Chapter 16: The Post-War Turmoil

One day later......

In outer space, Leo wears a black Superman uniform and enjoys the sun.

Feeling the power in his body that was close to saturation, he roared back to the surface of the earth, his textured black cloak fluttering behind him.

"Friday, report the data."

"Sir, your current speed is Mach Eleven...... Mach 12! ”

Leo grinned, and the rapid increase in strength made the young man feel happy as well.

In recent times, successive battles have made a qualitative leap in his strength.

He believes that one day, he will be invincible like the real Superman.

"Bang" a heroic handsome landing.

In the villa by the sea, there were people waiting early.

"Do you know how much trouble you've gotten into me?" Black Egg Fury was menacing as soon as he came up.

Leo was unceremonious:

"To be precise, these people should be in a lot of trouble for you!"

On the night of the battle with Abomination, the last few words of Abomination successfully poked at the weakness in Leo's heart.

In other words, Leo broke the defense.

There are innocent people who die in the aftermath of Leo's abhorrent battle, and Leo may have self-blame and remorse.

But he also knew that it was not his fault in essence, and that he would not give up on himself because of it.

However, if his family is involved because of his own affairs, then Leo will definitely go berserk.

The state of extreme anger caused the two energies intertwined in Leo's body to fluctuate as well.

Unknowingly, a force belonging to the new god Darkseid is in Leo's hands.

Even if he was suppressed, who knew that for so many years, Darkseid's power had no effect on Leo's body?

So at this moment, the omega rays naturally burst out of Leo's eyes!

"Is it over yet?"

Tony looked at the disgusting corpse and asked Leo.

It's a pity that his new nano suit hasn't been fully firepowered, and this monster has fallen!

Struggling to control the slightly rampage of power, Leo said:

"No, it's not over yet."

"Huh?"

Tony was a little confused.

I saw Leo soar into the sky and fly towards the seaside villa in California.

Looking at the messy neighborhood and the smoke-billowing wreckage of the plane, Tony grumbled:

"This little ghost, he doesn't know how to take care of the mess he left behind!"

In desperation, Tony had to work with the belated American police to do the work of a search and rescue team and a cleaner.

The other side.

The sound of explosions and the smoke of gunfire in the city told General Ross:

Now, I'm afraid things are getting bigger!

However, before he could gather his troops, a rumbling sound came from the sky.

It's a sonic boom set off by Leo when he flies!

At the moment of lightning, General Ross was grabbed by Leo, agitated his body, and flew into the cold night sky.

Two hands grabbed Ross by the collar.

"Tell me, what's going on tonight?"

Looking at this elderly man with somewhat thinning hair and gray temples, Leo was boundless anger in his heart.

And seeing Leo appear here at this moment, Rose immediately understood that hatred was probably more evil than lucky.

But fortunately, the monster seems to have lost control, and it is better to die, so as not to cause more trouble.

He was still thinking about these things!

"What's going on?"

General Ross pretended to be stupid.

"Something went wrong with the experiment, and the monster was out of our control."

The man in military uniform had a greed for power in his eyes and the cunning and shamelessness of politicians.

Make Leo gag!

Leo turned and took Rose in one hand so that he could see the ruined city not far away.

"Do you know how many innocent people have been killed because of your stupid actions?"

Hearing Leo's words, General Ross turned his head to look at him with disdain.

"On behalf of the military, I apologize to the people for tonight's accident."

"But, Leo Don, don't pretend to be a good person!"

"In the name of justice and kindness, you withdrew from cooperation with the military, do you know how much you have earned on this? Kick us out just for the fruits of our own exclusive Super Soldier project! Look at you now. ”

General Ross looked at Leo's body with fiery eyes.

"You must have made a more perfect and better super soldier potion than we wanted!"

He actually thought that Leo's ability could be brought by a mere super soldier potion!

"And then you try to destroy the Hulk and make yourself the only beneficiary!"

Leo was amused by his humor.

Some people, because of the darkness in their own hearts, think the same thing about others!

"It's a pity you didn't succeed, you are too arrogant! We also found the Hulk Serum, this time I admit it! ”

The reluctance in Rose's eyes let Leo know that if this scourge is left alone, I'm afraid something similar will happen again! At that point, it may not be an abomination, but some more powerful monster......

"Speaking of which, what about Torres? He was clearly there before, why can't I find him? ”

"That guy? Smashed into a pulp by a monster! Hell, I was going to obey orders before, but I got out of control again, damn it! ”

Leo knew very well that the loss of control of hatred was an inevitability. Bronski was a good soldier before he became an abomination, and for a while after he became an abomination, he would retain some humanity to a certain extent and obey orders.

But when he is blinded by strength and anger, then he is a monster who has lost his mind!

"Is that so? It's a shame......"

As a veteran, Rose sensed Leo's true killing intent almost instantly.

"What are you going to do? Do you want to go against the U.S. government? ”

Seeing that Leo was still looking at him with a sneering expression, Rose began to panic.

"I ...... Yes! ”

Without giving Rose another chance to speak, Leo let go of his hand.

A strong sense of weightlessness and fear of death caused Rose to let out a sky-piercing shout.

The soldiers, who had lost their command, were trying to regroup, when suddenly, a black shadow fell from the sky with unparalleled acceleration and fell into a puddle of meat sauce.

Leo couldn't help but shake his head as he looked at this bloody scene.

"What a pitiful, mighty General Ross was also brutally killed by that monster!"

"Luckily, I took care of the monster."

Boasting to himself, Leo leaned over again to take one of the soldiers.

"Where is your base?"

Leo found information about the project and a large pile of Hulk blood that Rose had copied from the military base, and he destroyed them all.

Finally, after a night of tossing, the farce ended.

The battle against Abomination and the use of Darkseid's energy made Leo feel like his abilities had improved even further.

So the next day, after sleeping until midnight, Leo immediately took a speed test.

And when he returns, he finds Fury.

This brings us to the opening dialogue.

"Rose died in a monster riot? Do you really think I'm going to believe this kind of nonsense? ”

Leo waved his hand, indicating that he was also very sad about the matter.

"At least five soldiers at the time witnessed you take Ross into the sky. And then, he fell down and became a corpse. ”

"At the time... It's so dark at night, who knows? ”

Leo wasn't worried about what Fury would do to him because of it.

After all, both sides know that even if evidence is presented to hand over Ross to the U.S. government, what can it be?

At best, Ross was ordered to step down from office, and then he could find a place to retire.

And this is a result that Leo absolutely cannot accept.

Nick Fury is not a pedantic person.

Looking at Leo's resolute attitude, Fury shook his head helplessly.

"By the way, don't you have that, super hearing? How could this happen. Can't you detect and stop it in advance? ”

Fury asked curiously after carefully reading the full information about the incident.

Leo also thought silently about this matter in his heart.

Although most of the blame lies with Ross and Torres.

But can you do better?

For example, after knowing about this at the beginning, he killed them directly, instead of ignoring them, and ended up being taken advantage of by a hundred times more perverted hatred than the self-healing ability in the movie, and killed so many innocent people under Leo's nose.

Another example is to have an extra heart, thinking that hatred may not be as weak as the movie universe shows, and be prepared for everything.

It seems that he is still too kind, Leo sighed.

Maybe this is young people, they are not stable at the beginning and they will make mistakes, but they will eventually become mature.

Another example is Leo's AI Friday, which almost never does so, despite its ability to steal data or monitor everyone.

Just like Tony Stark, Jarvis, who has an advanced artificial intelligence, is still shot cold by Stan.

Artificial intelligence is only developed to better serve life, not to use it as a tool to spy on the world.

And if Friday is allowed to actively monitor all the situations that may threaten Leo on its own, it is equivalent to giving Friday considerable autonomy, which is an insurmountable red line for artificial intelligence.

After all, there is a precedent for this in one of Superman's movies. In the Legion of Supermen, an anime movie, in order to protect the resurrected Superman, the artificial intelligence creates a mechanical Superman on its own, flying around the planet. Even though Leo didn't have a mind gem, he wasn't sure if something like this would happen to Friday.

And don't deify artificial intelligence too much. In the movie, Jarvis was once coded by S.H.I.E.L.D. to force Tony to accept a call from Agent Coulson; And Jarvis also does not have the ability to directly hack into S.H.I.E.L.D.'s database, but instead requires Tony to manually install widgets on S.H.I.E.L.D.'s system. (See Avengers One for details)

Seeing Leo's appearance, Fury stopped talking.

He knew that the young man would grow up slowly.

Gradually become that real Superman.
