I'm doing bidirectional science popularization in American comics

At this moment, the Martian hunter was in a good mood and was very happy that he had finally turned the tables.

There's no way around it, this trip to Gotham was just too frustrating.

Gotham and Metropolis are separated by a bridge, and what separates these two cities, besides the dark clouds, is the ocean current between them.

Selena stood atop the Gotham Bridge, gazing at the vast ocean below, and felt a strange stirring within her.

Selena, now possessed by the Siren Queen's bracelet, has an even more perfect figure, and her bust size rivals Natasha's.

Blue skin is mysterious and elegant, inspiring both lust and trepidation.

Feeling an indescribable surge of emotion within her, Selena whispered, "That's right. To be called the Siren Queen, you must truly belong to the sea. I've always only moved between the sky and the land; I'm so sorry..."

Indeed, Selena rarely goes to the beach.

Even on the day he obtained the Siren Queen, Mera's sudden visit prevented him from continuing to test the Siren Queen's power in the sea.

With that, Selena lightly leaped forward and jumped into the churning sea.

As soon as she entered the seawater, Selena felt incredibly comfortable all over her body.

It was as if this was the place where she was meant to live.

Or rather, this is the Siren Queen's true home turf.

Underwater, Selena's strength more than doubled!

"That feels so good!" Selena said seductively, but she didn't forget the task Depp had given her: "So... let's begin now."

Starting from the sea between Gotham and Metropolis, Selena, like a streak of blue light, began searching every corner of the Earth's oceans.

On land,

In Metropolis, next to Gotham City, Clark, facing this unfamiliar yet slowly becoming familiar city, couldn't use his ability to become intangible like Martian Manhunter did at the beginning, allowing him to pass through walls and enter residential buildings.

Therefore, in public places, Clark was able to complete the search quickly.

However, when faced with private places such as houses and apartments, Clark could only enter through windows with great difficulty or choose to secretly burn the locks to sneak in.

But Clark felt that this was ultimately not a good solution.

I've already broken the locks on most of the houses in Gotham City, so I can't possibly break the locks on Metropolis, or even the whole world, right?

Clark the Lockbreaker?

Locksmith Superman?

This was clearly not the result Clark wanted!

After much thought, Clark had a flash of inspiration and chose a simpler, more effective method that suited his abilities.

In the streets and alleys and between tall and short buildings, Clark only needs to use his X-ray vision to glance at each house and he can see what everyone inside looks like.

Clark was immediately excited to have found a new method.

He immediately sped up and began searching house by house.

The new search method is more efficient than Mars Manhunter's wall-penetrating search, greatly speeding up Clark's search, but it also makes him somewhat worried.

Will forcibly speeding up the process put too much pressure on Johnny Depp?

After all, he only needed to be responsible for one-third of the search task, but Depp had to deal with three times the amount of information!

Just as Clark stopped in his tracks out of worry, Depp immediately said, "Clark, you can speed things up a bit. If you keep dawdling, you'll fall far behind John and Selena!"

Upon hearing this, Clark's previous concerns immediately vanished.

He immediately sped up his legs, even faster than before.

"Wow, thanks to Brother Depp's encouragement, my speed seems to have improved again!"

Clark said excitedly.

Depp assessed his speed and nodded slightly, "Yes, that's true. You did a great job, Clark."

After saying that, Depp whispered to Selena in the ocean, "Of course, my wife is the best!"

Selena chuckled without replying, but she felt incredibly happy inside.

Above the sky, the Martian hunter was circling endlessly over Earth.

Although his mission seemed the simplest, requiring neither high-pressure underwater operations nor house-to-house searches like Clark's.

All you need to do is run around recklessly while being careful to avoid birds and airplanes.

But in reality, the Martian hunters' missions are the most arduous.

Because no one could be certain where Zod and the others would be in the sky.

Neither latitude nor longitude nor altitude can be confirmed.

Therefore, Mars hunters can only ascend two meters at a time, and can only search in cycles on Earth.

"The night wind in Gotham is definitely much cooler and stronger than in Metropolis," Martian Manhunter said, flying mechanically with a bored expression. "It's really quite boring."

At the top of Wayne Tower, Depp stood still, but his eyes were already open.

Because he needs to use the Mirror of Profiles to see every scene that flashes before Selena, Clark, and Martian Manhunter.

Depp kept waving his hands in front of him, as if he was constantly adjusting the size of a screen.

At this moment, the combined supercomputing power from Jarvis and the speed boost from the Speed ​​Force are working at full capacity, allowing Depp to process these massive, fleeting images of information in such an orderly manner.

However, both supercomputing power at full strength and speed force consume enormous amounts of energy.

It has to be said that if Depp hadn't inherited the physical attributes of Clark and Hulk, he wouldn't have lasted even a second.

For an ordinary person, such a massive energy consumption would burn them dry in a fraction of a second, leaving not even bones or skin behind.

At most, when a person disappears from this place, a clump of dry hair will remain.

Beside Depp, Jonathan the Joker stood respectfully and upright.

The clown, dressed in a purple suit, now resembled a waiter ready to serve a guest, holding the concentrated essence of life that Depp had handed him beforehand, staring intently at Depp's mouth with a serious expression.

Opposite him, Wellen Jones, who had arrived late due to business dealings with the group, stood on the other side of Depp, holding a bottle of concentrated life essence, staring sternly at Depp's mouth.

Sensing that his energy was about to run out, Depp opened his mouth.

In the blink of an eye, Wellen, like a green tank, instantly appeared in front of Depp and poured an entire bottle of concentrated life essence directly into Depp's mouth.

Feeling his energy rapidly returning, Depp shut his mouth and continued analyzing and searching.

Although Depp hasn't found any Kryptonians in the footage he's sent back yet, he has already documented many extraordinary individuals and extraterrestrial visitors.

However, with his brain working at full capacity, Depp's body temperature had already exceeded 100 degrees Celsius and was still rising rapidly.

Chapter 352 The Battle of Metropolis (Part 8)

Working overtime and overloaded has left Depp completely red, with even wisps of steam rising from his head.

Wellen Jones and the Joker remained standing on either side of Depp, secretly competing to see who could be the first to feed Depp a mouthful of the concentrated life essence.

Bruce, who was standing nearby, couldn't stand it any longer. He leaped down from the Tower of Wayne, but quickly returned to the top of the tower.

This time, however, Bruce was holding a fire hose.

Bruce flipped a switch, and water gushed out, spraying directly at Depp.

A hissing sound and white mist immediately spread across the Tower of Wayne.

Because of the water cooling effect, Depp's extremely high body temperature immediately began to drop.

Wow! This really feels like being in a sauna!

The clown made a sarcastic remark, then his eyes sharpened.

Because he saw that behind the thick steam, Depp seemed to have opened his mouth again.

Wellen, with his superhuman abilities, caught the detail of Depp opening his mouth a step ahead.

Wellen moved again, his strong green figure moving swiftly through the scorching steam, his target Depp's mouth.

On the other side, the Joker, a step slower, narrowed his eyes slightly, then pulled his right hand back to its limit and threw the concentrated life essence in his hand directly into Depp's mouth.

With a whoosh, the glass bottle was thrown into Depp's mouth, while Wayne in front of him looked completely bewildered.

"This works?" Wellen asked in disbelief.

Depp simply closed his mouth and began chewing noisily.

Then, he swallowed the shards of the glass bottle and the concentrated essence of life.

Depp licked his lips and said, "Who did this? Don't do it again, okay? This stuff is a little prickly!"

Upon hearing this, Wellen immediately pointed at the Joker and said, "Boss, it was the Joker who did it!"

The clown put his hands behind his back, looked up at the sky, and whistled, acting as if it were none of his business.

Depp didn't blame the Joker for his antics; he had neither the interest nor the time.

His attention was entirely focused on the three mind display screens in front of him that were constantly flashing images.

The simultaneous deployment of land, sea, and air resources resulted in an astonishingly fast search efficiency.

Unfortunately, after two hours, Depp still hadn't found a single Kryptonian!

This puzzled Depp, since the Kryptonians went straight to Clarksmore's house after they appeared, so they should be in the United States.

But after searching for two hours, he still found nothing, which was beyond Depp's comprehension once again.

Where are those guys hiding?

Meanwhile, after receiving Zod's provocative message, the militaries of various countries also began their counterattacks.

Almost all of the world's satellites, radars, and drone systems were mobilized to search for those who had threatened to destroy the Earth.

Soon, they discovered some clues.

Deep in the ocean, a haunting blue figure moves swiftly across the world's seas.

One second it was in the Atlantic Ocean, and the next it was in the Pacific Ocean, which immediately alarmed naval forces around the world.

Meanwhile, radar repeatedly detected unidentified objects flying rapidly overhead, but no matter how many aircraft were dispatched, they found nothing, not even a hair on the object.

The other party is like a ghost that keeps wandering in the sky above the earth, invisible and intangible, and can only be detected by radar systems.
