Samuel flashed directly in front of Clark Kent, didn't even look at the already dead General Zod, and asked directly, "Did you feel like you were being watched just now, or was there anything unusual?"
Prying?
Unusual?
Clark Kent was stunned for a moment, thought seriously, and shook his head, saying, "I didn't feel like I was being watched, nor did I feel anything unusual, Uncle Samuel, did something happen?"
You were a bit strange before."
Samuel nodded, then shook his head, "I'm not sure yet, but -- never mind, go see if there's anything on General Zod's spaceship that should be taken, like equipment that changes the Planet's environment.
That stuff is too dangerous, it's better if we keep it."
Clark Kent nodded and flew towards the spaceship.
...
Although the battle between General Zod and Clark Kent didn't result in death and destruction throughout Metropolis like in the movie, making it known throughout the city.
But the Military, the White House, the Pentagon, and other departments and forces had been monitoring the battle situation, and as soon as the fighting ended, their pre-arranged personnel had already arrived at the no-man's-land battlefield.
The war is over, we won!
What next?
Definitely reap the benefits!
Who would be willing to give up such a once-in-a-century political capital as 'defeating aliens and defending Earth'?
Not to mention the alien bodies and spaceship, which are of great research value.
If they could really research alien technology or decipher the genetic secrets of the aliens, the benefits would be countless, whether for individuals or the country.
Samuel was too lazy to deal with these politicians.
He had already shown sufficiently powerful strength.
As long as they didn't provoke him or affect his interests, they could fight and grab among themselves however they liked.
According to the terms previously agreed upon with Martian Manhunter, General Zod's spaceship, his own body, and the bodies of two other Kryptonians were left behind.
Oh, the equipment in the spaceship that could modify the Planet's environment was sent by Clark Kent to the Void Manor.
That place is the base of the Superman Corps.
Firstly, it's absolutely safe, and secondly, it allows scientists to study it.
The Birds of Prey escorted Faora and the other four Kryptonians back to Arkham Asylum aboard a Quinjet.
Samuel brought Lois Lane out of the Mirror Space and together they returned to the vacant office at the Planet Daily.
"I'll go edit the news first, the front-page story for this event must be mine!"
"I'll spend time with You later!"
"Oh right, don't forget you promised to let Clark Kent give me an exclusive interview, and also, you said before that you'd let me interview General Zod.
He's dead now, but substituting Faora is also fine."
Lois Lane said a few things to Samuel in a hurry and couldn't wait to turn around and run out of the office.
"Ring ring ring --"
The phone rang, it was Martian Manhunter calling.
After connecting, Martian Manhunter couldn't help but say, "You just left like that?
Perhaps things might still need You and Clark Kent."
Samuel scoffed and said frankly, "Tell those people, what's mine is mine, don't touch it, don't mess with it, don't steal it, understand?
I gave You face by leaving the spaceship and the bodies, if they're still not satisfied, then don't blame me for being ruthless!"
"Giving too many smiles just spoils them rotten."
"If they want to die, I'll help them."
"Don't get angry yet, things haven't reached that point."
Martian Manhunter persuaded.
Samuel laughed, "I'm not angry, guys I can crush with a thought aren't worth me getting angry over.
It's just that I have something more interesting now, so I'm too lazy to deal with them."
"Something more interesting?"
What is it?"
Martian Manhunter asked curiously.
Samuel thought for a moment and said, "I felt a higher level of prying."
"It's not that the level is higher than mine, but this method is very interesting, I'm very interested."
"Higher level prying?"
Martian Manhunter was stunned for a moment, somewhat unable to understand.
Samuel explained simply, "Outside the physical reality Universe, perhaps from Heaven, or perhaps from Earth, or the Multiverse, or even beyond the Multiverse."
"I haven't determined who it is yet."
Martian Manhunter was silent for a moment and said, "I haven't found any anomalies, but if there's anything You need help with, just say so."
"Okay."
Hanging up the phone, Samuel used the void battle bead to contact Atlanta, asking her to mobilize the power of Atlantis and the Aquaman Corps to search for Kryptonite in various sea areas.
Afterwards, he contacted Diana and Alcael, also asking them to search for and acquire Kryptonite.
When General Zod's spaceship entered Earth, some of the Kryptonite it carried would definitely be lost.
Besides that, when Clark Kent came to Earth, his spaceship must have also carried Kryptonite.
It just hadn't been specifically looked for before, and this time was a good opportunity to search for it together.
Samuel hadn't looked for it before because there was no need.
In the movie, Kryptonite was basically obtained by Batman and Lex Luthor.
Especially Lex Luthor, he is like Superman's 'Joker', the two love and kill each other, a lifelong destiny.
Under normal circumstances, Lex Luthor and Clark Kent are fellow villagers, classmates, and friends with deep friendship.
Then Clark Kent's identity is exposed, and Lex Luthor's love turns into hate, determined to defeat 'Superman'.
Or after 'Superman' debuted, Lex Luthor, this Earthling humanist, saw him as the biggest threat and began to find ways to defeat him and kill him.
Regardless of which, Lex Luthor collecting Kryptonite was based on knowing Superman or Superman having already debuted.
The current Lex Luthor doesn't know Superman at all, and there's no grudge.
Of course, after Lois Lane's news is published, there probably will be, because Lex Luthor is actually the same kind of person as Bruce Wayne, smart, rich, arrogant, and doesn't easily trust anyone, much less believe in aliens who can easily destroy Earth and humanity.
With Samuel's current power, and him searching for Kryptonite first, if Lex Luthor still manages to find it in the end, haha, then he can be one hundred percent sure there's a problem!
There must be some big shot preparing a major event centered around Superman!
As for Kryptonite itself, Samuel really doesn't care.
If he really needed it, he could completely go to other Universes to collect it.
Kryptonite isn't like the Infinity Stones; it doesn't become unusable across Universes!
