Chapter 369: Transmuting Stone into Gold and Recruiting Katana and Copperhead (Third update, please subscribe!)

Su Quan's thoughts stirred, and blue flame energy identical to Firehawk's instantly erupted around his body.

A few seconds later, the blue flame energy vanished, and Su Quan curled his lips in slight disappointment.

A false alarm!

Firehawk's ability is indeed manipulating atoms, but there are levels to the same ability; although Firehawk can manipulate atoms, she cannot reach the level of Doctor Manhattan at all.

Let alone Doctor Manhattan, she cannot even compare to Firestorm.

Or to put it another way, Firehawk is equivalent to Firestorm's assistant, just like Robin is to Batman, Red Arrow to Green Arrow, or Flash to Reverse-Flash—the abilities are the same, yet inferior to the other.

Does something seem wrong here?

Eh, it doesn't matter; the result is the same anyway, no need to worry about those details.

Actually, thinking about it, this is quite reasonable.

If Firehawk's ability could reach the level of Doctor Manhattan, the U. . government and Amanda Waller wouldn't dare lock her in prison even if they had a hundred times the courage.

Given Doctor Manhattan's display of power, it is no exaggeration to call him the closest thing to what people perceive as God and omniscient and omnipotent!

Simply put, what can Firehawk's ability do?

Flight.

Blue flame energy.

The ability to rearrange the atomic and subatomic structures of inorganic matter to a certain extent, creating objects of equal mass but different atomic characteristics by rearranging subatomic particles.

For example, turning a certain amount of lead into gold of equal mass!

Under normal circumstances, she cannot transform organic matter, but she can change herself at will as needed, such as regenerating damaged parts of her body and enhancing the function of her immune system.

She can change her own physical form and survive in places without food, air, or water!

All in all, this can be considered an ability that is better than some but worse than others!

Currently, apart from being able to 'transmute stone into gold,' the rest are relatively intense for Su Quan, but after stacking the same abilities, especially after Doctor Manhattan's abilities, it becomes quite strong.

Hmm, at least stronger than Doctor Manhattan!

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, Firehawk broke out of the ice.

"Who are you?" Firehawk questioned vigilantly.

"Slurp—" Su Quan sipped his coffee, and the coffee cup in his hand quietly changed under Firehawk's wary gaze.

When he set it down from his lips, it had stunningly turned into pure gold!

Su Quan examined it for a few moments, then casually handed the pure gold coffee cup to June Moone: "You make coffee for me, I give you the cup I used to drink coffee; not a bad deal, right?"

June Moone's small mouth opened in surprise, and she nodded repeatedly.

Su Quan smiled and reached out his hand toward Firehawk: "My name is Su Quan. You can choose to come with me and experience a brand-new life, or you can stay in this tiny cell and continue to enjoy a life of imprisonment in darkness!"

Firehawk subconsciously looked at Poison Ivy and June Moone, then slowly took Su Quan's hand.

Su Quan smiled and said pleasantly: "Amanda Waller is too slow; she hasn't even returned yet. Let's go, next target: Nightshade!"

"Nightshade—" June Moone started to speak but hesitated. Seeing Su Quan look over, she hurriedly said: "I know where Nightshade is. She, she is practically my teacher."

"Tell me, what's the story."

June Moone nodded, leading the way while saying: "Because the state of the Enchantress and me was always unstable, Amanda Waller had Nightshade train me, also to monitor and control the Enchantress."

"Nightshade's abilities are very powerful. If she hadn't trained me, I might have been completely controlled by the Enchantress long ago."

June Moone was very familiar with Nightshade and shared quite a bit about her, such as her identity as the Princess of the Shadow Realm, and how they were attacked by nightmares in the Shadow Realm, her younger brother was captured by nightmares, and her mother was injured while bringing her back to Earth, but because the injuries were too severe, her mother passed away.

Before her mother died, Nightshade swore she would return to the Shadow Realm to save her brother. Afterward, she returned to the Shadow Realm several times, but unfortunately, besides barrenness and terror, she found no trace of her brother.

The reason she stayed at Belle Reve Penitentiary to work for Amanda Waller was partly because she was originally a super-agent working for the government, and partly because she wanted to use the power of Amanda Waller and the Suicide Squad, hoping that one day she could find her brother.

"Hey, wait a minute, can you let me out? I want to defect to you!"

Just as they were passing through the prison corridor, a face with a fawning smile squeezed against the small window of a cell.

Su Quan glanced at it and stopped.

Maze?

This face was exactly the same as Lucifer's subordinate Maze in 【Lucifer】!

Of course, she definitely wouldn't be Maze.

The universe where Lucifer resides is Earth-666.

Even if the multiverse shared one Hell, Maze, as the executioner of Hell and the only demon to follow Lucifer to the human world, could not possibly be locked in such an ordinary cell.

It should just be that they look the same, or they are counterparts from different universes, also known as doppelgängers!

Su Quan asked her with interest: "Who are you?"

"Larissa Diaz, they all call me Copperhead." Seeing hope, Copperhead hurriedly stated her identity.

A female version of Copperhead?

Su Quan smiled and asked: "You want to defect to me? What can you do?"

Copperhead said earnestly: "I am a professional assassin; I can help you kill anyone who offends you!"

………………

"You are too weak. You don't make the cut to kill for me." Su Quan shook his head.

Copperhead became a bit anxious and said hesitantly: "I, my body!"

"You could be the first person to possess it!"

Strength and beauty—these were the only two things she could offer. If the strength wasn't enough, then she had to rely on—

Well, that doesn't seem to be enough either!

Although Su Quan didn't speak, the faint smile at the corner of his mouth and the playfulness in his eyes were enough to show that he didn't think much of her at all.

But clearly, he had shown a look of surprise and interest before; otherwise, he wouldn't have stopped.

Copperhead was unwilling to give up just like that. She had been sentenced to life imprisonment; if she couldn't seize this opportunity, who knows when she would ever have a chance to leave this place again.

"As long as you let me out, I can do anything for you! Anything at all!"

"Can you drive?"

"Yes, I can!" Copperhead nodded hurriedly.

Su Quan reached out and grabbed, and the cell door instantly flew out with a bang, crashing onto the ground in the distance.

Copperhead blinked, glanced at Su Quan who had already turned and walked away, and hurriedly turned to follow.

"Swish!"

Black light flickered, and two figures appeared out of thin air in front of Su Quan and the others.

One of them was none other than Amanda Waller, who looked quite disheveled.
