I become light in American comics

Chapter 39 If I say no, I mean no.



The night is getting deeper and deeper. There are usually no serious pedestrians on the streets in Gotham City at night, and the streets at this time are even more deserted. Shadows cover the block silently, only the darkness and the bright lights flickering in the darkness.

A bright light flashed in the dark night, it was a red and silver mecha. It trailed a jet tail flame behind it, and electric sparks continued to crackle at the bottom of its right foot. The propelling flames flashed and flickered, and its entire body swayed as if its center of gravity was unstable.

After flying for a moment, a beam of white light flew from the other side of the night, penetrated the armor and got into it. Countless light particles condensed and combined, transforming into a human form, and the body shape perfectly fit into the hollow of the armor.

Shen You, who transformed from the photon state back to human form, opened his eyes. The built-in UI interface was suspended on the monitor in front of him, and the built-in identity recognition authentication was passed.

"Welcome back, sir." Pal's gentle voice sounded, "The hosting mode has been lifted and we are switching back to manual operation."

After regaining control of the armor, Shen You suddenly felt as if his predecessors in the past had finished fighting monsters and flew back to the phone to fool his teammates about what they had been doing for the three minutes they had just hung up.

Thinking about it this way, the car behind him is still flying in the sky. It must be quite rare compared to his predecessors. The Victory Condor cried when Silent Feiyan No. 1 heard this, and Xincheng Dagu kept saying all night long that he didn’t believe the rumors and wouldn’t spread the rumors—how could there be any reason for a plane not to fall off after doing it?

"The anti-radar system is operating normally and the stealth mode has been activated."

"Very good. Go back and look at the data from this trip."

After flying back to the laboratory, he couldn't wait to access the battle data collected this time, and conducted a detailed analysis and evaluation of the capabilities of the armor and the enemy.

"The tactics are effective, but they still need to be improved." Shen You reflected and concluded, "The main methods used this time are all aimed at the senses, and the methods are somewhat repetitive."

"If we can find different entry points to design more means, it should be more effective."

"The other main issue is armor."

It didn't stand out because the opponent he faced wasn't strong enough before. This time, after testing it with a high-level opponent, he discovered that his first-generation mobile Ultra Armor still had a lot of room for improvement.

The main problem should be the material.

Parts are easily damaged by the opponent's super power, mainly because the purity of N metal is too low and the hardness is not enough. N metal is a cosmic-level artifact. Theoretically speaking, even Superman, the purest N metal, cannot break through its defenses easily.

More importantly, N metal has superb resistance to magic. As an M78 star whose civilization talent mainly focuses on technology, although magic can also be dealt with, it is still a slightly weak point compared to technology. He still wants to stack magic resistance as high as possible.

Shen You thought for a while, then walked out of the laboratory and came to the kitchen.

The old wizard Shazam is leaning on the recliner, squinting his eyes and studying the recipe of "3600 Home Cooking Recipes" in his hand.

It seems that he has fully integrated into his role, and even seems to be a little obsessed with the trend of modern cooking recently.

When he heard Shen You's question, the old wizard didn't even raise his head. He continued to look at the recipe and said, "No more."

"Really gone?" Shen You refused to give up.

"Gone."

"Not a drop left?"

"Not a drop left."

Shen You thought for a while and said consciously or unconsciously: "It suddenly occurred to me that the new oven produced by Wayne Group seems to be really good. Our store is considering replacing it."

The old wizard shuddered and raised his head suddenly, a flash of light briefly flashing in his eyes.

But it was fleeting. He quickly resumed studying his recipes, looking like a master from this world, and calmly touched his white beard.

"It's just a creation of mortals. A great wizard doesn't need to rely on external things. Why do you think I'm interested in that kind of thing?"

Shen You felt funny in his heart. When I saw an advertisement for a new oven on TV that day, my eyes almost widened. Why did I keep saying this?

But his face remained calm and he just pretended to be pity: "Well, I was going to buy one tomorrow. If you're not interested, just forget it. It just saves some money."

Sorry to disturb you, senior, please continue. "

As he spoke, he turned around and prepared to go out.

Upon hearing this, the old wizard immediately sat up straight.

"Wait a minute, come back!" The old man rolled his eyes and said, "I thought about it, some of the creations of mortals are quite interesting. Although they are not as wise as wizards, it doesn't hurt to give them a try."

Shen You looked at him with a smile.

The old wizard retracted his eyes with a guilty conscience: "But N metal is really gone."

Before Shen You could say another word, he immediately changed his tone: "But I know where there is more."

"Oh?" Shen You became interested.

N metal is the most common god-level material in DC, but its commonness is also compared to other similar materials. Shen You could immediately recall the places where N Metal was found in the original work, such as the Bat Cave, the Justice League Watchtower, or in the hands of Eagle Man.

Anyway, if you rule it out, it seems that none of these places exist at this point in time.

"I once fought side by side with the Greek gods. They had a brave and skilled team under their command." The old wizard said, "A team composed of the bravest female warriors, and they are protected by the gods and will never grow old."

"Paradise Island?" Shen You's eyes lit up.

"Huh?" The old wizard was surprised, "You know?"

"certainly."

For DC comic fans, there shouldn’t be anyone who doesn’t know this. Paradise Island is the hometown of Wonder Woman Diana Prince, a small island protected by the Greek gods.

All the people on that island are immortal female warriors who call themselves Amazons. Their island is surrounded by a magical mist that disappears from sight once they move far away from the island. Trying to find the way back is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Is there N metal on Paradise Island?

This is indeed Shen You's knowledge blind spot.

It's just that Amazons are famous for hating men. Even if N metal does exist, it might not be that easy to get hold of it.

Of course, we can figure this out later. First of all, you must at least know where Paradise Island is.

"Do you know where it is?"

"I don't know." The old wizard spread his hands.

Shen You stood up and was about to leave, muttering: "It suddenly occurred to me that the store's finances have been a little tight recently."

"But I can count." The old wizard said quickly.

"Huh?" Shen You sat back, "I heard that no one can find the way to Paradise Island?"

"Oh, that's a mortal." The old wizard stroked his beard confidently.

Shen You immediately thought that in the early comics, it was said that Wonder Woman would never return once she left the island, but in subsequent stories she would still run to Paradise Island every few days. Come to think of it, this fog is not so absolute, it just needs the correct way to open it.

"Can you calculate the coordinates of Paradise Island?" Shen You was surprised, "Is it so powerful?"

The old wizard leaned back tactically: "What is the Supreme Wizard?"

"Okay, please." Shen You smiled, "Let's buy a new oven now. Uh, wait a moment."

Shen You thought for a moment and looked through the trash can next to the kitchen.

"Huh? Where have you gone?"

The old wizard blinked: "What are you looking for?"

"That piece of advertising paper, the one advertising the oven. If you buy it with that piece of paper, you can get a discount."

Shen You frowned.

"It's strange. Did I throw it here today?"

It's been a long time since he was reborn as Ultraman and he hasn't forgotten or remembered anything. He replayed the scene from earlier today in his mind, convinced that he should have crumpled up the advertising paper and thrown it into this trash can.

The old wizard remained silent and cast a spell silently. He made a seal with his left hand, turned his right palm, magic power surged out, and a piece of crumpled advertising paper appeared lightly in his hand.

Shen You looked at the crumpled paper and was silent for a few seconds.

"So," he finally couldn't help but say, "you took this piece of paper from the trash can?"

"No." The old wizard's eyes wandered away, "It's just a simple finding spell. There is nothing that my wizard Shazam can't find."

Shen You looked at him suspiciously.

"Young man, why are you staring at me like this? If you say no, you won't!"

The old wizard was so angry that he blew his beard.

"Fine."

Shen You nodded and took the crumpled paper from his hand.

Then just pretend it’s gone.
