Gotham, Underground Wayne Manor, Batcave.
Although the bat cave in the film and television works is shocking enough, Jay couldn't help but be amazed when he actually came here in person. Boundless darkness shrouded this huge cave, and the number of Chiropteran mammals living in the darkness seemed to be endless, staring vigilantly at every visitor who passed through the gate.
In addition to the high-tech batwings, chariots, and submarines that should be parked in the cave, Jay also found the most classic decorations in the cartoon bat caves, such as the several-person-high metal standing in the open space of the cave. Coins, a giant clown playing card behind a layer of glass, and a huge, equal-sized dinosaur. Each item hides a rich and exciting adventure story, and the whole place is like a museum that silently tells the Batman legend.
Bruce took off the shirt of his shirt and sat under the surgical light to let Alfred mend his shocking wound. Jay and Carla, who had brought him back here, just stood by and looked as though they were in pain for him, while he was expressionless, as if it wasn't him who was being stitched.
"At least you came back here alive and let me mend it," Alfred cut the stitches on Bruce's shoulder with scissors, "this should take a while, although I'm conservatively estimating that it will break within twenty-four hours. ."
He took the tool box and moved to the other side of Bruce, Carla looked at the wounds on Batman's body, her long eyelashes drooping unconsciously: "Clark... Rao is on, how can he do this Do?"
"The Guard is Here"
Jay sighed and patted her on the shoulder in comfort. Bruce frowned and said, "No, that's not Clark."
Both cast a surprised look at him.
"I know Clark Kent, he's a good guy at heart," Bruce mused. "No matter how similar the guy looks, he's not Clark."
"But he has Clark's memories," Carla said. "He remembers me, and he remembers you."
"Memories can be implanted, faked... Some people may even be able to make a fake Superman." Bruce frowned and said, "And I might just have a suspect."
Late at night, the Philippine Strait.
The abnormal storm has lasted for a whole week in this sea area, and the momentum finally weakened a little until today. According to meteorological experts, this may be an abnormal storm that can be recorded in the history books. If the new superman arrived in time to rescue the disaster, the casualties may be countless.
A pitch-black warship braved the wind and waves into this manic sea area. This may be the first ship to break into this restricted area since the wind and waves broke out. Although the current wind has weakened to the point where it is barely navigable, no ship dares to come here to take risks, and they would rather take more detours to avoid this restricted area.
Helena Wayne put on her diving attire, carefully checked the oxygen equipment and lifeline on the diving suit, and was soon fully prepared for groundwater. Then she turned to look at her partner, Sisko Ramon, the newcomer codenamed "Shockwave", who was still reviewing the use of every piece of equipment in the diving suit she was wearing like a textbook. Holding his forehead and sighing, he began to worry about the feasibility of this mission.
Why did the headquarters have to send her a rookie partner to perform this task? She felt that it was better to go into the water by herself, or she might have a bigger grasp.
The torrential rain poured outside the window, and a wave of waves hit the hull of the warship like a heavy hammer. The violent turbulence seemed to make the whole world tremble. Sisko, who was trying to remember the purpose of the equipment on his body, stumbled under his feet, and hurriedly supported the wall to stabilize his face.
"This is the best weather we can wait for. The rainstorm has not subsided until then, and warships can't even sail into this sea." The voice of their boss, Amanda Waller, came from the communicator in their ears. It came from inside, "Is there any problem with the line check?"
"No." Helena and Sisko replied in turn.
"Remember, you only have three hours of oxygen storage, always pay attention to your oxygen meter." Waller ordered coldly, "If the sea surface weather changes suddenly again, we will immediately use lifelines to bring you back. And if In the event of an unexpected situation and unable to return in time, the captain is only obliged to wait for you for three minutes."
"clear."
"Very well, then good luck to you, agents."
"It means that we might burp under here." Sisko finally mumbled before entering the water. "This really boosts morale."
The two jumped from the deck into the tumbling waves, leaving the storm on the water far behind in a moment.
The visibility underwater is very limited, and the front, back, left, and right are all pitch-black water bodies, and even the strong light searchlights on their helmets have very limited effects. Helena led the dive in front, and Sisko muttered all the way, which made her wonder if this partner really passed the diving test.
They soon came to the bottom of the water, and the soles of their feet lightly stepped on the rocks. The golden light of the searchlight illuminated a few unnamed seaweeds, which swayed leisurely beside their flippers. While Sisko was still adjusting her balance, Helena had activated the sonar built into her helmet and used sound waves to explore their underwater environment.
The purpose of their trip was to find the huge energy source that caused this abnormal storm. The location of the target had been speculated by the experts of the organization long before they dived, and it was marked on the Helena helmet at this time. in the sonar map on the monitor. She followed the direction of the sign, and the two were led to a huge sea rock after a while.
After confirming that she was at the target coordinate position, Helena took out the scanner and started scanning directly below. After more than ten seconds, the scanner returned the result, and the words "No abnormal reading" popped up on the pressure-resistant electronic screen.
Helena frowned: "Did you make a mistake in determining the location? The instrument can't read any abnormal data, there is nothing special here, and there is no super energy."
"Coordinates confirmed, Huntress, there is no mistake." Waller ordered directly through their communicator, "Let Shockwave do his job."
Helena glanced strangely at the new partner who had been underestimated by her, wanting to see what special skills he had. Sisko seemed to take a deep breath of oxygen under his diving helmet, then leaned over and squatted on the boulder, stretched out his right hand and pressed it on the surface of the boulder, closing his eyes lightly.
In an instant, time and space quickly reversed in Sisko's consciousness, and every atom floating in the sea seemed to respond to his call, sending him a huge amount of information with its own vibration. A picture of the deep sea quickly took shape in his brain like a projection, and his consciousness was like a snake following the trajectory of atoms, chasing the huge rock on which they were based, and seeing something different from reality.
"What did you see, Shockwave?" Waller asked over the communication line.
"I... saw some kind of pillar." Sisko still closed his eyes, but his eyebrows were involuntarily twisted together.
"Cylinder?"
"Yes, the pillar," Sisko confirmed, "but it's... special. It has an unprecedented amount of energy, and it releases some kind of particle... that seems to interfere with time and The composition of the space, that affects my ability to play."
Helena looked at the kid in surprise, and seemed to finally understand why the superior insisted on sending him to participate in the dive. What is this ability? Inspirational? Can he see what has happened and pictures of the past?
But she also knew that this was a critical moment, so she didn't make a sound. Waller continued, "What about that thing? Is it still there?"
"No, it's gone," Sisko said, his eyebrows twitching, "God, the interference is too strong, that thing...it's too powerful, it's blocking my senses. .....Wait a moment."
He stopped abruptly when he said this, and his face became extremely ugly.
"What's wrong?" Even Helena finally couldn't help but ask.
"There is something else, just under our feet," Sisko said with an ugly face, "it's coming out!"
Almost as soon as his voice fell, a huge crack crept silently up the rock on which their feet were standing. The sand and dust on the bottom of the sea violently flew up, and the turbid bubbles rose up in the beam of the searchlight. The water pressure in the position of the two suddenly changed suddenly, and tons of seawater slammed down on their heads.
