Chapter 367 The actors are in place
Looking at the Clark I saw earlier, Thor and the Transformer Arcee I just met, and David, the lord of Winter City, slowly disappeared in front of my eyes.
Clarice, Bobby the Iceman, and Katie the Phantom Cat still haven't completely calmed down.
Like Bobby the Iceman and Katie the Phantom Cat, both are beginning to realize that what Blinking Clarice described to them not long ago does not seem to be an exaggeration.
The real situation of this cold winter city is even more outrageous than what Clarice described at the beginning.
"I suddenly started to look forward to it." Katie slowed down for a while, and finally regained her composure. She began to be curious about this city, wondering what novel things she could see in this place.
"Me too."
Bobby the Iceman, too, can't wait to start touring the city, and the next thing they both throw at Clarice: "Where do we start?"
"this…"
"Let me show you around!" Gwen appeared in front of Clarice at the right time, and suggested that he take her and her two partners around.
When Clarice came to Cold Winter City earlier, it happened that Gwen brought Dr. Otto Octavius to Cold Winter City, and they had a simple visit together.
So Clarice and Gwen also know each other, and as a young woman, Gwen will naturally make people less wary.
In addition, Gwen's personality and affinity also made it easy for her to gain the favor of strangers, so neither Bobby nor Katie objected. After introducing themselves to each other, they followed Gwen to visit Winter City...
At the same time, David, Arcee and Thor followed Clark to the DC movie universe.
David has gained the ability to come to this world freely after the Goldfinger upgrade, but with Clark taking him with him, he can accurately arrive at the correct place.
Otherwise, he doesn't even know where he will 'land'.
It’s okay if it’s on the earth, but it’s embarrassing if it’s on an alien planet. Here he can’t summon Steve to help him open the portal, and the ability he just acquired from Blinking can’t teleport so far for the time being. distance.
"Where is this?"
"My hometown."
Clark brought a few people to his hometown in Kansas. This kind of rural place has always been unobtrusive, and the place is spacious enough to entertain his friends from other worlds.
"Who is this…"
"This is Thor from Asgard, the son of Odin. This time he came here to help."
"Clark Kent, just call me Clark, thank you very much for your enthusiastic help."
"You are welcome."
Clark knew that Thor came to help for David's sake. In fact, when he saw Thor, he already knew Thor's identity.
When he went to the Marvel Universe last time, he read the information about the relevant members of the Avengers, but this was the first time the two met officially, so he said a few routine-like polite words.
As for Arcee, Thor, who lived in Winter City for a while, knew Arcee, and Clark knew that Arcee was a Cybertronian, but there was no contact between the two of them, it was a greeting to each other when they met, and then nothing the situation below.
"Here...do you want something to drink?"
"Beer!" Thor didn't know how to be polite, so he answered truthfully when Clark asked him.
David said that he is free to drink.
As for Arcee...
"There's gasoline and diesel in the garage."
"Don't bother, I have plenty of energy now."
Since she came to Cold Winter City, she has never worried about energy issues. Whether it is the holy light or the special crystal mine of Winter City, it can keep the Cybertronians in a state of abundant energy.
Nowadays, with the development and improvement of various technologies in Winter City, crystal mines are no longer used in various aspects as they were at the beginning, but are used purely as renewable energy and special materials, and the production has been increasing, making Cybertron Human beings completely got rid of the energy crisis, and began to recover and re-develop the scientific research work that had been stagnant for an unknown number of years.
Under such a big environment, Arcee does not need to rely on gasoline and diesel to supplement her energy.
In addition, due to the influence of her physical condition, she gradually disliked getting herself covered in oil and smells, and preferred to supplement her consumption with non-polluting pure energy.
Although Arcee said so, Clark's mother came over to greet them with beer and ice water.
Looking at these "son" friends who suddenly appeared, the famous Martha was full of curiosity.
David didn't mind, let the other party look at him, and at the same time discussed with Clark what to do next?
"General Zod has issued an ultimatum through the public signal of the invasion of the earth: If the earth does not hand me over, an attack will be launched against the earth."
Clark went to David when General Zod issued an ultimatum. Counting from this moment, Clark has 24 hours to prepare.
"That's fine." Although she is a adoptive mother, Martha, who raised Clark from childhood, sees no difference between this son and her own.
As a mother, she doesn't think so complicated, as long as her son is safe.
Although I don't know where these people in front of me come from? Who is it? But as long as he came to help his son, he was a good person!
"Shall we go straight to Zod?"
"Now?"
"yes!"
"No." David shook his head: "It would be a good plan to do this before Zod issued an ultimatum to notify the people of the whole earth, but now that your existence has been known to the people of the earth, the next thing... it is best to Known to the people of the earth.
It is best to expose Zod's true thoughts in a live broadcast around the world, so that Superman can stand on the side of "justice".
Otherwise, it would be a big battle to rush up directly. Even if it just falls down and smashes some flowers and plants, someone will keep jumping out to accuse Clark.
In addition, David has to expose a fact: the complexity of this world is far beyond the imagination of human beings. At that time, they will find how happy it is that Superman will firmly stand on the side of human beings.
"Wait until tomorrow day, in front of the global human beings, put on a big show."
"Although I know you're doing this for my own good, I'm still a little worried."
"Don't worry, Tony won't come this time."
"..."
Clark was speechless, but felt that what David said made sense.
Clark, who has been with him for a while, knows what kind of character Tony is. If Tony also comes over, he will definitely make more noise than David, and maybe he will reveal his true identity.
No matter what, Clark, who knew what to do next, was not at all confused, and quietly waited for the arrival of the next day.
Then, he will go to the US military to make a face first as David said, get in touch with General Zod, and ask for face-to-face negotiations with him.
To do this, the first thing is to draw General Zod out of the spaceship. In addition, the military base is established in a relatively desolate desert and Gobi area, where fighting will not cause damage to the city, let alone accidentally injure civilians.
As for how to broadcast the conversation between General Zod and Superman to the whole world, this task is left to Arcee.
As a Transformer who also incorporates the abilities of a hermit warrior, although Arcee is not as easy to break through the firewall to steal secret intelligence information as Confused.
But if it's just hacking public signals, it's not difficult for her.
As for the perspective...
"Arcie, remember to take a picture of me tomorrow."
"No problem, Your Excellency the Duke."
Just when David and Arcee kept discussing camera positions, lenses, filters, angles, and poses; when Thor drank the third case of beer that Clark brought back specially, the sun finally rose.
I don't know why, but when the sun came out, Clark had a strange feeling: he was finally freed!
After hugging his mother Martha, telling her not to worry, Clark flew straight into the sky and headed straight to the nearby military base.
David also stood up, raised his hand and made a simple spell-casting gesture. The casual clothes on his body changed into the Lightbringer suit after a stream of brilliance flowed from his neck to the bottom of his feet.
In addition to the crown-shaped helmet, he also gave himself an extra large cape to make himself look more majestic.
In addition, Thor has been wearing his own armor all the time, and the red cloak on his body is also conspicuous. Martha looked at the two and suddenly smiled: "You also have a cloak."
"Yeah! So me and Clark are very good friends!"
David waited while chatting with Martha, Thor, and Arcee, and kept paying attention to the conversation coming from the 'earphones'.
Clark has already contacted the U.S. military, and the other party has shown "restraint" and has agreed to help Clark talk to General Zod face to face.
Maybe the U.S. military also wants to get in touch with this group of aliens at close range, and there may be some tentative thoughts, but these Davids don’t care.
After confirming that things are going in the direction he planned, and after estimating that the time is almost up, it is time for him to set off.
"Are you coming with me, or waiting for my signal?"
"Together, of course." Thor is not a character who hides in the dark and waits for the right time. He prefers to fight face to face with a clear battle.
In fact, he has restrained a lot. According to his previous personality, he had already killed General Zod's spaceship last night.
The two flew to the sky together, the difference is that David is flying with the energy force field, while Thor... he still hasn't got rid of his dependence on Mjolnir, and he is dragged by the hammer to fly.
"I don't know if a fight with the Kryptonians can stimulate Thor's potential?"
