I, Superman, the Supreme Commander

Chapter 343: The Mystery of the Magpie's Nest

The vaccine man’s voice is just too awful to hear.

What's more, he spoke gibberish Japanese in an old man's voice (emphasis added).

It makes me annoyed when I hear it.

Zhang Hong couldn't even wait for him to finish his lines and couldn't help but beat him up.

Facts have proved that the verbal battle plots in the anime are all made up by the author Xia Jiba.

In actual combat, both sides simply don't have the patience to listen to each other's nonsense.

Therefore, Zhang Hong, who respected the original work, decided to give the vaccine man a decent death.

He was killed in one punch.

The body was even more completely shattered than in the original.

After killing the weirdo, the surroundings became quiet and the explosions subsided.

Zhang Hong glanced at the tragic surroundings.

He looked at the unconscious twin-tailed girl in his arms again.

I feel like I should do something.

With a thought, his consciousness probed into the [Kingdom of Faith] and retrieved the souls of those who died in the vaccine man disaster.

Then, through the power of [Supreme Will], the flesh and blood bodies of the dead were reshaped directly.

It only took a few seconds, and all the tens of thousands of humans who died in the vaccine man disaster were resurrected by Zhang Hong.

Zhang Hong also cured their injuries, no need to thank him. Our great Celestial Empire's savior is just so professional.

Of course, Zhang Hong did not resurrect those scums and villains who had committed crimes, but sent them to the hell in the [Kingdom of Faith] to enjoy the hospitality of the eighteen levels of hell.

As for the destroyed buildings, Zhang Hong didn't care.

Let humanity rebuild itself.

In this way, they will cherish their home more.

With the [Supreme Will] that is a fusion of many super powers, Zhang Hong can modify reality directly with his thoughts.

No more hard work like before, reorganizing matter from the atomic scale to create people.

In the blink of an eye, two figures appeared in front of Zhang Hong.

A man and a woman, lying on the ground with their eyes closed, both adults.

Zhang Hong put the unconscious little girl down and placed her between the two of them.

Then the figure disappeared in a flash.

A few minutes later.

The man and woman resurrected by Zhang Hong woke up slowly, sat up and looked at their intact bodies with confusion on their faces.

【What happened? 】

[Wasn’t I killed by the explosion? ]

At this time, the two men discovered the little girl lying next to them.

"Lena!"

The two men exclaimed, picked up the child in a panic and checked the situation.

Just then, the little girl's eyelids moved and she opened her eyes.

As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw two familiar faces in front of me.

The little girl was stunned for a moment.

Happy but confused.

"Dad? Mom?"

……

In the eastern part of City Z, a large block was blocked off due to frequent monster disasters and became a no-man's land.

All the residents moved away, and no one dared to live here except some homeless people and desperate criminals.

On the third floor of an inconspicuous residential building in the uninhabited area, clothes were drying outside the balcony of a room, swaying in the wind.

The balcony is clean and tidy.

It is in stark contrast to the shabby and dirty balconies around it.

The room was fully furnished, clean and tidy, and the TV was on and playing the news.

It is obvious that someone lives here and takes good care of it.

But at this time the room was empty and the owner was nowhere to be found.

Suddenly, there was a flash of white light, and a figure appeared in the room.

It was Zhang Hong.

Taking a look at this simple one-room apartment, I found some familiar decorations in the house.

Yellow uniform and red gloves in the wardrobe.

A solitary cactus on the balcony.

Zhang Hong confirmed that this was where Saitama lived.

[Saitama, since you want me to help you look after the house, then it wouldn't be too much for me to just live in your house, right? ]

Thinking so, Zhang Hong settled down in Saitama's house with peace of mind.

Since you're helping to look after the house, do a thorough look.

Then just live in Saitama's house.

It doesn't matter where you live.

And to be honest, Saitama is a pretty nice place.

The environment is quiet, sparsely populated and isolated from the world, which is very suitable for Zhang Hong to slack off... ahem.

Yes. For this savior mission, Zhang Hong decided to take it easy.

Be lazy if you can, and never take action if you can avoid it.

Just treat this mission as a vacation.

Anyway, the system only requires him to look after the house, so he just needs to wait until Saitama comes back.

In this way, Zhang Hong moved into Saitama's house.

……

City A, the area destroyed by the Vaccine Man.

The heroes and rescuers from the Hero Association arrived late and found Vaccine Man's body shattered into pieces at the devastated scene.

"Did anyone see who killed the Vaccine Man?"

"No."

The person in charge looked solemnly at the body of the vaccine recipient.

Judging from the signs of destruction at the scene, the vaccine man was at least a ghost-level disaster.

But no traces of battle were left.

Apparently the Vaccine Man had been killed in an instant—the experienced person in charge could even tell that the monster had been blasted to pieces in one fell swoop.

Who killed the vaccine man?

No one witnessed the incident, so it remains an unsolved mystery.

But it is obvious that the person who killed the Vaccine Man definitely possessed S-level strength!

At this time, a staff member reported.

"Team leader, a survivor said he saw King nearby."

"Oh? Then it must be King."

"As expected of the strongest human on earth, killing a mere ghost-level demon is like killing a chicken or a sheep!"

"It is indeed unfathomable..."

After expressing his feelings, the person in charge asked about the casualties caused by the disaster.

After receiving the preliminary statistical results, his eyes widened and he looked unhappy. "Are you kidding me?"

"The casualties were only 250. How is that possible?"

"That was a whole block that was blown into ruins!"

"How is it possible that in an area with hundreds of thousands of people, only 250 people died? No, only a few dozen people died?!"

Half of the 250 people were injured.

The staff member in charge of statistics looked aggrieved, "But, this is the fact."

"We have counted it several times in detail."

"There were indeed only a few casualties."

After confirming it wasn't an April Fool's joke.

The head of the Hero Association fell into doubt about his life.

[What the hell…]

This situation is too bizarre and has never happened before.

In the past, disasters of this magnitude always resulted in thousands or tens of thousands of casualties.

Why is the death toll so low this time?

And judging from the signs of damage at the scene, many survivors were at the center of the explosion. It is impossible for ordinary people to survive such an explosion.

What is even more incredible is that according to the descriptions of the parties involved, many people clearly remember that they were killed on the spot and their bodies were blown to pieces.

But for some reason he was safe and sound after waking up.

[There must be a special reason...]

[Is this another S-class esper like Tornado? ]

The head of the Hero Association speculated that it should be a powerful super-powered person who has not been officially registered.

These people were rescued during this disaster.

Then it all makes sense.

What was strange was that no one at the scene saw any suspicious person who matched the speculation.

This speculation can only be regarded as an unsolved mystery for the time being.

Sealed in the confidential files of the Hero Association.

……

Saitama's living room.

Zhang Hong set the table, started the hot pot, and started his first meal in the other world.

"Yeah, it tastes good."

"No wonder Saitama is obsessed with this in the anime..."

The ingredients were bought from the refrigerator in Saitama. The beef was bought from the supermarket.

The money was "sponsored" by a local wealthy person.

In fact, Zhang Hong already had an extraordinary body.

Even if you don't eat or drink water for decades, there will be no effect.

Eating is just to satisfy your appetite and maintain your human habits.

After all, as an extraordinary human being, if you are separated from the life of ordinary people for too long.

Then he will gradually become detached from the masses.

They become unable to empathize with mortals, slowly lose their humanity, and eventually become inhuman beings.

Zhang Hong doesn't want to become like that.

So he can only be a human being who does not get rid of vulgar tastes.

Before he had even taken a few bites of the food, Zhang Hong frowned.

He muttered, "Really? There are too many disasters in this world. I can't even have a peaceful meal..."

While picking up food from the hot pot, Zhang Hong focused his attention on something three thousand kilometers away.

City D, a little-known city in the Earth Federation.

The reason why it is not famous is that there are no powerful heroes here.

There is not a single S-level one, and even the A-level ones are only a few.

In a valley far away from the city, there is a lonely two-story building. This is a private laboratory that is not officially registered.

A pair of unknown brothers are pursuing their dreams here.

My brother's dream is to become the strongest man in the world.

The elder brother's dream is to realize his younger brother's dream.

So the elder brother, who is a scientist, began to research drugs that could enhance the human body, and the younger brother served as his brother's experimental subject.

What a loving, affectionate and loyal family (heavy fog).

"Hahahahaha!"

"The Ultimate Steroid [Biceps King] is finally completed!"

"Oh, drink this and you will get the power you always dream of!"

The bespectacled man with a shrunken face held up a test tube filled with red liquid and shouted excitedly.

"Onii-chan!"

The muscular brother who looked like a gorilla was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes. He took the potion and drank it all in one gulp without hesitation.

Obviously, he has great confidence in his brother's research results.

“This is…Uhhhhhhh!”

The muscular brother roared loudly in pain, his muscles twitched and swelled, his body quickly grew larger, and in the blink of an eye he broke through the ceiling.
