American Comics: Today's Big News

Chapter 474 You just mentioned "lock", right?

Connors didn't care whether the Skrulls had invaded the world; he was more concerned about whether North Star Lorna had been replaced.

If Lorna, the North Star whom they painstakingly brought back to Earth Zero, turns out to be a Skrull, then things will get really interesting. Connors will be laughed at by Barry and the others for a whole year.

He quickly stopped what he was doing and frantically searched his memory for anything about Polaris Lorna. Sure enough, he found that Polaris Lorna had not been injured, either in Garland Prison or during the subsequent prison break.

As for Lorna's claim that her abilities were suppressed and needed to be restored, no one else could verify it.

With Lorna's identity firmly in mind, Connors continued his investigation methodically, discovering something interesting in Ant-Man's laboratory.

A computer was already turned on, and the screen displayed a blue and purple head, whose gaze followed Connors' movements.

"Kang the Conqueror?"

Connors pulled over a chair with great interest and plopped down in front of the computer.

"According to the course of history, this world will be destroyed in your hands and saved by Victor von Doom."

Conqueror Connors looked at Connors and began speaking into the computer: "And after that, this world will be conquered by me."

Connors gave him a thumbs up.

"There is a device on your right, containing a bombshell that I personally crafted for you, powerful enough to destroy the world. Your task now is to detonate it and complete your mission."

"Kang the Conqueror said."

Upon hearing this, Connors looked to his right and indeed saw an inconspicuous cylindrical device.

However, Connors wasn't in a hurry to investigate this bombshell. He remained seated, looking at Connor the Conqueror: "I thought you were planning to continue hiding in the shadows with Doctor Doom to deal with me. I didn't expect you to show yourself so hastily?"

"Let me guess, could it be that the world has been taken over by the Skrulls, and you're planning to use me to wipe them all out in one fell swoop?"

The Skrulls are like cockroaches; when you see one in the open, countless others are already lurking in the shadows.

Conqueror Kang's face showed an expression of admiration, as if he was very satisfied that Connors had guessed the truth.

"I have a question: if I do as you say, how should I leave afterwards?" Connors asked with a humble expression.

"You cannot leave." Kang the Conqueror's admiration turned into mockery. "This universe has been locked down by me and Doctor Doom; no one can escape."

Connors reached into his pocket and found he had no sunflower seeds.

Ever since the Green of All Things was bestowed upon the two Poison Ivy little girls, Connors has been unable to casually pull out sunflower seeds anymore.

There were no sunflower seeds, but thankfully there were substitutes.

The cigarette, which he usually only smokes after finishing his business, flicked steadily from his fingertips and was caught in Connors' mouth. He continued, "Lately, I've been using my brain more than my strength, so I feel like I've become a lot smarter."

Conqueror Kang smiled.

"With the technology of Kang the Conqueror and the power of Doctor Doom, you cannot be unaware that the multiverse is currently colliding with each other."

Connors' first words made Connors' expression change.

"So this bombshell I have is ostensibly meant to destroy the world and start anew, but in reality, it's meant to truly destroy the world, right?"

"This world is about to collide with your world, and as the central point of the universe, you need to destroy it."

Looking at Conqueror Kang's expression, Connors knew he was right, and some of his previous doubts were also resolved: "I was wondering why Ant-Man wanted to build a telepathic device, but now it seems that you asked him to make this bomb, and he was trying to find you."

"Although he failed, I am not far from success."

Conqueror Kang stared intently at Connors: "Without the Mother Box, how can you find me?"

Connors laughed: "You even know about the Mother Box. It seems that one of my previous predictions has come true. You and Doctor Doom were indeed tracking me in reverse."

"But I guess you don't know enough about me. If I'm not mistaken, you tracked me down after I killed Reed, right?"

Conqueror Kang nodded, and this time it was his turn to look at Connors with interest.

"If you knew me better, you'd realize that your idea of ​​'locking me up' is a joke."

"You and Doctor Doom sealed off this universe."

"You just mentioned locks," right?

As soon as Connors finished speaking, the "Master of Lockpicking" used it without hesitation.

This time, the master lock-picking expert is no longer using other abilities as stepping stones, but is instead using the ability itself to do what it should do: "lock picking".

With a soft sound from the depths of the universe, the locked and unusable "mind transfer," "dimensional gate," and "Omega effect" of this world were restored to normal operation.

With these three abilities, Connors finally had no more worries.

Conqueror Kang's expression darkened slightly; he seemed to have discovered that the "lock" against Connors in this world had failed.

But he quickly regained his confident smile: "From the moment you saw this computer, I've been stalling for time."

"I need enough time, across the universe, to control that bomb and detonate it myself. Now the time has come."

i

A silent white light instantly filled Connors's vision. Connors was ruthless and acted without hesitation. The Earth crumbled in an instant.

At the critical moment, Connors used "telepathy" and "teleportation" to send Queen Medusa, Polaris Lorna, Alison Enchantress, Paige, Gorgon, Omega, Darwin, and others into the Mysterious House.

Just as Connors finished doing all this and was about to settle accounts with Connors the Conqueror, a man in a dark green cloak and wearing a metal mask appeared in the vast white light.

He spread his arms, seemingly piecing the shattered Earth back together from afar. A series of magical halos emanated from his body, while countless complex and sophisticated instruments were arranged in a row behind him.

Almost the instant the bomb exploded and the white light appeared, the Earth, which should have been shattered, was restored to its original state.

"You've ruined my plans, Kang."

Doctor Doom spoke to the empty space in front of him.

Possessing technology unimaginable to ordinary people, they can hear whatever they want to hear at any time, but this time, Conqueror Kang did not answer Doctor Doom.

After a few seconds, Conqueror Kang's voice trembled slightly before he finally spoke: "You, how did you do that?"

Doctor Doom frowned and remained silent. He heard another voice in Connors' audio.

"You hacked into that computer, so I had to find you by following the network cable."

"But this is the quantum realm!" Conqueror Kang's voice was filled with disbelief.

"Don't ask, the answer is Apokolips Technology. You're stalling for time, but so am I."

Connors' body was transformed into the same form as Cyborg using "polymer chain mimicry," and he was now standing in front of Conqueror Kang.
