Chapter 451: The Hero Team Global Guardians
After digesting the extra portion of phantom memories in his mind, he looked at the television playing the news nearby.
"This morning, the Mauler Twins attempted to attack the White House, causing widespread chaos. Fortunately, the Global Guardians arrived in time. As we can see, Red Rush, wearing a red suit and possessing super speed, is moving citizens to safety..."
On the TV screen, a destroyed armored vehicle was burning, emitting thick black smoke. A bald giant with blue skin could be seen leaping high, then crashing down, smashing arriving support armored vehicles into scrap metal.
A figure entirely red, even their goggles were red, was moving the citizens at the scene with astonishing speed, so fast that only afterimages could be seen.
"These guys from the Global Guardians, why do they look a bit like bootleg versions of the Justice League..."
Besides Red Rush, Xia Shang also saw Darkwing, wearing a mask, with a black cape, and riding a skateboard. This guy's appearance wasn't exactly the same as Batman, but at least eighty percent similar.
Additionally, there was War Woman, wearing armor, fighting bravely with a war hammer.
Green Ghost, who was entirely green, slender, with features unclear, just like a green screen.
And Martian Manhunter, whose head was like a potato and could freely extend and contract his body.
And Aquarus, who was like a blue catfish spirit, capable of controlling water currents.
Their Leader was Immortal, a muscular man with a bushy beard and regeneration ability.
Looking at the figures on the screen, Xia Shang's mouth twitched slightly. Damn, this sense of déjà vu is too strong.
Aren't these bootleg versions of Flash, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, Martian Manhunter, and Wolverine? Although the latter doesn't have steel claws, his hairstyle is indeed very similar to Wolverine's.
Through the extra phantom memories in his mind, Xia Shang gained a base understanding of the 'Invincible' world.
Simply put, this is a world where superheroes and super villains are rampant.
Meanwhile, on the TV screen, a muscular figure descended from the sky.
"One of the Mauler Twins threw an armored vehicle towards Darkwing. Darkwing, who was holding a citizen and couldn't dodge in time, was hit by the falling armored vehicle.
We can see that in a moment of crisis, Darkwing chose to shield the citizen beneath him and used a grappling hook to send the citizen out from under the armored vehicle.
Just as he was about to be crushed by the armored vehicle, Omni-Man appeared. He displayed astonishing strength, effortlessly lifting the armored vehicle and saving Darkwing who was trapped underneath."
Xia Shang saw a figure wearing a red cape, with white temples and a small mustache, supporting a several-ton armored vehicle with one hand, saving Darkwing.
"Omni-Man, hailed by the Media as the most powerful Superhero on Earth..." Seeing the figure appear on the screen, relevant memories automatically surfaced in Xia Shang's mind.
"Most powerful Superhero? How strong can he be?"
Just then, he suddenly heard a roar outside the store, similar to a missile launch.
Xia Shang calmly looked outside. His gaze passed through the wall, and he saw Mark, a store employee wearing a work uniform, standing in front of the Trash Can, holding his hat and looking into the distance.
"This strength is extraordinary."
The other employees in the burger joint didn't notice that their boss had suddenly disappeared.
High in the sky, Xia Shang followed the trash bag like a shadow until he saw the high-speed flying trash bag pass through the atmosphere and burn up.
"To casually throw a bag of trash into space, this strength is truly a bit terrifying." Standing in the air, Xia Shang looked at the burning fireball flying towards the starry sky, a playful smile on his face. Hmm, that employee named Mark is worth analyzing.
Flying back above the burger joint, Xia Shang followed the employee Mark all the way. It was clear that Mark was in a very good mood.
"Great, my superpower has finally awakened. I need to hurry home and tell them the good news."
Mark's muttering was heard clearly by Xia Shang.
"Interesting. It seems this world is completely different from the Mutants'. Awakening a superpower is something worth being very happy about." To avoid being seen by others, Xia Shang was invisible.
Suddenly! A voice softly echoed behind him.
"Little bug in invisibility, you seem very interested in my son?"
Hearing the voice, Xia Shang turned his head to look. A tall and imposing figure, like an iron tower, had appeared behind him at some point.
The man had white temples, wore a red and white suit, and had a serious expression. His red cape billowed in the wind. Just standing there gave off a sense of oppression like a tsunami crashing down.
"Omni-Man." Xia Shang turned around, his eyes slightly narrowed.
He hadn't expected to encounter Omni-Man, hailed as the strongest Supe on Earth, so quickly.
Even more unexpected was that the employee Mark was Omni-Man's son.
"Just got back from killing a dragon in Hong Kong, and I see you, this sneaky guy, tracking my son."
As soon as Omni-Man finished speaking, his figure instantly disappeared from his original spot. This wasn't teleportation, but speed taken to the extreme.
In an instant, he had already arrived in front of Xia Shang and threw a simple, unadorned punch.
Boom! Layers of white airwave could be seen emanating from Omni-Man's fist, the strength contained within was naturally self-evident.
However, facing Omni-Man's attack, Xia Shang didn't dodge, because he wanted to see just how strong the guy in front of him was! Throwing the same punch, Xia Shang mobilized the strength of his whole body, unleashing it freely!
Bang! The two fists collided, as if the world stopped for a moment.
The next second, the fabric on Xia Shang's right arm was torn apart by the turbulent airflow.
Immediately after, he flew backward like a cannon shell.
He crashed heavily onto the Earth, kicking up a cloud of dust and leaving a shocking large pit.
Omni-Man, with a blank expression, looked at the rising smoke and dust and spoke indifferently, "Trash that can be taken down with one hit dares to track my son."
With that, he prepared to turn and leave. His wife should have dinner ready by now.
"Truly terrifying strength. My fist felt like it hit a meteorite."
A similarly muscular figure broke through the smoke and dust, slowly walking out of the giant pit. He tore off his broken upper garment, revealing muscles as hard as bedrock, then raised his head and smiled slightly at Omni-Man in the air.
"It's been a long time since I've met a decent opponent like you."
