Chapter 1433: Is This Batman's Life? (Medium)
Early the next morning, Bruce was thrown out of Wayne Manor with his luggage, Thomas threw it himself, so that Alfred didn't stop it, fortunately, Thomas was not too ruthless, he rolled down the window after getting in the car, looked at Bruce standing on the side of the road and said.
"Your mother also has an old house on Briss Street, where she prepared to get married, and don't come back until Aisha goes to elementary school! Spend $1.5 billion in a month...... My heart aches when I see you! ”
After saying that, the windows were rolled up, and the car disappeared at the end of the street, and Bruce was still immersed in Thomas's last sentence, and he muttered to himself as if he was stupid: "Spend 1.5 billion dollars a month......
Bruce glanced at the bag of luggage beside him, and with a look of disgust, he walked away and came across the road, stopping a taxi to go to the Batcave again.
When the taxi arrived at its destination, Bruce looked at the desolate scene around him, his face gradually turned cold, and he stared at the rearview mirror with his eyes, but after a while, as if he remembered something, he still took out the only cash he had left and paid the fare.
Before coming to the real gate of the Bat Cave, Bruce said the code again, and this time the door finally opened, and the Bat Cave was full of equipment and weapons, and Bruce impatiently walked in.
Bruce touched the batsuit one by one, and then walked to the front and picked up a set of parts from the bat suit to put on.
When he took off all his heavy coat and began to put the batsuit on his body, he realized that the clothes were the wrong size.
The size of this bat suit is too big, and it is not the kind of fat and thin big, obviously this bat suit should be customized for people who are taller than him, the leg armor cannot be buttoned to the correct position at all, and if it is too high, Le's knees cannot move freely.
Fortunately, there is more than one bat suit here, and Bruce chose a suit that looks more compact, and when he wears it up, he finds that this suit is too thin, and he has to lose at least twenty kilograms to be able to wear it.
Bruce looked at the row of batsuits in front of him and was silent, then he looked at the batmangs in the cabinet, the batrangs were fine, they were the right size, the only problem was that the thing itself was not very suitable for use as weapons.
The Batrang doesn't have any precision guidance on it, which means that Batman is using sheer skill to throw this unaerodynamic thing with almost 100% accuracy.
Bruce picked up a batarang, squeezed it in his hand, and tried to throw it out with his wrist, but before he could get rid of it, there was a "swish" sound, and a cut was made under the tiger's mouth.
He cursed under his breath, tossed the blood-stained batarang, and turned to look at the firearm hanging on the wall.
There were a lot of oddly shaped guns in the weapons cabinet, which looked like they had just been dug out of an alien's grave, and Bruce opened the weapons cabinet, took out one of them, and found that they were the same as the batmang, and the guns were fine, but they were completely unergonomic.
It is impossible for a normal human with only two hands to press more than sixty buttons on the gun at the same time while holding the gun steady and holding one hand on the trigger.
Throwing the gun aside, Bruce went back to look at the weird big machines, which were also good, with brand new buttons and neat parts, but the problem was that none of them could be turned on.
Each machine in the Batcave has an average of more than two hundred buttons, none of which has its responsibilities written on it, a machine has dozens of different sockets, countless wires on the ground, countless energy hubs on the walls, and a variety of switches next to all the interfaces and hubs.
This is not the crown jewel of human industrial civilization, but a corner abandoned by the development of modern machinery and equipment.
Today, when all modern industrial equipment is as simple and intelligent as possible, Batman resolutely chose a completely opposite development route, which can be called the primitive batpunk industrial style that retains the natural style and harmonious coexistence between man and the environment.
There were still many rooms in the Bat Cave, and Bruce pushed the doors one by one to see, but there was nothing inside, and he continued to go deeper without believing in evil, and finally saw the huge Bat Fighter.
At this moment, Bruce suddenly heard movement at the door of the Bat Cave, he turned back vigilantly, but saw Diana walking in, after seeing Bruce, Diana sighed and said: "I'm sorry, when your father was angry, Clark and I left first, I'm worried that he will scold us together, it's very possible, he doesn't seem to be in a good mood." ”
"I agreed with Clarke, you go to work with me during the day today, and help him take photos at night, but the news is a day late, and he will definitely be scolded by the boss."
"You're just right here." Diana flew up as she spoke, and in Bruce's shocked gaze, she flew into the Batfighter, tilted her head at Bruce and said, "Get on the plane, I'll take you to the base, there's still a lot of work waiting for us." ”
Bruce just wanted to refuse, a burst of light covered the bat fighter, his eyes widened slightly, and after a pause, he stepped into the fighter plane and sat in the pilot's seat.
"Fasten your seatbelt, you don't have to operate, I'll take you flying."
About half an hour later, Diana walked into the base with a spitting Bruce, and Bruce saw the blue earth floating outside the window of the base in a trance.
"Where is this?" Bruce asked breathlessly, feeling his brain be stupefied by Diana's violent driving skills.
"Base." Diana spread her hands and said: "The outpost where we set up the protective shield for the Earth is also your scientific research station, and Hal has already helped you move the equipment for those experimental projects that you said is inconvenient to carry out on the Earth, but you have to help us complete the promised work first." ”
Bruce leaned against the wall and coughed vigorously twice, he took two deep breaths, and followed Diana to the lab, where Diana brought a large stack of materials and placed them in front of him.
When Bruce's eyes were fixed on the information, and after a second, he couldn't help but shout, "What is this?!!! ”
"The blueprint of the Earth Shield." Diana propped her head and fiddled with the computer, and said without looking back: "Hal has almost finished the first part, you hurry up and finish the second part, and we can start construction." ”
"Why ......" Bruce was a little inarticulate as if his tongue had been burned, but he tried to suppress the excitement in his tone and said, "I mean, I still don't understand the ...... of this project"
"Of course you don't understand, you're too heavy on Schiller's filter." Diana still didn't look back, and said as she typed, "We have to get a shield for the Earth to protect our universe." ”
"Shielding the Earth to protect the universe?"
"Otherwise, can it still be to protect the earth?" Diana was still typing cracklingly, and said: "Of course, in a sense, protecting the earth is also protecting the universe, and a protective shield can solve these two problems, don't ask, hurry up and work." ”
"I ......"
Bruce stared blankly at the design in front of him, it was a design drawing, but there was no picture at all, it was data, but there was no count at all, only a group of indescribable ghost drawings dancing hand in hand.
Suddenly, a figure covered in green light appeared, and the dusty Hal sat down at the table, poured a glass of water, looked at Bruce and said, "You're here?" How's the second part? ”
"I don't know, but can you tell me what it is?" Bruce pointed to a word on the blueprint and asked, it is not difficult to see that its style is different from other symbols, and Bruce does not remember that humans have such a mathematical symbol.
"Oh, isn't that a symbol of the emotional spectrum you've designed? You wanted to tell me about it, but I didn't pay attention to it at all, but you didn't care, just say you can understand it yourself, hurry up and get it done, let's go have a cup of coffee. ”
Hal dozed off on the table after saying that, and Bruce began to dig his head through the materials, and after a while, he finally couldn't take it anymore, he raised all the papers, and then pounded the table vigorously, and said, "Why am I doing this?!" Why would Batman do this?! ”
"Shouldn't it be to fight those thugs with equipment that costs hundreds of millions of dollars, and then use the money that the Wayne Group can't spend enough money to enjoy life? Shouldn't it be about making Gotham better?! ”
"Bruce!" Diana exclaimed.
"I'm not Bruce!" Bruce roared.
"I know, but you listen to me......"
Bruce was stunned, his face distorted for a moment, and just as he wanted to say "You are all playing tricks on me", Diana shrugged her shoulders and said with a nonchalant expression: "Bruce is just a code name, it is also possible that you are not Bruce, but you are all Batman anyway." ”
"As long as Batman can do this job, don't grind, hurry up and leave quickly, you have to help Clark make up the photos at night."
Hal also waved his hand and said, "Man, I don't care which world Batman you are, you are all super geniuses anyway, isn't that pile of drawings in your hand that Batman spent about an hour to make?" Believe me, as long as this thing is built, it will be good for us. ”
Bruce instinctively looked down at the thick pile of information, with an angry and embarrassed expression on his face, but Diana showed a curious look and said, "No, you don't actually have the talent of other Batmans, right?" ”
Hal stood up and said, "Well, actually, we've met two Batmans, one younger and one older, and they relayed the first part of the project. ”
"But we really can't infer from this that every Batman has such a super high IQ." Hal shook his head and said, "You know, the sample is insufficient, and it's possible that you don't understand this." ”
Diana sighed helplessly and said, "Okay, okay, it looks like our work is going to be postponed again." ”
She jumped down from the high bar stool, walked up to Bruce and patted him on the face.
"Fortunately, you still have a beautiful face, let's go, I'll send you back, those little girls who have already booked the observation deck are still waiting for you to show up on time."
