Chapter 334
Chapter 334
People may be stupid and dull, but the mutation in the sky that is visible to everyone with naked eyes cannot be ignored, nor can it be covered up.
Confusion and curiosity in the face of the unknown quickly turned into doubt and panic.
I don't know who was the first to run away in a panic, but if there is the first, there will be a second, and if there is a second, there will be a hundredth, and after the hundredth, the first A thousand, the 1th... It was as if some play had started, and everyone moved.
Black crowds of people crowded the road, vehicles rushing to dodge the flow of people rushed into the shop, the car in front braked suddenly causing a series of rear-end collisions, and the chain of rear-end collisions at the intersection radiated outwards from the center of a cross, and finally blocked all exports.
Traffic in the entire city was paralyzed almost instantly.
But more deadly than the traffic jams are the panics, and the riots the panics cause.
The flow of people is still running around aimlessly.
Maybe some of them had a purpose when they first started running, thinking about going home or looking for their relatives, but in this messy torrent, it is too difficult to maintain a clear sense of direction Even maintaining one's own sense of direction is a dead end. Only following the direction of the majority can ensure one's safety to the greatest extent. Therefore, it won't be long before those who once had a clear purpose will have to become part of the mess.
Although the traffic was paralyzed, the way of information dissemination was still working normally. The abnormal situation in New York City was quickly discovered. The modified hover vehicle headed to the New York City transportation hub, trying to maintain order.
On the Stark Tower, Tony stared at the sky, frowning and put on the latest model of armor.
"I seem to see something in the crack. Jarvis," he said, "enlarges the image."
The golden-red battle armor flew into the sky.
A little boy who got lost with his family in the traffic flow stood helplessly in a small open space. Above his head, a small car hanging on the overpass was crumbling. He looked around in panic and didn't realize it.
A golden-red shadow hugged him and brushed past the falling car, until he was put in a safe place, the little boy realized what had happened belatedly, and when he raised his head, the person who rescued him had already turned his head He flew into the sky without returning.
"Peter!" A female voice torn apart by crying ran towards him desperately, "Peter! God, are you okay Peter? Are you injured!"
"I'm fine, I'm not hurt, Aunt Mei." The little boy hugged the woman's neck and looked back reluctantly, "It's Iron Man... It's Iron Man who saved me!"
On another street, Steve dexterously ran across the piled-up, indistinguishable from the tattered scene of a serial car accident. After arriving at the target location, he took a vertical leap, and then tore open the deformed car door with one hand, and recovered from the twisted and deformed car door. Survivors who had fallen into a coma after another were carried out of the car.
Medical personnel quickly rescued the wounded on the spot.
Hawkeye and Natasha were also in charge of an entire street. Natasha can still shuttle between the crowds with ease with her transformed strength and endurance, and use roadblocks to divert the crowd. Hawkeye is not so good. After dealing with such a situation, he could only bite the bullet and shoot arrows with high concentrations of anesthetic smoke at the crowd.
They communicated with each other through headsets, and with the cooperation of SHIELD agents, the busiest streets in New York were barely cleared up. Until then, Tony, who flew into the sky to investigate the strange cracks, finally Message sent back.
"Bad news," he said.
"Bad news," Batman said.
"What?" Superman asked.
He was still staring in the direction of New York City while asking Batman. The space rift that opened above New York's head would be invisible to most of the people, but of course it would not be a problem for Superman. The problem is New York City. It's not the only place where outliers are happening, the Met is no different.
Superman can feel that abnormal atmosphere, the feeling of being watched by eyes that are only malicious but not kind. His special senses allow him to perceive many things that humans cannot perceive.
"Everyone knows that Superman is strong, but what they know is conceptual strength, which is full of uncertain values such as 'Superman's attack power is approximately equal to how many nuclear bombs', 'How many gun attacks can Superman resist from the front', Naturally, such metaphors are fraught with fallacies."
Lex sat behind his desk, taking notes in his notebook leisurely.
"Actually, it is difficult for us to measure the strength of Superman by the number of units on the earth. According to the information I have learned so far, his strength is strong enough to push the earth out of the place where it is now with bare hands even when there is no sunlight. Running trajectory; under the condition of sufficient energy, he can bear the impact of a whole supernova explosion, and at the same time, under the protection of his biological force field, even that stupid cloak will not be damaged in the slightest—— It’s really superfluous.”
"Closer. Superman's strength and anomaly are all-encompassing. Aside from his remarkable strength, the most overlooked aspect is that his sensory system is different from human beings."
"An interesting fact that I have long since discovered is that when a perpetrator shoots a victim on the other side of the world, the victim's cry for help can summon Superman to arrive just before the bullet hits the victim. The question here is not whether Superman's speed It was that fast—his limit speed was much faster than that—but the victim's cries for help should have reached Superman's location seconds after Superman arrived."
"In other words, before the voice of the victim spread to Superman's location, he had already heard the voice of the victim in advance."
"It can only be explained that Superman has a special set of hearing, which cannot be analyzed by the existing human knowledge system."
"Experiments on General Zod confirmed this."
"Kryptonians seem to have their own way of understanding the world, not only through sight, smell, hearing, touch, but also an indescribable 'sixth sense' system. This system has amazing utility for coordinating their self-perception , and endow them with a community empathy far beyond that of human beings—from a purely scientific point of view, Kryptonians are born with an extremely strong sense of responsibility."
"General Zod places responsibility on Krypton, and Superman, no doubt, sees Earth and the life that inhabits it as his responsibility."
"Although I have come to the same conclusion before, at this moment, all my research on Kryptonians proves this: to destroy Superman, one must regard oneself as the enemy of the earth and mankind, and stand on the sidelines. From such a perspective, to think about how to exhaust the power of Superman."
After writing this, Lex stopped writing and looked up at the sky of the metropolis.
"There was a riot in Xavier Academy, and the potion Luthor injected made them lose their minds." Batman's voice sounded from behind the voice changer, low and cold, "I've made plans for this, but I can't guarantee it will work." Help them return to normal in a short period of time. Professor X's ability will make him suffer when he comforts mutants, and I must be there in person."
"You go to Xavier College." Superman said without thinking, "I stay in Metropolis."
Batman's figure quickly disappeared in front of him.
This old friend who never expresses his feelings quietly came to the metropolis as soon as he realized that the chaos was coming. Of course, Superman would not be angry because of his self-assertion. He was very happy that his friends could consider him. ——As for other issues, well, when the conflicts are not intense enough, it is better not to discuss them.
At this moment, Superman was attracted by a strange energy that had locked Superman in Metropolis from the very beginning.
His attention was momentarily distracted from New York City, and he looked up at the little floating dot in the sky, and he saw exactly what that dot was.
...how surprising.
It was a Kryptonian.
A Kryptonian who was destined to be his enemy.
General Zod.
