An Unexpected Accident

Rex is dead...

His head was gone, he couldn't be deader...

"Report, this is Robot. Cissels, I have something to report to you. I'm very sorry, Rex has fallen."

Robot reported the situation on the scene to Cissels.

Global Defense Bureau.

After learning of Rex's death, Cissels clenched his fists. Another Superhero had died, and he was helpless.

"Bring up all the satellites. I want to know what exactly happened at that time?!"

"Why did a meteorite fall on Rex's head for no reason..."

Cissels crossed his arms over his chest. He knew someone was playing tricks, but no matter how cunning the criminal, there would always be a moment when they exposed themselves.

"Report, Director Cissels, perhaps there's no need to retrieve the satellite data. I deeply regret what happened to Rex, but it might truly have been an accident..."

"At the same time Rex's head was smashed by the meteorite, over three hundred areas in the city were hit by meteorites of varying sizes!"

"Thirty-odd people sustained minor injuries, and two were seriously injured. Fortunately, in this meteorite attack, only Rex died..."

"Well, and one unlucky guy robbing a bank."

The director's secretary, with blonde hair, glanced at the tablet in her hand and turned to report the latest intelligence and data to Cissels. 💢♣  🐺👍

"Over three hundred meteorite impacts across the city? Where did so many meteorites come from?"

Cissels did not believe Rex's death was an accident just because the whole city was affected. Any accident was, to some extent, inevitable. With his years of investigative experience, Cissels smelled a conspiracy in Rex's death.

"Report, Director..."

"The satellite images are ready. Shall I display them on the screen?"

After a flurry of activity, an employee of the Global Security Bureau retrieved the satellite data.

"Good."

Cissels nodded slightly. He wanted to see what had happened in space, why meteorites were falling to Earth, and why they hadn't received any warning.

"Displaying..."

The employee pressed the display button. Instantly, the Global Security Bureau's large screen began to play the images captured by the satellites in space.

In outer space...

A "small" meteorite, about thirty meters in diameter, was hurtling towards Earth at an unusually fast speed.

Several interceptor satellites deployed by the Global Security Bureau in outer space activated their automatic interception mode the moment they detected the meteorite. Since the meteorite wasn't "too large" for the Global Security Bureau's interceptor satellites, they didn't issue an emergency alert immediately. Only the lower-level programs sent a secondary warning to the higher-level programs...

Just as the meteorite entered the satellites' capture range and activated automatic interception mode, a white figure shot through the satellites and slammed into the thirty-meter-diameter meteorite...

As countless meteorite fragments scattered outwards, the images from the satellites affected by the impact briefly pixelated for less than a second.

The next second, after the automatic interception satellites detected that the meteorite had been "destroyed," according to system logic, they canceled the previously uploaded secondary warning and returned from interception mode to observation mode.

With clarity comparable to Blu-ray, it recorded the sight of the white-clothed man who had destroyed the meteorite, drifting in space...

Bathed in the sunlight of the vacuum of space, the large "F" on the white-clothed man's chest seemed to glow faintly, and even the man himself seemed imbued with a divine aura.

Immediately after, the white-clothed man, confirming that the meteorite threat was resolved, adjusted his direction and became a blur. He continued to save Earth!

Without a doubt, the man who shattered the meteorite was Jupiter!

"What do you all think?"

Cissels felt a headache coming on. Everything looked so natural that even he was beginning to suspect it was an accident...

But Cissels's experience and intuition told him this was absolutely not an accident. It was more like a premeditated and organized murder. Yet, Cissels's reason told him it was an accident.

"It's clear that Rex's incident was an accident. Very few people have been killed by meteorites in the past century, but it's not unheard of. This is not an event with a zero probability. Besides, with our current interception technology, we might not be able to do better than Jupiter!"

"Undoubtedly, Jupiter saved Earth. He is a hero."

Cissels's secretary said softly after watching the recording.

"An accident, an accident, all accidents?!"

Cissels was furious, but he had no evidence.

"A hero who killed the Global Guardians and one of my soldiers?! What a joke!"

Cissels clenched his fists and muttered to himself.

"Jupiter, you'd better not let me catch you."

Cissels stared at the ceiling of the Global Security Bureau, lost in thought. Although he inwardly warned Jupiter to be careful and not let him catch him, Cissels knew in his heart that even if he caught Jupiter red-handed, he would be powerless against him. With current human technology, even nuclear weapons would be insufficient to threaten Virtumians like Jupiter and Omni-Man.

Time rewinded thirty minutes ago...

Jupiter transformed into a white afterimage, breaking through the atmosphere and instantly soaring into the sky.

He passed through the steel walls formed by intercepting satellites and arrived before the meteor predicted to fall to Earth.

He fiercely swung his fist.

His burning fist slammed into the meteor, instantly creating countless cracks on its surface. Under the satellite's illumination, it finally shattered into countless pieces of dust.

The sky filled with dust and meteor fragments, obscuring every satellite camera at the moment of explosion. The Global Defense Bureau's advanced satellites detected the blocked cameras and automatically activated their cleaning function, clearing the blurry lenses...

This was an amount of time too short for ordinary people to even react, but for Jupiter, floating in space, it was enough.

He gently raised his right hand and revealed a rock fragment the size of a washbasin clutched in his palm.

Then, Jupiter determined a direction and hurled it violently towards the blue planet before him.

The rock fragment entered the atmosphere at an even faster speed...

The rock tore through the atmosphere, slashed across the sky, and continuously rubbed against the air, igniting into fierce flames. It shattered the clouds and birds blocking its path, anything that obstructed it! It advanced towards its target with an unstoppable, menacing force...

It finally destroyed the wall blocking its path, pierced through someone's chest, and struck the head of some foul-mouthed king. After a series of frictional losses, the fist-sized meteor landed inside a house, the immense impact causing the interior to shake violently...

"Die, Rex!"

"Cissels, take your Global Security Bureau and eat my shit!"

Jupiter glanced disdainfully at the surrounding satellites, adjusted his direction, and headed towards Britain...

Rex, that grandson of a bitch, Cissels, that little brother, how can they fight against my Ancestor Person Nolan?!
