Chapter 147 Sisters
The interior of the Mysterious House had by now been transformed into a hot spring by Connors.
After being slapped twice on the buttocks by Connors and soaked in warm water for more than ten minutes, Lady Shangdu finally came to her senses in a daze.
"Madam, you're awake?" Connors handed a peeled banana to Lady Shangdu, who was soaking in the hot spring.
Lady Shangdu hesitated for a moment, then brought the banana to her mouth and swallowed it.
Connors quickly dropped the banana, waved his hand in front of Lady Shangdu to confirm she was conscious, and then asked:
"Madam, I wish to learn magic from you."
Lady Shangdu's skin was pinkish, a result of the steam from the hot springs. She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and asked Connors:
"Which one do you want to learn? I rarely use magic, but thousands of years of survival experience have given me enough magic to accumulate."
"I'll learn them all," Connors said.
The reward for being a bystander in the "Three-Body War" is "Magic Affinity," which allows one to learn magic extremely quickly with no learning curve.
This allowed Connors to master any kind of magic at an extremely fast pace.
The newly acquired ability does not come with magical knowledge; Connors needs to actively learn it. It is an ability with a high potential but a low potential.
"What do I excel at?" Lady Shangdu rested her arms on the edge of the hot spring and looked up at Connors on the shore.
"We don't need that for now. Do you have any stealth or illusion magic?" Connors asked.
"Yes, I'll teach you," said Lady Shangdu, lying in the hot spring as she explained magic incantations and other spell-casting techniques to Connors.
Harley Quinn and "Poison Ivy" Ivy were relaxing in the hot spring on the other side. Harley couldn't help but say:
"This little house is really well-equipped. If it weren't for Little Pa, I would definitely have taken it from him."
"After soaking in the hot springs, it's time to get moving. It's a shame Connors only let us knock out the other us in this world," Ivy said.
She had no intention of showing any mercy to the "Poison Ivy" of this world. On the contrary, if Connor hadn't specifically reminded her, she would have even wanted to kill her and take the Green of the Realm.
Harley Quinn didn't have such intentions; her "Fade Ashes" weren't something she possessed, but rather something she stole from Solomon Grundy.
"I'd like to see what Harley Quinn is like in this world. Maybe we can become sisterhoods?"
"-I think I understand why Connors wouldn't let us kill Harley and Poison Ivy in this world." Ivy suddenly realized.
She thought of a key word: "twins".
"The so-called psychopath is someone who has completely lost their conscience and has no love, pity, or guilt in their heart. You perfectly fit the above definition, and you are also a master at using harpoons."
"You are the perfect candidate for the Suicide Squad, Black Bat."
In a Louisiana prison, Connors held documents in his hands and read the information aloud to the person in front of him in a serious manner.
Instead of using his ability to transform into Amanda Waller, the true founder of the Suicide Squad, he maintained his original appearance.
"Are you an 'outsider'?"
Black Bat, who is currently in prison, was not wearing his signature suit. A question mark was visibly drawn on his black face as he looked at Connors with a puzzled expression.
"I am Amanda," Connors said.
“But Amanda is a woman. There’s no way she could just walk into my cell without any precautions,” Black Bat said. “You think I’ve never seen Amanda before? This prison is under her jurisdiction.”
"Oh, then I don't have to be Amanda. Blackbat, how about leaving prison and going out for some fun?" Connors casually tossed the documents in his hand into the toilet in his cell.
Black Bat continued to press:
"You're a member of the Justice League, and you got me into the Suicide Squad? Did you take over this prison from Amanda?"
"I'm not going to join that damn Suicide Squad. Everyone knows it's a scam. Once you accept a mission, you're never free again. All you get is one new mission after another."
"Until he failed in a mission and was killed by a bomb implanted in his body."
"I won't join."
Connors stared dumbfounded as Blackbat launched into a long speech for a long time, only saying dejectedly after he finished:
"I'm reciting my lines, don't you dare say 'Loser? The guy hired by the government to fight Superman?'" Black Bat was quite surprised.
"Yes. As for why you're rambling on and on, I'm not recruiting you into the Suicide Squad—I'm here to recruit you into Lex Luthor's team. The reason is—Aquaman is dead, and I've come to find you to avenge him." Connors nodded, confirming Blackbat's guess.
Black Bat looked at Connors with an incredulous expression:
"Are you sure I'm the one with a mental problem, and not you? You want me to avenge my enemy? Are you crazy?"
Connors stared at Black Bat in disbelief; it was the first time he'd ever been called a psychopath by someone with a mental illness.
"Are you going to Egypt or not? If you want revenge, put on your battle suit, go to Happy Harbor on Rhodes Island and join the other villains, and get your hands on Aquaman's Trident."
"After that, go to Metropolis. Don't worry about anything else in the sea. If any unlucky guy falls from the sky, rescue him and bring him ashore to meet up with Lex Luthor."
Black Bat remained silent, looking up at the sturdy walls and iron bars surrounding the prison:
"I don't know how you got in, but it's practically impossible for you to get out safely. This is a prison specifically for superhuman villains."
"And I have a bomb behind my head."
When Connors heard Blackbat say this, he knew that the other man was already interested, so he walked over to him and easily removed the bomb from the back of Blackbat's head as if he were eating or drinking.
Ignoring Black Bat's bewildered expression as he scratched the back of his head, he then kicked the prison wall again.
With a loud crash, a large hole was instantly torn in the wall.
"Oops, wrong one, sorry, please continue." On the other side of the wall was still a cell, and the sleeping prisoner inside was startled by Connors.
Connors apologized and withdrew his foot.
Black Bat sighed and pointed to the fence:
"Instead of smashing the wall, you might as well tear down the fence. I'm going to the prison's crime equipment showroom to put on my battle suit." "Oh." Connors walked to the cell fence, reached out and yanked, deforming the specially crafted metal bars:
"I reckon all the prison guards are gathering here with guns. Go handle it yourselves."
"I've memorized the layout of the entire prison long ago." Black Bat grinned and smiled at Connors.
He took off his shirt and threw it aside, then ran wildly in one direction, his dark skin instantly blending into the darkness.
"Racial talent, innate invisibility, huh?" Connors scoffed and turned to walk towards the wall.
His body passed through several walls and arrived outside the prison.
"Lady Shangdu's magic is truly amazing," Connors exclaimed sincerely.
He infiltrated the prison silently using magic he learned from Lady Shangdu.
Since Lady Shangdu never used it, she had long forgotten the name of the magic, but she could not forget its effect: simply making the body ethereal and able to pass through matter.
Connors's visit to Black Bat was just a side trip; his main objective was to get Harley Quinn to the Suicide Squad.
Black Bat moved with incredible speed inside the prison. He seemed to truly know the prison inside and out, just as he claimed—he had already sabotaged many circuits and used electrical sparks to ignite a large fire.
The fire stirred up the supervillains inside the prison, with "The Vengeful Demon" bearing the brunt of the attack.
This is a bald man covered in tattoos who can absorb and release flames.
He absorbed a large amount of flame and successfully broke the locks on most of the cell doors, freeing countless criminals.
Amanda Waller, a high-ranking leader of the "Sky Eye Society" and the leader of the American Justice League, had just finished the Three-Body War and came to the prison to try to recruit people, but the situation in the prison made her furious.
"What are you doing? Get back to your cells!" Amanda stormed out of her office and shouted at the prisoners inside the jail.
The prison's fire suppression system was activated, and the flames were quickly extinguished, but the "vengeful demon" had already reached Amanda:
"Amanda, you're used to being a prison guard, you've never seen anything like this before, have you? Now I'll let you experience what it's like to be locked in a stinking cell."
He grabbed Amanda by the neck:
"You used us to fill your 'suicide squad,' and you're more of a villain than most of us."
Amanda calmed down from her anger, and even with her neck being gripped, she still looked at the "vengeful demon" with disdain:
"You don't deserve to be in the Suicide Squad, you second-rate mutant."
"And do you think the bomb on the back of your head is just for show?"
She pressed a button, and the head of the "vengeful demon" choking her exploded instantly, while Amanda rolled away from the blast radius.
Under the suppression of the prison guards, except for a small number of criminals who managed to escape, the majority of the other criminals returned to their cells.
Amanda then went to a basement in the prison and connected to the communication equipment:
"Death Shooter? This is Amanda, speak."
"Amanda? What is it? Harley Quinn and I were handling the task we agreed to do before we finished—"
The Deadshot on the other end of the communicator said:
"By the way, the bombs on our heads have been defused, the suicide squad is gone, so you'd better leave me alone."
The instant Amanda and "Death Shooter" began their conversation, a black smoke cloak appeared behind Connors, and his body vanished instantly.
He wanted to take this opportunity to quietly replace Harley Quinn from Earth 0 with Harley from Earth 3.
Skin color was originally a problem, but Connors and Lady Shangdu had just figured it out in the hot springs, and the magic of "illusion" was just right to deal with this situation.
