章節 11: AI

{AI SPEAKING}

**********************************************************

[2 year later.]

The construction crew completed the cave in a 6 months. Once they were done, I used the Neuralyzer on them to change their memories to repair and reconstruct Wayne Manor instead of terraforming a cave beneath Wayne Manor.

Next, I had staff from Wayne Technologies help me move the Bat-Computer into the cave, while Wayne Biotech provided materials for my lab. After they completed their work, I also used the Neuralyzer on them to erase their memories of the cave.

I also built a miniaturized arc reactor. Instead of using it for the suit I plan to create, I decided to make it the main power source for the Batcave, at least for now.

Sitting in front of the giant screen surrounded by smaller screens, I pressed the bat symbol on my custom keyboard,something I inspired from Iron Man, to start my AI.

I wrote nearly fifty million lines of code for my AI, with only 30% being the core code that forms the main structure. The other 70% is there to stop it from going rogue like Ultron, Skynet, Failsafe, or the Alfred Protocol.

Alfred Protocol was an AI Batman from the dark multiverse, built with the help of Cyborg after Alfred's death. Right after the AI was activated, it went rogue and killed all of Batman's villains before taking over Batman's mind and turning him into a cyborg named Murder Machine. That's why I spent extra months writing code to prevent something like this from ever happening.

{HELLO MASTER BRUCE}

A mechanical noise came from the Bat-computer.

"IT'S ALIVE!" I shouted as I raised my hands.

"Good job, darling," Teleute said softly, wrapping her arms around me and kissing the top of my head. "I'm so proud of you."

And I just melted in her arms.

"You should finish your work, dear," Teleute said gently as he pushed me down into the chair.

'This AI is coming between me and my wife... Should I just delete it?' pondered as I settled back down, then shook my head. "Run a full error scan," I instructed the AI.

{SCANNING}

{SCANNING COMPLETED}

{0 ERRORS FOUND}

"From now on, your name will be Bat-AI."

{AFFIRMATIVE}

"That's a terrible name, my dear," Teleute remarked, leaning on me while her chin rested on my head.

"I know, that's what it gets after the shit it just pulled," I said, taking her hand and kissing her palm.

"What about Eden? How does that sound?" Teleute suggested.

"'Tsk, lucky bastard, okay, change your name to Eden."

{Thank you, Lady Teleute.}

"Haha, you're welcome," Teleute laughed, while I seriously thought about deleting the AI since it was taking my wife's attention.

"Start the registration for authorized users; set the levels from 0 to 5, with 5 being the highest and 0 the lowest," I commanded the AI.

{AUTHORIZATION LEVELS HAVE BEEN CREATED}

"Scan my data, register my retinal scan, voice recognition, and DNA," I continued to set up my access levels.

{SCAN IS COMPLETED}

"Create a special access level as the sole administrator, authorization level alpha and omega. Register me as the only one with access if ever to be rewritten or removed, start self-destruction, and erase all data."

{AUTHORIZATION LEVEL CREATED}

{REGISTRATION IS COMPLETED.}

"I don't want to register your data on a computer, my love. You can just use the computer whenever you want with your powers if you need it, not that you will ever need to use your powers for a computer, but you know," I said to Teleute.

"It's alright beloved," Teleute smiled as she pressed the ankh symbol on the keyboard. The Bat-computer then set up access levels alpha and omega for her as well.

"Let's create backup access with encrypted passwords. First password-"

I went ahead and added 69 passwords.

{PASSWORDS HAVE BEEN CREATED}

"Alfred is not here, but I can always add him later. But now that we're done with access, let's get you some data before I toss you into the internet." I opened Hacker Music and put on sunglasses. "It's showtime."

"Peachy keen," Teleute said with a grin as she donned her own sunglasses.

'Argh, she is too precious,'I thought, clutching my chest while looking at Teleute.

I shook my head and slapped my face. 'You have things to do, Bruce. It's not time for simping.' and started typing on the keyboard.

'Hmm, it looks like Argus has not yet been created,' I thought as I failed to find anything about Argus.

'Let's go with the classic for now,' I thought,hacking into Checkmate, a group that collaborates with governments worldwide, and downloaded all their data.

And as a thanks for their data, I sent them a picture of a pregnant Sonic being embraced by Mario from behind.

Then, I hacked into NASA and changed every computer wallpaper to a flat earth image.

I continued hacking into various governments to download their data before sending Eden into the chaotic realm of the internet, hoping it wouldn't come back as a Discord admin.

Now that I finished with AI, it's time to dive into my nanotechnology research.

[1 year later.]

After AI completed its data, I ordered it to collect information about the board of directors of Wayne Enterprises and blackmail them into behaving like the obedient dogs they are and looking after my company until I take it back.

Next, using the design of the miniaturized Arc Reactor and some research with my bat-phone and using my mind, I figured out how to use a Particle Accelerator to build an arc reactor, the one with a new element, not the one that uses palladium.

Building the arc reactor took me a few months. It took that long because I did not have the atomic structure developed with the Tesseract's help. I had to construct the atomic structure on my own, which would have been impossible if I had Batman's IQ instead of Batman One Million's 1045 IQ.

During this time, I also spent every weekend on dates with Teleute. I visited Selina at least once a week and invited Zatanna to stay over once a month.

I also found out that Wayne Monar was being watched, likely by the Court of Owls.But after confirming they weren't a threat, I chose to ignore them for now to avoid drawing too much attention to myself.

[3RD POV]

"What is on your mind, Master Bruce?" Alfred asked as he noticed Bruce fixated on the round metal device with a blue glowing triangle—the new arc reactor—without blinking.

"This shouldn't exist, Alfred," Bruce replied, still staring at the arc reactor.

"Master Bruce, you have already created two of them."Alfred pointed out.

"Yes, I did,Alfred, but this thing defies the Law of Conservation of Energy. Energy can't be created or destroyed, only transferred. But the arc reactor I created is capable of creating energy independently, especially this one that just creates unlimited sustainable clean energy," Bruce explained, holding the arc reactor. "And it doesn't belong here."

"I don't quite understand, Master Bruce. What do you mean by 'it doesn't belong here'? You created this arc reactor. I even helped you with the construction processes. I was there when you created this new arc reactor," Alfred said, puzzled by Bruce's statement,since Bruce was saying that something he did create doesn't exist or belong here.

"I made this element from something that doesn't exist in our universe, Alfred. The most important, the key part in creating this, and I managed to create it even without it," Bruce said, setting the arc reactor down.

Still confused, Alfred chose to accept Bruce's words.

"What should I do with the old one,sir?" Alfred asked, holding the palladium-powered arc reactor.

"Throw it away, Alfred. It's an old technology," Bruce said as he walked toward the lab.

***

After I finished the arc reactor, I shifted my focus to the SSS. After a month, I completed the first batch. After that, I spent couple weeks on the serum to perfect it and increase its effects.

{Sir, it's time for bed.}

While I was admiring one of the SSS tubes, I heard Eden's reminder. I carefully placed the tube in a secure case and left the Batcave.

I pay close attention to my sleeping schedule since I'm still a growing boy. It's necessary for me to sleep at least 8–10 hours each night, and I strictly follow it because I still have some time before most of the villains in Gotham emerge after Batman begins his crusade, and metahumans are so few in number that they are called freaks, not metahumans.

It's time for me to return to the sweet embrace of death, no pun intended. I headed to my room to cuddle with my beloved wife, Teleute, as I drifted off to sleep.

A/N: I know that it would take less than 3 years to create those things with 1045 IQ, but I'm doing this kind of time skip to just pass the childhood phase faster.
