Chapter 136 A Person Who Loves to Learn
"Well done, Elementalist, you've been a great help this time," Firestorm said.
"Green Arrow, you're not the worst off." Martian Manhunter pointed to a coughing figure not far from them.
Amanda, a high-ranking member of the "Sky Eye Society," was in an even worse state than "Green Arrow," with half of her clothes torn to shreds and her mouth and nose filled with dust.
"Green Arrow" showed no mercy to his opponent, and drew his bow and arrow:
"There are several hundred people in the medical center. You're responsible for this, Amanda!"
Amanda was a little confused:
"Me? What are you talking about?"
Cyborg stayed close to Superman, and he also said to Amanda:
"Our visit to Dr. Madman was not fruitless; we learned that the Justice League of America was formed to fight against the Justice League."
"The murder of Dr. Light and the framing of Superman must be related to you and the Outsider. Now the Outsider's whereabouts are unknown. Amanda, you should confess first."
"Mars Manhunter" stepped in front of all the superheroes and spoke to Amanda.
He completely shielded the weakened "Superman" behind him to prevent him from suddenly attacking and injuring Superman again if the series of events were indeed related to Amanda.
Amanda launched into a tirade against the skepticism of numerous superheroes:
"Are you fucking out of your mind? I don't know what the mad doctor told you, but I swear I want to get to the bottom of this just like you do!"
"Firestorm" hesitated for a moment; something had been on his mind for some time.
He is "Firestorm," a composite of two independent human individuals. The one who dominates the body is named Ronald, while the other consciousness within the body is named Jason.
At this moment, within "Firestorm's" consciousness, Jason is trying to stop Ronald from speaking:
"Don't tell anyone! The whole thing is complicated enough; revealing it will only widen the gap between the superheroes and the Sky Eye Society!"
But it was his phrase "separate room" that made Ronald make up his mind. "Firestorm" said to the others, "Everyone..."
"What is it, Firestorm?" Cyborg asked.
"While you were receiving treatment at the medical center, and Cyborg was performing an autopsy on Dr. Light, Amanda found me and asked me to learn how to make kryptonite, saying it was just in case—"
"That's enough!" Amanda shouted angrily. "Have you all made enough of a scene? You're all my men—"
"Elemental Girl" muttered weakly to herself, "We, the Justice League, are not."
Amanda ignored the "Elementalist's" monologue and continued to argue with the superheroes:
"I did have 'Firestorm' create Kryptonite, but that was to prevent Superman from going out of control. However, what happened to Superman and Doctor Light have nothing to do with me, and I don't know what happened!"
"If you want to gather in a circle and condemn me, we can do that later—Green Arrow just said there are hundreds of people waiting for the superheroes to rescue them at the medical center!"
"Amanda is right. We should carry out the rescue first, and then continue to investigate the truth of this matter," Elementalist said. "It would be best to find the 'Outsider.' This guy has always been at the forefront of fighting crime before, so why has he been nowhere to be found this time?" Cyborg agreed.
Below the Temple of Hephaestus, in the "House of Mystery," Connors is discussing academic qualifications with Lady of Shangdu.
Lady Shangdu's erudition was simply unfathomable.
If Connors hadn't used his "precision manipulation" ability to cause a series of unadjustments in his body, it would have been questionable whether he could even reach the deepest part.
"I no longer lack physical abilities, but magic remains my weakness. Although my magic resistance is not zero, I have too few ways to deal with magic."
"Besides, the physical transformation can only be achieved through 'mimicry,' but I can't exactly transform into a gigantic woman and go to her place—"
"While 'precision control' allows for minor adjustments to the body, this was already the limit for Lady Shangdu—"
"If another long and difficult journey comes along, then I really won't be able to help in time."
After a period of time where he had no shortage of combat and physical abilities, Connors unusually began to hope that the "spectator system" could give him the rewards he needed.
Whether it's magic or the ability to freely control one's body, Connors has a certain need for both.
"I noticed a while ago that you seem to be able to use a new ability every now and then. How do you do that?"
"Atomic Girl" sat on Connors' shoulders, grabbing her earlobe with one hand to steady herself and avoid falling off due to the bumps, and asked a question.
"This is a reward for my diligence and eagerness to learn," Connors said casually.
"This mysterious house is amazing! It's practically tailor-made for you—wherever you go, the plants will follow," Atomic Girl said cheerfully.
Connors: "...That's enough, if you say another word you're going to get fucked."
He is currently multitasking and doesn't have the extra energy to chat idly with "Atomic Girl".
Inside the Metropolitan prison, Pandora stood before Lex Luthor.
He was shrouded in a long red robe, his face with short silver hair and red markings, and he held a magic box with three eyes in his hands.
Pandora's image didn't frighten Lex Luthor; instead, it piqued the curiosity of Superman's archenemy.
"You think I can save you?"
"Yes, you can save everyone, Lake Luther," Pandora said.
After retrieving the box from Superman, she followed the route Connors had indicated and finally found Luthor.
According to Connors, Superman is the purest person in the world, while his adversary Luthor has the darkest heart in the world.
"Okay." Luther didn't object to Pandora's suggestion.
With the thought that he was just idling around in prison anyway, he prepared to reach for the Pandora's Box.
He wanted to see how someone defined as a "villain" by the world would save the world.
But just as Lex Luthor reached out, before he could even touch Pandora's box, Pandora was pulled back by a tremendous force.
Luther: "...—
He saw clearly the source of the force that caused Pandora to retreat, and crossed his arms with a look of anticipation:
"Oh, that should be interesting."
Pandora was now bound by the Lasso of Truth, with the other end of the rope firmly held in Wonder Woman's hand.
Standing alongside Wonder Woman are Aquaman and Zatanna from the Justice League, and Black Orchid from the Dark Justice League.
A team consisting of Frankenstein's monster, Hawkman from the Justice League of America, and Stargirl.
"Give me the box, Pandora. It has to come with us," Wonder Woman said to Pandora, gripping the Lasso of Truth tightly.
No, I can't give it to you.
Even bound by the Lasso of Truth, Pandora, who could only speak the truth, still refused Wonder Woman's request.
But Wonder Woman didn't come to her to discuss anything. Since Pandora refused to hand over the box, she decided to take it by force.
Lex Luthor, who had been expecting a good show, suddenly realized:
"Since Wonder Woman wants this, I want it too!"
Wonder Woman and Luthor both reach for the Pandora's Box at the same time. As an ordinary human, Luthor is no match for a demigod in terms of speed and falls behind Wonder Woman by a step.
Even though Pandora wanted to stop it, it was too late. Wonder Woman held the box in her hands, and as a crimson light shone, a third eye opened on her forehead.
"I own this box—"
Wonder Woman slowly drew her Vulcan sword from her belt.
"And this box contains me too!"
