Superman's Ending Manual

"Qiuwu hasn't come back yet?" Ke Youqing asked.

"She went to pick up Yongzhu. Yongzhu has a basketball game today and will be back late." Bai Wenna answered.

Ke Mingye held his chopsticks in his mouth and listened to his parents talking. Bai Qiuwu is his sister; Ke Yongzhu is the youngest brother in the family. Like him, he is adopted.

Bai Wenna seized the opportunity to scold Ke Youqing: "Look at you, you still say you care about the child."

"You are right, I won't argue with you."

Ke Youqing shrugged. The dramas at the dinner table just now have made him learn his lesson.

Ke Mingye glanced at the identity "Yixia·Qing Ya" above Ke Youqing's head, thinking that his father did not care about the child, but he just didn't have time to care.

He searched for historical news about "Qing Ya" on his mobile phone. It has been a full 28 years since this Chinese superhero first appeared in the world. Combined with Ke Youqing's age, it means that he had already put on a mask and a combat uniform when he just turned 17, and traveled around the world to fight against those difficult super-powered criminals.

However, no matter which country in the world, Qing Ya's reputation is unanimously terrible.

In China, "superheroes" are called "Yixia".

As the concept of "Yixia" becomes popular all over the country, the state officials began to seriously examine the image management and comprehensive quality of each Yixia, and examine whether they have a positive enough impact on the people, especially on the minors, and whether they can serve as role models in behavior.

If a Yixia receives a large number of reports from the masses and is reviled by thousands of people in the media, then the Super Hero Association is likely to take "forced offline" measures against him.

If the situation is not too serious, then try to hide him for a while, and then let him sign up for a series of courses similar to "Yixia Behavior Management" during this period, and then tentatively reveal some of the superhero's recent situation in the media, and buy traffic tweets to help him restore his reputation. Until public opinion warms up, this superhero will be allowed to return to the public eye again.

In this complex era, superheroes have gradually left the category of "special police" in any country and replaced the position of most popular idols.

Because of this, the public's requirements for their image are also getting higher and higher. Every superhero has to ensure that his behavior will not make any mistakes, so as not to be pushed to the forefront of public opinion by people with ulterior motives.

But under this premise, "Qing Ya", that is, Ke Mingye's father, has become a person who goes against the grain.

His evaluation in the media is particularly bad. People call him an outlaw who is violent and wanton in the name of justice, a lyncher who does whatever it takes, and a beast that only brings psychological shadows and violent influences to teenagers. He is not worthy of the nickname "superhero" which symbolizes hope and peace.

But even though "Blue Crow"'s methods are extremely violent and unconventional among all the superheroes, he is still a veteran of the Superhero Association and holds a certain amount of power in the Round Table.

Therefore, even though the public's condemnation has been increasing over the years and the hot searches have been one after another, he has remained active and has only received a few minor punishments from the association.

On the first day that Ke Mingye came here, he searched for "Blue Crow"'s information on the Internet.

In each photo, "Blue Crow" always has the same look for thousands of years. He wears a strange mask on his face that seems to have been carved by a blade. The eyes exposed in the eye sockets are as bright and deep as torches. There is a protruding blue bird beak on the philtrum of the mask, like a sharp sickle, making him look gloomy and aggressive like a beast.

He is wearing a black metal tights and a cloak that is enough to wrap the whole body.

Overall, just like his name, he really dressed himself up like a giant crow. The "qing" in the nickname "qing crow" comes from the blue beak on the mask.

He is a weirdo, with some mental illness; a "superhero" serving the people dressed so scary, like a villain, it is not unreasonable to be complained.

The above is the first impression Ke Mingye had when he looked at the photo.

At that time, he couldn't help but complain in his heart: "You are still teaching at the dinner table that 'hunchbacks must be corrected, we must pay attention to our image first, so that others can pay attention to our abilities', but you dress like this and go to fight criminals. Isn't your brain a little sick?"

Thinking of this, he looked at Ke Youqing again. It is still hard to imagine that the old father who is usually so kind and amiable, acts in an extremely gloomy, violent and extreme way after wearing a mask. No one knows whether the way he looks in front of his family is the real him or the way he looks after wearing a mask.

As his thoughts were scattered, the sound of unlocking the door suddenly came to his ears.

Then, the door at the entrance was opened.

"Who's here?" Bai Wenna asked.

Bai Ziling poked her head out of the kitchen and said expressionlessly, "Sister, and my brother." Then she lowered her head and continued to eat.

The two people who entered locked the door, washed their hands in the toilet, and walked into the kitchen. Ke Youqing and Bai Wenna greeted them and asked them to sit down and eat quickly.

Ke Mingye looked up at Bai Qiuwu, his sister.

Bai Qiuwu has exquisite facial features, clear eyebrows and clean temperament. She has long, silky hair as bright as lead gray, a green headband on her head, and a blue and white school uniform.

She is about the same height as Ke Mingye, about 1.72 meters, and Ke Mingye is taller.

[Name: Bai Qiuwu]

[Age: 17 years old]

[Gender: Female]

[Strength: A level (possessing top combat power far exceeding 90% of superhumans in the world)]

[Hidden identity: Wukong, the divine person (possessing the "Sun Wukong" path, one of the twenty-seven paths to the divine)]

[The promotion route of this spiritual path has been deduced: Immortal Stone → Monkey → Monkey King → Immortal Disciple → Bima Wen → Monkey King → Five Elements Mountain Prisoner → Golden Hoop Holy Monk → Fighting and Victorious Buddha. 】

[Currently, the realm of this psychic is in the "Bi Mawen" stage of the "promotion path". 】

Ke Mingye was staring blankly at the ridiculously long string of spiritual pathways, while Bai Qiuwu had already sat down at the dining table. She looked at him and asked, "When will the eldest brother and the second brother come back?"

"It's said it will be soon. It will probably only be in the next two days."

Ke Mingye answered casually. His eyes turned to Ke Yongzhu, the youngest brother in the family, who walked into the kitchen.

Ke Yongzhu had a shaved head and was wearing a school uniform. His facial features look pretty cute, but he always has a stern face, as if someone owes him money.

[Name: Ke Yongzhu]

[Age: 10 years old]

[Gender: Male]

[Strength: A+ level (possessing top combat power far exceeding 90% of superhumans in the world)]

[Hidden identity: The juvenile body of the disaster dragon species. 】

Looking at the family, Ke Mingye is currently most curious about his younger brother's identity. After all, a 10-year-old child has A+ level combat power, so it goes without saying how dangerous this so-called "disaster dragon species" is.

"I'm full."

"I'm full too."

Bai Zini and Bai Ziling said in unison, got up from the dining table, walked out of the kitchen, played with their mobile phones, and sat down on the sofa in the living room.

Ke Mingye was too lazy to speak, put down his chopsticks, stood up from the dining table, and followed them to sit on the sofa.

He saw that both of them were playing with their phones with their heads down, so he reached out first and picked up the remote control placed on the armrest of the sofa. After taking the initiative, he asked: "What do you want to watch?"

"'Scream'." Bai Ziling suggested.

"No, look at this, I'm going to run away." Bai Zini said.

"Then what are you looking at?" Bai Ziling turned to look at her.

"Isn't "Harry Potter" good? I just have to think about your horror movies." Bai Zini rolled her eyes at her.

Hearing the title of the film, Bai Ziling yawned, and his light white hair swayed slightly by his ears. "Sleepy." She pursed her lips and said.

"You two have a lot to do, so stop reading and listen to the news."

Ke Mingye leaned on the back of the sofa and pressed the remote control as he spoke, exiting the on-demand channel and entering the financial news channel.

As a result, the three of them just hung up the TV and played with their mobile phones on the sofa while listening to the news anchor's announcement.

Soon, Bai Qiuwu and Ke Yongzhu in the kitchen also finished eating. They took a bottle of drink from the refrigerator and sat on the sofa in the living room.

Ke Yongzhu arrived late and could only sit on the armrest, but he didn't mind, after all, this was the fate of being a younger brother.

"What about the finances?" Bai Qiuwu took a sip of orange juice, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and teased: "Okay, I will be the big boss from now on."

"Can't you improve your financial intelligence?" Ke Mingye said casually.

"That's right, that's right."

Bai Zini echoed, but actually didn't even raise her head or listen to what the host said, she just focused on playing with her phone.

At this time, his younger brother Ke Yongzhu, who was only 10 years old, took a sip of Coke and said, "You can look at anything. Don't listen to finance here, you are a bunch of people with cerebral palsy."

Ke Mingye sarcastically said to him: "Brother, how can your quality be so high? It's fine if you behave like this outside, but you will be beaten by me at home."

While drinking orange juice, Bai Qiuwu leaned over and hugged Ke Yongzhu's shoulders, saying, "I protect him at home. Why, you don't accept it?"

Her voice is clear and beautiful, with a hint of maturity that belies her age.

Ke Mingye rolled his eyes and said to himself, one of you has a combat strength of A level, and the other has a combat strength of A+ level. Who can be better than you? Why don't you just obey?

"No one in elementary school can beat me." Ke Yongzhu emphasized.

Ke Mingye closed his cell phone and said expressionlessly: "Okay, little school bully. Don't eat the heads of elementary school students alive just because you are of high moral character."

"How do you say that our brother is no longer a primary school student?" Bai Qiuwu asked with a smile.

Ke Mingye gnawed on a piece of melon seeds: "He calls us all cerebral palsy, and we treat him as a primary school student. Quality education must start at home, then school and society."

Ke Yongzhu still did not change his mind: "A group of high school students are here to listen to financial news. How can you not have cerebral palsy?"

"Speak with respect, okay? I'm a junior high school student, okay?" Bai Zini said casually, playing with her mobile phone.

"I'm in junior high school, too." Bai Ziling didn't listen to what they were saying and just echoed.

"Junior high school students don't listen to finance. I'm still a primary school student, wasting my life here with you." Ke Yongzhu said, about to grab the remote control from Ke Mingye's hand.

Ke Mingye refused to give up: "It's urgent, we all have mobile phones to play with, so there will definitely be no shortage of TV to watch, and we don't feel like we are wasting our lives. If you are a primary school student, you should be anxious. If you have the guts, ask your parents to buy you a mobile phone."

Ke Yongzhu was about to get angry, but Bai Qiuwu was quick to take the remote control from between the two of them.

Ke Yongzhu glanced at her and said nothing. At home, he only listened to his eldest sister, and didn't care about the other brothers.

"Sister, can you stop protecting him like this? You've spoiled him." Ke Mingye turned his head and glanced at Bai Qiuwu.

"Okay, stop bullying your brother."

Bai Qiuwu finished drinking the orange juice and was about to hand the remote control to Ke Yongzhu.

At this moment, the TV screen turned and the host's voice changed. Bai Qiuwu stared at the TV, and her slender right hand suddenly tightened the remote control slightly, and did not continue to hand it to Ke Yongzhu.

A buzzing sound like a giant peak flapping its wings came from the TV, and a pair of dark wings were rapidly rolling in the night.

This movement attracted the attention of everyone on the sofa. They looked up at the TV and saw the interior of a helicopter cabin.

The reporter leaning over the helicopter pointed the camera at the city below, shouting into the microphone:

"Breaking news, the superhuman criminal 'ghost tree' appeared in the crowded central urban area around Beijing, and has now climbed to the top of the high tower around Beijing!"

"Another superhuman crime?"

Ke Mingye muttered, following the reporter's camera lens, looking at a high tower cast in steel standing in the city center.

At the top of the tower, about twelve stories high, a blurry, tiny figure was standing at this time. The searchlight of the helicopter spread down, illuminating his silhouette pale and sharp.

As the camera gradually zoomed in, Ke Mingye was finally able to see the whole picture of the figure.

His body was naked, clearly showing the outline of a human, but there were a lot of plants embedded in his chest. Vines and thorns spread from the heart to all directions, covering all limbs. The most eye-catching thing is the towering antlers on both sides of his forehead. These two straight and curved horns make him look as strange as an evil god.

Before Ke Mingye could react, the man had already jumped down from the tower, and the crowd in the street exclaimed and screamed.

The camera was still focused on the inhuman monster. His figure jumped down from the top of the tower, and continued to flip in the air, rubbing against the cold wind to create a creepy firework, and forming a cold and bloody red track behind him.

Then, he slowly curled up into a ball, his muscles fluttering and swelling, as if he would be torn apart by the strong current generated by the rapid fall at any time.

Finally, he fell heavily to the ground amid the roars of the crowd below.

"Bang!" With a deafening roar, countless cracks spread out, and a huge pit nearly three meters deep was formed.

"It's the 'ghost tree'!"

In the crowd as dense as ants, someone pointed at the figure that had fallen to the ground and shouted.

Ke Mingye had tried it before, and only by seeing the target with his own eyes could he present detailed information about the other party; if he watched it on live TV, only part of the information would be presented in his eyes.

But it was enough, at this moment, the information about the uninvited guest had already appeared in his eyes.

[Code: A-level wanted criminal · Ghost Tree]

[Name: Majeldik]

[Age: 47 years old]

[Gender: Male]

[Strength: A-level (with top combat power far exceeding 90% of the world's superhumans)]

[Identity: Theologian · "Eudrasil" (holding the "World Tree" path, one of the twenty-seven ways to communicate with the gods)]

[Related introduction: "Eudrasil" is the world tree in Norse mythology. It is described in books as a huge gray oak tree that supports nine worlds, including the central world of mankind "Midgard" (Midgard), the residence of the gods "Asgard" (Asgard), etc. 】

【It is not possible to speculate the deduction route of the "path to the gods" and the realm of the god. 】

"Call Sun Wukong to me..."

Ghost Tree said in a deep voice, slowly walked out of the deep pit, and the hideous body wrapped in thorns was completely exposed under the colorful neon lights, as if bathing in the sea of ​​light. He stretched out his huge root-like arms, and his rapid breathing accompanied by furious roars resounded among the crowd.

"I won't say it a second time, call Sun Wukong to me, otherwise... I will kill everyone here without missing a single one!"

Ah, Sun Wukong? Ke Mingye raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking that he should be referring to the god, isn't that my sister?

Thinking of this, he slightly turned his face and confirmed Bai Qiuwu's information panel with the corner of his eye.

At this time, Bai Qiuwu was holding orange juice, and her face was still calm. But whether it was her slightly clenched hands or her eyes with a cold light, she could see that she was a little nervous.

[Name: Bai Qiuwu]

[Hidden identity: The God-master Wukong (possessing the "Sun Wukong" path, one of the twenty-seven paths to the gods)]

The next moment, the ghost tree suddenly pointed its huge right arm in the form of a tree root at the sky, and also at the reporter holding the camera.

The right arm deformed at a crazy speed, and in a blink of an eye it turned into thousands of sharp thorns, twisted and shot forward, spreading a full hundred meters in length. Then, it cut through the night, crushing the photographer in the helicopter cabin into a ball of blood foam, and instantly dissipated in the night sky.

On the TV, the camera fell to the ground in the cabin, but the image it shot was still retained.

The ghost tree pulled his arm, and the giant hand formed by the twisted thorns suddenly rose up in the helicopter cabin. The terrifying force directly caused the entire helicopter to tilt left and right in mid-air and tilt up and down. In just a few seconds, the helicopter turned into a sky-high fire, and the pilot disappeared in the sky.

Just at this time, Ke Youqing came out of the kitchen after washing the dishes and stood behind the children on the sofa. "What are you watching?" As he said, he hugged his shoulders and looked at the TV, and then frowned slightly.

With a loud explosion, the entire TV screen went dark and there was no movement.

At the same time, almost at the same time, several people around the sofa spoke at the same time.

"I'll go downstairs to buy a pack of cigarettes." Ke Youqing said.

"I suddenly remembered that I have an appointment with friends to go to the coffee shop tonight, so I won't watch TV with you." Bai Qiuwu said.

"Ah, speaking of it, I have to buy some stationery too." Bai Zini said.
