.....

Zod's chest was pierced by Superman's heat vision.

Despite the Kryptonian's strong physique and the additional protection of his Kryptonian armor, under the full force of Superman's heat vision, Zod's chest was burned through, leaving a large gaping hole.

"Ahhh!!!"

Zod screamed in agony, struggling violently due to the pain of having his chest pierced, but Roger held him down firmly.

It didn't take long for Superman to stop his heat vision, and Zod's heart had already been penetrated by it.

Even with the life force enhanced by being a Kryptonian, he couldn't survive long with a damaged heart. Zod's life began to slip away as the searing pain from his chest burned on.

Roger let go of Zod, who was gradually losing his strength, and took a few steps back, instinctively feeling his own chest.

Superman hadn't held back at all when using his heat vision to kill Zod. If Kryptonian skin wasn't so tough, the heat vision could've gone right through Zod's body and struck Roger.

Luckily... luckily, Zod's body was sturdy enough. The heat vision only penetrated the front of his body and didn't exit through the other side.

Otherwise, Roger wasn't sure he could withstand Superman's heat vision.

Jean, who had been using her telekinesis from the shadows to restrain Zod, stood with Roger and watched Superman speak to the now dying Zod. Zod lay on the ground, facing up.

He hadn't anticipated this to be his final outcome. Turning his gaze to Superman, who was kneeling beside him, he spoke:

"You... destroyed Krypton and killed your kinsman... Kal-El, you are... Krypton's greatest sinner..."

With these last words, Zod's life came to an end.

Superman remained kneeling by Zod's corpse, unable to recover from the shock for a long time.

Superman was likely carrying a heavy burden in his heart, one that would take him a long time to process.

Roger didn't disturb Superman. Once he confirmed Zod's death, he took Jean and left the battlefield.

They weren't from this world. The disaster had already drawn some attention to them, and if they stayed any longer, it might cause trouble.

Thus, Roger and Jean didn't linger. Taking advantage of the fact that the others weren't yet focusing on them, the two quickly left Metropolis.

The events in Metropolis made Earth's people aware of the existence of extraterrestrials. At the same time, with Superman still on Earth possessing immense power, humanity began discussions on how to coexist with him.

As Roger expected, his and Jean's appearance also sparked a frenzy of discussions among the public.

From the perspective of the citizens, the newly appeared "aliens" had abilities similar to Superman's, but the conversation between the Kryptonians made it clear that these aliens were not Kryptonians.

The two, who had appeared together, a man and a red-haired girl, were likely aliens from somewhere else.

What worried Earth's people even more was that, unlike Superman, who was consistently in the public eye, the two "alien heroes" who had saved countless lives in Metropolis didn't reappear afterward.
