Superman Marvel Adventures

Upon hearing this, the captain said, "We didn't notice it just now, but Yongtai should know what he was talking about. He was looking at the sky and saying there was something there."

“Oh, um, which one of you is Yongtai?” Adam asked.

“I…I am Yongtai.” A young man walked over with his arms crossed and his head trembling slightly. He said, “I saw a flash of silvery-white light before. I was so startled that I fell off the ship. But when I came to my senses, I found that I had not fallen into the sea because the whole sea was frozen over at that time.”

"It happened in an instant?" Adam asked, frowning.

"Yes, it froze in the blink of an eye," Yongtai nodded and said.

"I understand. Okay, I'll take you back now." Adam nodded slightly and said, "Everyone, get into the cabin. It might get colder later."

"Thank you, Mr. Superman." All the crew members immediately thanked Adam, waved goodbye, and left the deck to return to their small cabins.

Upon seeing this, Adam immediately used his thermal vision to melt the ice around the fishing boat, then lifted the entire boat out of the sea, slowly ascended into the air, and after Athena determined the direction, flew towards the nearest dock.

About ten minutes later, Adam placed the fishing boat on the dock and left the skies over Japan amidst enthusiastic applause from the surrounding crowd. He immediately contacted Athena and inquired about the current situation.

"Athena, how is the situation now?" Adam asked.

“Master, the situation on Earth is getting worse. It’s even starting to snow in Egypt.” Athena immediately reported after hearing Adam’s words: “Moreover, many countries are experiencing regional power outages.”

"Still can't pinpoint the surfer's location?" Adam asked.

"It seems the angel fought with the opponent, but was quickly defeated and almost died there," Athena said immediately. "Then the surfer suddenly disappeared. I wanted to inform you, Master, but there wasn't enough time."

“I know, keep monitoring,” Adam sighed.

He knew that the silver surfer was nowhere to be found, but giving up like this wasn't Adam's style, so he could only let Athena continue to keep an eye on him.

"By the way, is Angel alright?" Adam asked. "His dad is a senator and has always opposed Ashma. If he finds out his son almost died, he'll cause trouble again."

“He’s alright, he was rescued by Nightcrawler,” Athena explained. “It seems Professor X sensed the enemy’s strength and sent Nightcrawler along as well.”

"I understand." Adam nodded slightly and said, "Let them go back and rest for today."

“Yes, Master!” Athena replied upon hearing this.

After hearing this, Adam did not continue chatting with Athena. Instead, he personally went to Egypt and other places where the abnormal weather had occurred, but found no problems. This surprised Adam greatly, as it seemed that the enemy this time was very powerful.

"Looks like I'll have to go back and find Tony." Adam shrugged, then took to the air again, leaving the increasingly hot Antarctic and returning to New York City.

"Hey Tony, what are you doing right now?" Adam called Tony as soon as he got back to New York City.

"Hey bro, why are you calling me so late?" Tony's lazy voice came through the phone. "Asking what I'm doing? You'll know what I'm doing once you hear it."

"You're in New York, aren't you?" Adam asked confidently.

“Of course I’m here. Where else would I be if I’m not in New York?” Tony rolled his eyes.

"Hehe, I was just asking. By the way, do you know what happened today?" Adam asked.

“Abnormal weather, huh? I saw the news. But Athena seemed to have mentioned checking on some Silver Surfers before, but I didn’t have time then, so I didn’t go. Did something happen?” Tony shrugged.

“I’ll have Athena send the message to Jarvis.” After Adam finished speaking, he checked the time and said, “Oh, right, it’s dinner time. It’s been a long time since I’ve had dinner at your house.”

"Okay, I'll wait for you at home." Tony said helplessly after hearing this. "I'll have Jarvis prepare your favorite Chinese food."

-------------at the same time---------

At Los Angeles Airport, due to a sudden power outage, the flight's departure time was delayed for a long time, which made Susan, who was already somewhat dissatisfied, even more dissatisfied.

They came to Los Angeles for their wedding, but unfortunately encountered a robbery that forced them to intervene. Because of this, Susan felt that her wedding was full of unexpected events and had a persistent feeling that she might not be able to get married, which made her very unhappy.

“Okay, Susan, I just saw the news. It says there are unusual weather phenomena happening around the world, and some countries are experiencing power outages.” Christine took Susan’s hand and said, “Don’t worry, from what I know, the power will be restored soon.”

"I hope so. Sigh, why am I so unlucky? Ever since I decided to get married, I've always encountered all sorts of troubles," Susan said, rubbing her head as if she had a headache.

“Oh, don’t say that, it’s just a coincidence.” Dr. Reed comforted Susan, saying, “Once we get back to New York, we won’t bother with anything, we’ll just stay inside the building and not go anywhere. That way, we shouldn’t run into anything else. All the necessary preparations have been made.”

Susan glanced at Ben, the Thing, who was taking pictures with others, and her brother Johnny, and said, "Only the two of them can't understand how we feel."

Just then, they received a notification that power had been restored to the city and the airport would be operational in half an hour. This relieved Susan and Dr. Reed; they were finally no longer stuck in this city full of surprises.

Chapter 340 Nationwide Strengthening

"Hmm, so this Silver Surfer is investigating Earth?" Tony asked, stroking his chin as he looked at the virtual projection in mid-air from his home in Manhattan, New York City.

“Maybe. I think this is the eve of an invasion of Earth, but this guy is very cunning. I always feel like he’s hiding from me.” Adam sighed and said, “I’m always one step too late, and every time I’m about to find him, something unexpected always happens.”

Tony shrugged and said, "Maybe he's already investigated you."

“Maybe,” Adam said, frowning. “But this can’t go on. Because of that guy’s appearance, the climate of the entire Earth has undergone very strange changes. If we don’t deal with it quickly, the Earth may be flooded.”

"Is it that serious?" Tony asked in surprise.

“Of course, I’ve been to Antarctica. The ice has already started to melt, and at a faster rate than it has been in recent years,” Adam explained.

"It seems this guy's goal is definitely not as simple as invading Earth; he must be here to destroy it," Tony said with a serious expression.

“I’m worried about that too. If it were just an alien invasion, we could always fight back. But this kind of destruction of the Earth’s environment by abnormal weather is something we can’t contend with, no matter how strong we are,” Adam said in a deep voice.

“We must capture that Silver Surfer.” Tony said grimly, “If Athena needs Stark Industries’ satellites, let her use them directly.”

“The problem is that she’s already using global surveillance satellites, so it’s impossible to catch that guy anytime soon,” Adam sighed.

“Okay, so what brings you here?” Tony asked.

“I just happened to be back in New York, and Christine isn’t here either, so I thought I’d let you know about this.” Adam smiled slightly and said, “Oh, by the way, isn’t Thor also a member of the Avengers? Can you contact him?”

“Thor? Sure, he gave us something like a communicator before he left, saying that if we shout, he can hear us from Asgard. But we haven’t tried it yet,” Tony said after a slight pause.

“Then let’s call him too. I have a feeling we’re facing something extremely dangerous this time. And that silver surfer is just a vanguard, isn’t he?” Adam continued, “Just a few days ago, Athena at the Watchtower received a message from a man who called himself Star-Lord, saying that Earth is being targeted by a cosmic overlord.”

"These are turbulent times, really. We finally managed to accept those gods and demons, and now a cosmic overlord has appeared, and he's even set his sights on Earth?" Tony said with a hint of helplessness.

"It's probably because there's a treasure on Earth," Adam shrugged. "It's the Tesseract. Thor actually warned me last time that if we don't have the strength to protect this thing, Earth might suffer an undeserved disaster."

"What? You're having second thoughts?" Tony asked curiously. "That's our dad's heirloom."

"Uh, when did the Tesseract become Dad's heirloom?" Adam said, somewhat speechless.

“Ever since the day Dad started researching the Cosmic Cube,” To said jokingly, then added seriously, “And to be honest, I don’t think Earth will be safe just because we’ve given up on the Cosmic Cube. If this Cosmic Cube can tempt even a ‘Demon King’ whose name is not dared to be called out by many people in many galaxies, then anyone who gets the cube will definitely kill someone to keep quiet so that no one knows they have it.”

“That’s true. Now that we have no way out, let’s create a future with our own hands!” Adam said with a surge of pride after hearing Tony’s words.

“That’s my brother for you.” Tony smiled slightly and said, “Looks like I might be able to consider becoming a psychologist.”

"Oh, come on, if you became a therapist, I can't imagine what the outcomes would be for your patients," Adam said bluntly.

"Hey, I just healed you," Tony said, feigning a wronged expression.

"Alright, stop joking around. Thanks for your help, bro. I need to get ready now." Adam walked over and hugged Tony, saying.

"Preparations? Pre-battle preparations?" Tony asked. "Should I notify the Alliance?"

“Of course we need to. Although we don’t know if the Silver Surfers and that guy Thanos are in cahoots, we can be sure that Earth will be visited by all sorts of aliens in the future, and we, as their masters, must be prepared,” Adam said, squinting his eyes.

After leaving Tony's house, Adam learned that Christine's flight had been postponed due to a power outage in Los Angeles. Instead of going home, Adam instructed Athena to immediately contact the United Nations and the U.S. Department of Defense, secretly convening a meeting with representatives from various countries. Adam stated that he would provide them with the second-generation body enhancement fluid, and that all these countries needed was the raw materials and that every citizen should have access to the enhancement fluid.

Of course, some people may think this is a saintly act, but it is worth mentioning that if we do not provide the body enhancement fluid to the citizens of the major countries on Earth, then in the countless future contacts with aliens, Earth will be at a disadvantage.

Moreover, for Adam now, money has become just a bunch of data. Because the various patents Adam owns around the world can bring in countless wealth every year, coupled with Dawn Corporation and some other investments, Adam will not have to worry about money at all. So he directly decided to let countries pay for their citizens. They provide the raw materials, Adam provides the medicine, and then the Ashma Association will supervise the implementation of this matter.

Of course, these sovereign states are somewhat dissatisfied with this situation. After all, if things were done according to their wishes, they would first strengthen their own military, and then gradually strengthen politicians, the wealthy, the general public, and so on.

However, Adam would certainly not allow such a thing, because the purpose was to prepare Earth for the vast universe and the invasion of those cosmic powers, rather than allowing these countries to profit from it. Therefore, he stated very firmly that if any country did not provide the enhancement fluid to its citizens, the Super Hero Management Association would forcibly intervene in that country to implement a nationwide enhancement operation.

"I know you'll be unhappy about this, but if you make contact with extraterrestrial civilizations and still feel you don't need our protection, then I will disband the Ashma Association and leave Earth!" Adam said calmly, looking at the expressions of the representatives from various countries. "You can convey my message to your leaders. I'm doing this for the future of Earth. I've already provided Earth with various technologies and enhancement fluids. Everyone, I've done my best. If you continue to hold us back, I will forcefully intervene in your internal affairs!"

"What? Interfering in our internal affairs?! Mr. Adam, have you become arrogant because of the praise from the people?" a representative of one country said sarcastically.

"Hmph, national sovereignty does not allow any organization to interfere. Even if you are doing this for us, please apologize for your words just now!" The representative of another country also expressed his dissatisfaction in a very cold manner.

"That's right, if you really interfere in our internal affairs, we Japanese samurai will fight your Ashma Association to the death! Hmph, our country has the world's largest superpower organization, don't think that just because you have superhumans you can do whatever you want!" The Japanese representative immediately began to shout.

"Hmph! You can try!" Adam looked at these guys with growing disgust and said, "Your biggest reliance is probably nuclear weapons, but sorry, nuclear weapons are useless against me! I'm telling you this upfront: if any country shows favoritism on this matter, it will suffer a thunderous blow from us!"

Chapter 341 The Wedding Begins (Part 1)

Although the representatives of these countries were initially very assertive, they began to panic upon seeing the usually docile Superman suddenly erupt in anger. Indeed, as Adam had just said, these people knew that Adam was extremely powerful and possessed mysterious technology, all of which made them wary. The presence of the Watchtower—the sword of Damocles hanging over their heads—was also one of the reasons they dared not act rashly.

Of course, they were just arguing with Superman out of habit, as arguing with others was their forte. However, since Superman had refused so sternly this time, they would report the contents of the meeting to their country's leaders.

"Ahem, we will report everything that happened today to our leaders," a national representative said in a deep voice.

"Go ahead! I think a tougher stance is needed in this kind of thing," Adam said nonchalantly.

"Oh, right, Mr. Superman," a soldier from the U.S. Department of Defense stood up and asked, "Have you discovered any unusual weather phenomena that have been appearing around the world recently?"

"Well, let me tell you about this. It seems that the cause of this abnormal weather is a silver surfer from outer space." Adam handed the information he had brought to everyone and said, "This is also one of the reasons why I suddenly decided to launch the nationwide enhancement operation to improve the physical strength of Earth's residents in order to cope with various abnormal or severe weather."

"If that's the case, didn't you catch that silver surfer?" a national representative asked.

"The other party is very powerful, and he is deliberately hiding from me, so we haven't been able to capture him yet," Adam said calmly.

"Isn't there any other way?" a U.S. Department of Defense soldier asked.

“We’re still thinking about it,” Adam shrugged. “After all, I’m not some omnipotent god.”

Hearing Adam's words, these people were speechless. Of course, they also began to worry about what might happen to Earth, such as power struggles and other such things. Only when Earth is still in its current state could such things happen. If even Earth were gone, or if humanity were to die out, there would be no rights to fight for.

After seeing this, Adam said, "Alright, leave the matter of this Silver Surfer to us. You go and report today's events to your superiors."

The national representatives breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, then said goodbye to Adam and left the conference room. Only the U.S. Department of Defense personnel remained in the conference room, waiting to work with Adam to resolve the Silver Surfer issue. After all, almost all of the world's most powerful superheroes were concentrated in the United States, and they were always the ones handling such large-scale incidents.

"Mr. Superman, how should we resolve the issue of the Silver Surfers?" the Secretary of Defense asked.

“I’ve already had Athena monitor him. As soon as I get any news, I can contact the Silver Surfer.” Adam frowned and said, “By the way, we’re currently only using Stark Industries’ satellites to monitor the Silver Surfer. If you could give up some of the monitoring satellites or monitor the Silver Surfer yourself and then contact me, that would be great.”

“Okay, Mr. Superman, we will immediately deploy the analysis team to monitor this Silver Surfer.” The Secretary of Defense did not agree to hand over the surveillance satellite, but decided that they would see the Silver Surfer first before informing Superman.

"Then I'll leave this matter to you. Athena has other things to do." After hearing the Minister of Defense's words, Adam didn't say anything else. After all, it was a good thing to have someone share the responsibility, so that Athena could continue to follow up on Star-Lord's matter.

"Yes, please rest assured, we will notify you immediately if we make a discovery," the Minister of Defense said with a slight smile.

"Well then, I'll take my leave now," Adam said calmly, and then left.

After Adam left, he returned home. After all, the Silver Surfer had disappeared without a trace, and even Athena couldn't find him for the time being. Perhaps he was hiding somewhere, and they could only wait for the moment he would reappear.

Time flies.

Time flies, and the Silver Surfer has been on Earth for four or five days now, but no matter how hard Adam tries, he can't track down the guy. Every time Adam arrives at the spot where the Silver Surfer appears, he has already disappeared.

Faced with such an eel-like enemy, even someone of Adam's strength was helpless. After all, the enemy wouldn't even let him see them, so how could he possibly defeat them? He could only wait day after day for an opportunity, because Adam knew that the military had commissioned Dr. Reed to create a tracking device. Once the device was completed, for his own safety, the Silver Surfer should appear where the device was located, and then he could catch this eel.
