Chapter 81 An Eye for an Eye
The repeated tsunamis, and "Superman" Clark's mention of "Aquaman" Arthur and his brother.
In addition to this attack on Aquaman, there is also the disappearance of uranium from the nuclear submarine.
Although Connors didn't have a deep memory of "Aquaman" in the comics, he was very clear about the feud between Arthur and the Orm brothers.
So on the shore of Gotham, he didn't hide anything and directly revealed the names of the people behind Aquaman: "Superman" Clark trusted Connors quite a bit, and "Green Lantern" Hal was also willing to believe Connors because of the Justice Society ring.
However, "Aquaman" Arthur had no contact with Connors. Regarding the act of "framing" his brother as the mastermind, he only gave Connors a deep look:
"Whoever it is, I want to prove it myself. I've memorized what that mercenary looks like; I'll go find him."
"Go ahead, and oh right, take this with you."
Connors said nonchalantly that he was not surprised that "Aquaman" Arthur wanted to verify it himself.
As he spoke, he controlled the plant's growth and handed over a small scarecrow.
This is another use of "Kusama Man" besides being a stand-in, allowing Connors to see the scene where "Kusama Man" is without needing to observe it with the naked eye.
In layman's terms, it's like a "ward" in a game, providing Connors with vision.
Aquaman took Kusama and stuffed it into his pocket.
The Supermen and the others felt something was off when Connors handed over the scarecrow and then turned and left.
Although the group hadn't known each other for long, Connors seemed to be the type of person who always went wherever there was excitement.
Why is this time so unusual?
"The Flash" Barry was even a little uneasy, and quickly ran to Connors' side:
"Hey outsider, bro, you didn't break up with your boyfriend, did you? Why don't you come check on him with me?"
"What do I have to be heartbroken about?" Connors looked at the bachelor Barry.
Zatanna is probably taking a shower in her nineteenth-floor apartment right now, along with Harley Quinn and "Poison Ivy," whom we haven't seen in a long time.
Ivy is in Gotham Forest.
The big star of "The Andrew Hotel," Cindy from New York, is Selena, who appears when you ring her cat bell.
The word "heartbreak" doesn't seem to have anything to do with Connors at all.
The reason he didn't go wasn't because he didn't like gossip; he just needed to rest and, incidentally, test out the reward he had just received.
[Today's Gossip: The Past of Paradise Island, the Bizarre Tsunami, Zatanna's Craving]
[Reward for watching the drama: Zoom in]
[Magnification: Greatly enhances any ability for an extremely short period of time.]
The reason Connors isn't in a hurry to join the gossip is precisely because he has gained the newly acquired "amplification" ability.
He could try to amplify Zatanna's "Phantom Teleportation" magic and teleport the superheroes there in one go once they were ready to go to Atlantis.
However, to be on the safe side, the "Kusama Man" perspective is essential.
"If you're planning to go to Atlantis, remember to let me know on the phone, and I'll go with you then."
Connors patted "The Flash" Barry on the shoulder, saying that Atlantis was nowhere in the ocean and teleporting there would be too risky.
The risks of being teleported from the 19th-floor apartment to the beach are negligible.
"With me here, why would we need a phone?" Barry puffed out his chest and patted it, looking very reliable.
"I'm afraid you'll have a mental breakdown—" Connors said.
"—" Barry seemed to understand something, and returned to Hal's side with a sad expression. "Hal, after things are over in Atlantis, come have a drink with me."
In the nineteenth-floor apartment, seeing the cactus, which hadn't changed in several days, transform once again, the male occupant of the apartment burst into tears.
"My youth has returned!"
Meanwhile, in the apartment two doors down from Connors' rented room, someone asked, "I was almost asleep just now, what made you suddenly so interested?"
When Aquaman Arthur and Superman Clarke went to the World Council, Connors was indeed preparing to go to sleep.
As a result, before he could fall asleep, Zatanna, in her haste, stripped him naked and sat on him.
Connors was a little confused, but he didn't resist Zatanna's warm gesture. Instead, he used the exercise to shake off his drowsiness.
"You—you don't need to worry about it," Zatanna said, blushing.
She couldn't very well say that she had spied through the spatial rift three times in a row, only to run into Connors exercising each time.
Later, Connors rode "Catwoman" Selena on horseback, and even though Zatanna had never experienced anything like that, she learned the basics from it.
After the Paradise Island incident, Zatanna, sitting on the skeleton horse and pressed tightly against Connors' back, felt weak all over.
So, taking advantage of Connors being extremely sleepy and about to go to bed, Zatanna decisively decided to give it a try, and once she started, she couldn't stop.
"I really didn't mean to interfere, but the way you're using your teeth is a bit off."
"Connors said, and gave Zatanna a punitive pinch," he said.
"Ouch—" Zatanna cried out softly, "It hurts!"
Connors released his grip and, as Zatanna blushed, leaned in and gently bit her.
"Ouch! Ouch—" Zatanna's face showed a hint of pain.
When Connors loosened his grip, faint teeth marks were clearly visible on the snow-capped mountain:
"That's normal, it hurts when you use your teeth too."
This is called an eye for an eye. Connors felt that his understanding of Chinese vocabulary had deepened a bit.
He had been lying on the sofa, his head resting on Zatanna Feng's firm thighs, and had been asleep for less than an hour when he was woken up by the ringing of the phone.
Batman's deep voice came from the other end of the phone:
"You're right, we've caught Deathstroke. Although he didn't reveal who his employer was, we found out from the financial transactions that the employer was using Spanish gold coins."
"Arthur said that this was the currency Atlantis used to trade with humans, and it was almost entirely obtained from shipwrecks from ancient times."
"We are now preparing to depart for Atlantis. You have one minute to travel. The location is Gotham Harbor."
After saying that, without waiting for Connors' reply, Mr. Wayne on the other end of the phone slammed down the phone.
Next time I'll hang up before Batman finishes speaking, so he won't have a chance to hang up on me.
Connors shook his head, tossed his phone aside, stood up, and looked at Zatanna:
"Let's do an experiment now."
Zatanna looked at Connors curiously:
"What do you need me to do?"
"Use your 'Apparition' spell. Location: Gotham Harbor. That's the place we went to watch the tsunami not long ago."
