Chapter 1 A Rather Lengthy Jump

After a rather lengthy jump travel, the heroes' "Tin Foil" spaceship successfully arrived in the Blast Star Sector.

Because they were heroes, they couldn't just barge onto other people's planets without saying hello like Doctor Diandian; they had to contact the Blast Star's Planetary Defense Department first and obtain authorization to land.

If it were fifty years later, "landing on a planet" wouldn't be a big deal at all; as long as they gave the name of the "Universal Superhero Alliance (宇超联)" and verified their identities, the heroes could land on any planet that had established diplomatic relations with the Alliance.

But now... as mentioned earlier, they were still a secret organization, and no one knew what they did.

Fortunately, most of the heroes on the Tin Foil were quite famous, especially Tin Foil Man... he was simply a superstar in the superhero world. With his fame, as long as he stated his identity and purpose, most planets would let him pass.

"Calling Blast Star, repeat... Calling Blast Star... This is the Tin Foil spaceship, requesting to land on your planet, please respond..."

When the spaceship arrived in orbit outside Blast Star, Captain Shit Star, sitting in the co-pilot's seat, picked up the communication device and began calling. But... he shouted there for a full five minutes, and Blast Star did not respond at all.

"That's strange... Why is there no response to the call for landing?" Captain Shit Star muttered, "Could there be something wrong with the communication system on our spaceship?"

"Impossible." Before the captain could finish speaking, Frogman, sitting a few meters behind him, immediately responded with these three words in a deep voice.

"Heh..." Hearing this, Tin Foil Man, who was in the pilot's seat, chuckled lightly, "Captain, our communication system was made by Frogman, the failure rate is basically zero... Instead of guessing that there is something wrong with our system, it's better to say that Blast Star's..."

He paused as he spoke.

Because... an ominous premonition was faintly rising in his heart.

Di-- Di--

At this moment, the alarm bell in the spaceship suddenly rang.

[Warning, high-energy reaction detected.]

[Estimated to be a star-sector-level laser strike weapon.]

[Energy source coordinates x5, y-45, z568425.]

[Our ship has been simultaneously locked by four targeting systems.]

[Evasion success rate 3.51%]

[Complete defense rate 0.08%]

[It is recommended to transfer all energy to the spaceship's shield, or abandon ship within fifteen seconds...]

The alarm system's voice echoed in the cabin.

And the content of the voice seemed to declare: In just over ten seconds, this "Tin Foil" spaceship would truly become powder.

At this time, all twelve people on the ship were sitting in one cabin, and they naturally heard this broadcast.

However, the reactions of the ten Universal Superhero Alliance heroes... were unexpectedly calm.

"Sigh..." Tin Foil Man simply put on a helpless expression and said, turning his head, "Guys... it seems we're going to have to take a stroll in outer space."

Presumably, you have also seen... these people on the ship were not afraid of the attack of a star-sector-level laser weapon at all...

Each of them had the combat power to withstand such an attack and the ability to survive in outer space, so... it didn't matter.

"Poker Man, Park Man." The next second, Captain Shit Star unfastened his seat belt, quickly left his seat, and walked towards Jue Ge and Ben Bu, who were sitting in the corner, "Don't worry, I'll protect you."

"By the way, Poker Man is also an Earthling like me." At this time, Doctor Eternal reminded loudly, "In addition to blocking the impact, the pressure change and oxygen problem... please take care of him."

"Okay, I'll take care of the pressure as well." Captain Shit Star immediately replied.

"There's really no way... Then I'll take care of the oxygen problem." Then, Poison Man also replied in a lazy tone.

Just as they were saying these words, the high-energy defense weapon on Blast Star had already launched its attack.

In an instant, a huge beam of light roared in with a whale-swallowing momentum.

It was also mentioned earlier... Blast Star's military technology was very advanced; and the light beam cannon in front of them was designed and built to be able to destroy Noah-class interstellar mother ships with one blow...

Using such a weapon to hit a spaceship of the Tin Foil's level was like using a cannon to kill a mosquito... As long as it could hit, it would definitely blow the target to smithereens.

At the moment when the impact arrived, the heroes also used their respective abilities... to prepare to meet the attack.

Tin Foil Man and Frogman had both adjusted the defense power of their battle armor to the maximum; Doctor Eternal had also put on a magical shield that could cover his whole body.

Mr. Shitty wrapped his body into a ball; Thousand-Eye Man closed all the eyes on his body...

As for Captain Shit Star and Poison Man... they both came to Jue Ge and Ben Bu's side. The former activated his ability - [Absolute Constipation Domain], covering all four of them in it, while the latter was using his ability to control poison to create oxygen.

Finally, the more bizarre ones were Million-Insect King and Lucky Man... they both sat in their original positions, not moving at all. They looked like they were saying, "Let the attacks come as they may, I'll just lie here and see if I'll die."

"Everyone, there's no need to go to so much trouble..."

However, no one expected that at this moment, Black Hole Queen, who was usually taciturn, actually said in a very calm tone.

"Such an attack..."

In fact, at the same time as she said the words "no need," the spaceship had already been hit by the light beam. However, the people on the ship did not feel any impact or vibration.

If someone were outside the spaceship at this moment, they would be able to see... at the moment the light beam hit, a semi-transparent black shield appeared outside the Tin Foil's own shield. And that... was naturally Black Hole Queen's doing.

"...I can block it."

When Black Hole Queen said the second half of this sentence, the laser cannon's attack had entered a period of decline, and after a few seconds... it gradually stopped.

[Energy reaction disappeared.]

[Checking damage rate...]

[Spaceship damage rate... 0%]

[Shield remaining energy... 91%]

The voice prompt in the cabin announced the result of the attack, and also made the heroes show different expressions.

"I say... Queen..." After a moment of silence, the first to speak was Lucky Man, "Do you have to do this every time..." He said in a half-joking tone, "Next time you're preparing to save the world at the last moment, try to tell us in advance."

"I didn't even want to say hello." Black Hole Queen replied, "But I was worried that it would make you feel deeply puzzled by what happened, and then waste time discussing it."

"Heh... Heh..." Lucky Man laughed dryly, not knowing how to respond.

"Alright, alright..." At this time, Feng Bujue immediately stood up and diverted the topic away from Black Hole Queen, "Anyway, the spaceship hasn't been destroyed and there are no casualties, that's all good things, let's land on the planet quickly."

"Still landing on the planet?" Hearing this, Thousand-Eye Man next to him followed up, "People have already launched this scale of defensive weapons, which means there must be a big misunderstanding, if we forcibly land on the planet again, we might be considered a declaration of war."

"Heh... What misunderstanding is there." Feng Bujue smiled, "Was that laser just now launched on the premise of a misunderstanding?"

"He's right." Before Jue Ge could finish speaking, Frogman immediately echoed, "This is definitely not a misunderstanding..." His tone sounded very serious, "I'm afraid we're already late... We have to land quickly."

"Everyone, I've switched to manual driving mode, estimated landing in three minutes." A second later, Tin Foil Man also added; in fact, Tin Foil Man had already started preparing to land on the planet before these few people had even started talking.

Obviously, as the two major intelligence officers of the Universal Superhero Alliance, Frogman and Tin Foil Man's ability to analyze the situation was no worse than Jue Ge's; the two things of "no one answering the communication" and "launching a sudden attack far exceeding the standard without any warning" were enough for them to deduce the situation on Blast Star.

First of all, as a planet that has joined the Galactic Federation and has a high degree of civilization, it is impossible for "no one to answer the star-sector communication"...

By the same token, it is also impossible to launch an attack on surrounding spaceships without issuing any warning information...

Also, the most obvious point... Why would the other party use a powerful star-sector-level laser strike weapon to hit a medium-sized spaceship? This shows that... what the other party really wants to destroy is not the spaceship, but the heroes riding on the spaceship who are more difficult to destroy than the spaceship itself.

In summary, the one who issued the attack order was definitely not the Blast Star government, but...

…………

At the same moment, Blast Star, Outer Space Observation and Defense Bureau.

"As expected, it won't work..." Doctor Diandian looked at the moving light spot on the screen and muttered thoughtfully, "No matter how advanced their spaceship is, it is impossible to withstand this attack, so... did a certain hero use his ability to block this attack..."

At this moment, Doctor Diandian was the only one left in the entire defense bureau's base.

The surface defense force originally stationed here was completely wiped out within ten minutes of contacting the doctor, and several heroes who rushed to the scene were also easily KO'd by him; as for the staff in the base... except for a few people who were killed by the battle, most of the others had escaped from the underground passage after the evacuation alarm sounded.

Of course, Doctor Diandian didn't need those personnel either, he could control the entire base by himself...

"Judging from this trend, even if we throw weapons of mass destruction at their landing point, it won't make much sense..." A few seconds later, the doctor pulled out his mechanical arm that was plugged into the equipment (he used this method to connect to the base's computer), and muttered, "And... those guys' landing point seems to be..."

As he spoke, he turned his head and looked out through the floor-to-ceiling windows on the side of the command tower.

At this moment... a spaceship swooped down from high altitude and drifted in the air along the edge of the tower of this command center.

Immediately afterwards, there was a loud crashing sound, and the strong air current shattered the glass in front of Doctor Diandian.

In the same second, several figures actually leaped out of the cargo hold door at the rear of the spaceship and jumped into the command center hall where the doctor was.

"I said..." Poison Man was the first to land, and as soon as he stood still, he looked up and said coldly, "It's okay to kill him, right?"

"It doesn't matter." Frogman, who followed closely behind, replied, "But you have to be careful, the other party is from the future and may know our situation like the back of his hand..."

Chi--

Before Frogman could finish speaking, Poison Man's figure flashed and appeared in front of Doctor Diandian.

"You don't seem to be very polite to your fellow villagers..." After Poison Man appeared, he glared at the doctor and said with a grim expression.

The reason he said this was because he had seen the wreckage of traffic combat vehicles and the bodies of soldiers all over the apron around this base when he was on the spaceship.

However, what he didn't know was... that the people who died here were not all of them; long before they arrived at Blast Star, Doctor Diandian had already hacked into the entire planet's military system through the network in this base, and used Blast Star's own military equipment to destroy more than 100 government office buildings located in various parts of the planet.

At this time, Blast Star had already fallen into a true "state of anarchy"...

"You seem very angry..." Doctor Diandian faced Poison Man, a universe-level hero (although these levels had not been set at this time, but if you were to count them, all ten members of the Universal Superhero Alliance were currently universe-level), and was still calm and composed, "But what is the reason for your anger? Is it because of the death of a group of strangers? Or is it based on some illusion that you call 'sense of justice'?"

Poof--

What responded to Doctor Diandian was not language, but attack.

In the blink of an eye, Poison Man's right forearm almost instantly turned into a sharp blade, piercing into Doctor Diandian's chest.

"Hmph... As expected... and an attack so simple that it makes me feel sad." But Doctor Diandian did not show any expression of pain, and even his tone did not change in the slightest, "Your ability can easily wipe out the creatures on the entire planet's surface, but you chose this primitive attack method that even cavemen would use."

"Then you can try... to see if you can survive this method." When Poison Man responded to this sentence, a wisp of white smoke suddenly emerged from the doctor's wound.

"Heh..." Seeing this, Doctor Diandian smiled, "So that's how it is... First turn the arm into a sharp blade and insert it into my body, and then secrete a highly corrosive venom from the forearm to destroy me."

"Yeah... Considering that you guy may have already transformed your body into a state where it will not produce any physiological poisoning reactions..." Poison Man replied, "It's a good choice to dissolve you physically."

"Well, that's indeed a good idea." Doctor Diandian nodded, "But you'd better see clearly... who is dissolving who now?"
