I'm doing bidirectional science popularization in American comics

The generator converts electrical energy into magnetic energy, and under the precise control of the electrician, Gordon's pistol is pulled by the magnetic force and thrown aside.

After doing all this, the electrocutioner commented, "Tsk tsk tsk, this officer doesn't seem as smart as the young man behind you. If this officer makes any more rash moves, I'll be electrocuting you."

Chapter 40 Thank you Jarvis!

Gordon no longer cared what the other person said. With the gun taken away, neither he nor Depp could possibly be a match for the electrocutor with their fists alone.

The other party was a seasoned criminal who had been watching their movements closely, and the generator had also locked onto them.

In this situation, neither he nor Depp could get close at all; any attack they made would be preemptively attacked by the opponent using the power generation device.

Thinking of this, Gordon suddenly felt a sense of despair.

He turned to look at Depp, his eyes filled with apology.

"Sorry, bro, you wouldn't have needed to open the door if it weren't for me."

Depp didn't answer, but instead asked the man who executed the electric shock, "Mr. Electric Shock, do you know what electricity tastes like?"

To be honest, if Gordon hadn't been there, he could have easily taken down Electrocute using either his mutant powers or his armor and gauntlets.

But now that Gordon is right beside him, he's not going to use those abilities that could easily expose his identity.

Of course, this doesn't mean Depp is helpless.

When Depp asked the question, the electrician thought for a moment and said, "It should taste sour and slightly salty."

“No.” Depp slowly walked out from behind the counter and said, “I think it should be milk tea flavored.”

After saying that, he sucked all the milk tea in his hand into his mouth, and then spat it into the power generation device on the chest of the electrocutioner.

With a few sparks and wisps of smoke, the thing was clearly broken.

Depp looked at Gordon, poked the bewildered man being electrocuted with his thumb, and asked, "That's it?"

"..."

Gordon was somewhat helpless. The electrocutioner who roamed Gotham and gave Maroni and Falcone a headache.

She was actually won over by Depp with a cup of... no, a sip of milk tea?

Mr. Depp, is this reasonable?

That's absolutely outrageous!

However, upon closer reflection, Gordon recalled Depp's initial feat of defeating Red Hood by taking on three opponents, as well as Depp's bizarre behavior of running around the Gotham Police Department every day.

Then there's Victor Zasz, who was struck unconscious by lightning in front of the antique shop, and finally the electrocuted man with an awkward smile in front of him.

Even a high-class playboy like Bruce would frequently visit Depp's shabby antique shop.

Gordon suddenly realized that nothing about Depp was ever true!

The two, who had just resolved the crisis of the electrocutioner, hadn't even had a chance to catch their breath when a series of footsteps and countless dark figures came from the entrance of the antique shop.

"Looks like my shop is surrounded again," Depp said helplessly.

The shop door opened, and a strong, middle-aged man in a dark gray suit walked in.

Depp put on the Mirror of Information and learned the other person's name... [Saal Maroney].

The second-highest-ranking mob boss in Gotham after Falcone, and also a venomous snake coveting Falcone's position.

Maroni looked around and finally locked his gaze on the man being electrocuted, who was being held down on the table by Gordon.

“Looks like I’m not too late,” Maroni said.

Seeing this, Depp asked, "Mr. Maroney, I don't know what you mean."

Maroney ignored Depp's question; in his eyes, a small antique shop owner was not worthy of his answer.

Maroney pointed to the man being electrocuted and said to Gordon, "Detective Gordon, I think I need to say a few words to this guy."

“You can ask me anything at the Gotham Police Department. I’m on a case right now, so please move aside.” Gordon showed no respect to the mob boss.

To be honest, if it weren't for the lack of evidence at the moment, he would want to handcuff the guy in front of him and the electrocutioner together right now.

Maroney's face darkened upon hearing this; he hadn't expected Gordon to show him no respect whatsoever.

However, he still made way for Gordon. Even Maroney wouldn't easily do something like killing a policeman in public.

And even if he really wanted to kill a police officer, he wouldn't do it himself.

Maroni, with his small eyes, watched intently through the window as Gordon escorted the electrocuted man into the police car and left Naihe Island.

"That damn cop!" Maronny cursed angrily.

He pointed menacingly at Depp, who was sitting at the counter eating sunflower seeds, and Wellen, who was mopping the floor and drinking milk tea, before leaving the antique shop with his men.

That evening, Depp and Wellen emerged from the supermarket carrying large bags of groceries. Relieved after the arrest of the electrocution man, they were able to go out and buy food.

A cool breeze was blowing through the streets, which made the two of them feel very comfortable.

Depp loaded a dozen or so bags and Wayne into the back of the pickup truck, since Wayne's current size meant he could no longer fit properly into the vehicle.

Even in the trunk, Wellen had to hug his knees to barely squeeze himself in.

Just as Depp closed the trunk, seven or eight black cars sped past from behind and surrounded him.

Nearly forty armed men got out of the car and pointed their guns at Depp in the middle.

"Hey, hey, hey! Have you got the wrong people?" Depp said, looking at the dozens of people in front of him.

The leader had no intention of explaining anything to this doomed man; he shouted, "For the boss!"

Then, dozens of guns opened fire simultaneously, and countless bullets rained down on Depp.

death!

Depp smelled death for the first time!

His hair stood on end, and his brain involuntarily began to work overtime, even faster than when he attacked Ivan Vanko!

Jarvis-level brain processing speed was truly brought to its limit at this moment.

With his brain at the core, Depp's five senses were also greatly enhanced at this moment, and Depp felt as if the whole world had been paused.

He could clearly see the veins on the bark of distant leaves, and even the flow of sap beneath the bark.

He could see chemical residue on the shooter's skin and melanin deposits under the skin.

He also saw through the rear window of the van that Wellen's pupils were dilated with tension and fear.

Most importantly, he can clearly sense and model the location and direction of all the bullets coming from all around him in his mind, and calculate the trajectory of these bullets in the next moment.

From his perspective and in his senses, the bullets were now moving very slowly.

Depp could clearly sense that this state of being in control was fleeting, and he had to seize this moment, as it was his only chance to survive.

However, although his five senses have become exceptionally sharp, his body is no different from before. With bullets slowing down, his own body is obviously even slower.

In the parlance of the esports scene from my past life, it's like your hand speed can't keep up with your reaction speed; your brain can process the information, but your actions can't keep up.

Depp struggled to move his body, opening his mouth as if to shout, but no sound came out.

Suddenly, his vision turned into a white blur, and a fierce wind suddenly arose around him. This wind helped him move his body and also slightly affected the trajectory of the bullets around him.

With his mutant abilities and superhuman brain function, Depp managed to dodge the deadly bullets, sustaining only a few minor scratches.

After doing all this, Depp knelt on one knee, panting heavily.

But to others, it was just a fleeting moment. These dozens of people couldn't understand how Depp had dodged all the bullets.

But they never had a chance to ask again, because Wellen had already jumped out of the trunk.

"These guys actually tried to kill the boss right in front of me!"

At this moment, Wellen's heart was completely consumed by anger. His ancestral genes were boiling over and evolving once again. His scales quickly changed from light green to deep dark green, and his claws and teeth also became much thicker.

In just a few dozen seconds, the forty people were torn to shreds by the enraged Wellen.

Looking at the dismembered limbs scattered on the ground, Depp sent Tony a message:

"Tony, please thank Jarvis for me."

After saying that, his eyes rolled back and he fainted.

Chapter 41 Hatred Never Lingers (Part 1) [Requesting Monthly Tickets and Recommendations]

After tearing the assassins to shreds, the crimson in Wellen's eyes gradually faded. The next moment, the scales on his body began to evaporate and disappear, and his body shrank, revealing his true form.

After lifting Depp into the van, Wellen stepped on the gas and drove away from the bloody street.

Fortunately, because of the daytime chases and firefights between the gangsters and the freaks, most of the residents of Naihe Island stayed at home and did not dare to go out, so there was no one else on the streets.

Depp slowly woke up and found himself sitting in the passenger seat of a pickup truck.

In the driver's seat was Wayne, who looked exactly the same as when they first met. Seeing the change in Wayne, Depp asked, "How long have I been unconscious? What happened to you?"

While focused on driving, Wayne exclaimed with delight upon hearing Depp's voice:

"Boss, you're awake! You were probably unconscious for about fifteen minutes. As for my current appearance, it's probably a side effect of the power you unleashed earlier, but it's nothing serious. New scales have started to grow on my body; I can feel them."

New scales... Depp thought, actually Wellen would probably prefer this side effect to be permanent, that the scales on his body would never grow back.

That way he can live a normal life.

Depp guessed that the side effect was probably because Wellen had forcibly activated his ancestral genes under the circumstances just now, which caused him to unleash power that did not belong to his current stage, resulting in a backlash.

It looks somewhat like Gon from Hunter x Hunter, who was forced to grow physically.

But after some time, that kind of condition will probably become the norm for Wellen.

It has to be said that Wellen was incredibly strong just now. Depp recalled the scene when the green humanoid crocodile tore those guys apart, and the surroundings seemed like a blood-soaked inferno. He even found a strange kind of beauty in it.

Depp wondered if he had become abnormal because he had been in Gotham for too long.

However, he didn't have time to think about anything else now. Depp had to figure out who attacked him first, otherwise he would be unable to eat or sleep.

Wellen reached behind his back, pulled out a blood-stained bag, and tossed it to Depp, saying, "Boss, this is what I found on those guys."

"Well done, Wellen!"

After praising Wellen, Depp opened the bag and began to look through it.
