I'm doing bidirectional science popularization in American comics

With such a packed schedule, Penguin Man hasn't been out on the scene for a long time!

Oswald was even a little worried that after he finished learning from Bruce Wayne, Gotham City would have long forgotten the legend of Penguin!

"Damn it, this won't do!" Oswald gritted his teeth and said, "We need to increase the amount of training at night and try to get Penguin back to play as soon as possible!"

That evening, Bruce clearly sensed that Oswald was different from before.

This guy actually asked to increase his training volume, that's really strange!

While Dick was training Oswald's rope skills, Bruce said to Alfred, who was standing nearby:

"Did this guy eat something weird today? He's acting like he's on steroids."

Alfred rolled his eyes and said, "I've been personally preparing Mayor Corbert's meals all this time, so there's absolutely no way he could have gotten sick. He might just suddenly want to work harder, you know, some kids mature later."

Only Dick, wearing the Robin suit, watched Oswald fall again and again, and spoke his mind.

"Is it possible that the mayor simply wants to resume his Penguin Man persona as soon as possible?"

Oswald got up from the ground, patted his dusty backside, and gave Robin a thumbs up.

"As expected, besides Mr. Depp, you are the one who understands me the most, Robin!"

"Well, we're in this together, Cobert... no, Penguin Man Uncle!"

Robin was very friendly and turned around to give Oswald a wink.

Oswald, seeing this: ?(`?')?

At the Depp Botanical Research Institute, Ivy, dressed in a white lab coat, was in front of a computer on the experimental table, carefully comparing the latest batch of test data from cultivated plants.

She looked at the data for this row of crops, shook her head, and prepared to begin the next round of experiments.

Because Ivy can control the growth rate of plants, she can make experimental crops that would normally take months or even a year to mature ripen in just a few minutes, and they are indistinguishable from naturally matured crops.

In other words, what other botanists take six months or even a year to cultivate, Ivy can do in just a few minutes.

Even with subsequent testing and comparisons, it only takes a few hours.

This allows Ivy to conduct research and development in the field of botany at an incredible speed, which is why the Depp Botanical Institute was able to release two high-quality, high-yield crop varieties in just one week.

As for Ivy's current project, it is to cultivate a fruit crop that is completely different from all existing plant species.

This is many times more difficult than obtaining high-yield, high-quality subspecies of existing crops through hybridization and improvement.

If successful, the Depp Institute of Botany and Ivy will immediately become the brightest star in the global field of botany, a star that will never be seen before or since!

Of course, this is equivalent to creating a new species from scratch, and the difficulty is self-evident, so Ivy is not in a hurry.

She also recorded the products of the failed experiments and sealed the seeds.

Although these things were very different from the sweet fruit I had imagined, they were not entirely useless.

For example, the seeds in storage box A3 will grow into a green plant with a long, cylindrical mouthpart after they mature.

Its long, cylindrical mouthparts can spew out a red fruit, much like firing a cannonball.

After being rapidly ejected by their mouthparts, these fruits ignite a layer of flammable material around them during their extremely fast flight due to friction with the air.

Ultimately, after these flaming red fruits struck their target, the outer shell shattered, and the special substance inside, upon contact with the flames on the outer skin, would explode instantly.

Furthermore, the explosive power is not small, almost comparable to an anti-tank grenade, with an blast radius of about twenty meters.

Ivy's research, which lasted all night long, made Wayne feel a little sorry for her.

Of course, she was mostly happy for her boss, because the harder Ivy worked, the better the boss's company would do.

So this crocodile boy with a wild appearance also taught himself cooking skills online and would make a delicious vegan bento for Ivy every night.

Their relationship continued to deepen, and they developed shared beliefs and goals.

That is to contribute all my strength to the growth of the Depp Group!

At the Depp Group's Cryogenics and Life Sciences Research Institute, after Victor, the cryogenically frozen man, put his wife Nora to sleep, got out of bed, dressed, and returned to the research base downstairs.

During this period, he has never relaxed his research on cryopreservation technology and life sciences.

Every day after putting Nora to sleep, he would secretly get up and continue his research.

In addition to cryopreservation technology, he also requested a small test tube of concentrated life essence from Depp and began analyzing and researching this magical liquid day and night.

He believed that if he could mass-produce this liquid, then even if Nora's illness was not cured, she could temporarily use the concentrated essence of life to prolong her life.

After all, this thing has absolutely no side effects!

Of course, Mr. Freeze still hasn't given up on treating Nora's condition.

After a period of research, he discovered that his wife's illness was caused by a special virus.

Furthermore, this special virus can only survive and reproduce in his wife's body.

He injected this virus into laboratory mice, rabbits, and pigs, and without exception, the virus did not survive in these animals for more than an hour before being completely eliminated by their own immune systems.

Ultimately, Mr. Freeze even injected the virus into his own body.

He had assumed that these viruses could only reproduce and survive in the human body.

But to his surprise, these viruses only remained in his body for two hours before being defeated by his own immune system.

This made him wonder if the virus originated from his wife's genes, and whether he could eliminate the virus in his wife's body through external intervention.

Of course, all of this requires his own continued in-depth research and analysis, and it is not something that can be accomplished overnight.

But Mr. Freeze felt that although these studies could not be completed overnight, he had to work against the clock!

I absolutely cannot be outdone by that green-clad woman next door; I must work even harder than her!

After learning about the working conditions of his unpaid employees, Depp repeatedly advised them not to work too hard and to separate work from life.

We work to live a better life, so we shouldn't let work deprive us of any time to enjoy life.

Faced with Depp's advice, Wellen immediately retorted, "Serving my boss is my life, so my work and life overlap. The more I enjoy life, the harder I naturally work!"

Oswald said, "For the honor of Mr. Depp and the Cobbard family, and for the safety of Gotham, I am not afraid of any hardship or fatigue, so Mr. Depp, you don't need to persuade me anymore!"

Ivy said, "Like Wayne, I just want to contribute my part to Mr. Depp and the Depp Group. Besides, plants are my favorite thing, and I have completely combined my hobby with my work. I feel particularly happy and fulfilled every day when I work!"

Mr. Freeze said, "Everything I do is to keep Nora away from the torment of her illness. I will not relax for a moment until this goal is achieved. Life without Nora is meaningless. Only after Nora is free from the torment of her illness and the threat to her life can I be qualified to enjoy life with Nora."

Faced with the determined gazes of these people and their "fight to the death" mentality, Depp said he wouldn't try to persuade them anymore.

You are amazing, you work hard, you are all champions!

I'm going to enjoy life now, I'm going home to cuddle with Selena!

Back at the antique shop, Depp discovered that besides himself being a laid-back guy, there was an even more laid-back guy in his family.

Grandi's life is now very regular and laid-back. His daily routine consists of looking after the shop, cleaning, and working hard to make a living.

After three hours of passion and tenderness, Depp embraced Selena, who was dressed in a white maid outfit, and couldn't help but sigh at how happy he was now.

I'd almost forgotten I was in Gotham the hell!

At the same time, the system's long-lost voice reappeared.

However, this time it's not about giving Depp any reward or issuing any tasks, but rather reminding him that his five-day "random comic book world travel time" is about to expire if he doesn't use it soon.

Depp: ('?ω?)?

"How the hell does this thing have an expiration date? System, are you out of your mind?!"

Chapter 131 This place is usually safe, unless...

Whether to use this five-day random comic book world travel time or not is the question.

If I were to use it, and happen to be transported to an extremely dangerous world, I would be completely useless if I didn't make it through those five days.

But if you don't use it, it's really frustrating to watch the rewards you've earned expire and disappear!

After all, Depp used to be the kind of person who wouldn't even waste a supermarket weekend discount coupon, let alone a completely free reward.

Depp thought about it. Logically speaking, he had already established himself in DC's Gotham City and had been to Marvel's New York City several times.

There probably isn't a more dangerous comic book world than these two places, right?

If the randomly generated comic book world is Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, or a cat and mouse game, I might actually be going on vacation.

In a world like The Walking Dead, those weak zombies can't even beat ordinary humans, let alone themselves.

In five days, Depp estimated that with his current strength, he could almost completely wipe out all the forces in Governor's Town, the Cannibals, the Wolf Clan, Hilltop, the Kingdom of God, and so on.

Even in worlds with exceptionally powerful combat capabilities, such as Spawn, as long as one doesn't encounter a world-ending event or a cosmic being capable of altering cause and effect, then with one's current physical strength, self-preservation shouldn't be a problem.

Besides, what if I'm lucky enough to be randomly transported to the world of Witchblade...?

Hehe...hehehe...

After some thought, Depp decided to use the five-day random trip to the American comic book world.

But not now, but tomorrow after I'm fully prepared.

The next morning, Depp put the improved violin case armor into his system space and checked his equipment and supplies.

Vibranium nano ring, concentrated life essence, knight's medal, and several sets of clothes and food.

In addition, Depp brought a lot of medical supplies, including more than a dozen respirators and a large number of compressed artificial air canisters in the system space.

This thing could be very useful if you were transported to outer space or to a plane or planet where there is no breathable air for humans.

After everything was prepared, Depp spent another whole day with Selena before leaving.

At night, Depp lay in bed, looking at Selena, who had a blissful expression on her face.

After much hesitation, Depp left the room and went to the bathroom. He ultimately decided to use the five-day random comic book world travel time.

Just like when he went to the Marvel universe before, after using the random world travel time, Depp will still be sent back to the point in time when he left DC.

But unlike his previous visits to the Marvel universe, this time Depp was confronted with a constantly shifting cloud of light.

Furthermore, Depp was not given the opportunity to choose the landing location, indicating that the landing location was completely random.

Above the light mist, colors such as black, red, green, yellow, blue, and purple constantly change.

Aside from the purple halo which Depp knew represented the Marvel universe, he had absolutely no idea which American comic book universe was behind the other colors of halo.

The colors of these light mists change so rapidly that Depp has no choice in which to select them.
