Chapter 109 Outsider vs. Outsider
"So tired." Harley Quinn stood in the pit and looked up.
"Take a break if you're tired, we have plenty of time." Connors meant to reassure Harley that there was no need to rush into the plan.
But Ivy, the "Poison Ivy," had a sudden flash of inspiration:
"Is there plenty of time?"
She lifted her feet, firmly rooted to the earth, and slowly walked towards Connors in her high heels. With a wave of her hand, a house made of vines quickly took shape.
They even locked Harley out of the pit.
"Oh no, the keyword has been triggered."
Connors knew what Poison Ivy was up to the moment he saw her posture.
Not only did he know, but Harley Quinn, who was locked outside in the suddenly formed vine cabin, also knew perfectly well.
"Ivy's trying to hog the food again! Last time she sent everyone else away and enjoyed it all by herself, is she doing it again this time?"
Harley Quinn stood in the pit and muttered to herself angrily.
She was referring to the initial formation of the Birds of Prey (Birds of Prey) on the edge of Gotham Forest during the "White Martian Invasion" incident.
If Harley Quinn hadn't smelled a faint scent on Ivy's lips afterward, she would have naively believed that the two of them had really gone to improve their combat abilities.
"Ivy, shouldn't sisters share good things?"
As Harley Quinn spoke, she jumped out of the pit, dropped the shovel, and walked to the vine hut.
She pressed her fingers together, her palms like sharp knives piercing the vines, then pulled them apart forcefully, tearing a gap in the vines that ordinary people couldn't possibly break, and leaped inside.
Harley Quinn was quick; she had already joined the fray while Ivy had only just opened the food packaging and hadn't even had a chance to take her first bite.
"If one source of food is cut off and the other source of entertainment is cut off, will this world eventually turn into a world where people eat grass if it isn't swallowed up by the anti-monitors?"
Connors looked at the vine-covered cottage in the distance and muttered to himself.
Having just fed Harley and Ivy, he didn't linger and headed straight for downtown Gotham.
He was going to carry out his second plan upon arriving on Earth 3:
Visit "Night Owl" Thomas Wayne Jr., who is Bruce Wayne's brother.
Getting the Super Girl pregnant was the first plan, and now it has been successfully completed with the help of the "precision control" ability.
The second plan was even simpler and easier than the first; Connors only needed to meet with "Night Owl" to begin.
Earth-3's "Night Owl" also has a butler, Alfred, but compared to the world where Connors lives, the old butler in this world is ruthless.
He conspired with "Night Owl" Thomas Wayne Jr. to murder the Wayne couple, and assisted Thomas Wayne Jr. in ruling Gotham with brute force. He even helped kill the world's vigilante, the Joker.
In the main universe, this Alfred also single-handedly caused a three-way conflict within the Justice League and personally initiated the "Eternal Evil" event.
At this moment, the guy was standing in front of Connors, pale-faced, emaciated, and with a receding hairline.
A slight smile played on his face:
"Sir Outsider, would you like a drink?"
"Just something to drink, please," Connors said with a smile.
This Gotham also has Wayne Manor, which, under the "magnification" and "spider-sense," cannot be hidden from Connors.
After breaking into Wayne Manor, Thomas Wayne Jr., nicknamed "Night Owl," didn't see the manor's owner, but instead met the old butler, Alfred.
This guy hasn't had a chance to go to the main universe and become an "outsider" yet.
"Okay, please have a seat for a moment. The master is washing off the bloodstains." Alfred smiled and handed over a glass of beer.
He didn't know Connors, but Alfred knew almost immediately about Connors' sudden appearance in the sky and his defeat of Superpower and Zamza.
Therefore, even though he didn't know Connors' purpose in coming here, Alfred still fulfilled his duty as a butler and entertained the guest on behalf of his master.
In Earth-3, Alfred refers to "Night Owl" as "Master," not "Lord."
Connors took the beer, downed it in one gulp, and after putting down the glass, said:
"I'm not in a hurry. My purpose in finding him was to inquire about you, but since you're standing right in front of me, there's no need for me to see him or not."
Alfred smiled at Connors, but didn't reply. Instead, he raised his left hand to look at the watch on his wrist.
",two.--."
He's counting down.
"?" Connors paused for a moment, then quickly understood what the butler was doing.
He poisoned his beer.
I should be collapsed from poisoning right now, but I don't know what kind of poison I've been poisoned with.
Connors asked curiously:
"What poison did you give me? What will the consequences be?"
Alfred, with one hand behind his back and the other raised in front of him to check his watch, explained:
"A highly toxic fruit juice would taste delicious mixed with strong liquor, but unfortunately you're drinking beer."
"Whatever your purpose in coming here, I must first subdue you. So, I'm sorry, but if you can't withstand this deadly poison, it would be better for you to remain asleep forever."
Connors touched his abdomen and urged:
What symptoms will a person experience after being poisoned?
"He'll fall to the ground." Alfred's pale face wore a cold smile. Upon hearing this, Connors fell asleep immediately.
"...They will foam at the mouth, have convulsions, and experience incontinence."
Alfred's smile froze, and he hesitated before adding the rest of the message.
Connors scrambled to his feet and swiftly covered Alfred's mouth with the beer glass he had just set down:
"Alright, stop talking. I can act out foaming at the mouth, but I have no talent for incontinence."
After saying that, Connors removed the thin protective layer inside his body that had been created using "40% of the Green of All Things".
He thought it was some kind of toxin targeting superhumans, but it turned out to be just a poisonous juice.
If he had known it would be like this, Connors wouldn't have needed the Green of All Things to create a protective layer in his body. After "photosynthesis" and sunbathing for half a day, his physical condition alone would have been enough to ignore this deadly poison.
Alfred always had a pale face with a confident smile. When had he ever had a cup stuck to his mouth?
He instinctively tried to struggle, but Connors was incredibly strong, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break free.
"Let him go."
Just then, a sound came from outside the window, followed by the glass shattering, and "Night Owl" rushed over without saying a word.
Before "Night Owl" Thomas Wayne Jr.'s fist could land on Connors, Connors had already dodged to the side:
"I've let go."
But "Night Owl's" attack did not stop. He threw several darts, and explosions, fire, and smoke enveloped the area. Then he launched a flying kick towards Connors's direction.
"Were you the one calling for Martha from heaven? Who are you?"
But amidst the flames and explosions, Connors remained completely unaffected, instead reaching out to grab "Night Owl's" ankle as it kicked at him:
"Does killing your corrupt parents make you so sensitive? You can't even mention Martha's name? — Oh, I see, you accidentally killed your beloved Teddy, Bruce Wayne, and that's become your shadow, isn't it?"
When Connors called "Martha---" from the sky, his target was Superpower, but Superpower didn't respond to the name. Instead, it was Owl who reacted.
"Don't mention that name!"
"Night Owl" roared furiously and pressed a button.
Flames soared into the sky as the entire Wayne Manor was detonated by "Night Owl" Thomas Wayne Jr.
However, Connors's black trench coat, a common sight in Gotham, remained completely undamaged. In the firelight, his voice reached "Night Owl's" ears, leaving the man who had blown up his own lair without a second thought frozen in place:
"Work with me, and I'll let you see Bruce Wayne, whether he's an adult or a child."
