Chapter 1647

The holy spring flowing from the sanctuary bypassed the city along the flower-filled waterway. The water splashes cheered and danced rainbows of light in the air. The fountain statue in the square erupted a bright water column like oil from the fish's mouth. The holy people held baskets and drove sheep past the square.

From time to time, angels in white robes and bare feet would pass through the crowd. They smiled and greeted the crowd, drew a cross on their chests with their hands, greeted them about the recent situation in heaven, and occasionally exchanged greetings with each other, exchanging interesting things in the universe where they worked.

Countless multiverses share one heaven, but not every angel has administrator permissions. The vast majority of angels are still files in the computer, just like antivirus programs. Only a few great angels headed by Lucifer are like programmers sitting in front of the computer.

That is to say, only the archangels are unique, and newborn angels cannot use clones and projections to manage the universe one by one. This is also the reason why heaven constantly produces newborn angels, because the universe is also constantly increasing.

Whenever the universe increases, newborns will be born in the holy spring. Most of them will first go to the newborn universe to check the situation, and then go to the relevant heaven management department to take office, specifically responsible for the maintenance work of certain universes.

And the archangels sit in heaven, but there are also countless clone projections going to various universes. Newborn angels are mainly responsible for the stability of the church and faith, while archangels must maintain the normal order and structural stability of the universe itself.

Mortals can summon different angels through special runes and power operation methods formulated by heaven, but usually, the magic circle for summoning archangel projections is much more complex than summoning newborn angels. It can be said that there are very few people in the entire universe who master this kind of magic circle, and most of them are famous characters in comics.

Angels responding to summons don't really need any power and faith, it's more like an indicator of brushing their faces in comics, especially those archangels. They were created directly by the Supreme God, and the setting is a perfect creature. How could they be worse than the offerings of mortals?

Simply put, they set up countless clone projections and distributed them to every universe, actually because the editorial department has considerations for spreading religious influence in plot design, so they occasionally let certain characters with religious elements respond to summons, giving them a justified reason to participate in the plot. This belongs to the underlying setting of the universe.

But for all creatures in the universe, this is a real world after all, not a comic. It's not that the lens turns and the grid jumps and the magic circle can be drawn. This is a specialized discipline. Mortals need to go through learning and research to master the skill of summoning angels.

But the problem comes again. The learning ability of mortals is not perfect, it can only be said to be full of mistakes. Not only do they like to take shortcuts, simplify the magic circle at will without considering the effect, but they also particularly pursue efficiency, and often add various strange catalysts to the magic circle.

There is a department in heaven specifically responsible for accepting summons. They will specifically answer calls from human mages, but sometimes the angels in this department are also a bit confused. Human calls are made but not completely made, made but possibly wrong, made without saying the address and then hung up, connected but completely don't know what is being said.

Although archangels are omniscient and omnipotent, they can't do nothing and squat by the phone every day to guess riddles to pass the time, right?

This kind of short-lived species of humans loses a lot of knowledge every generation. The original set of rune systems has been passed down to today, and the parts that can really work are like the Jerusalem of the West. Even if it is an orthodox church, various prayer techniques and communication languages are lost.

After Lucifer returned to heaven, he found that this department responsible for responding to summons was half-paralyzed. This is also the main reason why Gabriel could cause trouble in the human world for so long without being discovered. Complaint calls couldn't get through, angels couldn't communicate smoothly with their fixed believers, and Michael asked that the world was peaceful. Gabriel could naturally do bad things as he pleased.

Lucifer wanted to change the current situation. He actually wanted to directly modify the underlying files of the universe, reverse the thoughts of all mages or believers who have exchanges with heaven, and forcibly make them remember the runes.

But on second thought, human life is so short, one generation changes in a hundred years, and at most ten generations will forget it cleanly. Does he have to do this every thousand years? Wouldn't he be tired to death?

Most importantly, perhaps God overestimated the memory and professional level of humans. The initial set of runes and prayer systems were so complex that even angels couldn't bear to look at them.

First, you have to draw a very complex magic circle, offer a dozen of thousands of sacrifices according to different functions, and then cooperate with different actions and prayer languages, using special power injection methods, to possibly get through to the angel's phone.

This itself is to filter out those believers who are not pious enough to prevent heaven's phone from being blown up, but even the most pious believers inevitably have omissions when teaching this method, plus individual little smart ghosts feel "the advantage is with me, simplifying it can also be used". After a few generations, the whole method is unrecognizable.

To solve the problem of forgetting the phone number after a few generations of inheritance, the best way is of course to change the phone number to be simpler, but once it is changed to be simple, any cat or dog can get through, and the communication department will still be paralyzed in the end.

Lucifer thought about several ways, but either it was too troublesome or the effect was not good enough. He had to gather all the archangels to brainstorm a way to solve the communication problem between heaven and earth.

Of course, the archangels also include Bruce Wei En, who occupies Gabriel's position.

Although angels are natural perfect creatures, perhaps precisely because their power is powerful and the environment in which they grow is too simple, they always have a beauty that has not been polluted by knowledge.

More importantly, they are not humans and cannot empathize with these weak races. They overestimate humans in some aspects and underestimate humans in some aspects. The methods proposed are either too difficult for humans or too troublesome for angels. They discussed for a long time and didn't get any results.

But at the end of the meeting, Bruce found Lucifer and took the initiative to express that he could take on the responsibility of updating the communication method between heaven and earth.

Lucifer was overjoyed, not because he really cared about updating the communication method between heaven and earth, but mainly because finding something serious for this Batman who grew crookedly into heaven was better than anything else.

Otherwise, Bruce would stare at the pool in the sanctuary every day, and Lucifer would worry every day that the next angel who walked out would have a head of green hair.

After the meeting, Bruce smiled and said goodbye to every archangel, and everyone smiled and responded. They were already very used to Bruce's existence, and it could even be said that he was more angelic than all the angels here.

Although archangels are perfect creatures created by God himself, Batman is obviously a perfect creature created by a higher existence himself. Batman's persona is the most perfect human in this world. His perfection is the underlying setting of the universe, and even more stable than the existence of angels.

Originally, it could be said that interpersonal communication and emotional experience were Batman's shortcomings, but since Bruce graduated excellently from Schiller, he finally figured it out.

When Batman finally stopped going against Cat Getan, there were too many things he could do. Besides falling in love with Selina, studying plants suitable for Cat Getan with Pamela, developing agriculture in Kent Manor and Mexico, he also continued to improve weather controllers with Lex Luthor, established the Earth magic defense network with Green Lantern, Hal, and Supreme Mage Strange, built a space station with Diana, and at the same time ran around in the inner world, heaven, and hell, and became familiar with all angels and demons.

Because Bruce acted completely according to the perfect angel behavior template in heaven, being beautiful, wise, holy, and not lacking in majesty, Michael liked him too much.

Because of Schiller, Lucifer came into contact with Bruce Wei En earlier, which can also be said to be watching him grow up. Lucifer knew very well how trendy this special Batman was, so Lucifer was often worried about the life and property safety of his brothers recently.

Hearing that Bruce was going to take on the heavy responsibility of updating the communication method, Michael expressed full support and opened most of the permissions needed to change such rules to Bruce.

Of course, Bruce was not talking nonsense. He really had a way to update a communication method that was simple but had a threshold. Simply put, it was mathematics.

If you ask who can recite the first hundred digits of pi, the number of people probably won't be many, but if you ask who can calculate to the hundredth digit, the number of people must be hundreds or thousands of times the former.

First of all, reciting the first hundred digits of pi has no meaning, it's just a string of numbers, but the ability to calculate decimal places is a complete discipline.

Compared to a string of complex numbers that need to be memorized and can't be used in daily life, obviously a discipline that can play a role in daily life and can also be deeply studied and seek truth is easier to be passed down by a pragmatic race like humans.

Bruce intended to establish such a discipline.

After in-depth communication with Strange, Bruce discovered that the magic of the two worlds was not just different in the Earth magic defense network.

By comparison, the inheritance of magic in the Marvel world is more complete, and because of the lack of energy in the past, many disciplines that maximize the use of energy in the case of energy depletion have been developed, such as the teleportation magic discipline that is most useful on the road of humans entering the interstellar space.

Until he came into contact with Strange, Bruce knew that teleportation portals were not just connecting two spatial nodes with magic power to transfer items or people.

How to use the least power to teleport the longest distance, how to intelligently judge the object passing through the teleportation portal to adjust the amount of energy used for teleportation, how to open the teleportation portal under various interference conditions, and how to lower the threshold for using the teleportation portal to the lowest, are the essence of teleportation magic.

Similar ones include magic defense network discipline, magic item infusion discipline, and the emerging wand making discipline. And a scientific research project that these Marvel world magic disciplines cannot bypass is how to save energy and maximize the use of energy.

It can be said that even after a shallow understanding, Bruce could discover that the universe where Strange is must have had a rather poor and sour period, but this is not something worth mocking.

On the contrary, the DC world is because of long-term abuse of energy and overdraft of costs, leading to no one specializing in a certain discipline. Now all the remaining inheritance is vague on some problems, some are even inconsistent, and most emergency plans and troubleshooting methods are to increase the intensity of energy injection, without any rigorous spirit of scientific research.

Taking this opportunity, Bruce intended to comprehensively reform the entire magic knowledge inheritance system, at least first establish a basic discipline of runology, and then talk about others.

But when he started to try, he discovered a problem. The only magic master in this universe who can be called a runology master, John Constantine, can no longer use magic now.

Thus, Bruce had to look for other strategies.

And to solve this problem that can be called unsolvable, it is not enough to limit the eyes to within this universe. But it is not so simple to interfere with other universes, and the strategy Bruce intended to adopt is—fishing.
