Superman's End Manual

"It's fireworks!"

"What beautiful fireworks!"

But the next moment, a strange laugh rang out in the sky, enveloping everyone's ears like an electronic broadcast.

Asking for a monthly ticket!

Chapter 75 Superhero or Supervillain

[Congratulations! You have completed the first objective of the main quest "Destroy the Superhero Round Table"—approaching the superhero "Blue Raven" under a disguise.]

This main storyline has split into two routes. To play both routes simultaneously, you will need to assume the roles of both a "superhero" and a "supervillain."

As a red and black panel popped up in front of him, Ke Mingye snapped out of his daze on the sofa. He had finished the cola in his right hand, so he casually threw it into the trash can.

"Holy crap, is this the terrifying crowman?" he thought. "I feel like laning against him is even more stressful than laning against my big brother. He just met me and immediately used a combo that sent me to my death. He really doesn't make any sense."

Just in case, the moment he was caught by the crow, he removed the web-shooter and train conductor's uniform from the doll, which were far more valuable than the doll itself.

"Two routes?"

Ke Mingye stared intently at the red and black panel in front of him, where text was constantly being updated.

[The following details the two objective routes for the main mission "Destroy the Superhero Roundtable".]

The objective of the first route is: "Not a superhero, but a supervillain acting out of a sense of justice"—by impersonating a superhero under a false identity, infiltrating the Superhero Association, and raising one's superhero rating within the association to D-rank (the lowest rank for a superhero is E-rank).

The objective for the second route is: "The Day You Slay the Tyrant"—This will raise your wanted level on the Superhero Association's official website to Level B (currently a Level C wanted criminal).

[Note: The two target routes can be pursued simultaneously and alternately.]

"Come on, could it be any harder?" Ke Mingye thought. "Playing a villain on one hand and pretending to be a superhero on the other, wouldn't that be insane?"

What he was more curious about was how to infiltrate the Superhero Association. To accomplish this, he would need at least a world-class hacker to create a flawless identity for him.

But he didn't have such a person by his side.

[Node rewards received: 2000 experience points, 8 attribute points, 2000 shop coins.]

Your level has been increased to Lv.8 (1500/4500 points), and you have received 1 attribute point as a reward for leveling up.

There are currently 9 idle attribute points. Please allocate and use them promptly.

All attribute points were added to the "Physical Fitness" column.

His strategy is to first develop one outstanding attribute, then use skills and equipment to make up for the disadvantages caused by other attributes, and then start to distribute attributes evenly in the mid-game.

"People can have flaws, but they cannot be mediocre. Everyone must have a special skill in order to truly establish themselves in society."

In his memory, Ke Youqing had taught these words to seven children at home.

Whenever he recalls those words, Ke Mingye can't help but silently complain to himself: "That's true, but Dad, you have way too many flaws. Look at how people online are criticizing you, and then reflect on yourself, okay?"

Especially the other six sisters in the family, such as Magical Girl Ash and Black Judge, their extreme and dual personalities are mostly due to Ke Youqing's genes and education.

However, as Ke Youqing himself said, his specialty is indeed quite long; otherwise, how could he have survived being boycotted by the entire internet for so many years without being removed from office?

Ke Mingye wholeheartedly agreed and decided to apply this formula for living to his attribute points, using the way of the evil dragon to fight against the evil dragon, and it would be just around the corner to trample the blue crow under his feet.

[Physical fitness attribute change: 51 points → 60 points.]

[Congratulations! Your "Physical Fitness" attribute has successfully surpassed the minimum attribute standard for an E-level superhuman (60 points).]

"It was so easy. Luckily, the player rankings aren't based on player strength, but on the number of superhumans killed. Otherwise, I would have been stuck at the top of the rankings forever."

Thinking this, Ke Mingye opened his friends list and clicked on the Mario avatar of Anti-Dog.

[The Failed Man: Hey, are you there?]

[Anti-dog: What's wrong?]

[The Failed Man: I've been caught by the crows, looks like I won't be able to see you anymore.]

[Anti-Dog: Okay, I just watched the live stream. You did get a pretty bad beating from your dad. How about tomorrow afternoon?]

Ke Mingye's eye twitched. He thought to himself that this guy's words subtly conveyed a sense of irony, like "a primary school student sneaking into an internet cafe in the middle of the night, only to be caught by his father and given a good beating on the butt with a stick."

Damn it, this is clearly a fateful battle between the superhero "Blue Raven" and the supervillain "Strange Thing," can't you show a little respect?

And so, Ke Mingye's rebellious streak kicked in.

I thought to myself, so what if I got caught by my dad? I'll just turn around and catch him again, he can't possibly catch me a second time, right?

Thinking this, he clicked on the skill cooldown icon in the upper left corner of his vision, and a panel popped up: [Because you actively destroyed "Explosive Puppet", you can release it again in ten minutes].

Then, type a reply message on the panel.

[The Failed Man: Why don't you stay at the arcade a little longer? I'll be there in ten minutes.]

[Anti-dog: Oh well, I'll be staying here until 10 PM anyway. You'd better watch yourself, or your dad will drag you back again.]

[The defeated man: Get lost.]

Ke Mingye closed the panel, and the world instantly became quiet.

He lay on the sofa, looking at Bai Ziling and Bai Zini beside him. Both were tired from playing games, so they leaned back on the sofa and played on their phones.

At this moment, Bai Zini's expression was somewhat strange, her face unusually cold. Her eyes were fixed on her phone screen, which was playing a viral video from Weibo.

Ke Mingye leaned over and took a look.

In the video, the superhero Blue Raven is talking to a gray humanoid dressed as a flight attendant on a traffic light sign. The next moment, the gray humanoid shoots a spider web at the electronic screen on the high-rise building, leaps up, grabs the web and is about to fly away, but Blue Raven somehow flashes in front of it and reaches out to tightly grasp its neck.

"Holy crap, what is this drab gray thing? Is it some kind of supervillain?" Ke Mingye said.

"I don't know, this is the first time I've seen it," Bai Zini said calmly.

She paused, then put her phone away: "I'm going out for a walk. I've been playing games for too long, and my eyes are sore."

"It's the middle of the night, let's stay together."

"No, I like to take walks alone."

"You said this morning that you'd ask me to go running with you next time."

"Dude, when did you become so clingy?"

After saying that, Bai Zini glanced at him, silently got up from the sofa, walked to the entrance with a cold face, put on her shoes and went outside.

Ke Yongzhu watched for a while before finally taking over Bai Ziling's place and picking up the game controller. Unfortunately, Bai Ziling was already tired of playing, so they could only lean their heads together and watch TV.

"Tagalong".

Ke Yongzhu kept her eyes on the TV, but said something about Ke Mingye.

"Yes."

Although Bai Ziling didn't know what had happened, she still casually replied.

"What's it to you two?"

Ke Mingye rolled his eyes at the two of them, wondering when they had become so close, but his attention was quickly drawn to something else.

Just as Bai Zini stepped out the door, she came back, lowered her head, and said to Ke Mingye, "Never mind, let's go for a walk together."

"Didn't you have something to do?"

Ke Mingye looked at her strangely, thinking to himself, "Why are you doing one thing after another?"

He knew that Bai Zini must have wanted to go to Qingya to ask about the "strange thing," but what was the point... He had already broken free from Qingya by self-destructing, and he wouldn't be able to find her now.

"I'd rather go for a walk with you than go."

Bai Zini was silent for a moment, then spoke in a low voice.

"Let's go then, and while we're at it, let's go find our eldest and second eldest brothers at the nearby coffee shop."

Ke Mingye hesitated for a moment, and was about to say that he would go upstairs to find his phone to make excuses and then release the trick doll, but after thinking about it, he decided against it. He opened his friends panel and sent a message to the anti-dog.

[The Failed Man: Something's come up, I can't go tonight.]

[Anti-dog: Did your dad catch you again?]

[The Failed Man: No, that's all for now, see you tomorrow.]

After sending the message, he closed the panel, moved along with Bai Zini to the door, squatted down and put on his sneakers.

"Why do you seem to have so many things on your mind lately?" he asked while tying his shoelaces.

"Is there any?"

“You’re all written on your face. You can’t hide anything from your family. They can tell right away.”

"Oh."

"So what happened?"

Ke Mingye walked into the elevator, pressed the open button on the panel, and quietly waited for Bai Zini to enter the car.

Bai Zini stood outside the sedan chair with her hands behind her back and her head down, her loose hair obscuring her eyes.

"Don't ask anymore, okay?" she said.

"Fine, if you don't want to talk about it, then forget it." Ke Mingye tilted his head, his finger still pressing the 'Open' button on the panel. "My hand is getting tired. What exactly do you want?"
