I, V, Gotham Legend

Now that General Zod and Superman are in a hostile state, Noon feels that he should also launch a heavy attack on the flying spaceship.

The scientist manipulated the joystick carefully. He was not familiar with his own strength and always over-operated it accidentally.

The hulls of the three spaceships vibrated simultaneously, and gun turrets of the same standard and size rose from them at the same time.

The Kryptonian-style turrets were aimed at the still-rising spaceship. White light was gathering in each gun hole, and combined with the black hull of the spaceship, it looked like stars in the night sky.

The first round of attacks went straight ahead, with hundreds of lasers nailing into the ascending spacecraft like falling lightning, causing a brilliant explosion.

The loud bang was even heard inside the metropolis, and the citizens who were busy fleeing in panic could not help but stop and look back at the sky.

The fire from the explosion looked like a small red sun, and the black spaceship emerged from the flames and smoke like a head poking out from behind a curtain.

Noen took a deep breath. The first round of bombardment was just a feint, the purpose of which was to force the oncoming spaceship into the muzzle of the outer main gun. He did not expect that this spaceship would choose to withstand all the bombardment.

Although this level of bombardment would not destroy the spacecraft, it would definitely cause damage. Now that Krypton has been destroyed, the maintenance cost of each spacecraft is hellish.

Carl's spaceship was bathed in gunfire, which made the attacker Norn feel distressed.

Is the other party really not afraid of damage to the spacecraft?

Just as Norn was still pondering whether to launch a second wave of small artillery fire immediately, or aim and charge up for a big one, he noticed a flash of white light under the spaceship flying towards him.

It was an ordinary-looking gun barrel, with its white plastic outer wall out of place compared to the rest of the spacecraft.

But Norn looked very familiar with it. He had encountered this thing countless times when he was in the army. It was an orbital-level anti-aircraft gun.

The style is much smaller than what I remembered, and the power should not be enough to blow up an asteroid with one shot like in history, but it should be no problem to clear out these spaceships.

Norn was a little nervous for a moment, but he immediately adjusted his mentality and aimed the main gun of the spacecraft at the enemy.

Anti-aircraft guns of that level require sufficient energy to be fired once. The gravity of this planet is very strong, and it is obvious that the core has not been excavated, so it should not be able to be fully charged in such a short time.

That cannon is most likely a fake, made to look familiar and to scare people with its appearance.

Although he thought so in his mind, out of caution, Norn still let two unmanned spaceships block the way.

At such a close distance, it is impossible to dodge the artillery fire by moving. Both sides can only compete to see who can withstand more artillery shells before colliding.

The main guns of the three Kryptonian spaceships fired beams of light at the same time, and the distortion caused by the high temperature burning the air could cause mirages.

The anti-aircraft guns of Carl's spaceship were also fully charged at the same time. The ominous white light was like a boxer's fist, colliding with the beams of light shot out by the three main guns.

Valerie has returned to the cockpit of the spaceship. The impact of the wave has spread here, and the entire spaceship is heating up rapidly.

There was nothing she could do after the shells were fired, but watching the movie-like scenes, Valerie always wanted to do something.

So she called up the three-dimensional view, and the battlefield from a God's perspective constructed with green light appeared before her.

Valerie gestured with her little hands, manually shifting her perspective so that her spaceship was on the right side of her eyes.

Without mentioning the effect, Valerie's anti-aircraft gun successfully penetrated the three light columns and hit the nearest Kryptonian spaceship with a thunderous sound.

The Kryptonian spaceship was directly penetrated, and the scorching heat of the anti-aircraft gun and the aftermath of the impact caused the spaceship to disintegrate like a broken Rubik's cube.

Norn in the main ship looked at this scene in disbelief. He didn't expect the three main guns to destroy the opponent's spaceship immediately. A shot from the opposite side had already shattered one of his own ships.

"These are the only three ships left!" Norn couldn't help but shout out.

There are still many spaceships left on Krypton, but there are only a few that are equipped with military weapons and well-maintained like these three.

Norn gripped the joystick tightly, sweat appeared on his forehead, and he didn't dare to imagine how he would explain it to the general later.

Damn, where do they get their energy from?

As the rising spaceship got closer, Norn discovered that it was gathering power again.

Norn hurriedly pulled the joystick, wanting to let another ship come forward to take over, but because he was too anxious and didn't control the strength well, he pulled the lever directly and broke it.

"Oops!" Norn was already sweating profusely.

Valerie's second shell had been fully charged, and the terrifying light shot out again, this time directly piercing through the very center where Norn was.

The spacecraft was pierced and disintegrated like a Rubik's Cube, and the fragments fell from the sky to the ground like heavy rain.

Because the noise was loud enough, people on the ground had already noticed the battle between spaceships in the sky. The new spaceship quickly dealt with the two spaceships that were obviously preparing to attack, which made the ground troops confused and boosted their morale at the same time.

"What is Norn doing?" Zod, who was still being harassed by the Martian Hunter, almost popped his eyes out.

"You should have been prepared for this when you invaded this planet." Martian Manhunter stared at Zod with his red eyes. He held General Zod's ankle. "You can't even break through this harbor."

NO81. Face to face

Noen held his head. He thought he would be turned into ashes by the aftermath of the anti-aircraft gun bombardment, but with the high temperature and impact, he realized that he was just blown away a long distance.

The strong convective air at high altitudes tore at his body. Norn was not very skilled in standing firm in the air. His long curly hair, like instant noodles, was messy in the wind. He finally let go of his hands that were covering his face, but he didn't feel any pain from the wind blowing into his eyes.

There were three Kryptonian spaceships connected together, but only the last one was left, floating alone in the air. Norn calmed himself down and rushed towards the spaceship unskillfully.

The last spaceship! This is the most important tool to change the earth's environment! Norn even felt that in Zod's eyes, this spaceship was more important than his life.

Valerie's spaceship raised its guns again, and a new round of charging was already being prepared. Although Norn rushed between the two spaceships in an instant, it was obviously too late for him to control the spaceship to leave.

Noen could feel the heat of the anti-aircraft gun on his face, and he was at a loss for a moment. He just stared blankly, not knowing what to do.

His eyes were dry and painful, and he felt like he was about to cry. Norn widened his eyes, and orange-red light with high temperature shot out of his eyes.

This unexpected situation startled Noen. The thermal vision had already hit the anti-aircraft gun that was still charging. The high temperature stirring the air melted the white gun barrel.

When Norn finally got himself under control and stopped the spray of thermal vision, the barrel of the anti-aircraft gun had already melted, and the gathered energy dissipated like smoke from burnt food.

Norn looked at his masterpiece in disbelief, and then he looked back at the safe and sound spaceship behind him.

Although he had felt it after adapting to the yellow sun, it was only at this moment that Norn truly felt that he possessed abilities that were no less powerful than technological weapons.

Norn doesn't like to get involved in fighting personally. He always thinks that he is just a scientist and does not have the same powerful power as them. But now, he finally realizes the necessity of taking action in some situations.

Norn shifted his gaze away from the gun barrel. As a Kryptonian, he was very familiar with the standard structure of the detection spacecraft. He floated to the position theoretically closest to the cockpit.

Looking at the spaceship reflecting the sunlight under his feet, and recalling the feeling when the gun barrel was burned just now, Noen's eyes lit up red again, and hot rays of light shot out, piercing the hull of the spaceship like a device for burning iron in a steel plant.

The Kryptonian spaceship is made of solid material, and its liquid metal structure has a certain self-repair ability, but it is not a battleship after all. Even Norn's thermal vision is enough to melt a hole in the outer shell.

Valerie sat in the cockpit of the spacecraft. She looked at the three-dimensional view that looked like a fountain pool in front of her, and watched Norn complete his actions calmly.

As the harsh burning sound stopped, Valerie raised her head and stared at the Kryptonian floating in the sky through the opened skylight.

Seeing Valerie waiting for him in the cockpit, the Kryptonian was stunned for a moment, then silently floated into the room through the skylight he had just melted.

"Just because you blew up my two spaceships, do you think you won?" Norn stood in front of Valerie, staring at her pretty face with a serious expression with his blue eyes.

"As long as I know I have a chance of winning, I won't hide from the enemy." Valerie said with a stern face, but she could feel her heart pounding.

This was the strongest enemy she was ever going to face. Her extraordinary perception was urging her to escape, and her survival instinct made Valerie's hair stand on end as if she didn't exist.

Norn was silent for a moment, then sneered in a mocking tone: "You know what? Your heartbeat is as loud as a drum... Do you have such an instrument on this backward planet?"

"You still have the time to trash talk." Valerie laughed: "You look so serious, but you are actually very nervous, right? What's the matter? Are you afraid that your boss will punish you later? Or are you worried that you will really fall into my hands?"

Norn can detect Valerie's nervousness with his Kryptonian hearing, and isn't Valerie also keeping an eye on Norn with her scanning vision?

The scientists who seldom went to the front line were truly afraid of Valerie's back-up plan. It seemed that the previous resistance to bombardment and the installation of top-level weapons on ordinary spacecraft had indeed brought great psychological pressure to Norn.

Knowing that her opponent, the Kryptonian monster who could easily crush her to death, was also afraid of her, Valerie felt a lot less stressed.

Norn couldn't hold back his expression after his heart was seen through. His face looked like ice cubes. "You destroyed our two most important spaceships. Since you were able to transform this probe ship into this, I considered sparing your life and letting you work for us to atone for your sins... But now I have changed my mind. I want to kill you and use your head in exchange for the general's forgiveness."

"I see. That's why you got into the spaceship." Valerie stood up from her chair. "But you've talked too much. I'm waiting for the mechanism to start. What are you waiting for?"

As Valerie finished her words, the floor and ceiling of the spacecraft simultaneously spewed out black gas like a high-pressure water gun. A large amount of smoke and dust filled the entire room, like a thick fog rising in an instant.

Norn didn't understand what was going on. He stared blankly at the smoke and dust that blocked his vision.

"Do you think this will narrow the huge gap between us?" Norn frowned and squinted his eyes around the room.

Norn thought that if he remembered correctly, when he was first exposed to the yellow sun, he could see his bones through his palms for a period of time, which meant that he should have the ability of perspective.

He tried hard to recall how he felt at that time. His eyes were almost squinted into slits, but he couldn't see very far in the extremely low visibility environment.

Norn immediately realized that his clairvoyant abilities were being disrupted by the black mist.

His sensitive hearing was also blocked by the jet sound, and he was unable to distinguish between the noise and the heartbeat as he had just acquired the ability.

With beads of sweat dripping down his forehead, Norn finally realized where his previous uneasiness came from - the other party had obviously been in contact with Superman for a long time and might understand the Kryptonian's superpowers better than himself.

Norn's conjecture is not entirely correct. Most of Valerie's understanding of Kryptonian abilities comes from Data Man Old Joe, who has always been concerned about his son's physical condition and control over his abilities.

According to Old Joe's research, the Kryptonians' ability to see through things comes from the fact that their eyes can emit a kind of ray that Valerie can't understand. There are a lot of complicated principles, but Valerie finally understood that the perspective will be blocked by lead.

She had been busy modifying the spacecraft during the time it was launched. The concentration of lead powder in the spacecraft was now enough to kill an ordinary earthling on the spot. Fortunately, Valerie was not an ordinary person.

The high concentration of lead powder is just a trick. Valerie's main purpose is to delay time and wait for the opportunity to turn defeat into victory.

She hung on the ceiling with her mantis blade, and while Norn was still messy in the lead powder mist, she repaired the hole in the ceiling that was melted by the thermal vision, then jumped to the floor and activated the optical camouflage at the same time, blending into the environment.

NO82. Extreme One-for-One

Norn gave up looking for the target in the chaotic environment. With burning gazes in his eyes, he scanned in the direction of his impression.

Thermal vision is more effective than expected. The thick fog of lead powder is vaporized, and the thermal vision rushes into the fog like lighting marshmallows with a lighter.

Just as Valerie expected, the lead mist was just a trick. Norn's thermal vision instantly destroyed everything and even cut through the outer wall of the spacecraft.

But when Norn used his thermal vision to clear away all the lead powder and the mechanisms that sprayed lead powder like plowing the land, he found that Valerie had disappeared.

"Do you think I can't find you?" Norn focused his attention on hearing. The noise in the environment was much quieter at this time.

He heard the heartbeat as he wished, but the strange thing was that the sound came from all directions.

Norn looked around in surprise.

As a Kryptonian, he knew that this type of spacecraft had built-in speakers that could be transmitted to every corner, but this regular heartbeat could already achieve a resonance effect, which obviously could not be achieved by recording it in advance.

Just when Norn was still suspicious, a cool voice suddenly sounded from behind him: "What are you looking for?"

Hearing the familiar and hateful voice, Norn turned around immediately and saw the damn blue-haired woman.

Without saying anything more, Norn's footsteps created a sonic boom, and the floor shattered like an eggshell being smashed to the ground.

The speed of his outburst exceeded the limit of Valerie's reaction. In less than a blink of an eye, Norn had already rushed in front of Valerie. He threw a punch from his left hand with anger at being tricked, and the storm it created carried the power to destroy the world.

But the imagined scene of the mortal being blown into pieces did not appear. Norn's fist went through Valerie's body, and the feeling of hitting the air made Norn dream back to the Phantom Zone.

"Is this a projection?!" Noen stopped and shouted through gritted teeth.

"Although I don't intend to run away with my tail between my legs, it doesn't mean that I will honestly fight you head-on. That's no different from suicide." Valerie's voice rang out again, this time coming from all directions.

As if in coordination, one Valerie after another was projected in the room.

"Guess which one is the real me." Valerie's voice even sounded a little ethereal.

"You are using the information gap against me, right?" Norn laughed. "Use everything you can to do your best to inflict damage on the powerful enemy, just like I used to do."

Although he did not participate in many direct battles.

"But natives are natives after all. Do you think this spaceship is advanced? To me, it's just a basic exploration ship." Norn deliberately avoided the fact that the spaceship was equipped with more advanced anti-aircraft guns. "I know the principles of these projections very well."

All the Valeries turned to look at Norn, their pretty eyebrows furrowed at the same time.

But Norn remained unmoved. He paid attention to his listening at all times. His heartbeat still sounded like a drumbeat. Although he still couldn't tell the exact location, the rhythm was getting faster and faster. It was obvious that the woman was beginning to panic.

There was no exception. The woman was not among the projections... Even if she was, it didn't matter. Norn just flashed and appeared next to a small platform like a podium in the middle of the cockpit.

A chip-like card was inserted upside down on the table, and the card and the table merged, causing ripples to spread.

This is the operating center of a spacecraft. According to Earthlings, it is the key to starting the spacecraft, but it includes all the underlying systems of the spacecraft.

Norn hesitated for a long time, but still did not choose to destroy the key card on the spot, as this kind of thing is extremely difficult to reset.

Now that two spaceships have been destroyed, Norn is reluctant to part with this strange spaceship that could become a trophy, especially when the central codex that the general cares about and can allow the Kryptonians to reproduce is most likely on this spaceship.

He carefully pulled out the key card, then pressed down the small table with a little force in his palm.

The small platform connecting the key and the spacecraft shattered as if it had been hit by a construction hammer, and Valerie in the room disappeared on the spot.

Norn carefully put the key card into the wrist of his tights. There was no need to worry about the spaceship crashing. As long as the energy was not exhausted, the spaceship could always float in the air in a biological state.

The stereoscopic heartbeat sound around him stopped as the key card was removed, and the only remaining heartbeat was as conspicuous as the chirping of a cicada in the dark night.

Norn opened his eyes wide, and his thermal vision spurted out again. The high temperature stirred the air, and it shot towards the only remaining target with overwhelming force.

The thermal vision penetrated the air and penetrated into the wall. Norn turned his head slightly, and the thermal vision moved with his perspective.

As if cutting through the air, the heat vision sent sparks flying midway, but Norn continued to shake his head as if unaffected.
