Superman Termination Manual

On the 45th floor of the Superhero Tower, in the Commander’s private office.

"The Dice Monster probably used some kind of invisibility ability. He must have jumped from the highest point nearby onto the surface of the Superhero Tower; otherwise, the alarm would have gone off sooner." Che Zhengchen explained to the blue owl while staring intently at the projector screen through his glasses.

"Dice Monster?"

Muttering the name, the blue owl then said, "What’s that thing doing at the Superhero Tower? Surely it’s not strapped with a nuclear bomb, trying to go down together with the Superhero Association?"

"There’s actually a possibility of that." Che Zhengchen’s face grew serious, "We’ve always paid close attention to this character, even though his actions are somewhat illogical."

While looking at the projector screen, he continued, "Although we don’t know his target, or which part of the Association Building he’s aiming for, he’s already reached the thirtieth something floor. Just above this are where some elite Superheroes rest, and someone will soon move to stop him..."

As he spoke, Che Zhengchen’s expression suddenly changed, "Wait, he seems to be heading for us!"

On the projector screen, the Dice Monster was spiraling upwards along the surface of the Superhero Tower using spider silk, gliding through the air beneath the heavens much like an acrobat.

Since it kept shifting, appearing now on the west side of the building, now on the north, and then flitting to the east side, its destination was unclear.

One thing was certain, though—it was continuously ascending towards the pinnacle of the tower.

Then, as it neared the thirty-ninth floor, it shot spider silk upward, sticking to the aerial work platform, pulled on the silk to swing upward, and landed on the railing of the platform.

Then, disengaging safety constraints, it crouched to gather energy and burst upward from the railing, rocketing up like a gray streak of lightning, instantly passing several floor sections.

"Quickly press the button behind the vase to your right; it can initiate metal protection mode for the office side facing the windows."

As he spoke, Che Zhengchen quickly rose from behind his desk and turned to look at the floor-to-ceiling window behind him. At that very moment, his pupils contracted slightly.

He saw a gray humanoid figure, sinuous as a dragon or serpent, leapt into the air, appearing outside the floor-to-ceiling window.

There was a mocking, eerie smile on its face, with inscrutable light swirling in its hollow pupils, floating in mid-air as it briefly locked eyes with Che Zhengchen.

In the next moment, two strands of spider silk shot out from the Dice Monster’s wrist-mounted web shooter, sticking to the floor-to-ceiling window like death’s own grasp.

Then, gripping a strand of silk in each hand, it pulled hard and propelled itself forward with ferocious force, shattering the glass window with a brutal kick.

Bang—!

Amid the rain of glass shards flying in all directions, the Dice Monster once again lowered its right arm and shot a strand of spider silk that precisely latched onto the disappearing figure of Che Zhengchen.

It dragged Che Zhengchen toward itself with the right hand, then, with a swift motion of its arm, the Dice Monster locked his neck within its grasp, pulling him along as they both plunged towards the ground below the high-rise.

The blue owl’s right hand was poised on the "metal defense switch" behind the vase when he saw this scene unfold and was completely taken aback. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

"What the hell?"

As he spoke, a layer of metal barrier swiftly descended from above the window, attempting to envelop the entire window.

But the blue owl, seizing the moment before the metal barrier could descend, dashed forward, squeezed through the broken window, and then plummeted from a height of one hundred and fifty-nine meters above, heading straight down into the steel city below!

At this very moment, the Dice Monster and Che Zhengchen were clinging onto the glass curtain wall, falling downwards.

The Dice Monster’s grin was reflected on the glass curtain wall, along with Che Zhengchen’s fearful and shocked face.

He pulled fiercely at the Dice Monster’s right arm with both hands, yet he dared not exert too much force. If the Dice Monster really let go in mid-air, his own life would be forfeit.

Che Zhengchen’s pupils shrank to the size of wheat grains. He couldn’t imagine that he would end up in such a situation at the Superhero Tower. Did this criminal really not consider how to escape from the encirclement of hundreds of Superheroes after attacking the tower?

Or was it simply that he was a lunatic who didn’t think about the consequences of his actions at all?

The fast falling wind lifted Che Zhengchen’s gold-rimmed glasses, and the pressure distorted his face almost beyond recognition, obscuring the details of his features. His carefully styled hair from the morning had now become disheveled and unruly.

At this point, the Superheroes stationed in the Association Building were all in full motion, with those capable of flying converging from above to corner the Dice Monster.

This included the familiar figures of Platinum Wing and Telekinetic Nun. Read the latest on freewebnovel

One of them spread out silver-white wings and pursued Dice Monster; another enveloped herself in a sphere of telekinesis, descending towards the ground like a pale blue orb.

Superheroes who lacked the power of flight rapidly arrived at the ground, standing at the base of the Superhero Tower, awaiting the fall of the Dice Monster.

One of the superheroes, known as "Balloon Hero," had the superpower to inflate his body. He puffed out his cheeks, inhaled deeply to fill his lungs with air, and his body, dressed in a yellow battle suit, suddenly expanded, especially his enormous belly, which became a giant safety airbag.

Meanwhile, Blue Owl descended rapidly from mid-air, trying to get close to Dice Monster. His plan was simple: at the moment they neared the ground, he would use "Phase Transfer" to swap places with Dice Monster, hoping to bring Che Zhengchen back...

But this plan was too risky. He was still one step too late and couldn’t close the distance to within eight meters of Dice Monster.

Before Dice Monster could enter the range where Blue Owl could execute Phase Transfer, at the instant it reached seven meters above the ground, a door made of dense religious text suddenly appeared beneath it. At that moment, this mysterious door was radiating a sacred, untouchable glow.

The next moment, Dice Monster fell through that glowing, holy doorway with Che Zhengchen, and they, along with the doorway itself, disappeared without a trace.

Just like that, in full view of everyone, they escaped to the heavens, vanished without a trace.

Platinum Wing stopped in mid-air, flapping his wings to maintain ascending momentum, and looked around in shock, "Dice Monster... disappeared?"

The Telekinetic Nun hovered beside him in her telekinesis sphere, "I just saw a golden door. It vanished right after hitting that door."

"Is it a superpower...?" Platinum Wing pondered aloud.

"Not sure." The Telekinetic Nun shook her head, then suddenly looked up. Her tone shifted, "Wait, isn’t that Blue Owl?"

"Blue Owl? What’s he doing here?"

Platinum Wing paused for a moment and then turned to look, only to see Blue Owl passing by not too far away, plummeting straight toward the earth, "Wait, he’s falling. Why aren’t you saving him?"

"I barely have enough telekinesis to keep myself afloat, how can I save him?" The Telekinetic Nun asked.

"Damn it!"

Upon hearing that, Platinum Wing violently flapped his wings, creating a sharp gust of wind as he dived rapidly downward.

On the ground in front of the Superhero Tower, someone shouted at Balloon Hero, who had become an "inflated airbag" and was lying on the ground, "Balloon Hero! Adjust your position quickly, Dice Monster disappeared, but there’s a superhero falling down over there!"

"It’s Blue Owl!"

"He clearly doesn’t have the ability to fly, why did he jump off following Dice Monster?!"

Originally, Balloon Hero had inflated his belly to catch Dice Monster and Che Zhengchen, but now Dice Monster had vanished, replaced by a superhero plummeting from the sky and still some distance away from his location.

This series of unexpected events caught him off guard all at once.

"I can’t adjust my position in time; someone catch him!"

Balloon Hero shouted gutturally, his breath pouring out of him, causing his chunky body to quickly revert to its original size. He scrambled to his feet, his face filled with panic as he looked towards Blue Owl, plummeting rapidly from the sky.

Blue Owl thought he could use Phase Transfer to switch positions with nearby superheroes, and the momentum from falling would be gone in the instant of the switch - he had tested this before.

If he weren’t concerned about the onlookers, he could use the "Superhero Landing" to be extra safe, but at this moment, under the guise of Blue Owl and in front of an audience, such a landing would blur his association with Dice Monster.

Nevertheless, it didn’t matter. There were plenty of superheroes around his landing zone. He could safely land by swapping places with any of them using Phase Transfer.

However, just as he was about to hit the ground, at ten meters in the air, a curtain of pitch-black crow feathers suddenly fluttered past his eyes. Immediately after, thousands of crows descended from the sky like a vast cloud, enveloping Blue Owl in their midst.

Blue Owl, lifted by the mysterious flock of crows, was gently carried by their tender wing beats and lowered towards the ground at the base of the Tower.

At that moment, all the surrounding superheroes fell silent, knowing who had intervened...

Blue Owl looked up in a daze, only to see a figure shrouded in a dark cloak standing in the midst of the crows. As the flock dispersed, the figure came into full view.

"Remember to think before you act..."

Qing Ya dropped that remark as she coldly glanced at Blue Owl through her beak mask. Then, accompanied by a buzzing sound like raging bees, her figure vanished in an instant, leaving only a flurry of scattered crow feathers drifting to the ground.
