The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman.

Chapter 1279 Greedy Catching Cicadas

And the state of Spider-Man 2099 can only be described as "people without foresight must have near-term worries", and he can't foresee what kind of changes this technology exchange will bring to his world. I don't know if this is good or not. Bad, but the technology brought by Peter directly draws energy from the sun.

Does he have a choice?Actually no.

Of course, the space stations of the rich also have solar energy technology, but it is far from being so efficient and low-cost. The important thing is that the cost is low. Peter, the Iron Man of the universe, spared no effort to lower the cost of Mercury’s solar energy extraction machines, making room for him to study materials science. much money.

As much money is needed to research materials, the Mercury Outpost has to save money, and what is even more frightening is that a certain eastern power not only saves money, but also makes this technology easy to set up and quickly built. When the first game opened up wasteland, they had already speeded through the fifth week, nothing else, the main one was fast.

Of course, all countries on the earth have also embarked on different paths. Some think it should be bigger, some think it should be lighter, some think the sun should dig deeper, and some empathize with other stars.

But in any case, technology has improved through trial and error, and it has become an irresistible delicious meal in the hands of Spiderman 2099, and the cost of the meal is just some space station technology, even if the poor stay With this technology, there is no energy to run.

That being the case, why not exchange it?As for technical barriers or post-maintenance issues, the fire is burning to the brow, who cares about the nose?
In this way, the first step of the multiverse dispatch plan was successfully taken. When Peter Parker introduced Stark and Strange what the plan was, Batman was in Schiller's I said in my heart: "So, you have landed on Mercury, established a series of bases there, and started to extract energy from the sun?"

"What you said is not accurate, we have done more than that." Schiller replied: "Not only have we extracted the energy of the sun, but we have even begun to study the technology of artificial stars. The Andromeda galaxy is a good experimental field. I Did I tell you what happened to them before?"

"It is very unfortunate that this poor galaxy once lost a star. Of course, it has nothing to do with us, it is just a terrible natural disaster, but this does not prevent us from being kind and rebuilding a star for them. "

"Magneto, the best among mutants, is already trying this. They hope that ordinary humans can develop this technology first, and then sell this technology to us in exchange for greater benefits for mutants."

"Can I go to the Mercury base to see?" Batman made a request that was not too much, but Schiller felt a little embarrassed, he could only say to Batman: "Look at their attitude towards me now, like Will you let me go on an adventure on Mercury?"

"So how sick are you?"

"I'm not sick at all."

"Do you believe it yourself?"

"Batman, this is not the time for you to be aggressive." Schiller pointed this out without any scruples: "You are an arrogant friend, but not mine. You should understand why I am called greedy. You go to Mercury Base , is nothing more than greedy for our technology."

"You are very confused about how arrogance brought Gotham back to the sun, and whether this technology can be learned and replicated, but I can tell you that the answer is yes, and the key lies in energy."

"For tens of thousands of years, all the iterations of human development are for energy, more energy, cleaner energy, more controllable energy, and even forever sustainable energy."

There was a madness in the rapacious tone that Batman couldn't understand, not the same as arrogant madness, but equally terrifying.

Batman has already seen Schiller's madness, so he has an irrepressible curiosity about another kind of madness.

If greed is as insane as arrogance, and arrogance can even break a clown, then what can greed and arrogance do?
"What I have done in this world, and the achievement I am most proud of, is to let human beings touch the sun."

"For thousands of years, the sun has been the most beloved planet of human beings. We have written countless romantic poems for him, and thanked it for its gift with incomparable sincerity."

"But human beings have never been a kind and sincere race. These disgusting negative emotions are our origin. Everything we have done today contains our most rooted worries and fears about the sun—if One day, it doesn't light up?"

"Our love for the sun has already turned into hatred and desire to control. We must completely control the sun, let it shine for us, let it shine for us, if it is not bright enough, then change it to shine. "

The arrogance revealed in the greedy tone surprised Batman, and he even felt that greed was the real arrogance.

"One day, we will tell the sun that it did not create us, but we will create it. We will understand the truth of the universe more thoroughly than a naturally formed star, and we will control it thoroughly and deeply. No longer fear any natural disasters in the universe, or let us become a real natural disaster."

Although Schiller was lying on the hospital bed, blinking his eyes constantly, as if he was about to fall asleep, another figure sat beside Batman in the theater. Their way of communicating was completely different from that of Arrogance and Batman. Not communicating, but greed infecting Batman with his madness.

It's amazing how Batman can be infected with another kind of madness.

But the fact is that Batman's profundity and darkness are far from coming to an end, Greedy Schiller is constantly reminding him of this - the so-called darkness is not the control of a certain city or certain groups, but the control of the entire city. The control of all things in the universe and all concepts, the real darkness should be greed.

"Humans once brutally killed gods." Greedy and ups and downs, as if he was drunk, he kept blinking and said: "This is what humans are best at, using something boiling to kill gods." The mystery that exists in the concept, the more it boils, the more cruel it is."

"In my universe, no one has any reverence for the sun anymore, because they all know that it is just a large energy engine. Now, we are extracting energy from it for our own use, and one day , the sun goes out, but we will still go forward."

"Why should we be afraid of something created by coincidence? You and I both know that the birth of all stars in the universe comes from coincidence, and the city you are in is the same."

"Indeed, it is so unfortunate that it has become the source of darkness gathering in the universe, and you were born here so unfortunately, and suffered a series of tragedies, but that is not the end."

"The birth of human beings is also a tragedy. When the soles of the first human beings set foot on the mainland, wild beasts surrounded them, and there were many powerful enemies, but we had no power to restrain the chickens. Compared with those enemies with sharp teeth and claws, we were nothing There is no advantage."

"Then, we started to learn to collect sticks, started to drill wood to make fire, and lit the first fire. What does this mean? It means that we finally control our own destiny, and it means that we have something that other beasts don't have."

"That fire that was lit for the first time, is what you have that no one else has, and it's called—'wisdom.'"

"But you seem to be ashamed of it all the time, and feel like you stole something, and if you don't give back to society in the most explicit and violent way, you look like a complete coward."

"You clearly have the ability to ignite a fire that no one else can ignite in such a deep and dense darkness, so that those damned, so-called curses of destiny will be completely burned, and the gods will cry and tremble. You didn't do it because you weren't greedy enough."

"Batman, Batman..." The greedy voice continued to echo in the theater.

Batman finds that he's always fascinated by Schiller's tone, every word he says, every point he makes, and it shouldn't be because Schiller is the Joker and Batman shouldn't be listening to the Joker say.

"If you have a flaming ambition to burn everything in this world, no matter how thick the darkness is, it will not be able to trap the flames of greed."

"You have to think more, want more, feel that there will never be enough firewood in the fire that is lit in front of you, and then make more firewood."

"Don't think of those criminals as enemies, but as necessary fuel in the flames, whose madness is not as good as their intelligence, so they burn brighter."

"Arrogance has proved to you that this way is feasible. To ask them to burn themselves for you, they are obviously willing to do so..."

"They are obviously willing to follow you, worship you forever, fall in love with you, and regard you as a god forever, but you just left them in the snowy night."

"Don't be so cruel, Batman." Schiller closed his eyes and leaned back on the chair, and said in a gentle and gentle tone: "Don't let these woods burn out in the dark night, let them condense into a bigger flame and burn Through those doomed clouds and darkness."

"How greedy are you that you can't even let a group of mental patients go?" Batman turned his head and stared into greedy eyes and said, "You don't even let yourself go, you even want to burn yourself."

"This is greed!" Greed raised his tone and said, "We are not arrogant to regard everyone as firewood, but we like that kind of flame too much, and we are fascinated and fascinated by it, so we don't care about putting ourselves into it. Everyone strives for a bright future."

"Batman, don't tell me, you are such a coward." Schiller began to chant again, but his tone was completely different from arrogance, he was not indifferent, even full of enthusiasm and passion.

You could hear that he loved everyone, and no one could say such crazy things if it weren't for such a dynamic feeling.

"Because of your shame and sense of morality, you don't dare to let the firewood you left in the dark burn yourself for a greater goal. Arrogant friend, you shouldn't be such a coward."

"You should let them into your heart, into your heart, among those things you most desire. Light a fire, burn yourself, and at the same time dispel the dark clouds over Gotham, let those damn curses, To hell."

"You know what to do, you know that when the clown blows up the chemical plant, some compounds in the bomb can react with chemical materials to create an incomparable chemical agent, you know that he came here for this, And because of this, I was secretly happy, but you just ignored him..."

"You know very well that the ice cubes of Frozen Man can even freeze the sun. You know very well that he is so eager for you to plunge into the sun and let him shoot the star to fall."

"You know that the scarecrow can change the atmosphere of the entire earth, make human beings evolve into stronger creatures, make them have bodies that can absorb oxygen more easily, make their brains move faster, and make everyone an unparalleled genius , you know that he expects you to do this."

"You know that Gotham is not your obstacle, but your treasure house, just like this earth is my treasure house, but you are so cruel and cowardly ignoring their talents, and only treat them as criminals."

"No no no, it's not because you hate them, and it's definitely not because you're kind and moral enough, it's just because you're not ambitious enough—you're not greedy enough."

"That's the only reason arrogance brought you here." Greed took a deep breath and said in a crying tone: "You should have been more greedy than greed, but you acted like a coward and let all greed Weep for it."

"Don't do this, Batman, don't do this, don't destroy the me inside of you, don't lock me up in a small corner of your mind temple, let me cry helplessly and desperately."

"Now, go open the cell door, hug him, embrace what you should have been able to do at his beck and call, love him, become one with him, as you did with arrogance .”

"Don't abandon me so superficially, don't regard me as the original sin like the world knows me, you can agree with arrogance, and you can also agree with me..."

"...you will definitely agree with me!"

As the ravenous voice echoes through the theater, Batman understands that Schiller is not the Joker, he is something else, something saner, something crazier.

If Batman gives a definite answer now, it would be like the countless games he has played with the clown, just like the clown tortured him countless times, Schiller is not the clown itself, but humanity itself.

Schiller represents the side of human nature that can burst out from the bottom of the heart anytime and anywhere, and can't be restricted at all.

How much Batman loves the sun, how many times he has imagined the intoxicating temperature of the sun shining on his body, how much he hates the sun, hates this star that was born only because of luck, and never shines on him.

But greed told him, not Schiller's greed, but his own greed told him that he had the wisdom and the ability to make the sun bow for him, and let the sun be controlled by him.

He wants the sun to shine on Gotham, and the sun has to shine on Gotham, because if it's not bright enough, Batman takes another star.

It's not hard at all, because, well, he's Batman.

What he was ridiculed and criticized by everyone, the principle of only circling around a city, not killing people, and not being ruthless to the end, all eventually came down to a flirtatious sentence, he is not greedy enough.

It's all because his ambition is not big enough, he doesn't want enough, he can't release the greed imprisoned in the corner of his heart that the world considers to be the original sin like Schiller.

In the theater, Batman turned his head and saw not Schiller's greed, but another himself.

That represented a terrible greed he had never lost, but never indulged.
