Chapter 176: Breaking Free
The people of Earth have no idea, no idea what kind of crisis the planet is just facing. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoBefore they knew it, the dazzling light was coming from outside the atmosphere, the aftermath of an unprecedented explosion in space.
Unaware people regard it as some kind of astronomical phenomenon that is rare in a century, but they don't know that an alien visitor who has lived on Earth for 75 years, hidden under history, has just given his life for this planet.
But in any case, it all came to an end. After Eric landed in front of Superman in front of the Fortress of Solitude, Superman still looked at the shining position in the sky, and the golden light pierced the atmosphere and passed down for a long time.
"You're a hero, ghost." Superman said to himself, "You have so much to teach me...... Maybe you were right, we could have been friends. ā
"But he didn't die in vain, did he?" Eric patted him on the shoulder.
"Ah, yes." Superhuman, "I'll keep fighting, even if it's for the ghosts who can't keep fighting." ā
Eric disarmed, and let out a long sigh of relief, his tense nerves finally relaxed. It was a long day, first with the Iron Legion riot, then the global nuclear crisis, then with the military armed with black technology, then with Superman against the Spirits, and finally with the alien army. Truth be told, Eric desperately needs to catch his breath right now and hurry home to ......
He froze as if he had been electrocuted.
Doesn't it seem like you've forgotten something ...... ?
Ten minutes later, inside the Fortress of Solitude.
"Ahaha, what's that...... Calm, impulsiveness is the devil ...... ā
Cold sweat broke out on Eric's forehead, and in front of him was Raven, who had just been released from the medical module. Her eyes were like those of a witch casting spells, and she was wrapped in rich black waves, and her hair danced violently like a hair dryer. The terrifying pressure burst from her, and the chaos magic almost seemed to dye the world a pure black color.
She was silent and didn't look expressionless, but even if she was sluggish, it was obvious that she wasn't in a good mood. She stepped closer and closer to Eric, literally like a looming Grim Reaper.
The corners of Eric's mouth twitched, and he closed his eyes and waited for the "trial".
Well, it's true that he's wrong, he really shouldn't have forcibly put Raven in a medical pod for anesthesia, even if he could give himself an excuse that "this is to protect her".
And unexpectedly, there was no AOE spell such as Thunder Nine Heavens that fell on his head as expected, on the contrary, the girl unexpectedly hugged him tightly.
"Huh!?" The change in style was a bit sudden, and Eric didn't react for a moment, and opened his eyes to confirm in disbelief that it was indeed Revane who hugged him tightly.
"I thought you just wanted ...... ā
She broke off at this point, but Eric understood, she must have thought that Eric had left her here to die alone, right?
Eric smiled and gently touched her head.
"Who do you think I am, don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who uses my life to achieve legends, I only do what I can, and only what I have the ability to do is my responsibility."
Eric also hugged her and said softly, "I promise, there will never be a next time, okay?" ā
Raven was quiet in his arms for about a second or two.
The next moment, the style of painting changed abruptly. She shoved him away, and instantly returned to her usual cold appearance: "There is one more thing...... Don't, again, touch, me, of, head. ā
Eric was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing.
"Okay, okay, it's awkward as always."
The uproar caused by the Ascension is generally over, but there will be a fallout. For example, the attitude of the global government towards Superman triggered by this incident, and the only remaining piece of the universal technology artifact Earth Stone, as well as the organizational "machines" that have been hidden for 75 years and the countless secrets they have hidden in history that can even be traced back to the atomic bombing of Nagasaki, have caused a lot of commotion around the world for a while.
The last remaining Earth Stone, Eric rightfully gave it to Superman to keep in the Fortress of Solitude. Despite S.H.I.E.L.D.'s reputation as "the safest place in the world", it was the stupidest thing he could think of at this time to store such a dangerous thing on a carrier-float, and Eric even felt that it was safer to hide under the bed in his bedroom than there. However, on the other hand, Superman's Fortress of Solitude is definitely much safer, at least with Earth technology, no one should be able to break in at will.
Similarly, Superman has finally decided to take center stage on the world stage. In the past, he had only done what he thought was right in his private name, but when he learned about the attitude of countries around the world towards him, he also realized that it was necessary to negotiate with governments, which also related his future path.
But he will handle it and find his place in this world because he is Superman.
After a thrilling adventure, it's time for Eric and Revan to go back to school and worry about homework and exams. But neither of them took this for granted, and being a high school student was probably the only bit of "normal" left in their crazy life, the most cherished part.
What Eric doesn't know is that his life isn't completely peaceful.
Somewhere unknown on Earth.
A group of people gathered in front of a huge screen, and the screen screen froze the figure of the sub-Morzo armored alpha in high definition, as if it had been cut out of a certain frame captured in battle.
"Are you sure?" A female voice rang out, "Is he in that school?" High schools in New York? ā
"Yes, probably sure." A man's voice rang out, respectfully, "The registered code name in the Aegis file is 'Amozo - Alpha', commonly known as 'Amozo', and it should also be a member of a superhero team similar to the Avengers. We don't know the real identity, but it's speculated that he was a student. He also made a move during the Manhattan King incident, but he was not included in the Avengers at the time, probably because of his age, which confirms our speculation. ā
"Oh ~ I really didn't expect it." The woman's voice became a little mischievous, "I'm getting more and more interested in him." ā
"Really, Miss?" Another man's voice rang out, cynical with a thick British accent, "You haven't really seen this kid yet, have you?" Are you sure it's him? ā
"That's it." She simply said decisively.
"Okay, then we'll have to do it as soon as possible." The English-accented man spoke again, "We don't have much time left. ā
