Chapter 5: Just in Time (4k3)

"Where are my uncle and Mark?"

The next morning, the sun was shining brightly. Russell came down from the second floor in his slippers, pretending to be sleepy and listless, and asked his aunt Debbie who was making breakfast in the kitchen.

“Nolan and Mark went to find a place to play baseball.

Don’t worry about them, let’s eat first.”

Debbie poured the fried eggs over the tomato pasta.

She filled a plate for herself and her nephew and placed them on the dining table.

"Playing baseball?"

After washing up, Russell sat down to eat.

What a heartwarming father-son moment, one throwing and the other catching, which is the most common way for American fathers and sons to increase their affection. Almighty Man rarely shows his emotions, and this kind of moment has never happened before.

Mark might have thought that his father, Omni-Man, was happy because he had awakened his abilities.

I wonder how his omnipotent uncle felt when he rarely played catch with his son.

Worry, relief, headache, pity...

Anyway, it must be very complicated. Russell rolled up the pasta on the plate that was tangled like a ball of thread with a fork, smiled lightly, put it into his mouth, and enjoyed the delicious taste.

When Mark was seven years old, his father told him that he was Omniman, and that he was actually an alien from another planet. The Viltrum were actually a peace-loving cosmic super race that would send warriors to protect the weak planets in the universe.

Omniman says the same thing to everyone else on Earth.

“It’s all bullshit.”

The Almighty Man is a pioneer warrior sent by the planet Vitrum to prepare for the invasion and occupation of the Earth in the future.

Eliminate threats while ensuring that the Earth is destroyed. When facing planetary threats, they are accustomed to relying on the Vitrum people.

"Like the evil alien Lex Luthor in the DC Universe always suspected Superman of being."

If Lex Luthor were born in this world, he would be the only wise man with a unique vision and foresight. Unfortunately...

The Vitrum people have a long lifespan, starting from several thousand years. Almighty Man originally planned to wait for several decades until his wife and son died of old age if Mark did not awaken his abilities before taking action.

This was the last resort he had to preserve his family ties.

Russell looked out the window at the sky.

Once Mark awakens his abilities, his life span soars. Omni-Man might not even live longer than his son, so it's better to suffer a short pain than a long one, so he decides to take action in advance.

This is also the cause of death of the Global Guard.

"Aunt, I feel a little uncomfortable today. I seem to have a low fever. I want to take a day off." After finishing the meal, Russell pushed away the plate and held his forehead.

"Low fever?" Aunt Debbie touched her nephew Russell's forehead distressedly, then compared it with her own. It was indeed a low fever. "I'll find the right medicine for you to take, and then go back to sleep.

Just get some sleep.”

If it was Mark who asked for leave, Debbie would definitely suspect that her son was lazy and didn't want to go to school, so he put a hot water cup on his forehead to pretend to have a low fever.

But my nephew Russell is different. He has been like a little adult since he was young. He has excellent grades and is so sensible at such a young age that it makes people feel distressed. He never causes any worries.

He must be unwell if he wants to take leave.

"I'm going upstairs, aunt."

After taking the medicine that his aunt Debbie found for him, Russell walked up the stairs to the bedroom upstairs.

Aunt Debbie changed into a real estate saleswoman's suit and high heels and prepared to go to work.

Whoosh!
At this time, Almighty Nolan and Mark came back and landed on the lawn in front of the house.

Mark had just been playing a ball throwing game with his father, Almighty Man, across the entire earth. The baseball followed the earth's orbit, was thrown out of his father's hands with great force, and circled the earth at high speed before falling into his hands.

The unprecedented thrilling experience made Mark drag his father to play until they were almost late for school.

Seeing his cousin Russell walking upstairs, he asked his mother who was going to work in confusion.

"Why did my cousin go upstairs in his pajamas? He's almost late for school."

"Russell is feeling a little unwell and won't be going to school today." Debbie kissed her husband on the cheek before leaving and said this to her husband, and also to her son.

"What's wrong with you, cousin?" Mark scratched his head.

I remember that two days ago, because he was brave enough to stand up for justice and got into trouble, my cousin Russell helped him fight with the football team member, and it seemed that he was punched in the stomach.

Although that guy was beaten even worse.

"Russell has a low-grade fever."

"Low fever?"

Nolan crossed his arms and glanced upstairs without thinking much about it.

Mark awakened his abilities the day before yesterday, became a superhero yesterday, and Russell has a low-grade fever today. It's a bit of a coincidence.

The minds of adolescents are always complicated.

Perhaps it is normal to feel unbalanced and uncomfortable after seeing your cousin's abilities awaken.

Nolan pinched his brows with a headache, and ignored this nephew whom he had raised.

He was planning to clear out the Earth's defenses today, and now he couldn't even take care of anyone else.

"Don't worry about your cousin. You go to school alone today."

"If I go to school alone, then I can just fly there!" Mark's eyes lit up.

"Whatever you want." Nolan waved his hand.

He went upstairs to check on his cousin and found that he was fine, just a little sleepy after taking medicine and about to fall asleep. He ignored it, grabbed his schoolbag, and rushed to school.

Nolan was the only one left in the living room.

He looked around this cozy little home that was always kept tidy by his wife, with a look of struggle on his face, but he quickly gritted his teeth, put on his battle suit, and flew out of the house.

With his cloak fluttering in the air, the Almighty Man folded his arms and looked at his nephew who was sleeping on the bed in the bedroom on the second floor with a complicated expression for a while, then flew away.

After Omni-Man flew away, Russell opened his eyes and waited for a while to make sure that his uncle Omni-Man would not come back for a while. Then he lifted the quilt, changed into a sports suit, and left at the speed of sound.

He was afraid that Omniman would go and slaughter the Global Guard right now, and he wouldn't be able to make it in time.

"I hope Uncle Nolan isn't going right away."

Russell immediately set off, heading straight for the Global Guard headquarters at the speed of sound.

……

"Help!"

Crowds of people in the streets fled screaming.

Hiding behind a police car, more than a dozen policemen with cold sweat on their foreheads kept firing at a tall figure in armor, but all in vain.

The bullets all bounced off the exoskeleton suit.

The super criminal Kill Cannon raised his right prosthetic arm, and a stout cannon shot out a dangerous red laser that pierced the building next to him.

"Look, I shot a hole in that building, and you are still shooting with your pistols. Don't you think you are overestimating your own abilities?" He impatiently and proudly tried to persuade the police officers to leave.

The next second, Killer Cannon was knocked away by a yellow and blue speeding figure, smashing through an entire department store building and flying to another block where he was unable to move.

"I know him, he's the super criminal Kill Ganon."

"Hero, you saved us.

Who are you!"

Facing the cheering crowd, Mark smiled slightly, put his hands on his hips and announced his name.

"Hello everyone, I am - the Invincible Young Hero!"

The complacent Mark did not notice that behind the clouds above, there was a majestic figure staring at him with his arms folded and his brows frowned.

The Omni-Hero looked at his son who was learning to be a superhero and fighting criminals, his eyes full of pity, as if he would never see such an innocent and carefree son again.

After watching for a while, he went back to the real estate company where his wife Debbie worked and watched his busy wife quietly for a while.

She is always so gentle and patient, and takes the time to introduce the house to every client who consults her.

The sun in the sky moved slowly. After an unknown amount of time, the Almighty Man closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When he opened his eyes again, his temperament changed drastically, as if a sharp blade that had not seen blood for more than ten years was unsheathed again, and his eyes were full of decisiveness and ferocity.

“It’s time!

No amount of hesitation could change the fact that he would eventually do it.

Omniman turned and rushed towards Utah on the horizon, his speed as fast as lightning, tearing through the clouds, his target directly targeting the Global Guard headquarters. ...

All over the world.

Different places.

Chi Su was having a picnic and flirting with his beautiful girlfriend on the green grass in the park; Eternal Man had just disdainfully sent a super villain who was about to self-destruct over the city into space; War Girl was listening to her female assistant report the good news that the company's market share was expected to increase in the third quarter.

Under the deep sea, Aquarius sat bored on the throne of Atlantis, along with Dark Wing, Green Ghost, Martian...

All members of the Global Guard received the assembly signal at the same time.

This signal will only appear when a major event occurs and the entire global escort team is required to take action.

Everyone rushed to the headquarters without any prior arrangement.

Chisu was the first to arrive.

As usual, he waited impatiently for his other slower teammates.

After a while, all the other members arrived, and the last one to arrive was Dark Wing, who arrived in a supersonic fighter.

laugh!
The streamlined supersonic armor slowly slowed down, the sonic boom cloud surrounding its tail dissipated, and it flew smoothly into the spacious passage of the Guard headquarters.

The pupils reflected the Dark Wing exclusive fighter that appeared many times in the news. Russell, who had just arrived at the snow-capped mountains, smiled as he looked at the sky.

"It seems I came at the right time."

It’s neither early nor late.

In the headquarters, the spacious base hall.

"Dark Wing, what's the matter that you called us here?"

"I?"

"The call to arms is your sign."

"not me."

"How is this going?"

When the global guard team met and discussed things, they found that something was not right.

"There's an error in the system, or someone forged it..."

Before the War Girl finished speaking, Chi Su, who was originally watching his teammates arguing boredly, seemed to see something, opened his eyes wide, and rushed towards the Eternal Man.

The Eternal Man was confused and reacted slowly. He was shocked and thought that Chi Su was going to attack him, but he couldn't dodge at Chi Su's speed and could only watch.

Whoosh!
The next moment, the Eternal Man was pushed away and just avoided a fist carrying terrifying power.

The fist tore through the air with a hair-raising shriek, and brushed past the Eternal Man and the other two. The Almighty Man's punch missed, and he stopped charging forward, falling to the ground with his red cape fluttering.

The strong wind caused by the rapid movement swept across the entire base.

Everyone's face changed drastically, and the heat in their bodies seemed to be taken away by the strong wind, making them feel cold all over.

"Omni-Man?"

"Did you fake the signal?"

That punch was no joke, Earth's most powerful superhero had just attacked them with murderous intent!

shhhhh!

Without saying a word, Dark Wing threw out a bomb dart to attack.

War Girl flew over and swung the hammer in her hand to hit Omni-Man.

The others also took action, preparing to take down the Omniman first. Facing this terrifying opponent, they did not have time to be distracted for even a millisecond.

Being besieged by the entire guard team, the Omni-Hero calmly dodged the attacks, only vaguely paying attention to the movements of one person out of the corner of his eyes.

That is Chi Su, the fastest man on earth, no doubt about it.

Even he is not as fast as the other.

No matter if he was attacking, helping others to avoid attacks like he just did, or running away to report the news, he was the person he feared the most!

Snapped!
Chi Su rushed over like a red lightning and punched Omni-Man.

One punch, and another punch.

Chi Su hit the Omnipotent Man with several punches from different directions, but only caused his head to tilt slightly twice, without causing any injuries.

The Almighty Man stood still, his eyes moving rapidly, trying his best to catch Chi Su's trajectory.

"here we go again!

It's now! "

A punch came immediately after with a blurry figure. The Almighty Man anticipated it with lightning speed and grabbed Chi Su's arm, making it impossible for him to escape, and then grabbed his head.

He used both hands to crush Chi Su's head like a hydraulic press.

Kaka!

There was a clear sound of the skull being overwhelmed, and Chi Su's eyes widened in horror. No one understood his fear at that moment. The instinct for survival drove him to punch the Almighty Man's chest with his fists as fast as lightning.

Boom boom boom!
A series of heavy punches carrying terrifying kinetic energy broke through the Almighty Man's bulletproof suit, leaving red marks, and then blood oozed out of his skin, turning red and purple.

Circles of air waves exploded one after another, and the Almighty Man's chest was hit as hard as an eight-magnitude earthquake, damaging his internal organs and causing him to cough up blood.

Even so, his eyes were as fierce as a wolf biting its prey's neck. He stared at Chi Su, whose eyeball was squeezed out of his head, and would not let go.

Vitrum's elite warriors, with thousands of years of combat experience.

Let him know that only this method of mutual destruction is the most reliable way to kill this man!

The fate of a prey whose neck is bitten by a wolf is already determined.

The terrifying reaction force broke Chi Su's fists. Even though he beat the Almighty Man's chest with his fists like flails desperately and helplessly until the last moment, it didn't change anything. In the end, his head was crushed to death.

It seems slow, but in fact it only takes a moment.

The two of them were so fast that even the Eternal Man and his men were unable to rescue them in time.

"Do not!!"

Seeing Chi Su die, Yongshengxia and others were shocked and horrified.

As long as Chi Su is alive, they still have a chance to escape when facing the Omni-Man.

After dealing with Chi Su, the Almighty Man secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and his cold eyes swept over the others like a knife.

The person he stared at froze instantly, a chill running up his spine, as if the cold and pale hand of death had grabbed the back of his neck.

Soon, the Eternal Man, War Girl, Martian, Green Ghost and others were killed one after another by the Omnipotent Man like cutting melons and vegetables.

Dark Wing was grabbed by one of his legs by the Omni-Man and thrown to the ground and smashed into a pulp. His death was the most miserable.

The Aquarius fishman's head was smashed like a watermelon by the Omni-Man who snatched the War Girl's hammer from him.

The green ghost reacted slowly, and the Omni-Man smashed her head with his claws in the blink of an eye, and also crushed the green stone that gave her the magical ability to become invisible.

The Martian in the middle deformed his body and tied his arms like cloth around Omni-Man, trying his best to give War Girl and Eternal Man the opportunity to attack Omni-Man's head, causing him some trouble.

But they were just some flesh wounds, no internal injuries like those caused by Chi Su's lightning-fast punches.

The Omnipotent Man tore the Martian's body apart with his big hands, pulled out the Martian's life core and threw it on the ground like garbage, violently twisted the War Girl's head behind her neck, and chopped off the Eternal Man's head with a knife.

It was bloody and brutal to the extreme.

No one could imagine how terrifying it would be if the powerful and gentle almighty hero in the eyes of the earthlings became a bloodthirsty demon.

The Global Guard was completely destroyed.

The Almighty Man was kneeling on the ground, his face covered in blood and breathing heavily. Looking at his hands covered in blood, he felt deeply tired and bored. His body went limp and he fell down, as if he had fallen into a coma due to his injuries.

Quiet.

——Dead silence!

The Global Guard headquarters, which had just been filled with a tremendous sound like an earthquake, was now unbelievably silent.

Russell knew it was time for him to enter.

He took a deep breath and stepped into the place where the most terrifying killer on earth existed without hesitation.
