Chapter 408: Doomsday Clock? Dr. Manhattan? (First update, please subscribe!)

~7 min read 1,255 words

Although the battle between General Zod and Clark Kent didn't fight to the death in Metropolis like in the movie, making the whole city know about it.

But the military, the White House, the Pentagon, and many other departments and forces had been paying attention to the battle situation. As soon as the battle ended, the people they had arranged in advance arrived at the uninhabited battlefield.

The war is over, we won!

What next?

It must be to reap the benefits!

Who would be willing to give up political capital like 'defeating aliens and defending Earth', which is rare in a hundred years?

Not to mention the alien corpses and spaceships that have great research value. If alien technology can really be developed or the genetic secrets of aliens can be cracked, the benefits are countless for both individuals and countries.

Su Quan couldn't be bothered to deal with these politicians. He had already shown sufficiently powerful strength. As long as you don't provoke me and don't affect my interests, you can fight internally however you want, and grab however you want.

According to the conditions previously discussed with Martian Manhunter, General Zod's spaceship, himself, and the corpses of two other Kryptonians were left behind.

Oh, the equipment in the spaceship that can transform the planetary environment was sent to the Void Manor by Clark Kent.

That is the base camp of the Superman Legion. For one, it is absolutely safe, and for another, it can also let scientists study it.

The Birds of Prey escorted Faora and the other four Kryptonians back to Arkham Asylum in the Quinjet.

Su Quan brought Louise Lane out of the Mirror Dimension and then returned together to the idle office of the Daily Planet.

"I'll go edit the news first. The front-page news of this incident must be mine!"

"I'll accompany you later!"

"By the way, don't forget you promised to let Clark Kent accept my exclusive interview, and also, you said before that you would let me interview General Zod. He is dead now, but replacing him with Faora is also fine."

Louise Lane said a few words to Su Quan in a rush and then couldn't wait to turn around and run out of the office.

"Ring ring ring—"

The phone rang; it was Martian Manhunter calling.

After connecting, Martian Manhunter couldn't help but say: "You just left like this? The aftermath might still need you and Clark Kent."

Su Quan sneered and said bluntly: "Tell those people, mine is mine, don't touch, don't poke, don't grab, understand? I gave you face by leaving the spaceship and the corpses. If they are still not satisfied, then don't blame me for not being polite!"

"Really, giving too many smiles just breeds all kinds of illnesses."

"If they want to die, I'll fulfill them."

"Don't be angry yet, things haven't reached that point," Martian Manhunter advised.

Su Quan smiled: "I'm not angry. A guy who can be pinched to death with a single thought isn't worth me getting angry over, it's just that I have more interesting things now, so I can't be bothered to deal with them."

"More interesting things? What is it?" Martian Manhunter asked curiously.

Su Quan thought for a while and said: "I felt a peeping from a higher level."

"It's not that the level is higher than mine, but this method is very interesting, and I am very interested."

"Peeping from a higher level?" Martian Manhunter was stunned and couldn't quite understand.

Su Quan explained simply: "Outside the reality material universe, it could be from Heaven, or it could be from Earth, or the multiverse, or even outside the multiverse."

"I haven't determined who it is yet."

Martian Manhunter was silent for a moment and said: "I haven't found any abnormalities, but if you need my help, just ask."

"Okay."

After hanging up the phone, Su Quan used the Void Battle Bead to contact Atlanna, asking her to mobilize the power of Atlantis and the Aquaman Legion to search for Kryptonite in various sea areas.

Afterward, he contacted Diana and El-Kal, also asking them to search for and acquire Kryptonite.

When General Zod's spaceship entered Earth, some Kryptonite must have been left behind. Besides that, when Clark Kent came to Earth, his spaceship must have carried Kryptonite as well. It's just that he hadn't specifically looked for it before, so it's just right to look for it all together this time.

Su Quan hadn't looked for it before because it wasn't necessary. In the movie, Kryptonite was basically obtained by Batman and Lex Lu Se.

Especially Lex Lu Se, he is like Superman's 'Joker'. The two love and kill each other, destined for a lifetime.

Under normal circumstances, Lex Lu Se and Clark Kent are fellow villagers, classmates, and friends with deep friendship. Then Clark Kent's identity is exposed, and Lex Lu Se turns love into hate, determined to defeat 'Superman'.

Or after 'Superman' debuts, Lex Lu Se, this Earth humanist, views him as the greatest threat and starts trying every possible way to defeat him and kill him.

No matter which one it is, Lex Lu Se collecting Kryptonite is based on knowing Superman or Superman having already debuted. The current Lex Lu Se doesn't know Superman at all, let alone have any grudges.

Of course, after Louise Lane's news is published, I'm afraid there will be, because Lex Lu Se is actually the same kind of person as Bruce Wayne: smart, rich, arrogant, and won't easily trust anyone, let alone an alien who can easily destroy Earth and destroy humanity.

With Su Quan's current forces, and searching for Kryptonite one step ahead, if it's still found by Lex Lu Se in the end, hehe, then it can be 100% determined that there is a problem!

There must be some big shot preparing to cause a big event around Superman!

As for Kryptonite itself, Su Quan really doesn't care. If he really needs it, he can completely go to other universes to collect it. Kryptonite isn't an Infinity Stone; it doesn't stop working across universes!

Su Quan leaned back in his chair, put his legs on the desk, and narrowed his eyes slightly, recalling big events related to Superman.

There are many versions of Superman due to various restarts of the multiverse, and there are quite a few big events about Superman, but considering various factors, Superman's big events are somewhat inferior to Batman and The Flash in terms of popularity, fame, and influence.

Batman's Metal and The Flash's Flashpoint are very high in influence and fame. On the contrary, Superman's big event, just from Su Quan's perspective, is The Death of Superman.

But this big event doesn't seem to match the current situation, so—

Wait!

Su Quan sat up straight with a jerk.

He suddenly thought of a big event related to Superman that fits the current situation very well!

Doomsday Clock!

Why did Su Quan think of this big event? Because in this big event, Superman is the core of the multiverse, and his changes will greatly influence the universe, and even the multiverse!

This is one aspect!

There is another more important reason, which is that the 'villain' of this big event is Dr. Manhattan.

That's right, it's that Dr. Manhattan from the Watchmen universe.

With Dr. Manhattan's abilities, if he were peeping at him, the method would probably be the same as what he guessed before!

It's a method from a higher level! ===== CHAPTER 410 =====
