When the Super British Ruled the Earth[British and American]

Oh, I have suffered so much, will you give me the future in children's books as a reward?

— Rimbaud

Rainy weather.

Researcher Yade hurried past the pedestrian crossing with a black umbrella. At the intersection, a round robot like a white balloon was patrolling left and right.

Even though he knew it was useless, Yade still buried his face in the collar as much as possible, and he lowered the umbrella, as if he wanted to get away with the crackling rain and the sound of passing vehicles.However, the round robot's small blue square eyes turned to Yad.

"It's really rude," Yade had to stop in the middle of the road, and the robot was turning around to scan, Yade complained, "Your batch number was developed by our research institute."

The white ball floated back and forth indifferently, scanning him all over, and then beeped twice, signaling for Yade to leave.

Just as Yade was about to take a step, a convertible car sped past in front of him, stirring up water on the ground, and he and the robot were drenched in water.The car went away, and the shrill laughter of the people in the car could still be heard.

"What a beautiful day," Yad muttered.

Yade came to the research institute on the southwest side of the city, on the second floor of No.30, a high-rise building.This is the cheapest floor, because outside the window are the two 'light paths' of flying cars. The capital Capitol has gathered the most flying cars in the entire kingdom, and even the glass will tremble when they roar past.

This is the place of scientists in this kingdom.The aristocratic nobles can enjoy the convenience of science and resources, but the great majesty is only willing to use the most economical and remote places as the 'base camp' of researchers.More than 60 scientists and more than [-] laboratory apprentices and researchers in the entire kingdom are crowded in this building, making each other's companions, and there is a kind of peace of companionship in bitterness.

As the oldest and most powerful planet in the universe, the country of Panam ruled the entire universe based on the technology of its ancestors, and they enjoyed endless resources.

Those who roll in the grain will not understand the importance of the farmer.Scientific researchers have become the least important people in this country.If it is said in this way, it seems to be grateful to His Majesty the King for giving them this little place in the research and development of urban machines.

Yade put the umbrella and wet coat on the shoe rack outside the house, changed into a white coat before entering the house.

"Sorry, I'm late." Yade complained as he changed his shoes in the lounge, "How much time is left for this year's rainy season to end?"

"The rainy season has just begun, Mr. Yade." An apprentice nicknamed Xiaoli came over, he hung up Yade's coat, and then smiled, "You still hate rainy days so much."

Yad does hate rainy days.This sticky, wet, seemingly endless rainy season is like the country itself.He hated all this, but he dared not say it, because of his special status, the robots in the Kingdom closely guarded against scientists and some professional workers who were 'easy to restless'.

Yade and Xiaoli walked into the laboratory, where a white-haired scientist was debugging indicators in front of the virtual screen.

"Mr. Balfe." Yad said respectfully.

The old scientist raised his head and nodded slightly to them.

"Thank you, Yade." His eyes fell on the document bag in Yade's hand, "The weather is really humid today."

"That's right, Professor." Yard took out a book from his file bag and handed it to Professor Balfe, "I thought of an idea that could make the window-cleaning robot more intelligent when I was sleeping last night. Small help to clean up our kingdom."

"Of course, I'd love to hear your thoughts," said Professor Balfe.

While chatting, Professor Balfe quietly modified the permissions.After the permissions have been modified, the research institute is safe.All three breathed a sigh of relief.

How arrogant to use the robots developed by scientists to monitor scientists.

"Damn rain," Yad grumbled.

"One day it will be sunny." Xiao Li comforted him.

Professor Balfe took the book that Yard had brought. In this brochure praising the prosperity of the capital, there was a book that didn't fit the temperament of the three of them in white coats—it was a cartoon.

"What is it this time, the Spider-Man special issue or the main story of Captain America?" Xiao Li asked curiously.

"It's a joint issue of Batman and Superman. Wait a little longer, Xiaoli. I can't lend it to you until we complete the reorganization."

The old professor clicked on the virtual keyboard, and the ordinary desks, chairs, appliances, and parts in the research institute flew up one after another. They were transformed into elements, and finally reorganized to become a huge experimental vessel.

Professor Balfe opened the comic book and scanned the comics page by page with a device similar to a razor.

"I still don't understand why you and other scientists chose comics as the research subject." Xiao Li said, "It must be because the initiators especially like to read comics."

Both Yard and Professor Balfe laughed.

The robots who check scientists every day would not imagine that the biggest secret is hidden in the comics.Yade's smile gradually faded, he thought, even if this country can have a hero, maybe everything will be...

"The data has been retrieved." At this moment, Professor Balfe said happily, "It seems that Leiber is making great progress."

All three of them looked into the glass jar, and a ball of light was gradually emerging.Slowly, the sphere stabilized, the light faded, and a blue sphere was suspended in the vessel.

Yade and Xiaoli inhaled lightly, staring at the blue ball. "Sir, is this..."

"Yes, this is the ocean," Balfe said. "We may have a glimmer of success."

Yade took out his glasses, and the distance on the lenses was automatically adjusted.When zoomed in to a certain extent, Yade saw the vast ocean, the sea water was cool and clear, it seemed that just looking at the surging ocean, he could imagine the feeling of sunny and warm sunshine shining on the sea.

"We have successfully discovered bacteria on this planet before, so as long as life can appear in the sea, maybe we will really create a small planet!" Xiao Li said excitedly.

The feat of creating a planet is studied by different scientists in different groups, each of which is responsible for a different direction, and finally the comics pass on the news, so as to perceive each other's progress.

It was another tense and busy few hours. In order to prevent the robot from finding out that something was wrong, they had to make a quick decision.

The utensils were decomposed into common objects in the research room again, and Xiao Li took the comics and went to the lounge with relish, leaving Balfe and Yade still in the research room.Yade was very excited. For a scientific researcher, this is a major technological advancement, which is enough to shock the entire universe.

But Yard saw that Professor Balfe was still calm, as if he was thinking about something seriously.

"What's the matter, Professor?" said Yard. "Is there something wrong?"

Professor Balfe regained his senses in a trance, he took off the lens and wiped it lightly, then sighed.

"No, it's okay," he murmured, "I was just wondering... are we doing the right thing?"

Yard mistakenly thought that the old man was anxious about this rebellious matter, and he said comfortingly and encouragingly, "You said that scientists will not stop the spirit of scientific research and exploration because of a fatuous king."

Balfe smiled slightly.

"Well said, Mr. Yard." He picked up his things and looked at Yard mischievously, "Don't forget to improve the window cleaning robot."

With Yard complaining and sighing, Professor Balfe took off his white coat and came to the lounge to change his coat and shoes.

"See you tomorrow, sir."

"See you tomorrow, Xiaoli."

Professor Balfe shook his head helplessly when he saw that Xiaoli was looking at the comics hungrily.If the boy reads professional books with this kind of focus, maybe there will be one more scientist now.

Balfe walked out of the lounge.Different from the scientific research room that they took care of neatly, the corridor outside was dirty and dusty, and there were some paintings and spray paints left by the avant-garde waves on the walls.It seems that the concentration of scientists, which is synonymous with old-fashioned pronouns, can even arouse the rebellion of these noble boys.

The old professor was waiting for the elevator beside the elevator, and the light bulb above his head kept flashing, turning on and off from time to time.This year's maintenance has been notified twice, but it has still not been approved.

Professor Balfe sighed softly.At this moment, he suddenly felt powerless to do anything in this kingdom.There are so many good things to do in this country, why did he choose scientific research?Suddenly, he thought of the little water polo again, which made him both relieved and worried.

"Good afternoon, Professor Balfe."

Balfe turned his head, and he saw another old professor from the research institute at the other end of the corridor.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Leiber."

The two waited side by side for the elevator, and Yade had just delivered the scientific research progress between the two of them through comics, but at this moment, the two professors were chatting casually as if they just met today.Because the monitor is right above their heads.

After leaving the building, the two went to different places and left.

In the middle of the night, Mr. Leiber enjoyed a cup of hot tea and made a video call with his adopted daughter who was in college. Then he changed into his pajamas and lay down on the bed.Under the quilt, Leiber turned on the shielding device. From now on, the detector outside the house can only see an old man sleeping soundly on his bed.

On this side, Leiber immediately got up, and he tapped the fireplace in front of the bed, suddenly a gap opened from the wall, revealing Mr. Balfe's face.Balfe was teleported directly from behind his own fireplace, and he was also wearing pajamas at the moment.The two scientists hugged, and Leiber motioned for him to come over.

"About that newborn planet," Leiber said, "Actually, I'm a little ahead of schedule, but I didn't dare to tell you through the hands of others..."

The indoor furniture was reorganized into utensils, and Leiber handed Balfe a pair of glasses.

Balfe adjusted the distance. Immediately afterwards, he widened his eyes—he saw that the water planet was still a sphere in the afternoon, and now there was land. Primitive amphibians and reptiles were running around in the primeval forest.

"Stanley, this..." Balfe murmured, "This planet is moving so fast, then..."

"At most one month, it can develop for [-] million years." Leiber said, "We are likely to welcome high-intelligence creatures before the end of the rainy season."

He stretched out his hand and held Balfe's hand tightly, the palms of both scientists were sweating.

"We have really developed a three-dimensional planet, an autonomous cosmic life system." Leiber said tremblingly.

"Then we can start from the fifth dimension and take a look at the future of this planet." Balfe suppressed his excitement, he said, "Don't you want to know what the future of this planet looks like? No... no, it's still a newborn , it's too fragile...maybe it doesn't even have a timeline yet. It needs to be cared for."

Leiber nodded and said with emotion, "Even though our lives are so dark and boring, new life always brings joy."

"But Blue Star's species are evolving so fast, we must immediately plan for the future." Balfe said, "We'd better gather other colleagues and make a decision... When do we want to introduce the world's foundation setting? Or Let it go..."

"This really needs to be discussed and discussed."

However, reality did not give them much time.

Less than a month later, the king's personal guards began to lead the robots to reorganize the capital. It is said that His Majesty the King saw the 'common manga' from his nephew. His Majesty the King was furious, and he believed that the content of superheroes fighting bad guys was mirroring him.What's even more frightening is that these kinds of comics are more prevalent the farther away from the capital, and civilians who have been exploited and guarded can only read this kind of books for entertainment.

Most importantly, the scientists saw that the robot army had banned all the libraries in the capital. It seemed that in order to strengthen the rule, the nobles and the king were determined to keep the bottom people away from books and culture.Even the capital is like this, one can imagine how bleak the rest of the kingdom is.

This was just the beginning. After a few days, robot soldiers captured some novelists and cartoonists.

In fact, Yade came to work in the institute as usual.Along the way, he was interrogated more times, as were other ordinary workers living in the capital. Only the nobleman's car was still speeding on the road as in the past.

When Yade came to the institute, he obviously felt that something was wrong.Mr. Balfe activated the jammer prematurely without waiting for him to arrive.

Xiao Li paced nervously in the lounge, and immediately greeted him when he saw him.

"Professor Balfe is arguing with Leiber." He whispered, "I don't have enough authority, Mr. Yard, go and persuade them."

Yade entered the research room, and sure enough, two old professors were quarreling in low voices.

"...For your own good, you must leave now!" Balfe said.

"Leave?" Leiber smiled, "Where can we go if we leave? Oh, good morning, Mr. Yard."

"Good morning," said Yad.He took a few steps cautiously, looked at his boss, "Mr. Balfe...?"

"Good morning, Yad." Balfe said angrily, "You persuade this old stubborn, now that the capital is so strict, he must leave."

Yade is a little puzzled. Now the capital is arresting authors and cartoonists. Scientists are not being remembered because they have been reduced to the level of machine repairers.If the blue star is discovered, it should not be such an atmosphere, so why...

Wait, cartoonist?

Yade's gaze involuntarily fell on a comic book in the corner.It was a Spider-Man comic that famously co-wrote Steve Ditko and Stan Lee.

...Stan Lee?

Yade shuddered, and he looked at Leiber in disbelief.

Professor Stanley Leiber? ?

"I must have some hobbies." Professor Leiber shrugged.

"You have to leave." Balfe said.

"No need." Professor Leiber said, "They are arresting novelists and cartoonists now, and teachers will be arrested next, and scientists will not be let go in the end. Now that this is the case, why don't we continue the current project Woolen cloth?"

"You mean..." Balfe frowned slowly.

Between the two older professors, Yard cleared his throat, well, it looks like he's been left with a lot of work.

In fact, the rapid development of Blue Star in this month's time has long exceeded the [-] million years they originally imagined.Calculated according to time, [-] million years have passed on the blue star, but the creatures with high IQ have never been seen, and there is a tendency that the species is about to be destroyed.

In fact, the failure of Blue Star's experiment is just around the corner.Scientists let the blue star develop itself, but the blue star seems to have no biological soul and cannot reproduce.So, the two professors decided to use the original plan: they want to help from a high-dimensional perspective-they want to use the superhero series in comics as the foundation of this world.

The reason why scientists chose superheroes is because among the many novels and comics, the setting of the superhero world is the most complicated and the comic universe is the most extensive.Perhaps novels have been supervised decades ago, so talented novelists turned into screenwriters, and also invested in unpopular "children's comics".Therefore, only the superhero world view created by countless cartoonists and novelists for decades is the most comprehensive, enough to support a world.

Moreover, countless superheroes themselves will bring hope to mankind.This is what scientists want to do. They want to use it to guide their fellow men to think about progress, otherwise they will always meet the day of destruction.

"And we can send all the precious materials to the people on that planet." Balfe said coldly, "It's better than being destroyed here."

"But, but how to do this?" Yade stammered, "Even if we have the ability to create a small planet, we already have the ability to recast material elements, but we and Blue Star have different dimensions. Same, how can you talk about doing these things all of a sudden?"

Balfe didn't speak, he turned to look at Professor Leiber.

Liber looked up, and he blinked.

"Professor Stanley Leiber can't do it, but Stan Lee can do it." He said, "There is nothing in this world that cartoonists and scientists can't do."

In fact, he did.

Professor Leiber found a 'link' between the laboratory and Blue Star, just like an advanced version of object disassembly and reassembly or transmission of files, they sent the superhero comics world and timeline to that planet in the form of virtual data.But this is not enough, the high-dimensional data cannot react with the three-dimensional planet.In this most important step, Stanley Leiber used the most amazing method after his 340 years of scientific research career.

——This is the secret hidden by the scientists. As long as Professor Leiber is around, the planet will definitely be able to come alive.

Leiber reduced the dimensionality and fused the data that hides a complete world, and finally, at the moment when the data was successfully transferred to a three-dimensional existence, it caused turmoil on this half-year-old three-dimensional planet.

Meteorites fell from the sky, the sea was overwhelming like beasts, and volcanic eruptions spread.

The primordial organisms that have repeated the ups and downs for a whole "[-] million years" were buried in the scorched earth of Blue Star in the blow of dimensionality reduction.

On the scorched earth, 970 billion years later, the continent will usher in a species with high intelligence that will rule the entire planet.They will make mistakes, take detours, and encounter setbacks in their development, but there will always be hope—because with the tribulations and setbacks, superheroes are about to be born among ordinary people.

When the manga is set to develop into a real species of life based on the foundation of the world, the vitality of the blue star awakens the vitality of its universe, and a low-latitude parallel universe spreads and grows like a spark igniting a grassland.

In the high-dimensional afternoon a month later, the scientists who participated in this study gathered together with relief, and they created a miracle, even for their dimension.

When watching Iron Man fly over the city with a magnifying glass, and the mutant children were born, a slight light ignited in the hearts of the researchers—there is no hope in this world, but there is in comic books.

So, they worked so hard to turn the manga into an alternate reality.If people in the whole kingdom can watch the heroes on the blue star, and another way of life... Will there be enlightenment for the buried talents, and will it give strength to some desperate people?

They need hope.

They need heroes.

There was a dull pain in the knee, and a sharp pain in the left side of the face in the next second. Professor Balfe fell on the soft carpet in a whirl.

"Your Majesty is asking you something, you rude commoner, how dare you neglect him!" An angry voice came.

Following the sound of his colleagues gasping for air, Professor Balfe came back to his senses.At this moment, the top scientific researchers in the Kingdom are kneeling in His Majesty's office.

He braced himself as best he could, with his head down, his mind blank.

The king's personal guards caught the scientists involved in this matter. Now, His Majesty reclined on the sofa, staring at the projection of the blue star universe with a gloomy expression.

They bring superheroes to life in order to give some hope and inspiration to people in this world.But this is absolutely impossible to say, as long as you speak, all the researchers in the room will lose their heads.Nobody doubts how ruthless a king can be when his executions are broadcast live as a fun show.But the old professor really can't think of any excuses...

"Your Majesty, this is the gift we want to give to His Majesty for his [-]th birthday." At this moment, he heard Xiaoli say, "As you know, there are with life..."

"Yes." His Majesty stroked his white beard and said lazily.

This made Xiaoli's voice firm. "This three-dimensional planet originated from our hands, and naturally it is also your people, so we dedicate it to you...to amuse you. Moreover, it can also be used to collect money from commoners and nobles..."

"Oh?" His Majesty became interested.

The staff next to him were afraid that Xiaoli would be rewarded, so he had a quick thought, and suddenly understood some things.

"The three-dimensional world...Since this is the case, people all over the country can watch this world on the terminal!" The staff said with a smile, "Nobles have different tastes and tastes, so the vastness of billions of human beings is enough to relieve boredom, Your Majesty... we You can sell them the plot fragments they want, and choose the timeline at will... There must be a lot of people willing to buy. As for the poor, since they can't stop their desires, it's better to use entertainment to enrich their spare time. Give them virtual hope...that way you will forget the bleakness of life!"

The old scientists were stunned. They really wanted to make Blue Star public in the whole kingdom, but they never thought it would be in this way.

No one blames Xiaoli, he was the one who saved Lan Xing and everyone, but...

Superheroes quickly became popular all over the planet.

People on this planet live too depressively, and the nobles feel that their lives are boring. They can all find their preferences in the low-dimensional world.The stories of Captain America, Iron Man, Spiderman, Superman, Batman, etc. have become known to everyone. Movies and comics have been adapted into relaxed and interesting ones, and spread among the people at the bottom.They are more virtual stars than heroes.

Blue Star's three-dimensional people can't defy time, but they can flip through Blue Star's timeline at will in a five-dimensional way.The wealthier class is willing to pay for the daily privacy of the heroes, which gives them the pleasure of spying on the idols. At this time, the person in charge will take what the buyer wants, just like pulling a book from the shelf. The timeline of the timeline was sent to him.

And the nobles' requests are all kinds of strange. Some nobles who are curious in heart even collect the murder and crime scene fragments in that world, which will make them relish.

However, they are soon not satisfied... Having control of a planet, they want the entire lower-dimensional universe.Watching the life of low-dimensional people, the emperor began to want to intervene in Lan Xing to become a real god.

But no one could open the chains of that world, as if the entire universe was hidden, except for a single blue star, no matter how hard the emperor's staff racked their brains, there was no way to intervene.

Scientists and cartoonists who participated in this matter were silent about it, and the entire 32nd floor was stained with blood. No participant was willing to give hope to the empire, even at the cost of death.

In the end, only one person was still standing in front of His Majesty.

"I knew from the very beginning that you were the most important person, so I left you alone." His Majesty said coldly, "Tell me, how can I open the connection between the two worlds? If you don't tell me..."

"You just killed me?" Leiber sneered.

"Your adopted daughter is still in the Royal Hospital." His Majesty said kindly, "Last time I disabled her, this time I can kill her in front of you."

Leiber paused, his throat clenched, and after a while, he reluctantly opened his mouth, "It's not that I don't want to, it's just that the world has completed the original plot, and the future belongs to them completely, and I can't hinder it." .for example……"

"for example?"

Leiber turned his head, and the wide wall of His Majesty's office was reflecting the live broadcast of the Superhero mainline from another world. It seemed that His Majesty had chosen the Avengers as the protagonist.

The plot is unfolding to the last issue of the Avengers comics before being confiscated. The Avengers and the Guardians of the Galaxy jointly resist Thanos and get the Infinity Stone.Thor fell from the sky, and struck Thanos' chest with an axe.

"You should cut off my head," Thanos said.

"Like, I don't know where they go when they die," Stanley Leiber said.

In the video, Thanos snapped his fingers, and superheroes all over the world disappeared in smoke.
