Chapter 283: The Pivotal Treasure Book
In the makeshift conference room of S.H.I.E.L.D. in the Metropolitan Barracks, everyone looked at the man in front of them as if they were meeting Superman for the first time.
Because they really didn't expect that the alien named General Zod was talking about the clansman who was actually Superman, a bug-level character in the American comic world, which made them happy and chilled at the same time.
Needless to say, the happy side is that they have finally found the person they want, and once the other party keeps his promise, all the disasters will naturally disappear. Maybe you can take a picture with the aliens or something, until the two sides give each other souvenirs.
The chilling thing is that if the other party doesn't keep their promises, then they will clash with these aliens. With a peep at the leopard, Superman's strength is so strong, so what kind of powerful power will his extraterrestrial clansmen have? No one has an answer. But at this time, they were already in their minds, and they were waiting for the others to face a murderous superhuman army, and that feeling was ...... It's scary to think about!
"Hehe, I really didn't expect that Mr. Superman is actually an alien," the one-eyed director laughed dryly, and took the lead in speaking: "Then congratulations here, Mr. Superman, for being able to find your own people in the vast universe." ”
The one-eyed director's words are not completely speechless, he really didn't expect that Superman's identity is really an alien.
You know, this is a dangerous American comic world, and mutants, supernatural beings, mutants, etc. are all over the world, so there was actually quite a lot of debate when studying the origin of such a bug-level character as Superman at that time. And Superman himself seems to have concerns in this regard, and has not spoken out to refute the rumors. As a result, this controversy has continued to the present day, and has even fed quite a few experts, academics, and media people.
But now these people can be unemployed, because Superman's identity has been decided, and the other party personally admits that he is an alien.
"No need to congratulate, because it's not a nice thing to do," Superman said lightly.
"Why?" Everyone was slightly stunned when they heard this, and a few of them had a bad premonition.
Superman glanced at the people sitting in the venue expressionlessly and said lightly: "Do you really think that they have traveled thousands of miles across the galaxy and come to this planet just to find someone?" ”
"Isn't it?" The one-eyed director said astringently.
"I hope so, but I'm sorry, their real purpose should be the Nexus Treasure," Superman said with a serious face.
"Nexus Treasure?" Just by hearing the name, he knew that it must be a good thing, so the one-eyed director who saw the hunting heart was happy and hurriedly asked, "What is that?" ”
Superman hesitated for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "It is a sacred relic of the Kryptonians, and one of its functions, and it should be the most needed function of General Zod, is that it retains the genes of all the Kryptonians so far. ”
"To put it simply, this so-called treasure book of you Kryptonians should be counted as a gene pool of your planet, right?" The one-eyed director's eyes flashed and asked quietly.
Superman pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Yes, it does have this function. ”
"But it doesn't seem to have anything to do with what we're talking about, and no matter how important the so-called Central Treasure Book is, it's for you Kryptonians," Captain Marvel interjected, "and we're talking about why you don't just confront your people, and instead waste your time with us here." ”
"That's right," Magneto said in a somewhat weird voice, "You shouldn't be reluctant to hand over your so-called Central Treasure Book, Superman." ”
Magneto will never forget the day he was pressed to the ground by Superman and rubbed! In the case that he can't beat the other party, making some trouble for the other party is the only thing he can do now.
"Yes, Superman, you shouldn't be reluctant to hand over your holy relics," due to Superman's nosy personality, several of the supervillains present were pressed to the ground and rubbed by him. Seeing this kind of opportunity to fall into the well, of course they would not let it go, so they all began to coax one by one.
Although these supervillains here do have the suspicion of communiqué personal vendettas, it has to be said that they do get to the point, because even the superheroes who were invited couldn't help but look at Superman suspiciously.
"Superman, what about your answer?" At this time, even the one-eyed director had to make a statement, waiting for Superman's answer with a serious face.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Anthony, who was watching the excitement on the side, somehow suddenly wanted to laugh, because this scene was so funny. A group of ants actually hoped that an elephant would give them an answer, whether they thought Superman couldn't hold the knife anymore, or if they were floating. You must know that Superman is not Batman or others, he does not have a creed of not killing. Forced him, he dared to hammer people to pieces in minutes!
Maybe it's because of his own losses, or maybe it's because he still has to live on Earth in the future and doesn't want to offend too many people, so Superman didn't attack their cynicism and questioning with a cryptic tone, but gave his answer directly.
After Superman's answer, everyone present understood why Superman would rather fight than return the Central Treasure Book to General Zod.
"You mean, if we return your Pivotal Treasure Book directly to the one named General Zod, he will probably take over the Earth or a piece of land and then take root, right?" The one-eyed director said in a solemn voice.
"That's right," Superman nodded, "The living conditions of Kryptonians are very harsh, and the conditions of the living planet must meet the relevant standards. Although we have the relevant terraforming technology, the modified planet also has a prerequisite foundation.
And the planet with this kind of foundation is quite rare in the entire universe. Most of these rather rare planets are still Lordlands.
The rest are either in the buffer zone of war with some big powers or in dangerous places, or like the earth, they are well hidden and difficult for others to discover. It is precisely because of this that we Kryptonian people disappeared into the universe after the collapse of our homeland. ”
"Is Earth really suitable for you Kryptonians?" Although he already knew the answer, the one-eyed director still wanted to confirm again.
Superman chuckled, then pointed at himself and said, "You don't know that I've been living on Earth for years. ”
"So, war is inevitable!" Captain Marvel said solemnly.
"That's right," Superman said in a deep voice, "That's why I didn't come forward, one is not protected by any big forces, and a home that is very suitable for transformation, it's you, what will you choose?" ”
In fact, the video materials left to him by Superman's father once said that the earth is protected by a very famous force in the universe. But Superman has been living on this planet for so many years and has never seen this force, plus General Zod, they have been there for so long, and no one has stopped them. Therefore, superhuman beings will conclude that there is no protective force on Earth at all, or that the force that once protected the Earth has suffered and is unable to shelter the world they previously sheltered.
"If that's the case, let's start formalizing the relevant plans, we're running out of time," the One-Eyed Director hesitated for a moment, but turned to Superhumanity, "But Superman, I still hope you can meet with your people and see if there is room for détente between the two sides?" After all, no one wants their enemies to be a bunch of supermen.
"I can come forward," Superman gave him a deep look at the One-Eyed Director, then glanced at the others, and after a moment's silence, he said with a serious face, "But don't get your hopes up too much, and prepare for the worst." According to the information my father left me, General Zod was a war maniac! What he likes most is to get everything he wants through war! ”
"Understood," the one-eyed director said with a serious face: "If he really wants war, we won't be afraid, because behind us is our homeland, and we have no way to retreat, we can only fight to the death!" ”
