Chapter 117 "Superman Training Plan"
Game login interface.
The Kryptonian AI shamefully gave a narration of the ending that could probably be considered a happy ending, and was so angry that it shut itself off, but still couldn't find the problem. Steel looked at it with pity outside the game, trying to infer the number of iterations of the self-checking program from the operating power of the heat sink, but he also couldn't figure out the key point: "How did Superman do it?"
Only Moses knew that the system relied on special means to deceive the AI's judgment. The cause and effect could not be explained to the outside world. The incident happened suddenly and there was a lack of preparation. Fortunately, the reduction in Sanity value prevented the alliance members from immediately asking Superman, leaving him enough time to make up... no, think about the explanation.
Facing Cyborg's question, Superman in the game patted his ears and calmly asked, "What did you say? I can't hear you clearly."
Green Light asked doubtfully, "Did he really not hear clearly?"
"After all, the sanity value has dropped by a quarter, so it's normal that the signal is not good." Barry was optimistic.
"What are you talking about? I can't see your faces clearly, and I can't make out your lips," Superman asked. "This is not the same as losing your super vision in the red solarium."
"You may be feeling shortsighted right now," Shazan speculated. "Can Kryptonians be shortsighted?"
"Right?" Steel Bone hesitated, "Mr. Kent usually wears glasses."
Superman heard this: "My glasses are Kryptonian technology."
He fumbled around his body and actually took out a pair of black-framed glasses and put them on, then raised his hand to adjust his hair. After the two combined, his originally handsome face suddenly became ordinary.
Suddenly, a dog barking was heard outside the game.
Little Krypton found this warehouse at some point. Everyone was busy with work and no one paid attention to it. The dog still held the leash in its mouth and skillfully used its paw to unlock the door. It wagged its tail and gave the game screen a loving bear hug. The virtual screen did not exist, so it was able to escape. Little Krypton fell to the ground and looked back in confusion, making a threatening sound in its throat.
"Oh," Superman turned to look at him, "it's time to walk the dog. How about you let Connor accompany you?"
As for Martha, she is old and an ordinary person, and is not suitable for such overly strenuous exercise.
In fact, the farm is very large, and it is not necessary to take dogs out to exercise at a fixed time like in cities. It’s just that Xiao Ke likes to play with people, and once he is away from people for too long, he will come over and be close to them.
Little Krypton sat on the ground with his tail hanging down, looking up, holding the leash in his mouth and looking at the humans present with his big, innocent eyes.
"…Connor must have left it there on purpose."
Superman was helpless and squatted on the ground to reason with it: "I can't go out now, you need to wait a while."
The white dog's eyes were fixed on the game console placed on the table.
After a few seconds, its eyes began to glow red.
"Fu——"
The curse was swallowed back by force. Aquaman, who was still watching with interest a second ago, jumped up and dodged the attack range of the thermal vision. "What kind of dog should be raised by what kind of person?"
Diana threw out the rope, rolled up the game console and threw it into the air.
Xiao Krypton took off from the spot and rushed towards the game console.
Krypton AI: Oh shit!
It was still running a self-check program, defending its borders against external attacks, and was literally being attacked from both sides!
Why should an AI bear this?
In fact, with Krypton's technological level, even an ordinary game console in Taiwan has built-in defense systems to prevent cats and dogs in pet households from using the corners as chew sticks.
But who among Kryptonians could have imagined that this dog could have heat vision and fly!
It's like a military exercise scene, facing real guns and live ammunition and a confrontation between the navy, army and air force!
But whose gaming machine was brought to the battlefield?
In the critical moment, the AI that had been strengthened by magic burst out with an unprecedented desire to survive. It removed two screws and assembled the heat dissipation device inside the chassis into a pair of propellers, narrowly avoiding the sharp canine teeth.
This caused it to roll off the table and almost break itself into eight pieces. Fortunately, the propeller supported it at the critical moment, allowing it to stop falling and slowly rise.
The result is that the temperature inside the chassis rises rapidly, and the heat can be felt from five or six meters away.
Shazan's pupils trembled: "Will Superman get airsick?!"
Superman on the screen was flying in the air. Facing the dizzying surroundings, he said calmly, "It's OK, but I'm not sure if I can get out if it really breaks."
Shazan then flew up as well, hugged the dog by the waist and said, "Calm down, brother, I will treat you to a meal after this."
Xiao Krypton: "Woof woof woof!!"
"Stop scolding me, stop scolding me. You are still young. How can a child scold others?" Shazan held Chaogou's neck with one hand. "Or I can take you out for a walk now. What do you like to eat?"
He used his other hand behind his back to make an okay gesture to the rest of the people.
The Kryptonian AI finally trembled as it moved the game console back onto the table.
But it twisted the propellers and found that because the modification was too rough, the two fans that were mainly responsible for cooling could not be retracted.
“…”
Superman said to it in the game: "Don't run the code anymore. The warehouse may catch fire easily."
Garbage Superman! Garbage Kansas! Garbage Farm!
AI cursed in its heart and stopped the self-checking program in frustration.
If it really catches fire, the most serious problem is that it will be destroyed instead of injured.
Clark was still wearing his glasses, pushing the frames on his nose and shrugged.
Thanks to the game machine, the atmosphere in the warehouse is now full of joy, and the previous heaviness and sadness are intentionally or unintentionally forgotten. Although Superman's colleagues already know his true identity, they all find this scene very interesting. But when they try to instruct the League Chairman wearing Clark's face and Superman's uniform to make another change to his outfit, the Metropolis hero can't hear what they say again.
Kryptonian AI: One Hundred Wonderful Uses of Sanity?!
It was so angry that it wanted to borrow the code from the dress-up game next door and give Superman a hundred different uniforms so that he couldn't pass the level without enough points.
Then the probability of Superman getting stuck might be even higher than it is now.
On the sunny grassland, a huge wardrobe fell from the sky without warning, beyond everyone's expectation. Superman dodged when he heard the noise, but the surface area of the wardrobe was too large, and AI put in 120,000% of its energy, like a master Tetris player, and slammed the open side of the door on his head.
With a "bang", a hole was smashed in the cabinet door.
Countless clothes suddenly gushed out, burying the person inside before he could react.
“…”
Superman pushed open the closet and poked his head out from the pile of clothes with a confused expression. Then he raised his arm, swept the tie that fell on his head aside, and asked sincerely: "Is there something wrong with this game?"
As he spoke, he used his super speed to stuff some of the more, uh, homely clothes back into the closet. Barry, the only one who could keep up with his movements, had a flushed face, and it was unclear whether he was trying to hold back a smile.
Then there are piles of the same casual T-shirts and plaid shirts, plain, boring and real.
Then there is the plain suit, the only weapon of office workers.
Finally, there are several Superman uniforms in either black and white or colorful colors.
——"The Creation of Superman", the Kryptonian's closet.
"There are so many different colors of Superman uniforms?" Diana raised an eyebrow, "but I usually only see you wearing one."
"The universe is so diverse," Superman said truthfully. "There are many things I haven't seen before."
"There's a yellow and black one in there," the Green Lantern stroked his chin, "Why does it look so much like a Lantern Corps uniform?"
Superman felt guilty for a moment, knowing that Hal didn't know that other Supermen had worn the yellow lantern ring. He stuffed the uniform into the cabinet, kicked the cabinet door, and said seriously: "You are wrong."
"Why does the black cape behind him look like a modified version of Batman's cape?"
It's true. Which universe's Superman is so good at recycling? The Batman cape is very expensive.
"The one with the silver 'S' on the black background is more stylish, but it doesn't have a hood."
This looks very futuristic.
"There's also a white one, which is also nice, but it doesn't look as... passionate."
Indeed, the white hood and red 'S' make it look serious and cool.
"Am I seeing things? Why are there women's clothes in there?"
The sizes of men's clothes are slightly different from those of women's, so they are not very conspicuous when piled together. However, the colleagues who were watching the show clearly showed their talent for observing the slightest details and did not miss any suspicious points.
“…”
Finally, with his eyes twinkling in the physical sense, he said, "I prefer to believe that the Superman in a certain universe is a woman."
As a contemporary single young man staying at home, Mr. Clark Kent discovered halfway through stuffing his wardrobe with a hole in it that it could not withstand such a drastic change. Once it was piled to a certain height, whatever was put in would fall out.
He gave up.
"Let's start the next one quickly."
"Wait a moment."
Batman raised his hand to stop him.
"I need to ask the Avengers if there is any progress."
We mentioned before that the Avengers captured Black Adam and lifted the restrictions on entry and exit of the farm.
But who knows whether he planned all this alone?
If so, when did he develop such a deep hatred with Superman, and does he have any backup plan?
If not, who is he working with?
Now that nearly 24 hours have passed since the accident, the follow-up investigation may show good progress.
But Batman thought about it and did not contact S.H.I.E.L.D. or the Avengers. Instead, he walked aside and called Spider-Man - he did not use the system to talk privately in order to show his companions the credibility of the source of intelligence.
The establishment of the Young Justice League had been in preparation for a long time. About half a month ago, when the young heroes gathered together to get to know each other, Connor dragged Peter to attend a meeting. It was a mission assigned to them by Batman, so they were barely connected.
It's just that the Avengers don't seem to want their superheroes to become the reserve forces of the Justice League, and have used clichés to perfunctorily invite the Justice League countless times. Obviously, Shao Zheng has also contacted the Mutant School, but in the end, nothing came of it.
The gathering place was set at the Hall of Justice in Washington. Nightwing was relatively old and close to adulthood. There were also Kroy the Gunner, Connor, Damian in Robin's uniform, Wally the Lightning, and Aquaman. Red Hood didn't want to join in the fun, so Starfire went on a mission with him, which led to the team being more male than female. Batman even thought about letting Barbara and Zatanna make cameo appearances occasionally.
Or have Barbara contact her informant, the little girl named Cassandra Cain.
But this makes it seem like the number of bat people exceeds the limit!
Why can't the rest of the Alliance meet more girls? Bruce Wayne, the Gotham City playboy and adoptive father of the Sea King of Bludhaven, occasionally gets caught up in a mystery.
Or maybe we can contact Professor X without S.H.I.E.L.D. before. Brother Tan destroyed a large number of Hydra mutants' trading and transportation lines. Some of the children were still in contact with Jason. I wonder if we can mobilize them.
In short, he is worthy of being called the outstanding man and talented person.
Without talking about the dirty deal between adults, let’s talk about Shao Zheng’s side. Peter Parker’s age fits in perfectly, but his identity is rather awkward. He is regarded as an undercover sent by the Avengers by the children except Connor and Damian.
...It can be seen that the industry competition among the next generation of superheroes is gradually unfolding.
