"Rachel! We're rich!"

After suppressing the urge to criticize Oliver Quinn, Lee Jung brought back a bank card and some cash for everyday spending.

As for why I want to criticize Oliver Quinn...

This guy's character seems to overlap with Batman's, and he's always being overshadowed by Batman, but this show-off doesn't seem to have any awareness of the need to seriously conceal his identity.

The disguise involves wearing a mask and hood, but both identities feature a small, upturned golden mustache and have the same eye color.

With her strong self-control, Li Zhen carefully followed the procedures of these masked heroes. In the reception room of Quinn Industries, she brought up the matter of Green Arrow asking him to come and collect money from Oliver, a well-known local tycoon.

Oliver looked as if he had just realized something.

"I see, you're Green Arrow's friend."

Then, Oliver, feigning profundity, walked to the French windows with his hands behind his back and talked for nearly half an hour about the story of Green Arrow and the spiritual bond between him and Green Arrow—a profound friendship that felt like they had known each other for a long time.

His words were full of praise, expressing his deep respect for the masked knight who silently guarded the star city in the darkness.

The elegance of the language and sentence structure used during this period is comparable to that of Shakespeare reborn.

Even with Lee Jung's level of patience, she almost wanted to rush over, pin Oliver to the desk, and pluck out all the blond beard that twitched with every movement of his lips.

Rachel initially glanced at the rolls of change Li Zhen had brought back and let out a cold snort.

Rachel only started to feel something was off when Li Zhen pulled out two newly bought cell phones and the bank card.

She picked up the phone that was handed to her and looked at it over and over again.

This was something very new and exciting for Rachel, who had grown up in a sacred realm where only magic existed.

After playing with it for a few minutes and figuring out some of its functions, Rachel finally focused her attention on the bank card.

"How much money is in here?"

"Both phones are linked to this card; you can check it yourself."

Five minutes later, Rachel's screams came from the escape pod on the sea cliff.

Although she still had those dull, lifeless eyes, a glint of light began to flicker in Rachel's eyes.

He watched quietly as Rachel slowly tapped on her phone, muttering plans for the two of them to go to the Metropolitan Metropolis early the next morning for a shopping spree.

"Let's buy two big enough beds first, so we won't have to sleep in sleeping bags all the time."

"Then I'll go buy some clothes. Although I can clean my body with magic, your clothes are all too old. Apart from your combat suit, I have no desire to repair the other clothes with magic."

"That means we'll also need a wardrobe!"

"A deep fryer, a frying pan, a stove, and some seasonings from the human world—that's how you make fish with different flavors..."

"This escape pod has a constant temperature function, so there's no need to purchase temperature control equipment."

Rachel suddenly looked at Li Zhen cautiously.

"Can I buy another dryer? I don't want to always have to use magic to dry things."

Li Zhen spread his hands.

"Whatever, you can also buy a washing machine. Actually, I'm not completely clueless. Although I didn't have much formal education back then, I can still do some simple mechanical modifications."

Li Zhen glanced around the escape pod.

"This escape pod can be modified to separate and purify seawater, and its energy conversion into electricity is also very durable."

I don't know how Bruce did it, but he not only repaired the escape pod, but also helped to recharge the energy inside.

Then Li Zhen interrupted Rachel, who was still lost in her daydream, and pointed to the top of the escape pod.

"But after buying all these things, there's not enough space inside."

Rachel stood there for a few seconds, then her eyes lit up, and she started taking notes on her phone with her clumsy fingers again.

"Then let's buy some more timber, steel, adhesives, glass..."

Li Zhen was a little confused.

"Why buy these?"

Rachel rolled her eyes, giving her a matter-of-fact look.

"I have magic, you have superpowers, and you even have some practical skills. There's a clearing on the beach right here; we can build a house ourselves!"

Rachel then continued to tap away happily on her phone, and as she became more familiar with this technological marvel, she increased her speed.

It wasn't until a full half minute had passed that Rachel realized it was a little too quiet around her.

She raised her head in surprise and looked at Li Zhen, who was as still as a block of wood.

Why did you suddenly stop talking?

Li Zhen stared blankly at Rachel, who was holding her phone.

The other person sat on the ground with a pair of long, fair legs that were slightly different in color, their gray hood hanging loosely on their back, and their cloak spread out messily on the floor behind them.

Her light blue pupils were bright and sparkling, and a few strands of short silver-gray hair fell across her forehead.

Suddenly, I snapped back to reality.

He stood up somewhat awkwardly, turned around, and opened the escape pod door.

"I'm going out for some exercise. If it gets too late, remember to go to sleep first."

Rachel leaped into the water and heard the splash.

Although she felt that Li Zhen had suddenly become a little strange, the thought of going on a shopping spree tomorrow and experiencing the human world that Gotham's dark corners had never seen before, thanks to her ample funds, quickly filled Rachel's mind with all sorts of ideas.

He lowered his head and continued typing to record.

The escape pod door remained open, and the interior lights shone out, reflecting on the shimmering sea.

Li Zhen moved swiftly yet aimlessly forward on the dark seabed.

In reality, Li Zhen, who had hardly ever been in the water in either of her two lives, still relied mainly on activating her flight ability to move around underwater.

However, water has a higher density, so it also provides greater resistance.

Because he was completely lost in thought, his speed increased, and he unconsciously continued to rush deeper and deeper into the unknown.

A surging torrent of water swept up around him and behind him, scattering innocent sea creatures into a chaotic mess.

"Damn it, I was single for thirty years in my past life, why do I suddenly feel like I need to settle down?"

"This is so terrible! Rachel is only fourteen!"

Before Li Zhen knew it, a dazzling light suddenly appeared before her eyes.

This made him quickly come to his senses.

After moving forward a few hundred meters, a dazzling city that defies description came into Li Zhen's view.

"Is this Atlantis? Where have I ended up?"

He glanced up, but the unprecedented depth made it impossible for him to see the starlight reflected on the sea.

The massive undercurrents created by Li Zhen as she swam along had already alerted the Atlanteans, who were extremely sensitive to changes in water flow.

Two guards wielding silver spears rushed out of the bubble structure covering Atlantis with wary expressions and swam towards Li Zhen.

Li Zhen narrowed his eyes, suddenly remembering the two pearls that the Sea King had given him before.

A moment later, Li Zhen grabbed the two terrified, screaming guards like chicks and rushed into the magical bubble of Atlantis.

As the salty, fishy, ​​and heavy air rushed into her nostrils again, Li Zhen casually tossed the two guards aside.

"Where's Aquaman? Tell him to come out and see me!"
