"Understood!"
As the words fell, the red cloak rose from the ground and flew into the sky.
At the same time, in another direction, a red lightning bolt sped towards the distance with a speed not inferior to Superman's.
"沃特, I need you to stop the Kryptonian's attack before the Flash finishes accelerating."

"I'll do my best."
Shimizu hung up the communication and looked at the middle-aged Kryptonian who had descended in front of him.
Zod!
"Nam was killed by you?"
The Kryptonian general scrutinized Shimizu.
"So far, I've only killed one alien. Thank you for telling me his name."
Shimizu spoke casually, but looked at Zod with a serious expression.
Although Zod was still wearing Kryptonian armor, he wasn't wearing a helmet.
That is to say, he had already adapted to the strengthening brought by the yellow sun.
This was going to be difficult to deal with…
"To die on the battlefield is a warrior's greatest honor. You gave Nam that honor, so I will grant you the same."
Zod's face was cold, and he clenched his fist.
"Bang!"
A sonic boom erupted, and a huge iron fist kept enlarging in front of Shimizu.
"Boom!"
Shimizu quickly ducked to avoid the attack, ignoring the large pit that appeared in the building behind him due to Zod's punch. He made a slow, illusory punch with his left hand, and clenched his right fist, striking upwards towards Zod's face.
"Bang!"
Fist and palm met, creating a wave of air.
Zod stood firm, grabbed the White Knight's right arm with one hand, and then pulled it in the opposite direction, slamming his body into Shimizu like a cannonball.
Zod, who was extremely confident in his own fighting skills, chose close combat, directly dismantling Shimizu's armor!
Zod had just been exposed to sunlight, so his stats were definitely not as high as Superman's, but he was wearing Krypton's high-tech armor, which greatly enhanced his strength and speed.
If the White Knight's shell wasn't plated with Promethium, which had strong defensive capabilities and could absorb most of the energy, including kinetic energy, the White Knight would definitely be crippled by now, and Shimizu would have long fled.
Amidst the flying dust, countless buildings were destroyed again in the battle between the two.
"You're not bad. Even without this metal shell, you possess excellent fighting skills and military literacy. I will give you the honor a warrior deserves."
As Zod spoke, he tore open his Kryptonian armor, which was in tatters, revealing a strong physique through the black tights underneath.
He was becoming more and more adapted to Earth's environment. At this time, after taking off the Kryptonian armor, his body floated in mid-air like Superman.
Kryptonians become stronger and stronger in sunlight!
Shimizu didn't reply, but his heart sank.
[Current Speed Force Remaining: percent.]
This was the fastest Speed Force consumption of any battle so far.
Before, in order to ensure he could stably obtain a Kryptonian corpse, he had consumed a lot of Speed Force.
This was of course a worthwhile trade. With the Speed Force cannon manufactured by Cisco, plus a speedster with the Speed Force, Shimizu could stably charge the Speed Force dagger.
But Zod was too strong.
Although his stats in all aspects were not as good as Superman, who had absorbed sunlight for thirty years, his physical quality was not low.
It's because Superman has been in contact with sunlight for a long time, and all aspects of his body are definitely close to the limit of adaptation—although this limit is rather idealistic.
And Zod is like a dry sponge, suddenly falling into a pool and rapidly absorbing water.
He hasn't absorbed enough yet, but he's still getting stronger.
Using the Speed Force, Shimizu could still go toe-to-toe with the current Zod, but once the Speed Force was exhausted, he would only be able to take a beating.
It was time to change the battle strategy!
Shimizu parried Zod's punches, while the White Knight's left arm lit up with a blue light.
A surge of cold air accompanied the cryogenic ray.
Zod dodged to the side, but his arm was still grazed by the cryogenic ray.
Frost appeared and quickly solidified into ice, freezing half of Zod's body.
Cracking sounds rang out, and cracks appeared on the surface of the ice.
With Zod's current strength, he could break the ice with a little force and break free.
But all Shimizu wanted was to create an opportunity.
The Kryptonite short sword was unsheathed, stabbing directly at Zod's face.
"Aghhhh!!!"
A painful scream came from Zod's mouth.
Under the irradiation of Kryptonite, Zod's body, floating in mid-air, staggered, and his strength weakened.
At this time, he was using the hand that was not frozen to hold the White Knight's elbow, struggling to pry it open.
It was just that he felt weak under the Kryptonite light, and he was still half a beat too late, causing one eye to be poked blind by the Kryptonite.
"Boom!"
A violent roar sounded, and Shimizu also staggered.
A small Kryptonian spaceship floated in the sky.
It was this spaceship that fired an energy cannon that hit Shimizu just now, and Zod took the opportunity to break free.
"Shit, Batman!"
Shimizu couldn't help but curse on the radio.
Because this spaceship was being held up by Batman piloting the Batwing, but now it had been let go.
"Sorry, my fighter crashed, and another one hasn't arrived in Metropolis yet."
Batman, who had just ejected from the fighter and landed with his cloak transformed into bat wings, replied in the voice.
"I can't hold on much longer!"
Shimizu complained as he watched Zod struggle and fly back into the sky from the ground.
Only Batman's silence answered Shimizu.
In the next moment, several more Kryptonian ships flew down from the main ship.
Fortunately, the white-skinned lieutenant general in the command headquarters saw this scene through the video and issued an order to let the US military fighters circling in the high altitude come down to assist.
The performance of these fighters was far behind the Batwing, let alone compared to the Kryptonian ships that could operate in space, but they had enough numbers.
All the combat teams in the Kansas military base set off at this moment, seeking to entangle the Kryptonian ships.
Regardless of what the military and government leaders were thinking, they at least knew that if there was no Earth, no humans, they would not be able to live.
Zod floated in mid-air, covering his injured eye, the other eye narrowed slightly, shining with a red light.
I finished writing earlier today. I'll write a little more later to see if I can write one or two more chapters as a bonus for the previous monthly ticket event.
