Steel bars were inserted into the center of Times Square. They were inserted by Clark and then twisted together. They stood at the intersection of the world like a steel jungle.
As time passed, the news about the Times Square incident became more and more popular. More insider information about this incident was exposed.
The destruction of the university campus, the wreckage of the fighter jet, and the attack on the White House in Washington stimulated the public's eyes one after another. It was even more exciting than an American blockbuster.
In particular, the S on Clark's chest, as well as the strength, speed, and flying ability he displayed made people very curious about his true identity.
This made the reporters in America want to keep an eye on the situation 24 hours a day. However, the American government soon designated the area within a three-kilometer radius of Times Square as a military-controlled area.
Although there were still reporters who wanted to sneak in, they were unable to break through the blockade in the face of the military's strength and capture the situation inside Times Square.
However, not everyone would give up.
In a building five kilometers away from Times Square, Louise was holding an optical telescope and searching for the location of Times Square.
Behind her, a cameraman said, "Louise, this isn't a good idea. If the military finds out, we'll be finished."
Louise said impatiently, "Don't do it if you don't want to. This is Superman. This is big news that hasn't happened in 5,000 years. It's enough for us to win the Pulitzer Prize."
The cameraman pursed his lips and said softly, "Don't tell me you really think that you can hook up with Superman just because you're called Louise? Moreover, this guy doesn't look like a real Superman. "
Louise could not be bothered with him. She stared into the distance through the binoculars. Suddenly, she exclaimed, "Look, what are they doing?"
In the empty space and on the buildings in the distance, countless special forces soldiers were moving out. They were holding a series of strange devices in their hands and on their backs.
"It looks like some kind of weapon," the cameraman said. "It's too far. I can't get a clear picture."
However, at the next moment, the entire space seemed to tremble. Visible ripples radiated out from the direction of Times Square. This was the latest sonic weapon developed by the United States.
It could directly attack a human's brain, nerves, and internal organs through infrasound. It could cause death through the resonance of its natural frequency. It could even penetrate more than ten meters of concrete or tank steel plates. It was useless even if one hid.
However, even such a powerful weapon that specialized in attacking the insides of the human body was still helpless against Clark.
He pressed his ears as if he had heard some noise. He turned his head and looked in the direction of the soldiers. Crimson high-energy particles shot out from his eyes, sweeping across the entire sky like searchlights.
Dozens of soldiers and equipment turned into dust without making a sound under the illumination of the rays.
Wherever the light passed, the steel bars were melted and the cement was disintegrated. More than ten buildings were cut in half and collapsed with a loud rumbling sound. Smoke and dust filled the air and caused countless panic.
"Retreat! Retreat! "
"Infrasound weapons are ineffective."
"Retreat at full speed!"
The panicked voices of the American troops kept coming through the radio signals.
On a building five kilometers away, Louise screamed, "Did you get it? Did you manage to capture it? "
Although she didn't manage to capture a specific battle scene this time, just being able to capture Superman's signature move made Louise ecstatic.
Half an hour later, reports and videos of Superman shooting out thermal rays began to go viral on the Internet.
On the other hand, the commanders in the Pentagon were having a headache.
"Infrasound weapons are ineffective."
"According to our calculations, his entire body is covered by a layer of high-intensity force field."
"Call the White House."
In the White House's office, Secretary of Defense frowned. "Has Battle Plan 32 also failed?" For close to 45 hours, the American troops had experimented with countless of the most advanced weapons and the most terrifying attacks. Other than heavy weapons such as nuclear bombs and fuel-air explosives, they had tried almost all methods.
However, since even radioactive toxins, high-energy laser attacks, infrasound, strong sound waves, and ion flames of over 20,000 degrees Celsius could not kill the other party, then nuclear bombs would probably not be able to either.
Secretary of Defense tilted his head and said, "Have the people he requested been prepared?"
"Yes, the Special Activities Department has urgently recruited 30 physicists and 200 engineers from NASA."
"Have we sent our people in?"
"Yes."
Three hours later, under extremely confidential circumstances, 30 renowned physicists and 200 engineers arrived in New York. Under Clark's command, they would carry out the construction of the transmission gate as well as various cutting-edge experiments.
Through the extremely high relative flow of time in this world, Zuo Qingcang would make great progress from these experiments and further perfect his abilities.
The United States military had thoroughly understood Clark's strength in these 45 hours of battle. Although they were unwilling to admit it, the other party was indeed an opponent they could not defeat at the moment.
The project to find Clark's weakness and defeat Superman was still being carried out secretly. However, both manpower and financial resources had been placed at the lowest priority.
On the contrary, the United States government spared no effort in protecting Clark, or rather, in protecting Times Square.
The area within a five-kilometer radius had been turned into a restricted military zone. A large number of barracks, sentry posts, laboratories, dormitories, and other facilities had been set up. Countless spies from financial groups, the government, the military, and other forces had gathered here in order to obtain further information on Clark.
All the humans related to Clark were also under strict protection. Almost everyone around them was gradually replaced by FBI agents.
Times Square had become the most mysterious place in the world from the previous intersection of the world. Countless reports came out from there every day. Everyone was concerned about this Superman who had suddenly appeared and what he wanted to do.
Time passed by in a tense atmosphere. The United States' upper echelon had to look at the information that flowed out from Times Square every day. It was because Zuo Qingcang had communicated with several tens of physicists through Clark, and many theories that surpassed the times were hidden by the United States' government.
These were all physics theories that were enough to shock and change the entire world. Because of the emergence of this knowledge, many high-level figures in the United States believed that Clark was Superman. Many people thought that this was technology from Krypton.
It was not until six months later that Clark's news among the people cooled down a little. However, the world was destined to usher in new turmoil and uneasiness.
Various religions were born, various movements broke out, and local conflicts intensified. China, Russia, the United Kingdom, Japan, and other countries expressed strong dissatisfaction with the United States for hiding Superman. Bing asked them to announce all the results of their exchanges with Superman.
All kinds of great changes had taken place on Earth, but Clark did not care about them. He only carried out various experiments and the construction of the transmission gate under the command of Zuo Qingcang.
President Trump looked at the blueprints on the table and asked, "Do you think I can understand what this is? Just tell me. "
A physicist with a full beard said, "Mr. President, based on the advanced knowledge we learned from Clark and his understanding of quantum foam, we guessed that this thing, which is the thing that Clark built with all his strength, is probably some kind of space-time transmission gate."
"Space-time transmission gate?" President Trump frowned and asked, "Where does it lead to?"
"I don't know. The technology of this transmission gate is at least 100 years ahead of us. It may lead to Mars, Jupiter, or other galaxies, or even other universes.
But I believe that he didn't build this thing just to travel to Europe. "
The bearded man made a cold joke, and no one present could laugh.
President Trump said seriously, "Find a way to stop him. No matter what is on the other side of the gate, we can't let him come over."
At this moment, an intelligence officer rushed in. "There's a blackout in New York."
The bearded man said in shock, "Impossible. According to the plan, there should be another month before he can complete the transmission gate."
