Chapter 5033 Ancestors and Discovery

 Batman actually doesn't like sewers very much. Unless an old friend escapes there, he will go in there to have fun during a chase.

In most cases, he is more laissez-faire about this area, because the figures also need a safe area where they can discuss plans together or secretly make some plans.

Just like when playing a game of catch, a safe 'home' will be drawn for those who are fleeing. When children escape into this area, they cannot be caught again. This is the same principle.

In fact, if we look at Batman's financial resources and the manpower he can mobilize, he could have installed surveillance equipment in all the sewers in Gotham City that would not be discovered, but he did not do so. Of course there is a reason.

It is his subjective reason, not restricted by any objective factors.

Today, he walked into a sewer project that was built a hundred years ago, or to be more precise, a mine. It was the first time that he saw the original appearance of the sewer. This network of tunnels that was basically parallel to the ground was not what he was looking for.

Nominally, the ancestors of the Wayne family contracted the sewer project to provide benefits to the people in the town, but in reality, they were to steal the treasures of the dead Indians and enrich the pockets of the four major families.

But this was only the second layer of cover. Edmund used those belongings to hide the other three families, and at the same time carried out his own secret plan, which was to arrange the 'last smile'.

In his design, the Last Smile was a secret method to kill the British who might come to the New World at any time, but in the end, under the secret transformation of each generation of Wayne family members, it turned into a terrifying thing.

The biological weapon was almost used by the Laughing Bat.

Not only Earth 0 has that system, the laughing dark multidimensional Earth-1 also has it, the past main world Earth 1 also has it, and today's Earth 16 also has it. It is part of every Batman's background story.

Of course, those are all digressions. At least today in history, Final Smile has just started the project to excavate it. It is still just a big pit underground that no one knows about.

The things Batman wanted to use were in that pit. His plan was to sneak into the construction site at night, find Edmund, who was also secretly working on the project alone, and negotiate a deal with him.

Bruce knew something about his ancestor, but not much. He only knew that he liked to keep diaries, write down family events, and also like to explore everywhere.

He is a skilled swordsman, a rainforest explorer, a legendary sailor, a physicist, a construction engineer, a chemist, and a big businessman who runs the global spice business.

Okay, the identity is a bit complicated, but the successive heads of the Wayne family have always been elites of their generation.

This ancestor finally died on a new adventure of ocean voyage. He disappeared with his flagship in a snowstorm near Antarctica at the age of 107. At that time, many people still believed in the great explorer Edmund Wayne.

There will be a day when we return to Gotham Port. Legends will not die so easily.

But in fact, he never came back, so he must have really died.

Of course, these have nothing to do with Batman. He just subconsciously conducts intelligence research and judgment beforehand, because the two of them are strangers to each other, and they must be careful when contacting them.

Also be careful with Diana and Deadpool. Once either of them gets sick and accidentally hurts or kills Edmund, all stories on Earth 16 in the future will be completely rewritten.

In fact, Wonder Woman will not do such a thing, she is not stupid, and Deadpool will not kill people without benefit, he is a mercenary.

But Bat couldn't trust them. Except for Alfred, he couldn't trust anyone, including himself.

It was pitch dark inside the tunnel, and the ground was not smooth, but walking along the minecart track that was still paved was relatively labor-saving, and Wade could even slide carefully on the track.

"Hey~aha~"

He was sliding on the rails with his casters as if on ice, with his hands behind his back, looking professional, but he was still muttering:

"How long do we have to go? The air quality in underground mines has always been a problem. We won't be poisoned by gas, right?"

"This is not a coal mine, where does the gas come from?" Diana replied speechlessly. She found that her boyfriend's cousin was really talkative. She didn't think so before, but maybe he had restrained himself when he was with his cousin?

"But I really smelled a strange smell. Yes, I know I have nasal cancer. I usually can't smell anything, but if you smell it carefully, there is something faint in the air..."

As Wade said this, he deliberately took a few steps away to prevent his scent from affecting their judgment.

"The smell of kerosene." Batman answered. He didn't need Deadpool to avoid it. In fact, he had discovered it long ago: "Around 1850, oil extraction in the United States began. In today's era, kerosene lamps are the main

means of lighting.”

In fact, when carrying out underground engineering, using any fuel for lighting may cause hypoxia for personnel, but due to the limitations of the times, there is basically no other choice.

Solar emergency lights are of course good. They are not only safe but also environmentally friendly, but they are not available in this era.

"Oh, as expected of Batman, he really knows everything." Wade blinked a few times and quickened his pace to follow the two of them. He scratched his butt and asked again: "I found that we are heading towards the area with the strongest kerosene smell.

Go ahead, there’s something over there, right?”

However, the Dark Knight just turned his head and ignored him again.

There is no other way, Deadpool can only continue chatting with the audience in the live broadcast room that does not exist in the air, but now the three lighting tools only have bat headlamps and Diana's mantra lasso, so in the dark environment, they want to bring

It is difficult for everyone to visit the retro caves around them.

Especially when Batman leads the way and everyone turns left and right along the railroad tracks, going up and down.

Although we know that there is only one layer of sewers, it is impossible to excavate only one layer during construction work, because the sewers also need many exits, which are usually used for maintenance and so on.

The atmosphere in the team can be said to be a bit deserted. Even if Deadpool keeps talking and the other two remain silent, this is a lonely march in the dark.

Fortunately, this awkward march only lasted about twenty minutes. Then the three of them saw a bright light at a corner of a tunnel, which was the faint flame of a kerosene lamp. At the same time, they also heard some rustling sounds.

Someone is digging the soil.

At this time, the bat stopped and winked at the two of them, indicating that he would come to negotiate later.

But before he had time to act, someone's voice came from the front, full of surprised questions:

"You? Why did you find this place?!"
