Chapter 175: Choice
The invasion came without warning, and no one on the entire planet, including the high-ranking bigwigs, the powerful organizations hiding underwater, and the people or forces that were in possession of the advanced technology of the century, had time to react. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
At this moment, the entire human society is like a giant screen movie, and someone has just pressed the pause button for it.
All the vehicles on the streets of the world have stopped, the power supply around the world has been cut off in an instant, all electronic and even mechanical equipment has stopped working in unison, mobile phones, computers and even walkie-talkies have stopped working. Unfortunately, today's human society is built on electronic devices and machinery, and now that all of this is paralyzed, there is no doubt that the world will fall into complete chaos.
Or rather, it should have been a complete mess.
But the invaders are not just as simple as hackers who hack the city's electricity and cut off the power supply roughly, their methods are even more ...... Be gentle. One by one, the space shuttles with failed instruments landed smoothly from the sky, and all of them were thrown to the nearest forced landing site. Several civilian planes were thrown into the harbor of New York, and from the top of the air, it looked like a toy thrown by a child on the ground without being collected.
Yes, just like toys, all technological creations on this planet are. And now the invaders are coming, and they are picking up the toys one by one and putting them in the toy box.
In just a few minutes, the earth was disarmed, like an infant child to be slaughtered.
No, it's not that there are no defenses, and there is one of the most tenacious lines of defense, a person, charging at the forefront in the dark universe.
After leaving Earth, Superman flew all the way to the center of the solar system, and the afterimage left by the cloak drew a bright red line in the dark universe. He marched forward without fear, and rushed to the battlefield where he would die.
Through the heavy meteorite group, the alien fleet finally came into view. Sure enough, just as Luthor said, the fleet of huge alien warships is like a swarm of swarms in the universe, silently starting the engines and moving towards the earth. Superman in their path is like a moth trying to hold off a pack of jackals.
But will he back down?
No, of course not.
He's Superman, and he's been the worst.
The tiny insects flapped their wings bravely and rushed straight at the thousands of horses. The red afterimage silently shot into the hull of a battleship, rushing out from the other side with blazing flames. Immediately following him with a hot eyesight, using the techniques the ghost had taught him to quickly blink and shoot, the hulls of several nearby warships burst red and exploded one after another, and the darkness was spectacular.
But this round of attacks also managed to attract the attention of the fleet, and all the ship targets were pointed at him. The special cannon opened from the front of the main battleship, and a fiery red core was hidden inside, as if the eyes were slowly opening, glaring at Superman with a death greeting.
Superman couldn't move for a moment, he opened his mouth in pain, but he couldn't scream, his body deflated like a balloon had been deflated, and the sun's rays leaked out of his eyes, nose, mouth, and even pores, like an oil-spilled sports car.
This is also a matter of course, if the ghost and his abilities work in exactly the same way, of course, the aliens who sent the ghost to Earth have already had a way to deal with him, and neither Superman nor the ghost can pose a threat to this armada.
No other way.
Superman shuddered with his shriveled hand and pulled out the syringe that Luthor had given him, the golden light flowing from the needle tube was so dazzling, like a spark of hope that would burn his life at the same time.
That's fine.
This is where Superman's story should end, the end of the legend.
He closed his eyes slightly, rolled up his sleeves, and his mind flashed through his short life. For the Kryptonian, who has been bathed in sunlight and has an unknown lifespan, this life may be really too short, but he is very satisfied, he has already gained too much on this blue planet.
But just as he rolled up his sleeves and was ready to do what he was supposed to do, someone interrupted him. It was like a blazing wind that flew from the direction of the earth, swayed past him, and snatched the syringe from his hand domineeringly.
It's a ghost.
Superman looked at him in shock, but his squeezed body could no longer move. The two of them looked at each other, and although it was impossible to convey meaning to each other with sound, it was only at this moment that the two people with different but extremely similar positions could read each other only through their eyes.
Without hesitation, the ghost lifted the small syringe and plunged it into his arm.
Sure enough, it should be said that it is worthy of being produced by Lex, and the product effect is indeed first-class. The tens of millions of tons of solar energy in the ghost's body boiled in an instant, and the golden energy lost control, even leaking out of his rock-like skin, igniting his body from head to toe. Superman was even more shocked, and he watched as the ghost's body seemed to double in size, and the whole person turned into a flaming fireball, struggling painfully in the solar energy that was on the verge of exploding.
He was supposed to be like this.
The ghost's face was contorted in agony, but he did his best to keep the last shred of his senses. He stretched out a palm towards Superman, and the invisible force struck Superman, and the majestic energy flew out along the path back to Earth at a faster speed than when he came, and the distance made the group of battleships turn into a small point of light in the universe in the blink of an eye in Superman's eyes.
The wraith fearlessly faced the fleet, its back as if magnified countless times.
The explosion came as promised, and all the solar energy stored in the ghost's body exploded in an instant. The invincible fleet was engulfed, and the terrifying impact was far beyond Luthor's conservative expectations, which was the shock that might destroy even the planets. Despite this distance, Superman was still affected, flying all the way back to Earth in a vacuum with near-zero resistance, breaking through the atmosphere and accelerating his fall.
The sunlight was recharging him, and his body was recovering little by little, but not fast enough. If he continues like this, he will fall to the ground first. If you don't do something about it......
At this moment, the green strap grabbed his body and extended to the top of his head and opened three oversized parachutes with a "snap".
Eric, who was in green light mode, caught up from below: "Need help? ”
"Thank you." Superman breathed a sigh of relief and put himself on his shoulder.
"What about the ghosts?" Eric asked, "I saw him rushing up." ”
Superman looked up at the blue sky and was silent for a long time.
"I was wrong about the ghosts." He spoke in a low voice, "Maybe he's been hiding under history, but ...... He's also a hero. ”
