Alien invasion? Luckily, I'm Superman.

The plan to reform Anissa was progressing smoothly. Perhaps it was the iron-fisted rule of the Vitrum Empire that left every Vitrumian lacking the feeling of being loved, so under the gentle offensive of the warrior arranged by Cicel, Anissa succumbed and was captured by love.

However, Cecilia didn't release her so easily; she wanted to observe her for at least a few more months to fully understand whether she had truly been captivated. Su Mo had no objection to this, as building trust did indeed take time.

Meanwhile, Su Mo, realizing that Mark's growth was too slow, sent Mark to another world with Levi to fight Mark's evil variant. Earth was too safe with Su Mo around, lacking real-life trials. He believed Mark would improve after being thoroughly beaten.

While waiting for Mark to leave, Su Mo glanced at the cosmic star map that Allen had left for Mark.

From Earth to Vitrum's home planet, full-speed travel would take about a day. Su Mo thought about it; he would soon be leaving the world of Invincible Young Hero. Even if Levi could report the arrival of the Vitrum aliens in time after he left, Su Mo might not be able to arrive immediately. It would be better to eliminate the threat in advance.

Thinking this, Su Mo quickly took to the air and instantly left the atmosphere. He manipulated the spacetime gravitational field with his body, directly pushing and compressing space to fly, ignoring cosmic resistance, and flew towards the Vitrum aliens' home planet in the Virgo Cluster at a speed of five million light-years per hour.

Vitrum is about 60 million light-years away from Earth, and Su Mo estimates it will take about twelve hours to reach it. (Note 1)

In space, Su Mo's figure was like a streak of light, quickly passing through one star system after another, the scenery behind him stretched into a magnificent ribbon.

Twelve hours passed in the blink of an eye. Su Mo slowly withdrew from the high-speed flight, having traversed 60 million light-years in one breath. Although his physical strength hadn't been greatly depleted, he still felt somewhat mentally exhausted.

Flying alone in the vast, empty universe, a strong sense of loneliness washed over Su Mo. He took a deep breath, sweeping away his negative emotions, and prepared to face the warriors of Vitrum with all his might.

Even before entering the Heng system where Vitrum is located, Su Mo could see Vitrum's enormous white star ring in space. Slender Vitrumian corpses, dressed in white combat suits, floated densely in Vitrum's orbit.

Su Mo swallowed hard, stunned by the scene before him. Although he had seen this scene in anime in his previous life, he still couldn't remain calm in the face of this shocking sight in person.

The Vitrumians may be an alien race, but their appearance is exactly like that of humans, which inevitably evokes a sense of shared sorrow.

Su Mo realized that if he hadn't awakened his superhuman powers, his Earth would likely be in the same dire state. This made him even more wary of the leader of the Planetary Alliance, Tedes, who had betrayed the Vitrumians.

That person would obviously stop at nothing to achieve his goal, and now that Earth has such a powerful being as Su Mo, it's impossible for Tedes not to use Earth to eliminate the Vitrum aliens.

Su Mo shook his head. Now was not the time to think about these things. This problem could wait until after dealing with the Vitrum aliens, then leave it to Cisel to worry about.

Su Mo quietly concealed himself and infiltrated the planet Witrum.

There's nothing noteworthy about the interior of the planet. The buildings on Vitrum were already badly damaged in the chaos following the death of the former king, and during the reconstruction process, Tedes released a natural disaster virus.

Now look what's happened; the facilities are gone, and most of the people are dead. The thoughts of the Vitrum aliens are truly beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

Using his super vision and super hearing, Su Mo located Regent Treig of Witrum in the palace.

At this moment, the other party was conducting his daily work in the throne room of the Imperial Palace. To be fair, despite the Regent's immense power, he handled state affairs quite well. At least better than most of the Vitrumians; only Tedes could rival Trigger.

Su Mo floated silently above the palace.

"Craig, are the Vitrum warriors ready to conquer Earth?" Trigger said to the kneeling Vitrum general Craig, his tone tinged with impatience. "This time, I hope we won't hear news of defeat again."

"Regent, I guarantee this time the outcome will be different." Craig raised his head and spoke confidently. "I will personally take to the field. I believe no one can survive being surrounded by four elite Witrum warriors."

"No need," Su Mo's voice came from above them. Sunlight shone on Su Mo's back, and her clothes fluttered gently in the breeze. Treig and Craig looked up simultaneously, their pupils slightly contracting.

Su Mo continued, "Because I'm here. The outcome will be the same this time. All of you, come at me!"

"Earthling, what is your purpose in coming to Witrum?" Trigger frowned, his tone contemptuous. "If you want to commit suicide, wouldn't going to a black hole be faster?" Clearly, Trigger was very confident and didn't take Su Mo seriously at all.

"Since you haven't made a move yet, let me explain my purpose." Su Mo ignored Cui Ge's sarcasm. "I hope you will willingly submit to me. Don't worry, I'm different from Tedes; I can give you a chance."

Su Mo directly offered to accept the offer of amnesty. Although he knew the other party would definitely not agree immediately, since they were going to fight anyway, he might as well say it in advance so he wouldn't have to repeat it later.

Sure enough, upon hearing Su Mo's words, the Regent laughed in anger. He reached out to stop Craig, who was about to rush forward, and then instantly sprinted forward, throwing a punch at Su Mo's face.

Su Mo stood with his hands behind his back, slightly turned to the side. Cui Ge's fist grazed his cheek as he rushed past Su Mo.

In that instant, Su Mo assessed the Regent's strength. Just like in the anime, he possessed strength approaching the peak of the planetary level, but he was inferior to Su Mo, and far inferior to the original Superman. He could fight with peace of mind.

The main issue is that the Regent's combat prowess is lacking. While the Vitrum aliens are supposed to possess the power to destroy a planet, there's not much visual evidence beyond that, and even then, it's primarily due to the power of the Incredible Gun. Therefore, Su Mo has difficulty assessing the Regent's true strength.

The thought process ended. Su Mo looked at the Regent on his right. At this moment, the Regent's old strength was exhausted and new strength had not yet been generated; he was still in a charging, punching stance.

In a flash, Su Mo moved in front of Cui Ge with his hands behind his back. Cui Ge's eyes snapped to Su Mo, his pupils reflecting Su Mo's swiftly withdrawn right hand.

The force of the punch gathered in Su Mo's right hand, stirring up dust. The Regent's body seemed to involuntarily move closer to Su Mo's fist.

Su Mo delivered a powerful uppercut, accompanied by a white shockwave, which struck the Regent's chin with pinpoint accuracy. Trigger's head snapped back, and he was blasted out of Witrum's atmosphere like a cannonball, leaving a massive gaping hole in the clouds. The shockwave pushed the clouds apart, creating a circular void.

As the Regent's body continued its rapid ascent through space, Su Mo appeared behind him in a flash. Another punch sent the Regent crashing back to Earth from space.

Like a shooting star, leaving a white-hot trail, Trigger's body fell limply toward the palace.

In the final moments before crashing into the palace, his mind, still reeling from Su Mo's punch, finally cleared somewhat. He forced himself to regain control, momentarily changing direction, and slammed headlong into a desolate wasteland outside the palace. A huge crater exploded in the ground, sending debris and dust billowing into the sky.

Note 1: Before checking the data, I didn't know Superman's speed was this fast. Normally it's 1000 light-years per hour, but it could be even faster.
