I, the anti-superman, have hacked into the chat group.

Upon seeing the Kryptonians land, everyone stood nervously in place. They knew that as long as they didn't do anything against the rules, they wouldn't be harmed, so they all stayed where they were, and no one ran away.

Superman tried to talk to one of them, but before he could even utter a complete sound, the other person was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground.

The citizen thought he had done something wrong and was going to be eliminated by Superman. After all, Carl never personally interfered with what the citizens did, and whenever he did take action, it was always to deal with those who committed crimes in the city.

"Ah! You, no... ah..."

Superman was quite helpless, but the other party was so frightened that he couldn't even speak a complete sentence. In this situation, he could only leave first so that the other party would have a chance to calm down.

Superman flew away from the street, and only then did people gradually return to normal order.

"Superba has a huge impact on this world, and the citizens, out of fear of him, probably can't say anything of value."

"However, according to the information I got from the news, Superpower just put the moon back into the correct orbit yesterday, which means he's probably still in his building. I might as well go and see him."

Superman decided to go directly to see Karl, as it was the most convenient and quickest way for him. When someone possesses overwhelming power, resorting to underhanded tactics is far less efficient than simply charging in directly.

The location of the Superpower Building is easy to find; it's the most eye-catching building in the entire city.

When Superman arrived, the doors opened automatically. Just as the Hall of Justice mistook Carl for Superman, the building's management system also identified Superman as Carl.

"Strange, there seems to be no one here."

Superman entered the first floor, but it was empty and there was no sign of life. He then used his X-ray vision to briefly observe the floors above, but there was no one there either.

"Did I come at the wrong time? The owner of this place doesn't seem to be here," Superman muttered to himself.

Since the person wasn't there, there was no way to ask. Superman was about to leave when he heard a silvery laugh.

"There's a sound, someone's here." Superman no longer suppressed his hearing and listened intently to pinpoint the source of the sound.

"It's not upstairs...it's underground, and there's more space underground!" Superman scanned the surroundings with his X-ray vision and quickly discovered the mechanism leading to the underground base.

Carl didn't install lead in his house to hinder his habit, so Superman's eyesight wasn't restricted at all. He could even see the location of the underground base and crawl down. However, Superman didn't want to cause too much damage, so he chose to take the elevator instead.

The identity verification process at the elevator entrance was much more complex than that at the main gate, but it was still too rigid to recognize Superman's differences. They quickly granted him full access and let him into the underground base.

Superman went underground and headed straight for the location from which the laughter was coming, which was the area where the laboratory was located.

The person still here now is naturally Möbius.

In the laboratory, Möbius used a yellow light ring to create experimental equipment, which greatly accelerated her research speed, and she couldn't help but laugh out loud when she got the results.

After obtaining the bone spikes of Doomsday, Möbius developed Doomsday spores in less than an hour. That was not difficult at all; on the contrary, it was quite easy. In fact, it was more difficult to prevent the Doomsday spores from being produced after giving them sufficient stimulation.

In the time that followed, she studied the spores tirelessly, and finally made some progress, so she could take a break. Although her modified body did not need rest, allowing her mind to relax properly would be more helpful for her work.

The laboratory door opened automatically, and Mebius floated out on a suitcase, soon coming face to face with Superman.

"Oh, Karl, you're back so fast! What were you doing?" Möbius asked when he saw the visitor.

Superman didn't respond immediately; he wasn't quite sure what to say to a child who had appeared in the underground base.

At this moment, Möbius noticed the symbol on his chest: "Hmm? Why did you change it to an 'S' symbol again? Did you just come back and haven't changed it yet?"

"Uh..." The other party was clearly an acquaintance of Superman. Under such circumstances, impersonating him seemed like a good idea, but Superman didn't really want to fool a child.

“No, wait.” Mebius finally noticed something was wrong: “You’re the real Superman, aren’t you?”

Although the two hadn't known each other for very long, Mebius had seen three different sides of Calga's personality, including his true nature, and none of them had ever behaved this way during their interactions.

Superman was actually relieved to be recognized, because then he wouldn't have to worry about whether or not to lie.

“That’s right, little sister, I am Superman. What’s your name? You seem to know me, right?” Superman said.

"Little sister?"

Mebius decided to make his voice sound even more childish: "Well, big brother, Mebius has heard of you. You're a good guy who beats up bad guys."

Superman sensed something was off, but didn't think much of it and continued, "Yes, I'm a good person, so Mebius, can you tell me why you're here?"

“Big brother, what you’re saying is strange. This is my home, and I like to do fun things here,” Möbius said.

"Your home?" Superman asked. "But I heard this should be Superman's territory. Where is he?"

Mebius really didn't know this. She was engrossed in her experiments at the time and only knew that Karl said he was going to leave for a while, but she didn't ask where he was going or what he was going to do.

"I don't know, big brother, why don't you stay here for a cup of tea and do something fun? Maybe he'll be back soon."

"No need for tea, could you tell me what kind of person Superba is?"

Superman posed the question, but then realized it might be a bit complicated for a child, so he added, "Or tell me about your relationship with Superman, and how he treats you?"

“He’s very good to me, he’s given me a lot of gifts, and I like him very much,” Möbius replied with a smile.

Chapter 180 Exposure

Mebius didn't know which universe Superman came from, nor what Superman's purpose was, but since the other party was inquiring about Carl, it meant that his goal was related to that.

However, Carl hasn't returned yet. If it were the original Earth 3, they would definitely be fighting the Justice League. But the situation is different now. To avoid any difference between his decision and Carl's, Mebius decided to try to keep the other side calm and buy time.

"Big brother, why are you asking this?"

"Oh, it's nothing." Superman asked with a slightly strange expression, "He didn't do anything suspicious when he gave you the gift, did he?"

Möbius feigned ignorance, saying, "What are you talking about, big brother? I don't understand."

"That's true, how could a child understand this?" Superman thought to himself, suppressing his doubts for the time being.

Superman said, "If you don't understand, that's fine. By the way, you said this is your house, so do you know what this huge basement is used for?"

He could certainly search the place directly, but if he wandered around without confirming that the other party was indeed guilty, it would be considered an invasion of privacy.

Although his actions were essentially trespassing from the moment he entered, Superman wouldn't arbitrarily investigate Mebius's home in front of the children now that he'd encountered her.

“This is a fun place, I like doing interesting things here.” Möbius continued to play dumb, revealing no information.

Superman tried to get answers from several different angles, but no matter what he did, he couldn't get any valuable answers. Möbius, taking advantage of being mistaken for a child, used his childish privileges, either pretending not to understand or simply saying he didn't know. Superman was at his wits' end and finally had to give up and turn to leave.

But Mebius stopped Superman, and he stopped asking questions, so it was Mebius's turn.

"Big brother, I heard from Karl that you and your friends live in a very, very far place, so what brings you here, big brother?"

"We won't do anything, we'll just help good people and punish bad people," Superman replied, trying to use language that even a child could understand.

"Can you take me to meet your friends? I'm so curious."

"Um, well..."

"Please! Just a little while, it'll be over soon!"

Mebius looked up at Superman with starry eyes.

Ever since being fooled by Karl's identity, Mebius has become concerned about the versions of the characters. She wants to know which version of the Justice League this is, because if it's the normal version, it's probably going to be bad.

In Earth-3, villains are in power, and a normal Justice League will definitely fight against them, thus triggering a war that will affect the entire world. Even if it's not normal, it won't work. The fact that the other side can block the grid's surveillance clearly means they came prepared. Keeping a group of people comparable to gods in the shadows is definitely not a good thing.

Before Karl returns, Mebius needs to figure out the opponent's version and try to delay the possible big battle.

Superman was so persistent that he couldn't persuade the other party to give up, so he had no choice but to say, "It's a deal then. You'll only stay for a little while, and then I'll send you back."

Mebius nodded quickly, saying he would talk about it when they arrived.

So Superman took Mebius to an abandoned chemical plant in Gotham City.

Although the agreed-upon meeting time was 24 hours later, six hours later, several alliance members have already chosen to return.

When Superman landed, Wonder Woman and Hal the Green Lantern (who didn't have a Green Lantern) also arrived back around the same time.

“Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, how come you’re back so soon?” Superman asked.

Hal said, "Because we've seen enough, Quan Jie is just as cowardly as I thought, and the city is as terrible as Gotham in our world."

Hal refers to the crime rate. The Ring Keepers, following Karl's orders, suppress all the superpowered individuals in the Seaside City who dare to cause trouble, but they don't care at all about ordinary robberies and thefts.

Wonder Woman was about to talk about her experiences on Paradise Island when she saw Mebius.

"Superman, where did you find this little girl? She's so cute."

Superman replied, "She's in Superpower's building. Her name is Mebius. She's close to Superpower and keeps asking to come and see for herself."

Wonder Woman crouched down in front of Mebius, and before she could even speak, she heard him greet her warmly.

"Hello, big sister," Mebius said, waving.

"Hmm, so good." If Mebius hadn't been wearing a crown, she would have really wanted to pat the other's head. But cute as she was, the other clearly shouldn't be in a place like this.

“Mebius, you’ve met our friends, you can go back now,” Superman said.

"No, I haven't even seen Batman yet." Mebius acted like a spoiled fan, and a little bit of spoiled behavior is a child's right.

Just as the alliance members were considering whether to forcibly send the other party back, their signal-blocking bracelets suddenly received a communication from Batman.

A hurried voice came through: "The factory is under surveillance. Get out of there. You've been discovered. I'll notify the Flash."

Gotham City is a city without any superpowered individuals. The only other city that can do this is Metropolis, and that is without counting Cal.

Physically, Night Owl is just an ordinary person. To maintain this state in the long term, he must have an extremely high degree of control over the city. With the help of the grid, he conducts a comprehensive scan of the city every two weeks using the space probe tower.

Most devices cannot block this kind of scanning, which is why the Joker's hideout is so rudimentary, as it needs to be replaced every once in a while.

Now, the night owl, sensing something amiss due to the moon's changes, has preemptively scanned the city.

The Joker knew the warning signs of the scan, and Batman upgraded his equipment in time to avoid it, but all the other League members were detected.

Batman connected to the Flash's bracelet and informed him: "Superman and the others have been discovered. Just to be safe, don't go to meet them for the time being."

"Uh..." The Flash glanced at the people sitting across the table and said, "Maybe, perhaps I'll be exposed even faster than them?"

At that moment, Johnny Quick was also communicating with others using his metal prosthetic leg; it was Night Owl calling.

"Suspicious outsiders have appeared in Gotham City, suspected to be clones of League members. Use your speed to stop them."

"..." Johnny Express did not respond immediately.

This eerie silence clearly indicated that something unexpected had happened.

Night Owl was silent for a moment, then said, "Let me guess, you've made contact with an outsider, but you're afraid he'll take your place, so you haven't reported it?"

"How did you know?"

"This is none of your business. Now get on with your mission!"
