Chapter 892: Habits of owls

In the dark and decayed hut, several people stood in a circle slightly crowded. This kind of scene was like a bad guy in a meeting, whispering in low voices and carrying out shady conspiracies.
But half of the people present are members of the Justice League, which is very interesting.
If possible, Su Ming can of course send them to places like Midtown, find a coffee shop, everyone drinks coffee under the beautiful parasols, eats bear claw bread and talks about plans.
Unfortunately, this plan is to be implemented in Gotham. If it is not dark and hidden from beginning to end, then it must be useless.
The plans that Bruce made in the bat cave were generally effective, and when he arrived in the justice hall, although he made the master control room like a bat cave, it was claustrophobic and small.
But he was in no state there, and almost all the plans he came up with were not going well.
Either being used by the enemy, or losing the chain by one's own person, it's almost killing someone.
To put it bluntly, it is not dark enough.
Sometimes Su Ming still believes in metaphysics, and there is no way to explain things, so just follow the world's conventions, and there is no need to be different in such things.
In Gotham, like most cities in the United States, citizens are also superstitious.
For example, if they meet a black cat when they go out in the morning, they think that they are going to be unlucky today; for example, when a colleague finds thirteen people on the table during a dinner, they will think that someone is about to die; another example is if they are caught by a gypsy woman, then they will Think the devil is looking at him.
Wait for such taboos, Gotham and other places are the same.
I believe that some actions or experiences can bring good luck, and some are not.
As a mercenary, you often need to go out, so for these unclear things, I would rather trust them to be true than not.
Facing Oliver's support, Su Ming took out the Godkiller and played with it as an illumination, and at the same time answered him in a deep but clear way.
"Yes, I laughed and chose Bat Owl. He must have taken a fancy to something in the hands of the Owl Court in the Overworld. Then the mission of the Bat Owl is to use these powers, so his position at this time should be in the Overworld, Gotham, somewhere in Owl. In the stronghold of the court, that is his bat cave."
"Do you have ideas?" Thomas asked. If the Owl Court is true, he recalled some people who claim to represent the true power of Gotham, who had contacted him decades ago...
"Ah, that's right." Su Ming turned the godslayer into a meteor hammer, and the light emitted by the circle was more even and brighter: "We talked about Bruce's great-great-grandfather, one of Gotham's greatest architects. One, Alan Wayne."
"Well, he has a problem?" Thomas frowned.
Su Ming shook his head: "No, if he has a problem, he won't die in the sewer. He died because of uncompromising. Let go of the secret history of your family first. What I want to say is another thing, that is— —In addition to an architect, he is also a master of metaphysics."
"Huh?" Diana shrank her neck, showing a strange expression.
"In short, he believes all the metaphysics we sometimes believe in. For example, he doesn't want to go out to see black cats, so he wears very dark sunglasses all the time. If he is not at home, he never sits at the same table with others. Eating, etc., this habit also extends to his works."
Su Ming smiled at her.
It sounds absurd, but one hundred and fifty years ago, how much do you expect humans to believe in science?
At that time, idealism was the mainstream of the world. "I think, therefore I am" was a common concept of senior intellectuals at that time. What objective existence? If you don't have consciousness, you don't exist.
Everyone's eyes fell on the death knell, except for Mackenzie, who had nothing to do with her but just watching the excitement, everyone else was waiting for the explanation of the death knell.
"The reason Allen is a genius is that the high-quality buildings he designed are of good quality, and they still exist. Although it is thirty or forty floors, it doesn’t seem to be a big deal today, but at the time, Gotham was just established not long after it was established. It's not a city. With such tall buildings, it's second only to big cities like New York and Washington."
"Hmm...so?" Diana tilted her head for a while, but found no inevitable connection.
"When building the building, he would skip the thirteenth floor because of his metaphysical theory." Su Ming spread his hands and said the answer: "It's not like other cities where the 13th floor is directly replaced with the 14th floor. That’s it. He chose to build Gotham’s famous
12 and a half floors,
or mezzanine."
"I know that in the tall buildings of Gotham Building, there is a low mezzanine above the twelfth floor. It is not very high. It can only allow people to straighten up and there is no means to enter. Building the fourteenth floor is Gotham’s unique style, but I didn’t expect to have such a connection with the Wayne family."
Thomas nodded and approved the death knell statement. Gotham’s buildings are indeed like this. Originally, he thought it was just an artistic method established by the designers.
"In fact, there is a way to get in. The twelfth and a half floors also have windows. After all, even if there are no windows, others will count the 14th floor as the thirteenth floor when counting the floors from the outside, so the people who live on the 14th floor are definitely not happy. Su Ming smiled.
Oliver nodded. This kind of problem also exists elsewhere: "But after Allen did something like this, he saw that there are 13 floors on the outside. If I actually enter the building and take the elevator and take the stairs, the 13th floor does not exist. No one will be dissatisfied. ."
"For ordinary people, it is impossible for ordinary people to climb the outer wall of the building to the twelfth floor with their bare hands, but for Sharp Claw, it is easy."
Su Ming stirred the weapon in his hand, rotated it to watch the golden light move on everyone, and said quietly.
"The Owl Court uses these twelve and a half floors as their base?" Everyone understood this time, the death knell went around to illustrate this matter.
"It's the base of action for the Talons.'Beware of the Owl Court and always monitor your travel'. If there is no base all over the city, how can they dare to say that in the era without monitoring equipment and satellites?" Su Ming smiled indifferently: "Ai As a master architect, his apprentices also imitated his approach of having the best of both worlds. Since then, all the tall buildings in Gotham have mezzanine."
"He left Gotham with twenty tall buildings and countless basic buildings in his life. His students have been building Gotham..." The expression on Thomas's face became more serious, deep He sighed deeply.
"Don't worry about this, these buildings in the main world have been cleaned up by Bruce, and they are still monitoring every day, no problem, so he ruled out 99% of the wrong options for us, and the Laughing Bat ruled out Wayne for me. Tower, then there are not many options."
Su Ming stretched out his hand, put away the godslayer, and the surroundings became pitch black.
"Does this know where it is?" Arthur was a little confused.
The red one-eyed eye of the death knell floated towards the door in the dark, fast: "Pay attention to the habit of robbing the enemy’s nest. There are not many owls on the beach, right?
"That's right, the most I have seen since I was a child are albatross and seagulls. Owls are not in Port Cien anyway."
Arthur thought for a while and shook his head. His trident is now a light source, but the blue gloom makes it look like a haunted house.
"Then I will teach you a little bit of death knell. Owls are one of several birds in nature that do not build their own nests. They only occupy abandoned nests, or occupy their nests after killing hostile birds. Interesting The thing is, after occupying the nest, they tend to manage the nest very carefully, dressing up more beautifully than other birds."
Su Ming smiled and opened the squeaky door, the doorknob shattered into pieces in his hand, and he then threw it aside.
Oliver walked out of the room and looked at the sea not far away. He narrowed his eyes uncomfortably: "This is true. Owls are very good at skinning mice. The nests they snatched are covered with rat skin carpets, man, Birds will lay carpets."
"Why are there always rats?" Diana asked numbly.
"For the Owl Court, the civilians in Gotham are all rats and their prey. It's that simple." Su Ming took out the communication terminal, adjusted the frequency, looked at the sea and started talking: "Prodigy, you shame How is the team progressing?"
The black boy with a bomb head appeared on the small screen, and he said admiringly: "You are a bad old man, you are really good, we found the mad Batman, in one of the places you said. "
This kid who has been in the society since childhood is habitually spitting fragrance. Su Ming doesn't care about swearing, but he digs out his ears a little care: "Wait, when did I become a bad old man? I am not what you used to be. The death knell I knew."
"The ghost knows how old you are. You don't seem to be thirty years old, but is that the real age? You may have lived in which world for hundreds of years. The fallen knight has already mastered your intelligence, Justice League level intelligence. "
The child prodigy showed an expression that he knew everything. Besides, he was only 17 years old. These long-established masked men are all bad old men to him.
He is not only black, but also an orphan, a minor, a mentally ill person, an animal protectionist, gay, plus a scientific genius, so he is always right.
It's so confident and beautiful, huh~
Seeing that the child prodigy on the small screen took out a small mirror to fill up the powder and put on bright lip gloss, Su Ming saw the building behind him, determined the location, and shuddered and hung up the communication:
"Okay, let's go over."
After speaking, he quickly put away the communicator, and touched his arm, as if he was planning to put the cold hair back.
But strangling did it for him. It entered every hair follicle, controlled the relaxation of the pores around them, and solved the problem of host goose bumps.
"Huh...the young man now, really..."
Oliver couldn't help but sighed. Fortunately, Mieko was normal, great.
Su Ming turned around and held his forehead ~EbookFREE.me~ while opening the portal, he said to Oliver: "You know? If you have a child in the future, you must not let him live with your mother. It is best to throw it away when you are young. Going to Purgatory Island and making him a murderer is better than mental illness."
Diana also patted Green Arrow on the shoulder. Oliver and Dinah are most likely to have children: "If it's a girl, consider Paradise Island."
After speaking, she smiled and walked into the portal. McKenzie didn't know why she came to join in the fun. She seemed to know something and smelled beside Oliver.
"You're good, your soul is dark and full of sins. Consider our for your children's education."
Green Arrow:"......"
Why do people think that their children will be problem children? I don't even have a wife, where's the child?
But the death knell said that, there must be something wrong, and if you have time, you have to ask Barry to help you through the speed of the force to be relieved...
