Chapter 3936: MU: The Super-Body Incident (Part 28)

Strange understood that this was indeed a problem. This was different from the nature of Batman's learning. Batmen were zero-based and didn't even have a concept of magic, so they could naturally learn something by going to school. At least they could change their concepts and understand that real magical energy had to be "grabbed"—this was the biggest harvest.

But this group of mature mages was different. How could they not know that magic could be grabbed? It was just that they couldn't grab it!

Don't look at the fact that they could get some energy from Batman now; this didn't mean they could beat demons by fighting alone. Even if they hugged together, the winning rate wasn't high, and if they missed, they would be in the underworld.

Now what they needed to improve was the efficiency of energy use, that is, using less energy to deal higher damage, and using more energy to deal explosive damage. Only then could they beat the demons into submission and grab more energy.

In this case, going to the magic school on the Marvel side was a bit mismatched. Because the magic usage techniques on the Marvel side and the DC side were different. Don't look at the fact that the essence of magic on both sides was the same, but if you delve into the details, they were far apart. After all, they were two different universes, and it was very difficult for such places to match completely.

Although magic had large-scale attack methods, it also had exquisite application techniques. The magic techniques of this group of people were not weak, and if they wanted to improve further, they had to pick at the details. Going to a strange world where the rules couldn't be completely matched was more likely to lead them astray.

Strange thought for a while and said: "Actually, there is a magic academy in a certain universe on this side. Don't you all know?"

The mages looked at each other, and finally all looked at Batman. The main universe Batman naturally knew, and he said: "Are you talking about the Cat Getan Magic Academy in the Inner World?"

"That's right, the magical world of that universe can be considered to be developing relatively quickly, and it has already cultivated quite a few young mages. And there is also a defense network there, as well as the barrier of the Inner World. Going there to avoid the limelight and train by the way is also possible."

The main universe Batman thought about it and felt that this was indeed the best plan, but he really didn't want to deal with that bastard.

However, in the end, reason overcame emotion. The main universe Batman looked at the Battleworld time, converted it in his heart, and found that it was exactly the working hours of the Justice League on that side, so he sent a message to Bruce.

Bruce, who was mixing drinks at the bar, almost jumped up when he received the message. He shouted like he had seen a ghost, attracting everyone's attention.

"What's wrong?" Arthur put down the dice in his hand. Diana also put down the cards in her hand and looked at Bruce.

"What's going on? Why is Batman staring at me again? Didn't he already suspect the universe of the Injustice League?" Bruce frowned.

Several people hurried over, and Diana looked at him and said: "Didn't you say you already fooled him before? What is he looking for you for now?"

"He said he wanted to send a batch of mages to the Cat Getan Magic Academy, but I think this must be a probe. If the mages run out of the Inner World, they will definitely discover Brainiac. What should we do?"

"Mages?" Diana frowned, "Why suddenly send mages? Did something change on their side?"

Bruce thought for a while and said: "Some time ago, the universe where that Batman is located took Oa. Batman got a sum of energy from there, borrowed people from the neighboring world, and put all his effort into building a magical defense network. It should be completed now."

"Then they should be short of manpower right now; why would they want to send mages to our side?"

"Maybe it's because they are short of manpower that they want to send them over. Mages aren't individuals; they all have creditors. If they all go to work for Batman, wouldn't all the creditors come to collect debts? Sending a batch over might be to divert them."

"Are you going to agree?" Diana asked.

"The problem now is that I have no reason to refuse," Bruce said, "The multiverse is in a time of trouble, and most Batmen have adopted a cooperative attitude. If I don't cooperate, I will definitely be targeted. If I am labeled as being on Owlman's side, my situation will be even more passive."

"Oh, that won't do," Arthur said, "You must never mix with that idiot, even if it's just being mistaken for favoring him. They will think you are also an idiot, which will bring us endless trouble."

Diana sighed and said: "Indeed, Owlman is in danger himself, and the situation in the multiverse is one-sided. It is very unwise to oppose the stronger side now. But if you agree, the risk of exposure will increase greatly."

"If Batman finds out that there is such a Brainiac in our universe, there will be no peaceful days from now on," Bruce also sighed, "And he will definitely be on guard against Brainiac. It will be difficult for us to use Brainiac to do things again."

"So you still have to agree?"

Bruce nodded and said: "For now, we can only ensure that those mages don't run out and don't let them come into contact with Brainiac."

"But there are quite a few ordinary people living in the Inner World," Diana frowned, "I thought you shouldn't have opened the Inner World to ordinary people at the beginning. Now it's good, you can't even block it if you want to."

"Blocking is still possible, but it will cause panic. Moreover, those who can live in the Inner World are rich or expensive. Locking them in the Inner World will also have an impact on the real world, so we can't forbid them from communicating with the outside world."

"Then exposure is almost inevitable," Arthur shook his head and said, "Even if you just listen with your ears, you can hear what they are discussing. It's hard not to involve Brainiac."

"It doesn't matter what they hear, as long as it doesn't get back," Bruce said.

Diana widened her eyes and said: "You aren't going to silence them all, are you? I'm afraid that won't work. Those mages should all be experts, otherwise they wouldn't have participated in the construction of the magical defense network."

"But it's impossible for any of them to enter the Battleworld, and there's no way to communicate across universes. As long as they are dragged here, they won't be able to report to Batman."

"But they will always have to go back one day."

"That's not necessarily true. They aren't Batman's tools; it's normal for them to have their own career plans. Seeing that the conditions here are good and wanting to stay to teach, it's not too much, right? Batman can't put a knife to their necks and force them to go back, can he?"

"So that's the idea you had," Diana thought for a while and said, "I don't think they have any loyalty to Batman, but they listen to Batman's arrangements, it must be because Batman used something to move them. Then what are you using to make them change their minds?"

"The things mages seek are very simple. What they want most is energy. Batman likely used this to move them. Considering he raided the Guardians of the Universe, this is also very reasonable. Then if we use energy to buy them, we must give a lot, which is too much of a loss, so it's better to think of ways from other places."

"For example?"

"Mages have brought energy, so there must be a place to use it. Most mages like to explore the origin of the universe, and most of the magic experiments they do are to understand more 'truth'. We should think of ways in this regard."

"You mean you are going to tell them the truth of the universe? Using your identity as an angel?"

"Of course not. I mean, we can let them have better experimental conditions, let them feel that doing research here is faster than over there, and even make them unable to adapt to the simple conditions over there. Even if they go back, they will still want to come back."

"But what can we use to open the gap with the other side?"

"Brainiac," Bruce said.

Both of them looked at him. Bruce continued: "Maybe you haven't seen the recent global scientific research personnel life status survey report. The report states that almost all scientific research personnel are satisfied with the status quo, which is a grand occasion that no era has ever had."

"Why is that?"

"Because Brainiac has replaced the vast majority of bottom-level scientific research personnel, so there is no labor exploitation in the scientific research field. What remains are geniuses who can truly promote the cause of human science, and then take good care of them in terms of life, allowing them to devote themselves to experiments, and then use Brainiac's computing power to help them solve most of the paper calculations, allowing every assumption to land quickly and steadily—how can they not be happy?"

Diana nodded and said: "I would be happy too."

"Mages are the same. As long as Brainiac can help them in their experiments and daily lives, or even play a decisive role, they will naturally be willing to stay. Even if they go back, I'm afraid they won't reveal Brainiac's existence to Batman."

Diana thought for a while and said: "This is also a way, but I don't think this matter can be hidden forever. Do you really not intend to participate in solving this multiverse invasion?"

"I can participate, but Brainiac can't," Bruce sighed and said, "The last time he repelled that electronic life, it had already caused it to evolve greatly. If they fight a few more times, the other party's improvement will be even greater, which is completely helping with trouble."

"And I haven't done nothing," Bruce narrowed his eyes and said, "I'm investigating which universe this thing specifically ran out of."

"Any clues?"

"A little, but not much. But it's certain that it ran out from the neighboring world. To know which universe specifically, we might have to go there to check."

"Are you planning to go yourself?" Arthur shook his wine glass and said, "You don't have the identity of an angel over there, and your combat power isn't much to look at. It's still quite dangerous. It's better to find someone to go with you."

"I'm thinking about this," Bruce said, "It's because there's no suitable candidate that I've been dragging it out, otherwise I would have gone long ago."

"You sent Clark out, naturally you didn't want to go with him. Why?"

"He's about the same as me. The yellow sun over there might not be useful to him. His power can't be replenished, and he can't fight for a long time, which is also very dangerous for him."

"It seems our problems are about the same. The cosmic structure over there is different from here. It's hard for us to get power replenishment. It's best to find someone who can mix in both worlds... Oh, my God, you aren't thinking of finding Schiller, are you?"

"I do want to find him, but what makes me difficult is which him to find. Dr. Schiller's price is too high, Professor Schiller's efficiency is too low, and the rest don't seem very stable. None of them are suitable as teammates."

Just as Bruce finished saying this, he found that his Battleworld system received a message, signed by Schiller Rodriguez, but the avatar was a bit unfamiliar:

"Going to the neighboring world to investigate the origin of electronic life, coming?" — Agent.
