Chapter 114 Gotham in Progress (Part 2)

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Gotham City's sewers have a long history, and no matter which urban reconstruction it is, it has basically not been affected here. This is Gotham's darkest underground kingdom.

Basically, no Gotham citizens would wander around here with nothing to do. If there are some strange evil scientists and good neighbors in the underground sewers of Marvel's New York, then the Gotham sewers during this period can be said to be dead silent.

Even tramps and beggars will not come down because they have heard the legend that everyone who appears in the sewers will disappear for no reason.

But Catwoman is very brave, and she can get into any nook and cranny. In order to avoid Bruce's sight, she got into the sewer in three times.

Catwoman is indeed gifted in this area. She didn't go far when she found traces of human activity near the east reservoir.

Originally, she was just curious, so she kept searching for these traces, but soon, what she discovered next exceeded her expectations. Catwoman discovered a huge conference room in the sewer.

If Catwoman tried to commit suicide again, she knew it was a big deal, so she quickly called Bruce.

After receiving the news, Falcone, Bruce and Schiller arrived together. The three of them stood in the huge conference room. Bruce looked up at the dome covered with ribbons and said: "This is not what some gangster or gangster can do."

Something built..."

Indeed, the ceiling here is more than ten meters high, and the entire conference room uses a huge stone support structure. Not to mention the ingenuity of this architectural design, such a large amount of work cannot be completed by one or two people.

of.

Falcone stood at the front of the huge conference table. He seemed a little silent. The old godfather's eyes slid along the conference table to the end and looked at Schiller who was meditating there. He asked: "You look like

Not surprised."

"The same goes for you," Schiller said.

The three of them were all silent. Finally, Bruce broke the deadlock and said, "It seems that we have all guessed that there is a mysterious force secretly controlling Gotham, and this is the evidence."

"We all paid a heavy price for this." It was Falcone who spoke, and he said: "I know that you have not stopped questioning the death of your parents, and so have I."

The old godfather closed his eyes and seemed to be lost in thought again. He said: "My eldest son died in an equally bizarre shooting, that was also a night many years ago, but I chose to remain silent until today.

"

"Do you think these people are murderers?" Bruce knocked on the table, then looked at Schiller and said: "Professor, you should have no reason to pursue this matter, and when you faced the killer that day, you called out

Got his name."

"You'd better not be so judgmental. Then why do you think I'm chasing serial murders around the world?" Schiller said.

Bruce frowned and said, "Have you known the secret about the existence of this organization for a long time?"

"More than that, I know more, but I can't reveal it, and even if you know it, I'm afraid it won't change anything."

"What's its name?" Falcone asked.

"The Court of Owls, their killer is called Talon."

"That nursery rhyme..." Bruce suddenly remembered that there was a strange and scary nursery rhyme circulating in Gotham City: Beware of the Court of Owls, always watching your travels, peeking at Gotham City from the dark, hiding in the attic with low walls, living in the

He is with you at home, in your bed and in your bed. Never mention his name, for his sharp claws will hunt for your head.

Falcone was silent and did not continue to ask. Bruce wanted to ask more, but Schiller interrupted him. He said: "What we need to think about now is, why did this organization suddenly evacuate here? This doesn't seem to be anything.

good sign."

Schiller was really confused, why did the Court of Owls disappear overnight?

In so many comics, he has never seen any Court of Owls sneak out of Gotham. Judging from the appearance of this conference room, it seems that it was used not long ago. Why did it disappear in an instant?

Bruce Mosuo raised his chin and said, "Maybe they just moved their base?"

"Then why did they suddenly move their base?"

Bruce and Falcone both shook their heads. From the perspective of these three people, this behavior is indeed strange. Nothing major has happened in Gotham recently. Why should this organization move in a hurry?

And this conference room is indeed very secret. If they hadn't moved too quickly and left traces, it is estimated that even if all the buildings on the ground in Gotham were rebuilt, the base underground would not have been discovered.

The investment is so huge and the construction is so sophisticated, but they just don't want it. What on earth is going on that they don't know about?

"But now we have confirmed that such an organization does exist, and it is not an accident that Gotham has developed to this day." Falcone said.

"We must unite," Schiller said, knocking on the table.

"No matter what you think, I must warn you that this organization is more terrifying than you think. It is not only controlling Gotham, but also wants to control the whole world."

"If we cannot come up with the power to fight it, Gotham and the entire world will surely be shrouded in darkness under the wings of the owl."

"I will make them pay." Falcone said: "I have been waiting for this day for too long. Just because I don't speak does not mean that I have forgotten this matter. I am just waiting for them to leave a feather.

And today, I finally waited."

"Looks like we all have a grudge against the Court of Owls," Bruce said, crossing his arms.

He was not 100% sure that the death of his parents was related to this mysterious organization, but he was extremely certain that if it was this dark organization that controlled Gotham and made it what it is today, then they must be too.

One of the culprits who killed his parents.

Bruce stood on one side of the long table, and Falcone and Schiller stood on both ends of the long table. In the dark conference room, there was only the slowly swaying candlelight.

Finally, Falcone said: "In order to avenge them, I am willing to form an alliance with you, but this alliance must be secretive enough. Any member who joins this alliance must be reviewed by other members, and we have only one purpose."

…”

Bruce continued his words: "Break all the mysterious forces trying to control Gotham..."

"...bringing a new order to the city," Schiller said.

The three people who returned to the ground said nothing. This covenant did not have any paper documents or even any clear regulations, but the three people all knew that this secret meeting that took place underground in Gotham determined the city.

future destiny.

Soon, Detective Gordon and Lawyer Harvey, whose character, abilities and beliefs can be trusted, also joined this alliance one after another, and the original version of "Gotham Secret Society" was born.

This is an organization that is even more mysterious than the Court of Owls. It has no goals, no action plan, and no one even uses any identity of this organization to communicate. They only maintain a superficial social identity, and only

When doing certain things, there is a tacit understanding that is just a little more than usual.

The ultimate goal of this organization is only one: if Gotham is born in chaos, let it remain chaotic and free forever. Anyone who wants to control this place will eventually fail, and Gotham will always be Gotham.

After confirming the movements of the Court of Owls, Schiller put aside his scruples and began to prepare for the first reconstruction of Gotham City. The first thing he had to do was to come up with a perfect urban planning plan for Gotham City.

.

Of course, Schiller himself had no knowledge in this area, but it didn't matter, he had a pretty easy-to-use golden finger.

"Stark, use your genius brain to think of a solution!"

In Marvel New York, in the laboratory of Stark Tower, Schiller handed a box of blueprints to Stark. Stark was confused. After reading two pages, he said: "What is this? A city planning map? You put this

What are you doing for me?"

"Now I need a perfect urban planning plan for this city. You'd better get it quickly. I need it urgently."

Stark glanced at the drawings, and then at him. The two of them stared at each other, and Stark said, "Why do you think I know how to plan cities?"

"You don't know how, but you can learn. You always have to learn anyway. Why can't it be today?"

"Even if you can't learn it, Jarvis can learn it. He is a super artificial intelligence. Planning a city should be easy, right?"

Stark opened his mouth, and the curse words were almost on his lips. He looked down at the drawings again and said, "Are you going to let me do the urban planning of such a huge city by myself?"

"Okay." Schiller said: "Actually, there is a super genius similar to you who has already come up with the first version of the plan, just because... you know, his supercomputer is not powerful enough, so I can only

Let me borrow some technical support from you."

Stark didn't listen to anything else. He only heard the words "a super genius similar to you". Just as he was about to refute, Schiller threw another part of the drawing to him. Stark stared in doubt.

He glanced twice and then froze.

"Wait a minute." Stark lowered his head and dug out some documents in the box, and then began to compare them on the spot. He took out more drawings while looking at them, and he said: "Is this an exam question? This

The city doesn’t exist in the world at all, it’s just a figment of your imagination, what’s the point of that?”

"The point is to see who of you two is more talented."

"I say it again, there is absolutely no one in this world who is smarter than Stark." Stark stretched out a finger and said: "If you think there is such a person, it must be your illusion. I will prove it now.

show you."

As he spoke, he also started to write and draw on the map with a pen. He said, "Okay, I admit that he is a genius. His understanding of the logistics operation system is unique and looks perfect..."

"But it's definitely not the best. I have a better idea... Look here, this central turntable is the problem. You must think this turntable is very important..."

Once it comes to this kind of problem, Stark will become very serious and extremely organized. He said: "The guy you are talking about, I admit that he is very strong. It seems that he did not even use computer tools, but artificial intelligence."

Computing has almost reached human limits..."

"But he lacks creativity. As I said, his vision is a bit backward. The city does not have to be flat, it can also be three-dimensional..."

"A three-dimensional city, yes, it is a three-dimensional city. I know this concept has been proposed for many years, and no city has been successfully implemented, but suppose, I mean suppose, the city you gave me really exists in this world.

, then the three-dimensional city must be the most perfect solution!"

Stark's tone was quite decisive. He said: "Look at the structure of this city...look here! This is the prototype. What is it called? Living hell? How could someone name a neighborhood like this?"

"Forget it, that's not important. What's important is that their spontaneously formed ecosystem is almost infinitely close to the concept of a three-dimensional city. This is actually part of the standard answer. This model is very suitable for the current situation of the city.

,especially it also has a port..."

"Look at this person's plan. He uses the central turntable as the main hub. The idea is correct, but as I said, he lacks creativity. The central turntable could not be a circle, but a sphere..."

"Let us move away from the 2D plane. It is outdated and too rigid. Now Stark will tell you what true genius is..."
