There was another reason why Luke took the initiative to join the upper circle — it was because of his equipment.
Just as he had speculated, this DC was the same as 2023 Marvel; a large part of his inventory was "left behind."
The difference was that 2023 Marvel had about a third of the total storage space available.
DC seemed to be in a worse situation, and could only use about a tenth of it.
In the perception of his original self in his hometown next door, a tenth of the No. 1 and No. 2 spaces had "disappeared."
This completely eliminated the possibility of him using a spatial transfer to teleport resources and living people across planes.
It was easy to forget about Marvel's Bat Squad running a DC dungeon together.
There were too many crazy villains in DC. General Zod's squad alone was enough to crush Earth's heroes.
Also, 2023 Marvel had DC comics and some movies, which Luke had quickly browsed through in the past few days.
This was also one of the few "things" he had brought back from 2023 — it wasn't like watching DC comics and movies in Marvel would cause a space-time backlash, right?
Who knew which DC this was, but it wasn't unusual at all for a popular villain like Darkside to pop up.
After all, this guy could be said to be DC Thanos, or Thanos to be Marvel's Darkside. There were a lot of similarities between the two.
Thus, after investigating for a few months, Luke decided to let his level-three clone wander around on his own.
It would be a waste at most … Hm, it was only 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 going to make a long-term investment, he naturally couldn't be short on money and power.
With a force that listened to him, not only would it be convenient for him to move around, he could also replenish the resources and raw materials he needed.
This time, he had used Pimm particles to shrink a batch of emergency equipment and brought it with him.
He had also brought a small number of key industrial machines with him.
Relying on these key equipment and an ample supply of raw materials, he had already recovered a small part of his equipment production capacity in the past few months.
Compared with when he had first arrived, he felt a lot safer now.
It had to be noted that Lord Wei was also a "pay-to-win player," and would often drive a flying Batmobile to deal with the Gotham police.
Luke didn't want to be abused like this by Lord Wei, especially when he had the ability to create better equipment.
It felt like a tycoon with a suitcase full of US dollars was slapped in the face by a stack of Japanese yen.
Especially after the battle of Wakanda, where they had relied on numbers to crush the Hegemon Destroyer Fleet, he placed a lot of importance on equipment.
Even if he couldn't crush his opponent, at least he couldn't be crushed by his opponent.
Since Bruce Bell was high-profile, the Dark Knight naturally kept a low profile. This made Master Wei, who wanted to have a "talk" with him, very depressed.
Once or twice, he chased after the knight who was doing something, but when he arrived, he could not find the knight no matter what.
Luke, who was busy building his invisible force, wouldn't meet Lord Wei at this moment, because he didn't want the guy to flaunt his wealth.
Regarding this point, the old Young Master Tony and Old Master Wei spoke the same language, while a certain Lu, who had always kept a low profile and had a profound character, begged to differ.
In this delicate balance, it had already been half a year since Luke arrived in Gotham.
That day, Bruce Bell attended a Lex Group party.
Luke was a little interested in Lex Group, because it was involved in a lot of high-tech industries, and had once been the "shell company" that he had chosen.
However, since Lex Luther, the actual controller of the group, lived in seclusion, Luke, who had a lot of choices, couldn't find Lex after a few days of investigation, so he chose another option.
As for attending tonight's banquet with the identity of Bruce Bell, it was because something interesting had happened.
Taking a sip of champagne, Luke said indifferently to a lady in front of him, "Sorry, I just met a friend," before he walked away.
The rich lady nodded in a daze. Her gaze followed his handsome face, and her eyes felt like they were full of hearts.
Walking past the small circles in the hall, Luke walked to a circle of women and coughed. "Your Highness, it's been a long time."
The women who were chatting in low voices all looked at him, and their eyes lit up.
At his peak, Bell had been a good fighter, and had the look of an iceberg handsome man.
Plus, he was 1.88 meters tall, and his chest muscles were big enough to support his suit. There weren't many women who would hate him at first glance.
The women in this circle clearly weren't one of them.
One of the less reserved ladies already probed with a smile, "Your Highness? It seems that he's an old friend of yours. "
The woman in the white dress who was probed turned around with a vague smile. "You are?"
Luke's lips curled into a smile on his cold and handsome face. "Bruce Bell. I'm currently working on the development of robot intelligence."
The woman in the white dress chuckled inwardly. "So, it's you …"
It was a very clever attitude.
It showed that the two of them weren't that "familiar" with each other, but they were indeed friends. He also ignored the woman's probing in passing, which was killing three birds with one stone.
Luke was a very straightforward person, and Bruce Bell was a handsome, cold, and unsophisticated scientific genius in the upper echelons of society.
So, he simply smiled at the women and said, "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 who are bothering you."
"As long as she's willing, we can borrow her for a few more minutes."
Luke thanked her and bent his arm. "May I, Your Highness?"
Diana's eyes flashed, but she still took his hand, 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? That wasn't your last name last time. "
Luke didn't think much of it. "Same here."
Of course, Diana's last name wasn't Prince. She was just using the word "prince" to hint at her identity as a princess.
Similarly, Luke's Bell was actually the last name of a certain Batman actor.
Diana chuckled inwardly and changed the topic. "A Dark Knight has been very active in Gotham recently. Have you heard of him?"
Luke nodded. "People have to find something to do. He probably doesn't like Gotham's security. The GCPD might be grateful to such a good citizen. "
Diana's lips twitched slightly.
Other people might not know who the Dark Knight was, but how could she not?
She had one of the bat darts that the knight had left behind, and he had even given it to her as a present.
Unfortunately, she couldn't say it out loud here. "Why are you here tonight?"
Luke hummed in response. "It's good for my future if I make some friends in advance."
Saying that, he let go of her arm and turned to the two men who were talking. "Mr. Wayne, I've heard a lot about you. I finally get to meet you today."
