[Comprehensive British and American] Chaoying Pet Shop

A week after Christmas, officially into the New Year, New York TV did a poll of street crowds.

Most people don't have much hope for the new year.

In October last year, they lost all their superheroes, and the crime rate soared to the point where the curfew system needed to be reintroduced; a small number of cities, such as Gotham, fell into anarchism, and countless people are worried about this, fearing that in time, Gotham It will build its own army and cause turmoil at the national level.

A passer-by who was interviewed said mockingly: "Damn it, it can't be worse than this anyway."

It's like giving his Ah Q spirit a hard slap in the face.

One morning, when people woke up, they found that Greenland was gone.

Greenland covers an area of ​​2 million kilometers, straddles the Arctic Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean, is covered by ice and snow all year round, and has a population of about 5.

On every version of the world map, Greenland still exists as a large white plate in the north.

But in reality, this piece of land disappeared overnight.Except for the horizontal truncated traces on the seabed, the despondent humans did not find any clues.

The second to disappear is Mexico.

About 1 million square kilometers of cities and populations evaporate in an instant.On the surface is a huge circular hollow, like a scar torn from the earth.

Witness: "...it was like a bolt of lightning, a thunder! The city exploded in front of my eyes - no, I can't use a more precise adjective, I mean, the city was more like dismembered - and then they, It's gone!"

The world has entered the era of the global Internet.The once grand scene of newspapers flying all over the streets like snowflakes has become news headlines updated every few milliseconds or even a fraction of a millisecond on the Internet, each of which is more appalling.

Greenland and Mexico: Who's Next? "

"A Miracle or an Extraterrestrial Visitor?" "

"Has extraterrestrial civilization launched an invasion plan?" "

A certain unpopular self-media gave their article a very gimmicky title, which caused an explosion of hundreds of billions of retweets within seconds.

They were finally banned directly by the government.

- "God is returning his land." "

Behind the hundreds of billions of reposts, there are countless panicked faces.

Despite the government's efforts to create negative public opinion, everyone knows it.

How exactly should it be done to smash the surface area of ​​millions of square kilometers without disturbing any high-tech monitoring equipment?

No human technology currently known can match this!

When an extraterrestrial civilization of this level invades, what should human beings do?

Two factions were quickly divided on the Internet: One faction advocated making the Noah's Ark plan a reality, with the preservation of human civilization as the top priority, and evacuated from the earth at full speed.

The other faction is simple, and can be summed up in one sentence: beat the fuck up.

@kris: "If we still have watchtowers, maybe early warning."

@Olivia: "Fuck, I'm mad at mentioning this, where are those fucking superheroes?! Where's fucking superman?!"

People's fear and anxiety can only be vented through violence.

In just a few days after the new year, street demonstrations and riots doubled.

The streets were filled with people holding "We Need Heroes" banners and anti-hero mobs burning red capes on flagpoles.

Joward was taking a thin pamphlet from the clinic door.

This is the latest safety manual issued by the government, teaching civilians how to protect themselves in the event of an alien invasion.Joward flipped through the pages, full of advice on keeping an emergency medical kit, food and water with you.

The system suddenly: "Host, be careful."

As soon as Joward looked up, he saw the parade crowd throwing a Molotov cocktail at the clinic.

He immediately closed and locked the door.

The Molotov cocktail shattered on the doorknob and fell to the ground outside the door. The hot oil inside was turned out and burned into a big flame.

Joward also saw such a violent parade in October last year, when the superhero just disappeared.

He deftly picked up the household fire canister by the door and sprayed out the flames.

Then he held Erhaxia's irritable dog's mouth and lowered the door curtain.

Joward said to himself: "Greenland and Mexico, is that thing doing it, 2-3?"

System: "2-3 don't know. I only know that some kind of alien artificial intelligence has indeed arrived on the earth and has caused some interference to the system. But the intelligence level of the main system is much higher than it, and we will not be discovered. Please don't worry, host."

Ever since he was tutoring Jerry in mathematics that day, and was suddenly asked by Batball to go back to the origin, Joe Ward rarely saw a few balls outside the origin.

When he was young, he also had a dream of fighting side by side with superheroes.

What boy wouldn't want to have a body like steel and fists like flames, and when he appeared on the battlefield, he would give his side an overwhelming advantage?

But as he grew older, Joward was soberly aware:

Being the best you can be is probably the most important thing for anyone - and it's not easy either.

His ability is just enough to adopt a bunch of cats and dogs, and it is also enough to take a little boy from the street into an orphanage, take him to tutor math and watch movies;

But for this kind of global level threat, as a civilian who still needs the government to issue safety manuals, maybe he should obey the command and try his best to meet the needs of the superheroes.

In the days when Greenland suddenly disappeared, there were frequent riots. The US team was worried about the boy they left in the clinic, so they got out of their busy schedule to check the situation.

The result was beyond his expectation, the little doctor was calmer than he imagined.

In the extreme chaos on the street, it is a bit unrealistic to continue to order takeaway.Joe Ward purchased enough ingredients in advance, and still cooked three meals for the balls on time.

He still has a splint on his arm.However, if the cooking is not too delicate, it can barely be done with one hand.

Seeing Captain America running over, Joe Ward scooped up a little bit of the soup with a small spoon, cooled it down, and fed it to Captain America's mouth.

Joward: "Try it?"

Captain America sniffed a little on tiptoe, with a smile on his face.

No matter what time it is, the little doctor's cooking skills never let them down.

After a few days of takeaway, Qiuqiu began to miss the Western food cooked by Joe Ward himself-they were embarrassed to say that because one arm was still hanging around his neck.

The cooking style inherited by the little doctor is simply infused with the soul. A pasta meal can be made in a variety of ways, and each taste is like refining with grams.

Especially the balls often need to fight. He also studied the dietitian course to see how to balance nutrition-the result is that every ball that arrives at the clinic will circle around in a short time...

Joward fed him and asked in a low voice, "Are there enough time points? Maybe at Christmas I shouldn't..."

The US team immediately interrupted him: [At Christmas, what you did was right. ]

Because of the language barrier between Qiuqiu and Joe Ward, Qiuqiu has some subtle emotions, which can only be felt by the US team who cares about every teammate.

When they were the most desperate and powerless, they did not fall into the hands of any villain or someone who liked to show off. Instead, they gathered around a kind-hearted civilian boy, and saw the dawn of recovery in him——

This is very lucky for them.

But no matter how determined a person is, it is difficult to remain positive and optimistic in this abnormal state.

What if you can't recover for the rest of your life?Not to mention punishing rape and eradicating evil as heroes, they can't even return to the lives of ordinary people.You know, under the glory of superheroes, each of them has their own ordinary life, and like everyone in the world, they have bitterness and suffering.

It's not the fledgling plot. Flash and Spider subconsciously become dependent on Joward, probably because of this anxiety.

And at Christmas, for the first time, the little doctor stayed long enough for the superheroes to go back to their own lives and see what it would be like to successfully get out of the ball state-even though it wasn't him It was intended, but it did boost the morale of the entire team.

Especially in the current war, this kind of morale is absolutely necessary.

US team: [We have accumulated all the way to the present, minus the Christmas, there are still 8151 points.Even if it is evenly distributed to everyone, there is still close to 20 hours of continuous combat time-by the way, the battle in New York ended in about 6 hours;)]

Joe Ward immediately whispered rainbow fart: "Reunion is really amazing!"

After he finished speaking, he looked around quietly, but this time he didn't see the bat ball falling silently.

The American team was coaxed into a smile and went back to the origin.

But as soon as he walked into the origin, the blue soldier's face became serious.

All their sophisticated equipment disappeared in an unknown shock last October.Otherwise, when Brainiac first entered the solar system, the watchtower would have issued a warning to them, and the other side would not have launched a ground attack, and they had just begun to plan a counterattack.

Brainiac -

One of the culprits who destroyed Krypton, Da Chao recognized him as soon as he attacked Greenland.

He is an artificial intelligence alien with a level [-] advanced intelligence (by the way, Earth has a level [-] intelligence that can only play atomic bombs in his rating, and Lex Luthor is a level [-]).

After the comet star was created and fully evolved and grown, it destroyed its creator.

Since then, Brainiac has wandered in the universe and become a planet harvester.

The universe is so big, the higher the level of the villain, the more bizarre the reason for the annihilation—for example, the director of a family planning committee, Purple Sweet Potato Essence.

Brainiac is just as weird.There is only one reason for him to destroy the planet:

for learning.

This advanced artificial intelligence obsessed with learning and increasingly bald is very interested in all planetary civilizations.

He himself has the strength to destroy an entire planet with one blow, but he likes to improve his own wisdom by learning the core knowledge of a planet.

In addition to studying, he also has a bad hobby: to digitize cities and shrink them, collect them in bottles and cans on his spaceship, and fly them around in the universe.The metropolis of Krypton, Kandor City, is also in his collection,

When he finishes his study, he will pour out the "residue"——

Destroy the planet and walk away.

At this moment, the air pressure at the origin is extremely low, which is completely different from the clinic full of the aroma of warm food.

The lightning ball and the little spider dare not go back to the clinic.One was to stand by, and the other was because their emotions were written all over their faces, and they were worried that it would affect the little doctor.

Batball and Tonini haven't slept since they disappeared from Greenland.

Obviously, this artificial intelligence has evolved again compared to when Krypton was destroyed.

It used to shrink and collect light, and it could only transform a Kandor city, but now, it can easily transform millions of square kilometers of land.

Maybe Brainiac wants to improve his learning efficiency.

These days, Wayne Enterprises and Stark Industries are trying to launch several new satellites into outer space to form a strict extraterrestrial surveillance network.

Although the location of the enemy is unknown, Batball and Captain America remain calm.The current situation is that their fighting time is enough, but it needs to be used on a good edge.

Without enough intelligence or understanding of the enemy's weaknesses, attacking rashly will only waste points and expose their weak position at this time.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am the Secretary-General of the United Nations, Cave Schwendt."

The latest news was being broadcast in the corner of the big screen, and at this moment a middle-aged man's face was suddenly cut into it.

The batball enlarges that window.

"From now on, I will be the face of Brainiac."

In the clinic, the little doctor stopped stirring the soup.He turned back and picked up the remote control and turned up the volume on the TV.

"Our people, don't worry, Brainiac is not a tyrant. On the contrary, he is more like a scientific worker with great vision. Duocheng, an excellent continuation of Krypton's planetary civilization-this is a good example, proving that he will not commit atrocities against human civilization."

Qiuqiu Chao secretly clenched his fists, and his hot eyes flickered faintly in his irises.

"Bradiniak is very interested in the earth. He has made enough observations of mankind through access to our network-he believes that mankind does not have to start the Noah's Ark project, because human civilization will be on his spaceship Preserved for eternity, until the end of time."

A bottle suspended in the air appears on the screen.It contains a miniature Mexico, and the camera is zoomed in. The people in the bottle seem to be unaware of their situation, and they are still selling goods lively.

"For our people, it's just another place to survive."

All street violence stopped.

People looked at the big screen on the floor, where a middle-aged man was talking in a quiet voice, looking very convincing.

But on the back that the camera couldn't capture, two wriggling mechanical tentacles were inserted deep into the back of his head, and turbid juice flowed viscously from the wound.

"However, Brainiac discovered that among human beings, there is a certain kind of creature called a 'superhero' - which made him extremely puzzled. In his opinion, this kind of creature is not in the human order and is extremely violent Tendency, but can be admired.

"Brainiac doesn't like to collect an uncontrollable civilization. If his collection is flawed, he would rather destroy it."

The pupils of the middle-aged man were slightly dilated.The wound on the back of his head that reaches deep into the brain can no longer hold him for long.

"Seven days, hand over all 'superheroes'. This will determine the fate of the earth - civilization continues, or is destroyed.

“Bryniac was relieved to learn that they even had someone—someone among our people who was wise and brave enough to investigate.”

metropolis.

While looking at the TV screen, Lex Luthor quickly destroyed all the data on the computer.

But it was too late.

Anywhere there is a network, there are Brainiac's senses.

A photo appeared on the screen.

This photo has gone through countless times of data destruction and reshaping, and it has become extremely blurry.

But on the huge screen, it can still be seen that it is a green botanical garden background.

The captured boy turned his head halfway, and his facial features could not be clearly seen in the highly blurred picture, but it was enough to recognize the features of brown hair and blue eyes.

"Execute him. Then bring the superhero to Brainiac."

After the middle-aged man finished his last sentence, he leaned back on the chair twitching.The mechanical tentacles behind him slowly pulled out, dragging out a piece of brain mixture.

The live broadcast is over.

There was silence at the origin.

The little spider couldn't bear the atmosphere, and asked aloud, "Uh, what should we... do now?"

Captain America: "We fight."

"and then?"

"And we win."

The author has something to say: There are quite a lot of Brainiac versions, here we use unjust settings + a little private setting, so that this mid-term boss doesn’t look like a fiendish monster...
