American Comics: Opening Guidance Batman

"It looks like they are angry now." Cobert sneered, he looked at the heavy rain outside the window, and Schiller said to him: "I think you should already know that there are many people from Gordon who are similar to your original condition. Of the patients, your illnesses should all be related to the rain."

"In mental illness, it's hard to have two cases with exactly the same traits, but now there are more than two," Schiller said, shaking his head.

"We are discussing how to deal with it. The current drainage situation in Gotham is not optimistic. If this continues, there will be floods tonight."

Batman's voice was accompanied by the sound of rain, and suddenly, the room lit up, and the flashing light turned everything into pale white, and then a roar of thunder came from a distance, and all three looked out the window.

Schiller looked at Batman and said, "I still have a bunch of patients, I don't want to meddle in this business..."

Batman stared at him, as if he didn't care about his excuses, as if he was certain that Schiller must have something to say, and sure enough, Schiller continued: "But they made me pay a lot of money to buy one that was destined to be. Bad, poor quality umbrellas, and then it rained so hard when I didn't have any..."

The rain outside the window was getting heavier and heavier, and the roaring thunder overwhelmed the sound of conversations in the house. Nearer to the sky, Gotham University seemed to be shrouded in a dark fog, only one office was lit. And it's noisy inside.

"Are you sure that this distance can lead all the rain in this area to the specified height?"

"Look here... We have to pay attention to the water pressure here, if the support structure is not replenished, it is very likely to cause a total collapse of the underground waterway..."

"Directed blasting is required here, yes, I'm sure..."

The professors were all around their desks, and you discussed each and every word. On the surface, they were discussing how to solve the problem of too much surface water in Gotham City.

The average person can't last for three minutes in this kind of discussion, because they open and close their mouths are a lot of engineering and mechanical terms, and those who can listen are dizzy.

But in fact, this is not some small talk on paper. One after another, nouns related to blasting engineering popped out of their mouths. Obviously, this is another Gotham-style discussion.

In the Gotham Police Department, Gordon, who had just dealt with some delirious criminals, took a cup of hot coffee from the young police officer, raised his arms, drank the coffee, went to the desk and sat down. Next, just as I was about to rest for a while, I found that a shadow appeared behind me.

Gordon looked back, he sighed and said, "Batman, you don't have to make your entrance ceremony so scary every time."

"I need your help, Detective Gordon."

Gordon didn't answer, he was listening to Batman talking, Batman continued on his own: "Next, I'll be lighting up bat lanterns in several locations in Gotham City, and then the gang's engineering team will come in. , start digging, and you need to send people out there to keep them safe."

Gordon opened his mouth, but he couldn't answer for a while. He said, "You mean, let the police station dispatch people to protect the safety of the gang?"

He turned around, stretched out his hand, and said to Batman, "Okay, if you're dealing with that mysterious organization and you need our cooperation, then I can understand, but are you sure that the gang needs our protection?"

Batman's tone was serious, he said: "This is to prepare for a possible surprise attack, and the heavy firepower of the police is necessary."

"Can you tell me the plan? I must be responsible for the safety of my subordinates."

Batman shook his head and said, "Remember that nursery rhyme? 'The Court of Owls, keep watch on your travels...'"

Gordon felt a chill behind his back, and he instinctively looked around his office, but he couldn't refute Batman. If the mysterious power was involved, Gordon couldn't say with certainty that he must not be under surveillance.

"I can assure you that the plan is working."

Gordon looked at him, and finally, Batman said, "Because I'm Batman."

The dark clouds began to thicken, and the raindrops fell to the ground with ten thousand force. The rain was urgent and heavy, but in the midst of the continuous downpour, a slight humming came, followed by , several blinding lights blazed from Gotham City.

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the ward of the Arkham Asylum, Schiller saw several bat patterns projected into the dark night sky.

In the mighty spring thunder, the still bat lights seemed to come alive in the refraction of the rain line, and became like a petrel soaring in the wind and rain, with the amazing momentum of breaking through the darkness.

Before that, the noisy rain had almost blocked all sounds, and the dark clouds had swallowed all the lights. This huge city seemed to be packed into an aquarium, sinking under the icy water and continuing to sink into the abyss.

At the moment when the bat lamp was lit, Gotham, which was submerged by the heavy rain, suddenly came to life, just like a drowning man, suddenly transformed into a giant whale who was not afraid of ocean currents and waves, the boiling voice shattered the darkness, and the lights were like flames In the same way, igniting something that cannot be burned in the water, the bubbles rise, break through the condensed water surface, and there are countless ripples.

In the rainy night with dark tides, the blasting fire was louder than the thunder, and several engineering teams drove all kinds of engineering machines, roaring forward, the lights of the truck fleet split the rain curtain like a blade, and the whistle sounded like a sharp kettle Tweets, indicating the boiling of this night.

Shouting, shouting, chaotic shouting, gangsters calling friends, more chaotic than chaos, more mad than mad, blasting rocks, smashing the ground, digging down where the beams rise, until they open up on the city ground. Out of several artificial abyss.

They are fearless, they don't care about rain like arrows, wind like knives, madness is Gotham's poison and their armor.

As more structures were built, the rain that fell from the sky and fell into Gotham's ground began to be artificially guided to flow underground.

Cobot stood on the roof of the living hell, watching the fire rise in the rainy night. He didn't hold an umbrella, and he didn't care. His deeply sunken eyes were full of madness. He sneered and said to himself: " You mice, you will never understand that Gotham is Gotham, and it will only be Gotham..."

The accumulated water on the surface of Gotham began to be channeled into the ground, and in a dark conference room somewhere underground in Gotham, the person wearing a white bird-shaped mask sneered disdainfully.

"They may just be saving themselves, after all, idiots have some brains." A woman wearing a mask said mockingly. Valley room

"Is it a bit too risky for us to start the water source plan so early? We have been preparing for this for many years, and even transformed the sewers from the beginning of the city's construction..." Another slightly younger voice asked.

"They have already discovered us, and they still use such despicable means to deal with us, we must make these people pay the price! How dare they..."

Everyone made angry noises, and then quieted down together, as if recalling the scene of that day, and had to suppress the urge to nausea in nausea.

"We can't give up Gotham," an old voice said. "The retreat and transfer are only temporary. We've been operating here for too long, and it's impossible to let this all go."

"This is our most secret stronghold." The woman said, "As long as they can't find us, even if the monster goes mad on the ground, it has nothing to do with us."

After she finished speaking, she turned her head to a man beside her and said, "Go check our sealing device again, don't let the rainwater leak in."

"They may be trying to get the rainwater to drain into the ocean through the groundwater system, but that's simply not going to happen, the sewer system doesn't drain that fast, and Gotham will eventually be flooded."

"And after this rain, chaos will seep into every corner of Gotham, just like it happened ten years ago."

"The owl will always watch here, fear, scream, that will be our food..."

In the dark conference room, there were bursts of snickering like birdsong, like a night owl croaking in the woods.

The heavy rain continued, and more and more water was introduced into the ground, and the speed of introduction became slower and slower. Gordon stood next to the fence of one of the construction sites and shouted: "The sewer system has reached its limit! Now the entire Gotham underground It must have been rain."

Brock was sitting on his motorcycle, flashing a flashlight in this direction, the blinding light made Gordon cover his eyes with his arm, he heard Brock shouting: "They said things are set up!! Get people to evacuate. !!"

Gordon turned back and waved his arms and shouted: "Everyone is ready to evacuate! All to the high-rise buildings!"

Then, he picked up the phone and said to the other side: "District 5! Did the person in charge of District 5 hear? What's going on with you? Has everyone left the first and second floors?!"

"Didn't you tell them this is what the godfather meant?! How many times have you told them to evacuate?! Do you want Falcone to call them and talk to them in person?"

Bullock held the umbrella and said loudly, "We can only hope that this method they came up with really works, otherwise Gotham will really be submerged."

Gordon hung up and said, "We have to trust Batman, and we have to trust him!"

Soon, in the Gotham building, the lights on the upper floors began to gradually light up, while the lights on the lower floors continued to go out, and everyone moved to a higher place.

Members of the Court of Owls, who got the news from the surveillance equipment, dismissed it, and in their view it was nothing more than a delay, the flood would eventually overwhelm everything, and it didn't matter how high you hid.

But soon, they stopped laughing.

The members of the Court of Owls sitting in the dark conference room suddenly felt that a violent cold wind swept across the entire stronghold. This ice storm exploded directly from the point of occurrence and swept through every corner of Gotham underground in an instant.

The turbulent rain was condensed into ice, and when the raindrops fell from the sky, the splashes were frozen into crystal clear ice crystals.

Seen from above Gotham, a huge snowflake bloomed from a small generating device. Almost instantly, all the liquids on Gotham's ground and surface condensed, as if time had stopped.

Then, several generating devices were launched into the sky and burst open on the clouds. The accumulated water in the clouds was also condensed into ice, which broke during the fall, and turned into ice cubes when they hit the ground.

Between the dark clouds condensed over Gotham, a low temperature zone formed by layers of cold currents shrouded, and the falling rain directly turned into fluttering snowflakes.

In just a few minutes, the entire sky above and underground of Gotham City was completely frozen, and the whole city seemed to have been pressed the pause button. Not only was the aquarium frozen, but the hands that reached out to catch the fish were also frozen. Did not escape.

The hardness of the ice layer produced by the freezing generator is no less than that of the rock layer. Thousands of meters of ice layer have condensed around the owl stronghold, and everyone is directly frozen in a huge solid ice block.

"Is this something Victor Fries made?" Batman asked Schiller in the ward of the Arkham Psychiatric Hospital ~www.NovelMTL.com~.

"You have to respect your professor, don't call him by his full name, and even if you ask, I can guess that you have prepared hundreds of plans to deal with him."

"The one who can freeze Gotham..." Batman whispered to himself.

"Actually, freezing can't solve the real rain cloud." Schiller shook his head and said, "The fact that the freezing generator is so effective means that the rain cloud that accumulates rain has indeed been manipulated."

"Okay, don't worry about your anti-freeze Gotham plans, I think you should be able to see some truth..."

"what?"

Batman saw that Schiller walked to the window and stopped by the floor-to-ceiling window. He stared at the cold night outside the window, the cold light of the ice and snow reflected on his face, Schiller said lightly:

"No one wants to rain when I don't have an umbrella."
