Alien invasion? Luckily, I'm Superman.

After saying goodbye to Strange, Su Mo returned to his Sky Eye Society base.

It has been over a year since Su Mo left. During this time, the Sky Eye Society has developed exceptionally well. With the resources of Asgard being allocated to it, the Sky Eye Society's reach has spread to every corner of the globe.

Moreover, with the combined efforts of the Sky Eye Society and the Sky Sword Bureau, Hydra was completely eradicated. Some remaining Hydra forces attempted to escape from space, but were intercepted by Asgardian warships; their ships were destroyed and their crews perished, with none escaping.

The vast majority of Hydra agents are secretly recruited by Sky Eye under the name of Hydra. Once the so-called "snake heads" are eliminated, the remaining agents have no idea who they are working for. As time heals all wounds, they will become completely part of Sky Eye.

"Wanda, will FAST (Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Telescope) encounter any major problems while I'm away?"

Su Mo sat in his office chair, which he hadn't done in a long time, and looked at the increasingly experienced deputy director of the Sky Eye Association, and asked.

"Boss, while you were away, one of the Hydra agents I hypnotized was released from the hypnosis."

Wanda stood with her hands behind her back in front of Su Mo's desk, reporting to him, her glasses gleaming.

"But the other party did not leave in the end, but instead voluntarily served the Sky Eye Society. That person is Crossbones, who is now the captain of the Sky Eye Society's Death Squad, specializing in secretly handling supernatural issues for the Sky Eye Society."

Suddenly, a book appeared out of thin air in front of Wanda and landed on Su Mo's desk, startling him.

"What is this?" Su Mo frowned.

"Uh... Boss, this is the Dark Tome of the Demon God Sithon." Wanda glanced to the side guiltily and explained, "It suddenly appeared one day when I was training in chaos magic, and it has been popping up ever since. Even if I destroy it, it will keep appearing."

Su Mo looked at the Dark Book, feeling a bit overwhelmed. "Dark Book, you haven't opened it, have you? Whatever you do, don't open it, or you might not be yourself anymore, you'll just become their puppet. I'll think of a solution later."

Su Mo muttered to himself, "Why is Sithon fixated on Wanda from this universe? Wouldn't the Wanda from the main universe be better? Looks like I'll have to try having Strange use magic to block it."

"Wanda, after you've finished your business, go to Kamar-Taj and see the Sorcerer Supreme, Strange, and see if he has a solution."

"Okay, Boss."

After Wanda left, Su Mo looked at her left hand. The bracelet on it shimmered slightly under the light.

"I already have Levi, who's much better than the bracelet, so perhaps I can destroy it. I only kept the bracelet because I didn't have a better way to teleport across universes. But this thing is clearly part of someone's conspiracy, and I unconsciously ignore it every time I think about it. If my strength hadn't increased, I would never have realized this. And that drop of mysterious metal inside me, I wonder what it is?"

Su Mo pondered for a long time before finally removing the bracelet and storing it at the very bottom of the Sky Eye Society's base, near the Earth's mantle. The bracelet was locked in a safe encased in multiple magical seals and alloy layers.

After finishing, Su Mo returned to his office and asked his subordinates to notify Levi to come over.

Levi has joined the Sky Eye Society and is responsible for communicating the four universes recorded by Su Mo.

"After returning to avenge my Earth, it's time to head to the DC multiverse. Whether it's my past or the hidden conspiracies, it's time to settle things. Luckily, Levi has the coordinates for a DC universe; he's checked it out, and it's a relatively safe place."

Levi quickly approached Su Mo: "Director Su Mo, what are your orders?"

"Levi, do you remember that world you went to where you encountered the bat monster? Take me there," Su Mo said slowly.

"Okay." Levi walked up to Su Mo and opened a green portal. Su Mo and Levi went inside.

That night.

As Su Mo emerged from the portal, he immediately heard a chaotic cacophony of shouts and curses. The surroundings were filled with the sounds of gangland shootouts and blaring police sirens. In the distance, there were gunshots, screams, and the screeching of tires on the ground.

It seems this is Gotham City, the city of sin where Batman, the father of DC, resides.

"Alright, Levi, you can go back now. I'll let you know if anything happens." Su Mo took the communicator, which was imbued with Levi's superpowers, from Levi's hand. It could send messages across universes.

He added, "We can bring a few Vitrum aliens to Earth, the Earth Federation's planet, for security purposes."

Levi nodded, opened the portal again, and left.

After watching Levi leave, Su Mo flew up to a tall building, looked down at the chaotic Gotham City below, and silently shook his head.

"I wonder what time it is now? Has Superman debuted yet? Has the Justice League been formed?"

As Su Mo pondered this, he prepared to leave Gotham City. But before he could even descend the stairs, he heard the whistling sound of darts behind him.

Three batarangs spun through the air, aiming for the back of his head, the back of his heart, and the back of his knees, respectively.

Su Mo caught one with his backhand, while the rest were deflected by his steel body and fell to the ground with a clatter.

who is it?

He turned around and saw the iconic black pointed-ear hood.

Okay, no need to guess anymore, it's Batman.

Moonlight streamed down, and a large, humanoid bat with pointed ears stood on the edge of the rooftop, casting a long shadow behind it. Because it was facing away from the moonlight, only its triangular white eyepieces could be seen in its dark silhouette, glowing eerily in the darkness.

From Batman's exclusive domain—Fear Creation!

Su Mo knew that this superhero, who started showing off as soon as he appeared, was just someone with money to burn, and that he relied entirely on technological equipment, fighting skills, and his brain to fight. But seeing him in person, Su Mo still couldn't help but wonder if he really possessed some special abilities, like turning into a bat or something.

"Who are you? What are you doing in Gotham?" Batman's voice was hoarse and sinister, as if it were being ground out from the depths of his throat.

Su Mo scratched his head, looked at Batman with a sincere expression, and said, "Uh... I was just passing by, do you believe me?"

A smoke grenade popped from Batman's belt and landed on the ground between the two men. Thick white smoke exploded instantly, engulfing the entire rooftop.

Okay, it seems Batman doesn't believe it. Well, there's no other way, we'll have to fight.

But Su Mo remained completely unfazed. Batman's invincibility, especially his ability to consistently sabotage his teammates, stemmed primarily from his intelligence capabilities. By understanding the enemy and meticulously analyzing their weaknesses, he repeatedly overcame formidable adversaries, achieving seemingly impossible victories time and again.

But Batman, facing himself without intelligence, is bound to suffer. Didn't he use a completely ineffective smoke bomb without knowing Su Mo's superhuman vision?

Through the thick smoke, Su Mo could clearly see Batman silently slithering through the smoke, circling around to his side and behind.

Su Mo smiled slightly. Batman was startled; he clearly realized from Su Mo's gaze that the other could see through the smoke. He began to retreat, firing his grappling hook backward, preparing to leave.

Su Mo appeared behind Batman like a ghost in an instant, his right hand outstretched, intending to knock him unconscious. Just as Su Mo's fingers touched the skin on the back of Batman's neck...

A burst of green powder shot out from a hidden compartment in the Batman wristband, heading straight for Su Mo's face.

It is kryptonite powder.

Caught off guard, Su Mo inhaled the powder, and his body suddenly went limp, his legs buckled, and he collapsed to the ground. A feeling of powerlessness surged from the depths of his bones, as if all his strength had been drained away.

Batman dropped his grappling hook and strode over to the fallen Su Mo, looking down at him with a voice still hoarse and deep: "Tell me, what is your purpose?"

Su Mo was utterly speechless. Was Batman really that wary of Superman? Carrying Kryptonite around? He had no idea how Batman figured out he was a Kryptonian. But there was no need to ask, because the answer was always the same: "Because I admire Superman!"

Just as Batman bent down to approach Su Mo, preparing to interrogate her further, the pudding inside Su Mo suddenly moved.

Several black tentacles shot out from Su Mo's shoulders and back, wrapping around Batman's neck, arms, and legs. Batman's body was instantly lifted into the air, unable to move.

At the same time, the kryptonite powder in Su Mo's body was quickly expelled by Pudding.

Su Mo stood up from the ground, dusted himself off, looked at Batman who was hanging in mid-air by Pudding's tentacles, and told Pudding to put him down, his tone calm.

"Batman, does this prove I meant no harm?" He paused, "or rather—Bruce Wayne."
