Superman from the comics: Starting with the Black Robe

Chapter 484 Chaotic Battle

A series of chilling airbursts echoed over the metropolis.

Joey discovers that, surrounded by enemies, his body is gradually becoming more and more specialized.

Doomsday's birth process, marked by repeated deaths at the hands of Kryptonian creatures, instilled in him a primal, unprovoked rage when confronting the Kryptonians.

This characteristic had already been demonstrated when fighting other Kryptonians, but it was more directly apparent now. Before Joey's senses could react to the swift wind pressure coming from behind, he instinctively turned and grabbed a Kryptonian elite who was attacking from behind, slamming him into the arms of the three who were rushing towards him from the front.

The Kryptonians' biofield is the result of their cellular energy being activated and released under yellow sunlight. When Superman uses it, this biofield can accomplish many incredible things.

Its primary function is to serve as the first line of defense against external attacks, giving Kryptonians an extra layer of protection, much like a shield.

Originally, the strength of the biofield was directly linked to the strength of the Kryptonian's physical body. As long as the physical body's power level was not depleted to a certain extent, nothing could cross the biofield and only injure the physical body.

But now Joey has done it.

After dodging the two Kryptonian warriors' frontal grabs and chokeholds, Joey threw a straight punch, shattering their helmets and visors, sending them flying thousands of miles into the air while splattering blood from their noses.

Doomsday's passive nature—which allows it to absorb damage and adapt when facing other threats—makes it particularly proactive when fighting Kryptonian creatures.

In the ancient Kryptonian era, Doomsday, under the red sun, didn't need to deal with enemies with biofields, but that didn't stop its instincts from driving Joey's biofield to evolve in a strange direction.

Several more Kryptonians closed in, attacking from four or five directions. Joey attacked from both sides, directly at the center of the Kryptonian metal armor, shattering the strongest armor plate on their chests, which was engraved with an unknown family crest.

The microcomputer inside the armor, which controlled the nanomaterials, had no time to react to such immense force and shattered into sharp pieces of metal, which pierced the chests of these people like shrapnel, even damaging their internal organs.

Some of Krypton's metallic minerals exhibit the same properties as those of ordinary Kryptonians under yellow sunlight, which makes Kryptonian metal armor with built-in yellow sunlight indestructible in terms of both hardness and toughness.

It was this that caused Joey's first death; it was practically a perfect weapon against Kryptonians.

But no weapon could compare to the bio-field that Joey was radiating outwards at this moment. In the almost instantaneous mutation and evolution, his bio-field was like a knife cutting through butter, easily tearing apart the external defenses of these people, along with their armor and bio-field.

Blood splattered in front of Joey, and with a kick, he sent the Kryptonian soldiers, who were gasping for breath because their lungs had been pierced, flying out of the atmosphere, leaving a trail of blood across the sky. Although it looked terrifying, such injuries were nothing to a Kryptonian. It was still night in Metropolis, but it was daytime outside the atmosphere. With the yellow sunlight, the wounds would heal sooner or later.

The Kryptonians, who were kicked out of the competition and sent into space, obviously had a different opinion. They were exposed to the yellow sunlight, but they basically fainted immediately.

After clearing his attack range again within seconds, Joey, surrounded by over a thousand Kryptonians, was starting to get a little carried away. He gave up waiting for these Kryptonians to come to him and instead charged straight ahead like a tiger among sheep: "Why did you stop? Who's next?"

After several fierce battles with the Kryptonians, Joey is now far superior to them in terms of stats and mechanics.

Joey's figure swept into the crowd, and a red whirlwind rose up, throwing the Kryptonian soldiers caught in it into the air with a muffled thud almost instantly.

Just as Kara Zor El had predicted long ago, if the rumors within the El family are true, Jor El's dangerous actions back then did indeed create an ultimate weapon against Kryptonians.

"Did you guys see that?! That's insane!"

Watching Kal'El move with impunity, the Kryptonian army, organized by squadron, exchanged information on the already critical situation in their respective battles via communication channels. It wasn't just Kal'El's madness that drove them nearly insane; "Is this still a Kryptonian?! Are we living in some historical fiction story?"

As a race closely related to humans, Krypton has its share of popular literary works and historical legends filled with individual heroism.

The idea of ​​a lone rider breaking through enemy lines with a single spear, or a single person galloping across a vast army, is not unfamiliar to Kryptonians.

But at least they knew those were just ancient and exaggerated legends, but they never expected that these things could still exist in the real world!

The Kryptonians understand that there are indeed significant differences between people, but no one told them that these differences would be so pronounced!

What's even more counterintuitive is that, for the vast majority of Kryptonians, the yellow sunlight actually raises everyone's ceiling and levels out what was originally a chasm-like gap.

Even someone like Fiora, with her combination of strength and skill, who could carve up a bloody mess of dangerous individuals in the heavily guarded Kryptonian High Council under the red sun, would be taken down on the spot by so many Kryptonians under the yellow sun!

Who would have thought that another chasm called Karl El would appear on Earth?

"How about trying thermal imaging?"

"That thing is useless!"

The military academy's textbooks have already made it very clear that every Kryptonian has a limit to their energy reserves. Exceeding the limit will cause problems, as will running out of energy.

Providing thermal imaging is the third most dangerous operation among those that "can lead to energy depletion".

Heat vision is an extremely energy-consuming activity for Kryptonians. If they don't control it well and exert too little force, it's just like tickling the opponent; but if they exert too much force, it will directly drain their own energy.

If you fail to eliminate your opponent after a full-force heat vision attack, then you, with your energy depleted, will be the one to suffer.

But while the speaker meant no harm, the listener took it to heart; their whispers reminded Joey that it was time to activate his AOE form.

A beam of heat, enough to illuminate the entire sky, burst forth from the very center of the heavily surrounded area, lighting up the night sky of the metropolis.

The Kryptonians who were hit only had time to protect their faces before they found that their metal armor was completely melted by the scorching flames and fell down like raindrops.

After projecting such a powerful energy, the crimson light dimmed at the corner of Karl El's eye, while he was merely breathing slightly.

"He's really not quite a Kryptonian anymore."

Seeing this, the Kryptonians, who were originally fighting against the Guardians, had no choice but to spare more troops and send them to Kal-El's side.

This added even more chaos to an already chaotic battlefield.
