The Knights of the DC House
Chapter 14 Justice League: The Kingdom Comes
When Superman told all the cameras his true name, identity and the problem he was facing at the moment, the United Nations hall fell into silence. At the same time, there was silence in the global audience who were watching the live broadcast. This silence continued.
After half a minute, the first people to make a noise were the representatives of member states and the media in the United Nations hall. The only ones who could remain calm for the time being were the US representatives who had been angered by the president in advance.
Even though he was mentally prepared, the American representative didn't look very good at this time. After working for so many years, he thought he had seen all kinds of big storms, but this time, he had to say that he was an expert. What the hell is this?
I’ve never seen that before!
The next thing that exploded was the Internet forums in various countries. At this time, whether on YouTube, Facebook, INS, Weibo, Tieba, these social networking sites with the largest number of users, countless messages were flooded under the video of Superman's live broadcast.
.
[Hype? This must be hype, Superman is going to die?!]
[Isn’t anyone paying attention to his true identity? Clark Joseph Kent, a front-line reporter for the Daily Planet, just got married, and I heard that he has a child. Is this child superhuman or not? 】
[Are my concerns different? I have a friend who is engaged in biology. It stands to reason that as an alien with such a strong power, it would be difficult for Superman to combine with earthlings to produce offspring.
Reproductive isolation, how was this child born?】
[Support the above, but I’m more curious. Superman is so strong. I also have a friend who majors in physics. Based on Superman’s past performance, well, he is very curious as to why he didn’t kill anyone, literally.]
'It's a tricky angle, but shouldn't we be more concerned about why Superman said he was going to die? Such a powerful god will also die?'
'Pay attention to your wording upstairs! He is a human, not a god. Humans are bound to die. Now we should be more concerned about how to save Superman!'
'That's right! I also noticed that Superman just jumped out of the plane, not flew down. He no longer has the ability to fly!'
······
Since Superman revealed his identity, the topic on the entire Internet and in reality has remained hot and has been breaking through the topic popularity. For the website operators, they are laughing from ear to ear at this moment, and for the IT workers who maintain the website operation
For example, at this moment they just want to make crazy complaints about Superman who is still giving a speech. We have no problem with you revealing your identity. At least let the government say hello to us. This time we are really going to die suddenly at work!
For the IT workers who were frantically greeting him in front of the server, Superman, who did not have super hearing, was happy to be quiet. He just stood there, facing the media from various countries, and for the first time he stood in front of the world and revealed his identity.
After telling the story, he finally understood the meaning of the words "people's words are fearful". Just by telling his true identity and the fact that he was going to die, no one from the media workers to the ambassadors of these countries looked normal.
of.
"Superman, can you take responsibility for what you said!"
"Kal-El, Clark Joseph Kent, why did you choose this time to reveal your true identity?"
"So, what is the reason for your approaching death? What do you plan to entrust to the earth?"
As media workers who speak for the country, these people also represent the face of their country to a certain extent. In their opinion, Superman's true identity does not need to be concerned. No one will care about the life and death of a small-town boy from Kansas.
, what they focus on is the value of Superman, the strongest superhero in the world. At the same time, he also comes from a powerful civilization in the universe and is the orphan of this destroyed civilization.
Crossing a distance of tens of millions of light-years to come to Earth, the technological means used to send Superman as a baby to Earth cannot be cracked by current Earth technology. After the Apokolips invasion war, with the help of the technology left behind by Apokolips
Wreckage, the earth has indeed improved its level of black technology, but that is only in certain fields, such as military industry, from destroying human beings on the surface dozens of times to being able to blow up the earth altogether.
As for people's livelihood, there is still not much change. God knows why the earth's technology tree always skews to some weird places. No one can answer this question. They are only paying attention to Superman's revelation of his identity this time, and
Tell the reason why their death is imminent, and as the mainstream media in their country, they just want to use this identity to learn more about Superman and see if they can benefit their country from it and let their country move forward.
Take a step.
It can be said that at this time, they are spies thrown out by the United Nations member states, and the representatives of the five permanent members can only sit there, saying nothing, watching how Superman responds. This is politics. In the White House, the current president also
Watching the live broadcast there, he frowned. Although he wanted Superman to be elected as the next president, it was so that this country could still be in the first position in future international competition. This was his role as a national leader.
selfishness.
This kind of selfishness is understandable. Superman was born in this country and has accepted the fact that he is an American since he was a child. Although in terms of life, his adoptive parents taught him how to be a kind person with his own judgment.
As a politician and national leader, he is a realist. He chose Superman as his next president. In the eyes of many people, it was a completely lunatic move on his part.
Because the construction of a country does not require the leadership of an idealist like Superman, many things are not as simple as they appear on the surface. Letting Superman be the president will only make some things difficult to deal with. But the current president also understands that,
It is true that Superman is an idealist, but Superman has the powerful power to turn ideals into reality. Let Superman sit in his position. No matter what the final result is, at least when Superman protects his country, he will do something that he rejects but
Something that had to be done.
But what he didn't expect was that Superman was going to die. What he expected was a powerful and perfect Superman to lead the country, not a Superman who had lost his power and was about to die. The difference between the two.
Much more.
"Damn it, I was tricked. No wonder he showed up with Batman that day." Sitting there, thinking back to the time not long ago when Superman and Batman appeared in his office directly through the vacuum bullet train under the White House.
While having a secret conversation with himself, Mr. President also rubbed his brows.
I was still wondering why Superman agreed so readily after returning from his honeymoon. It was because he understood that there was something wrong with his body and was ready to experience life in another way. I didn’t expect that even Superman with thick eyebrows would
All the honest people with big eyes followed Batman to fool him, and next to Mr. President was Amanda Waller, the first leader of the Sky Eye Society, this iron lady who didn’t mind getting her hands dirty for the sake of the country.
After noticing Mr. President's expression, he also stepped forward.
"Mr. President, do you need me to interrupt this speech?" Amanda Waller, who had a black face and a black heart, suggested there. Among the troops used to maintain order in the United Nations hall, there must be agents of the Sky Eye Society. These agents don't mind.
Guest appearance as a terrorist.
"Calm down Amanda, I don't have a headache because Superman did something to me. On the contrary, you have to maintain order." As soon as he saw Amanda making a downward cutting action, Mr. President couldn't help but feel dizzy, because he knew that Aman
Da must dare to do this and quickly stopped him.
"Why?"
"Because I also want to see what Superman is going to say and what he is going to do. Although it is difficult for idealists to move forward in this real society. But sometimes, it is the illusory ideal that supports us moving forward. Let us see
Come on."
In the live broadcast, Superman and Batman just stood there, listening to the constant questions from the media in these countries, and then looked at the five biggest speakers in the United Nations. They are the main body of the United Nations. They did not speak.
The questions from the media of these countries are basically meaningless to answer. The representatives of the Five Permanent Representatives are also sitting on the Diaoyutai at this time. After the representatives of the media of these member countries have asked about it, the country with the largest population and the largest base of superpowers in the world
The representative of talent has spoken.
"So Superman, before that, we only have one question to ask, why do you say that your death is imminent? Is this caused by yourself, or is it because of a certain enemy? Is that enemy the one that happened a month ago?
It has something to do with the battle in Central City, and the giant."
"You've grasped the point, sir, that's what I'm going to say." Someone suggested something, and Superman could continue his speech, "As everyone knows, I come from the depths of the universe, an orphan of the extinct Kryptonian civilization. I'm just
I am a refugee from the planet. My parents sent me here before the planet was destroyed. They did this for a reason."
"Well, please tell me why, Superman, no, I think I should call you Clark now."
The questions and answers with the national representative also made the entire United Nations venue quiet. In the Titan Building, where the members of the Justice League lived, everyone was watching the speech about Superman, including the general at this time.
Savage, whose base camp is hidden in the subspace dimension, and his allies are also watching all this.
"My planet is called Krypton, and my people can actually be called humans, because our body structure is no different from that of people on Earth. The only difference is that the gravity environment of my former planet is twice as heavy as that of Earth.
Ten times, when we grow up in such an environment, our physical fitness will be better than that of ordinary people. But the biggest reason why my parents sent me here is because my body and my cells can absorb under the irradiation of the yellow sun.
Its radiation has made me grow in all aspects, so I have become the Superman you see now, the so-called God on Earth. To be honest, I quite hate this title."
"So, from the beginning, your parents planned for you to rule the earth?"
The representative of the United States also spoke. While saying this, he looked at the representative of the red country unhappily. He was doing the wrong thing, and he could only be the wrong one.
"No, there is only one reason why they sent me to Earth. They don't want the tragedy that happened on my planet to happen again on Earth!"
As soon as the words came out, the entire venue was in an uproar. The same excitement was also seen on major social networking sites and forums. Because Superman had already said that his planet was destroyed before, and now he said that the reason why he was sent to the earth by his parents was to prevent the earth from being destroyed.
Becoming the second Krypton, does this mean that the countdown to the destruction of the earth is on? Well, in the face of such a crisis, everyone is a logician.
"Watch your words, Mr. Clark, you are live broadcasting around the world now!"
The U.S. representative, who was once again unhappy about being made a fool of, played his role very well and questioned Superman there.
After glancing at the American representative, Superman turned his head and looked at Batman behind him. The unsmiling Batman just nodded to Superman. In the Titan Building, Wally from the old 52 watched everything that happened in the video.
, and also fell into confusion, because history has changed. These had never happened in the old universe where he lived. Looking at Ke Wen sitting on the sofa beside him, Wally also asked.
"This is what you're going to do? Damn it, you know what's going to happen! This could trigger a new reboot!"
"I know, but also, as Jay Garrick told you, the power he entrusted to me is to start a future that will no longer repeat itself. So now, this is what I am trying. I don't want to
The tragedy that happened to you will happen again in this new universe, so watch, the chapter of this turbulent new era is now unfolding in front of you."
At the venue, Superman was still standing there. After being asked by the two representatives of the five permanent members, he told all the cameras pointed at him the truth about his former home planet and the truth that his biological father told him.
"My former planet, Krypton, was a powerful civilization with traces of colonial expansion all over the universe. It was very powerful, but at the same time, it was also very fragile, because everyone was limited in the future from birth, and farmers' sons could only
Whether they are farmers or descendants of rulers, they are still rulers. We have lost the right to freely choose our own future, and this is happening on our planet. The children of criminals will be looked down upon as they grow up.
They will be labeled and treated unfairly.
Even if they work hard to prove themselves, there will always be people who choose to add insult to injury and distort their character. In the end, they become the person they least want to be. I can see it and I can hear it. All the abilities given to me by the yellow sun have made me
Every time I fly into space and overlook the planet where I grew up, I can see that my planet is falling apart and fighting for resources. Each of us knows what is happening on this planet, but we
They didn’t make changes, they just let it happen.”
"Then why don't you stop this, Clark."
At this time, only one person who could ask why could allow all this to continue. After glancing at the representative of the red country, Superman continued.
"Yes, I can stop all this, because I have this power. I can win all wars on behalf of the earth. I can also use my own power to stop all wars and build this planet according to my most ideal way. This planet has raised me up."
A big planet. But then, as one of my friends said to me, why don't I put the Earth in a bottle? That makes me sound like a lesser supervillain."
The self-deprecating statement made the very serious venue a bit humorous, and also made the people listening to Superman's story on the screen and in the venue couldn't help laughing. For a while, the air was filled with a happy atmosphere. At the same time, Superman's statement also
It invisibly shortened the distance between him and people, and also made people listening to Superman begin to think about the meaning of his words.
"Yes, this idea has always existed in my mind. I can't forget it or leave it behind, especially when I have such a powerful power, especially after I have seen too many tragedies. Maybe there are
Then one day, I will do this, and by then, I will have become the kind of person I hate the most. But, this time, I have the opportunity to choose my death again.
The war that happened a month ago on the outskirts of Central City was a war launched by Apokolips against the Justice League that protects the earth. We won. But my body, every cell in my body, was affected.
The erosion of the power of Apokolips. My power comes from our sun. Every time I absorb a bit of sunlight, the power of Apokolips will erode me until it kills me completely.
My friends, Batman and Lex Luthor, two of the smartest men in the world, thought that in the end, the only solution was for me to give up my Superman powers and become Clark Kent. At first, it was difficult for me.
I accept that because I have lost my power, it means that I cannot protect the people I want to protect and the planet I want to protect. But in this way, wouldn’t I become the guy who wants to put the earth in a bottle?
So I suddenly understood that maybe this was a chance God gave me to make a new choice, so that I could abandon those crazy ideas and fight for my world as a human being. Of course, this does not mean that I will completely
Losing superhuman power is just that I cannot use it as I wish. When the earth encounters an unstoppable crisis, I can still use it at the cost of my life, but I will not regret it, because it is for
My planet to fight for!”
The words are shocking. At this moment, everyone in the world, whether they like Superman or hate Superman, understands one thing. Superman is no longer the omnipotent god on earth. Every crisis on the earth in the future will
Appearing will consume Superman's life, and when Superman dies completely, they will have no protective umbrella. At that time, no one can protect them anymore.
The national leaders who thought of this also gave up some of their little thoughts at this time and looked at each other. Obviously, there is no fool who can sit in this position. They all understand the reason why they are still here to intrigue each other.
, because of the existence of the Justice League, and the most powerful among the Justice League is Superman. Without Superman, the combat power of the Justice League will be reduced by half.
Can such a Justice League still win those battles that they as ordinary people cannot win? At this moment, an inexplicable sense of urgency surged from their hearts. They seemed to have seen the reappearance of the Apokolips invasion war.
Only this time, there is no Superman and no Justice League.
"So, the purpose of your speech this time is to tell us that you can no longer protect the earth as Superman, Clark?"
"No, on the contrary, this is a conversation. Before I made this decision, Batman once advised me, because I am an outsider, no matter what I do, I am an outsider. But on the contrary, I was born in
Krypton, growing up on Earth, I am a child of two worlds. My hometown has been destroyed, but this fragile and beautiful blue planet is my second home.
I can see my adopted homeland following in its footsteps, and I can see time reminding me that our time on earth is numbered. I don’t want to see greedy, selfish people rule us, and I have no time to waste listening to ignorant people.
We have no time to waste fighting each other in our spiel. There is a far more important battle, the fight for our survival. I am Clark Kent now. I can't do this alone, but I can help.
, with my life, I believe that those who are here at this moment, listening to all this in front of the screen, can still save our world, but I need your support, because I will participate in the next US presidential election.
Choose, as Clark Kent."
After the last words were spoken, the entire venue fell silent. I originally thought that Superman's revelation of his identity and his imminent death was breaking news, but I didn't expect that there would be something even more breaking. Superman announced at the United Nations that he would run for the next presidential election.
, and according to American law, anyone with American citizenship at birth can run for president. Although Superman is adopted, there is no problem with his birth certificate. From this point of view, he has the conditions to run for office.
.
No one was surprised by Superman's decision to run for president. On the contrary, the entire venue was silent. For a long time, the American representative applauded first, followed by the Chinese representative, the first and second representatives, and the entire venue applauded.
Like thunder.
After saying what he wanted to say, Superman also left the podium and walked towards the outside of the United Nations building with Batman. At this moment, the soldiers and media workers responsible for maintaining order also felt conscious at this moment.
The hero who sacrificed everything for the earth made way for a passage. When Superman and Batman walked toward the Batfighter listening in the center of the square, a reporter suddenly stopped the two of them.
"Mr. Clark, can I ask why Batman came with you?"
Hearing this, Superman and Batman turned their heads together and looked at the young reporter with the bat-surrounded-S logo printed on his T-shirt. The reporter looked at his best partner in the world with a look of fascination.
"Because he's my best friend. What's your name, kid?"
"Parker, Peter Parker!"
"So, Peter, can you take a photo with him and me? I want to record this historic moment, and by the way, smile." With that said, before Batman could react, Superman hugged him.
At the same time, he stretched out his thumb and index finger on Batman's mouth, stretched it hard, and forced Batman to smile. For Superman, whose physical fitness is still twenty times higher than that of a human being at this time.
There was no problem at this time, especially before Batman could react. Then, the shutter sounded, recording this rare historical moment. Then Superman stood under Batman's gaze, with his hands behind his back,
Started whistling there.
Peter Parker, the young reporter who took the photo, also continued to ask: "Actually, I'm curious, do you think this dialogue is successful? Can our world be changed?"
"Of course, I firmly believe it."
"Why?"
"Because, I never fight alone, kid~"
In the sky, a sonic blast channel opened, and members of the Justice League also fell from the sky at this moment, including Wonder Woman, Lex Luthor, The Flash, Green Lantern, Martian Manhunter, Hawkman and Hawkgirl, Green Arrow, Doctor Destiny/Za'tar
La, Aquaman, also fell from the sky at this moment, as the backing of Superman and Batman.
This scene will always be remembered by people who witnessed the beginning of a new era. They call this day: the coming of the Kingdom of Heaven!
