Chapter 1747 S: The Great Event of Apocalypse (XIV)
Schiller looked up from the thick pile of student papers, looked at Roy in front of him and said, "Do you want to build a portal?"
"I think this is the best way to solve the current traffic problem in Gotham." Roy said with a hint of despair in his tone: "In other words, there is no other way to alleviate Gotham's traffic problems except building portals. Traffic jam situation.”
Schiller lowered his head again and continued to correct his homework, and said: "Then it's useless for you to come to me. I neither know the best about transportation nor the best about portals."
"But you are the one who can't stand traffic jams."
Very good, a sure kill.
About ten minutes later, professors from Gotham University and Gotham Academy of Magic gathered together. The large table in the conference room was moved and turned into a circle of sofas. Mayor Roy stood at the front and said: "This is It is very sad news that professionals from Gotham University and the city government have found after research that traditional traffic improvement measures are not suitable for this city, and we may have to take some extreme measures."
Strange shook his head and said: "Let's not talk about whether it is a bit ridiculous to use green light energy to improve urban traffic. I heard Hal, the Green Lantern, say that this is not an energy that everyone can use. If you use To form a purely magical creation, such as the earth's magic defense network, it can have excellent defensive performance, but if it is intended for civilian use, how can it ensure its stability? "
"Gothamites have never looked for stability."
"But if it breaks down every few days, wouldn't it be inefficient enough?" Strange pointed out: "Besides, the only one who can use this energy flexibly is Green Lantern. You expect Hal Jordan to maintain an entire building by himself?" The city’s transportation network?”
Roy patted the podium hard and said: "This is the purpose of calling everyone here. We want to use unconventional means to solve the problem, but what we need now is a practical solution!"
Schiller turned to look at Bruce. He knew that Bruce would not be idle after the meeting that day. Damn it if he didn't encourage Roy.
Bruce’s behavioral motivations can be easily deduced. 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 improvement of the living environment.
The renovation of the living environment can be divided into areas and carried out step by step in stages. The renovation of the East District will hardly affect the South District, and the demolition of buildings in the West District will not be heard in the North District.
However, the comprehensive transformation of the transportation network affects the whole body. If a road in one place is to be renovated, the traffic flow will inevitably merge into another road. Once this road is completely blocked, all 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 board, you must look back to see the direction of movement of several boards. The complexity of Gotham's transportation network is equivalent to several boards. Huarong said that only Bruce's brain could bear such a calculation amount.
Obviously, Bruce does not intend to exhaust himself to death now, and he knows very well that if he takes this job, he will definitely have to provide more than just wisdom. Wayne Group is really unable to take over the entire process of transforming the living conditions of the city's residents. The world's richest man doesn't have that much money to take on the important task of transport reform.
Bruce has understood that it is better to embarrass others than to exhaust himself to death. If he wants to take both paths at the same time, one of them has to be clever.
Sure enough, after Evans finished speaking, Bruce stood up and said: "I have an idea. Last night I tested the metal in Gotham overnight..."
Bruce has long known that the mastermind behind Gotham is the Court of Owls, and watching the situation in other universes has also confirmed this. Although the Court of Owls in this universe has been wiped out by Lucifer, Gotham has not changed for the better, not even a little bit. None, which means Lucifer didn't want to save Gotham, he just killed the owl.
After the existence of this level modifies the file, all other codes will adapt. After the owl is gone, nothing has changed. This shows that the influence originally caused by the owl has been replaced by someone else. There have been changes in historical details, but it is just The man behind the scenes changed his name.
But Bruce now has no time to explore who was originally blamed for the good deeds done by the owl. As long as the phenomenon still exists, it means that it can be exploited.
The solid darkness mixed into Gotham metal still exists, which means it must have its source and can still be exploited.
Bruce briefly explained this point of view to everyone present. Although it sounds very magical, after all, the test results cannot be faked. The professors at Gotham University were amazed after seeing the information provided by Bruce, but who can be a professor here? People have amazing adaptability, and they immediately began to study the properties of special metals mixed into alloys.
Of course, they also obtained results similar to those of Marvel's experts. This so-called solid darkness should be a kind of condensed energy that is mixed into metal as a material to provide a dark radiation that can envelope the entire city.
The difference is that the universe where Schiller lives has a more professional team. After research by ordinary people's experts and professors, they can give more professional answers with their dark genius inspiration.
Professor Zhu Nian made the following judgment on this:
"Among the corpses of Gothamites that I dissected, some individuals had an abnormal brain structure. It can be understood that they were unable to withstand the changes brought about by the darkness and did not develop wisdom, but they It got even crazier, so they went to the autopsy table."

"The distribution of the probability of occurrence of this type of people does not show an increasing trend with age, which means that the number of mutation failures in the previous generation is almost the same as the number of mutation failures in this generation."
"This proves that this dark radiation is not a reliable mutation method that has been manually screened. It is very simple and crude. It proves that the people who arranged this dark radiation do not have much professional knowledge and do not know how to iteratively update their technical means. There has been no progress for many years.”
"If the technology is particularly primitive, it just proves the power of energy that has not been refined and transformed many times. Or it may be that the energy source is very close and easy to obtain, so it does not need to be used very efficiently, but it can still produce good output. results.”
"Water circulation is the key." Scarecrow Jonathan Crane said: "The darkness in Gotham people's hearts that I mixed with special chemical reagents in the rain should come from the dark radiation brought by metal. One of these types of radiation The manifestation is the water cycle, and the best way to affect the water cycle is to affect groundwater.”
Pamela put her hands on the experimental table, looked 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 take advantage of it. It may have received inspiration from it, so it did these things.”
"Why do you say that?" Schiller asked, standing next to her.
"An intuition." Pamela sighed softly, then she turned to look at Schiller and said: "Professor, you haven't told us the origin of the dark god named Barbatos? "
"Does this have anything to do with it?"
"I think so."
Schiller briefly told the story of Barbatos to everyone present. No one questioned the source of the information, and they didn't care at all, said Lex, who sat with his legs crossed on a chair nearby.
"It is impossible for the dog next to the World Forger to develop a rebellious heart just a second before it ate its master. As far as I know, such a vicious dog must have planned it for a long time, perhaps long before he ate his master. The conspiracy has already begun.”
Bruce put one hand on the experimental table and stood on the other side and speculated: "I guess, since I don't know when, some other materials have been added to the universe cast by the world caster."
Pamela turned to him and said, "Gotham wasn't supposed to exist, was it?"
She looked back at the map and said: "If, as the story goes, the World Forger puts the good universes on the plate and throws away the bad ones, then why is Gotham's universe put on the plate? This It’s the most obvious flaw in a perfectly finished product.”
"Unless this flaw is hidden under the glaze." Bruce sighed softly and said: "In the process of the world forger casting the world, adding a little bit of the inconspicuous source of darkness is buried on the east coast. Somewhere underground, and then as the world is released into the universe, humans will eventually discover these darknesses as they begin to explore what exists beneath the surface.”
"The people who first discovered the darkness became believers." Lex went on to add: "They continued to expand the darkness, extracted it and poured it into the city under construction, just like the impurities buried in the matrix of porcelain gradually melted into the glaze. When it appears on the surface, the city becomes a small, imperceptible crack in the seamless porcelain.”
"One day, he will knock out all these cracks at the same time, smash all the porcelain, and let everything become his food and be swallowed by him."
The room was quiet for a few seconds, then a burst of applause came, and everyone turned to look at Schiller who was applauding.
Schiller stopped what he was doing to prevent them from interrupting their discussion, but he still thought in his mind that the plot drawn up in the comics was different from the real world. In the real world, everything must have a reasonable reason and cannot be conjured out of thin air. Setting, even if there are geniuses who set up this world, they will definitely find a way to get to the bottom of it, and they must ask one, two, three.
The so-called prophets who are familiar with the plot can only know the settings, which shows the great wisdom of people who can infer the real and reasonable reasons through clues even if they do not know the settings.
The information gap from the time travelers did not make Schiller feel superior, but the wisdom of these geniuses gave him the satisfaction of witnessing miracles time and time again.
"But he is not without weaknesses." Lex showed a sneer, and he crossed his arms and said: "In order to complete his plan to break the rift one day, he naturally has to find a way to maintain the existence of the rift, or provide strength to make the rift get bigger. The 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 now Wayne is the largest city builder, why can others use Wayne no?"
Bruce smiled, and then took out a test tube from behind. In an instant, everyone's eyes focused on his hand, because the test tube contained rich darkness that was constantly flowing.
"He didn't say I couldn't do it. In fact, his attitude towards budget approval was much more generous than I imagined."
