Chapter 122 omitted the word "great".
According to Lady Shangdu, he will turn the tide, correct the timeline, and save the world.
Connors used his "human limits" of brainpower to understand Madam Shangdu's words. He guessed that this mature woman was looking too far into the future and instinctively rationalized her actions.
Looking at Lady Shangdu's slightly open mouth, her vermilion lips, moistened by her tongue, looked soft and sweet.
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and kiss her! Wait a minute, her mouth is open so wide, it doesn't look like it's meant for kissing—"
Connors wasn't in a hurry, but Rhonda Panida, who was sitting on the edge of his ear, was anxious and tugged at Connors' hair to urge him on.
Connors' original intention was to kidnap Lady Shangdu and take her to the Temple of Hephaestus, an ancient Greek ruin, just like in the comic book.
But seeing Lady Shangdu's open mouth, Connors didn't do what "Atom Girl" expected. Instead, he pulled something out of his pocket:
A small ball, slightly smaller than a billiard ball, with strings attached to both ends.
"Sound!"
Caught off guard, Lady Shangdu's mouth was gagged with a small ball, and Connors quickly tied a rope behind her head:
"You know too much, madam. We can talk about comforting people later. I don't have time to invite you to dinner right now."
Lady Shangdu was speechless and could only weakly let out a "meow".
"Why do you carry this thing with you?" Atomic Girl asked curiously.
Connors flicked Thumbelina, who had jumped from his ear to his shoulder, with his finger and replied irritably:
"Didn't I say before that even if you're of no use to me, I won't kill you—but that gag was prepared for you?"
Upon hearing this, Rhonda Panida, who played Atomic Girl, shrank her neck and moved from Connors' shoulder to his collar, squeezing her entire body inside with only her head sticking out.
"Madam, although you have seen the future, you wouldn't want any mishaps to occur, would you?"
After silencing "Atomic Girl," Connors turned his gaze back to Lady Utsu, his eyes lingering for a second on the drool dripping from the small ball:
"Please cooperate with me and do not reveal any information about me."
Lady Shangdu nodded obediently.
If someone unaware of the situation came to take a look, they might think that Lady Shangdu and Connors were playing some kind of novel game.
Y is now willingly bound here.
He reached out and wiped the drool that was dripping from the ball for Lady Shangdu. Then, a black cloak appeared silently behind Connors and carried her and her chair away.
The destination remains the ancient Greek ruins, specifically the temple of Hephaestus, the god of fire.
The black smoke traveled extremely fast, arriving within minutes.
After placing Lady Shangdu on the ground, Connors used "Green of All Things" to create a small space underground and then threw the still drooling Lady Shangdu into it.
"Madam, please stay here and do not move."
After saying that, Connors ignored Lady Shangdu.
He's a very busy man right now and needs to get back to the medical center of the Tianyan Society as soon as possible.
Why didn't they stop you?
"Atomic Girl" lay in Connors' collar, watching with a puzzled expression as Connors flew all the way from outside to the operating table in the medical center without anyone stopping him. She asked curiously.
"I secretly supported the establishment of the 'Sky Eye Society,' otherwise, do you think the Justice League of America would have been formed?"
And how did Martian Manhunter's arrival go so smoothly?
Connors explained to Atom in a low voice.
He was already standing in front of Dr. Guang's operating table—the examination table.
"So, what's the result?" Connors asked Cyborg, then greeted Zatanna from Earth 0 who was standing next to him.
"Sorry, Connors, we cannot prove that Dr. Light's energy accidentally triggered Superman's heat vision."
Zatanna said with some regret.
Zatanna from Earth 0 didn't wear a tuxedo; instead, she wore black over-the-knee boots and a fitted vest, though she didn't forget her signature fishnet stockings.
Her looks are comparable to Zatanna, the curious girl Connors knows well, and their figures are also quite similar.
But now, the people around the household registration office, including Connors, are not paying attention to her.
"Mars Manhunter" stared intently at Dr. Light's body with his red eyes, as if trying to bring the other to life with his gaze:
"Perhaps it cannot be proven, Zatanna. But it remains one of our most credible speculations."
As the main force in autopsies, "Cyborg" now had all ten fingers on both hands transformed into metal tentacles.
It reached inside Dr. Guang's body.
Instead of using traditional methods of home inspection, he used sensors on his fingertips to scan the interior of the home.
Upon hearing Martian Manhunter's words, Cyborg replied:
"Aside from Wonder Woman's perspective, this is indeed the most credible theory. She believes that Pandora's box controls Superman."
Batman was also standing there, and he looked at Connors and asked:
"Weren't you and Wonder Woman on your way to find Pandora? Any progress?"
Connors pointed to Dr. Light's body:
"Before you ask me this question, you should deal with him first; he's really making a scene."
Thick white smoke rose from the head of the luminous master, whose body was gradually stiffening, almost completely enveloping the inspection platform.
Everyone present—Steve Rogers from the Justice League of America, Martian Manhunter, Cyborg from the Justice League of America, Zatanna from the Justice League of America, and Batman—cautiously took a step back.
The sudden smoke coming from the building was something even the most knowledgeable superheroes had never seen before.
"Zatanna, what have you done?" Steve questioned Zatanna.
"I didn't do anything!" Zatanna retorted.
Batman was about to turn his questioning gaze to Connors, but Connors' expression was also somewhat surprised.
It turns out there are times when he doesn't know what's going on—Batman lowers his guard against Connors a little.
Thick white smoke spread rapidly across the inspection platform, flowing onto the ground and slowly coalescing into a human shape.
"Don't panic—I'm Phantom Stranger, I'm here to help you."
The man who suddenly appeared from the white smoke stretched out a hand to signal everyone not to panic and then spoke.
He was wearing a black trench coat, a black cloak, and a black top hat; he was tall and his eyes shone with white light.
Batman's gaze lingered between Connors and the Phantom Stranger; he seemed to understand the reason for Connors's surprise.
"We're wearing the same clothes, bro."
"I can't help it," Connors said helplessly.
Aside from not wearing a hat, his trench coat and cape were similar in style to the "Phantom Stranger," except that the black smoke cape behind him was more ethereal, and his eyes did not glow.
