Chapter 139

~7 min read 1,241 words

“Thump!”

Clark Kent, sitting obediently on the living room sofa, suddenly felt a pain in his little head. The familiar sensation instantly reminded him of the ‘weird uncle’ from last night.

Clark Kent covered his head with both hands, just about to look for the weird uncle who was bullying him, when he suddenly noticed an extra box of ice cream on the table.

“For you.”

The weird uncle’s voice rang out. Clark Kent reached out his little hand and excitedly grabbed the ice cream.

“Thank you, Unc—?? Where are you?”

The polite Clark Kent was just about to say thank you when he suddenly realized there was no one around him at all.

“Don’t call me uncle, call me grandpa.”

“You’re not grandpa, you’re just uncle.”

“……”

Forget it, uncle it is. Although grandpa is a higher generation, it really does feel a bit awkward.

“Eat slowly, I’m leaving.”

Su Quan returned directly home, never revealing himself from start to finish.

One box of ice cream, one flick to the head, the whole process took less than five minutes, and Super Breath was his.

“Swish—”

Su Quan opened a portal. The first thing to come into view through the portal was an endless ocean and the steep, jagged rocks on the shore.

Stepping through the portal and treading on the fairly soft sand, Su Quan quickly changed his outfit.

Bare-chested, wearing beach shorts.

He didn’t cancel the portal either; Helen and Vini Vini Liya could come right over when they returned.

Su Quan stood on the rocks by the shore, took a deep breath toward the calm sea, and then exhaled it with a roar.

In an instant, a hurricane blew from his mouth toward the sea surface.

In just a short moment, the originally calm sea surged with heaven-shaking waves, rolling upward.

Su Quan inhaled again, the air rapidly and intensely compressed in his lungs, and then he exhaled gently.

“Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle—” A shocking chill instantly froze the sea surface in front of Su Quan at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The waves that had just surged high were frozen into ice sculptures—or should one say, ice-sculpture-style sloped slides?

“Hiss—so, so cold.” Helen’s gasping voice came from behind Su Quan.

Su Quan turned his head to see Helen and Vini Vini Liya wearing swimsuits that were hard to describe in detail, hugging their arms and exhaling white frost, looking in astonishment at the sea surface frozen into ice.

Nearby, the sea was frozen into ice; in the distance, the sun shone brightly, and the sea rippled with blue waves.

Such a bizarre climate contrast was clearly not formed naturally.

Helen looked around, shivering, and asked curiously, “Where is this?”

“Amnesty Bay.”

“Amnesty Bay? Never heard of it. Where exactly is it?”

“Maine, on the East Coast.”

A single step away, one side was the remote Maine, the other was their home in Washington D.C. several states away; this feeling still made Helen and Vini Vini Liya feel deeply amazed.

“Boom!”

After testing the effects of Super Breath, Su Quan used Heat Vision to melt the ice.

After the temperature gradually returned to normal, Helen and Vini Vini Liya walked back and forth a few times. Very quickly, mats, fruit, and fine wine appeared on the originally desolate beach, and even beach umbrellas and lounge chairs appeared.

Helen and Vini Vini Liya frolicked in the water, while Su Quan lay gracefully and comfortably on the beach, sunbathing and drinking, feeling incredibly relaxed.

As the hometown of a superhero, this place, as the location of Aquaman’s guardian activities, was far less famous and prosperous than Metropolis, Gotham, Central City, or even Coast City.

Due to its geographical location, the population here was very small, and most people lived off the sea—for example, that lighthouse in the distance had a lighthouse keeper.

That’s right, the lighthouse keeper was none other than Thomas Curry, Aquaman’s father.

The lighthouse was neither too far nor too close to this spot. Under normal circumstances, even if Thomas Curry couldn’t see Su Quan and the others clearly, he would have noticed people here.

And with the giant waves and ice from just a moment ago, he should have come over to investigate long ago.

However, when Su Quan arrived, he used his psychic abilities to control him immediately. In his eyes, there was nothing here, and nothing had happened.

“Splash—” Under the sunlight, Vini Vini Liya looked exactly like a mermaid emerging from the sea.

“Are there really Atlanteans here?” Vini Vini Liya came to Su Quan’s side and asked curiously.

Su Quan smiled: “Of course.”

Vini Vini Liya nodded and asked again: “Are we going to Atlantis? I heard Atlantis is deep under the sea, and the ocean is their home turf. Should we notify Dai Anna or the Thor Legion?”

Su Quan was speechless: “Are you planning to invade Atlantis?”

Vini Vini Liya shook her head, looking at Su Quan with some surprise.

“We aren’t really here just to swim and sunbathe, are we?”

After all, Atlanteans, like their Amazons, had participated in the ancient war and also bore the mission of guarding the Mother Boxes.

He specifically mentioned the Atlanteans, so it was hard for Vini Vini Liya not to think he wanted to use the same method to recruit Atlantis!

“Why not?”

Su Quan smiled and shrugged: “Ocean, beach, sunshine, beauties—aren’t these more attractive than Atlantis?”

Vini Vini Liya curled her lip in disbelief. She hadn’t been by Su Quan’s side for a short time; although he hadn’t taken action in a long time and usually looked like an ordinary person with no ambition who only knew how to enjoy himself.

…………

However, the number of people in the Thor Legion on Themyscira was growing larger and larger.

Before traveling through time, the number of people in the Thor Legion had already reached two hundred and ten.

After traveling through time, they had returned to Themyscira several times. Decades passed in the blink of an eye, and now the Thor Legion had nearly five hundred official members.

There were over a hundred more who, because they temporarily lacked Stormbreakers, had already been recognized but could only serve as reserve forces!

If Su Quan filled in their Stormbreakers, the total number of the Thor Legion would reach a terrifying six hundred or more!

Six hundred Thors, six hundred Stormbreakers—with such terrifying strength, were they just going to stay on Themyscira and be kept as pets?

Seeing Vini Vini Liya’s look of total disbelief, Su Quan sat up with a smile: “Alright, I do intend to go to Atlantis to take a look, but there’s no need to mobilize the Thor Legion for now.”

Vini Vini Liya had an ‘I knew it’ expression and asked: “What do you need me to do?”

“What do you think?” Su Quan asked with a smile.

Vini Vini Liya looked at the sea, pondered for a moment, and said: “I think the Thor Legion and I should practice how to fight in the water.”

Su Quan shook his head, stood up, and walked toward the beach, saying with a smile as he walked: “You need to buy this place for me. It’s best to relocate everyone in Amnesty Bay so that when the Thor Legion comes, we don’t have to worry about being discovered or harming the innocent.”

After finishing, he dove headfirst into the sea.
