The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman.

Chapter 3501 Research on Cats and Dogs (Forty-nine)

The feud between Zod and Clark Kent can be traced back to the old comics. This Kryptonian general is Superman's number one enemy besides Luthor. In many cases, he can even surpass Luthor in terms of the number of appearances and the length of the story, and every time he causes great trouble to Superman.

Although Superman is a positive character who can defeat the evil alien generals every time and protect the earth and his cities, every time I see Superman defeat General Zod, it is not as satisfying as seeing Superman defeat other enemies. Instead, it feels a little bit aggrieved.

The reason is that they are both Kryptonians. Zod wants to revive Krypton, and Superman wants to protect the Earth. Logically, this is a conflict of ideas, but the question is, why would two Kryptonians come to Earth to fight in order to verify their ideas?
Even if Zod has no ideas to prove, and simply wants to invade the Earth and turn it into a second Krypton, the destruction of Krypton had nothing to do with the Earth. You guys destroyed your own civilization, but you want to use the Earth as a substitute. How can this make sense?
Most importantly, the battlefield is set on Earth. If they lose, Earth will be occupied, and if they win, the metropolis will be messed up. So humans lose twice?
Isn't this equivalent to the Soviet Union and Germany signing a non-aggression pact, with Poland caught in the middle scratching its head?

Although reason will tell readers that Superman is on the side of humanity to protect the earth, it is inevitable that people will wonder: If Superman had not come, would Zod have come too?
When you read the comics, you might just be enjoying the fun, but when you think about it later, you feel that there is something wrong with it.

From Superman's perspective, it's even more frustrating.

When Krypton was destroyed, he knew nothing and it was not his intention to come to Earth. He was living a happy life on Earth, but a madman came from his hometown and endangered the humans who were very kind to him.

After finally defeating the powerful enemy and looking at the ruins destroyed by the war, one can't help but wonder: If I hadn't come here, would all these tragedies have never happened? Would humans be able to live a more stable and happy life?

What's even more depressing is that Zod obviously knows this, so every time he retreats and leaves, he has a sense of pride in "Look, what have you brought to your beloved human beings."

Although it is a bit like a spiritual victory, it can really hit Superman hard. If some people who don't know the truth get involved and accuse Superman of causing all these troubles on Earth, it will be a bigger blow to Superman.

Superman has many enemies: Luthor, Doomsday, Poltergeist, etc. But none of them is like his compatriot Zod, who makes him feel sad even if he wins the battle and looks at the ruins of the city.

Won, but not completely.

Most of the righteous superheroes in the universe will face this dilemma. Because their moral bottom line is too high, they will inevitably have various philosophical thoughts about their own existence and social existence, commonly known as "thinking too much".

But in fact, it is very simple to solve this problem, that is to abandon the shackles of quality and enjoy an immoral life.

To put it bluntly, Superman is too well-mannered. Before Zod was defeated and retreated, you pointed at his nose and scolded him, calling him a stray dog, a stray dog, a gray-bearded old thief, and a white-haired man. You cursed him in all the harsh and heartbreaking ways, and he had to come back to fight you to see who was better.

Normally, it is wrong to curse someone, and it even has a bit of incompetent rage. But that is only when the game has not yet been decided. For such a disgusting opponent, if you don't taunt them even if you win the game, you have not won.

It's really uncultured, but it's also really cool.

Of course, some people may think that Zod is a general after all, and he was a well-known figure in Krypton. He probably won’t be broken by just a few words.

However, taunting is not only to break his defense, but also to let Superman vent his stress. If you put all your energy into taunting the opponent, you won't have time to think about other things.

Since the other side wants to win the spiritual victory through philosophical questions, then we can naturally win the spiritual victory through fancy ridicule. Anyway, it's all spiritual victory, so who is nobler than who?
Of course, Clark in this universe didn't do it for a moral victory. He made this gesture because he really thought Zod was too weak.

This was his judgment, not a mockery.

You are a Kryptonian general, and you have tied Bruce to your lair, and you still let him escape? !

And it seems like it wasn't just other people who escaped, they took something with them. You're not just an ordinary dish, you're Pamela's achievement - a dish that jumps high!

Obviously, Zod himself didn't expect something like this to happen, otherwise he wouldn't be so angry.

However, he got angry a little too early.

After Zod gradually regained his composure, he realized that he really shouldn't have been exposed so quickly. And now someone in the Justice League already knew the location of his base, so he had to move immediately.

After making the decision, he did not linger in the fight, but instead shook off the two supermen following him at the fastest speed.

What surprised him was that the Justice League of this universe did not catch up, but returned to the manor as soon as possible. Zod couldn't help but secretly mock the other party for being stupid.

But when he flew to the front of the cave, his heart sank completely.

The cave, which had become empty due to the removal of more than half of the equipment, was now completely empty.

The Kryptonian spaceship that occupied most of the back of the cave had disappeared at some point.

Zod stood at the entrance of the cave for more than ten seconds, as if he was completely unable to accept this fact.

This is indeed outrageous - that is the Kryptonian warship that he modified, and its performance and security measures are even better than ordinary Kryptonian ships. After the complete destruction of Krypton, this warship can almost walk sideways in the universe.

This thing is not something that humans can operate. It can only recognize the identity information of Kryptonians, and only his identity information can be recognized and the spacecraft can be successfully started.

Even if the spacecraft is successfully launched, the operation is very complicated. Without professional space navigation training on Krypton, it is absolutely impossible to drive it away.

There are only a few Kryptonians on this earth, even if you include the two superheroes from outside, there are only three.

These three were thrown to Earth when they were babies. What do they know about Kryptonian spaceships? Even if they know a little bit, do they really think they are senior engineers who can directly crack the identity recognition system?

Zod never considered that the spaceship might not have been driven away, but was moved away in its entirety.

Because in his opinion, it is impossible for humans to have the technology to directly move such a large spacecraft, especially within a few minutes.

Zod checked the warnings from the spacecraft on his communicator. The first warning of abnormal energy detection appeared about a minute and a half ago.

You mean, a backward civilization that hasn't yet completely left the surface of the earth can transfer such a large spacecraft out of thin air within a minute and a half?
If they have this ability, why would I attack the Earth?

In Zod's impression, to achieve this, one must have portal technology, that is, warp technology, and at the same time, anti-gravity or compression technology.

Of course, Zod also knows about the existence of Green Lantern. But the whole universe knows about the existence of Green Lantern, and Krypton knew it at the beginning. In order to prevent them, the spacecraft has an energy repulsion system. Green Lantern energy cannot move this thing, and there is no way to pass through the portal constructed by Green Lantern energy.

What Zod didn't know was that Green Lantern Hal really couldn't move this thing. He tried several times and failed.

When Hal found the cave according to the coordinates, he was surprised: "This kid is really good at hiding."

He noticed that there were energy-blocking detection equipment around him, but they were already within visible distance to the naked eye, so the energy-blocking detection equipment was of no use.

Hal smashed the energy barrier that Zod had placed at the entrance of the cave. After he flew in, he saw the huge spaceship.

"Wow." Hal exclaimed as he flew around the spaceship, "These Kryptonians have good aesthetics. This spaceship is so beautiful."

Finally he stopped right above the spaceship, stretched out his hand, and the green light energy spread downwards.

But the moment it touched the surface of the spacecraft, the energy suddenly began to shake violently, and then it was out of his control and could no longer condense into shape, but directly exploded like fireworks.

Hal sighed in annoyance.

The Green Lantern Corps' position in the universe is indeed somewhat awkward. They are subordinates of the little blue men, but there is no shortage of civilizations in the universe with a technological level comparable to that of the little blue men.

Given the blue men's dislike for both people and dogs, who wouldn't be on guard against them?
Many advanced civilizations have developed certain methods to combat the emotional spectrum. Although they cannot directly destroy the Lantern Ring Legion, they can definitely prevent them from bothering them.

Unfortunately, Krypton civilization also has similar technology. Although the materials are scarce and there is no way to arm on a large scale, Zod led the elite of Krypton back then, so it is not surprising that his spaceship is equipped with this technology.

Hal flew around the spaceship again without giving up, and then he suddenly remembered, didn't Bruce say that there was damage on the surface of the spaceship?

This time, Hal carefully looked at the entire spaceship inside and out, and finally found a small opening at the bottom of the spaceship that was just big enough for one person to enter and exit.

After Hal got in, he found that the parts inside could not resist his green light energy.

In theory, he could dismantle the thing bit by bit from the inside. But the problem is that Zod will be back soon. Although it is not impossible to change from stealing to robbing, if Zod gets angry, he will destroy everything with him, which will be a big loss.

After thinking it over, Hal decided not to take the risk. He picked up the communicator and called Oliver, briefly explaining the situation on his side.

"I'll contact Barry," Oliver said. "He should have a solution."

So Barry, who was sitting in Bruce's car, received a call from Oliver and was called away to move the spaceship at the critical moment.

The method he used seemed simpler than Hal's, but was actually much more subtle - it was the same method he used to deal with Injustice Superman: directly moving the spaceship to another point in time.

But the difference was that this time, he did not leave behind a shadow projected from another point in time. It was as if the spaceship had completely disappeared.
