Chapter 1710 S Apocalypse Event (4)
Gotham is free—physically, practically, and nobody can refute or refute it.
But one can imagine the chaos that would ensue if a megacity on the East Coast of the United States disappeared out of thin air.
If you change the city, the chaos will definitely happen more inside the city. Although the people outside are busy and anxious, it is useless, but this is Gotham after all, and Gotham people are not in a hurry.
While many ordinary Gotham citizens who didn't vote were a little surprised to see themselves flying up to the sun's shoulders, the first thing they did after the initial shock was open Google Maps and laugh at their map Information update is too slow.
Compared with the tragedy unfolding in such a dark city, it is not unacceptable for the whole city to fly into the sky, even if they are about to fall down and die in the next second, at least they can still get away with it because of this absurd fact and imagining others. And the fuss is more fun for a second.
It's not that there will be less chaos when they live on the ground, at least this time, there will be a large group of people who will suffer from the chaos with them. Based on this alone, Gotham people will laugh tonight in their dreams.
So the biggest victim of Gotham Flying to the Sky is not the people of Gotham, nor even the federal government. God knows how long those politicians have been thinking about making this city that has raised the crime rate across the country disappear.
Gotham people can have the status of the coolest city in the world, the federal government no longer has to worry about the fact that the crime rate in the United States has room to rise, and Gotham's neighbors no longer have to worry about lunatics rushing out of the city or being killed by brothers. Tan's outrageous climate pollution can be called a happy event.
In this way, it is a good thing that Gotham is physically independent, but the biggest victim of this is actually the Court of Owls.
And to talk about the Owl Court in detail, you have to mention the famous metal event in DC comics and its antecedents, that is, how the Batriders of the Dark Multiverse came to the main universe.
The chief culprit in this matter is the Owl Court, or a group of Barbatos believers called Judas believers who manipulate the Owl Court behind it.
DC comics used a long space to pave the way for the metal event, the prospect is too complicated, but anyway, Batman in the main universe learned of the existence of metal for various reasons, and then began to investigate, but in fact all this is from the court of owls The conspiracy is to lure Batman to the base of the Court of Owls, and then use his blood to open the door to the dark multiverse to complete Barbatos' plan to invade the multiverse.
In another comic, Batman was also lured into the Owl Base, trapped in a huge maze, unable to escape.
The point of this story is that the Court of Owls took a long time to create a huge maze underground in Gotham, which can even make Batman get lost in it to a certain extent, which shows the large amount of engineering and the magnificent construction results.
Of course, to make Batman capsize in the gutter, it must be concealed enough. In fact, the way to maximize the concealment effect of an underground maze is to build it as deep as possible.
Because not only physical power but also mystical factors were used to dig this maze, the base of the Owl Court was built very deep underground, and it was quite solid. After so many generations of resources invested, this maze can be called It is unbreakable and indestructible.
As a result, the entire city of Gotham didn't take it with it when it took off, because it was a bit too deep and too heavy, and the activation circle made by the lunatics couldn't pull it at all.
But Gotham took away the maze's ceiling.
It is taken away in a physical sense. The take-off Gotham directly lifted the skull of the huge labyrinth that the owl has spent so much effort on. down.
This has led to a very embarrassing situation that the Court of Owls is now facing: most of the members of the Court of Owls, that is, the old nobles of Gotham, were active in the city when Gotham took off.
And those owl councils, that is, Judas believers and some owl priests, all stayed in the underground labyrinth.
When the news of Gotham's disappearance spread throughout the world, even if the federal government and the FBI wanted to set off firecrackers to celebrate each other's departure in private, they still had to do face-saving projects.
Faced with such a major event as the sudden disappearance of a city, of course the FBI, the Guard, the Navy, the Army, and the Air Force joined forces, and it didn't take long to surround the original land of Gotham.
If at this time, an open-air underground labyrinth suddenly appeared in a place where there should be nothing, there are still a group of sneaky, mischievous, and bad-looking people who are indulging in their own shock and will not move. , who else can the people of the federal government pin the blame on?
Anyway, they are just trying to give the public an explanation to quell the panic of public opinion. Since the people below look so much like a cult, then he is not a cult, but he is a cult. They must be the ones who wiped out the city. They must arrest the reporters. That's right.
And because the owls underground were completely immersed in the shock of the huge city disappearing above their heads, they reacted too slowly to the capture of the federal government. There are indeed enough people, the army is fully armed, and the dozen or so sharp claws left in the ground can't turn waves at all.
After a lot of fighting, dozens of them were caught alive, and the others either died or ran away.
After all, the term "open-air underground maze" sounds absurd. Now, if you want to find out the situation in Gotham, you don't even need an airplane. Standing on the ground with the intact street sign at the entrance of Gotham City, you can directly understand the structure of the entire maze. It can be seen clearly, it is a bit like a transparent ruler with a maze and small metal steel balls inside, even a fool can use exhaustive methods to understand it.
When the time comes, Batman will come to take a look, hey, the fully transparent maze, you guys will use this to test your genius?
Therefore, some of the remaining Judah believers with some ability knew that there was nothing to do, so they could only escape and hide first, so as to prevent being arrested by the federal government and falling into the hands of that stupid woman, Amanda.
But the members of the Court of Owls who remained in the city were not lucky enough to go anywhere.
Of course they recognize that the dark force that sent Gotham to the sky and now keeps the city running normally comes from the metal they have buried for generations, but there is a problem, the wires and electricity are all in the sky, but the main control room and batteries are left on the ground Well, what should I do if there is no electricity?
The lunatics in Gotham took a giant city to the sky on a whim with their genius wisdom and enough courage. They didn't think about how long this energy would last and what to do if there was no energy and it fell, or They don't care if they fall or not, it's pretty cool to die that way, isn't it?
But the members of the Owl Court are different from them. As I said before, most of the members of the Owl Court in Gotham are either rich or expensive. Some are extremely successful businessmen, and some have been deeply involved in Gotham for many years. They are all in the city themselves.
If Gotham just fell like this, everything they own and their own lives will be wiped out, and they will be damned if they are not afraid.
People who have nothing are not afraid of death, they will try their best to find some fun for themselves in the gap between life and death, but the more they have, the more scruples they will have. Taking a step back, the plan of the God of Darkness will not succeed now So, wouldn’t the eternal life and strength promised to them by the Judah believers be gone?
The vast majority of owls except Judas believers have no piety to the God of Darkness. The birth of the Owl Court is only because the believers of Barbatos promised many benefits to this group of celebrities. What could be better than ruling a country for a long time? In the city, is it more tempting to make your family noble forever?
But they also know very well that if Gotham falls now, everything they built in this city will be smashed to pieces, all their existing descendants will die, and the family will disappear forever , they don't want Gotham to fall even more than those lunatics.
Thus, an absurd but very reasonable situation happened-members of the Owl Court approached these lunatics, demanding immediate maintenance of their lift-off facilities, and at the same time looking for more power to ensure that Gotham would not fall. go down.
Their worries are not unreasonable. Although the lunatics in Gotham are all evil geniuses, after all, the time is too short, and the number cannot be compared with all the genius scientists in the Marvel universe. The method is not so subtle, it is completely powerful.
In short, the principle is similar to the small equipment made by the Red Hood. It uses a part of the energy from the wizard Felix to create a core pulse machine, and then continuously stimulates the dark power in Gotham Metal through the pulse.
This method is not impossible, but the efficiency of using the dark energy in the metal is too low, just like a toy remote control car that can only run after using up an entire industrial battery, more than 80% of the energy is used up. Wasted in the process of firing.
The Owl Court saw that it was only a matter of time before Gotham fell headlong after such a waste. Even if they escaped the gravity of the earth, once the protective shield disappeared, the cosmic environment would be enough to kill them.
At the beginning, they wanted to contact the surface to provide sufficient energy so that Gotham could fly smoothly and then land smoothly, but obviously, the owl priests in the main control room of the underground labyrinth had died a long time ago and fled. No one can answer their request anymore.
As a result, the members of the Owl Court had to start working overtime to study how to maximize the use of this dark energy, so that Gotham can land smoothly before the energy bottoms out.
In the end, the members of the Owl Court, who were exhausted from sleepless work, waited in their office for not a savior, but a smiling face with green hair, a pale face, and a bloody mouth.
