"Honestly, Batman, you've never asked me to study you so closely. Well, and of course those abilities of yours. You've always resisted this kind of direct research, and I thought you didn't like it...... You know, the act of treating yourself as an experiment. ”

Lucius's voice came from the side, but Chen Tao was a little absent-minded. He sat expressionless, with a foul face, and let Lucius drain a tube of blood from him.

While drawing blood, he babbled: "And you haven't been to me for a long time, I seriously suspect that you came to me when you need it, and then made me a lot of unreasonable demands, and then kicked me aside when I was fine, and went to enjoy your happy holiday alone." ”

However, Chen Tao didn't pay attention to what he was saying at all, he lowered his head and lamented:

"Oh, I'm so stupid, I shouldn't have let Cyborg ......"

"What did you say?"

"Nothing, go on, Lucius."

Chen Tao sighed.

Whether it's the comics or movies he's watched, it's always Cyborg that finally closes the pop channel and stops Darkseid from invading Earth.

In the original plot, he was activated by the mother box by very accident, endowed with Apocalypse Star Technology, and then absorbed all the high-tech equipment in the Star Laboratory, plus he lost part of his limbs, and a variety of factors superimposed, and finally created him by mistake.

And now, it is almost impossible to reproduce the miracle of serendipitous coincidence in the regular state! Chen Tao tried it in the room where the steel skeleton was supposed to be created in the Star Laboratory, and no matter what instrument was used, the mother box did not respond at all.

And this leads to a new question: if Darkseid does reach Earth, without the steel bones, then who will close his pop channel?

The ability of the steel bone originally came from the mother box, so it could be connected to it and switch the pop channel, but if Chen Tao wanted to use the ability of Bat Leniac to communicate with the mother box, the final result would be to try to use a USB card reader to read the contents of the disc, which was completely wrong.

His previous attempt to stuff nanobots and mudface across the blast channel had also failed, and he didn't know if it was Steppenwolf's spaceship or the direct path to Apocalypse, but the only thing he knew was that the methods he had used had been lost in the sea without making a splash.

"Batman, you sync that nanobot first...... Hell, even though you've told me all this, I still can't get used to something that anti-science. ”

Lucius' voice rang in his ears.

Chen Tao did so.

Lucius took all kinds of strange instruments around him to test and test, and Chen Tao continued to think.

He even anticipated that the means would be completely detected by Darkseid, so he even gave the nanobots an order to return the information when it got it, but there was no response, and the message was either intercepted or not sent at all.

Chen Tao touched his ass and chin.

However, this is also expected, if it is so simple to set up surveillance at the enemy, then the Apocalypse Star Legion will not be able to crisscross the universe and make people fearful.

Chen Tao turned his head and looked at Lucius, who had come again to try to draw blood.

"Okay, no? In the past few days, you have been asking me to synchronize different bats, and you have already drained at least four gallons of my blood. ”

4 gallons, about 15 liters. With so much blood, even the agent of the red of all beings can't hold it.

"Alright, alright, alright."

In the face of Chen Tao's question, Lucius had already prepared to take out a piece of paper from the drawer of the table next to him and handed it to Chen Tao.

"Here's your body analysis report."

So why are you still drawing my blood after the report has been released...... Take this opportunity to do a little more research and use it, right?

"There are some analyses from Dr. Silas Stone that are undoubtedly inspiring.

I tried to hide some of the data as much as possible when communicating with him, so that he would not think of you. Lucius said, "But he is very grateful to you, and I always feel the need to hide it from him." ”

"There's nothing wrong with being careful." Chen Tao said as he flipped through the report in front of him. Lucius stood beside him.

"All in all, after many tests, I feel that I can fully illustrate your current situation with a metaphor."

Lucius said, "Weightlifting. ”

"Let's take a conclusion, Batman. You can no longer overclock indefinitely using the power of synchronized Batman, which is extremely dangerous. ”

"But I was able to do it." "The Alfred Protocol tells me that I can't synchronize the speed bullet bat for more than 10 minutes, but I can now extend it to about 15 minutes," Chen said. ”

Lucius sighed, he walked in front of Chen Tao, took the report in his hand, and then turned to a few pages, pointed to the indicators on it, and said to Chen Tao:

"That Alfred agreement of yours...... Okay, let's skip over how anti-scientific that thing really is, and just talk about what we know so far. ”

"You're like a dumbbell lifter, Bruce. Remember when I had you stay in that surveillance room for 24 hours and try to sync a different Batman every three hours? ”

"What's wrong?"

"That's the problem."

Lucius said:

"After a lot of comparisons, I found that for you, synchronous Batman is like carrying weight, and how much weight you can carry is determined by your own strength or some other variable that I haven't discovered yet."

"But the problem is that as an athlete, you don't really know how much you can bear."

"And the Alfred protocol's time limit for you is like having a coach standing next to you, and when he sees that you can't hold on, he quickly stops to prevent you from being crushed to death by falling dumbbells."

Lucius paused and continued:

"Or the metaphor of the coach is a bit inappropriate, of course the gym coach will not watch you being crushed to death by dumbbells, and if you can't catch it, he will definitely do his best to help you lift."

"But according to your description, the Alfred Protocol is at best a detector that can detect whether you can hold up at any time, and you can ignore the accurate data he gave, but of course you don't want to expect him to reach out to you when you are crushed to death."

"Moreover, ordinary people are always carrying weight, and there will be problems with the spine. Do you think you wouldn't be able to do it if you were Batman? ”

"Of course, the parallel universe Batman you've loaded with is completely different."

"They're no longer your weights, they're your muscles, and they're the ones that allow you to lift heavier pieces of iron," Lucius said. ”

"So it's okay not to always keep synchronizing the Batman of a parallel universe, even if synchronizing this Batman is negligible, but no matter how small a dumbbell is, it is a dumbbell."

Chen Tao listened silently.

The scientist continued: "For you, the Batman who is synchronized is always the force you use as a fulcrum. Even if you turn it into iron armor and wear it on your body, the weight will still not disappear, and it will not end well over time.

"That's why you're trying to synchronize two higher-tier Batmans and failing: you're doing it like you're wearing a heavy suit of armor and trying to lift a heavier dumbbell."

"So you said so much, I asked you what about the enhancement plan you wanted?"

Hearing that Lucius still wanted to go on at length, Chen Tao immediately interrupted him: "Enough, don't say it." I'm not here to tell you everything. ”

He said, "Given a specific direction of reinforcement, how can I synchronize those monsters for a longer period of time?" ”

"It's simple."

"Just like a muscle-building Hercules workout, take the time to work on the strength you already have on your body that doesn't need to be synchronized with the Alfred Protocol," Lucius said. ”

"By repeatedly exercising the abilities that you have already loaded, you will naturally be able to increase your weight limit a little bit."

"But the increase is too slow." Chen Tao said: "What else can be done? ”

"Of course, you have another choice."

Lucius said, "Go to technology. ”

He shrugged:

"For example, injecting yourself with human face bat serum or some other enhancement potion or something. It's also about increasing your 'muscles'. ”

Chen Tao rubbed his eyebrows.

He probably understands the situation.

Lucius gave him a much more detailed method than he had ever explored on his own.

Damn.

Chen Tao sat in his seat, and his mind thought of what he had longed for at the beginning of the crossing.

As long as he can find a platinum kryptonite that can give ordinary people superhuman abilities, and then swallow a mouthful of platinum kryptonite, my life is up to me......

Chen Tao shook his head, and this unreliable fantasy turned out of his head.

"Okay, I see, Lucius. What I asked you earlier, have you collected all the information about the members of the Star Lab in Canterlot? ”

"Ah, here."

Lucius handed another document to Chen Tao: "Star Lab is a large organization all over the United States, with so many members, and I honestly don't know any members in many cities. Luckily, I had a friend who gave me the list. ”

"Hmm." Chen Tao stretched out his hand to take the list, then stood up, and took out a boxy metal body from the bag beside him.

"What is this?" Lucius was taken aback.

"Mother box, of course." Chen Tao told him.

"What are you kidding?"

Lucius blinked: "I remember you had a big fight with the people on the government side over this matter, and the tension was so tense that you almost fought each other at one point, and Alfred told me that you came back every day some time ago with a stinky face." ”

"General Arryn even shouted out such a nonsense declaration as "if you want to take away the mother box, take his life", how did it take two days......"

He pointed to the mother box next to him, which was still a little uncertain: "The mother box appeared directly in your hand?" ”

Despite saying this, Lucius was very honest in his hands, and he took the mother box from Chen Tao's hand with a smile: "I've wanted to study this thing for a long time. ”

Then he saw Chen Tao hand over another document to him: "This is all that Dr. Silas Stone knows about the mother box so far, and I can use it as a reference for you." ”

Lucius held the mother box in one hand and the research materials of his peers in the other, and put them all on the instrument next to him with great satisfaction.

"Okay, thanks, bat." "But there's a problem," he said. ”

He said: "How on earth did you convince the military to give you the mother box? In my opinion, this is completely impossible! ”

Chen Tao paused.

"I didn't convince the military to give me the mother box."

"And the one in front of you?"

"There's no doubt about the real thing."

"Didn't you get the mother box?" Lucius asked, and then he heard the words that had been impressive in his life.

"I stole it." Batman puffed out his chest.

Lucius's silence was deafening.

"Huh? That's, uh, so it was, that'......"

"I made Clay Face look like a mother box with a part of his body tissue, and stayed in his original position."

Chen Tao said: "When they find out that everything is too late, to be honest, the tug-of-war in the past few weeks has annoyed me, all kinds of interest exchanges and mutual temptations, they just bite the ownership of the mother box and don't let go, what can I do?" ”

"I can't really rob," he said. Of course, I can only steal it. ”

He patted Lucius on the shoulder.

"Anyway, you study the mother box first, and I'll equip you with enough robot guards and a one-touch call to my watch to be enough for you to face this alien technology head-on in safety. Remember not to activate it. ”

A few minutes later, Chen Tao left Lucius's lab again and sat inside the stealth bat plane.

The plane is in autopilot mode, heading towards its destination. Chen Tao took out the document he had from under his rib that Lucius had given him the list of personnel in the Star Lab.

He opened it and flipped through it.

It reads:

Continental United States.

Star Labs, Canterlot (Missouri)

Related Members:

Kathleen Snow

Sisko Raymond

Harrison Wells

Experimental equipment: ......

Building Configuration: ......

Most of the information was collected completely, and Chen Tao took a doughnut from a nearby drawer and stuffed it into his mouth.

All in all, gather more Justice League members first, and then take care of the rest of the matter.

Chen Tao thought and took another bite of the doughnut.

He had asked Dick to collect information about the family of Barry Allen the Flash, but fortunately, Barry's official partner Iris and her father were both white, unlike the TV series he had watched before......

Haha, what was he thinking?

Chen Tao shook his head, after all, since he traveled to the present, what he has faced is basically the plot in the comics, and it has nothing to do with the TV series.

Chen Tao shook his head.

All in all, if you follow the plot in the comics, this trip should go very smoothly, well, let me see, Barry Allen's girlfriend at this time is called Petty?

After a flight of dozens of minutes, Chen Tao's stealth bat plane finally stopped on the rooftop of a building not far from the Star Lab in Canterlot.

Chen Tao changed into a crisp suit, and as Bruce Wayne, he entered the interior of the Star Lab in a short time, and the Star Lab also held a party for the visit of their investor, Mr. Bruce Wayne. Barry Allen was also present.

Chen Tao carefully observed everyone present.

Well, that's right.

Caitlyn, Sisko, and Chen Tao felt that these names were a little familiar, as if they were not often seen in the comics, but this list of experimenters was provided by Lucius, and maybe they were characters who did not appear in the comics.

Oh, by the way, he'd already met two lab members, and of course another.

Chen Tao turned around, and amid everyone's welcome, he saw that at the end of the corridor, an electric wheelchair carrying a thin middle-aged man wearing glasses slowly drove towards him.

"Hello, Mr. Wayne, I'm Harrison Wells."

Chen Tao shook his hand. "Fortunately, Wells taught ......"

Chen Tao stopped suddenly.

The sense of immediacy in front of him became stronger and stronger, and he suddenly realized a problem in an instant. He glared at Professor Wells in front of him, and wailed inwardly:

"I'm super, it's reverse lightning!"

"What kind of world do I live in?! How come even the plot of the Flash TV series appears in reality?! ”
