Chapter 3926

Hanging up the President's phone, a cold light flashed in Schiller's eyes. He pulled the soaking wet Seeing Natasha up and said: "I'll run a few more trips and send you to the island next to us. To avoid alerting the enemy, I'm afraid there won't be a large-scale rescue. Tomorrow you can leave with that group of party people."

The agents didn't complain either. When working in the field, any outrageous situation could be encountered. This time was already not bad; at least Schiller came very quickly and didn't let them soak for too long.

Schiller first drove the speedboat to send Seeing Natasha back to the shore of Metropolis. Others could wait until tomorrow morning, but she couldn't. The Central Intelligence Agency had a mission here.

"So it destroyed my plane just to hold you back, so you couldn't go and contact Doom and Stark?"

"Yes. These two scientists are important, but after all, they are staying in the Batcave and are temporarily safe. You are different. The President will choose to save you first. Others are not safe, and it has to be me. In that case, at least tonight, it's impossible for me to rush back to Cat Getan to find those two scientists."

"But why tonight? What happened in the Batcave?"

"It's not clear yet. Batman might be contacting them, but I guess it should be that these two guys took the initiative to contact the electronic life form, and might even have done something to it."

"But what does this have to do with you?"

"I am the only one who contacts them. They need me to buy and send whatever they lack. If I am held back, at least tonight I can't send things, which can drag their research progress for one night. Maybe the electronic life form can take advantage of this gap to iterate away some weaknesses that were caught."

"Are they really that powerful?" Seeing Natasha frowned and said, "It hasn't been long, and they've already caught the other party's horse feet?"

"You might feel that Batman has been busy for so long without as much results as their few days. But don't forget, Batman manages such a big stall, he can't focus on technology at all. And Doom and Stark together occupy at least half of the wisdom essence of the universe they are in. Cleaning up an electronic life form isn't that difficult."

"Then it looks like it can be settled soon?"

"It's not that optimistic either. The key lies in the fact that the electronic life form has already evolved into a radio wave creature. Catching this thing isn't easy. Wanting to eliminate it completely is even more of a fantasy. Maybe their move this time is just to collect more information."

"Also. But it feels like the electronic life form didn't get any advantage either; choosing to drag you back might also be a last resort."

"The one dragging time changed from us to it, which proves that the situation is beginning to reverse. I think it's not just our universe; other universes will also gradually get better after receiving support from heroes of another world."

"Captain and Stephen went to their main universe. I'll send a message to ask him, hopefully there won't be any more changes... what? Schiller also crashed?!"

Main universe, Schiller was standing on the wing of the plane, looking at the boundless Atlantic Ocean, and sighed silently.

A day ago, Strange, who was standing in the center of the Batcave looking at the globe, sighed and said: "You want to choose a fully hidden pillar, it's not impossible, but the construction difficulty and the difficulty of subsequent hiding and maintenance are not at the same level as an ordinary sanctuary. Are you sure you want to do this?"

"You can't expect all countries to be of one mind," the main universe Batman said. "In fact, it's a miracle that the sanctuaries on your side haven't been attacked by muddle-headed anti-government forces. It definitely won't work here."

"It's as if you are still fighting World War II."

"That war has never ended," the main universe Batman shook his head and said. "The world situation is unstable, and small countries are even more chaotic. Instead of trying to make them afraid to move the sanctuary, it's better to just let them not know."

Strange had to sigh and said: "Fine, your universe, you have the final say. But if there is only me, I can't complete such a big project in a short time. Even if you have enough energy to cast concealment magic, you always need someone to cast it. Call the mages of this universe."

He turned to look at the main universe Batman, and the main universe Batman also looked at him. The two stared at each other. Strange slapped his forehead and said: "Oh, right, this universe doesn't have any decent mage organizations yet. Then those scattered individual mages? You can always find a few who are willing to work for you and have pretty good levels, right?"

"This matter has to be found by Constantine," the main universe Batman turned and said. "I don't know where this guy ran off to recently. You wait, I'll give you an answer soon."

In front of door 125 of Kazovo, the main universe Batman knocked on the door. Soon the door was opened. Schiller turned sideways to let Batman walk in, then asked him: "How is it? The progress of the magic defense network construction is not bad, right."

The main universe Batman shook his head and said: "I have no way to communicate with governments like the other universe and establish official sanctuaries; someone will definitely trip me up. If I want to establish magic defense network pillars, I can only hide them, but it requires too many people. I want to ask you if you know where Constantine is."

Schiller shook his head and said: "If nothing unexpected happens, you can find him in the Limbo. But the problem is, no one knows how to get in there. He might not have wanted anyone to find him at all."

"Fine. Let me think about what other mages I can contact. Miss Zatara probably won't work; she has been traveling around the world and performing street performances, and it's very difficult to lock her trace in a short time."

"I actually have an idea," Schiller said. "Do you know the Master of the Dark?"

The main universe Batman nodded and said: "You mean going to the Oblivion Bar to find them?"

"Yes. Although the Master of the Dark is not an orthodox mage himself, he can travel to the Maya world; there are quite a few magical creatures there, maybe they can help."

"I remember now, the underworld of Cat Getan in your universe was built by magical creatures, right?"

"Consider it so," Schiller thought for a moment and said. "Maybe they have a way to contact Constantine."

"I have no doubts about the level of mages Constantine can summon, but in terms of character..."

"He won't make trouble at this time," Schiller shook his head and said. "The completion of the magic defense network is good for him; at least his creditors can't find him unscrupulously anymore. If he causes any trouble outside, he only needs to return to Earth, and the other party can only stare. So as long as he knows about this, he will definitely introduce reliable mages to you, and won't let them make trouble casually."

"Are you sure he won't mix some of his own little ideas into the magic defense network?"

"He also has to have that level," Schiller said. "As far as I know, most Constantines have research on defensive spells equal to zero. He is not the kind of person who relies on stacking shields to protect himself at all, otherwise he wouldn't make himself look neither human nor ghost every day. And, the magic defense network technology possessed by Strange is by no means as simple as you think. If it weren't for the special status of the universe you are in, he wouldn't have come personally. The magic defense network of this Earth of yours might be the most solid among all multiverses."

The main universe Batman sighed lightly and said: "Of course. But special status corresponds to greater responsibility. I have to solve the trouble here quickly, and then go to support the Dark Multiverse. Spidermen might be able to save people, but I'm afraid it's very difficult for them to thoroughly end the chaos. I have to be as fast as possible."

Schiller nodded. He knew that the Batmen finally decided to let Spidermen support the Dark Universe, mainly because they valued that Spidermen all had a purely kind heart. They almost wouldn't be polluted by dark power; even if they couldn't help much, they could at least save some people.

However, there are many dark universes, and the Spidermen with free time are divided up, and one universe doesn't get many. Saving people is enough to keep them busy, and it's very difficult for them to trace the source. If you want to kill the competition at the source, it still has to be Batman.

"I'll go to the UK," Schiller said. "It's very shameful, I haven't been able to help much before. Since you can't leave, I'll go to the UK for you to find the Master of the Dark. He should be willing to come and help."

"That would be great, Doctor," the main universe Batman said. "But don't say anything about being shameful; you being able to be here has already provided me with a lot of confidence."

Thus, Schiller set off. He first returned Mnemosyne to Gordon, packed some of his personal items, bought a plane ticket, and flew toward the UK.

He had thought about the electronic life form being able to manipulate the plane, but the electronic life form had no motivation to target him, and hadn't done anything to him all along. Schiller really didn't expect that just to delay his itinerary, this electronic life form directly threw the plane into the Atlantic Ocean.

Fortunately, it didn't seem to want to kill Schiller, just forced the plane to land in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Everyone successfully slid down from the slide and was now sitting on the life raft.

Schiller took advantage of the flight attendants not paying attention and came to the plane body from the life raft closest to the plane body. Although he was no longer allergic to the sea, he still wanted to stay as far away from the sea as possible.

The crash time wasn't long, and the plane didn't sink. Schiller could still take this opportunity to observe the surroundings. If no one came to rescue after a while, he could only call Lucifer.

Just as Schiller was hesitating whether to call Lucifer early to prevent the other party from complaining later "You actually didn't call me to save you at the first time", he suddenly saw that a moon had risen in the clear sky.

A hazy moonlight spilled down, Schiller looked up slightly, and then saw a face exactly the same as his own. The hooded figure seemed to be stepping on a completely inverted plane, looking at him upside down.

Schiller reached out to pull his hood, but the other party seemed to be just an illusion in the moonlight, disappearing suddenly upon contact. In a daze, Schiller found himself appearing on the roof of a building in London, with layers of roofs in front of him.

Schiller walked down the stairs beside him and called a taxi to the street where the Oblivion Bar was located. Just after he left, a moon-white hazy figure appeared where he had originally stood, the robe falling like a water curtain in the drizzle of London.
