I, the younger brother of Superman, ended up with a Thanos template.

He had some guesses after the last abnormal increase in template integration.

The system requires influencing figures important to the fate of the world to gain emotional points, namely superheroes or supervillains and those with extraordinary abilities.

"But in the drama of the world's destiny, what role have ordinary people always played?"

They seem insignificant, mostly unremarkable, and are constantly being saved by powerful supervillains. But if they didn't exist, would the entire plot still have any meaning?

Superheroes defeat supervillains and thwart plots to destroy the world, but if the world is a barren wasteland, is it still worth cheering and encouraging?

"This is the hidden 'important person'."

David raised his palm and unleashed a torrent of energy that shattered several robots. His eyes narrowed.

Although these ordinary people never appear on the panel refresh, they do indeed increase his integration level.

From the moment he appeared before the public as a member of the Purple Light Clan, he had been paying attention and confirmed this fact. Every time he appeared, he stirred the emotions of those ordinary people.

"Afterwards, the template integration rate will show an abnormal increase!"

David has no interest in saving the world or doing anything for strangers who have nothing to do with him, but if it's for emotional reasons, he doesn't mind helping someone out if it's not dangerous.

"Leaked Kryptonian samples have been detected and must be destroyed!"

Upon seeing David and Clark, the army of skeleton robots roared and took to the air. The steel army swarmed in like locusts, seemingly having found a higher priority than destroying the world.

"Unknown life form detected for priority capture. Prepare for capture!"

Energy laser cannons rained down like a storm, along with steel fists capable of easily piercing tanks. David and Clark fought their way through the robot army.

"We can't let any of these robots leave our sight intact." Clark swung his iron fist, the powerful force causing the steel alloy used to forge the robots to shatter.

David manipulated the gravity field and squeezed hard, like crushing a group of insects, crushing hundreds of skeleton robots together into a pile of scrap metal, which he then let fall to the ground.

These skeleton robots, created by Brainiac, appeared to be crude and inferior products in the hands of David and Clark, but in reality, these robots had destroyed world after world for Brainiac.

Speaking from Earth's perspective.

Any one of these swarming robots can operate in various terrains and environments, including deserts, lava fields, and the seabed. They can fly at speeds of up to ten times the speed of sound, easily throw tanks weighing tens of tons, and their energy attacks can penetrate skyscrapers.

The terrifying power of a single machine to destroy the army of a powerful nation!

Tens of thousands of skeleton robots could easily destroy the Earth.

If a robot escapes from here and embarks on its predetermined path to destroy the world, countless people may die under its slaughter.

Gotham and Metropolis, like twin brothers, one gloomy and silent, the other prosperous and passionate, gaze at each other across a stretch of coastline.

But now the other side of the coast has become a huge sinkhole, a dark void staring at the sky, leaving only Gotham.

Brainiac's so-called collection of samples of civilizations was actually a ruse where, upon arriving at a habitable planet, his spaceship would immediately invade the entire planet's intelligent database and download all useful information.

Whether he stays in the city or not is irrelevant; it's just his personal preference.

Metropolis is not the most perfect city on Earth, and it is difficult to call it a sample of Earth's civilization.

However, Gotham is not a suitable model for Earth's civilization. Its darkness and decay, which caused even the mechanical Kryptonians to frown upon its depravity, allowed it to escape unscathed.

However, Gotham's Batman did not stand idly by in the face of the crisis in the neighboring city. He piloted his Fenrir mech to the skies above Metropolis to join the battle.

Prometheus, which absorbs energy, protects him from all attacks, possesses the power to sink warships, and destroys robot after robot.

"What's the reason this time?"

He launched a bat-shaped grappling hook, grabbed a skeleton robot, and swung it around as a weapon, smashing more than a dozen others. A hoarse, gloomy voice came from the tall, heavy mech, making his expression predictable even without seeing his face.

“I have lived for more than 30 years, although I have spent half of that time outside this country.”

But I also remember that the metropolis has never been this lively before!

But ever since you appeared…

Global crises involving the universe and extraterrestrials occur one after another, all centered around the metropolis.

This inevitably raises suspicions that the existence of these two individuals has drawn the attention of some terrifying entities in the universe to this planet.

"It's like two rhinoceros beetles appearing in an ordinary ant nest. People who would normally ignore it by the roadside will stop from time to time to look at it and try to destroy it to study it, which will bring disaster to the ant nest."

Bruce Wayne's suspicious mind stirred again. If the two of them left this planet, would the world return to its former superficial peace, and would he simply be able to swing around the city in his Batsuit as before?

“There are all sorts of lunatics in Gotham, especially a lot of mentally ill people who don’t commit crimes for money, and their numbers have increased since you came along.”

David manipulated the gravitational field to shatter the dozens of robots that rushed towards him, glanced at him, and said coldly.

"Can these phenomena also be attributed to you?"

In fact, Bruce Wayne's speculations weren't entirely unfounded; to some extent, these crises were indeed related to Clark's emergence.

In the comics, Dr. Manhattan used the universe as a testing ground to study this matter. Clark is the starting point of everything and can even influence the past. As long as his fate changes even slightly, the timeline will undergo a huge change.

It can be said that Clarke is the son of DC and the center of the multiverse.

"They came to Earth in pursuit of Zod's ship."

Clark slammed a skeleton robot away, shattering its internal parts with his violent force. His expression turned slightly grim as he explained in a deep voice.

He didn't want things to turn out this way, but it happened anyway, and the disaster Zod brought was enough to make him feel guilty.

But that wasn't the end of it; another huge problem was about to arise.

"No matter who's behind these robots!"

I must stop him! No one will be hurt in this incident!

Clark's eyes burned with heat as he swept his gaze across a large group of robots, then he clenched his fist and looked up at the sky.

"Someone has come from space!"

David gazed at the distant sky and squinted.

In space, inside a giant skull-shaped spaceship.

The mechanical Kryptonian surveyed the metropolis beneath the glass dome, his steel fingers tracing across it. He ignored the people inside, screaming and crying in terror as they stared at the 'giant hand reaching for the sky,' and waved his hand dismissively.

"Take it away and seal it up."

Two skeleton robots stepped forward and took the 'Metropolis' that had transformed into a city inside a bottle.

Zo El looked down with a cold gaze.

The steel floor transformed into a transparent screen, continuously displaying data on David and Clark's battle against the skeleton robots, his intelligent brain rapidly calculating and arriving at unpleasant conclusions.

"If there is no external interference."

Tens of thousands of combat units will be wiped out by these two in a dozen minutes.

He controlled the spaceship to open the hatch, and crimson flames spewed from beneath his feet, like a comet bringing misfortune and death, hurtling straight down.

Above the metropolis, the three gazed at the crimson comet that rubbed against the atmosphere, creating flames and its entire body engulfed in fire.

The atmosphere was restless and buzzing, and a powerful, oppressive aura swept over.

"It's you!"

Clark roared and threw a punch.

"The source of this disaster?!"

Bang!

Flames exploded, and a blue and red figure flashed into view. Clark was blasted away, and a visible shockwave exploded, sweeping across a hundred meters.

Faced with an unprecedentedly powerful enemy, Clark felt as if he had been hit on the head by a meteorite. He flew hundreds of meters, steadied himself, shook his head, and was about to raise his fist to retaliate angrily when he suddenly froze.

"You...who are you?"

David and Bruce Wayne's eyes darted rapidly between the two men.

The ferocious skeleton robot stopped at this moment, guarding the newcomer like a protector, making him appear like a high and mighty mechanical god.

The same red and blue battle suits, similar "S" symbols on the chest, and even somewhat similar faces—one is almost a flesh-and-blood version, and the other a mechanical version.

"Mechanical Superman!"

David's eyes narrowed, recognizing the newcomer from his distinctive appearance.

Cyborg is Brainiac's subordinate, a product of his technological modifications, one of the survivors of Krypton, and also Clark's uncle and Supergirl's father—Zo El.

"Krypton is a renowned and powerful civilization throughout the universe, and Brainiac has always coveted Krypton's cities as models for his civilization."

When Krypton was destroyed, he protected and preserved a Kryptonian city called Kandor. Zo El was caught in the explosion and nearly died. Brainiac transformed him into a servant to collect samples of civilizations for him, turning him into a cyborg superhuman.

"I am the ultimate Kryptonian created by the Creator, here to fulfill His will!"

Zo El coldly looked at Clark and David, his hand transforming into a sharp battle blade, like a messenger proclaiming God's will, and fiercely attacked the two.

"You need to be eliminated, and you need to be captured!"

Chapter 142: The Arrival of Brainiac

The mechanical superhero was modified by Brainiac, forgetting his past memories and losing the calm wisdom of the renowned Kryptonian scientist and the gentle tolerance he showed towards his family.

He acted swiftly and ruthlessly, like a real machine. After appearing, he didn't say more than a few words before quickly completing his mission and heading towards David and Clark.
