Chapter 90 Repair it

"The data encryption has been completely cracked."

Shen You walked inside the spaceship captured from Brainiac, and heard Pal's voice in his ears.

"We have retrieved all historical, cultural, and technological development data records from nineteen different civilizations," Pal said.

"Only nineteen?" Shen You sighed softly.

It was less than he had expected. He had been hoping to get more benefits from Old Brooks's ship, but it seemed to be just one of Old Brooks's countless invading warships scattered throughout the universe, so it was normal for the gains to be limited.

The ship also has miniature cities, but only the nineteen cities corresponding to the nineteen extinct civilizations on board, and Kandor, the capital of Krypton, is not among them.

"All the information about the miniature city has been found," Pal continued. "The process of sealing the city in the bottle is irreversible; at least according to the database left by Brainiac, once it is miniaturized, it can never be restored to its original size."

"Understood." Shen You nodded.

The city absorbed by Old Bu can be canceled and restored to its original size at any time during the first hour of shrinking, but if more than an hour has passed, the encapsulation is complete. Abruptly unsealing it would have a devastating impact on the city within the bottle.

Actually, it shouldn't be completely impossible to recreate. He remembered that in the original comics, after Superman took Krypton back from Brooks, although it took a long time, they eventually found the technology to recreate it.

There are still solutions, but they still need to be researched and explored.

Overall, the results were quite good. After his battle with Old Blaine, he felt a significant improvement in his basic stats and also acquired a spaceship full of knowledge about a vanished civilization. Furthermore, this ship could serve as a breakthrough point for further research into Blainek technology, preparing for his future arrival.

Shen You knew that Brainiac would definitely be targeting him after this battle. For a figure fanatic, the allure of Ultraman, such an unconventional and rare species, was like that of an otaku seeing a naked plastic figurine in a closet—completely irresistible.

For him, making this rare creature into a specimen might be more important than conquering ten civilizations.

Therefore, Shen You harbored no illusions; he was certain Old Blaine would return. Before that, he needed to gain a deeper understanding of Blainek's technology to prepare for a full-scale war.

The amount of knowledge to absorb has increased, and more technologies and problems await him to tackle, which makes him feel exceptionally fulfilled.

Learning makes him happy.

This is the self-cultivation of an outstanding intern at the Science and Technology Bureau of the Land of Light.

Brainiac is truly skilled in mechanical engineering; the elite soldiers he created could even barely fight Superman in hand-to-hand combat based solely on their strength and physical prowess—though ultimately they couldn't escape being torn apart by Superman.

Shen You quickly absorbed and learned from his technical ideas and upgraded his own armor.

After a day and a night of hard work, the third-generation mobile armor has been upgraded and completed.

With higher energy efficiency, the power output of light-powered weapons is enhanced, and the armor defense structure is strengthened by the power of light energy, making it even able to withstand the impact of Kryptonians.

And the most significant improvement is the strengthening of the power structure.

It borrowed the power structure design of Brainiac that rivaled that of Superman, and used the light energy of the Ultra race to drive it, supplemented by Shen You's own super strength, so that the third-generation armor could achieve a terrifying power output.

As expected, Old Bu is quite capable when it comes to cutting-edge technology; this is just the tip of the iceberg of his achievements. If they could capture the warship where Old Bu himself is located, the gains would be unimaginable.

"The negative phase fluctuation radar is reacting, sir, and the reaction level is quite strong," Pal said.

"In the metropolis?"

The radar response in Metropolis is not as frequent as in Gotham.

"It's already marked on the map. Would you like to take a look?"

Metropolis, suburbs.

A strange creature lurked in the dense forest on the outskirts of the city, its broad body outstretched. It stood approximately four meters tall, with a pair of thick, powerful tentacles covered in tiny whiskers. Its head was oval-shaped, resembling a cat's eye. Its grayish-brown skin was covered in hard, glossy scales, the fine scales shimmering like armor.

The red-haired woman was standing not far away. She made a gesture, and her burly subordinates and maids all gathered around.

"Alright, 'Yukto' is now ready."

As she spoke, she glanced at the monster writhing in the woods not far away. Yukto was the monster's name.

"Now, Sass, repeat our plan," she ordered the burly man.

The burly man called Sass pondered for a moment and said, "The plan is, we release the ferocious beast 'Yukto,' and that guy called Super... Super Bro should come."

"It's 'Superman,'" the red-haired woman frowned and corrected, "the most powerful man in the galaxy!"

"It's Superman. And Your Highness..." He quickly corrected himself when he realized the red-haired woman was glaring at him, "...Oh no, it's you, little sister, pretending to be startled and taking the opportunity to jump into his arms."

"More or less." The red-haired woman nodded. "You finally remembered. So, what about our background?"

Sass racked his brains for a while, then cautiously asked, "Hmm, our planet was destroyed, and we were the last survivors?"

The red-haired woman glared at him coldly.

"Uh, so we came here specifically to save Earth after discovering it was in danger?"

The red-haired woman was expressionless.

Sass, looking dejected, said, "I'm so sorry, Your Highness, there are just too many versions of your script, I...I...I can't remember them all."

"Our planet's royal family is in turmoil, and we were chased all the way to Earth by cosmic beasts to seek refuge, remember that?" the red-haired woman explained impatiently. "He is a strong man who sympathizes with the weak. It's easier to gain his favor if we position ourselves as the vulnerable ones who need help."

"Remember this, you'll definitely remember this time."

A maidservant standing nearby said timidly, "Um...Your Highness, is there something you need?"

"We'll talk about it later," the red-haired woman said impatiently. "Can't you see I'm busy helping this idiot with his settings?"

"Not Your Highness, but our Yukto," the maid pointed to the side, "it's about to be killed."

"what?"

The red-haired woman and Sass both turned their heads in the direction she was pointing.

They all saw it as soon as they turned their heads.

A red and silver steel body, holding a tentacle in its hand, lifted the cosmic beast into the air and slammed its entire body against the ground!

A series of deafening roars shook the forest like an earthquake. After several rounds, the ferocious beast Yuketuo lay on the ground like a dead fish, barely breathing.

The three of them stood there dumbfounded for a long time.

The maid slowly turned her head and asked softly, "Your Highness, this doesn't seem to be the 'Superman' you were talking about, does it?"

"Nonsense, don't you have eyes?"

The red-haired woman glared at her, her teeth clenched in anger that made her breasts heave violently.

"How dare he ruin my plans, Sass! Go and teach him a lesson!"

After thinking about it, I added something else.

"Just get rid of them."

"Yes, Your Highness!"
