Chapter 1725 Bruce Wayne and the Prisoner of the Batcave (VIII)

Chapter 1699 Bruce Wayne and the Prisoner of the Batcave (VIII)

Gotham was destroyed.

If it were a realistic work, this would be a very thrilling beginning. Unfortunately, in the world of superheroes, cities are being destroyed every minute and every second.

But even so, the city of Gotham can still bloom in the vulgarity, or it can be said that it blooms in death, because even in the world of superheroes, almost no city is destroyed because of a large-scale fight among citizens.

The situation has evolved to this point, which is somewhat cruel, but because of the special situation in Gotham, it is difficult to say that it is not what the people of Gotham deserve. At least those who are still here now are 100% deserving.

Unlike wars between countries and regions, gangs will not bomb transportation hubs first when fighting, nor will they discredit transportation hubs or simply blow up roads.

On the one hand, gangs rarely have such strategic vision. Most of the gangs of this generation are also fighting this kind of war for the first time. They are not professional military strategists. Most of them fight one step at a time, immersed in grabbing territory and being robbed, and have no time to care about transportation hubs.

On the one hand, it is meaningless for them to blow up these facilities, because the enemy is not outside, no one will transport troops from outside, and most of the supplies are transported by sea. Seizing the dock is the advantage, and land transportation is not that important.

Therefore, most of the outsiders and locals who are afraid of death who are stranded in Gotham carried the train and ran away overnight when the war just started. Now those who are left are outright war maniacs. Even if you say that they deserve it to be blown up, it can't be called indifferent and ruthless.

When Harley Quinn took Harley to find Poison Ivy, everyone sitting in the SHIELD office saw the current situation of the city through her eyes. From the initial swearing and sighing to the silence later, the atmosphere in the room basically hovered between "Did I drink too much last night and I should have drunk more last night."

"There is no bombing." Magneto said, "Cities bombed by bombers are not like this."

Nick certainly knew this, so he explained to the younger children, "The shape of the building debris caused by the bombs of bombers falling from the sky is completely different from that caused by ground explosives. When the explosive equivalent is the same, the bomber covers a wider area, but the ground explosives cause greater damage."

"If they used bombs, grenades or rocket launchers to make the city look like this, how many did they use?"

Stark stood next to Jarvis with his hands on his hips and asked on the side of the screen with some confusion, and his steps paused. , but still walked to the screen, pointed to the upper half of a building above and said: "Look at the burn marks on the steel bars here, it doesn't look like a known bomb can do it."

"You can't do it either?"

"I haven't studied this kind of thing." Stark shook his head slightly and said: "I haven't been an arms dealer for a long time. Besides, if I invent a bomb that can easily melt the steel bars of building standards, I will be condemned by the humanitarianism of the international public opinion field, and Pepper will yell at me for a whole week, "If you can't work, don't make trouble!!!" "

"But ordinary bombs can also blow down buildings, right?" Pietro, who was sitting cross-legged on the carpet, raised his head and asked.

Stark nodded and said: "So I feel confused. If a bomb is developed just to make the building it destroys collapse in another way, or even not collapse faster, then what's the point?"

Soon, Stark and everyone in the room knew what the meaning was. The answer is the arms race.

As we all know, the gang's firepower was initially imported from Eastern Europe by the two newly appointed arms dealers, Harley Quinn and Harley. But the people of Gotham have nothing but a strong spirit of self-reliance. They think it is too unreliable to rely on imports, so they plan to produce it themselves.

However, military production lines are different from ordinary industrial production lines. Even though Gotham is an important industrial city, it is more inclined to the chemical industry and lacks a large part of the production lines and raw materials needed for military production.

Harley Quinn and Harley are really powerful. They really got some of the inheritance that the prodigals got during the disintegration of the Soviet Union, but most of them are not very successful, and those that are successful cannot be transported in.

Faced with scattered machines and workshop parts that do not even have control assemblies, the amazing wisdom and great courage of the people of Gotham allowed them to create miracles again, mainly relying on the latter.

When facing such things, the people of Gotham always have a mysterious confidence, that is, although I don't understand the principle, the advantage must be mine. Although this thing can't even move, I can transform it with a screwdriver and a screwdriver so that it can move the earth away with a single step on the accelerator.

The strange thing is that although 99% of the experimental machines were destroyed and people died, there were still a few geniuses like Jason who pried the tire of the Batmobile with his bare hands among the tens of millions of people in Gotham. After several attempts, they really succeeded.

But how could the crazy little brains of Gotham people infected by rain be satisfied with ordinary munitions? Although they knew neither magic nor science, they just thought it was cool to knock the bomb to plus sixteen and then enchant the firestorm, so they did it.

Not all of their surprise inventions have practical value, just like the bomb that Stark discovered that seems to have a special burning effect on metal, which does not improve the efficiency of destroying buildings, but the arms race in Gotham is to see who is cooler.

When a gangster starts to roll up the military industry, the other ninety-nine have to keep up with his pace, because in Gotham, you can live but not die.

How much territory you have robbed, how much money you have earned, and how many people you have under your command are just the items that the early gangs compete with each other. In the end, the gangs compete with fashion value.

You have to admit that the image of the godfather who wears a black suit, black leather shoes, and a poppy on his chest, who always says "I will give you a condition you can't refuse" when he sees people, has reversed the global view of the mafia to some extent, and completely distinguished them from those street thugs.

In fact, the mafia is not so beautiful at all, but as long as the fashion value is piled up enough, it is difficult to change the stereotype once it is formed.

Therefore, after the initial chaotic period and reaching a strange balance, many gangs entered the era of rolling technology and rolling image. Although all this developed too quickly, it was not completely without reason.

First of all, the two top war profiteers in this city were once Batman and once Joker. After they split into two gangs, the adjective "once" also had to be questioned.

Batman and Joker always compete in all aspects. They soon got tired of the ordinary daily life of you fighting me and I fighting you, and entered the field they are most familiar with - a comprehensive competition in all fields known to mankind, with a kind of beauty that does not care about anyone's life or death.

And as mentioned in the Gotham Law, this ghost place will sooner or later roll into trouble.

"What is that?"

Stark in front of the screen keenly captured a floating object on the skyline, so Wanda asked Harley in her heart, but Harley had just returned and could not figure out the current situation, so she opened her mouth and asked Harley.

Harley covered her eyes with her hands and said, "Oh, that, I heard it's the base of the famous Neville family."

"Why is it flying in the sky?"

"Maybe it feels unsafe on the ground."

"I mean, how does it fly in the sky?!" Wanda repeated in Harley's mind. This time Harley didn't ask Harley, but asked back with some confusion: "What do you mean how does it fly in the sky? It will naturally fly in the sky when it leaves the ground."

"Ask her about the anti-gravity system." Stark said.

"Does this air fortress use an anti-gravity system? Is this a special technology developed in your universe?" Wanda turned her head and glanced at Stark, probably to confirm whether there was anything wrong with her asking this question.

Stark knew Batman's origins, and he also knew that this might be the universe where Batman was, but when dealing with Batman, Stark knew that the technology level in the civilian field of his universe was behind that of this universe, which was about the level of this universe a few years ago, that is, when there was no air transportation system and no solar system development plan.

What about the sky fortress that this gangster family took out? It can't be that they became enlightened overnight, right?

"I don't know about this, but I know someone from that gangster family. How about I call you and ask?"

Harry said, enduring a headache. She felt that the voice in her head was quite compatible with her. Maybe one day when she goes to this universe again, the other party can help her, so she is also happy to help the other party.

Harley borrowed a cell phone from Harley Quinn, dialed a few numbers on it, picked up the phone and asked: "Hello, is this Jason? Uh, are you the big one or the small one? I can't hear your voice clearly..."

"Oh, I see, you are not the one from my universe, yes, I am Harley, I called mainly to ask about the, uh, air base you made, what's going on?"

"What? There are too many monsters on the ground? What happened during the time I was away... Well, it's like this, a friend wants me to ask some technical questions, anti-gravity system or something."

"Oh, it's the system used in the Batfighter, right? Well, you made some modifications, Tim drew the design, I didn't expect him to have this ability, yes, yes, I know you did it, you are awesome, okay?"

Stark stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Wanda's eyes, lowered his voice and said: "Ask her how the material problem was solved, especially in terms of metal."

Wanda closed her eyes and began to ask questions attentively. After a while, she opened her eyes with some confusion and said.

"He said they were using metal from Gotham's buildings."
