Side Story: Fantasy Journey 2

There was a poem: You stand on a bridge and look at the scenery, and the people in the scenery look back at you from above.2

Knight was walking on a sandbar at the moment, and there were no bridges or piers, much less higher ground, that didn't stop him from becoming the scenery.

Although most of the female soldiers were still training, they were clearly a little distracted.

A small group approached him from dozens of meters away and looked at him like… he was a giant panda.

He heard their whispers. "Who's this?"

"This person looks different from us."

"Idiot, that is a man."

"What? Oh, a man?"

"Why is this person more beautiful than me? Are all men this beautiful?"

"He looks strong. Is he stronger than us?"

As they whispered to each other, nobody stopped the female warrior, who was leading the way, and Knight. They simply watched from a distance as Luke arrived at a wooden house halfway up the mountain.

The clone glanced at a huge stone palace 100 meters away. That was clearly one of the main buildings.

As for the wooden house in front of him… Fine, why did it look like a North American house?

A typical North American house was a single-story detached house with a loft and a porch.

There were a lot of houses like these in the Texan countryside, including Luke's grandpa Drax's house.

But on this magical island, this architectural style stood out.

The female warrior who led the way simply said, "Please wait here for a moment and don't move." She then entered the house.

A moment later, she walked out and gestured at the open door. "Come in. The lady is waiting for you."

Knight thanked her and stepped inside.

The layout inside wasn't a surprise to him. It was still in the typical North American style — spacious, simple, comfortable and practical.

Of course, all these four characteristics required money.

A poor person's house might look similar on the outside, but in fact, might only be simple and practical, and not spacious and comfortable.

The owner of this house definitely wasn't short of money, but the rooms weren't lavish. At most, he would say that they were "exquisite."

Passing the entryway and entering the spacious living room, Knight saw his objective — Tiana.

Wearing a loose cotton white shirt and denim shorts, she was completely different from the other female soldiers on the island. Instead, she looked more like someone from Knight's world.

Almost the moment he looked at her, she raised her eyes from the tablet in her hand and met his gaze. "Hello, Mr. Wayne."

Knight bowed slightly in respect. "Hello, Miss Tiana."

As he greeted her, he murmured to himself that sure enough, it had been almost 30 years since they met at the casino in Las Vegas, but this probable "goddess" still looked the same.

Tiana didn't get up. She simply stretched out her hand. "Have a seat, Mr. Wayne. You've contributed a lot to the peace of this universe, so I'll do my best to answer your questions."

Knight nodded. "Thank you very much, Miss Tiana. I want to know…"

Half an hour later, the clone appeared on the ocean in the center of the Pacific Ocean again.

After reactivating his nanosuit fully, he thanked the female warrior who had led him out on a canoe once more, before he jumped into the ocean and left.

…

One night a month later, Luke and his Level 3 clone appeared hundreds of kilometers above the ocean surface.

On this floating platform was a device that occupied more than ten square meters.

The most eye-catching thing in the device was naturally the Space Stone. As the device was activated, the Stone began to glow more and more brightly.

Dozens of seconds later, a bright blue light beam was projected on the flight platform, and a portal wide enough for a single person to pass through opened up.

The A.I. program showed a 91.3% match with the model simulation.

Once it had drawn a conclusion, the Level 3 clone, who had been waiting on the side, charged into the dark sky on the other side of the portal.

Looking at the night view of a city in the rain, Luke then turned off the device and quickly left the ocean.

The reason he had chosen to activate the Space Stone above the ocean was naturally to find the other "world" that Tiana had mentioned.

According to her, it was also a complete world, and more dangerous than this one.

Tiana didn't mention anything else, but this young and beautiful "old lady" clearly hadn't learned to control her microexpressions, which gave Luke enough information.

After getting what he needed, the clone didn't stay any longer.

The only reason Tiana had met him was because Knight was famous.

As someone on the side of justice, meeting him more or less could be considered forming a connection, so that she wouldn't have to look for the tycoon as a middleman in the future.

Letting him enter this mysterious island once was the limit, and he hadn't even been able to stay for the day.

Luke had always been tactful. Naturally, he wouldn't let the clone become an uninvited guest.

After he returned, he had Ultima, the super A.I. in Space 2, run simulations for a month, before he finally confirmed this 'transmigration' plan. He then used the power of the Space Stone to link to a dangerous world — the 'time rift' which Tiana had 'suppressed' led to that world.

At that moment, Luke, who had successfully arrived in this 'new world,' instantly made his way to an uninhabited apartment in a building a few kilometers away.

Throwing out drones, he pulled up a chair over to a window and paid attention to any activity in the direction he had come from as well as the intelligence gathered by the drones.

Fortunately, this was still Earth. Although it was 2016, it already had wifi.

Using the drones, Luke quickly hacked someone else's Internet connection. The Big Dipper Armor's A.I. program, Polaris, quickly scanned and screened the data for important information, which was displayed on the virtual screen.

A few minutes later, Luke's expression changed as he mumbled, "Gotham City? Batman? Superman?"

Then, he couldn't help but raise his head to look at the gloomy night sky and the endless drizzle. "No wonder. This odd weather is actually the standard backdrop for Gotham, right?"

After voicing his thoughts, he slowly calmed down.

No matter what this place was, he had to be prepared.

He didn't think that the Batman here would acknowledge him as a biological brother just because they were dressed similarly.

On the contrary, if Luke went out in Knight's outfit, he would most likely be treated as a "malicious impersonator" by a certain lunatic, and would probably be beaten to death without being given the chance to say anything.
