After everyone had eaten and drank enough, they continued to talk in the order listed before. When it came to Jenna, it was even more disastrous.
The brother and sister Jenna and Zan are actually aliens. The planet they were born on experienced a great plague, causing the death of all their parents and relatives. By chance, they came to the earth in a spaceship, and because of
The language and habits of the people on Earth were incomprehensible, causing a lot of trouble, and was finally recruited by the Justice League.
This means one thing, that for the people on earth, the two of them are equivalent to semi-illiterates.
Zan is a little better. He liked to play with machines on his original planet. After coming to the Justice League, he can help the members repair their equipment. However, Jenna studied geography. After coming to Earth, there is basically no use for her.
With the help of members of the Justice League, they learned English, but their learning was also confusing. They are currently at the stage where they can communicate fluently, but it is still a bit difficult for them to fully understand the underlying logic of human speech on Earth.
Jenna's narration of her life over the past few months was even more confusing.
At first, when her brain was still functioning, she could speak decent English. However, after eating, her blood sugar level rose, and her oral diary was lackluster. She became increasingly sleepy, and began to mix English words with extraterrestrial words.
The grammar turned into an alien language in the end.
The language of their alien planet sounds a bit like a combination of Russian and French. The expressions are rather wordy, and the tone is straight and unwavering, just like chanting sutras.
Jenna kept talking there for two or three hours, and everyone except Batman fell to his knees.
When she announced that she had finished speaking, everyone woke up from a dream. Wonder Woman gave a thumbs up to Batman, who was always awake. Martian Manhunter wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth. This time, he couldn't hold on.
Because he can't understand the alien language either.
Superman spoke in detail, but it was quite refreshing to hear his experience of conquering all monsters and monsters. For people like Jenna who couldn't understand it, it was still a bit too difficult to ask them to stay focused at all times.
The Flash fell asleep, but Superman pushed him to wake him up. When he woke up, he looked like "Who am I? Where am I? What am I going to do?"
"Barry, let's talk first." Batman knocked on the table and said, "You're injured. After you finish talking, you can go lie down next to you for a while."
The Flash cast a grateful look at him, because he was indeed feeling a little uncomfortable sitting here now. Going to sleep on the recliner next to him would help him recover.
The Flash began to talk about his experiences in the past few months.
He is also well-educated and a bit talkative. He used to speak very fast, but now that he is injured and feels very uncomfortable, his speaking speed naturally slows down.
Just because he was injured and others were not well, he was asked to speak quickly, and in conjunction with his chatty wording habit, he would talk about this thing, that thing, and then say the same thing again.
Come here to say that what you said before is wrong, or to add details to something that was said a long time ago. Anyway, it is confusing.
Fortunately, he failed to break Superman's record. He only spoke for more than three hours, and it was already early in the morning.
Everyone suggested that they go to bed first and continue talking tomorrow. Batman had no objection.
There are three deck chairs in the conference room, which were originally used for members to rest, but obviously there were not enough seats, so others made them on the floor. God knows where Batman got the quilt, but everyone is not a pretentious person, so they chose it casually.
He found a place and lay down.
However, considering that there was a mole, everyone did not turn off the lights. They worked in pairs and took turns keeping vigil. The first group was Batman and Martian Manhunter.
They came to another corner of the room and lowered their voices as much as possible. Martian Manhunter said: "This plan is not that simple, right? At least I didn't see anyone lying during the day. Are you sure the mole will reveal his flaws?"
"Of course, in fact, there is enough information that can be summarized during the day." Batman said: "I believe you can also hear that the vampire expansion trend is very strange."
"you mean……"
"Theoretically speaking, if an organization wants to develop on the earth, it cannot do without three factors: people, territory, and resources."
Martian Manhunter nodded, feeling that it made sense. Batman was right in this regard.
After all, although it is said that the Seven Giants established the Justice League, in fact many basic things were created by Batman. He bought the land where the Justice League is located, and he built the building using the resources at his disposal, including security and defense.
He designed the system and organized many fan activities. He is definitely an authority in this regard.
"But vampires only seem to care about the first aspect." Batman sharply pointed out the problem, "They do have an advantage in member transformation. They only need a simple ritual to transform an absolutely loyal member of the organization, but a
An organization is useless if it only has members."
"First of all, you need a scientific management system to maximize the use of converted members. Loyalty cannot be eaten for food."
“Leaders must know people well and assign them well, find out what each person is good at, and then assign them to corresponding positions. Those who can fight will be field service, those who can manage will be administrative, those who are good at eloquence will be diplomats, and those who are not good at anything will be unified into logistics
Do chores."
Martian Manhunter nodded again. Although this is a simple truth, it is still very difficult to do it. Throughout the ages, those who can know people well and take charge of them are all wise kings.
"After the personnel are arranged, of course we need to find a site." Batman continued: "This is what makes me feel strange. The vampires have expanded for so long and have a lot of members, but they have never had a main base.
"
"Maybe they hid the base?" Martian Manhunter raised a possibility.
Batman shook his head and said: "Their members are not dozens or hundreds, but hundreds of thousands. Even if a base that can accommodate so many members can hide it from the Flash and Wonder Woman, it can't hide it from me and Superman."
.”
"You have heard what Superman said about his experiences before. He has been dealing with scattered incidents and has never had a decisive battle. He has flown all over the world and has not found a large base with more than a thousand people. If a vampire has the ability to hide it,
If you can control him, there is no need to hide."
Martian Manhunter felt that what Batman said made sense. Even if there were omissions in Batman's investigation, Superman's ability to obtain information was unreasonable. He could hear the voices of every person on earth while flying in the universe, including hundreds of thousands of vampires.
Gathered together, it is impossible to hide it from Superman's ears.
"Even if they hide the base, what about the resources?" Batman continued: "For ordinary people, how many resource production lines are needed to support hundreds of thousands of people?"
Martian Manhunter thought for a while and then said: "Humanity has already passed this stage. Now is the era of globalization. Daily necessities for a city of hundreds of thousands of people may come from all over the world."
"That's right. Even if vampires don't need any weapons and equipment, just to solve the problem of eating, they need to build a brand new industrial chain from beginning to end."
Martian Manhunter shuddered and said, "You mean they're going to start a human ranch?"
"The problem is that they should do it, but they didn't do it." Batman shook his head and said: "As far as I know, vampires can suck all the blood from a person's body at one time, and they need to eat at least once a day, which means they eat one meal
Eat alone."
"Suppose the King of Vampires now has 100,000 vampires in his hands. 50,000 of them are scattered around the world and can be hunted separately. The remaining 50,000 are engaged in training and production tasks in the main base. To feed these 50,000 vampires, it will consume every day.
Fifty thousand humans.”
"You can't catch so many from the outside, so you have to engage in breeding. Humans are omnivores. Even if they only meet the minimum survival needs, they have to consume about 50 tons of food a day."
Martian Manhunter took a breath of cold air. For modern agriculture, 50 tons is not a particularly big number. Basically, seventy or eighty acres of farmland can solve the problem. Using agricultural machinery for large-scale farming, one person can do it for a while.
That's it.
But you let vampires farm? It can only be said that the sun may not agree. Although it is not impossible to farm at night, Martian Manhunter really can't imagine a vampire driving a farm machine to plow the fields.
"The key is the problem of reproduction." Batman shook his head and said: "The age of human sexual maturity is too late. It takes more than ten years to start reproducing. Only one child can be born at a time, and the probability of dystocia is very high. Then from infancy and early childhood, we can contribute
The adult stage of blood takes another ten years."
"If there are 100,000 vampires in the world, 100,000 living people will be consumed every day, which is 1 million in 10 days. The total number of people will be close to 40 million a year. The two countries with the highest fertility rates combined will only produce 100,000 new vampires every year.
Just increase the population."
Martian Manhunter suddenly realized what Batman was talking about - vampires' current strategy of crazy transformation of members was actually destroying themselves.
Even if they are omnipotent in the sky and on the earth, and all the countries on the earth can do nothing to them, but if they continue like this, the biggest enemy they face is not human beings, but famine.
The human reproduction rate cannot support vampires.
As long as they can eat every five days, or even every three days, there is still room for recovery.
But they eat one person a day. 100,000 vampires eat 100,000 people a day. If they expand to 200,000, they will eat 200,000 people a day. Humans on the earth can only give birth to 300,000 to 400,000 people a day. If they continue to multiply like this
If it goes down, no one can afford it.
"I'm afraid the so-called King of Vampires has never thought about this problem." Batman said: "His order caused all vampires to start transforming members unscrupulously."
"But their transformation ritual is very simple. It takes less than ten minutes to transform a person. It is not a problem for a vampire to transform twenty or thirty people a day. This is completely exponential growth."
"Even if their base number is only a few thousand, after so many months of transformation, no one knows how many there are. I am afraid that some villages and towns with small populations have already begun to suffer from famine."
Martian Manhunter finally figured everything out, and he said: "I think this vampire king may not even know how many people they have now. If he knew, he would be shocked."
"And because the transformed must completely obey the transformer, this will further urge vampires to continuously transform humans. Who doesn't want to support and own countless slaves? Transforming dozens of people a day is a conservative estimate." Batman was worried.
say.
"We can't go on like this." Martian Manhunter said: "If this rate of transformation continues, humanity will perish sooner or later."
"The destruction of mankind is no longer the biggest problem now." Batman sighed and said: "You said if all humans are transformed into vampires, what will happen next?"
Martian Manhunter was stunned. He really hadn't thought about this problem.
