American Comics: Today's Big News

Chapter 90 Actively Initiating the Event

Cindy, you're coming with me.

Connors set off immediately, both to find the Martian hunter and to retrieve the information transmission device from the white Martian.

As an "outsider" with a gossip-eating system, Connors naturally hopes that the world is as lively as possible, so that he can have a lot of gossip to eat, the rewards can be good enough, and his strength can become stronger.

Only those with sufficient strength can possibly reverse the future that "The Flash" Barry cannot see.

The resulting destruction is inevitable, but in Connors' eyes, it's better than the entire world mysteriously disappearing like Natasha's world.

If he couldn't find a "Mars Manhunter," Connors even decided to initiate the "Martian Invasion" event himself.

The White Martian's signal device was located in a research building in Gotham. It was already late, and Connors and Cindy sped toward their destination in the darkness.

Halfway through the journey, Cindy Moon, the "Spider Silk," suddenly spoke:

"Someone is following us."

"Ignore him," Connors said.

Connors didn't even need to think about who was tracking him in Gotham; it was none other than Batman.

He didn't believe that, given Batman Wayne's suspicious nature, he had actually gained the other party's trust in the Atlantis palace.

However, in both the comics and the animation, there are so few people that even Connors doesn't know who they are.

In extreme situations, Batman would even be wary of Alfred, Batman's butler, let alone himself, an "outsider" full of secrets in Batman's eyes.

[Reward for watching the drama unfold: Mimicry]

Mimicry: to imitate a life form that one has seen, and to change oneself in ways that include, but are not limited to, stretching, shaping, and elongating.

[Excluding special abilities of special individuals]

The reward for watching Cindy and Natasha exercise together in New York has been submitted.

According to the description, Connors abandoned the idea of ​​turning into Clark and sunbathing, an ability that has little combat ability but is quite convenient for watching others play.

I wonder if combining the abilities of "magnification" and "mimicry" could achieve Kryptonian lineage—

With this idea in mind, Connors and Cindy arrived in front of a building in Gotham.

Using Cindy's spider webs, the two quickly climbed up the exterior wall of the high-rise building.

The presence of the "Master Locksmith" allowed Connors to easily open the closed window from the outside and successfully enter the building.

Using the combined abilities of "Magnification," "Human Limits," and "Precision Control," Connors' physical abilities increased several times over in a short period of time, and he punched the wall without hesitation.

Connors retrieved the information transmission device hidden inside the wall, which possesses the ability to "precisely control" it.

The crack in the wall did not damage the device.

"Cindy, familiarize yourself with the aura of this thing, and then search globally for any similar auras."

Connors said to Cindy Moon, who was looking around at the facilities inside the building.

Cindy took the device without a word, used her "spider-sense" to observe a wide area, and then shook her head.

"A humanoid creature without green skin, tall in stature, and possibly with a somewhat pointed head?"

Connors, fearing that Cindy might have missed something, or that the aura of the white-green Martians was different, asked again.

"No." Cindy shook her head again.

Connors sighed with some regret:

"Then let's get started."

He was about to activate the signal device of the White Martian in his hand, and actively initiate the "White Martian Invasion" event in "JLA#1" of the comic.

Once the white Martians arrive on Earth, the "Mars Hunter," a green Martian, will not stand idly by, even if he is in dire straits, he will send signals to the outside world.

At that time, external pressure will force the superheroes to unite against the enemy, and Connors can then legitimately establish the Justice League.

The "intrusion incident" and the "formation of the Justice League" are two significant pieces of news that are enough to elevate Connors's power to a new level.

"Then we can let Lao De do whatever he wants and start all sorts of big events—"

Connors muttered to himself as he and Cindy headed straight for the radio telescope at the top of the building.

The comics don't show how to use this device, but the anime does; Connors remembers that it had to be used with a telescope.

Radio telescopes are very large, resembling a large wok, with three flat, narrow supports (feed cabin support frames) extending from them. The feed cabin of the telescope is located at the center where the supports converge.

At this moment, Connors and Cindy were both standing on the support frame.

"I seriously doubt whether your actions are legal."

Batman's voice came from behind him, but Connors remained unmoved and placed the signal transmitter in his hand into the feed pod.

The irregularly shaped signal device with strange patterns seemed to come alive, rapidly melting and collapsing into the telescope's feed cabin.

As soon as the device was put down, Batman threw over the noose he used to restrain the prisoner.

"You know this thing can't hold me," Connors said with a smile, turning around and picking up the ropes binding him, then throwing them away.

"Of course I know that won't stop you," Batman said, already lunging forward. "I was going to follow you to see what you're up to, but you seem to have a very clear purpose."

"I should have taken you down inside the building earlier."

After saying this, Batman had already arrived in front of Connors.

"Mr. Wayne, you probably can't beat me," Connors said with a smile. "You may not understand what I'm doing, but time is of the essence, and I have to get some big things done."

Connors meant that they needed to get some high-quality gossip, but Batman clearly misunderstood:

"The big thing you're talking about, is it becoming a criminal?"

Connors was stunned:

"A crime? You mean I threw something into a telescope? That's all?"

This thing doesn't even qualify as a melon.

Batman opened his mouth, wasn't this a crime? He wanted to clarify Connors's purpose:

"Destroying this facility doesn't seem to serve much purpose for you. What do you intend to do with it? And what was that thing you were holding just now?"

Even he didn't know that Gotham had such mysterious things that he had never seen before. Batman didn't even know how Connors knew that they were inside the walls of the research building.

Recalling the plot from his memory, Connors said:

"Aliens have infiltrated our ranks. It's too much trouble to find them one by one. I'll give you a big one."

"Lure those aliens to Earth, and wipe them out along with the natives."

Batman hesitated for a moment:

"Just like with General Zod? General Zod alone razed half of the metropolis to the ground, and the city will be shrouded in shadow for the next decade or so."

Connors shook his index finger at Batman:

"That was just child's play; this time it's global."

Otherwise, the "Hundred Martians Invasion" incident would not have become the opportunity for the formation of the original Justice League, thus ushering in the era of "team formation".
