Chapter 3512: The Study of Cats and Dogs (71)

~11 min read 2,130 words

J'onn wanted to continue to dissuade Lex, but at this time Lex asked a more astonishing question:

"Is this kind of mental shock effective against Kryptonians?"

J'onn immediately realized what he wanted to do. He thought carefully and said, "Although Kryptonians have super brains, they have no special protection against telepathic abilities. Otherwise, Malafak wouldn't have been able to cause such a big mess."

Lex knew that J'onn was referring to Malafak disturbing the mind of the Injustice Superman before, making him go crazy in Metropolis. Although the Injustice Superman's own mental state wasn't good at that time, Malafak wasn't as strong as J'onn either. If he could cause interference to Kryptonians, J'onn would naturally be even more so.

Lex speculated that J'onn could be considered relatively strong among Martians. Even so, the average level of Martians is not weak. The equipment they manufactured could definitely cause interference to Kryptonians.

"Drag Zod to Mars to fight?" Lex thought silently. "This plan is executable."

In fact, Zod's attack this time had completely failed before it even started. Because he didn't know at all that Earth had a magic defense network, and he mistakenly believed the inaccurate information Malafak brought from other universes, and then was stimulated by Bruce, losing his spaceship. This battle could be said to have no way to be fought.

But all intelligent life will fall into a trap, which is sunk cost. And the sunk cost that Zod cannot accept the most is that his spaceship is gone.

This can no longer be called a sunk cost. Without the spaceship, Zod has no way to be too far from the solar system. Crossing the universe with a physical body is still a bit too idealistic.

No matter how fast Kryptonians fly, without a faster-than-light engine, it would really be a monkey year and horse month before they reach the destination. Their physical strength also has an upper limit. If they encounter large-scale cosmic disasters, they will have to peel off a layer of skin even if they don't die.

So now, as long as Zod hasn't found his spaceship, he absolutely cannot leave. But without the spaceship, he has no way to attack head-on.

It would be fine in normal times; he could at most beat one Clark. But now there are three Supermen on Earth. He is beaten by six fists as soon as he shows his face; even Doomsday doesn't get this treatment, and he can't evolve infinitely like Doomsday, so naturally, he doesn't dare to show his head.

If he wants to use the kindness of Superman to kidnap some ordinary people to threaten him. But the one controlling Metropolis in this universe is Lex Luthor. Not to mention that his control over Metropolis is much stronger than the normal government, the key is that this guy is not a good person. You cannot threaten a person without moral bottom lines.

The weight of ordinary people is not enough; even if it can make Superman compromise, it cannot make Luthor compromise. If he wants to find someone with enough weight, he has to find that mysterious Professor.

However, if he goes to find the Professor himself, it will be troublesome if he is caught by Superman. So he can only choose to buy a killer.

But now the killer who bought the murder has also been stopped outside Gotham City. He is basically at his wit's end.

Now, Zod has been slow to leave because he wants to find the spaceship. If he could get his spaceship back, he would absolutely leave this land of sadness without looking back.

Zod can of course guess that the spaceship is either at Luthor Manor or the Luthor Group. But attacking these two places head-on is as stupid as attacking Earth; it can't be taken down at all. Showing his head means being killed in seconds.

But Lex also knows that Zod actually has more than one choice of getting his spaceship back. Because there is more than one Kryptonian spaceship on Earth.

Clark and Kara also came by spaceship. Zod knows this. Although their baby ships are definitely not as good as Zod's warship, now what needs to be solved is the problem of existence. Just get a flying vehicle that can be opened, who cares about so much.

And the reason Zod didn't do this is that he felt there was still hope of getting his spaceship back.

Then his hope is likely pinned on: humans got his spaceship, but can't open it, so they have to conduct research. Research means going to a professional research place. This spaceship must be transferred.

When the spaceship was transferred away last time, he wasn't at the scene. He doesn't believe there is a method to move the spaceship away under his nose. So he felt he could take the opportunity to snatch the spaceship back when it was transferred.

If there are no accidents, Zod should be busy watching Luthor Tower these days. Once there is any movement here, he will definitely take action.

If this is the case, they can actually manipulate Zod's actions. As long as Zod thinks the spaceship went somewhere, he will definitely put his target there. As long as a trap is set for him there, maybe he can be captured alive.

Lex Luthor wants to capture Zod alive, otherwise he wouldn't have played with him for so long here.

Every Luthor in every universe is about the same. They are both fearful and curious about the life form of Kryptonians. The Lex in this universe doesn't intend to slice Clark. But then again, if he could slice Zod, he wouldn't refuse either. The key is that Clark shouldn't stop him either.

Zod wants to get his spaceship back, and Lex wants to capture Zod alive; both have a certain fatal greed. Now it depends on who is more clever.

"Go upstairs, meeting," Lex said.

Everyone came to the conference room again. This time Lex sat in the main seat. He had already thought of the whole plan in his mind and told it to the members of the Justice League.

It must be admitted that Lex is naturally endowed with an evil wisdom. When calculating others, setting traps for others, or doing other bad things, his brain is exceptionally bright.

The "Mars Trap Plan" he proposed made everyone amazed.

Among them, human guardians like Oliver, Diana, and J'onn agreed to this plan because dragging such a dangerous alien to another planet to fight can avoid damage to Earth and better ensure the safety of ordinary people.

Hal is more interested in the legacy of Martians. He feels that Zod can be used to probe the reality of the Martian city. He feels that it can be transformed into a true Green Lantern Corps base in the solar system.

And Bruce, he very much agrees with Lex's "Zod Slicing Plan." And Clark is noncommittal about this.

Clark sat on one side of the table and saw the Superman on the opposite side winking at him frantically, asking him to stand up and refute. He pretended not to see it, and also pretended not to see Bruce's fiery gaze.

Superman had to clear his throat and said, "Although Zod is our enemy, is it still a bit too inhumane to slice him..."

"Are you sympathizing with him as a fellow Kryptonian?"

"Uh, I'm not..." Clark of course couldn't admit it. After all, Zod is an invader. Logically speaking, it is appropriate for the indigenous people to use any means to deal with invaders. This is what an evil invader deserves.

"Then you are standing from the human perspective, feeling that doing so is not good?"

Superman didn't expect that Lex didn't point out his self-contradiction, but was actually trying to understand him.

"I just think it's a bit cruel," Superman said. "We shouldn't slice anything. This is not good."

"Clark, 'slicing' is just a metaphor," Lex explained very patiently. "Actually, if you have a little knowledge of science, you should know that anyone who causes the death of a unique living experimental subject should go to hell."

"We care more about Zod's survival state than you do. Krypton has been destroyed, and Kryptonians are a rare species in the universe. Zod will also be the first and only living Kryptonian captured by humans in history; even if I were sliced, he wouldn't be sliced. Because if he's sliced, he's gone."

"We will conduct various experiments on him, but he will definitely be alive, and he will be living well. Only then can he cooperate with us to complete experimental tasks and conduct endless exploration. This is what scientists want, and it is what I want. Can you understand?"

Superman pursed his lips. He thought in his heart: It would be better if you didn't say it; I sympathize with Zod even more now. Slicing would at most hurt for a moment; being caught and experimented on is endless torture.

But what Lex said really had no flaws. Zod's act of invading Earth looks a bit evil, but it is actually very funny. It's a bit like a giant panda invading a human town. This is having stayed in the wild long enough and coming to mix for a job.

In the whole universe, Kryptonians are also considered a race with relatively strong physical and mental strength. There are races that want to catch them for research, even if it's just for collection.

But Zod is persistent, traveling thousands of miles to deliver takeout to humans. Superman didn't know for a moment whether he loved Earth or hated Earth.

Just as he was thinking, Lex looked at him again and said, "Of course, if you uphold the interstellar spirit and are willing to stay here to help us with experiments, then we can also consider letting Zod go..."

"That's still unnecessary," Superman shook his head quickly and said. "Zod is a resident of your universe, you have the final say."

"Can I participate in the experiment?" A voice came from the other side. Superman turned his head and saw it was the Injustice Batman.

Superman hurriedly tensed his muscles. Because he felt that once this was said, the Injustice Superman would definitely go crazy.

Isn't this clearly saying that you want to use Kryptonians for experiments so you know how to deal with him?

Who knew, the Injustice Superman just glanced at the Injustice Batman, and then had no reaction.

Now it was the Injustice Batman's turn to look at the Injustice Superman.

J'onn was really curious about the entanglement between the two, but he didn't want to read their memories without their consent. But now is obviously not the time to ask them.

Just when J'onn was curious, a data packet was suddenly transmitted over. He couldn't help but look at Charles on the side.

But soon, his attention was attracted by the content in the data packet. After reading it, J'onn couldn't help but sigh: "Truly a great drama full of misunderstandings and misses."

Lex's "Mars Trap Plan" was passed almost unanimously. So the next step is to perfect the plan and prepare for implementation.

Just at this time, Oliver looked at J'onn and asked: "J'onn, you can have a mental link with us, right?"

"Uh, if not necessary, I absolutely won't..."

"I mean, can you make us have a mental link with each other? Like forming a group that can communicate in real-time. Can you?"

"No," J'onn said. "I can have a mind link with each of you at the same time, but you cannot have a mind link with each other. Your brains don't have such organs, and the brainwaves don't have enough strength to maintain the link stability."

"In other words, you can be the relay station between us."

"Yes, if you have any information you want to pass to others, you can call my name directly in your brain, and after passing the information and data to me, I will pass it to him."

"Will this be too troublesome for you?"

"Didn't you invite me to join just for this?" J'onn smiled and said. "I said, mental ability is like an arm to Martians. Controlling your own arm doesn't require any extra energy. This is no difficulty for me."

J'onn was of course very confident. Because what he said was all facts. This is the unique ability of Martians. And among Martians, he is also quite excellent. He has always been proud of this.

But soon, he found that he was a bit too confident. The consequence of speaking too full is that he is suffering for the sake of face.
