“Corporal Coburn, there will be some pain when the nerves are connected.”

In the room flashing with alarm red light, Ennis’s forehead was sweating, and he hurriedly reminded.

On the experimental platform, John Coburn was helped by the laboratory staff to put on a powerful exoskeleton, which was all silver-gray metal, with only his head exposed.

He exuded the aura of an elite soldier, but there was a hint of arrogance between his eyebrows. He was a soldier handpicked and trained by General Lane, the elite among the special forces.

“Do you know how I spent these five years, Doctor?”

He grinned with a hint of madness.

“Of course, I do.” The doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead. He had also been involved in the development of the training program, which was nothing short of hellish.

In addition to training the body, the most important thing was to train the will, so that people could withstand the armor after enduring various forms of training that could be described as torturous, and their will became as strong as steel.

“Then come on, Doctor.”

After the nerve devices were inserted into the back of his head, John Coburn grunted twice, and his face showed an eager ferocity and excitement.

“I have been preparing for this moment for five years. I can’t wait to experience the power of the Mark Zero armor.”

“I heard that Louise is very interested in that Superman, and she has been following his footsteps in Metropolis, wanting to interview him. After today, Superman will be a fleeting meteor in the sky, and no one will remember him.”

As a childhood playmate of Louise Lane and always fond of her, John Coburn’s face showed no concealment of ferocity.

“Now, initiate the power transfer.”

Almost all the electrical power stored in the base was infused into the exoskeleton. John Coburn seemed to merge with the exoskeleton, and electric light appeared in his eyes. He seemed to be tormented by electric shocks, letting out a painful roar.

“Oh my god, his heartbeat… 150, 200…”

The experimenters anxiously grabbed the tablet monitoring the body data, and the heartbeat was soaring.

“His heart is about to explode!”

“Quick, save him!” Several experimenters were about to rush over.

“No need, I can feel it…”

But John Coburn, with a hint of madness on his face, stood up, and with hands that seemed to have infinite strength, the armor seemed to become an extension of his body, and he could feel this power.

“I have never felt better!”

He now felt incredibly powerful.

Prometheus? He remembered the internal name of the overall plan.

“If I were the Prometheus of mythology, I wouldn’t choose to steal, I would choose to kill Zeus and seize the heavenly fire of mankind.”

Hahaha!

John Coburn laughed wildly, put on the helmet of the armor, and leaped through the thick cement ceiling, breaking through like a fragile eggshell, propelled by the thrusters, soaring a hundred meters into the sky.

The wind whistled in his ears.

He looked at the display projection inside the helmet of the armor, locked onto a figure in the base that was full of purple light and unstoppable, and propelled himself with energy flames, like a missile, the metallic muscles bulging high, raising his fist.

“I don’t know what kind of monster you are. I will make you the first extraterrestrial scum to be defeated by the Mark Zero armor!”

“Be careful. Something is flying at extreme speed.”

Clark, with his eyes closed, heard the sound and hurriedly warned his brother, faster than the Blackbird fighter.

“A high-tech exoskeleton for combat?”

To alleviate the pain of some soldiers who were severely injured by missiles, David looked up at the sky, squinting.

The exoskeleton was not bulky at all, but agile and fast, and it seemed to be at least as advanced as Iron Man’s Mark II in terms of technological content.

Whoosh!

The powerful exoskeleton easily broke the sound barrier, with an unstoppable and powerful momentum in an instant.

In the blink of an eye, David’s fist lit up with purple light, and the gathered energy formed a spherical shape. He stood on the ground with his slender body, calmly and forcefully punched, colliding fiercely with the iron fist.

Bang!

The soldiers on the cement ground were blown away like straw, and the several-ton armored vehicle was lifted by the surging air wave like a matchbox.

Under the collision of unimaginable and terrifying power, the earth cracked.

Fragments of cement were blown away, and the exposed soil was swept around, as if meteorites were falling, and a deep pit with a diameter of a dozen meters suddenly appeared.

The entire base was trembling.

Ceiling dust fell, and looking at the large hole broken by the Mark Zero armor flying away, Ennis crouched on the ground, holding his head, with a bad premonition.

It seemed that John Coburn had successfully survived the nerve connection, but he always felt that the five years of brutal training had made Coburn’s mind somewhat abnormal.

Bang!

With a muffled groan, Clark was blown away by the air wave, and he knocked over a forklift, looking very embarrassed.

David turned his head to look, but there was no need to worry about Clark. No matter how weak he was, his physical strength remained unchanged. He looked back at the exoskeleton in front of him.

Except for the armor on the helmet, chest, feet, and hands, the rest was all steel muscles that were high and bulging with a shimmering metal luster. The silver-gray exoskeleton was full of a powerful and oppressive force, like an immovable mountain.

“Upon closer inspection, it is completely different from Mark II, and the strength is worlds apart.”

Looking at the iron fist that collided with his own, it didn’t shatter, and there wasn’t even a dent?

David raised an eyebrow, and with a powerful kick, he sent the Mark Zero armor flying.

The armor flew nearly two meters, and he dug deep furrows in the ground with his fingers, stopping its momentum.

John Coburn looked excitedly at the deep pit he had created in front of him, looked at his hands, and trembled with excitement all over.

He was so powerful now.

“What kind of metal is this armor made of? Its hardness is almost comparable to Amazonian metal.”

David was surprised by the hardness of this armor.

Amazonian metal was the raw material for the weapons forged by the Greek gods.

In the DC world, it was a powerful metal forged with incredible hardness, and he knew a little about it.For instance, the Eternium metal used by the 30th-century Legion of Super-Heroes is said to be nearly indestructible, requiring Kryptonians to exert all their strength to break it, yet if the thickness is too great, even Kryptonians would be at a loss.

Take Kryptonian metal, for example, the material used for Kryptonian spacecraft and armor, or the super metal named for its incredibly hard veins that can only be mined by Superman using his heat vision to soften it.

“But none of these should be within the reach or use of the American military.”

Moreover, the energy that had just been on his fist seemed to have been absorbed by the armor?

An energy-absorbing metal, it reminded him of a powerful metal accidentally created in the DC world, akin to Marvel’s Adamantium—Promethium.

“Come on, let’s see your strength, extraterrestrial scum.”

John Corben, with his arrogant and wild laughter, leaped from the cracked earth, swinging his fist that could sink warships, smashing towards David.

“Idiot!”

Mistaken for an alien, David’s face darkened as he swung his fist to meet the attack, each punch heavier than the last, clashing with the steel armor with the force of a mountainous blow, driving the Zero armor into a steady retreat.

Like two titans from myth battling, their punches and kicks collided, sending out rings of white shockwaves that swept away everything around them.

“Move in, capture him!”

The soldiers nearby, holding rifles, stayed away from the terrifying battlefield, pouncing like fierce wolves towards Clark, who had just risen from the ground.
