Chapter 129
As night falls, the neon lights have transformed the entire steel city into a vibrant, sleepless metropolis.
It's been quite some time since Silver Surfer arrived.
To this day, no superhero on Earth has been able to find a way to counter him, and even the most powerful woman on Earth cannot keep up with his pace.
Panic and unease have begun to permeate the entire city.
If the power were to be paralyzed again, and strange weather phenomena were to occur, people would likely feel even more panicked and helpless.
Most importantly...
This is Utopia's sphere of influence.
If the invincible Number One Mutants cannot be dealt with, it will inevitably have a significant impact on the morale of the entire Utopia.
"The Supreme can definitely do it..."
Before this, Emma Frost had already learned where Su Chen had gone.
At the same time.
Under the cover of night.
Footage of the Silver Surfer, captured by satellite equipment, was continuously transmitted to major television stations.
"My God, that's so fast!"
Unfortunately, viewers watching on television, unless the video is played in slow motion, might not even be able to clearly see the Silver Surfer's exact figure.
"WARNING: The Silver Surfer, the Herald of Galactus, will be passing over Yorktown City from the east coast in half a minute. All citizens are urged to be extremely cautious. The entire city's power may be cut off at any time, and there are also unusual natural phenomena. Please do not leave your homes."
"I'll repeat myself, Herald of Galactus..."
This time.
Every resident of Yorktown City received this message.
It was supposed to be an advance warning, but the time allotted for everyone to react was less than half a minute. That was far too little time; no one could possibly make any preparations.
All we can do is pray that Captain Marvel Carol, can make it in time.
"This is within the sphere of influence of our Utopia; the Supreme will surely protect us."
"I also believe in the Number One Mutants. He's an invincible, terrifying being who has never suffered a single defeat. If the other side dares to come to our door, we'll crush him!"
Some people were unhappy when they saw others bragging like that.
"Heh, undefeated in every battle? I'll make your Supreme ruler lose face in no time!"
"Just wait for the whole city to go dark and for natural disasters to rage. I don't think that Mutants is reliable at all!"
Some people online even started to hurl insults.
Anyway.
After learning that the Silver Surfer's next stop was Yorktown City, people all over the world were filled with anticipation.
Undefeated record!
The aura of the Number One Mutants!
Recent...
Amid the apocalyptic crisis, some even vaguely hailed him as the savior of Earth and the future master of the planet!
This once controversial and invincible figure is about to face the passing of the Silver Surfer.
What will he choose?
Is it a complete loss of face?
Or will it be a triumphant return?
"I think it's unlikely. He's still too young. His flying ability clearly hasn't evolved much, and his speed is far inferior to Silver Surfer's."
"Yes, What If...? time, he would have grown into a terrifying force, but fate played a cruel joke on him, and on all of humanity."
"Regardless, I have discriminated against Mutants in the past, and I repent for it. I hope this young Number One Mutants, can keep going!"
"Hehe!"
"Just wait to lose face, we'll all go to hell together."
In the midst of the fear and anxiety of an impending doomsday crisis, some people remain pessimistic.
But under the threat of the apocalypse, almost everyone in the world was watching live footage of Yorktown City on their televisions or mobile phones.
Countless media outlets, carrying cameras, began filming the skies above the city.
It's being broadcast globally again.
The world's attention has once again fallen on Su Chen, the Number One Mutants.
Chapter 129
Although ordinary camera equipment simply cannot capture the Silver Surfer's figure in real time.
However, people around the world sensed that a battle was inevitable in Yorktown City, after all, it was the city where the Number One Mutants lived.
Utopia's power base lies here; would he simply hand it over, or even allow the Silver Surfer to advance unimpeded without any recourse?
Let's wait and see.
"It's all set up."
"Let's get ready to film the big battle scenes."
Media outlets from various television stations set up their cameras.
With the global live stream, everyone's attention was drawn to Yorktown City on the East Coast.
Not only that.
Within the city, many of the Number One Mutants's most ardent fans took to the streets, chanting and shouting in his honor.
In their hearts, the boy who could free the Mutants from their shackles was a god-like being.
Omnipotent!
He was invincible; no one could challenge his dignity.
"There are about twenty seconds left."
Call!!
Almost everyone in the world became a spectator, watching the clock with great tension.
"He hasn't arrived yet?"
Everyone felt their breathing catch and their heartbeats quicken.
At this moment, whether they are praising or mocking, the Number One Mutants has become the number one person everyone remembers.
"They're here!"
Just then, someone noticed a change in the skies over the east coast.
Buzz!!
Amidst the ripples that spread like water, a tall, slender figure emerged.
"He's the Number One Mutants."
"He really came!"
The camera immediately zoomed in, continuously magnifying the figure.
He's changed!
This is another time that audiences worldwide have seen the figure of this thirteen-year-old boy.
Last time, he was wearing a black hoodie and headphones around his neck, looking like a cool kid who had just stepped out of school, or a popular street kid.
Now, at this moment, he is wearing a custom-made white shirt, with the collar and cuffs all custom-made. His indifferent and ruthless face no longer shows any trace of the childishness of his youth. His expression is authoritative and imposing, exuding an air of arrogance that cannot be taken lightly.
"You've really grown up..."
The first thing everyone notices about him is his age.
It's impossible to connect that emotionally unstable, aloof teenager struggling against the world's injustice.
"No wonder so many people believe in him, and there are so many fanatics; this young man is practically born to be a monarch!"
Wow!!
The shouts of revelry erupted from every window in Yorktown City.
Almost everyone was chanting "Supreme," the title of "Number One Mutants," to show their respect.
In an instant.
The entire city was in an uproar, with the sound rising and falling like waves.
"Go, brother!!"
At the very top of the Caesar Building, the young sister Su Shan raised her fist, cheering on her brother.
Swish!!
The sea breeze of the night continued to blow, causing Su Chen's robes to flutter loudly.
He didn't pay much attention to the cheers behind him.
His sharply defined, cold face showed little emotion, except for a pair of eyes that gleamed with a faint light, revealing the fighting spirit that had surged within him.
Although at this moment, Su Chen couldn't even catch a glimpse of the figure on the horizon.
His Combat Intuition told him that the enemy was approaching.
In less than two seconds, the Silver Surfer would be right in front of him.
Perception is never wrong.
He was ready.
A second passed...
Suddenly, waves rose up at the horizon, splashing up whitecaps as the Silver Surfer's figure rapidly approached the east coast, cutting through the spray.
"Um..."
By this time Silver Surfer had shaken off Captain Marvel for a while and slowed down considerably, as he needed to be prepared to convert matter and energy at any moment. The city on the west coast in front of him was his target.
Are they the superheroes protecting this place?
His eyes had already spotted a solitary, proud figure soaring through the sky in the distance.
Once Upon a time.
To defend the safety of his home planet, he single-handedly faced the invasion from the Galactus and its emissaries.
He wouldn't mock the other person's courageous actions.
But unfortunately...
It was all in vain.
He was defeated just like that. If the Galactus hadn't recognized his courage and talent and granted him unparalleled speed, his home planet would probably have already fallen.
The Silver Surfer, who had shut out too many emotions, paid little attention.
He was too lazy to fight his opponent and planned to speed up slightly to shake them off.
· ··Requesting flowers···· ·
Wrong...
At that moment, a sense of vigilance resounded in his mind; his body, honed by numerous life-or-death experiences, had already warned him that danger was approaching.
What is he going to do?
