Chapter 1746 S Apocalypse Event (XIV)

Schiller looked up from the thick student paper assignments, looked at Roy in front of him and said, "You want to build a portal?"

"I think this is the best way to solve Gotham's current traffic problems." Roy's tone was a little desperate, and he said, "In other words, there is no other way to alleviate Gotham's traffic jams except building portals."

Schiller lowered his head again to continue correcting homework, and said, "Then it's useless for you to come to me. I am neither the most knowledgeable about traffic nor the most knowledgeable about portals."

"But you can't stand traffic jams the most."

Very good, a killer move.

About ten minutes later, professors from Gotham University and Gotham School of Magic gathered together. The large table in the conference room was moved away and turned into a circle of sofas. Mayor Roy stood in front and said, "This is very sad news. After research, professionals from Gotham University and the city government found that traditional traffic improvement measures are not suitable for this city. I'm afraid we must take some extreme measures."

Strange shook his head and said, "Let's not talk about whether it's a bit ridiculous to use green light energy to improve urban traffic. I heard from the Green Lantern Hal that this is not an energy that anyone can use. If it is used to form pure magic creations, such as the Earth Magic Defense Network, then it can have excellent defense performance, but if ... If you want to use it for civilian use, how can you ensure its stability? "

"People in Gotham never pursue stability."

"But if it breaks down every few days, isn't it still inefficient?" Strange pointed out: "Besides, only Green Lantern can use this energy flexibly. Do you expect Hal Jordan to maintain the transportation network of an entire city alone?"

Roy patted the podium hard and said, "This is the purpose of my gathering everyone here. We want to solve the problem with unconventional means, but what we need now is a practical solution!"

Schiller turned his head and looked at Bruce. He knew that Bruce must have been busy after the meeting that day. It would be a pity if he didn't encourage Roy.

Bruce's motives are easy to infer. The urban transportation network is a big problem, almost second only to the improvement of the living environment of urban residents. From a certain perspective, the transformation of the transportation network is more troublesome than the transformation of the living environment.

The transformation of the living environment can be done bit by bit in stages and in different areas. The transformation of the East District hardly affects the South District, and the demolition of the West District will not be heard in the North District.

But the overall transformation of the traffic network is a matter of ripples. If a road in one place is to be transformed, the traffic will inevitably merge into another road. Once this road is completely blocked, all the surrounding traffic will be paralyzed.

This is not something that can be tolerated. The logic is a bit like Huarong Road. When you want to move a piece of wood, you must see the direction of movement of several pieces of wood behind. The complexity of Gotham's traffic network is equivalent to hundreds of billions of Huarong Roads. Probably only Bruce's brain can bear such a large amount of calculations.

Obviously, Bruce does not intend to tire himself to death now, and he knows very well that if he takes this job, he must provide more than just wisdom. The Wayne Group is really unable to take over the task of traffic transformation while taking over the transformation of the living conditions of the entire city residents. The world's richest man does not have that much money.

Bruce has realized that it is better to embarrass others than to tire himself to death. If he wants to take these two roads at the same time, one of them has to be a trick.

Sure enough, after Evans finished speaking, Bruce stood up and said, "I have an idea. I tested the metal in Gotham overnight last night..."

Bruce has long known that the mastermind behind Gotham is the Court of Owls. Watching the situation in other universes also confirmed this. Although the Court of Owls in this universe has been erased by Lucifer, Gotham has not become better because of this, and there is not even a little change. This shows that Lucifer did not want to save Gotham, he just got rid of the owls.

After the existence of this level modifies the file, all other codes will adapt. After the owls are gone, nothing has changed. This means that the impact that was originally supposed to be caused by the owls has been replaced by someone else. There have been changes in historical details, but it is just that the mastermind behind the scenes has changed his name.

But Bruce has no time to explore who was originally blamed for the good deeds of the owls. As long as the phenomenon still exists, it means that it can be used.

The solid darkness mixed into the metal of Gotham still exists, which means that it must have its source, and it can still be used.

Bruce simply explained this point of view to everyone present. Although it sounds very magical, the test results cannot be faked after all. After reading the information provided by Bruce, the professors of Gotham University were amazed. However, those who can be professors here have amazing adaptability. They immediately began to study the properties of the special metals mixed in the alloy.

Of course, they also got similar results to Marvel experts. This so-called solid darkness should be a kind of condensed energy, which is mixed into the metal as a material to provide a dark radiation that can cover the whole city.

The difference is that the universe where Schiller is located has a more professional team. After the experts and professors of ordinary people have studied it, they can give a more professional answer with their dark genius inspiration.

Professor Pig Face made the following judgment:

"Among the bodies of Gotham people I dissected, some individuals had an abnormal structure in their brains. It can be understood that they failed to withstand the changes brought by the darkness. They did not develop wisdom, but became more crazy, so they went to the dissection table."

"The distribution of the probability of such people does not show an increasing trend with age, which means that the number of mutation failures in the previous generation and this generation is almost the same."

"This proves that this dark radiation is not a reliable mutation method that has been artificially screened. It is very superficial and crude, proving that the people who arranged this dark radiation do not have much professional knowledge and do not know how to update their technical means. Over the years, There is no progress. "

"If the technology is particularly primitive, it just proves the power of energy that has not been refined and transformed many times, or it is possible that the energy source is very close and easy to obtain, so it does not need to be used very efficiently, and it can still produce good results. "

"The water cycle is the key. "Scarecrow Jonathan Klein said: "The darkness in the hearts of Gotham people that I mixed special chemical reagents into the rainwater should come from the dark radiation brought by metals. One of the manifestations of this radiation is the water cycle, and if you want to affect the water cycle, the best way is to affect the groundwater. "

Pamela put her hands on the experimental table, looking at a huge map of Gotham and said.

"There is no doubt that the source must be underground, and I think that the source of the dark power is not placed by anyone. It is more like a natural phenomenon that exists somewhere underground in Gotham, and some people use it. Maybe they are hearing revelations from it, so they do these things. "

"Why do you say that?" Schiller, who was standing beside her, asked.

"An intuition." Pamela sighed softly, then she turned to Schiller and said, "Professor, you haven't told us where the dark god named Barbatos came from?"

"Is it related to this?"

"I think so."

Schiller briefly told everyone present the story of Barbatos. No one questioned the source of the information, and they didn't care at all, said Lex, who was sitting on a chair with his legs crossed.

"It is impossible for the dog of the World Forger to rebel just before eating its master. As far as I know, such a vicious dog must have planned for a long time, and perhaps the conspiracy had already begun long before he devoured his master."

Bruce, with one hand on the experimental table, stood on the other side and speculated: "I guess, from some unknown time, some other materials were added to the universe forged by the World Forger."

Pamela turned her head and looked at him and said, "Gotham shouldn't exist, right?"

She looked back at the map and said, "If, as the story says, the World Forger will put the good universes on the plate and throw away the bad ones, then why is the universe of Gotham put on the plate? This is a glaring flaw in a perfect finished product."

"Unless this flaw is hidden under the glaze." Bruce sighed softly and said: "When the world forgers forged the world, they added a little bit of inconspicuous source of darkness to it, buried somewhere underground on the east coast. Then when the world was placed in the universe, humans began to explore the existence under the surface of the earth, and finally discovered this darkness."

"The people who first discovered the darkness became believers." Lex added: "They continued to expand this darkness, extracted it and poured it into the city under construction, just like the impurities buried in the body of porcelain gradually appeared on the glaze, and the city became a small crack that was not easy to detect on the whole porcelain."

"One day, he will knock off these cracks at the same time, and then smash all the porcelain, making everything his food and swallowing it into his stomach."

The room was silent for a few seconds, and then a burst of applause came, and everyone turned to look at Schiller who was applauding.

Schiller stopped what he was doing to avoid interrupting their discussion, but he was still thinking in his heart that the plots drawn up in comics are different from the real world after all. In the real world, everything must have a reasonable reason, and settings cannot be created out of thin air. Even if there are settings, the geniuses in this world will definitely find a way to get to the bottom of it and ask for the truth.

The so-called foresighted people who are familiar with the plot can only know the settings, so it seems that even if they don’t know the settings, they can infer the real reasonable reasons through clues. The wisdom of those who can infer the real reasonable reasons through clues is great.

The information gap from the time traveler does not make Schiller feel superior, but the wisdom of these geniuses has given him the satisfaction of witnessing miracles again and again.

"But he is not without weaknesses." Lex sneered, and he crossed his arms and said, "In order to complete his plan to break the crack one day, he naturally has to find a way to maintain the existence of the crack, or provide power to make the crack bigger and bigger."

"Where does the power come from? There must be a channel, right?" Pamela narrowed her eyes and said, "City builders can use dark energy, so Wayne is now the biggest city builder. Why can others use Wayne but not?"

Bruce smiled, then took out a test tube from behind. Instantly, everyone's eyes were focused on his hand, because the test tube contained a continuous flow of dense darkness.

"He didn't say I couldn't do it. In fact, his attitude towards approving the budget was much more generous than I thought."
