Comic: Becoming a Phantom Thief to Steal Hearts

"This is all surveillance!" Peter said in surprise.

"But..." Lucas looked at the picture above but was not happy at all.

"So many, so many aliens!" Mindy exclaimed, having already said what Lucas wanted to say.

"It's really too much..." Lucas sighed.

On the screen are monitors from all parts of the spacecraft. Not only can you see the entire spaceship, you can also see many aliens walking around in the corridor. If you carefully count, there are dozens of them.

Although aliens are good at moving in the dark, sudden lights have no effect on them. After assimilating to humans, they even inherited part of human wisdom.

The bright light reminded them that an intruder was here.

"Is there any room that looks special?" Hope couldn't help but ask.

Not feeling the breath of the secret treasure for so long made him a little anxious.

"I'm watching."

"Ah!" Gwen suddenly exclaimed, "Look at that room."

"what?!"

One of the surveillance cameras actually showed three people, a middle-aged man with a beer belly and two white-collar workers, a man and a woman. But the most shocking thing was the dark adult alien following behind them.

"This alien didn't attack them?"

Lucas didn't speak in thought, but Gwen said thoughtfully: "Is it because... I need to reproduce?"

The only alien among the aliens that has the ability to reproduce is the Queen, so if the current aliens want their alien larvae to grow up and mature, they must have living hosts. This should be the reason why the aliens on the screen did not kill them.

"We have to rescue people." Peter said solemnly.

Although they are not dead yet, anyone who has watched Alien knows what the final fate of being a host will be, and Peter obviously cannot ignore death.

"But if you don't deal with the owner here first, things like this will only happen more and more frequently." Raven reminded.

"So, I think we should capture the thief first." Lucas raised his head, his eyes fixed on the two darkened surveillance locations.

"Our current position is at the head of the spacecraft, and the monitoring system at the tail of the spacecraft has failed. It may have been corroded by the secretions of the alien. I remember that the alien queen secretes some substances similar to spider silk when she lays eggs. These substances are also corrosive, but not as strong as the alien's blood."

Lucas narrowed his eyes, "As long as the Alien Queen is killed, the number of aliens here will not increase. It would be great if Henshaw's shadow shows up because of this."

"The problem now is that these aliens are not that easy to deal with. If we want to kill their queen, we will definitely be greatly hindered." Gwen glanced at Peter worriedly.

Peter is the physically strongest among them, but even so, he suffered a lot of injuries in the head-on confrontation with the alien. If Gwen and Mindy were hit by the alien, there is no telling what would happen.

"Yeah, so we need a plan."

reality.

When Lionel returned to his apartment humming a tune, he heard a steady heartbeat.

That's Lex's.

Lionel fell into the living room through the open window and saw Lex sitting on the sofa, reading the company's documents casually.

Lionel suddenly felt nervous. He was like a child who secretly went out to play, only to find his parents waiting in the living room when he returned home.

Luther heard Lionel's movement, but he didn't speak, and he didn't even move his eyes from the document.

He naturally picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip.

Lionel stood resignedly in front of Luther, lowered his head slightly, and shouted with lack of confidence: "...Lex."

"You actually know how to come back." Luther put down the file and finally looked at Lionel.

But the child looked at the sky and the earth and refused to look at him, which almost made Luther laugh angrily.

Lionel's body was filled with the blood of his Lex Luthor, so this Kryptonian puppy should be his property, but what he didn't expect was that it would be fine if Lionel ran away privately. , and actually damaged the tracker on his body.

"Tell me, who did you meet yesterday?"

Lionel immediately thought of the grudge between Superman and Luthor, and his eyes flickered more and more, but he had to answer Luthor's question, so Lionel chose to betray the little friend he had just met.

"I...I met Robin." He said, "Did you know? He actually gave himself a new name, Red Robin. It's really interesting. Will there be Blue Robin and Green Robin in the future? ah."

"Robin..." Luther narrowed his eyes. He knew Lionel. This Kryptonian baby who was just born would not have the awareness to guard against the locator on his body, but if it was Batman's disciple Robin, then It's normal.

Luthor felt sick when he thought of this. Although it was his idea to replace Superman with Lionel, when he saw that Lionel looked more and more like Superman, he became more and more unhappy, especially It was now when I heard that Batman's disciple was in contact with Lionel again.

The best partner in the world, huh?

Luther raised his hand and motioned for Lionel to come over.

Lionel didn't move.

"Don't make me say it a second time." Luther raised his eyebrows, "Come here."

Lionel slowly came to Luther's side, and the bright golden sunlight also illuminated this extremely handsome face.

Luther put his hand on Lionel's shoulder, but looked at the high-rise buildings outside, "Tell me, what have you seen in the past few months?"

"Um...this city?" Lionel said hesitantly.

He actually didn't know what Luther wanted to express, so he could only choose an answer that was as error-free as possible.

"The world is full of stupid people," Luther said.

His tone was always unhurried, yet highly inflammatory.

"What's worse is that stupid people like to stick together, and once people join a group, their already low IQ becomes even more unbearable. In order to gain recognition, individuals are willing to abandon right and wrong and use their IQ in exchange for a place that makes people feel safe. A sense of belonging.

What they pursue and believe in is never truth and reason, but blind obedience, cruelty, paranoia and fanaticism. They only know simple and extreme emotions. What they need most is not freedom but obedience. "

At this point, Luther's voice rose.

“They are so willing to obey the will of others that whenever someone claims to be their master, they instinctively obey him.

The masses have never thirsted for truth and are blind to unpalatable evidence. If error seduces them, they are more willing to worship error. Whoever supplies them with illusions can easily become their master; whoever destroys their illusions becomes their victim. "

“This city is full of lambs waiting to be ruled.”

Luther put his hand on Lionel's neck. His strength was so unbearable and weak to Lionel, but it made Lionel feel heavy. It was an authority that could not be resisted.

He opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't say anything to refute.

Luther grabbed Lionel's chin and made him look directly at him.

"Do you know what's the biggest difference between you and them?"

"...because I'm stronger?"

"Humph." Luther sneered, "No, it's because you have everything I gave you."

"I...I thought my powers came from Superman."

"No, no, no, of course I gave you your power." Luther let go of Lionel and walked to the window, staring at the blue sky. "I gave you more than Superman." , you have the strength of the strongest and the wisdom of the smartest.”

"My blood is flowing in your body. When you soar in the sky, I hope you don't forget that without me, you are nothing."

When Luther left, Lionel still stood there blankly.

Therefore, he is not actually a clone of Superman, but a hybrid of Kryptonian and human.

He thought Lex was his boss, but in fact he was his father. He once thought Superman was the one he wanted to look up to and become, but in fact he was also his father.

What is this! so terrible!

Lionel suddenly collapsed on the sofa and thought to himself.

No wonder Superman's expression was so subtle when he saw him. Thinking about it now, he couldn't tell.

Lionel's thoughts are getting more and more divergent. Is there a 50% chance that he will become bald in the future? Don’t do that kind of thing!

He thought of his good brother Lucas again. Is Lucas a clone of Superman or a hybrid like him?

Lionel subconsciously wanted to find Lucas's heartbeat frequency, but just like before, unfortunately, he still couldn't sense Lucas's heartbeat.

"It's been a day, is Lucas really okay?" Lionel couldn't help but said to himself.

The next second, he flew out of his apartment again.

After careful investigation and screening, Tim finally discovered the pattern of people disappearing.

With his fingers brushing against the old wall, Tim stopped in the back alley of a supermarket.

If nothing else happens...

He raised his head and looked at the person who suddenly appeared above him speechlessly.

"Hi." Lionel lowered his head slightly, revealing his gray-blue eyes under his sunglasses.

"What's the matter?" Tim said calmly.

"Wow!" Lionel complained, "You were so enthusiastic when you came to me for something, but now I come to you for something, and you are so cold!"

Tim sighed, "Because I have something to do now."

Lionel looked at him suspiciously.

Forget it, Tim glanced at the motionless back alley and said, "Then, let me ask again, is there anything you need my help with?"

"Oh, it's nothing actually. I just want to ask your opinion."

Lionel told Tim what Luther said.

After listening to Lionel's words, Tim thought for a few seconds and said: "For smart people, is the mediocrity of ordinary people a sin? Don't be led by Luther, it is inevitable. part of the world.”

Lionel blinked in confusion.

"Luthor's words are actually correct. The public is very easy to incite and take advantage of. The difference lies in your own ideas. He wants to rule them, but I prefer to guide." Tim raised his head and looked into Lionel's eyes. , "What about you, what do you think?"

"I……"

As soon as Lionel uttered a syllable, he saw a crack in the wall suddenly open, and a dark unknown creature jumped out.

"What!" Lionel immediately stretched out his arm to stop it.

A ferocious monster bit his arm, its tail wrapped around his body, its sharp teeth scratched the steel body with a tooth-piercing sound, and corrosive liquid dripped onto his arm along the sharp teeth. Lionel felt the slightest bit of pain.

"Damn thing!"

The heat vision passed through his brain neatly.

But even so, the alien's strength remained unabated, clinging to Lionel.

As a half-dead nerd, Tim immediately recognized the alien.

"Superboy, use ice breath!"

Upon hearing this, Lionel took a deep breath subconsciously, and then exhaled a cold breath.

Under the low temperature, the alien gradually began to lose its strength, and finally stopped moving.

"What the hell is this!" Lionel directly broke off the alien's tail wrapped around his waist and threw it heavily to the ground.

Tim knelt down to check and found that the blood drops falling from the alien wound were corroding the ground. This was exactly like in the movie.

"Hello?"

"This is not something that should appear in reality." Tim's eyes turned to the gap that had not yet been closed.

This is a great opportunity for him to enter that world.

Tim made a quick decision and rushed towards the gap.

"Hey! Wait for me!" Lionel followed closely.

He used his super speed to barely enter the gap, and then the gap in reality disappeared without a trace. Even the alien corpse on the ground turned into wisps of black at the moment the gap disappeared. The smoke disappeared with the wind, leaving no trace.

"huhu"

Peter clung to the wall with spider silk.

"Take my hand!" Lucas held out his hand to Peter.

Peter reached out with difficulty and grabbed Lucas' hand.

Lucas quickly pulled Peter into the passage and pressed the door close button next to him.

The cabin with a big hole was isolated, and Peter, who was blushing due to lack of oxygen, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Should we get rid of all these aliens?" Peter asked after he recovered.

"Most of them, but even if there are fish that slip through the net, we can deal with them." Lucas said.

"Oh, that's okay." Peter waved his hand, "I'm almost exhausted."

After examining the structure of the Excalibur, Lucas decided on a plan that was highly risky but also highly profitable. The alien would pursue the prey it saw, especially when there were many companions around it.

So after confirming the location of most of the aliens, Peter used his sensitivity to walk around the Excalibur, followed by a bunch of aliens like running on a train, and he arrived at the planned cabin.

Through Mindy's destruction of the wall, these unprepared aliens flew into the infinite universe due to the sudden change in pressure.

Now, there is only one queen without an escort.
