I became Superman

Huang Hong's expression turned serious, and he said, "Please forgive me, Mr. Zhou, but the Center for Alien Affairs has an obligation to record the details of the incident and not to omit any important information."

"To be able to defeat a psychological practitioner in the process of ascending to godhood, this is no ordinary method. Mr. Zhou, would you mind revealing the process to us?"

Zhou Ming said, "There's nothing inconvenient about it, but I suggest you don't ask any further questions. It's better for both of us."

Is it good for both sides?

Huang Hong looked at Long Yi in surprise, wondering if it involved the secrets of the Pet Home.

But he noticed that Long Yi looked just as surprised as he did, clearly also unaware of Zhou Ming's meaning.

Huang Hong was silent for a moment, then said, "Mr. Zhou has shown enough goodwill in this incident, and I am willing to consider him as a fellow traveler. However, the Center for the Outcasts has its own rules, and I'm afraid I will have to ask Mr. Zhou to make a trip to the Southwest Headquarters afterward."

Zhou Ming said, "I'll be waiting anytime."

He felt a little heavy-hearted.

He didn't know if the world was ready to welcome a superman.

Damn it, this is a strange topic that you only see in movies, but now it's happening to him in real life.

In recent days, he has witnessed the intense hostility between outcasts and ordinary humans in this world.

Although in his view, all these hostility and conflicts were meaningless and stemmed from nothing but vain arrogance.

A group of clueless oddballs, who for some unknown reason have developed chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) and want to become gods who surpass humanity.

Humanity, on the other hand, wants to maintain its status as the dominant species on its planet.

Although none of these things are meaningful, meaningless does not mean unrealistic.

Aren't humans just a species that likes to fight to the death over meaningless things?

Let's not talk about the huge gap between humans and other species.

In his previous life, people would argue heatedly over the different scores of their countries on IQ tests, striving to prove that their own country and race were the most superior.

Therefore, conflict between beings of different species and humans is almost inevitable.

And now suddenly a superhuman has appeared, surpassing both humans and other beings in both thought and physical ability.

The outcome was predictable.

He himself would also get caught up in those meaningless conflicts.

Neither humans nor other species would accept that there is a superior being above them.

They will not submit unless they are beaten bloody by the iron wall.

Although he had absolutely no interest in becoming a tyrant.

No one would believe that someone with invincible power would not want the power to dominate everyone, but would only want to see how brilliant and interesting the human species could develop through its own wisdom and efforts.

Suspicion will churn in your heart until it brews into endless conflict.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will eventually be able to subdue all those who oppose him.

But in this process, who knows how many people will die.

These people are not even bad people; on the contrary, they are the bravest and most selfless among humans and other beings. They fight against the imagined demons in order to save humanity from the demons' control.

Although this demon was entirely of their imagination.

Many good people have died, and ordinary people's lives can never go back to what they were before. But what about him?

He gained nothing, except human fear, something meaningless to him.

A pointless and tragic sacrifice.

This is the worst-case scenario Zhou Ming anticipated.

He prefers to release his power slowly, allowing humanity to adapt to his existence in the process.

However, things don't always go according to his plan.

He has already shown his goodwill and hopes that the other party will reciprocate with equal goodwill during this trip to the Southwest Headquarters.

Otherwise, they might start a chain of misfortune.

A chain of hostility spiraling together.

Humans will escalate their hostility out of fear until they realize that no means can eliminate the object of their fear.

And naturally, he could only accept the challenge.

Zhou Ming shook his head helplessly, deciding to stop thinking about these pointless things.

Even Superman is helpless against the suspicions of people's hearts.

Huang Hong continued to deal with the affairs of Shanyin Village.

According to him, without a spiritual practitioner who has attained godhood, the spirit cannot separate from the body. The other party must have brought their original body with them when they came to Shanyin Village, and he needs to find that body as well.

Zhou Ming, Long Yi, and Yi Jiahui returned to the command post.

Yi Jiahui was a little worried about him. After Huang Hong and the others left, she said, "Senior, the Alien Center is quite strict with free aliens, especially powerful ones. They always assume that the other party is a potential threat to human society. You must be careful when you go to the Southwest Headquarters this time."

Zhou Ming smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine."

Long Yi said, "It's not that scary. This time, thanks to Zhou Ming, things were resolved smoothly. For that alone, they owe you a favor and should at least believe in your goodwill."

"Speaking of which, I'm just curious what method you used that prevented you from revealing it to Inspector Huang?"

Zhou Ming shook his head with amusement.

What does it reveal?

In the realm of the mind, how can one brazenly crush the spirit of a spiritual practitioner in the process of ascending to godhood?

The three returned to the command post, where Cheng Weiyi was waiting for them.

He already knew from Huang Hong that the matter had been resolved, so his expression was no longer so serious.

Upon seeing Zhou Ming, Cheng Weiyi smiled and said, "Welcome back."

Zhou Ming laughed and said, "The time to fire has passed."

Cheng Weiyi said, "There are new circumstances, so we have to change the plan."

He paused, then continued, "I don't want to unleash artillery fire on my comrades."

This shows they see him as a comrade-in-arms.

"Oh, by the way, there are two people over there who want to see you."

Cheng Weiyi pointed behind the command post.

Zhou Ming had already seen Mr. Xu and his family over there.

He walked straight over.

Mr. and Mrs. Xu were a little reserved.

Xu Meng exclaimed with delight, "You're back!"

Zhou Ming smiled and nodded, saying, "The matter is resolved, and you should be able to leave soon. Did they give you any requests?"

Mr. Xu said, "We signed a confidentiality agreement, prohibiting the dissemination of this incident."

After saying that, he couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Zhou, do these kinds of things happen frequently? Will we encounter something like this again someday?"

In just half a day, he felt like his world had been turned upside down.

His entire life was disrupted, and he could no longer return to his previous life.

Everything in life becomes questionable.

He can't help but scrutinize the people around him, wondering if a monster capable of manipulating others' minds is parasitic inside them.

He fears every shadow in his life, wondering if there are more evils lurking within them.
