American comic book red Superman

"Hal Jordan asked."

"No, let's all go home and sleep first. It's already eleven o'clock, it's getting late."

Luo Wei shook his head, glanced at the time, and realized that it was really inappropriate to go looking for the Mother Box so late. In any case, the humanoid demons wouldn't be able to find the Mother Box anytime soon, so he decided to go back and rest first.

Besides, he has to attend the opening ceremony of the competition tomorrow morning, and he hasn't forgotten the purpose of this trip to the United States. It would be bad if someone found out that a student had gone missing in America.

"good idea."

Bruce hadn't taken off his mask or the voice changer yet; his voice was still low and hoarse.

From Luo Wei's perspective, it's like having phlegm stuck in his throat, a pretentious and mysterious brooding guy. But it's worth noting that Batman and Bruce Wayne are not the same person. One is the glamorous rising star of Wayne Enterprises, while the other is a dark legend of Gotham.

Some believe Bruce Wayne is the mask, while Batman is the true soul within. So, is Bruce playing Batman, or is Batman playing Bruce?

"In that case, I'll be going now. I know the way. See you tomorrow."

Hal Jordan trusted Batman and believed there was no problem with the Mother Box being stored there, so he simply said goodbye and flew away.

"You're not leaving?"

Bruce Wayne asked.

"Sorry, I'm leaving now. I just don't want to spend the night with a grown man."

As he spoke, Luo Wei flew away.

However, he didn't go straight back to Metropolis. He hadn't forgotten that he needed to go to Kansas to see the Kents. Although it was getting late, he still wanted to take a look before going back. It would only take a few minutes at most.

After the preparation hall was empty, leaving only Bruce, a door on the wall opened, and Alfred walked out.

"Master, what's wrong?"

Seeing his silence, Alfred asked.

"When you look at that masked guy on the surveillance footage, does he look familiar? I feel like I've seen him somewhere before."

Bruce Wayne turned to look at him and said.

"Really? I don't have a strong impression of that. Perhaps you're just too tired, sir. You've been busy dealing with things in Gotham lately, and now you've encountered the alien incident."

Alfred said reassuringly.

"maybe."

Bruce Wayne said this, but he already had the answer in his heart. Superman, the mysterious man from earlier, no matter what kind of ability or height, always reminded him of Superman.

"Sir, the authorities have already sent people to the outskirts. They should have seen the corpses of those alien species, but I haven't had time to deal with them yet."

Alfred said.

"It's alright, this can't be kept secret."

As Bruce Wayne spoke, he turned and walked out of the base, returning to the manor. He wanted to go back and carefully read the reports about Superman to see if his judgment was accurate.

at the same time

Smallville, Kansas, is a small town in the countryside that makes a living by farming. You can always see large rice paddies and many cornfields around the town.

At this moment, in front of a farm, several middle-aged men and women sat around a campfire in an open space, eating barbecue, with beer beside them, chatting and laughing. The firelight reflected off their faces, making them rosy-cheeked, but it couldn't hide the joy on everyone's faces.

"Mr. and Mrs. Kent."

Unbeknownst to him, Rowe arrived outside the farm. He didn't go in, but stood on the path by the farm fence, looking at the men and women sitting around the campfire. One of the kind and gentle couples made him feel good at first glance.

"Excuse me, do you need help?"

Kent spotted Rowe standing outside the farm fence and, perhaps sensing the complexity of his expression, couldn't help but ask him a question.

"Kent, what are you doing? This guy showing up here so late at night might not be up to any good."

A friend standing next to me couldn't help but remind me.

Kent, however, insisted on getting up and going to take a look.

"No need, I'm in a hurry, I'll be going now."

Lowe had no intention of going in. When he saw Kent coming over, he waved and strode away, leaving Kent with his wife in his arms. Watching Kent's departing figure, Lowe felt an emptiness in his heart, as if something was missing.

"call"

Rowe left the farm.

I'm preparing to return to the Metropolis.

boom--

Suddenly, a loud bang came from deep space. He looked up sharply and his pupils contracted. He saw a spaceship engulfed in flames breaking through the atmosphere. A very conspicuous symbol was visible on the spaceship.

Look closely, it's an "S"!

[PS: There will be another chapter later]

Chapter 75, Section 074: The Mother Box (Part Two)

Whoosh——

In the deep night sky, a ball of fire pierced the silent void, plummeting towards the town of Smallville. Because some clouds obscured the moonlight tonight, the fire appeared particularly dazzling, like a meteor breaking through the atmosphere.

"That's the symbol of the El family."

Along the roadside in the rice paddies, Luo Wei looked up. His superhuman vision allowed him to see at a glance that beneath the flames was a spaceship, and that the ship bore the "S" symbol of the El family, a symbol of hope.

Upon seeing this, the first thought that came to mind was who was on board the spaceship. As Luo Wei thought this, his body shot up like a cannonball, rushing towards the spaceship at full speed. The moment he took off, a deafening sonic boom echoed.

Whoosh——

In the blink of an eye, Luo Wei's figure had arrived in front of the spaceship. The flames shone on his face, and the light became more and more dazzling as he got closer.

"call"

To avoid attracting attention, Luo Wei exhaled a cloud of cold air, which blew on the flames on the spaceship, causing them to flicker violently. After a moment, the flames went out, and he suddenly reached out and grabbed the spaceship that had flown in front of him. His super vision also allowed him to see through the thick hull of the spaceship and into the interior.

He paused slightly, "It's a girl?"

Inside the spaceship, a sleeping girl came into view. She had delicate features, a high nose bridge, and a quiet and gentle demeanor. She wore a green and black outfit, typical of Kryptonian clothing, with the El family insignia on her chest.

Looking at the interior of the spaceship again, Luo Wei felt it looked very familiar. Then it dawned on him that this spaceship was the same model that had landed there years ago!

Luo Wei subconsciously uttered a name, "Is that Kara inside?"

The sleeping girl seemed to hear someone calling her; her closed eyes narrowed slightly, and her beautiful eyelashes fluttered.

Inside the massive, black-and-gold Arctic spaceship, in the main hall, lay a charred small spaceship, covered in snow. The steel exuded a chilling aura, though the snow gradually melted under the temperature regulation. Beside the spaceship, a young girl lay asleep on a bed.

"Karl, do you think she is Kara Zo-El?"

Joe El stood to the side and looked at Rowe, who was frowning, and asked.

"Yes, Father, you should have met her before."

Luo Wei nodded and said.

"I have seen her before, but that was many years ago. Kara was very young then, but I still feel like I recognize her."

Joe El carefully examined the girl's appearance and nodded in affirmation. This girl, who was only fourteen or fifteen years old, was his brother Zo El's daughter and Rowe's cousin.

"How did she end up on Earth, and at the wrong time?"

Luo Wei muttered to himself, "The timing is definitely wrong. If we judge from the previous plot, Kara should have come to Earth when I was in my forties or fifties. Kara would have been forty years old then, but due to her excellent and unique genes, she looks like she's only a teenager."

But now, Kara in front of me looks like she's in her teens, and she's actually in her teens too.

"Wrong timing?"

Joe Al noticed his son's thoughts and asked in confusion.

No, just

"Something feels off. How did Kara suddenly get sent to Earth? And when was she sent here? Was Krypton destroyed when she arrived? Does Krypton still exist? Father, are you still alive?"

As Luo Wei spoke, he looked at Joe El. After saying this, he felt much less doubtful, because the universe he was in was not like the original story, so the plot would be different. Perhaps some of these changes would lead to a butterfly effect, causing the world to change.

He firmly believed this, because he himself was a special being.

"I do not know."

Joe El didn't answer the question again. Instead, he turned to look at the sleeping Kara and said, "Perhaps when she wakes up, she will tell you the answer you want."

"She probably won't wake up anytime soon."

Rowe scanned Kara's entire body, clearly seeing through her skin and tissues the flow of blood and every organ in her body. He shook his head and said, "There's something wrong with her body, probably caused during the flight, but it's not a big problem. The sun will give her strength, and I think she'll wake up in a couple of days."

"Hmm, so, who are you planning to have here?"

"Joe El asked."

"Of course, I can't bring her back with me."

Luo Wei shrugged. Putting aside how Director Huang and Teacher Chen would react if he suddenly brought a beautiful woman back, her status as an unregistered resident was already a huge problem.

From now on, Kara, the cousin, will most likely have to live in the spaceship. However, this will not affect the Kryptonians. As long as there is sunlight from the golden sun, Kryptonians can survive anywhere, and may even become immortal.

Before leaving, Lowe arranged a room for Kara, but just to be on the safe side, he locked all the doors and reinforced the four sides with steel plates. He wasn't worried that Kara would wake up and smash the spaceship to escape, because the spaceship was dark and Kara, without sunlight, had no energy reserves and couldn't activate her superpowers. He did this mainly because he was worried that Kara would cause trouble in an unfamiliar environment, so it was best to make the most conservative preparations.

After settling everything in, Lowe returned to the Metropolis.

At five in the morning, the bustling metropolis was still immersed in quiet sleep. The streets were sparsely populated and traffic was light, and entertainment venues were much quieter. Many passersby were seen vomiting against the walls on the street.

At this moment, a series of white trucks drove into the basement of the Lex Group building in the city center. Several workers in hazmat suits got out of the trucks, exchanged a few words with the security personnel, and the security personnel, with solemn expressions, immediately let them pass. The trucks disappeared into the dark end of the basement.

“Eve, you’d better make it clear to them that if they don’t have a perfect reason to convince me, they will suffer the wrath of those who disrupt my research.”

In the basement, in the brightly lit lobby of the LexCorp Research Institute, Lex Luthor sat in a chair, drinking coffee, his face grim.

“You’ll be satisfied. You have no idea how much I paid to get these things before they were willing to let Lex Group research them.”

Eve frowned, her charming face revealing bitterness, clearly displeased that her boss didn't think highly of her.

Click—

At this moment, the research institute's doors opened, and a group of people pushed in large white boxes. The boxes were specially made to hold experimental products, and were airtight, preventing the virus from circulating with the outside air.

“Mr. Luther, you will be satisfied.”

A man in a black suit walked in with him. He smiled, clapped his hands, and the white box behind him slowly opened.
