2167 Side Story: Fantasy Journey 8

There was another reason why Luke had proactively joined the upper circle — it was because of the issue of equipment.

As he had speculated before, just like when he had gone to 2023 Marvel, most of his inventory had been ‘left behind.’

The difference was that in 2023 Marvel, he could access about a third of his inventory.

The situation in DC was even worse, and he could only use one tenth of it.

For his main body back home, it felt like one tenth of Space 1 and 2 had ‘disappeared.’

This completely eliminated the possibility of him using his inventory to move supplies and living people across planes.

It was impossible for the Marvel Bat Squad to enter a DC instance together.

DC had too many lunatic villains; General Zod’s team alone was enough to torture Earth’s heroes.

Also, there were DC comics and some movies from 2023 Marvel which Luke had skimmed through in the last few days.

This was also one of the few items he had brought back from 2023 — there was no way he could cause a space-time backlash by viewing DC comics and movies in the Marvel universe, right?

Who the hell knew which DC universe he was in, but it wouldn’t be unusual for a popular villain like Darkseid to appear.

After all, this guy could be said to be DC’s Thanos, or maybe Thanos was Marvel’s Darkseid. The two were very similar.

So, after investigating for a few months, Luke decided to let the Level 3 clone do whatever it wanted here.

At most, he wasted… hm, just 7.35 million credit points. In the past few months, Gotham City had already provided him with 2.65 million credit points.

Since he was prepared to reap a harvest here, he naturally had to have money and power.

Not only did it make it convenient for him to move around, he could also replenish the materials he needed.

This time, he had used the Pym Particle to shrink a bunch of emergency equipment and bring them with him.

He also shrunk a small number of key industrial motherships to bring over.

Thanks to this critical equipment and abundant raw materials, he recovered a small portion of his equipment production ability in the past few months.

Compared with when he first came here, he felt much safer.

It had to be pointed out that Master Wayne was also a ‘pay-to-win player’ who took his flying Batmobile out every now and then and made Gotham’s police choke.

Luke wasn’t as tyrannical as Master Wayne, especially when he had the ability to make better equipment.

After the Battle of Wakanda in particular, when they had relied on numbers to crush Thanos’s fleet, he valued equipment even more.

Even if he couldn’t crush his opponent, at the very least, he couldn’t let himself be crushed.

Bruce Bale was high-profile, while the Dark Knight naturally kept a low profile. This made Master Wayne, who wanted to ‘have a chat’ with the Dark Knight, very depressed.

He had gone running over when Knight caused an incident once or twice, but couldn’t find him no matter how hard he tried.

Luke, who was busy building an invisible force, wouldn’t meet Master Wayne at this moment, because he didn’t want to see this guy flaunt his wealth.

Tony and Master Wayne had a lot in common in this regard.

It had already been half a year since Luke arrived in Gotham.

Today, Bruce Bale attended a party at Lex Corporation.

Luke was a little interested in Lex Corporation because it had a lot of high-tech industries, and he had earmarked it as a possible ‘shell subsidiary company.’

However, Lex Luthor, the real mastermind behind the corporation, was a recluse. When Luke couldn’t find Lex after investigating for a few days, he chose another candidate from his long list.

As for using Bruce Bale’s identity to attend the party tonight, it was because something interesting had happened.

Taking a sip of his champagne, Luke said indifferently to a lady in front of him, “Sorry, I just saw a friend.”

The lady nodded blankly, her starry-eyed gaze on his handsome face as he left.

Walking past the small groups scattered throughout the hall, Luke walked over to a small group of women and coughed. “Your Highness, long time no see.”

The women who were chatting in low voices looked over, and their eyes lit up.

Bale, who was in his prime, was quite good-looking.

He was also 1.88 meters and had a firm chest. Few women would dislike such a man.

The women in this circle clearly weren’t among them.

A less reserved lady chuckled and asked searchingly, “Your Highness? Looks like it’s an old friend.”

The woman in the white dress turned around with a faint smile. “And you are?”

Luke curled his lip and smiled. “Bruce Bale, currently involved in the R&D of A.I. robot technology.”

The woman in the white dress snorted inwardly, but wore an enlightened expression. “So, it’s you…”

What a clever approach.

He pretended that they weren’t that ‘familiar,’ but that they were indeed on friendly terms. He also conveniently ignored the lady’s probing words.

Luke was a very straightforward person, but Bruce Bale was a handsome, cold and unsophisticated scientific genius.

So, he simply smiled politely at the onlookers. “Sorry, ladies, I need to borrow Her Highness for a few minutes…”

The women were reluctant, but they subconsciously nodded. “It’s fine. Do whatever you want.”

“Haha, we’re the ones disturbing the both of you.”

“As long as she’s willing, you can borrow her for a few more minutes.”

Luke thanked them and held out one arm. “Shall we, Your Highness?”

Diana’s eyes flickered, but she still placed a hand on his arm, and they walked to the other side.

With a smile on her face, Diana Prince said in a low voice, “How should I address you? You didn’t have this surname last time.”

Luke didn’t think much of it. “Right back at you.”

Of course, Diana’s surname wasn’t Prince. She was just using the ‘prince’ from her identity as a princess.

By the same logic, Luke’s Bale was actually the last name of a certain Batman actor.

Diana snorted inwardly and changed the subject. “Someone called the Dark Knight has been very active in Gotham recently. Have you heard of him?”

Luke nodded. “People always need something to do. He probably doesn’t like the law and order situation in Gotham. Perhaps GCPD will thank such a good citizen.”

The corners of Diana’s mouth twitched.

Other people might not know who the Dark Knight was, but how could she not?

She had one of the Bat darts left behind by this Knight as a gift for her.

Unfortunately, she couldn’t say it out loud here. “Then why are you here tonight?”

Luke hummed and said, “Getting to know some friends beforehand will be good for future development.”

He then let go of her arm and walked over to two men who were talking to each other. “Mr. Wayne, I’ve heard a lot about you. We finally meet.”
