I become light in American comics

Chapter 12 Stirring a hornet's nest



Underground, private laboratory.

With many years of study in the Kingdom of Light, Shen You built a simple laboratory in the basement with the limited resources he could buy. This is the main place for his research.

At this time, he was deleting and modifying a newly completed design drawing displayed on the projection screen, preparing to do the final test before running the simulation on the computer.

This is a project he started working on a month ago. He named it, "Mobile Ultraman".

Yes, it has the same name as the famous spin-off anime work of the Ultraman series, and it is similar.

To put it simply, it is to build an exoskeleton equipment similar to the Iron Man next door. A life-size armor with the appearance of Ultraman, driven by light technology, has strength and performance that far exceeds conventional earth technology, and can even be equipped with Specium weapons.

The design of the drawings and the programming of the built-in program are basically completed. Shen You ran the simulation twice, and immediately hesitated again on the issue of weapon materials.

DC Earth does have a lot of black technology. For example, the strength of the materials used by Batman and Lex Luthor to make armor must be incredible. However, DC does not know whether these black technologies are born at this stage, and Shen You currently has no way to gain access to them.

However, as soon as his mind moved, he quickly thought of a way that might be able to get access to top materials.

Right in the kitchen of my own cafe.

At this moment, the great wizard Shazam is competing with a new electric oven in the kitchen.

I don't know whether he disliked the thing being too slow or the heat was too difficult to control. The old wizard glanced around and saw that no one was paying attention. He silently recited a spell and secretly cast an acceleration spell on the oven.

The roasted chicken immediately accelerated under the influence of the spell and turned into a dark brown roasted chicken with cracked skin.

Realizing that he had overaccelerated, the wizard's pupils shrank, he hurriedly turned his palms over and cast another regression spell. I saw that the charred roast chicken seemed to have gone back in time, and it quickly changed back to what it was before it was charred.

A round, white-shelled egg?

Gan, I retreated too much.

At this moment, footsteps were suddenly heard outside the kitchen door, followed by the young boss's voice: "Senior Wizard?"

The old wizard's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly came to his senses. He silently recited the levitation spell, moved his fingertips, and the poor egg was immediately launched out of the open window.

So as soon as Shen You entered the door, he saw the old wizard in a daze in the middle of the kitchen.

"Uh, what are you doing?"

The old wizard coughed and stroked his beard calmly: "A wise wizard should take some time to think about life every day."

"Uh okay. I hope I didn't disturb your thoughts. I have a question."

"Well, tell me." The wizard stroked his beard and maintained his image as a master.

So Shen You briefly explained his purpose and thoughts.

The old wizard thought for a moment, then stroked his beard and said, "Materials? If you think about it, there may be a small amount of the ninth metal left in the temple."

Shen You perked up after hearing this.

Could the ninth metal be the legendary N metal?

That's the most top-notch material you can get in DC. It is described as a metal that has the "possibility to subvert all physical and magical rules" and has various extraordinary properties even without any processing.

For example, anti-gravity means that people wearing N metal can fly freely. And it can strengthen the user's strength, grant super self-healing ability, and have the best resistance to magic. The higher the purity, the stronger the power. Although it is very rare, the purest N metal can make people immortal and even revive the dead.

Then this thing is said to be rare, but it's not that rare. The Senagon Empire, the home of the DC superhero Hawkman, is basically everywhere, similar to how vibranium is in Wakanda in Marvel.

"Not much, just a little." The old wizard shook his head, "I got it by chance many years ago. Most of it has been used by me, and the remaining small amount has been lying around for thousands of years and has no use to me. You If you want it, just take it."

Shen You thanked him. Even if a god-level material like N metal has only a little effect, it is extraordinary, and there are very few people who are rich enough to make weapons out of pure N metal. Most of them are mixed with other materials.

It was at this moment that there was a commotion in the cafe outside.

"Don't be so cold."

A young gangster gathered around a table in a coffee shop, winking at a beautiful girl.

Three companions gathered around him, each with a malicious smile. They were dressed in casual clothes, most of them with holes, Hideyoshi's jeans and short-sleeved T-shirts with patterns or letters printed on them. They were dirty, giving off a decadent and wild temperament.

The girl obviously didn't want to cause trouble, so she just moved her position away from him.

"Don't be so cold, I just want to make friends."

"That's right, we're just chatting together." His companions cheered from the side.

"It's pointless to be shameless."

The young man slammed the table, and the silver skull hanging around his neck clattered.

The girl's face turned pale with fright, and she shrank aside: "I'm sorry, but I'm really busy."

"Really? Then let me help you make time."

The young man grunted and actually raised his fist as if to strike. The girl was so frightened that she held her head.

But when he swung it with all his strength, he failed to swing it down.

The young man turned his head in surprise, and immediately saw Shen You who had appeared beside him at an unknown moment. With a kind smile on his face, he reached out and grabbed his wrist.

"Sorry, guest, but violence is prohibited in our store."

The young man narrowed his eyes: "You are the store owner? You have nothing to do here. We are members of the Cross Gang. If you are sensible, please get out of my way and stay out of the way."

"Cross Gang?" Shen You thought hard.

Not impressed.

The main reason is that there are so many big and small gangs in Gotham that he can't even remember all the big gangs, let alone the little-known ones.

"We are operating around 19th Street. Today we are here to do errands for our boss, Elliot. That's right, the Elliot known as 'Crazy Elliot'!"

"Oh, that's it." Shen You suddenly realized.

I said so. No wonder there are still blind fools coming to my store to cause trouble these days. Their feelings come from other people's neighborhoods.

It is normal for outsiders to not understand the situation.

And his stunned expression seemed to be understood by the young man as having heard of his boss's reputation, and he couldn't help but become more arrogant.

"So now take your hands off me, apologize, and you can still open your shop here. I can pretend that nothing happened."

Bang bang bang bang.

A series of four muffled sounds.

The four gangsters were lying on their backs, nosebleeds flowed from their noses, and the pain of being beaten did not even come until they fell to the ground.

too fast.

The boy who was so arrogant a second ago didn't even understand the situation when he was lying on the cold floor.

Am I throwing a tantrum?

How?

Confused, he immediately lay on the ground and saw the young boss dragging a chair over and sitting on the edge.

"Now, about that, 'Crazy Elliot'?" Shen You smiled, "Elaborate."

A few gangsters trembled.

I vaguely began to realize that I might have stirred up a hornet's nest this time.
