As a time traveler who knows the plot and a powerful dimensional demon, Lin Zhongtian can regard the arrival of General Zod and the Kryptonians as an ordinary major event on Earth, but the humans in the situation obviously cannot be as calm and composed as him.
Humans are not the only intelligent race in the universe!
There has always been an alien living on Earth!
These two shocking pieces of news caused an uproar around the world.
Not only are top leaders of various countries communicating urgently to find the alien hiding on Earth, but the general public has also begun to take action.
Some people suspect that some of their neighbors who behave abnormally are aliens, so they report them to the police out of suspicion.
There were also some mentally ill guys who thought they were the alien, so they ran to the police station to surrender themselves to the police, and then seriously introduced their identities.
It was not until some doctors in white coats with a badge of a certain mental hospital on their chests ran into the police station sweating profusely and took away the patients who claimed to be aliens that the police calmly tore up the full page of minutes and watched them leave with a stern look on their faces.
Of course, whether reporting others or yourself, it takes time to identify their identities.
This has undoubtedly increased the workload of police departments around the world, making their search for real aliens increasingly inefficient.
At the same time, the technicians in charge of signal tracking in the Washington Military District finally made a new breakthrough.
They captured the source of the signal!
Of course, this is not because their signal tracking technology is so advanced, but because the other party has no hidden intentions at all.
Looking at the screen showing the source of the signal, everyone in the barracks fell silent.
Because it was an alien spaceship only 380,000 kilometers away from the Earth...
Three hundred and eighty thousand kilometers is exactly the distance between the earth and the moon.
In front of the screen, the white-haired doctor wearing black-framed glasses frowned and said solemnly: "General, this spacecraft has entered the synchronous orbit of the moon. At its current speed, it will probably only take ten minutes to reach the earth."
"Ten minutes, so fast?!"
The black general next to him, who was wearing an army uniform with many medals on his chest, couldn't help but frown.
The white-haired doctor shook his head and said, "This is already the most ideal situation. If this spaceship is equipped with a curvature engine or other more advanced technology, it is not impossible to reach the earth instantly."
“…”
Hearing this, the general's expression became even uglier.
After a little thought, he asked in a deep voice: "Dr. Hamilton, can we get in touch with these aliens?"
"I don't know either."
Dr. Hamilton sighed, looked at the strange-looking spaceship on the screen and said worriedly, "We have sent many messages to them, but they obviously have no intention of responding to us."
The general said decisively: "Then continue to send a message and tell them that we want to negotiate with them face to face!"
At this point, the general shook his head and sighed, "The Earth is too big, and 24 hours is too short. Unless the alien living on Earth surrenders himself, this will be an absolutely impossible task!"
…
…
The Batcave in Wayne Manor, Gotham City.
Bruce frowned and sat in front of a huge screen displaying various data, his ten fingers dancing on the keyboard like phantoms.
Behind him, the white-haired butler Alfred walked over with light steps, placed a cup of steaming coffee on the table next to Bruce, and then looked up at the dozen or so screens in front of him.
"Any ideas?"
“Not yet…”
Bruce said without turning his head.
At this moment, photos of people of all races flashed quickly on the screen in front of him. It was obvious that he was trying to screen out the ones most likely to be aliens based on some method.
According to the information revealed by General Zod, this alien may have lived on Earth for decades.
For such a long time, Bruce didn't believe that the other party could completely hide himself without revealing any flaws.
As long as he is given enough time, Bruce believes he can find this alien, but...
"Twenty-four hours is still too short..."
Bruce sighed, leaned back in his chair, crossed his arms, and stared at the screening software running automatically in front of him with a frown.
Alfred said softly, "I've said it before, you're doing useless work. Even if you really find aliens, so what? Will the alien general named Zod keep his promise?"
"You are wrong, Alfred."
Bruce glanced at him and said calmly, "Zod didn't make any promises at all. He just made unilateral declarations and threats. He never said that he would let the Earth go if the alien was handed over."
Alfred asked in confusion: "Then why are you still looking for the alien hiding on Earth?"
Bruce shook his head and said, "Just looking for more possibilities!"
Today, the Earth and humanity are facing an unprecedented interstellar diplomatic event.
Considering the other party's tough attitude and unpredictable technological level, Bruce felt that he had to make multiple plans.
Finding their compatriots according to the aliens' requirements is one thing, and finding a way to fight against the aliens is another...
Thinking of this, he turned and looked at the butler beside him.
"Alfred, have you contacted Mrs. Donna?"
"I have contacted you."
Alfred nodded: "But Mrs. Donna has not responded yet."
Bruce frowned, suddenly pulled out a chair, stood up and said, "Alfred, you come and find the alien for me. I will go to Trevor Manor myself."
Alfred was surprised: "You are going to see Mrs. Donna at this time?"
Bruce shook his head and said, "No, I'm looking for her parents, Wonder Woman and Mr. Fantastic."
"Alfred, I have a feeling that this incident may be an unprecedented crisis on Earth. We need to unite all the forces that can be united to survive this disaster..."
…
On the other side, in Kansas, the small town of Smallville.
The young small town priest was cleaning the church while listening to various news talk shows that were urgently broadcast on TV.
Apparently, after the alien who calls himself General Zod made his declaration, all television programs have been cancelled by the government, and replaced with a large number of news columns discussing the incident and calming the public's panic.
Just like the news interview the priest is listening to right now.
"…We know very little about these visitors, but according to the government, they pose no threat to humans, although they don't sound all that friendly…"
"Rather than this, I think everyone should have this question——"
"Who exactly is this Kal-El? Does he really exist?"
"How could he have stayed hidden on Earth for so long?"
"Could it be that he has been secretly cooperating with a certain country for a long time?"
"Until further announcements from the government and officials, we won't know about these issues..."
The host's voice echoed continuously in the church.
Also echoing was the slow and rhythmic cleaning sound of the young priest.
“Crack—”
With the noise, the door of the church was opened.
The young priest stopped what he was doing and turned to look at the church entrance.
I saw a tall and strong black-haired young man wearing a light blue plaid shirt, with a handsome and tough face standing there silently, looking at the young priest in the church with his blue eyes full of complex emotions.
The young priest opened his mouth and was about to say that the church was being cleaned and if there was anything, it would be best to come tomorrow.
But thinking of the alien incident that had just happened not long ago, the young priest hesitated for a moment and was unable to speak to drive away the young man with complicated emotions in his eyes.
He sighed, waved at the young man, then walked to the wall and put down the broom.
Soon, the black-haired young man, or Clark Kent before he became Superman, sat in the empty church, staring calmly at the young priest across a seat.
The young priest asked calmly, "Lost Lamb, tell me, what is troubling you?"
Clark sighed softly: "Too many, I don't know where to start..."
"You can start anywhere you want!"
Looking at the young priest's slightly encouraging smile, Clark was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "The person they wanted on that spaceship that appeared last night was me..."
…
This day was destined to be extraordinary, because at the same time, things were surging all over the world.
Batman Bruce Wayne wants to form a powerful team to prevent the Kryptonians from attacking the earth.
Superman Clark Kent told the truth to the priest in the church, hesitating whether to surrender himself.
Diana and Steve, who are far away in Europe, are worried about the safety of their two daughters and are rushing towards Gotham City.
As for Lin Zhongtian, he was still sitting on the sofa in Trevor Manor, listening with relish to Leta and Donna telling their stories over the years.
At the same time, a small incident occurred on the Kryptonian spacecraft far away in the synchronous orbit of the moon.
The Kryptonian soldier wearing black technological armor quietly slipped out of the spaceship and took off the armor in the space outside the spaceship. He was only wearing a black tight combat uniform with the family emblem printed on the chest. Facing the sunlight, he opened his arms with a look of enjoyment.
At this moment, a cold voice suddenly came from the Krypton soldier's earphone.
"Danas, what are you doing?"
“…”
Danas, who was enjoying a sunbath, froze and quickly turned to look at the open spaceship door behind him.
He saw a royal sister wearing black armor, with delicate features and a cold expression standing behind the cabin door, looking at him with a frown.
Danas smiled awkwardly, put on the black armor, and pretended to be nonchalant as he explained, "I just want to bask in the sun. The sun on Earth is younger than that on Krypton. My cells like them very much... Cousin, do you want to try it too?"
