The Knights of the DC House

Chapter 2: Give Up Being Superman

In Lex's private laboratory, when Lex said these words, the already depressing atmosphere became even more depressing. Who would have thought that the most powerful superhero in the world has saved the earth so many times?

Countless supermen are about to die. Once this news is known to the outside world, it is unknown how much turmoil it will cause, but you can imagine how bad the situation will be.

Regardless of whether it is officially recognized or not, the existence of Superman is indeed a line of defense for the stability of the earth and even the entire human society. Because Superman is so powerful that it is obvious to all that he can easily carry the power of the earth. As long as he wants to, he can do it in a second.

He can solve everything that happened on the earth at this time, and then come back to eat a hamburger. This is the terrifying thing about Superman, and why he is called the God on Earth.

Because he meets all people's requirements for God, he can be omniscient, omnipresent, and omnipotent. At first, when Superman appeared, people were afraid of him and officials warned him, even if Batman at the time was

After knowing the existence of Superman, he has been making various backup plans, because he knows that as long as there is a 1% possibility that Superman will be hostile to humans, then he will treat it as 100%.

This is something he must consider. Regardless of whether Superman is his friend or not, thanks to Superman's actions for ten years, he has used his actions to prove that he is not a god on earth, but just a person trying to do something with his own abilities.

He is just a good person. His existence has made even local wars rare in this world, because once the war starts and Superman intervenes, the war will become a thankless and loss-making business.

What is the purpose of launching a war? It's not just for those resources, but with the emergence of Superman, their weapons and equipment will become scrap metal. Moreover, his approach is tenable from an international and humanitarian perspective. I just stopped both sides.

Unnecessary injuries will occur after starting a war. The absence of weapons does not mean that there is no combat effectiveness. I did not interrupt their hands and feet.

As a superman, he uses not only his strength, but also his brain that has flashes of inspiration from time to time. With this combination, the world environment that dares not start the war is also conducive to the adaptation and development of the entire superhuman being in society. And now, if

When the news of Superman's death spreads, the city that will be hardest hit will be Metropolis, the city where Superman lives. Those who once buried their evil intentions in their hearts because of Superman's existence will begin to stand up and declare themselves.

He is the master of this city.

Then there are the official or other anti-government organizations. That is Superman. He has such power that the world calls him God. If he dies, can his body allow him to obtain this secret and create a group of supermen?

Army, then, the earth is just the starting point of ambition, and the stars and the sea are the future. Don't look at the fact that the government is currently promoting various policies to cooperate with superhumans in social life, it is because those in power are stimulated by the big countries in the East.

The most populous country in the East has blurred the concept of race from the beginning, uses cultural identity to promote national unity, and has achieved relative fairness in the treatment of superhumans and ordinary people. Of course, this is also part of its historical heritage.

Reason. The advantage of this is that both superhumans and ordinary people living in that country will recognize that country, because the country does not treat them maliciously because of their specialness. The miracles created by that country have made people all over the world recognize it.

All superhuman beings yearn for it.

It’s just that everyone knows that the nationality of that country is the most difficult to obtain. On the contrary, in this country, the concepts between races have risen to the level of political correctness, and can even be used as a means of attack to criticize and maliciously slander others.

Your movie stars all white people. Oh, you are discriminating. Your movie stars all black people. Yes, I will give you an award. Extreme political struggles have already made these politicians miserable, coupled with the ultra-violent people who are active in society.

human beings.

They urgently need to make this power controllable, which is why they have so many welfare policies now, because they know that if they continue like this, their position as the number one in the world will really change. But now, if they are in power

Those who know that Superman is about to die do not rule out the ambitions inside, and may even use other means to threaten Superman, just for the sake of his body, his genetic code, and mastering this power.

There is not a fool in this laboratory. If they can't solve this problem, the conflict surrounding Superman's death can even evolve into the beginning of World War III. Superman's power, too many people

Coveted. This kind of greed for superhuman power can make these people lose their minds and consider the consequences of doing so, and rational people will also make a decision that hurts both sides under this coercion.

That's why they were angry. They couldn't come up with a way to get the best of both worlds, so they could only be incompetent and furious, especially Lex. It was not easy, it was not easy to reach a preliminary reconciliation with Superman, but now, he has to watch Superman like this

Death, this gap prevented him from using his brain to calmly look at everything that happened now. Instead, Superman, who had woken up, just sat there, watching Lex worry about him, and listening to his most

The tone of a good friend who is gradually losing his mind.

He was supposed to be sad at this bad news, but he suddenly smiled. It turned out that he had been cared about by so many people without knowing it, not just his family. The man who lost his home and traveled across the galaxy to this planet

The baby on the blue planet is no longer alone. These people care about him not because he is Superman, but because he is Clark Kent and Kal-El.

"Um... don't argue like this. At least I'm still sitting here." Superman looked at Lex and Batman, who were a little emotionally unstable, with a helpless, but also a bit of humor.

The doting and habitual tone comforted the two of them.

"Clark!"

"Well, I know what you want to say, Bruce, but now, I think you all can go out for a while. I want to be alone. As a person who has received a critical illness notice, this right should be

Yes?"

Seeing Superman's indifferent expression and these words, Lex and Batman didn't know what to say for a moment. After thinking about it, they also left the laboratory, leaving this room to Superman himself.

People. The four people who came out also saw Superman's family members, namely Lois and the others. However, neither Batman nor Lex could face the looks they directed at them. They could only walk by them in silence.

Pass by and stand there.

Batman, who took off his mask, frowned, and Lex, who was a bit angry, all showed the fact that they could not solve the problem of Superman and could only stand there and manage their facial expressions. Their performance only made people feel uncomfortable.

Louise and the others were in even worse moods. Kara, who could not accept this fact, left the laboratory to get some air. Little Jonathan could only hold his mother's hand, while the other hand was held by Helena, Batman's baby.

The daughter is holding the hand.

It's just that at this time, Batman didn't care about the matter between his godson and his baby daughter. Superman's matter had become what he needed to solve the most. At the same time, Ke Wen arrived, and as soon as he appeared in the experiment

In the room, looking at the sad faces of everyone, I felt a little at a loss for a moment.

"Hey, what's going on? The way you are acting makes me feel like Superman is about to die soon." He appeared behind Dick silently, nudged Dick with his elbow, and whispered in his ear.

"If you can't speak, don't say it. You came here so late. The one who needs your comfort has already gone up to get some air." Ke Wen's late arrival made Dick say angrily. He pursed his lips and watched Kara disappear.

location.

"Ah, let's put that question aside for now, so, what happened to Superman?"

Regarding Dick's teasing, Ke Wen was also helpless, but the focus of the problem now was not to comfort Kara, but to Superman. The appearance of Ke Wen also attracted the attention of Lex and Batman. Regarding Ke Wen, after thinking about it, it was still

Tell Ke Wen the information they have now, and they might come up with some new ideas. Although Ke Wen is not as good as him in terms of IQ, but in terms of brain power, he is much better than him. At least Batman can't think of a fight.

The combat effectiveness of carrying a stereo is so high.

"Lex and I did three days of examinations, and we can only confirm one thing. The energy Superman absorbed from the core of Apokolips is eroding his cells. If he continues to act as Superman, those absorbed suns will

Light, while giving Superman strength, is also destroying his cells. In other words, as long as he is still Superman and absorbs sunlight, the closer he will be to death. The only way is to let Superman become Clark Kent.

, but the biggest problem is that the world cannot live without Superman."

Batman talks about the current dilemma. With his and Lex's wisdom, coupled with Superman's Fortress of Solitude in the Arctic, the technology inside is enough for him and Lex to do this, adjust all the cells in Superman's body, and give up.

With the power of Superman, he can become an ordinary person. But without Superman's Justice League and without Superman's protection of the earth, there are too many risks to bear. Just the extraterrestrial civilizations that come to earth from time to time are enough to give them a headache, let alone

There are endless villains emerging on the earth.

It can be said that once Superman is no longer Superman, the earth will definitely be in chaos. Superman is already closely connected with the earth.

"Well, if you don't mind, can you let me go in and talk to him, Superman."

After listening to Batman's story, Ke Wen also understood the crux of the current problem. He glanced at the closed laboratory and pointed at it.

After looking at each other with Lex, the two of them opened the door and let Ke Wen walk in. He waved his hands to the people behind him, and Ke Wen just walked in and saw a man crying alone in the laboratory.

Superman. From Ke Wen's perspective, it was clear to see that large teardrops fell from Superman's cheeks and dripped on the ground, but no sound was made. The only one who could see this scene at this time was Ke Wen.

"Ah! Shit, if you dare to tell me, I will risk my life for you!"

Superman, who was crying, also saw Ke Wen behind him through the reflection of his tears. He had been obsessed with crying just now and realized that someone had come in. His eyes lit up red, evaporating the tears falling on the ground. At the same time,

He also made an unseemly threat to Ke Wen with the fragrance in his mouth.

"Oh, okay, okay, I won't say anything. Well, I'll just sit here." He found a chair in front of Superman and sat down. He looked at Superman who had already cleaned up his messy face, as if nothing had happened. If not,

Ke Wen saw it with his own eyes. Just looking at it, Ke Wen also laughed out loud.

"What's so funny!"

"No, I just think this is good. At least you are not afraid of anything. You will cry and you will be afraid of death. Well, although it is a bit bad to say this, I think this kind of Superman is Clark...

Kent.”

"How can you not be afraid of death?" Regarding Ke Wen's emotion, Superman also looked behind him. His clairvoyant eyes could still be used. In this private laboratory built by Lex, because of the side effects of being eroded by the nuclear power of Apokolips, he still could

Not that big. Looking at his wife and two children outside the door, Superman was also talking there.

"I finally found my life partner, and I have two children, as well as my parents. Now I just want to watch my children grow up, get married, and then Louise and I retire and live the life we ​​want.

.But now, I am dying. As long as I am still Superman and as long as I still intend to do good things, then I will not be able to watch my children grow up and be with Lois. I would like to selfishly choose to become Clark Kent.

, but how can I turn a blind eye to those voices, those people who I can help but don’t help?”

Superman also understands that he needs to make a choice, but no matter which choice it is, it will only make Superman's future painful. If he gives up becoming Superman, his innate kindness will torture himself. If he gives up Clark...

Kent, so what happens to the people he loves and cares about when he dies? Superman can't make a choice, but someone can.

"Then be selfish and become Clark Kent."

The words spoken from Ke Wen's mouth made Superman stunned, and he looked at Ke Wen with surprised eyes. He didn't understand why Ke Wen said that. But Ke Wen just looked at Superman with a smile and said.

"No one ever asked you to do anything, you just thought it was the right thing to do. So since becoming Superman is right, why is becoming Clark Kent wrong? If you are worried about what will happen to the earth without you, then

I don’t think it’s necessary. A race, civilization, and existence that need to rely on supermen to move forward have little meaning. You can become a flag, and the flag will never fall, because like-minded people will always pick it up and carry it on their shoulders.

Up, keep going.

Besides, I believe there must be things you can do as Clark Kent in this world, you just need to find it yourself. Similarly, if you are worried that you will be destroyed if the world loses you, then why don’t you let the world go?

Into a bottle? Besides, isn’t it me? You know, protecting superheroes is also what Kamen Rider should do.”

Giving a thumbs up to Superman, Ke Wen also said there.
