Chapter 586 Doctor Quinn's Occupational Habits (Ask for a monthly pass at the end of the month!)
Brainiac's "crazy" remarks made Harley unable to calm down for a long time - it turns out that there are potential members of the Arkham group in the universe, who are inhuman but have strong logic.
Superman was not touched at all. Instead, his mind wandered and he thought of another thing, "In order to monopolize the wisdom of a civilization, you destroy the rest. There has never been an exception, right?"
"I never make mistakes," Brainiac said.
"So, when you took away the city of Kandor on the eve of Krypton's destruction... what did you do to the sun of Krypton?" Superman trembled.
"I didn't do anything at the time. With my wisdom, I easily judged that Krypton could not last long, and Krypton's civilization was about to destroy itself. Facts have proved that I was right." Brainiac said lightly.
——Ask him what he did next.
When Superman was dejected, a message appeared on the mirrored tablet.
Harry heard something.
Superman did as he was told.
Brainiac did not hesitate, "Krypton exploded, but it was not completely destroyed. One city survived.
Agung City.
When I dug up the city of Kandor, I forgot to recover several robots that were destroyed by the Kryptonian army. They were found by the Kryptonian military commander Zod and given to your uncle Zoel for study.
Your Al family is truly the number one scientific family on Krypton, and they all have the smartest minds - except you.
It only took Zor-El a few months to secretly learn most of my Cosmic Wall technology.
If he were allowed to study for another half a year, he might even build his own city in a bottle.
Even though he was short of time, he designed a force field wall for Argonne City.
When Krypton exploded, Argonne City was only thrown into deep space, and not even the air in the city was lost."
Superman has no doubt about the power of the cosmic wall force field.
Not to mention the explosion of Krypton, even if the sun explodes, it will have no impact on Brainiac's force field.
He saw with his own eyes that the Skull Spaceship was as stable as a rock in the supernova, without even shaking.
"What did you do to Argonne and my uncle?"
"He activated the cosmic wall force field when Krypton was about to explode. The next moment I realized that my technology had been stolen... However, I did not kill everyone in Argonne City.
After the remaining few hundred people surrendered, I sent them into Kandor City.
I'm not a butcher and I don't like killing people for no reason."
Brainiac didn't blush, nor did his eyes flicker.
Superman glared angrily, "Even if Argonne City is not the largest and most prosperous city on Krypton, it has a population of at least one million, but in the end there are only a few hundred people left. Do you still have the nerve to emphasize that you are not a butcher?"
Harley nodded secretly, somewhat recognizing that Brainiac was equal to her in cosmic terror.
This kind of serious nonsense behavior is beyond even her reach.
"I kill them not to massacre, but to ensure that knowledge does not leak out.
I can't bear to have my wisdom shared with others.
Just like you can't bear the wedding night when your first wife is taken by someone else.
My desire for knowledge far exceeds your desire for money, love and power..."
Brainiac walked up to Superman, with a look of loneliness on his face, "I'm telling you this because I thought you were smart enough to understand me. I was wrong, you don't understand anything."
Superman's expression was ferocious, and he wanted to raise his hand to punch him, but he caught a glimpse of new information in the lens.
"You are stupid, you are eager for knowledge, but you have been killing the cradle of the most brilliant knowledge.
Every civilization that has taken away its capital city from you hates you deeply.
They should have worked hard to revitalize the lazy and sluggish civilization and gain vitality.
But you didn't give them a chance.
If you let them go, you will surely harvest richer and sweeter fruits hundreds of years later.
Idiot, you missed 10 billion just for a dime!"
This was paraphrased by Harley, but Superman said it more freely than ever before.
Brainiac looked at him in surprise, "It seems that you are not hopelessly stupid, but it's a pity that your level is not enough."
Superman was startled, "You said it yourself, your desire for knowledge exceeds all mortal desires, what else is there to achieve?"
Brainiac shook his head and sighed: "My desire for knowledge... surpasses the process of enjoying new knowledge. How can it be compared to the desires of mortals?"
Superman was a little confused.
In the mirror space, the Mirror Master said impatiently: "Captain, rush out and kill him! I am 100% sure that Brainiac is a lunatic and talks crazy things. There is nothing more to ask."
Harley was also a little stunned, but she was even more curious.
"How can we defeat him without going deep into his heart?" She pushed him away impatiently, "And the thoughts of mental patients are interesting. Normal people have smooth logic and similar thinking, and there is nothing new.
They are like assembly line products made from the mold of morality and three views, extremely boring.”
Mirror Master looked at her with a bit of horror in his eyes.
"Harley has a doctorate in psychology, is the first psychiatrist at Arkham Asylum, and is the teaching mother of the abnormal believers in Gotham Cathedral.
She might be able to get the right medicine and give Brainiac a fatal blow mentally." Ivy explained in a low voice.
The expressions of the unjust watchers were twisted.
Harley ignored them and quickly typed out a line of text with both hands: Your love for knowledge is the complete possession of it, rather than the process of mastering it?
Superman repeated dryly.
Brainiac glanced at him in surprise again, "It's interesting, you seem to be starting to understand me.
Yes, my ideal is to master all knowledge in the universe, not just learn more knowledge.
This is not to say that I don’t love knowledge, but that I love it so much that I want to possess it completely.
If I rob a city and leave those civilizations striving for strength in hatred, they will definitely develop new knowledge.
The growth of a civilization's knowledge is like the growth of a tree.
The longer the time goes by, the more branches the tree will have and the more lush it will be.
The more branches there are, the more complex the types of knowledge represented and the greater the quantity.
If I cut off one branch at a time instead of sawing off the base of the trunk, my knowledge gaps will become larger and larger.
In other words, if the knowledge in the entire universe is 100%, its growth rate is 20%, and the growth rate of the knowledge I plunder is only 5%, then the proportion of knowledge I master is actually shrinking.
This is intolerable to me.
Just like you mortals can't bear that a large part of your lover doesn't belong to you. And the part that belongs to others is still increasing, so that you can foresee that she will leave you one day.
It’s unbearable, unbearable!”
Brainiac screamed excitedly for a while, then quickly regained his composure, "Of course, my highest ideal is to control all knowledge, but I also really enjoy the process of learning knowledge - for the first time in three hundred years, I woke up
Come, for you... you.
I did not destroy the entire civilization—poisoning the tree at its roots completely eliminated the growth of knowledge.
I put the most prosperous city into a glass bottle - save a branch and let it grow under my 100% control.
The miniature city in the bottle has become the entirety of civilization, and new knowledge is born every second of every day, even if the speed is countless times slower.
Every second of every day, I am absorbing the knowledge of the city in the bottle.
Did you see the steel cable above the bottle?
They are actually data cables that transmit the latest wisdom of the civilization in the bottle to my brain at all times."
Brainiac pointed at the round-hole data interface on his head, which looked like more than a dozen "ring scars" glowing purple-red. Even at this time, there was still a data cable plugged into the center of the back of his head.
Perhaps while dealing with Superman, he is also learning the wisdom of the civilization in the bottle?
"If the knowledge of the entire universe is 100%, then in the process of destroying other civilizations other than the city in the bottle, the proportion I master has been increasing.
In this way, I can not only enjoy the process of learning knowledge, but also satisfy my desire to control all the knowledge in the universe."
"I say this, do you understand?" Brainiac looked at Superman expectantly.
——I don’t want to understand, I just want to punch you in the head!
Superman yelled: "Even if you destroy civilization every day, the universe is infinitely large, and new civilizations are born faster.
You can never put the entire civilization of the universe into a bottle, you can never master the knowledge of the entire universe."
Brainiac smiled.
He smiled for the first time since he came out of the eggshell.
A very proud smile.
"Each new civilization will increase my power, and my power will continue to grow.
It took me a full fifty years to absorb the first civilization.
Now, I can absorb the wisdom of a galaxy in an average of five hours.
In the future, when the speed of my absorption of wisdom exceeds the speed of the birth of civilization in the universe, this storage room of mine will be the entire universe itself!"
——I have discovered Brainiac’s psychological flaw—a strong desire to control information and a strong inability to adapt to a chaotic information environment. Comments—This boy has the appearance of the leader of the Arkham group. Conclusion—No need
If you keep talking nonsense, beat him to death. It doesn't matter if you can't beat him to death, I have a trump card that can kill him!
Dr. Quinn gave the verdict.
"Ah-I won't give you another chance to harm any planet or anyone."
Dachao roared ferociously, his muscles all over his body rose, and the steel cables tied to his body broke.
Brainiac smiled sarcastically, quickly reached out with his right hand, pulled off the windproof glasses from his neck, and quickly took a few steps back.
"Whoosh whoosh!" Endless steel cables extended from all directions at extremely high speeds, like a sea of pythons, covering the superstructure layer by layer, and eventually submerged, leaving only one head outside.
"Coward, hide, golden nuclear bomb, you really disappoint me."
He didn't even look at the struggling and shouting Superman, he just held the lens in front of his eyes and sneered again and again.
"Fuck, he found us." Several people in the spacecraft were shocked.
Harry was still there and continued typing on the keyboard, "I'm sorry to disappoint you. I'm a little curious. You seem to have discovered me a long time ago. Where did you expose the flaw?"
"It only took me a few hours to absorb the knowledge and memories of a civilization. Tell me, how long does it take for me to download the memories of a mere Kryptonian?" Brainiac said lightly.
"Superman's memory is useless, right? You're still using psychic powers to read his current memory!" Harley said.
Brainiac shook his head slightly, "While he was still on the experimental bench, I implanted a nanochip in his head to monitor his mental fluctuations at all times.
I have psychic powers, but I can’t hide it from him using my psychic powers.”
After a pause, he sneered again: "I don't know how to talk to mice. If you don't come out again, you will never come out again."
"What does he mean? Can he still attack us through the mirror?" Mirror Master asked doubtfully.
Brainiac threw the toad mirror casually, and two thumb-thick metal data cables swam across the dome like flexible snakes.
"Buzz!"
Their ports emit purple-red beams of light, and a powerful force field freezes the toad mirror in mid-air.
"Ah, that force field can really cut off the connection between me and the mirror." Mirror Master exclaimed in surprise.
"What should we do now?" Master Nerve looked at Harley hurriedly.
"You and I will deal with him." Harley finally took out a set of N metal scale armor and put it on, and said in a calm tone.
"Me?" The dwarf swallowed, sweat covering his forehead.
