For the record, the following story is not set on the planet as we know it. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoThe Superman in it is not the Superman in the American comic setting. And the religion in it is not a religion on earth. Everything just looks similar.

"Look at the sky!What is that?" "That's a bird!" "No, that's an airplane!" "Wrong, that's Superman~~!!"

Superman......

There is such a man in this world, named Superman. And he is also known as the Son of Steel, the Son of Tomorrow. He can fly, and faster than a bullet. He was so powerful that he could even lift a tanker. His eyes can see through the steel plates. His body was invulnerable, and even his retina could block bullets. What's more, his mind is also superb, leaving humanity far behind.

That's right, leaving humanity far behind. Superman, he's not human. He's an alien visitor.

So, this became the reason why he will be attacked today.

This time, it's no longer a criminal or a supervillain who is trying to defeat him. It's a group of devout believers.

No, no, no, it's different from what you think. This group of cultists is not a cult, but an orthodox religion with a long history, with more than a billion followers on the planet.

Ah, there are people who think they are clever and misled by conspiracy theory novels to stand up. He said that these believers were jealous, and that now when humans are in danger, they have stopped praying to their gods and have turned to calling Superman.

No, not jealousy. Jealousy doesn't allow them to take such a big risk.

You know, the other party is Superman, a Superman who hasn't tasted defeat so far. With human strength, it is very difficult to deal with him. It is impossible for so many people to come and die because of jealousy.

So, why?

The real reason is actually very simple, if you want to explain. That is true. It's a matter of belief systems.

These believers have always thought that where they are is everything. It was God who created man. It is a man who steals the fruit of wisdom and falls into the mortal world. Later, it was God who sent His Son to redeem the Son.

Creation, Fall, and Redemption, among these three things, there is no alien share.

In the scriptures, there is no mention that the superhuman race is also a creation of God. What's more, Superman himself denied that he was a creation of God.

And more importantly, this alien is obviously superior to humans.

You know, in the minds of these believers, human beings are only a little smaller than God, and you must know that the birds of heaven, the beasts of the earth, and the fish of the sea are all available for human beings to take at will. How can a superman emerge now, clearly superior to humans?

There are also "original sin", "savior" issues, and so on. All have been challenged by extraterrestrial civilizations. This is the most important and non-negotiable thing. Although, non-believers cannot understand how significant those meanings are.

In fact, there is no need for the believers to come to crusade against Superman. Superman is an alien who looks like a human. This could have been a compromise. For it is said in the scriptures that God created mankind in His own image. Because Superman and Humans look the same, if Superman admits that he is a creature of God, then even those fanatical believers can work hand in hand with Superman. But Superman refused, refusing to admit that he was a creature of God.

As a result, the contradiction intensified. There is even a bishop who openly accuses that Superman is not an alien, but is incarnated by the devil, and his purpose is to lead people to turn away from their belief in God and fall into evil ways. And Superman's things to save people are all just means to buy people's hearts. "Look how cunning this demon is! He preys on the souls of men with the bait of the Superman Society's life-saving meeting, and trades the short life of the world for the eternal happiness of their souls." ”

Of course, there is debate as to whether Superman is a creation of the devil or simply a demonic incarnation. But there is already a group of cultists who plan to unite and get rid of Superman.

The preliminary preparation has been done sufficiently. The cultists even found out that reporter Clark was Superman.

With a "bang", more than a dozen lead plates (used to block Superman's vision, Superman can't see through the lead plates) suddenly put down, revealing more than a dozen "stoats" behind it.

"Stoat", the last infantry artillery of the twentieth century. Caliber 25 mm, TLB067 tracer armor-piercing shells can penetrate 30 mm thick steel plates.

At the current distance, in a few tenths of a second, the cannonball can fly this distance and hit Superman.

If it were humans, there would be no time to react.

But such a man is superhuman. He actually reacted in this short period of time, and put on a defensive posture to resist these shells.

Originally, these shells hit him just to tickle him. But these shells were already mixed with the kryptonite that the cultists could find. Although this kryptonite is not enough to make Superman lose his superpowers, it can at least greatly weaken Superman.

Hit, Superman bleeds!

In the web of fire woven by the cannonballs, the man looked surprised. And the cultists who saw all this through the telescope were excited: Superman, he is not invincible.

Immediately after, Superman moved, and in an instant his figure disappeared. Even the fire control system of the "Weasel" cannon, which can track the speed of the helicopter, cannot capture such a fast-moving object.

Faster than a blink of an eye. Superman had already appeared before the "Stoat" cannon, and with just a slight blow to him, the "Weasel" cannon turned into a ball of scrap metal.

But in the next moment, his figure was blocked in front of another "ferret".

Some people once wondered why, in the days when planes were flying in the sky and tanks were running on the ground, the Swiss Guard guarding the Pope was still armed with medieval halberds. And the current situation can give them the best explanation.

Six halberds emitting a faint golden light pierced Superman's body, blocking his progress for a while.

At the moment of stopping, through the high-tech equipment, the disciples who were watching the battle from a distance noticed the different expressions on the faces of both sides.

Superman's face was one of surprise, surprise at how someone was able to stop him (even though he didn't really push hard). The six Swiss were in pain. It is the pain of exerting all one's strength and being suppressed by great force.

There was only a momentary pause. In the next second, all six members of the Swiss Guard were sent flying by Superman. And before their bodies hit the ground, Superman had already dismantled another "ferret" back to its parts state.

On the other side, the Swiss soldier who was sent flying was spurting blood from his mouth and nose, and the cuirass he was wearing had a visible dent in it. Looking at that dent, the commander in the distance couldn't help but clench his fists, Superman's strength was stronger than he thought. You know, during the Second World War, even an 88-mm tank gun could not penetrate the cuirass of the Swiss Guards. But Superman, with his fists alone, did what an APBC shell fired from a 71-caliber 88-mm tank gun could not.

The sewer manhole cover on the ground was slammed open, just like the Four Masters of the Renaissance. Hordes of Swiss Guards scurried out of it and rushed to Superman.

Since the quality cannot be compared with it in any way, then let's make up for it with quantity! A small axe, chopping down one after another, can also cut down a large oak tree with the strongest wood

On the other hand, Superman, who was much weaker under the influence of kryptonite, found that even he wanted to attack the enemy through the blessed breastplate, which was a very physical drain, so he chose a more effective and direct way of fighting - screwing their heads off!

But his brutal attacks did not intimidate any Swiss guards. They still brandished the halberds in their hands, and attacked forward without forgetting their lives. Superman ignited a fire with his hot sight, but the Swiss were not hindered by the flames at all, and threw their lives at Superman in the flames. Standing where the Swiss soldiers did not want to be were the black-robed disciples. They prayed, using magic to disrupt or strike Superman. They tried a lot of magic tricks, but they all came back in vain. Some priests with advanced cultivation used advanced command techniques, but Superman didn't pay any attention to them at all. There are also people who have tried the Flame Strike technique, which is used directly for attacks. But this powerful magic that once burned countless witches to death in the witch hunting era was just a little burning sensation that didn't hurt or itch for Superman.

And as the Swiss soldiers fell, another figure joined the battle group. Unlike the Swiss soldiers, they do not use halberds. Instead, he holds a zither-shaped shield in his left hand and a sharp sword in his right hand. They were members of the Knights Hospitaller, the only remaining of the three major military orders, and many of them had come to join in the crusade. Like the Swiss soldiers, their weapons and armor glow with a faint golden glow. Even a superhuman attack can't easily destroy it. And their own strength is obviously much beyond the level of ordinary humans.

But that's not enough. Their armor and shields were still not effective at stopping Superman's attacks. Conversely, even if their weapons were good enough to slice through the armor of older tanks, it was still difficult to inflict enough trauma on the superman.

However, in the commander's plan, the task of the Swiss Guard, the Knights Hospitallers, and the cultists who directly attacked with divine magic was only to hold off Superman. There is another "person" responsible for the fatal blow.

As the prayers grew louder, the bells of the nearby temple rang out. Three tall figures flew over here.

The Otherworldly Divine Attendant stopped steadily in the air, and with his melodious voice, he unleashed a powerful divine spell. The Astral Apostle directly raised the heavy hammer in his hand and rushed to the front line. The Blazing Celestial Acolyte circled the battlefield, occasionally using his compound bow to shoot sharp arrows at Superman. It's just that the compound bow that could shoot any kind of killing arrow, but this time it couldn't find any kind of killing arrow to deal with this opponent.

Even Superman felt threatened when the church brought out the mass murder weapon. Under the influence of kryptonite, he was already weak and unwilling to use those superpowers, and he had no reservations at this moment. First, he exhaled a cold breath and attacked the enemy in front of him. Although the Astral Apostle itself has a high resistance and was not frozen into a lump of ice by this attack, he was also unable to move because he was frozen. At this moment, Superman rushed over, savagely tore his opponent's wings, and slammed his fist into the opponent's head.

Then, Superman left behind the Astral Apostle, who had been beaten like a raged puppet. With his eyes, he glared at the otherworldly god who had always cast spells at a distance. Superman's super-hot rays instantly knock the enemy flying, setting the feathers on his wings on fire.

The Blazing Sky Servant didn't say a word, but he was ready to use the Sky Dancing Greatsword to fight Superman to the death. But as he rushed forward, Superman jumped to his feet, and then quickly rose high. He flew. No need to spew flames from under your wings or under your feet. Superman's ability to fly comes from his superpower itself.

The Blazing Celestial Attendant flailed his massive wings in an attempt to catch up with Superman. But it didn't work at all, Superman's speed far surpassed him. Let him catch up with Superman, it is better to have a walk-behind tractor to chase a sports car. At least the speed difference between the two is smaller.

But the commander had long expected this. With the instructions given by the radio. Two OH-6 "Little Bird" helicopter gunships popped out from behind the building. As soon as it appeared, the 7.62mm 3-barreled Gatling gun launched a splash of water at Superman.

But the dense bullets are really as harmless as raindrops for Superman. And the OH-6 "Little Bird" was immediately switched to firing the "Hydra" 70-mm aviation rocket at Superman.

In the commander's intentions, the OH-6 "Birdie" was just a stop for Superman. But these two helicopter gunships did not even do that. Superman allowed the rockets to explode on him, then grabbed the pieces and threw them at the two helicopters. The flimsy glass cab of the OH-6 "Birdie" simply could not withstand such a blow. Directly led the pilot to the ground and fell.

Then, the unhindered Superman continues to fly high. In an instant, it was already in the sky above the city. Right now, he was ready to take a breath, and the vicious battle just now had hurt him a lot.

However, he was not given a chance to rest. With a loud roar, two F104 "Star" fighters appeared in his field of vision. And it quickly launched a specially modified missile specially designed to deal with him.

And Superman doesn't intend to fight the incoming missiles hard. Faced with this series of sharp attacks, he had already begun to be vigilant. With a string of super-maneuverable. The Sparrow missile, which has a maximum overload of only 30G, is difficult to cope with the super-maneuverable target of the Superman, and most of the Sparrow missiles launched miss the target and fly to the boundless blue sky.

However, there was also a shot that still found the target, and with the sound of the explosion, the high-energy continuous rod style exerted its power very well, knocking half of Superman's body into a bloody spark.

However, it is only a blood flower. Superman's actions remain unaffected. A missile that could have turned a fighter into scrap aluminum caused only a minor insignificant injury to him.

The two fighters flew resolutely towards Superman. This time, the driver was going to use the Vulcan cannon to make a final decision......

"Damn!" looked at the fighter jet that stalled and fell in the dogfight. The usually gentle and elegant commander couldn't help but curse, and then spat fiercely on the ground. Superman's strength is far beyond his imagination!

Then, suddenly, he noticed that a black dot in his field of vision had grown rapidly. Then, he saw clearly, it was Superman. It was Superman who came to him through super hearing.

"Do you want to kill me like that?" Superman said coldly, standing in front of the commander.

And the commander just glared at him, without saying a word, quietly waiting for the moment of martyrdom.

Just as Superman raised his hand, the little friars beside the commander suddenly spoke: "Are you really unwilling to convert?"

Superman just snorted at this.

"Imagine the journalist you love, then! You know, she would never marry a heretic! And her wedding must be in a church!"

"Really?" At this moment, Superman actually hesitated.

"If you don't believe her, you can ask her!" said the little friar, firmly.

......

A week later, the news of Superman's conversion sent shockwaves across the planet. In the cathedral he was baptized and became a believer. The Holy See has also organized a group of theologians to solve the problem of the incompatibility of the phenomenon of aliens with the existing belief system.

Have you finally settled down?

No!

"Great crisis, great crisis! Our faith is threatened again!"

"Princess Diana, known to the world as Wonder Woman, is a serious threat to our faith. ”

"It's different from Superman. She has her own beliefs. She claimed that she was created by the gods of Mount Olympus. It's clear that she's a heretic who worships false gods!"

"This time, we must get rid of her!

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――― other day, I flipped through this issue in the bookstore"Flying Fantasy World" read a novel called "The Mask". Then, as I walked down the road, I suddenly had an idea. What happens when Superman collides with religious beliefs?

So, I wrote this. I should say that my original idea was still good. But for a variety of reasons, the passion for creation faded. So it was written.

Note that this novel is pure fiction. The ones on our planet are not the same. It just looks similar. Superman is not the same as Superman in American comics, and Wonder Woman is not the same as Wonder Woman in American comics. As for that religious organization, it is not any religious organization on earth. As for the Swiss Guards, the Knights Hospitaller or something. It's just that the names are similar.

PS: The new "Angel of Tapestry" is really good. I know a lot of people don't like that style. But I think that kind of painting style with those plots and lines is the right match. If it is replaced by the original Japanese painting style, it will not be beautiful.

As usual, my body has not been updated, and there is still a chance to revise the plot. As long as I want to be able to ......
