"Guardian, target spotted, two targets in total, requesting attack!"
"Confirmed, Thunder 11, commence attack!"
An A-10 attack aircraft, emitting a sharp whistling sound, rapidly flew towards Fiora and General Zod's location.
The fighter jet's 30mm cannon unleashed bullets capable of easily tearing through steel, heading towards the two.
A dense storm of bullets instantly swept through the entire street.
General Zod and Fiora immediately dodged to the left and right, evading the cannon fire from the fighter jet.
Clark, caught in the midst of it, also struggled to his feet and used his super speed to run towards the buildings on either side.
"Target lost! Confirming no hit on target, commencing second round of attack!"
"Thunder 11" shouted to the commander over the radio.
"Cease attack! Thunder 11! Direction 211, unknown object moving towards you! Eject immediately! Eject!"
Guardian immediately issued a warning to "Thunder 11" which was strafing bullets!
But by the time the pilot reacted, it was too late; Fiora had already used her super jumping ability to leap onto "Thunder 11" with a bang.
She punched open the cockpit, killed the pilot inside the fighter jet, and then manually dismantled the plane's control system.
The out-of-control plane immediately plummeted downwards.
Boom!
The square in front of the town instantly turned into a sea of fire.
A huge explosion echoed throughout the entire town.
"Ugh!"
Inside a shop on one side of the street, Clark clutched his chest, coughing violently.
He staggered forward, each step feeling like excruciating pain.
Large drops of sweat dripped from his forehead.
At his wit's end, he couldn't even use his super speed, only able to stumble deeper inside.
"Hey, Clark!"
As he struggled to breathe, he suddenly heard a familiar voice.
Looking up, Bart appeared before him, he didn't know when.
Bart, wearing a prototype Flash suit, glanced at General Zod who was approaching from outside, and took a deep breath.
"I'll handle this here."
"Not you, us!"
Jenna, wearing leather clothes and pants and an eye mask, emerged from behind Bart.
"You guys?"
Clark didn't know why they would appear here.
Bang!
Just as he was about to ask something, a violent impact sounded from behind him.
Turning around, General Zod's body was covered in a layer of ice.
The cold air enveloped his body, quickly freezing him into an ice sculpture.
A young man extended his hands, emitting cold air that continuously impacted General Zod.
"Hoo-ah!"
Immediately after, a young woman who looked very similar to the young man leaped upwards with all her might.
The beams inside the room were directly cut in half by the sharp claws she revealed.
With a crash, the half of the ceiling that had lost its metal beam support immediately collapsed, burying General Zod, who was already an ice sculpture, in the rubble.
Thump! Thump!
After completing the feat of burying General Zod in the ruins, the young woman quickly ran towards Clark.
"We have to get out of here!"
The young woman said anxiously to the others.
"You... you're Jenna!"
Clark looked at the young woman and asked with some surprise.
He hadn't expected such a big change in the short-haired young woman after half a year of not seeing her.
The young man emitting cold air also ran towards Clark.
"No, the cold air I released couldn't penetrate his armor at all. I think, in terms of trouble, this guy completely covered in black armor should be even more terrifying than Brainiac."
Clark instantly recognized that this should be the young man he had rescued from Brainiac before.
He was Jenna's twin, and Clark remembered his name should be Zan.
Zan scratched his head somewhat awkwardly, "What should we do next?"
"You're always indecisive, Zan! If I hadn't distracted that guy for you, you probably would have messed up just now!"
His sister Jenna glared at Zan.
"There's no time, we need to leave here quickly!"
Jenna didn't bother with pleasantries and said, "Those aliens should be coming after us soon!"
Clark's strength had recovered a little, and he said to the young men and women who had come to help him:
"This isn't where you should be, you should leave here immediately!"
"No, we're here to help you!"
As soon as Jenna finished speaking, with a bang, the ruins were blasted open.
Amidst the flying debris, General Zod stood up.
Filled with rage, he stared at Clark and his group.
The transparent mask on his head was damaged, and like unstable video flickering, the transparent protective shield began to exhibit unstable "frame skipping" jitters.
Clark shielded the children behind him, looking at General Zod whose protective helmet was malfunctioning.
He simply removed the entire protective mask, exposing himself to Earth's atmospheric environment.
But he immediately felt a wave of dizziness.
All sorts of chaotic information and countless sounds poured into his mind, causing him a splitting headache at that moment.
Clutching his forehead with one hand, General Zod staggered a step forward, "What... what did you do to me?"
Clark shook his head, looking at the confused General Zod, whose body was clearly having problems, he knew why General Zod was like this.
When Kryptonians are exposed to yellow sunlight, both their senses and strength experience a qualitative increase.
But overly sensitive senses are not always a good thing.
Unable to filter information, the sensory world is suddenly flooded with so much information; without guidance and training, they would be tormented by this information to the point of wishing for death.
"My parents once taught me that there are too many things in this world that you don't need to pay attention to. If you have senses far beyond ordinary people, but don't know how to adapt to them, then you will be burdened by your own talent!"
"Ugh!"
As Clark spoke, General Zod painfully knelt to the ground.
The constant influx of those things tormented him like an unshakeable curse.
"Without your helmet, you can perceive everything. It's painful, isn't it?"
Clark breathed slightly, walking towards General Zod.
But his gaze quickly fell upon the black beetle spaceship, hovering inside the shop outside.
As the beetle spaceship's weapon continuously charged, a silver-white beam weapon, with a bang, struck his body.
Clark was struck by the Kryptonian spaceship's weapon, hitting the ground and directly shattering it into pieces.
Clutching his chest, he saw the beetle spaceship aiming its weapon at the entire shop again.
Clark immediately flew up, instantly moving next to Bart and the others, using his body to shield them from the shockwave.
At this moment, the beetle spaceship also stopped its pursuit; several individuals descended from the ship, restrained the unwillingly roaring General Zod, and walked towards the spaceship.
General Zod, gnashing his teeth and roaring, looked at Clark, who was protecting the others.
And Clark, not to be outdone, stared back at him.
Both sides saw an unyielding hatred in each other's eyes!
Boom!
The beetle spaceship's engines ignited, and with a roar, it soared into the sky.
Metropolis, Chloe and Louise were walking towards a residential apartment building, following the information provided by General Lane.
"This should be the residential area for Kansas State government staff, right?"
Chloe surveyed her surroundings and asked Louise.
"Yes, according to the specific address, this should be it."
Louise recalled what her father had told her.
"As far as I know, Louise, your father shouldn't have any dealings with the state government, unless he plans to take a position in the state government after retirement, or run for State Councilor like Mr. Kent."
Chloe complained to her cousin.
"He probably doesn't have that intention, because he often tells me how foolish and arrogant those councilors and officials are."
Louise said as she walked up to the third floor.
Finally, she knocked on a door, number three-zero-four.
"Who are you?"
The young, beautiful woman who opened the door asked the two with a puzzled expression.
"Hello, Miss Meli, I am Louise Lane, and my father is General Sam Lane!"
"I'm Chloe Sullivan."
The two introduced themselves to Meli.
Upon hearing Louise say her father was General Lane, Meli's expression stiffened.
She was one of the few survivors from the vampire attack incident when Eric used Heat Vision to bombard the command center.
As the administrative secretary for the governor's office, she had experienced such an unforgettable event, suffering irreparable trauma, and had taken extended leave to rest at home, not expecting to be forced to recall her past experiences again.
After inviting the two inside, Meli poured them water.
Louise got straight to the point and stated her purpose for coming.
"Something left by General Lane?"
Meli paused, then nodded, walked to her room, opened a safe, and took out a file bag.
The file bag contained documents, photos, and other materials.
"So, do we need to open it?"
Looking at the file bag Meli handed over, Chloe asked her cousin.
"My father didn't let me open it, but now I can make my own decision."
Louise smiled slightly at Chloe and opened the file bag.
Chloe also leaned in curiously.
Several photos immediately caught her attention.
In the somewhat blurry photos, Eric's eyes could vaguely be seen emitting crimson light, aimed at US soldiers.
Soldiers holding firearms were instantly cut in half by Eric's Heat Vision.
Blood and dirt covered the armored vehicle, and the scene was utterly gruesome.
"This... this is Eric attacking US soldiers?!"
Chloe asked with some surprise.
"Before, I participated in a military operation led by General Lane, and the target of the military operation was Eric Kent, and the result was the complete annihilation of the army."
"No, impossible!"
Chloe muttered to herself, "Although Eric's temperament is a bit cold, he's not that kind of person!"
