Chapter 44: Continue to work together

It was another dim morning.

The weather in Gotham City is always like this, even affecting the suburbs.

Arthur got up from the bed, washed up, and sat down at his desk, with a thorny lasso on the black keyboard on his right.

He can do a lot with this lasso.

But he didn't want that right now.

He just wanted to build the basement as soon as possible, put this lasso in it, and turn it into a collectible.

Tuk tuk!

Suddenly, there were three slight knocks on the door.

"What's the matter?" Arthur shouted as he looked up.

"Young Master, it's a man named Lex Luthor, and he wants to see you." The head maid, Lena, replied loudly.

"Let him in." Put the obedience noose back into the drawer without a trace, Arthur said.

After a while, Luthor smiled and nodded at Lena and walked into the study, "Hey! My friend, long time no see, are you okay? ”

"We met yesterday." The door closed, and Arthur leaned back: "What?" Lex Group was ready so quickly? ”

"One night is time, isn't it." Luthor sat down on one side of the couch to himself: "For me, I can do a lot in one night. ”

"Including the manufacture of 500 tons of human kryptonite?"

"It's not difficult."

The confidence shown by Luthor left Arthur confused.

500 tons of stuff, even if it's an assembly line, it will take a few days.

"Come and see." He got up from his chair, walked to the window, opened it, and was done in one go.

Arthur stepped out of his chair and walked over to him, following the direction of his finger.

A line of trucks is slowly approaching this direction.

"I got there first." He turned his head and smiled and asked, "Then where should these things be unloaded?" You can't pile it up in the yard. ”

Arthur: "Just stack it in the back of the villa." ”

Luther: "What are you going to do with them?" ”

Arthur: "It's up to you. ”

Luther looked serious and reminded, "Man, even if you can withstand the Kryptonite radiation, your maid group can't. ”

"Regular exposure to them and exposure to them can cause cancerous changes in healthy human cells."

"Coupled with such a large amount of kryptonite, this transformation process will not take more than half a year at most."

“……”

"Are you listening to me?" Luther's voice was raised.

Arthur said, "So, I need your help, and we want to continue to work together." ”

Luthor was so efficient in a way he hadn't expected.

According to his conjecture, five hundred tons of artificial kryptonite would take at least a few months.

"Oh?" Luthor was confused.

"Leave behind the cloth you covered with kryptonite radiation." Arthur was referring to the special materials on trucks that block radiation leakage.

"Stay?" Luthor thought for a moment, then shook his head and refused: "This is impossible, those cloths are of no use to kryptonite radiation." ”

Arthur looked: "Then you pulled it over like this?" A whole five hundred tons of kryptonite? ”

Luthor scratched his nose and said mysteriously, "You'll know later, come with me." ”

He turned away from the house, walked out of the villa, and stood in the open, waiting for the truck to approach.

Arthur walked up to him and said nothing.

What the hell is this guy doing.

……

The truck stopped in front of Arthur and the others, and the workers lifted the tarpaulin and waited for acceptance.

It's not kryptonite, it's water...

Faced with Arthur's questioning gaze, Luthor climbed on the roof of the car and motioned for him to climb up as well: "This is not ordinary fresh water, it is seawater. Pure natural and additive-free. ”

"This is the goods you handed me over?" Arthur's brow furrowed, feeling like he had been tricked.

"Don't worry." He took the black box handed by his assistant from under the car, put it on the roof of the car and opened it, and took out the green kryptonite wrapped in white ore inside: "Show you something good." ”

He threw the kryptonite into the sea naked like this, and in an instant, the kryptonite seemed to be given life, and stomped Arthur's IQ on the ground and rubbed it.

The seawater is squeezed out of the carriage and seeps into the mud, and this small piece of kryptonite is more leek than a leek, and its growth power is amazing.

The truck creaked, and the kryptonite quickly exceeded its carrying limit.

Arthur jumped off the roof of the car with Luthor squatting on the roof of the car and looking excited.

"Look." He got off the roof of the car and pointed to the slow-growing "mountain" of kryptonite: "It only takes a little bit of sea water for him to grow like this." ”

"It's a miracle." One worker was obsessed with saying that he had never seen such a magical picture.

Arthur was equally shocked: "How did you find this?" ”

Luther crossed: "Trade secrets." ”

Rolled his eyes, it was not high-tech, and he hid it: "Send the materials for isolation of radiation as soon as possible." ”

"That thing doesn't come cheap," Luthor said.

"No kidding." Arthur wasn't wronged.

"Okay." Luthor shrugged: "How much do you need." ”

Arthur: "I'll need more than just quarantine materials, I'll send you a list of materials later." ”

Luthor raised an eyebrow: "Of course." I'm okay with that. ”

"Hey! Damn, don't touch it! He suddenly caught a glimpse of a young man trying to die, putting his hand on the exposed kryptonite that had pierced the iron sheet.

The young man woke up suddenly, and withdrew his palm that was about to touch.

In the face of Luther's scolding, he kept apologizing.

"Luther." It wasn't until Arthur shouted at him on the other side of the car that he reluctantly left the youth.

"What's the matter?" Watching Arthur tear open the tin sheet, Luthor's eyelids jumped.

"Did Cyborg look for you?"

Luthor thought for a moment, "That guy didn't know what he saw, he seemed to have forgotten about our attack, and even the police station didn't move. My researchers were not harassed in any way. ”

"That's right..."

It seems that the fact that Superman was used as a guinea pig for experiments has dealt a big blow to his beliefs.

"Then again, why do you believe that the meteorite event is extraordinary?" Luther asked.

Arthur paused his movements: "Guess." ”

"Guess?" Luthor was clearly not convinced: "Then you guessed accurately. ”

The two were speechless.

Arthur broke the awkward atmosphere: "Depending on your character, I guess... You're supposed to have investigated what Cyborg took from the lab. ”

“…… I really can't hide it from you. Luthor thinks Arthur is entitled to know: "I saw a guy who could fly. ”

That should be Superman...

"Flying guys?" Arthur cooperated with a surprised expression: "Where is it?" ”

"The last time they were spotted was in the Metropolis." Luthor said slowly, "The guy with the steel bones showed it on purpose. ”

It wasn't that he showed it on purpose, and Luthor didn't believe it.

Integrating all kinds of high-tech into one, as long as he wants, modern technology will never want to find them.

"What do you think they want to do?" In fact, he already has an answer in his heart, but he just wants to hear something different.

"Hell knows." Arthur didn't reply: "It is possible to take revenge on society, revenge on the government for imprisoning him." ”
