"Why do I feel like I've seen that man with the golden upper body who knelt on one knee to Eric somewhere before?"
Before she could finish her sentence, Louise beside her let out a surprised sound.
"Oh my god!"
Following Louise's gaze downwards, Chloe also saw a scene that left her dumbfounded.
Eric slowly lifted the entire city, and it slowly flew into the sky.
The entire city, illuminated by the sunlight, emitted dazzling, ethereal colors.
"Holy cow!"
Looking at the massive city, like a piece of the earth's crust peeled away, being lifted by Eric, Chloe's eyes widened in extreme shock.
She had never imagined that someone could lift an entire city, and with such effortless ease.
The visual impact before her even made her feel a little dizzy.
Just as she was immersed in shock, Louise beside her had already sprung into action, continuously taking photos with her camera.
"I'm regretting now that I didn't drag Jimmy here. Otherwise, Jimmy could definitely take even better photos."
Louise said while taking pictures, "This is truly amazing! Even if someone said he was a god, I believe no one would refute it now."
"A god!?"
Watching Eric lift the city, gradually disappearing into the horizon, Chloe murmured softly.
She had never thought that her junior high and high school classmate could now achieve such a feat.
Pulling her complex thoughts back, she said to her cousin, "You were the one who didn't let Jimmy come."
"Of course not."
Louise, of course, denied her cousin's "slander." "I did it for you, Chloe. Jimmy has a crush on you, and he wants to ask you out, so he's trying every possible way to create opportunities. But I know you don't feel anything for him, so I played the bad guy and ruined his chances of being alone with you."
Louise smiled slightly at Chloe, "So I'm helping you, after all, you can't forget Clark, can you?"
Hearing Louise mention Clark, Chloe sighed, "Now I don't know where Clark is, after all, Eric is already like this, and he still hasn't appeared."
"My feelings are different from yours."
The cheerful Louise signaled the helicopter pilot to speed up, then turned to Chloe and said, "I have a painful dilemma. Although I really want to stop Eric, and even now I think he's a scoundrel no one can compare to. But…"
She paused for a moment and said, "He's a guy who can create news headlines, you have to admit that."
"News?"
Chloe sighed slightly in her heart and said to her cousin, "He is the news itself now."
Evening.
After the matter with the Atlanteans and Arthur concluded, Eric led his team back to the Justice Society.
Upon returning to the Justice Society, just as he was about to discuss with Wonder Woman and others how to draft the treaty with Atlantis, he received a call from his mother.
Martha wanted him to come back to the farm.
After hanging up the phone, Eric had no choice but to return to Kent Farm first.
Entering the farm and pushing open the room door, he found that besides his mother, there were two familiar people in the room.
Chloe and Louise!
"So you two are the ones who asked Mom to call me over, right?"
Eric frowned and asked the two women.
"No."
Louise immediately denied, "We just came over to chat with Martha."
"I asked you to come back, Eric."
Martha was brewing coffee. After seeing Eric come in, she said to him, "Louise and Chloe just happened to come over."
Putting down the coffee pot, Martha asked Eric, "What happened today? I saw many people in town talking about it."
"A small accident."
Eric turned around to explain to his mother, "Those Atlanteans from the seabed wanted to wage war on the land, so I taught them a lesson, pulled their city out of the sea, and put it in the desert."
"I knew it!"
Louise let out a surprised sound, "I guessed it early on, that was the city of the Atlanteans."
Her eyes showed an excited expression, "I originally thought it was a legendary city, I didn't expect it to actually exist. Who is that person holding the trident? Is he the leader of the Atlanteans? Where did they come from? What kind of abilities do they possess, and are they like what Plato described?"
Eric looked at the chattering Louise, frowned, and said to her, "Louise, your identity right now isn't a reporter, but a primary school student whose head is filled with 'A Hundred Thousand Whys'."
"So I need you to enlighten me even more."
Louise replied to Eric.
"I remember you weren't this gossipy before. Weren't you always condemning me in the newspapers? Almost every page of the Daily Planet, especially the section you're responsible for, Louise, you've always been publishing attacks on me."
Eric poured a cup of coffee and slowly said to Louise, "From a strict standpoint, we should be enemies."
"That's not contradictory."
Louise smiled slightly, "Homelander and I are enemies, but Eric and I are friends. Chloe is too."
She turned her gaze to Chloe beside her.
