Chapter 1286 Greedy Cicada Catching (Part 2)

Chapter 1279 Greedy Catch Cicada (Part 2)

Spider-Man 2099's state can only be described as "If you don't think ahead, you will have immediate worries." He can't foresee what kind of changes this technology exchange will bring to his world. He doesn't know whether it's good or bad, but the technology Peter brought directly draws energy from the sun.

Does he have a choice? Actually no.

The space stations of those rich people certainly have solar technology, but it's far from being so efficient and low-cost. The important thing is that it's low-cost. Peter, the Iron Man of the universe, does everything he can to lower the cost of Mercury's solar energy extraction machine and give him more funds for research on materials science.

The more money it costs to research materials, the more money the Mercury outpost has to save. What's more terrifying is that a certain Eastern power has made this technology not only save money, but also easy to assemble and quickly build. It's best that when others are still doing the first round of development, they have already completed the fifth round of speed clearance. There's nothing else, the main focus is on speed.

Of course, all countries on Earth have taken different paths. Some think it should be bigger, some think it should be lighter, some think the sun should be dug deeper, and some have turned their attention to other stars.

But no matter what, technology progresses through trial and error. When it comes to Spider-Man 2099, it has become a delicious meal that people can't refuse, and the cost of the meal is just some space station technology. Even if the poor people keep this technology, they don't have the energy to run it.

In this case, why not exchange? As for the technical barriers or post-maintenance issues, the fire has burned to the eyebrows, who cares about the nose?

In this way, the first step of the multiverse dispatch plan was successfully taken. Just as Peter Parker was introducing the plan to Stark and Strange, Batman said in Schiller's mind: "So, you have landed on Mercury, established a series of bases there, and started to extract energy from the sun?"

"You are not accurate, we have done more than that." Schiller replied: "We not only extract energy from the sun, but have even begun to study the technology of artificial stars. The Andromeda Galaxy is a good experimental field. Did I tell you what they had encountered before?"

"Unfortunately, this poor galaxy once lost a star. Of course, it has nothing to do with us. It's just a terrible natural disaster, but it doesn't prevent us from being kind and rebuilding a star for them."

"Magneto, the best among mutants, is already trying this. They hope to be able to research this technology before ordinary humans, and then sell this technology to us in exchange for greater benefits for mutants."

"Can I go to the Mercury base to take a look?" Batman Schiller made a request that was not excessive, but he felt a little embarrassed. He could only say to Batman: "Look at their attitude towards me now. Do they seem to let me take risks on Mercury?"

"So how sick are you?"

"I'm not sick at all."

"Do you believe it yourself?"

"Batman, now is not the time for you to be aggressive." Schiller pointed this out without hesitation: "You are a friend of Arrogance, but not mine. You should understand why I am called Greedy. You went to the Mercury base just because you were jealous of our technology."

"You are very confused about how Arrogance can bring Gotham back to the sun, and whether this technology can be learned and copied, but I can tell you that the answer is yes, and the key lies in energy."

"For tens of thousands of years, all the iterations of human development achievements have been for energy, more energy, cleaner energy, more controllable energy, and even forever sustainable energy."

The greedy tone revealed a madness that Batman could not understand, which was completely different from the madness of Arrogance, but it was equally frightening.

Batman had already seen Schiller's madness, so he also had an irrepressible curiosity about another kind of madness.

If greed and arrogance are equally crazy, and the madness of arrogance can even make the Joker collapse, then what can the madness of greed do?

"What I have done in this world, and what I am most proud of, is to let humans touch the sun."

"For thousands of years, the sun has been the most beloved planet of mankind. We have written countless romantic poems for it, and with an extremely sincere heart, we thank it for its gift."

"But humans have never been a kind and sincere race. These disgusting negative emotions are our origin. Everything we have done to this day contains our most fundamental concerns and fears about the sun - what if one day, it doesn't shine?"

"Our love for the sun has long turned into hatred and desire for control. We want to completely control the sun, let it shine for us, let it must shine for us, and if it is not bright enough, then change it to shine."

The arrogance revealed in the greedy tone surprised Batman, and he even felt that greed was the real arrogance.

"One day, we will tell the sun that it was not it that created us, but we will create it. We will understand the truth of the universe more thoroughly than a naturally formed star, and we will be able to control it thoroughly and deeply. We will no longer be afraid of any natural disasters in the universe, or in other words, let us become the real natural disasters."

Although Schiller was lying on the hospital bed, blinking constantly as if he was about to fall asleep, another figure sat next to Batman in the theater. Their way of communicating was completely different from that of Pride and Batman. Instead of communication, it's greed that infects Batman with his madness.

It's amazing how Batman can be infected with another kind of madness.

But the fact is that Batman's depth and darkness are far from over. Greedy Schiller constantly reminds him of this - the so-called darkness is not the control of a certain city or certain groups, but the control of the entire The real darkness that controls all things in the universe and all concepts within reach should be greed.

"Humans once cruelly killed gods." Greedy's ups and downs tone, as if he was drunk, kept blinking his eyes and said: "This is what humans are best at, killing with something boiling. The mystery that exists in the concept becomes more cruel the more it boils."

"No one in my universe has any respect for the sun anymore, because they all know that it is just a large energy engine. Now, we are extracting energy from it for our own use, and one day , the sun goes out, but we will still move forward.”

"Why should we be afraid of things that are created by coincidence? You and I both know that the birth of all stars in the universe comes from coincidence, and the city you are in is the same."

"Indeed, it is so unfortunate that it has become the source of darkness in the universe, and you are so unfortunate to be born here and encounter a series of tragedies, but that is not the end."

"The birth of human beings is also a tragedy. When the first human set foot on the mainland, wild beasts were surrounding us and there were many powerful enemies. However, we were powerless. Compared with those enemies with sharp teeth and claws, we were no match for them. No advantage."

"Then we began to learn to collect sticks, drilled wood to make fire, and ignited the first pile of flames. What does this mean? It means that we finally control our own destiny, and it means that we have something that other beasts do not have."

"The fire that was lit for the first time is what you have that no one else has. It's called - 'wisdom'."

"But you seem to have been ashamed of this, thinking that you have stolen something. If you don't give back to society in the most straightforward and violent way, you will look like a complete coward."

"You obviously have the ability to light a fire that no one else can ignite in such a deep and rich darkness, so that those damn and so-called destined curses can be completely burned out, and make the gods cry and tremble over it, but you can You didn't do it because you weren't greedy enough."

"Batman, Batman..." The greedy voice echoed in the theater.

Batman found that he would always be fascinated by Schiller's tone of voice, every word he said, and every point he made, and this shouldn't be because Schiller is the Joker, and Batman shouldn't listen to the Joker. say.

"If you have a burning ambition that is so strong that it burns down everything in the world, no matter how rich the darkness is, it cannot trap the flame ignited by greed."

"You have to think more, want more, feel that the fire lit in front of you will never have enough firewood, and then make more firewood."

"Don't think of those criminals as enemies, think of them as necessary fuel in the flames. Their madness is not as good as their wisdom, so they burn brightly."

"Arrogance has proven to you that this path is feasible. Ask them to burn themselves for you. They are obviously willing to do so..."

"They are obviously willing to follow you, always worship you, fall in love with you, and always regard you as a god, but you just left them in the snowy night."

"Don't be so cruel, Batman." Schiller closed his eyes and leaned back on the chair, saying in a soft and gentle tone: "Don't let these woods burn out in the dark night, let them condense into a bigger flame and burn Through the clouds and darkness of destiny.”

"How greedy are you to not let go of a group of mentally ill people?" Batman turned around and stared into greedy eyes and said, "You don't even let yourself go, and you even want to burn yourself."

"This is greed!" Greedy said with a higher tone: "We are not arrogant and regard everyone as firewood, but we like that kind of flame too much, and are fascinated and fascinated by it, so we don't care at all about investing ourselves in it and working for it. Let’s strive for a bright future.”

"Batman, don't tell me you are such a coward." Schiller began to chant again, but his tone was completely different from arrogance. He was not indifferent, but even full of enthusiasm and passion.

It can be heard that he loves everyone, and no one can say such crazy things if he does not love such a dynamic emotion.

"Because of your own shame and sense of morality, you dare not let the firewood you left in the darkness burn yourself for a greater goal. Your arrogant friend should not be such a coward."

"You should let them come into your heart, merge into your heart, among the things you desire most. Light a fire, burn yourself out, and at the same time disperse the dark clouds over Gotham, let those damn curses, Go to hell."

"You know what to do. You know that when the clown blows up the chemical plant, certain compounds in the bomb can react with chemical materials to create unparalleled chemical agents. You know that he is here for this, And you were secretly happy because of it, but you just ignored him..."

"You know that Mr. Freeze's ice can even freeze the sun. You know that he is so eager for you to throw yourself into the sun and let him shoot the star down."

"You know that Scarecrow can change the atmosphere of the entire earth, allowing humans to evolve into stronger creatures, allowing them to have bodies that are easier to absorb oxygen, making their brains work faster, and making everyone an unparalleled genius. You know that he is looking forward to you doing this."

"You know that Gotham is not your obstacle, but your treasure, just like this earth is my treasure, but you are so cruel and cowardly that you ignore their talents and only treat them as criminals."

"No, no, no, it's not because you hate them, nor is it because you are kind and moral enough, but because you are not ambitious enough-you are not greedy enough."

"This is the only reason why arrogance brought you here." Greedy took a deep breath and said in a crying tone: "You should be greedier than greed, but you act like a coward, making all greed cry for it."

"Don't do this, Batman, don't do this, don't destroy your inner My heart, don't lock me up in a small corner of your mind and let me cry helplessly and desperately. "

"Now, open the door of the cell, embrace him, embrace what you should have done under his drive, love him, and merge with him, just like you did with arrogance."

"Don't abandon me so superficially, don't treat me as original sin as the world knows me, you can identify with arrogance, and you can identify with me..."

"...You will definitely identify with me!"

When the voice of greed echoed in the theater, Batman realized that Schiller was not the Joker, he was something else, something more rational, something more crazy.

If Batman wants to give a definite answer now, it will be like the game he has played with the Joker countless times, just like the Joker tortured him countless times, Schiller is not the Joker himself, but human nature itself.

Schiller represents the side of human nature that can burst out from the bottom of the heart at any time and anywhere, and cannot be restricted at all.

How much Batman loves the sun, how many times he has imagined the intoxicating warmth of the sun shining on him, how much he hates the sun, hates this star that was born only because of luck, and has never shone on him.

But greed tells him, not Schiller's greed, but his own greed tells him that he has the wisdom and ability to make the sun bend for him and let the sun be under his control.

He wants the sun to shine on Gotham, and the sun must shine on Gotham, because if it is not bright enough, then Batman will change a star.

This is not difficult at all, because he is Batman.

His principles of only circling around a city, not killing people, and not being cold to the end, which are ridiculed and criticized by everyone, are ultimately attributed to a light sentence, he is not greedy enough.

All attributed to his lack of ambition, he does not want enough, he cannot release the greed that is imprisoned in the corner of his heart and is considered to be the original sin by the world like Schiller.

In the theater, Batman turned his head and saw not Schiller's greed, but another him.

That represented the terrible greed that he had never lost but had never indulged.
