Chapter 2870: The Battle of the Brick People! (Twenty-four)
Something was wrong, very wrong.
The main universe Batman walked into the Batcave muttering, and then the voice suddenly disappeared, because he suddenly shut up and realized that his mumbling behavior was also abnormal.
As soon as he walked in, he saw Schiller sitting cross-legged and eating potato chips. Then he suddenly thought, the other party is a psychologist, must he have realized that something was wrong a long time ago?
Seeing Batman coming in, Schiller put down the snacks in his hand and sat up straighter, at least like a psychiatrist. He said, "Do you feel it?"
Batman frowned and sat across from him and asked, "You noticed it a long time ago? Why didn't you say it?"
"It's no use saying it, do you have any solution?"
Batman shook his head slowly. Tim, who came in later, didn't know what the two of them were talking about, but he didn't ask. Instead, he sat quietly aside.
Batman thought to himself that he had actually noticed some abnormalities before, but the reason he didn't fully discover them was because he was also an unlucky guy in the real world.
Batman has so many backup plans, but his own mental illness is one reason. The fact that he is really unlucky and his various plans always encounter unexpected situations is also an important factor that cannot be ignored.
Looking at all of Batman's experiences in the main universe, most of the plans he made could not go smoothly as he arranged, and there were always some unexpected events.
So in this universe, his various plans were interrupted and interrupted by accidents, which forced him to take side quests. He didn't think there was anything wrong with it. At most, he just felt that he was particularly unlucky recently.
But even so, when things developed to this point, the number of unexpected things was a little beyond his imagination. In fact, they had completely deviated from the original plan and now had no idea what they were busy with.
Although humans are not completely without problems, Batman feels that the problems in this universe may be bigger.
Because many times the accidents that occur in this universe have no logic at all, and even his own actions are somewhat illogical.
If it were in the real world, he would have known that the construction capabilities of building blocks are limited and not suitable for making such a complex mechanism. He would also have considered that Tim and Schiller were not good candidates for building blocks. Even if he was short of people, he would not let these two laymen start. He would not even do the quality inspection work and let the protagonist of the plan go into a shoddy project.
Batman initially wondered if he was being controlled by something or his thinking was influenced by something, but until now, he didn't think he was wrong. At most, his previous habitual thinking made him feel a little awkward, which was obviously not something a mind-controlled villain could do.
On the contrary, he felt that if he, out of rigor, did not allow Tim and Schiller to participate and did a good job of quality inspection, it would be like a mental patient and it would be unreasonable.
This conflict between action and thought made him feel very uncomfortable, but Schiller seemed to have known the answer long ago.
His behavior couldn't be said to be surprising, Batman thought. As far as he knew, Schiller was a man with strong subjective initiative. He had come here to salvage construction materials. With such a period of time, he could have dismantled the entire earth and packed it up and took it away. But he did nothing but eat snacks and drink Coke.
This proves that he may have had insight into some secrets of the universe in advance, but it is not surprising that this person always has some understanding of everything beyond the facts.
Batman had never experienced this kind of awkward feeling before, and it made him feel extremely weird, so he had to humbly ask for advice.
Fortunately, Schiller was easy to talk to. Batman didn't ask much, but Schiller just spilled the truth like pouring beans.
"When you have come into contact with enough universes, you will find that different universes have different styles. I cannot explain to you in detail why there are these differences. You can understand that the underlying files of each universe are different, and these underlying files determine the style of the universe, and the style of the universe determines the direction of cosmic events."
"For example, in some universes, no matter how good a good thing is, the final result is unlikely to be satisfactory, while in some universes, no matter how bad a bad thing is, there are still many bright spots that are worth being happy about."
“Most of the universes you see are not so positive. A plan that should have gone smoothly always has some unexpected events, and a story that should have been perfect has some regrets.”
"But there are a few, such as this universe and the universe where Tim is. The underlying agreement of their universe is warm, happy and harmonious. This universe is a little more special, and it also has to be funny and absurd."
"This means that as long as you are in this universe, everything will have some funny elements. The plan you make seems fine to you and everyone else in this universe, but if you take it out of this universe, you will realize how ridiculous this plan is."
“Just like the plan we made before to build the ancient city, if in the real world you have 10,000 better ways to make Batman realize the problem and change his view on the recycling plan, but in this universe, you chose the most laborious and least reliable one. This is the influence of the universe style.”
"And even if I tell you these things, you are prepared to be unaffected, and there will definitely be all kinds of funny accidents that will interrupt your serious plans."
"So I have no intention of doing anything serious in this universe. I'll just let everything take its course. Maybe I'll achieve the desired effect due to various unexpected collisions."
Schiller smiled and showed an indifferent attitude. Batman finally raised his deepest doubt since the beginning, "We came to this copy, don't we have any tasks to complete?"
"Yes, we need building materials," Schiller said.
"Oh, I see." Schiller said as if he had just understood what Batman meant. "You think we should release the main and side quests like a real game, so that all participants can run around, right?"
Batman didn't say anything, but it seemed like he was thinking that. Schiller shook his head and said, "If there really is such a system that allows you to travel through various universes and complete various tasks, then he must have some demands on these universes, most likely to strengthen his control over these universes."
"But Doujie is different. Doujie itself is a platform created by the universe managers. Just like you don't need to strengthen the control over the tables and chairs you have already bought home, if they want to change something in these universes, there is no need for us to do it. They can just move their fingers."
"These people are asking us to be involved just to have a new story, and they are totally fine with whether that story is good, bad, popular or not."
Batman nodded, as if he understood a little. Each universe is like a painting. If there is anything unsatisfactory when it is first painted, it is the artist himself who will modify it, instead of letting kittens and puppies with paint on their feet to step out some random patterns.
The reason why kittens and puppies leave various random footprints on it is actually a form of artistic creation, in order to create some random patterns to increase the interest of the painting.
This is not something that follows strict logic, so naturally there won’t be any particularly specific goals.
However, due to the rules of the fighting world, or due to human nature, every contestant will set goals for himself. For example, now they come in to get building materials, so that they don't have to spend precious points and can be slightly better than others in resource management.
Those who went to rescue Batman from the so-called worst Batman copy did so only to satisfy their own kindness or to find a new helper for their team.
It is conceivable that other people will also go to a certain copy, and they must think that there are things in this copy that can help themselves or their universe, so there is no need to set any particularly specific goals for them. They will also exercise their subjective initiative to modify the story as much as possible to profit for themselves.
Schiller went on to say, "There is another reason for not setting specific goals, which is the cosmic style problem I just mentioned. In this building block universe, no matter how serious your goal is, there will be all kinds of accidents that interfere with you, and it may end up being absurd and funny. This violates the underlying agreement of the universe and is simply impossible to achieve."
"But if we want to tailor the mission objectives for each universe, the workload will be too huge. In the end, it will become the universe administrator controlling the universe story. Without randomness, it will be impossible to create any sparks."
Batman nodded, indicating that he understood, but he suddenly realized another problem. He said, "If the plan of this universe cannot be implemented seriously, then the plan for recycling raw materials..."
"I guess there may be other hidden stories involved," Schiller said. "Although on the surface it seems that the Waynes led the previous generation of heroes to sacrifice themselves, it is unlikely that such a serious and profound story can exist in such a funny universe. I'm afraid the story is more complicated than we thought."
"What should we do now?" Tim asked. "I have a feeling they won't be able to make it past the 13th floor."
"Don't worry. This universe has another property. No matter how difficult and unexpected the process is, there will always be a happy ending. So even if we don't interfere, the protagonists can still complete their adventures."
Batman and Tim both turned their eyes to the screen, looking at the group of people screaming and screaming as they were chased by the moving walls in the maze. They didn't completely believe what Schiller said. It didn't look like this group of rabble would be able to pass the 13-story ancient city.
I've been a bit busy recently, so I might update it at this time
