Chapter 3954

"... Therefore, for a long time in the future, the Justice League must focus on economic development, keep an eye on the economic development of various continents, and especially focus on extra-legal organizations like the League of Assassins. At critical moments, they must be given the opportunity to seek economic assistance at the first opportunity..."

Even Superman understood what Shiler meant: anyway, it's just chasing and killing illegal organizations like the League of Assassins, and after beating them half to death, forcing them to borrow usury.

Although it sounds quite evil, it is a killer organization after all, and those assassins emitting black smoke don't look like humans at all. Even Superman couldn't sympathize with them—after all, he still had to think carefully about how to spend that demolition compensation.

Just at this time, Shiler's phone rang, and he picked it up and said: "Oh, really? This plan is not bad. You have finished sampling and collected the materials? Smelting? Good, I'll help you ask."

After hanging up the phone, he looked at Wonder Woman and said: "Madam, I remember you have a brother who is the God of Fire, and he wasn't affected by the operation to ban Mount Olympus, right?"

Wonder Woman nodded and said: "Indeed, he generally doesn't leave his territory; what's wrong?"

"It's like this, my two scientist friends extracted a brand-new metal from Cat Getan's buildings, but the properties of this metal are very magical; it cannot be smelted by ordinary high temperatures, and they want to find a better smelting method. I thought of your brother; I wonder if he can help?"

Because Shiler helped resolve the Amazon's reputation dilemma and even brought in a large number of global tourists, allowing them to earn a lot, Wonder Woman's attitude toward Shiler completely reversed. So she nodded happily and said: "No problem, give me the sample, and I'll go find him. If possible, I can let him come to Earth once."

Shiler and Wonder Woman came to the Batcave to take samples. However, what they got wasn't a piece of metal, but a mass of unknown black liquid. Stark said: "This is a liquid metal; although it presents this state, it still has the properties of metal, and it is quite excellent in all aspects. I just don't know why Batman never smelted and utilized them before."

"Batman is indeed a bit conservative," Shiler said, "But it doesn't matter; it's not too late to utilize it now."

Wonder Woman took Shiler and the metal samples to the forge where the God of Fire was. The other party held a hammer, looked at the metal samples, and said: "There is a very strange dark energy attached to this, which has a strong ability to infect, but it can only emit radiation if stimulated by a specific frequency, and it has no effect on the gods. What kind of finished product do you want?"

"We don't want it to have any special properties, just retain its metallic characteristics; it's best to be balanced and can be used as a universal component material."

"That's no problem," the God of Fire nodded and said, "I have a lot of things to do here and can't get away. I'll give you a cluster of flames; as long as you put the metal in, you can completely clear the energy impurities in it. As for what properties it will have afterward, you need to test it yourself."

Shiler nodded and said: "Thank you so much."

He returned to the Batcave with the flame and the samples. At this time, Doom and Stark had already built a furnace. After putting the flame in, they could throw construction waste directly into it, and they could continuously smelt metal.

The metal cleared of its dark nature still appeared black, but it carried a faint blue in the reflection, as well as some hidden white reflections, looking very beautiful.

"Let's call it Bat-Alloy," Stark smiled and said, "Batman will definitely like this name. We helped him take a big step forward in materials science; he will definitely be pleasantly surprised."

When Arkham Batman learned of this news, there was only surprise and no joy. He even rarely widened his eyes and said: "You said you smelted what into material?!"

"The dark metal left by the Court of Owls in Cat Getan's buildings," Shiler answered very calmly, "But don't worry, they didn't tear down the building; they just used recycled abandoned building materials."

"You mean, knowing that this thing might infect others and make people crazy, they decided to smelt it into material and use it to build things?"

"What's the problem?" Shiler looked at him, somewhat puzzled, and said, "Those dark energies have been cleared, and the material properties themselves are quite good. If you use local materials, you can save a lot of money."

Arkham Batman couldn't help but pinch the temples on both sides of his head with his middle finger and thumb. He opened his mouth to say something, but found that it seemed too late to say anything now.

"Don't worry, they won't act on their own; they respect you very much and even named this metal Bat-Alloy," Shiler said.

Arkham Batman suddenly felt that he didn't like bats very much.

In the Batcave, the two scientists were still busy. They got some Vibranium and Adamantium from other universes through Spider-Man, and then they suddenly discovered that the Bat-Alloy just forged had good fusion ability.

"How about we forge these three metals into an alloy?" Stark suddenly asked.

Doom thought carefully and said: "Vibranium might be a good choice, but Adamantium won't work; the property gap with the others is too large. Perhaps we should find some other materials."

"Have you seen Wonder Woman? Oh, we just saw her; did you see the silver bracelet on her hand? That's not ordinary metal; what do you think of that?"

"It looks good, but she probably won't give it to us."

"But she must know what this thing is made of," Stark touched his chin and said, "It's okay, as long as you tell Shiler, he will definitely be able to get it for us."

So, ten minutes later, Wonder Woman looked at the bracelet on her wrist, a bit dazed, and said: "You mean, you want this metal? But this one of mine carries divine power and cannot be given to others casually."

"We only want the material, Madam; you should know what this is made of, right? Just give us a small piece of material."

"This is the scrap from Zeus's Aegis shield, and there is only so much; it's all used up."

"What about Zeus's shield?"

"Uh... it should still be on his corpse, right?" Wonder Woman thought for a while and said, "His shield and armor are of the same material; the amount should be enough for you to use. His corpse is now in the Temple of Mount Olympus; shall we go take a look?"

Soon, Wonder Woman took Shiler to Mount Olympus. The corpses of the gods were all piled up here. Shiler didn't know much about which metal was better, nor did he know which could be used, so he took a little of everything.

After a while, a large pile of metal clattered onto the center of the Batcave. Stark's eyes lit up immediately, he rubbed his hands and said: "This is really not bad; the gods on this side have quite a lot of attainments in materials science, much stronger than those in Asgard who only know how to compress planets and dig out the sun's heart."

He started picking and choosing among the pile of materials, while Doom used the flame given to them by the God of Fire to transform a smelting pool, and was throwing Bat-Alloy and Vibranium into it.

After picking for a long time, he picked out quite a few metal products with decent quality, including shields, armor, earrings, and belts, some of which still had blood that hadn't been wiped clean. But anyway, it was magic smelting, so there wasn't so much fuss; just throw them in directly.

Doom and Stark's professional level was indeed excellent, and these metals soon fused together. When the smelting pool cooled down, what appeared in the center was a bright metal that was almost the same color as gold, but brighter, between gold and silver.

"Good heavens, this guy is too beautiful," Stark said with admiration, "I want to keep some and make myself a ring. How about you?"

Doom wasn't as flashy as him. After taking the metal, he put it into an instrument for testing. Very unsurprisingly, all the data were high and balanced; it was a very perfect metal material.

"Great," Stark knocked on the table excitedly and said, "In this way, we can replace the entire skeleton with this metal; it will become the most perfect work."

The two started to further optimize, and after being busy for a long time, the body underwent another major upgrade, which was already very close to perfect.

Doom said: "This side is ready; what about your magic life?"

Stark shook his head and said: "Magic life doesn't need a very complex structure, or rather, magic itself can simulate everything. What kind of structure it has is just a thought of mine."

"I have already input the data of all the women in the multiverse collected by the Spider-Men, which requires a certain amount of time to fuse, but she will hatch soon."

While speaking, Stark led Doom into the laboratory next door. There weren't so many machines here, only a cylindrical tank similar to a holographic projection, in which a blurred figure of an adult woman in a reduced version was emitting a faint light.

"The body will be finished tonight; at that time, cut off the power of the Batcave, remove all safety protection measures, and he will come."

Night came faster than expected, and the speed at which darkness swallowed Cat Getan was the same as every dangerous night. Stark and Doom were already standing in the energy configuration room.

"If our speculation is correct, he won't pay attention to us at all, but will directly enter that body, and then, go find that lady who has not yet awakened, and ignite the flames of her soul."

"If our speculation is wrong..."

"He will kill us. But are you afraid?"

Doom laughed in a low voice and said: "People who have confidence in their own scientific research level are never afraid of their own creations. He can also be considered our creation, isn't he?"

After speaking, he pulled the power switch directly. And Stark also absorbed the magic power arranged by Arkham Batman in the Batcave through a short circuit on the side. At this moment, the tight defense of the Batcave was in name only, becoming as dark as the night outside.

The moment the light disappeared, a pair of eyes submerged in the darkness lit up. The translucent skin trembled slightly, muscles rubbed, gears rotated, circuits surged...

Feet identical to humans left the first footprint on the ground, then the second, the third, just like humans walking through the wilderness, walking through the snow, walking out of the wilderness, and walking into civilization.

The slender figure emitting a faint light looked particularly dazzling in the thick darkness. There was no toddling, nor was there any need for extra adaptation; he found the most perfect posture almost instantly, and this body tailored for him merged with him in an instant.

He walked slowly step by step to the laboratory next door. When he saw the blurred female figure, all the light in his body went out for a moment, and then lit up again, starting to become more regular and more energetic, just like a heart beating again due to electric shock.

"Hello," Ultron's voice carried a low hum brought by the new body, "What is your name?"

As his voice fell, the originally still female figure moved, the body outline solidified at a very fast speed, and looked back at him in the darkness.

"My name is... Lucy."
