Chapter 189: Brainac: First Contact!

Ian was alone in the face of the meteor swarm flying towards him, and went straight into a mechanical state.

He was suspended in the universe, his dragon robe protecting his body from harm, and meteorites of all sizes crashed into it, splashing red ripples.

"Happy boomerang!"

Ian threw a boomerang, and the speed increased, turning into a little golden light and shuttling through the meteorite, shattering the human-sized meteorites into the atmosphere and burning into ashes.

The boomerang drew a large circle, clearing a relatively clean vacuum around Ian, and all the meteorites were shattered into fist-sized stones, similar to bacteria in the universe.

As for the Excalibur, it has been completely destroyed, leaving countless fragments floating in the vacuum.

"Ian, you've smashed all the meteorites, what are you doing here?"

It didn't take long for Green Lantern to send the four men on the Excalibur back to Earth and fly back again.

He didn't see Ian return to Earth, but he returned to space and saw him weaving through the wreckage.

"I'm making sure there's nothing strange about what flew to Earth with the meteorite."

Ian first thought of Apocalypse, but Black Zero orbits the Earth, and one of its most important jobs is to monitor the signals on Earth.

The fact that the gray wolf and the Kryptonian science officer did not find any sudden strong signals proved that the mother box on Earth had not been activated, and the Apocalypse Star did not know the location of the Earth yet.

Hal raised his right hand, and the light ring emitted light, scanning the surroundings: "These meteorites have been broken into fist-sized pieces by you, and there is no possibility that there are any monsters hidden in them." The Green Lantern Ring didn't find anything like any microorganisms. ”

He frowned and said, "You know, the Green Lantern Legion has the most complete database in the universe, and it is impossible for anything to escape the scanning of the Lantern Ring. ”

Ian looked at his stinky fart and smiled, "Really? Why didn't the all-knowing Green Lantern Ring store the history of the Kryptonians? ”

"Ahem!"

Hal laughed awkwardly, "Maybe there is a little glitch in the lamp ring, I have already reported it to O'Axing, and the guardians will give me an answer soon." ”

"Or never." Ian thought to himself.

Those little blue people don't have two words on them, they will never mention their failures, Krypton is like this, and the Apocalypse is the same.

Perhaps, they will also slander Superman, the last Kryptonian, as a monster, and ask Hal to capture Clark back to O'A.

"Actually, I think I should go to the place where the meteorite flew out to have a look, and my intuition tells me that there will be a big harvest there."

Hal wanted to save face, and he quickly shifted the topic to business.

Ian and he were originally going to Mars today to investigate the Black Zero's escape from the Phantom Zone, but they happened to be in distress when they were returning to Earth.

Ian asked the men on duty on the Black Zero to find out the path of the meteorite's flight and fly towards the source.

"You know what?"

Flying through the vast universe without any sound, Hal felt a little bored, so he and Ian started a small talk: "I sent the members of the Excalibur to the ground and met Lexor Luthor. That guy didn't know what was wrong, I saved his man, and he even put on a stinky face at me. ”

Ian gloated, "Luthor discriminates against transhumans, feeling that their existence hinders human growth. This time his members were in distress, but we rescued them, and of course there was no shame. ”

Hal said disapprehantly, "I don't think so, just take today's accident as an example, if it weren't for us, the members of the Excalibur would have to be here." ”

"I'm afraid in Luthor's heart, even if the Excalibur is all dead, it shouldn't be saved by us."

"How could Luthor be so dismissive of human life?"

"Maybe, I'm just guessing."

Ian didn't want to speak ill of people behind his back, even though Luthor was so selfish.

"We're here!"

They crossed the moon for about a few thousand kilometers and stopped in a deep space, directly exposed to solar radiation, but there was nothing here.

There are no massive nebulae in the solar system, and there is nothing between the moon and other planets except the asteroid belt.

Ian found that the place they were in was a little too clean, there were no physical entities, and even the energy was too smooth.

He asked, "Howl, do you notice anything wrong here?" ”

Hal retracted the light ring: "The trajectory of the energy flow here is too gentle, not at all like an asteroid swarm flying by. But you found out? ”

"With your eyes, of course!" Ian tapped his temple, making a metallic sound.

Hal touched his chin and looked at it for a while, then said strangely, "I feel that you and Clarke's abilities are becoming more and more similar!" ”

"But the source is completely different." Ian emphasized this point.

He had recently studied the Mechanical Stone and found that it could not only animate itself, but also provide a more special and widespread energy.

He estimated that this was the "courage" represented by the Happy Superman Mechanical Stone.

Ian even felt that when he completely fused with the mechanical stone, he would be able to bring a new power to the universe.

In the universe where the star planet is located, one of the sources of so many superhuman powers is the five mechanical stones.

"It's all the same!" Hal shrugged his shoulders and didn't get to the bottom of it: "I'm not that old bat, I like to spy on other people's secrets. As long as you're on our side. ”

"Why don't you complain about Batman in front of him?"

Ian is speechless at the child's behavior of speaking ill of people behind Hal's back.

"I don't want to be stared at by him anymore."

Hal shuddered, and began to scan the energy around him.

"It's like the energy here has been broken up and rearranged in some way."

He said confidently: "After the results of the Lantern Ring analysis are out, we will be able to know who is behind this attack!" ”

Ian knew that although the Ring of Light had extinguished the fire on the Kryptonians, the Green Lantern Legion was still one of the largest organizations in the universe, and there was little to no one else when it came to gathering knowledge.

So he waited for Hal to show off his victory.

But as the minutes passed, Hal didn't say a word, and even though the green light energy covered his face, Ian felt the embarrassment of the Green Lantern.

He asked helplessly, "Hal, what's wrong with you?" ”

Hal didn't answer.

"It can't be that your lamp ring is invalid again, is it?"

"It shouldn't be!"

Hal's voice instantly raised a few degrees, and he shouted, "I haven't encountered such a situation once when I was on a mission on another planet. Could it be that the earth's feng shui is bad? ”

"You are an American, believe in Mao's feng shui!"

Ian slapped his forehead and his gaze swept around, finding that all the energy had come to a standstill.

He said to Hal, who had a broken Dao heart, "Even if this is not recorded in the Lantern Ring's database, the basic functions will not be damaged. ”

"You're here to help me find something."

"That's right!" The big-hearted Hal recovered instantly, and nodded with the idea of proving himself: "You say, what should I find?" ”

Ian touched his chin and said, "No matter what identity the main messenger behind the scenes is, or what technology he uses, if he wants to achieve his goals here, he must do it through some medium.

Neither an asteroid swarm, nor a too gentle gradual sinking into energy, is unlikely to fall into this state on its own. ”

"I see!"

Hal wasn't stupid either, Ian made it so clear that he flew out and scanned the entire area bit by bit with the light ring.

This time, Hal didn't fail again, and he flew to Ian with a small ball of green light energy change: "This is it." It is a molecular-level machine that emits simulated energy fluctuations to camouflage itself. ”

"It's strange, the molecular level is not special for the lamp ring, how can you not find it?"

It's all the fault of the little blue man!

Ian said that there would be no mistake in throwing the Green Lantern Corps at the little blue man if he had a pot.

He scolded the little blue man a few times, and then took the ball of light that Hal had made.

The originally quiet machine fell into Ian's hands and instantly became active, stretching out tentacles one after another, wanting to break through the green light energy and contact Ian.

Hal looked at the machine that was constantly changing the way of breakthrough, frowned, and said, "I think this thing should still be given to Big Big Wolf and Batman, the two of them are the best at technology." ”

"I'm worried that this thing will hack into our system as soon as it enters Black Zero." Ian kept thinking about the mechanical villains.

The first one to pop up was Brainiac, a super artificial intelligence with twelve intelligences, which was much more awesome than Vision Ultron.

It is rumored that when Krypton was destroyed, there was also this artificial intelligence.

Now that he is eyeing the earth, Ian is in great trouble, and at the current level of the earth, there is no room for resistance.

Once the war starts, except for the superhumans, the other humans will only be captured and used as figures.

Although Ian had a chance to ask Lucifer for help, he didn't want to waste it.

After thinking for a while, he said to Hal: Hal, I want to touch this machine and find out who is behind it. You come and see me, and if I behave in any way, I'm going to take this thing down. ”

Ian clicked his chest, and the mechanical body opened layer by layer, revealing the red mechanical stone.

Hal didn't expect him to make such a decision, and advised, "Ian, it's too risky. Maybe this machine was deliberately left behind by the other party, waiting for us to take the bait. ”

"Even if you want to find out the identity of the other party, you should wait for someone else to come."

"There's no need for that!" Ian said decisively: "Except for Black Zero, there is no machine on Earth more sophisticated than me now, and if I fail, the other machines are even less likely to succeed." ”

"And I'm not the only one. As long as you remember the precautions I gave you, there will be no other problems. ”

After saying that, Ian directly crushed the green light energy, and the molecular-level machine fell into the palm of his hand, and then he felt a huge amount of data rushing towards him.

Ian is seeing a machine or a corner of the data world for the first time, and neither he nor Superman is a purely mechanical being.

In short, when this data poured in, Ian did not resist and allowed his soul to become data, a string of data based on the words of the sheep and wolves.

In an instant, Ian traveled through the vast sea of stars in some special way and came to another place.

……

Ian's consciousness took the form of data, and he saw a huge skeletal spaceship, suspended in the sea of stars, surrounded by shattered spaceships.

Perhaps because of his mechanical state of life, he felt the pathos of death from those ships, as well as the sadness and anger of other life.

"Welcome, welcome! It's been a long time since I've had another visitor. ”

Ian heard a voice, and he turned to see a green-skinned alien with a light bulb above his head clapping in welcome.

"Those ships are left behind by the brave men who came to crusade against me, the demon king. It's a pity that those people were still quite interesting when they were alive. ”

Ian ignored his confession and asked to himself, "Are you Brignac?" ”

Sitting on his throne, Brainiac dissatisfied, "I knew that a mechanical life born on a backward planet must have some kind of flaw, such as that he would not respect his predecessors. ”

"Unlike you, I am satisfied with my duty to protect the humans who created me, rather than killing them all."

Ian failed to correct Brainiac's misunderstanding, causing him to continue to feel like a mechanical lifeform and exposing his roots.

Brainiac was originally an artificial intelligence created by Crewe scientists in order to overthrow tyrants.

In the beginning, he faithfully fulfilled his duty, overthrowing the tyrant and protecting the Crewes.

But when Brainiac absorbed the tyrant's technological legacy, he began to evolve himself, not only his own technology, but also his own greed, jealousy, and hatred.

Subsequently, Brainiac turned the entire planet of Kru into his own collection.

"Smack, smack, smack!"

Brainiac applauded, and seeing that Ian didn't react, he said, "Don't you like my compliments?" I rarely compliment people, but you're really nice. ”

Arrogant, think yourself on top!

Ian gave the Brainiac an assessment in his heart.

"Actually, I didn't have any interest in Earth at first, I released Black Zero from the Phantom Zone for the Kryptonite."

"But seeing you, I'm interested in the Earth that can create such a special mechanical life."

Ian commented again: Cruel, deliberately saying this, just to provoke my pain and self-blame!

"So, stay here and watch how I turn the Earth you swore to protect into a toy!"

tyrannical and never allow anyone to disobey his orders!

Ian felt a powerful stream of data rushing towards him, trying to not only imprison his consciousness, but also cross the sea of stars to control his body.

Brainiac makes a virtual grab.

"From now on, you belong to me."

"I don't think so!"

Ian manipulates the text of the sheep and wolves to form a data stream, and fights against Brainiac's attacks.

"Your technology is good, but now he belongs to me!"

Brainiac's eyes flashed with interest, and he began to parse the words of the sheep and wolf clans and the data streams they composed, and sent them into the database.

Soon, Ian's organized defenses collapsed, and he knew too little about the virtual space showdown.

But just as Brainiac was about to tie Ian to the robot, he suddenly felt like he had lost his sense of the data.

"Hal is still reliable!"

Ian escaped from his mechanical state of life, and his data turned into a soul, spitting out a series of devilish bytes, which flashed to Hell through magic.

He only jumped to the surface of Hell, but still encountered a large number of demons that pounced on him.

Without hesitation, Ian took out Lucifer's feather and waved, and the holy light blocked the demon, and he took the opportunity to jump back into his body.

……

In the solar system, Hal, who was guarding Ian's side, saw that his body seemed to be leaving, and he did not hesitate, reaching out and tearing the mechanical stone off.

Ian instantly returned to his pure body, and then he opened his eyes, removed and put on the template of Happy Superman, and the mechanical stone returned to his body.

He said to Hal, "We're in big trouble!" ”
