Chapter 851 Bruce’s Nightmare (page 12)

As for the people further away, although they could not reach Superman, they stretched out their right hands like the people in the front row, as if to thank Superman, but more like worshiping the gods.

The reporter in the distance clicked and took a perfect picture. The main background of the picture was the chattering flames, but in front of the background was a crowd of hundreds of people extending their right hands towards Karak.

The image, like a pilgrimage, was instantly frozen in the photo and then spread throughout the world. Within a week, almost all mainstream media around the world put this photo on the front page. Many religious people even felt that this scene was so consistent with the connotation of God saving the world.

Yes, some even started calling Superman a god among men.

Yes, regardless of religious beliefs or the sustenance in the heart, Superman has become a cultural symbol for the general public to fight disasters and save their families and loved ones. Even if it is just a photo, it still has the power to shake people's hearts.

More and more people have even begun to regard Superman as their belief. Perhaps people vaguely hope that they can be rescued by Superman in the next disaster.

The heated discussions among humans have not affected Clark for the time being. Clark still lives a monotonous life every day. Apart from going to work, he saves all kinds of people who are caught in disasters.

With the passage of time, especially the several major disasters that have occurred around the world, Superman has saved more and more people, which has also made the topic of Superman become more and more heated.

Especially as the United States in name only, the discussion has been extremely heated. After all, Superman theoretically lives in this country.

CNN: Superman's actions are political, and in this world, everyone's actions are political. The most powerful man in the world is also a controversial figure. Is he really a member of the human race?

Or is it a Kryptonian spy hiding among humans?

New York Times: Is it really appropriate for an individual to participate in national-level diplomacy and rescue? This is worth pondering. Human beings once had a terrible past of following powerful figures, that person was called the Emperor, but now a more powerful figure has appeared...

This person is taller, faster, and stronger. This person is invulnerable to the sky and the earth. Even in modern civilized society, this person's force can sweep away the technology that mankind is proud of.

But this is a threat to freedom and democracy.

National Broadcasting Corporation: Humanity is destined to die if we remain stuck in our own ways. We have always created objects of worship in our own image, and we often like to project ourselves onto such people.

In fact, Superman is neither Jesus nor the devil, he is just a man trying to do what is right.

AP: Are we talking about a real life form, or a definite extraterrestrial life form? This life challenges our understanding of the universe, dating back to the time of Copernicus, when Copernicus replaced the earth with the sun as the center of the universe.

Tracing back to Darwin's theory of evolution, we can also find that humans themselves are not the only choice on earth. We also learn that even in the universe we humans are not the most special. Humanity is not alone.

NPR: You can never tell grieving parents that although Superman could have saved your children, in principle Superman has no law enforcement power, and cross-regional law enforcement is a challenge to the majesty of the law.

In fact, no matter what the media says, the American military actually likes Superman very much, because Superman does not obey orders and has no way to control him. The military has a fear of Superman.

Any fear is due to lack of control, or all fear comes from lack of firepower. America hasn't felt this way in years.

Now everyone in America has begun to discuss the specialness of Superman.

Some people regard Superman as a savior, some people regard Superman as a hero, and of course some people regard Superman as a clownish clown...Human beings are always complicated, and many times they decide their stance based on their own butts.

……

Time flies, and in one year, Superman has rescued exploding rockets, floods, and a giant ship that was frozen.

Clark no longer pays attention to the rumors and rumors from the outside world, but only focuses on doing his own thing.

The Metropolitan Museum, where Diana worked. Although Su Xiuyu felt that there was no need for Diana to work, this was also Diana's personal hobby, so Su Xiuyu would not get into trouble with Diana for this reason.

Bruce's pursuit of the secrets of the Lex Group was eventually intercepted by Diana, so in the end Bruce came to the door.

"Ms. Diana, I'm sorry to take the liberty of visiting. I remember you said that if I have anything to do, I can come to the Metropolitan Museum to find you. In fact, I have been here many times. Fortunately, I found you this time."

Then Bruce, who was close to Diana, whispered: "When will the things you stole from me be returned to me?"

"Interesting, I remember that you stole this thing from someone else, right? If you steal something from the person who stole it, isn't it considered stealing? After all, your theft is illegal."

"Who are you anyway? I'm grateful that you saved me, but that thing involves something very important, and I need to get my information back."

"As you said, my name is Diana. This is my real name, but did you find out any information?" Diana asked with a smile.

Bruce's face was expressionless. In fact, Diana was really right. The first thing Bruce did when he returned was to investigate Diana's identity, but unfortunately, most of the things he found were false.

If Diana's statement that her name is true is also true, then only her name is correct, and her other experiences seem to be only her work experience, and her family experience is completely impossible to refer to.

"You don't mean to thank me. If Su and I hadn't helped you, you would have died on the battlefield." Diana was very curious about what this secret Batman would do.

"Sorry, it's my problem. I remember the life-saving grace very clearly. If you don't mind, I can repay you with money..." Bruce saw that the other party started to criticize him about the life-saving thing again, and he had to show his attitude.

"How much? 100 billion? 200 billion? Just give me a number."

Bruce became even more embarrassed when Diana spoke. Although Bruce has always considered himself a wealthy man, with private assets of 92 billion U.S. dollars, of course the Wayne Group controls more wealth, more than 100 billion, but Diana asked for billion or billion, which was obviously a big deal for a lion.

The most important thing is that Bruce still can't refute Diana's big mouth because Diana saved Bruce's life.

Once Bruce accuses Diana of speaking loudly, it means that Bruce's own life is not worth much. In fact, life is priceless.

But asking Bruce to directly offer 200 billion U.S. dollars in return would be too much for even Wayne Group. There is no shortage of working capital to do business, let alone withdrawing so much cash.

"Look at Mr. Wayne, at least he is not as rich as he imagined. Even if he could get 200 billion, he would suffer heavy losses..." Diana was not joking. After all, Diana actually knew something about the Wayne Group.
