Chapter 666 The Death of God



Daily Planet.

"I said it, exclusive!" Editor-in-Chief Perry shouted, "Exclusive news, this is what I need! It's not the moment in the park when a dog catches a Frisbee, nor is it a shot of a group of pigeons taking off.

You know what I mean! "

"Yeah, I guess you're right, boss."

Superman's good friend and photographer Jimmy Olsen lowered his head and was scolded.

"But it's not my fault. The big blue guy rarely appears in the metropolis these days. And I can't always be the first to appear on the scene."

"Maybe you can talk to him and let him tell you his itinerary in advance."

Louise joked with a smile as she leaned against the window in the back.

"Aren't you his good buddy? Maybe you can go squat with him on that street in advance."

"I never said that"

Clang.

That was the sound of the editor's teacup falling from the table. Tea splashed, interrupting the conversation.

What followed was a violent vibration.

A piece of exquisite handmade jewelry fell from the top of the nearby filing cabinet, causing the LCD computer screen to fall over. The chandelier shook a few times and then fell from the roof, smashing to pieces on the ground.

A dazzling arc of light reflected on the window, drawing a bright burning trajectory.

"Caesar's ghost," the editor dropped the cigarette from his mouth, "What is this?"

The sky of the entire metropolis became brighter, as if countless stars broke free from their restraints and turned into a meteor shower all over the sky and fell towards the earth. They cut through the sky like silver arrows, fast and sharp, like the sun falling from the sky.

The metropolis was immediately swept into chaos. The rolling black clouds were penetrated by countless fireballs, like burning cracks in mid-air. An electronic billboard was smashed through, a huge hole was made in the water tank on the roof, and the water fell down.

The entire street was in chaos, with honks, screams and the sounds of buildings collapsing.

"Olson!" Editor-in-Chief Perry shouted, "Quick! Go downstairs and see if you can."

"He's gone a long time ago, Perry." Louise said, "The instinctive reaction of a good reporter."

The sky is full of meteor showers, but for photographer Jimmy, who has been on the front line of Superman's battle scenes all year round, it is just a small scene. Just in case, he still pressed the emergency paging button Superman gave him when he went downstairs, although he felt that Superman should already know the situation here.

Oh, I just hope that the screaming voice in the air is not him.

Obviously this is not just a natural disaster, there seems to be something stirring behind the black clouds. There was dull thunder, and there seemed to be some violent impact, and it was also accompanied by someone's scream.

At this moment, a car on the roadside suddenly braked suddenly. The taxi behind it couldn't stop quickly and slammed into the other side's butt. The front of the car was deformed due to the impact, and smoke hissed from the hood.

The taxi driver kicked the door angrily and came out, waving his fist: "Hey! Are you a new country bumpkin? Why should such a small scene suddenly stop? It's your first day in the metropolis, right?

This happens on average twice a week! "

Jimmy: "."

Immediately after that, something shot down from the center of the black cloud.

It was faster and fiercer than every previous meteor, falling at full speed as if out of control. Powerful air currents swept along, creating strong winds in the city, and the air was squeezed and deformed. The moment the thing landed, all the vehicles on the street were blown up by the air waves, like boats capsized by huge waves, and were thrown into the air one after another. The car body rolled in the air, making a deafening impact sound, like a hammer hitting the ground, deforming and shattering instantly.

"Oh my God."

Jimmy shivered all over, looked around and found that he seemed to be fine. Looking up again, it turned out that he had moved several kilometers away at that critical moment, and the destroyed block was braving the flames on the other side of the street.

The same goes for the people who were originally around him.

"Is everyone okay?"

Of course he is Superman.

The people around him burst into cheers and applause. Once again, their lives are saved by Superman, as happens when you live in Metropolis.

"Sorry for being late. I happened to be near Mars when I heard the signal. Everyone, stay back."

Superman walked through the black smoke and landed on the edge of the deep pit in the middle of the street.

But even though he said this, Jimmy naturally couldn't retreat obediently. He ran back with his camera in hand.

The red-hot heat still remained on the edge of the huge pit, and black smoke was rising from the pit. And in the middle of that huge pit, there actually looked like a person.

Of course, it won't be ordinary people. It is impossible for any normal creature to remain intact or at least a complete corpse after falling from a height outside the atmosphere.

A human being wrapped entirely in black tights.

"I recognize him." Superman frowned.

"Huh? Are you familiar?" Jimmy asked.

Superman shook his head: "I'm not familiar with him, but he has appeared in the Justice League affairs and we have dealt with him. He is a new god named Metron.

He is an explorer, neither good nor evil, and belongs to neither the Father nor the Apocalypse camp among the New Gods. The only thing he cares about is the pursuit of knowledge. "

But now Metron is dead.

Even Superman is not sure what the death of a god means.

Jimmy was confused after hearing this and scratched his head: "So he should be considered an ally?"

"Sometimes, yes. But not sure."

Superman stopped at this. He levitated and began to look around, as if looking for something.

"What, are there any enemies?"

Jimmy suddenly became nervous. He held the camera and shrank back, as if he would run away as soon as something went wrong.

After being a reporter for a long time, you can’t run any slower.

"No. I'm looking for a chair?" Superman looked confused.

"What chair?"

"Metron's chair is called the 'Moebius Chair'. He is always sitting on the chair at all times. It has a built-in mother box driver, allowing him to travel between any time, space and dimension. .

And I heard that it also knows everything that has ever happened in the multiverse from the beginning to the end of time, all known knowledge. The person who sits on the chair will receive the curse of omniscience and know all the knowledge in the universe. "

Jimmy was shocked: "So powerful?"

Then he muttered softly: "If I could have something like this, I wouldn't think it was a curse."

“Having too much knowledge can sometimes be a curse.”

Superman shook his head.

"His chair is missing, and maybe that's important."

He directly connected to the alliance channel.

"Justice League, this is Superman, emergency assembly. We may have an important situation, Supergirl, please help us inform 'Ultraman', okay?

Yeah, I think this might just be the beginning."

".We are going to face potentially some very serious situations."
