Chapter 2366

Batwoman watched Batman dismantle the converter under the energy hub on the transformation machine. He seemed more interested in that than the energy hub she spent a lot of money and time on.

Batman frowned and stared at the jar containing meteorite fragments for a long time, until Batwoman couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong? Is there any problem with it?"

"You should say where there is no problem." Batman turned to look at her and said: "Have you conducted any investigation on it? For example, its source, specific properties, material analysis data."

"Almost none." Batwoman shook her head and admitted: "I didn't have that much time."

"Perhaps you just didn't have that much reason." Batman sighed deeply and said: "My intuition tells me that this thing is very dangerous. Perhaps we need further research on it before putting it into the weapon, otherwise no one knows what the fired bullets will bring."

"If you want to analyze it, there are instruments over there." Batwoman pointed to a huge machine by the wall and said: "But that takes time. I'm afraid it will take at least 5 days to get specific data."

"No, we have a better way, go find Constantine."

When the two Batmen appeared in front of Constantine again, Constantine was almost crazy. She poured the wine in the glass into her mouth and roared at the two: "Can you finish what you have to say at once?!! Is this interesting?!!"

"Stop drinking." Batman took the wine glass she placed on the table and said: "After things are over, there will be plenty of time to drink."

Constantine was like being electrocuted. She pulled her hand back with a swish, rolled her eyes, and raised her eyebrows at Batman, obviously reading a different meaning from Batman's still deep tone.

It was a bit like tying a carrot in front of a donkey's head, but who let this be a golden carrot.

"Okay, what's the matter this time must be finished, otherwise you won't be able to find me in Limbo."

Batman sat opposite Constantine and handed the jar with meteorite fragments to her. Constantine's eyes immediately became serious. After taking it, she said: "Where did you get this thing?"

"Fell from the sky." Batwoman replied.

"No, no, no, this is not an alien product." Constantine groped the jar and said: "The energy flow on this looks like the human magic system at a glance, to be precise, ancient magic."

"Are you sure? Who used the magic?"

"It's hard to say, but there was indeed a pile of this stuff in ancient times, but this one in your hand is particularly special because it is very exquisite, as if it was designed for a certain purpose."

"Are the others not?"

Constantine touched her chin and said: "Generally speaking, ancient wizards poured energy into metals and other materials to enhance their magical affinity and use them to manufacture some artifacts."

"But yours is different. The energy flow is too complex. It not only enhances the strength of the material, but it also gives this material a new property."

"Amplify energy?"

"You also understand magic?" Constantine looked at Batwoman with some surprise and said.

"I just experimented."

"Hiss..." Constantine gasped, threw the jar into Batman's arms, and said: "You didn't even know what it was and dared to start it. What if there is a curse? What if there is radiation?"

"Take it away, take it away, take it away quickly." Constantine pushed the chair and hid back, saying: "Even the most death-seeking mages are not as bold as you. If you start the things left by ancient wizards rashly, it will be a curse on a small town at best, and it can wipe a city off the world at worst. This is too terrible."

"Who do you think left this? And who disguised it as a meteorite and sent it to Batman?"

"Do you think this is a conspiracy?" Batman looked at Batman and asked.

"Inevitably. If you found this in an ancient tomb, perhaps I wouldn't be so suspicious, but if it is an object from outer space, the other party might just want you to think it is just a strange material that doesn't exist on Earth, so even if you have time to analyze it, you won't feel suspicious if you get very outrageous data."

Batwoman fell into thought.

"I'm afraid I can't tell you the specific answer." Constantine sighed and said: "I already said I'm not a theorist and can't figure out those hidden histories."

"Why are you looking at me?" Constantine shrank back again, and then wailed: "No way, you still want to go again?!! I will be blacklisted by Oxford!!!"

10 minutes later, the two Batmen appeared in front of the door again. Batwoman sighed and said: "I won't go in, so as not to make us both look like idiots."

"There is nothing shameful about exploring more in areas you don't understand." Batman said: "We are just diligent and inquisitive."

After speaking, he took the bottle and walked in. Sothep was sitting behind the desk playing with a globe.

"Why is it you again?" He looked very surprised.

Batman put the jar on the desk. He saw that the eyes of the man behind the desk changed immediately.

"Where did you find it?"

"Egypt, someone disguised it as a meteorite."

Sothep put down the globe in his hand. He picked up the jar, paused for a moment, and said: "I told you long ago that I have no truth and answers here. You have to find them yourself."

"Then what about the clues?"

"I'm sorry, but this time there are no clues either, because I can't be sure what this is. I know it's very dangerous, but I know nothing else."

"This is very important, Doctor. It not only threatens the safety of this universe, but possibly all universes." Batman took two steps forward and said: "We suspect that someone used this thing to frame Batman, causing them to lose control, and eventually making them become channels."

As soon as the word channel came out, Batman saw Sothep's eyes follow, which made Batman immediately understand that he must know something.

"Tell me, Doctor." Batman took another step forward, standing in front of Sothep, inches away, "Tell me everything you know."

This was his usual method of using height and momentum advantages to increase oppression, but the other party obviously didn't eat this set, just turned his head to look at the bottle in his hand.

"I'm sorry, I can't give you the truth and answers."

Batman keenly noticed the change in the statement this time, from no to cannot.

"Why cannot?"

"Knowledge has a price." Sothep sat in the chair and said: "The source of my knowledge will definitely be denounced by you as evil, but in fact, there is a group of mysterious existences in this world that possess endless knowledge. As long as you can accept the madness that comes with knowledge at the same time, you can get the truth and answers."

"Gods?"

"Similar but different. They have no reason and are infinitely close to natural laws. I have spent my whole life studying them and have also found a way to communicate with them. All my knowledge comes from them."

"How can I get the truth and answers from them?"

"Never think about this question. This is not a direction you can consider." Sothep's answer was very firm, "Receiving crazy knowledge, besides needing willpower, also needs extremely high inspiration, which will make you recognize a brand-new face of this world, but I believe you won't like it."

Suddenly, Batman saw endless, dazzling patterns through Sothep's eyes, huge whirlpools, turbulence, particles, thick fog, starlight, and sea currents intertwined, and the pupils were like two colorful stars.

Batman realized that this was the world outside the world.

"I must know all this." Batman still made a decision. He said: "I need to know the truth and answers."

"Then bear the price." Sothep looked at him and said: "When you stare into the abyss, the abyss also sees you."

"What will they do?"

"Perhaps they will do nothing, but being watched by them is a disaster in itself. They will be inseparable, never dissipate, and always watch you among the stars."

Sothep walked back behind the desk quickly, put the bottle on the desk, stood up straight and looked at Batman and said: "It will always ask you to respond, always always... and you will eventually respond to their call one day, explore the secrets deep in the stars, and fall into endless madness."

"Sounds like a curse."

"Much worse than that."

"Are you like this?"

Batman finally saw a trace of human expression on this man's face, not just a detached indifference.

"About me, it's never the point." Sothep said: "Come on, make a decision. If you want to call them actively, they might give you what you want, or they might not, but they will definitely see you."

Batman walked slowly to the opposite side of the desk with firm steps and reached out to pick up the jar and said: "I am not afraid of anyone's gaze, because I have a clear conscience, and it has always been so."

Sothep sighed long, and he took out four tarot cards, but the cards were not any kind Batman knew.

The one on the right was printed with a black figure wearing a gorgeous robe and a double golden giant crown, and the one on the left was printed with a black shadow sitting on a giant stone base in front of a huge door.

But Batman's gaze fell on the card at the very top, and there was nothing on that card.

"What is this?"

"Nothingness."

"What does it mean?"

"They are a group." Sothep said: "Each of them almost has images and legends, and has their own imagery, but some of them don't. They are often mysterious beyond imagination and possess great danger."

"Will it be more accurate than others?"

"More unstable than others." Sothep stared at Batman's eyes and said: "You don't know what you will get, everything is indefinite."

Batman pressed his hand on that blank card.

Almost instantly, thick fog enveloped him, and a wisp of imperceptible fog appeared in the jar in his hand.

Schiller opened his eyes suddenly.

Everyone in the Shining Alliance felt a storm almost instantly, invisible and intangible, not a physical entity, but it made people feel Schiller's existence like a natural force so clearly and directly for the first time.

"What's wrong?" Stark asked in a low voice,

Schiller looked up at him, and Stark saw unprecedented depth in Schiller's eyes.

"Are you sure?" Schiller asked in his heart.

"I am sure." The gray fog's steady voice sounded in his heart. The metal in the meteorite fragment in Batman's hand and the metal on the helmet shown by Spider-Man had the exact same energy flow... they were manufactured by the same person.
