes slightly, staring at the slightly unfamiliar magic circle pattern on the draft paper and said: "Creating a new magic circle? Is this the result of your teacher?"

Bruce shook his head, as if a little depressed, and said: "No, this is the homework he left for me, madam, I'm not sure you want to hear those boring academic materials..."

"Tell me about it." Mrs. Shangdu rested her chin on her fingers, nodded very reservedly and said: "Maybe I can help you a little... Oh, if you don't know who I am, you must know who King Arthur is? The fairy Vivian who gave King Arthur the sword in the lake is my sister. "

Bruce's pupils shrank a little, and Mrs. Shangdu looked at his shocked expression with satisfaction.

"Then you must help me." Bruce immediately leaned forward, turned the draft paper upside down and placed it in front of Mrs. Shangdu, and said very sincerely: "I have to hand in my homework tomorrow morning. If I can't finish it, I'm dead."

Mrs. Shangdu laughed out loud, shook her head and said: "You are really brave to dare to be Dr. Schiller's student. Everyone in the circle knows that he has a bad temper."

"More than bad." Bruce deliberately muttered in a low voice, and then looked at Mrs. Shangdu with a look of help.

Mrs. Shangdu then cast her eyes on Bruce's draft paper. In the first thirty seconds, her expression was still relaxed. After a while, she frowned slightly. After about two minutes, her brows became more and more frowned.

"Bruce, can I call you this? Are you studying the multi-line parallel rune code of the Upta School?

"Oh my God, ma'am, you are the first person to see my topic, so, do you have any research on it? "Bruce immediately showed his eagerness as if he had seen a life-saving straw.

Madam Shangdu shook her head slightly, but nodded again. She sighed softly and said, "I have seen the descendants of Master Upta, but he is no longer studying such obscure knowledge. Boy, let me ask you one more question, why are you studying this?"

"It's not what I want to study." Bruce pursed his lips and said, "This is the topic selected by Professor Schiller, and I can only complete it."

"Well, it seems that he is deliberately making things difficult for you. Even in the magic world a hundred years ago, there were not many people studying this topic. You have to know that multi-threaded parallelism means that you have to be familiar with multiple secret language chains at the same time. As long as one goes wrong, there will definitely be problems when they are summarized later. "

"That's right, ma'am, so in your opinion, can my magic circle run smoothly? "

Mrs. Shangdu stared at the magic circle, tilted her head and said, "The first rune of the magic circle you drew is a double-line parallel. After connecting the functional rune, you connected the two runes to two double lines to make four. You repeated this process more than ten times. The whole magic circle has become so complicated that I can't understand it for a while."

Mrs. Shangdu drew the lines on the paper with her fingers and said, "It is not a good thing for the magic circle to be too complicated. There is a possibility of error in every link. If there are too many links, the probability of error will be greatly increased. This is also the reason for the decline of the Upta School."

Bruce sighed and said, "I don't have the ability to verify whether this magic circle can work, so I don't know what kind of evaluation Professor Schiller will give tomorrow morning. It would be great if I could test it in advance."

"Who did you contract with?" "Belair."

Mrs. Shangdu showed a helpless bitter smile. She looked into Bruce's eyes and said, "Didn't your teacher suggest that you change the contract object? Belair has been out of contact for a long time. "But that may cost more, so I have to get a good result first." Bruce pushed the draft paper forward again, stared at Mrs. Shangdu with his blue eyes and said, "Madam, can you help me verify the feasibility of this array?" "Yes, I can." Mrs. Shangdu nodded and said, "I owe Dr. Schiller a favor, and so does Master Andrew, but I have to ask first, what is your array used for?" "It's just a simple demon summoning array." Bruce nodded and said, "And it may not be able to run completely." "Okay, then do you want to try it with a miniature array, or directly draw a large array of the original scale?" Bruce pinched his chin and thought for a while, and finally said, "Although the effect of the large array is better, it would be a waste of your energy. Just draw a small one. "

Mrs. Shangdu smiled and said, "You underestimate the fairy tribe of Maya. We are different from humans. Our energy comes from the natural source. Moreover, the magic array for summoning demons compiled by a magic apprentice is not enough to affect my mana reserves."

"Thank you very much, ma'am." Bruce stood up, as if he couldn't wait to experiment.

Mrs. Shangdu shook her head, as if she was lamenting that the young man was impatient, but she still took Bruce downstairs. At this time, Master Andrew with white hair was still drinking, and Schiller was sitting next to him and chatting with him.

"Dr. Schiller, your apprentice belongs to me." Mrs. Shangdu smiled and waved to Schiller and said, "Don't worry, I won't eat him."

Schiller raised his eyebrows but still waved them away. Master Andrew with messy white hair and a mustache shouted over there, "Hey, young man, don't listen to her, the lake fairy will eat people! "

Mrs. Shangdu snorted coldly, then waved to Bruce and said, "Come with me, let's go to the back garden to conduct experiments. There are many good things in Andrew's warehouse. The ring you brought is very much to his liking, and he will not be stingy with you."

After that, she took Bruce into the back garden of Andrew's wizard tower, and then took Bruce to Andrew's warehouse to find a lot of materials for setting up magic circles.

"Let me do it, ma'am." Bruce took the materials from Madam Shangdu, and then began to draw a huge magic circle on the ground of the garden with an extremely smooth movement.

Bruce's hands were very steady, and he would only stop to think between the lines. Madam Shangdu was a little fascinated as she watched. She and Bruce stood together to discuss the role of these parallel and amplified runes, and modified them to be more perfect.

After the magic circle was drawn, Madam Shangdu flew up and looked down at Bruce and her labor results. It was an extremely complex and huge magic circle, containing many difficult and obscure ancient runes. Madam Shangdu could only understand a small part of them.

After landing, she sighed: "It is true that a good teacher produces a good student. I have never seen any young wizard with the same knowledge as you, or in other words, your ritual level is one of the best in the entire magic world."

"You are flattering, ma'am, let's get started."

In hell, there was also a lively banquet scene in Beelzebub's palace.

Countless gifts presented by demon generals piled up into a mountain, and the splashes of blood fountains fell on the road paved with bones. All kinds of demons sang and danced happily.

But Lord Beelzebub on the throne stared at the small figures in front of him with a very dissatisfied look. He snorted and said, "Batman received my invitation, but he didn't come himself, but sent you human cubs here. You simply don't take the monarch of hell seriously!"

Standing in front of him were the three Robins. Nightwing, Red Hood and Red Robin swallowed their saliva together.

The impact of facing the demon king directly is not ordinary. When dozens of eyes on Beelzebub's huge demon phantom are looking at them at the same time, the pressure is even greater.

"Batman can't come in person, but we can congratulate you on his behalf..." Nightwing stepped forward. "What can be more important than my celebration?!"

When Beelzebub's rumbling voice resounded in the palace, the Robins found that the surrounding demons looked at them with some unkindness.

Just as the demon generals gradually gathered around, Beelzebub on the throne suddenly froze for a moment and muttered: "Who?"

"Who is calling me? I don't have an agent?" Beelzebub said in a very puzzled tone, and then he said impatiently: "I have something to do, wait!"

Suddenly, Beelzebub's expression froze, and a black vortex suddenly appeared on the right side of his body. One corner of the huge figure covered with thick black mist seemed to be grabbed by something and began to tilt to one side.

Under the gaze of Robin and countless demon generals, Beelzebub was dragged away in a "whoosh", and then the entire palace of the demon king began to shake.

In Andrew's magic tower, Madam Shangdu was emitting green light all over her body. She put her hands on the magic circle and turned to ask for help to Master Andrew who came hurriedly, saying: "Andrew! Save me! My strength is not enough, but I can't let go. If this goes on, I will be drained!!!"

Andrew hurriedly took two steps forward and raised his staff. A strong light shot out from the top of the staff. In an instant, rich energy was poured into the magic circle. He wanted to destroy the runes and make the magic circle invalid, but the next second he was stuck there and couldn't move at all, falling into the same situation as Madam Shangdu.

With the injection of more and more energy, countless runes in parallel began to exert their power, 2 to 4, 4 to 8, 8 to 16, more than a dozen times of exponential growth and countless amplified runes in series, making the effect of this magic circle reach a terrifying level.

A huge vortex appeared on the top of the wizard tower, and the rich demonic power surged out, and the whole sky was dyed black. Just when the output value of the magic circle reached the maximum value, a huge demon with more than a dozen eyes fell down with a "bang", followed by the demon generals who were like dumplings.

The last few Robins who fell down stood up staggeringly, holding their heads, looking at a familiar figure, and walked towards the biggest demon.

As soon as Beelzebub opened his dozens of eyes, he stared at Batman. Then, he heard Batman say:

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty Beelzebub, I really don't have time to attend your daughter's wedding, so I can only let you come here."

"Also, on this happy day, are you interested in choosing a pope in the world to share your worries?"
