Marvel's The Dark Knight Rises

Chapter 87 My Gotham
If the portal of the dream machine determines the return location according to the location when the host opened the teleportation, then Bruce and his mutant team members should still be trekking on the endless ice field. Who told him to teleport from here to "" What about the Wolverine world?
However, the teleportation function of the dream machine probably also took this into consideration, and it is quite "understanding", setting a return to a fixed coordinate.

So no matter where in the world Bruce teleports from, when he returns, he will only return to one place, and that is, home.

Not long after everyone passed through the light gate, the portal quickly shrank until it became a light spot, and then disappeared. In the darkness, Bruce turned his back on everyone and smiled wryly.

The first time he went to the branch world, he brought back six people. According to the task points required by each person is half of the task points he spent to open the portal this time, which is half of 500 points. He will pay 1500 points for this. point.

In addition to the 500 points he would have to spend himself, the 6500 task points instantly became 4500. Thinking about the anti-superman armor in the dream store, 20000, it is really far away...

"Boss, where is it?"

Seeing that Bruce hadn't spoken for a long time, John couldn't help asking softly, this place looks like a closed room, I don't know how big the space is, and it's dark all around, it's strange to stay for a long time, and it's strange to feel uncomfortable.

"Well, I missed it... Bradley, turn on the light."

Bruce came back to his senses, put down the container with Remy, turned and said to Bradley.

Almost at the moment when he finished speaking, the light tube above his head trembled slightly, and after a series of light sounds, the day-like light from the roof dispelled the darkness in this space. Bradley opened his eyes, Looking at everything around him, he was speechless.

Wide, this space is very wide, just by looking at it with the naked eye, it is estimated to be the size of a standard football field.

At this time, rows of clean and brand-new light tubes are neatly arranged on the snow-white ceiling, and the smooth steel floor reflects a cool light under the bright light.

But the most eye-catching thing is the row of dozens of strange chariots placed in front of everyone, as well as the large weapon racks that are packed full.

"This…"

Bruce didn't know what to say, this is the basement he and Alfred opened up before, he knew what it was like before, but now...

He spent more than two months in the branch world, and before entering the Wolverine world, he knew that the time flow ratio of the branch world and the main world in "Wolverine 1" was 1:8.

The ratio is not too exaggerated, and he didn't plan to return to the world of "Wolverine 1", so he stayed in the branch world for a while, and only a year and a half had passed since he wanted to come to the main world.

But now it seems that Alfred has done many amazing things during this period of time.

"master?"

A call suddenly came from the headset, the voice was very familiar, and the voice also made the corners of Bruce's mouth subconsciously rise.

"Alfred, I'm back...old man, I missed you."

Bruce said with a smile, pondered for a moment, and added this sentence for no reason, and everyone behind him looked at each other in dismay.

It's not that Bruce was not gentle enough to them, but that the man in front of him who was cold, resolute and decisive most of the time showed such warmth at this time, which was beyond their expectations.

Who is this Alfred?

"Master, did you cause trouble again in that world?" Alfred's tone was still calm and gentle, but in Bruce's ears, how could it be so teasing?
"Otherwise, it would be difficult for me to hear that sentence. Normally, when you miss me, it's time for me to wipe your ass."

Bruce: "..."

"Welcome back, sir, your 'Empire' has been waiting for its dark leader for too long... I have to deal with some things in the group tonight, and I will come back to pick you up tomorrow morning, by the way, the elevator is behind the weapon rack , when you go up, don’t be surprised by what you see, and finally, I’ve missed you too, sir, while you’re away.”

After hearing this, Bruce smiled knowingly, feeling that Alfred was about to cut off the communication, Bruce couldn't help saying: "Last question, Alfred."

After finding the elevator button behind the weapon rack, Bruce leaned against the steel wall and said curiously, "I just came back, so you already know, did you install some kind of monitor in this basement?"

Alfred was silent for a moment, but slowly said: "I feel it... the moment you reappeared in this world, just like when you left."

**********
The "home" Bruce had known, the small detached apartment that he and Alfred had lived in for over a decade, was gone.

Instead, it was an ancient castle-style manor with an unknown area.

Of course, only the central building can be used normally, and the passages leading to other buildings have been blocked with sand. Obviously, this big project has not yet come to an end.

Soft bright yellow lights shine on every corner of the building. Antique utensils from various countries with a sense of age decorate this newly built young manor. Gorgeous broad carpets and oiled wooden walls can be seen everywhere. crystal charms...

"I really didn't expect that you are so rich!"

Remy was holding a bottle of white wine of unknown age, and while gulping it down recklessly, he walked up to Bruce, who still hadn't recovered, and said "satisfied".

They were standing on the spacious balcony protruding from the building at this time. Looking forward from here, they could see the huge city of lights not far away, which was New York, which was developing rapidly.

"Why did you come here... Where are they? Are they eating well?"

Bruce turned his head to look at Remy, opened his mouth, and replied casually, not knowing how to answer Remy's words.

He has never lived such a life before. In the past, he had to cook his own meals... Who would have thought that Alfred would build such a luxurious manor for him in just over a year, although Not yet finished.

"I've eaten a long time ago, so much food..."

Remy shook his head, as if he remembered not long ago, when Bruce brought them to the first floor, before he had time to marvel at the magnificence of the manor, a middle-aged man who claimed to be the housekeeper walked up to Bruce respectfully , Said that the man named Alfred ordered them to have dinner first.

Then the butler led them to a dining table that was big enough to seat 20 people. The table was full of various delicacies and luxurious drinks, which made everyone who had eaten simple meals for more than ten days stare blankly.

Listening to Remy's rambling words, Bruce didn't speak, but shook his head with a smile, and then looked at the city in front of him, with an inexplicable light in his eyes, which made Remy curious.

"Is that New York? It looks a little different from ours... You don't need to be so exaggerated when you go home? Look at your eyes..."

"Do not."

Bruce looked at the city he had guarded for many years, and said decisively with a smile.

"what?"

"This is not the city you know, Remy, she is different."

"New York, isn't it all New York? It is both the city of sin and the city of light."

"It's different." Bruce shook his head stubbornly.

"Look, the sky above the city."

"What's so interesting? Isn't it just...um?"

In the sky above the huge city, there are several distinctive searchlights looming. Those lights are faintly visible among the thick clouds, but they have never been cut off, even though their owners have left the city for more than a year.

"Why are there so many bat-shaped lights?"

Bruce stared intently at the "bats" looking down on New York City, and said slowly, "Those are hopes."

"After it is lit, it will never disappear from people's hearts, hope."

"And this city..."

"It is the place I will always guard."

"My 'Gotham.'"
