30. Heading Towards Destruction.

30. Heading Towards Destruction.

Perhaps it was because he was so exhausted that Alex slept for a full seventeen hours. Before he slept, the sun was still up, and when he woke up, it was bright outside again.

He had initially thought that the turmoil of recent events would make it difficult to sleep soundly, causing him to have various nightmares. However, in reality, he slept incredibly well, without any dreams, until daylight.

Aside from feeling a bit uncomfortable from sleeping too long, Alex felt remarkably good all over.

"Piètrò, what time is it?" Alex asked as he groggily climbed out of bed and stretched.

However, there was no response to his question. Alex raised an eyebrow and turned to look, only to see Piètrò sitting on the bed with his back to him, wearing headphones, and doing something. There was also a bottle of cola next to him.

Headphones? Cola?

Alex was momentarily stunned and then rubbed his eyes.

He saw that the previously empty room was now filled with several large boxes stacked in the corner, which appeared to contain various snacks based on their packaging. There were also several large unopened boxes of cola on the floor. Besides, several phones were casually placed on the bed, and Piètrò was tinkering with a computer.

Alex's mouth twitched as he got out of bed, unsure of where to step amidst all the stuff.

Seemingly hearing the commotion behind him, Piètrò turned his head and took off his headphones. "Alex, you're awake! I have to tell you, this world is amazing! There are so many games I've never played before!"

"You rascal," Alex said, covering his face. Without a doubt, Piètrò must have stole these things from somewhere. With his speed, it wasn't surprising that he could do this. It seemed like Piètrò's legs were truly healed.

"Do you have anything to eat?" Alex knew that Piètrò was just too excited about being in a new environment. Although stealing was wrong, now wasn't the time to correct his values.

"Of course, I have pizza and hamburgers here. If you want anyother type of food, I can go get it for you right now and be back in ten seconds, but it will be a random selection."

"Alright, alright, stop thinking about it. It has nothing to do with quantum mechanics, parallel universes, or dimensional mismatches. The reason we have to leave here is simple: this world is about to end, understand? It's going to be destroyed soon."

"This world is going to be destroyed?" Piètrò's mouth dropped open. "How is that possible? This world is so nice, no wars, people living peacefully, and there's great food and games. Who would destroy it?"

Alex slapped his own face in frustration. "Please, when you went out this morning to bring all this stuff back, didn't you stop to check the news? This is what the whole world is talking about right now. You've been out so many times, and you didn't notice?"

"Oh, that." Piètrò scratched his head awkwardly. "I was too busy dodging surveillance cameras. And if I stopped, I might have been caught red-handed."

"Sigh." Alex walked over to Piètrò, turned the laptop screen to face him, and opened a news homepage at random, showing the live monitoring of General Zod's Kryptonian spaceship hovering in the sky.

"See this? This alien spaceship? This planet might not be destroyed by war, but our situation in the universe isn't safe either. On that ship is a guy named Zod, and he's about to destroy this planet."

Listening to Alex's explanation, Piètrò stared intently at the screen. To be honest, the spaceship did look quite intimidating.

"Isn't there anyone on this planet who can stop him?" Piètrò found it hard to believe that such a large planet could be destroyed by just one spaceship.

"There was supposed to be. This planet originally had a group called the Justice League. You can think of it as another version of the Avengers. If they were here, they could indeed stop Zod. But unfortunately, in this universe, most members of the Justice League were never born, and those who were haven't gained their superpowers yet."

"How could that be..."

"Because this universe is an artificially created parallel world. I don't know how to explain it, but you can think of it as a universe where no one can stop all this."

Alex spread his hands. "Even with the two of us, we can't do it."
