MCU- CH-297. A mysterious green person

Zod felt that the experience of this short day on Earth was more tumultuous than anything he had experienced in the past few decades.

The destruction of Krypton was not as he had imagined; it was orchestrated by a mastermind hidden in the shadows.

He had believed that he and his people were the last hope for Krypton, but he never anticipated that Brainiac had a city called Kandor, home to seven million Kryptonians.

What's more, the long-forgotten Kryptonian god had now appeared before him in physical form.

However, as the guardian of Krypton, Zod's mission, engraved deep within him, was to protect everything Kryptonian.

While he had no way to undo the destruction of Krypton, he had now gained immense strength and the support of the Kryptonian god. He swore to rescue the imprisoned Kryptonians.

"Brainiac, I will settle this score with you!"

Despite knowing that Brainiac was a formidable intelligence with level 12 intellect in the universe, and even though the remnants of Krypton were mere playthings to him, Zod still made his vow.

"I will save my people too!"

This was the first time that Clark and Zod stood on the same side.

After Clark and Zod settled down in the Arctic, an uproar broke out on Earth due to the sudden appearance and disappearance of Zod and his group.

"Have the aliens left? Did they find the people they were looking for?"

"Has Earth been exposed to the eyes of a more advanced civilization? Who will protect us?"

"We don't know if the aliens' visit was really about finding lost compatriots or if it was a prelude to an invasion."

"How many aliens are hiding on our planet? Could they have stolen our appearances and are hiding among us?"

For a while, discussions raged on.

However, compared to the wild speculation of the public, the national powers with top-tier technology were able to clearly track Clark's figure using satellites.

They had already deduced that the "flying man" seen above Metropolis some time ago was the alien visitor.

This time, the visitor had taken the initiative to meet with his compatriots, possibly to reach some agreement. All nations mobilized their satellites to search for clues.

"General, we've deployed all satellites to monitor the moon. A thorough search of the star's orbit was conducted, but no useful trace was found."

"We have reason to believe the aliens have indeed left, but we can't rule out the possibility that they have anti-reconnaissance capabilities far superior to ours, blocking our satellite detection."

At that moment, in a military base, soldiers were briefing their commander.

"Is there any way to locate the man in the red cape?"

The general asked with a grim look.

"He disappeared with the aliens, and we have no leads at all now."

Upon hearing this, the general's already darkened face seemed to grow even more grim.

However, at that very moment, an alarm suddenly went off.

"What's happening?"

The general inquired immediately.

"General, our satellite over the North Pole was suddenly attacked by an unknown entity and has lost contact. Additionally, we've detected several high-energy reactions in that area."

The soldier quickly reported the situation.

"Immediately determine the source of the attack. Whoever dares provoke us must be prepared to pay the price."

The general was already on edge from the issues with Zod, and now, with this new attack, he was on the verge of exploding!

On Earth, the United States was the undisputed global power and was used to acting with authority. If anyone dared challenge them, they would deploy their military might to show who was in charge.

"General, could it be those missing aliens who did this?"

Someone nearby speculated.

Upon hearing this, the angry general instantly calmed down.

"Lock onto the source of the high-energy signal and send a commando team to investigate immediately."

"Even if they are aliens, Earth belongs to us humans. If they try to take a piece of our pie, I'll make sure they break their teeth!"

As the general made his arrangements, he was also preparing to submit an application to Congress. Once it was confirmed that the aliens were indeed hiding in the Arctic, all their forces would be redirected toward that location.

Meanwhile, in the North Pole, the commotion had been caused by the awakened Kryptonians.

Due to his newly activated talents, one Kryptonian noticed a satellite seemingly monitoring him. Unable to control himself, he fired two beams of heat vision, destroying the satellite in the process.

Such a strong reaction would naturally attract attention.

However, with Jor-El's help, these movements were quickly concealed.

"So this is the true power we possess? General, if every one of us had this power, how could Krypton have been destroyed?"

After feeling the immense strength she now possessed, Fiora couldn't help but speak to Zod, tears in her eyes.

Her designated profession was that of a soldier, and the mission to defend Krypton was deeply ingrained in her very being.

Throughout her life, she followed Zod into battle without shedding a tear, no matter the pain. She didn't cry when she was imprisoned and exiled as a traitor along with her revered general. She didn't cry when facing the destruction of Krypton.

But now, with this newfound power, this iron-willed soldier was shedding tears!

Upon hearing Fiora's words, Jor-El, now existing only as a consciousness, couldn't help but be filled with complicated emotions.

He had discovered this secret before Krypton's destruction, but having lost hope in the decaying Krypton, he chose not to share the secret. Instead, he placed all his hopes on his child, the one who had just spoken.

"Fiora, everything is moving in the right direction. In the future, Krypton will be reborn, and its glory will be greater than ever."

Zod patted her adjutant's shoulder, offering her comfort, and this was the truest thought in his heart.

Just as the people of Krypton looked forward to a better future, a dark hand was already at work!

Lex Luthor, the controller of LuthorCorp, was now being approached by an unknown entity.

"Lex Luthor, the owner of the ninth level of intelligence, you are one of the smartest humans on Earth. You are qualified to cooperate with me."

Luthor, lost in thought, suddenly heard a voice that made him pause.

Before Superman's arrival, everything about Luthor had been perfectly normal. Now, he was a billionaire, business tycoon, philanthropist, inventor, and politician, even running for the US presidency.

"Who are you? If you wish to cooperate with me but can't even reveal your face, then you're not showing me the proper respect."

Luthor didn't panic. From the sentence, he had already deduced that the speaker was from outside Earth.

As soon as Luthor finished speaking, the black screen of his computer flickered and came to life, revealing a green figure on the display.
