Earth had no way out!

Gordon's early rise to power is certainly a good thing, but it's not all good.

He's too young now, just like Batman.

In fact, Gordon is not young; he is already over forty. However, the young police officers he mentors are too young to be promoted to mid-level management positions, and he cannot provide them with sufficient support.

This resulted in Gordon rising to power alone. As the deputy chief's position was quickly filled by others and as positions in powerful departments were occupied, Commissioner Gordon's connection with lower-ranking officers was severed by these mid-level officers.

In other words, Commissioner Gordon has been sidelined.

His time was filled with tedious administrative work, leaving him no time to hear or see the real situation at the grassroots level. His instructions and orders were filtered, distorted, and altered by the middle management, becoming a burden for the grassroots police officers.

In just one month, Gordon's good reputation, built up over a decade, has run into serious trouble.

Having learned his lesson, Gordon sought out Batman, who had resumed his activities, and approached this "criminal" whom he had taken notice of and developed feelings for.

Seeking advice.

"What should I do?" Gordon asked earnestly.

Batman replied more seriously, "I don't know. I'm just a vigilante, not a government official. I don't understand your convoluted stuff."

Seeing the disappointment in Gordon's eyes, Batman said, "But I can give you some advice."

Gordon was overjoyed. "Please speak."

Batman looked up and pointed to the green path peeking through the gaps in the Skyscraper: "Go to the Fantastic Forest and seek guidance from Mr. Shazo."

Gordon's face turned extremely grim. "Go find that madman with blood on his hands?"

Batman sneered, "Gordon, you've developed such a boring prejudice since becoming director."

"If you want to solve this problem, go ask ' Fantastic '."

"If you insist on clinging to your boring prejudices, then so be it."

After saying that, Batman flicked his cape, jumped off the side of the Skyscraper, and glided away, his cape billowing out.

Gordon did not make a decision immediately and continued to struggle with the problem alone.

Shazo has been extremely depressed for the past ten days or so because he has been harassed by a crazy woman.

Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy Pamela Lilian Isley relentlessly pursued him, wanting to follow him and become his underlings.

Pooh!

It's all a lie!

They are all bad people; they not only want to take advantage of Shazo for free, but they also want to change Shazo!

Harley wants Shazo to become a real Joker, to take her on adventures, to do exciting things, and to let her experience the true meaning of life.

Poison Ivy wants Shazo to become a true nature Gods, planting trees all over the world and completely overthrowing humanity's evil rule!

One by one, they all want to use him as a tool to satisfy their own selfish desires. It's truly despicable!

Shazo hadn't forgotten that he was a man who swore to save Gotham, and he wouldn't change his mind for a woman.

Absolutely not!

Then, in Shazo's magnificent palace, each of the two women occupied one of the main halls.

They moved their belongings in without a second thought, filling the huge palace to the brim; one resembled a comical weapons museum, and the other Totto Land plant greenhouse.

Who knew women could reproduce!

At some point, the Catwoman Selina Kyle moved in and filled a palace with stolen jewels, sculptures, gold, paintings, and other such items.

It's all stolen or robbed goods; it looks like something out of the British Museum.

Enraged, Shazo did not kill them, because none of the three women deserved to die, at least not yet.

If Shazo had killed the Joker a few years later, Harley Quinn would probably be dead.

Although three women can make a drama, the trouble they bring is not enough to affect Shazo, a rational madman. What bothers him is the chaotic timeline.

Fifteen days ago, Superman came to Shazo's Forest and confided his troubles to him.

Superman said he was being pursued by Lois, the woman whose life he saved, who had been looking for him. She eventually found his adoptive mother Martha, and thus found him.

Shazo was almost driven mad by that bastard Superman, because while Clark was saying he was troubled and unfortunate, the smile on his face was just too smug.

Damn love-struck fool, do you want to taste the flames of the FFF Group?

What?! This damn love-struck guy is Superman? Superman gets infinitely stronger just by being in the sun?

Okay, you're great. Go on, I'm listening patiently.

After being showered with dog food by Superman, Shazo also learned which timeline he had traveled to based on the details Superman told him.

The good news is, this isn't the most desperate Death Timeline.

The bad news is, this is the most illogical DC Movie Timeline.

Even worse news: Krypton General Zod of Krypton is coming, and a war in which all hopes are pinned on Superman is about to begin.

Shazo: Damn it, this is Kryptonian! Give me some more time, let me get stronger!

After Superman confided in Shazo, Shazo, who was so energetic that he didn't sleep for seven or eight days, began to try to sleep every day, attempting to return to the Dream Dimension of the Heavens once again and gain more power.

However, fate is most prone to playing tricks on people; what you fear most is what you will encounter.

Shazo was unable to attend the Dream Dimension Gathering, General Zod's communications appeared on screens across the entire Earth.

"You are not the only one, you are not the only one, not the only one..."

Perhaps due to forced content insertion, or perhaps due to the great distance, the noise in the signal was extremely high, which was transformed into dense noise and harsh static on the television.

Even the images on the television screen lost their color, displaying only blurry black and white images.

In the blurry image, a man dressed in black armor repeatedly says, "You are not the only one," while switching between different languages to display the same phrase.

As time went on, the transmitted signal gradually stabilized, the noise quickly disappeared, the harsh sound also disappeared soon, and the picture began to become smooth.

The armored man began to introduce himself, "I am General Zod, from the distant Krypton. I have traversed the endless sea of stars to arrive here in search of my people—"

General Zod's words silenced the entire world.

This was a proactive Third Kind Contact, and also the first time it was made public; everyone is trying to process the shock.

"My people's name is Kal-El," General Zod's voice continued, "He is hiding on this planet. I demand that you hand him over. He looks like you, but he is fundamentally different from you!"

"Those who know his true identity, the fate of Earth is in your hands—"

General Zod then addressed Superman: "Kal-El, listen up. I'm giving you one planetary cycle of time to surrender to me."

"Otherwise, the end of this planet will be your responsibility!"

After saying this, General Zod ended his speech, the interrupted television signal was restored, and the disrupted power system was returned to normal.

General Zod's forceful intervention was brief, and his speech was short, but its impact was unparalleled.

He confirmed a hypothesis for all people on Earth: that Earth is not alone.

There are indeed other intelligent life forms in the Universe beyond Earth.

Moreover, they sailed to Earth, not only deciphered English, but also naturally uttered threatening words.

This shows that the technology of this Krypton civilization far surpasses that of Earth.

The White House convened an emergency meeting, attended not only by senior government officials but also by representatives of the financial magnates who truly control the United States.

The Hawks general spoke first, "I don't think we need to be afraid. This alien just looks powerful and aggressive, but everyone should notice that they haven't launched a direct attack."

"Such powerful extraterrestrial beings haven't attacked our beacon, the jewel of our existence, which can only mean they're weak and are deceiving us."

The Doves official retorted, "General, can you guarantee that?"

The general was taken aback. "What do I need to guarantee?"

The civil official said, "The aliens must not be very powerful. They certainly wouldn't dare to go to war with us. They must be lying to us."

The general scoffed, "What nonsense are you spouting?"

"While this isn't our first encounter with aliens, I know absolutely nothing about Kryptonian, so of course I can't make any guarantees."

The civil official nodded in satisfaction. "Then we can't do it your way. At the very least, we can't just prepare for war. We must find Kal-El and seize the initiative!"

The Grand Leader was persuaded, and he asked, "So, the question now is: Who is Kal-El? Where is he? Are there other Kryptonian on Earth?"

The CIA director and the director of the Bureau of Investigation exchanged a glance. The director of the Bureau of Investigation spoke first, "I will immediately launch an investigation domestically."

The CIA director quickly added, "The CIA has launched an investigation globally."

The Grand Leader knew that intelligence couldn't be obtained so quickly, but he still said, "The Krypton General gave us Earth 24 hours, I can only give you 12 hours. You must give me an answer by then."

After a pause, the Grand Leader asked, "I have one last question: Where is Krypton?"

"----Okay, forget I asked."

"Furthermore, within 12 hours, I ordered the Army, Air Force, and Navy to inspect all nuclear weapons to ensure they are ready for use if necessary."

The Department of Defense stood up and replied firmly, "Yes!"

From that moment on, many people in the Americas in the Western Hemisphere suffered from insomnia, and countless people in Asia in the Eastern Hemisphere gave up going to work.

Everyone lived in constant fear.

But Shazo didn't. He began his preparations with great vigor, enthusiastically trying out all the power he possessed, determined to master it completely within 12 hours.

Since we can't rely on others, we should try our best.

While the movie "Steel Body" only portrays Superman as a Superhero, in the real world, Superhero are not limited to Superman.

Faced with the blatant and deadly threat from Kryptonian Zod of General Zod, the Superhero would never agree to stand idly by and wait to die. Like Shazo, they all silently prepared for battle.

A man in the Coast City turned off the television, went out onto the balcony, and looked up at the night sky.

With a cigarette dangling from his mouth, he casually found a delicate little box under a flowerpot on the balcony, then silently opened it and put the green ring inside on his finger.

In the Central City, a young man tossed and turned, unable to sleep, and finally got up to sew himself new gear and clothing.

In Star City, a man donned a long-forgotten Cloak and went to his family's shooting range, patiently adjusting his bow and arrows.

In the Gateway City, a valiant and beautiful female warrior frowned as she opened her personal armory and took out ancient weapons such as swords and shields that she hadn't used in a long time.

On a cliff overlooking the Boston sea, a burly man, naked, leaps into the ocean.

He even muttered to himself, "That's right, the sea must be safer than the land."

In a secret laboratory in New York City, a Black man sits up from a pool full of coolant, half of his body reflecting a dazzling light, and his left eye suddenly flashes red.

In Gotham City, the richest second-generation heir opened the Batcave's underground armory, where, among the seemingly endless array of modern weapons, there were also futuristic weapons far beyond the reach of this era.

But in the end, Bruce Wayne still put on the latest model of new armor.

In the minds of the wealthy, the newest and most expensive are the best.

Simply put, the belief of the wealthy is money!

As the United States landscape was illuminated by the rising sun, more than eight hours had passed since General Zod gave him his 24-hour deadline.

Faced with the threat of Kryptonian, most countries on Earth can do nothing but search for the Kryptonian hiding within their own borders.

Some countries can't even do that and have to rely on gangs or even drug lords to find people.

A responsible major power is different. While it is building up its military strength, it is also looking for Kryptonian in its vicinity. Its main strategy is to do both things well!

There's no way around it; ever since the Gulf War, everyone has been Thought Imprint with the belief that technological level determines the course of war, or even directly determines victory or defeat.

Since Earth's technology is not yet capable of traversing interstellar space, it was the Kryptonian who crossed the void to come to Earth, thus achieving Third Kind Contact.

The Kryptonian naturally held absolute initiative. After the war began, Kryptonian fought if they could win, and retreated if they couldn't.

It could even recreate the famous scene of Britain attacking the Qing Dynasty in 1840, attacking wherever it wanted, leaving the Earth only able to passively take the blows.

Therefore, few people are confident that they can defeat aliens, so they can only prepare to compromise.

But Shazo knew that this would be doomed to failure.

Because once General Zod senses the peculiarity of Earth's sunlight, he will immediately decide to occupy Earth, transform its environment into a Star Ring, and turn Earth into a second Krypton.

As for Earth's humans, they are completely outside the scope of the Kryptonian military template.

There is no way for Earth to retreat.
