The Death Knell

"Ah sneeze!"

On Paradise Island, Raven, who was being entertained by Donna, sneezed cutely and rubbed her nose.

"Is it cold?" Donna took a 'sheet' and put it on her, because in addition to animal skin clothes, the only Greek-style clothes on Paradise Island were: "Paradise Island is like this, the sea breeze at night is really cool. .”

The raven wants its head: "No."

She usually speaks in this style, similar to a mouthless girl, and the more frequently she casts spells, the more she talks and the darker she becomes.

Donna didn't doubt it. She threw herself on the soft couch aside, lay on her side and ate the grapes on the plate: "I really don't know why Diana asked you and me to stay on Paradise Island. The world obviously needs us more. .”

The raven was silent, just looking at the undulating reflection of the moon on the dark sea, with its little face hidden under the purple hood.

She had a bad premonition, as if a stone was weighing on her heart, and she was a little out of breath.

For ordinary people, it may not be anything, but for magicians, this is enough as a sign.

Bad omen.

"How about... let's go see Garth? He should be discharged from the hospital soon." Donna was used to the raven's silence and did not feel embarrassed. Instead, she proposed to visit the sea that fell to the earth from outer space. Young hero Garth.

Raven still didn't answer, but just glanced at Donna, his eyes full of questioning.

Donna is now the captain of the Titans team. Nightwing has not yet recovered from his insanity, so Donna still has the final say on the team's problems.

Although Paradise Island is very nice, with food, drink, and people waiting on her, after all, Donna is an Amazon princess.

But Raven didn't like it very much, especially when the steel armor, Beast Boy, and the others were busy saving the world on the other side of the sea, while he was lying on the sofa on the luxurious terrace, enjoying the sea breeze and eating fruit.

Donna waved her hand to signal the maids to disperse. She sat up, leaned close to Raven's little ear, and whispered: "For the convenience of care, Garth and Dick are now in a small clinic."

"Gotham." Raven knew about this. It was a very secret place arranged by Batman before he disappeared.

To be precise, it was Batman who used a strategy to induce the "Tarantula" who was always greedy for Nightwing's body to arrange it. It was a place that hated Batman, but wanted to give some face to anti-heroes like Tarantula.

Seeing that Raven was interested, Donna smiled secretly: "Yes, it's Gotham. I heard that Gotham has entered a special order now. Do you want to see it?"

The raven tilted his little head and thought for a moment, then raised his hand to open the portal, replacing words with actions.

On the opposite side of the portal, you can see the projection of the bat lantern in the clouds in the sky.

Quicklime, also known as burnt lime, is mainly composed of calcium oxide. It is usually made by calcining natural rocks whose main components are calcium carbonate, such as calcite, at high temperatures, which can decompose into carbon dioxide and calcium oxide.

Calcium oxide releases a lot of heat when it comes into contact with water. This is how it works as a self-heating snack bag, and why throwing lime into someone's eyes is a great trick.

If lime gets into your eyes, you cannot rinse them with water. Anyone who knows the business knows that you need to use oil.

If he were in Marvel, Lime Su Ming could have as much as he wanted. Unfortunately, when he came here, the last box of instant hot pot he had was given to Xiao Fu Zang and the others not long ago. But that's okay, although it's hard to tell where the calcite is without landing, there's another way to extract calcium oxide, and that's by burning the shells.

Shells are also made of calcium. By calcining a large number of shells, you can also obtain lime. This kind of lime is also a valuable paint for decorating houses in Japan.

In other words, Su Ming only needs to choose the one with the largest ocean area among hundreds of planets.

Shells may not necessarily exist on alien planets, so the larger the ocean area, the more types of marine life there may be, and the higher the probability of discovering shellfish.

Time is tight, and searching for planets one by one would be a waste of time. It would be best to be able to deduce the rules and concepts of this universe while searching for shells and burnt lime.

He chose his target, a planet that looked like it was made entirely of oceans. The water on that planet was blue, and the entire planet looked like it was glowing like a gem. It should be similar to the Earth, right?

Su Ming remained invisible and entered the atmosphere.

These planets used to be Brainiac's collection. He only collected planets inhabited by intelligent life, so even if the planet was a water ball, residents could still get information.

It doesn't matter if the light ring is ineffective and the language is blocked. Just let the strangle eat someone.

Passing through the clouds, the endless sea unfolded before his eyes like a blue scroll, with small waves flowing like fish scales. He circled the sea a few times to look at the scenery before diving into the water.

But in the underwater world, he discovered that everything was not as beautiful as it was on the sea.

The endless ocean is not a marine park, and there are no beautiful tropical fish or colorful corals.

Around him, there were only the ruins of large tracts of buildings.

This place used to be an alien city, a ground city with tall buildings similar to those on Earth, spacious streets, and very cute circular vehicles, probably cars or something like that.

Perhaps the sudden release into the ghost sector caused the planet's climate to change drastically, causing the ice and snow at the poles to melt. It may also be that some kind of technology went out of control, causing the world to be flooded.

All in all, the planet is completely covered in water.

There should be no survivors. If he saw the wreckage of the vehicle in the grass on the road correctly, it still used an internal combustion engine. Relying on internal combustion engine technology means that the indigenous people of this planet do not have mature space transportation.

If you don't drain the earth during the time when the earth sinks, I'm afraid the main world will also fall into the same fate, right? But the fate of humans should be better than these aliens, because the water will turn people into fish-men, at least they will still be alive.

And here... Su Ming swam to the ruins of a high-rise building on the roadside, and easily found a large number of humanoid skeletons on the top floor.

There are no signs of trauma on the bones, and they still maintain the posture of covering their necks. Even though these aliens have four arms, it can be seen that they were all suffocated to death.

"Okay, strangulation, we don't have to look for shells anymore, help me move the bones, and I'll find some materials to build a raft."

Silent neural communication.

"Hey."

Strangler agreed and put away all the bones very carefully. The tentacles turned into small pockets, containing the alien bones and wandering underwater with the host.

It's not that it has any respect for the dead aliens, but that it has read the host's thoughts.

Just now, Su Ming touched the bones and determined through the remains that these creatures were carbon-based creatures, and their bones also contained calcium, which was very similar to human bones, consisting of calcium carbonate and calcium phosphate.

Then things are relatively simple. You can get lime by burning these bones, and it seems quite interesting to think about spreading the ashes on Darkseid's face.
