American comics: Enlightenment in Arkham, Ascension to Homelander
Chapter 384 Trouble is coming
Listening to Lex's words and looking at Bruce's wary eyes.
Clark's heart trembled, and he looked at Jor-El and asked as calmly as possible.
"Is that so?"
Facing Clark's question, Jor-El was silent for a while, and then did not answer the question directly, but spoke softly to everyone.
"Back then, before my planet was completely destroyed, I made more than a dozen plans for Carl's whereabouts.
But the reason why I chose Earth is because the genes of Earth humans are closest to those of us Kryptonians.
To be more precise, that is to say...
There is no reproductive isolation between Earthlings and us Kryptonians.
As a father, I sincerely hope that my son can grow up safely on this planet, and form his own family, find his own love, and have the opportunity to raise children."
At this point, Jor-El pretended to take a breath.
After taking a deep breath, he continued to try his best to explain to everyone.
"I admit that I do have a lot of selfishness, but more of it comes from a father's desire for his son, rather than a family patriarch's desire for the future of his family.
And what if I want to do something to the Earth?
Let's put it this way, this Kryptonian spaceship appeared on Earth 18,000 years ago, and at that time, humans were not even the masters of the Earth.
At least from this perspective, we Kryptonians are not pure guests of the Earth.
If even so, you still want to push everything on my so-called ambition, then I have nothing to say, and I don't need to say it.
Because I have been dead for 23 years, this is just a phantom and memory of my mind.
I don't care what you will do to me and this spaceship, I just hope you can take good care of my son, that's all."
After the voice fell, Joel nodded solemnly to everyone, his eyes especially stayed on Donton.
He knew who was the one who had the final say, and Donton was obviously the boss of the group including his son.
So, he looked at Downton's eyes with great sincerity, and there was a little more pleading and desire in his eyes.
Seeing such a situation, Jor-El, Lex and Bruce looked at each other and looked at Downton.
"What do you think we should do, Don?" Lex asked softly.
"Just do what we should do. No matter what the old man planned at the beginning, the current situation is definitely not under his control.
We can just pretend that he doesn't exist. Next, we will act according to the plan, take away this spaceship, absorb the Kryptonian technological heritage, and comfort Clark's disappointed heart by the way, haha~"
Downton laughed and waved his hands. His words made Lex and Bruce feel relieved.
Since Downton thinks it's okay, there shouldn't be any big problem.
However, although there is nothing that Downton cares about, Lex and the others are still worried.
So, they immediately asked Jor-El, who was also relieved.
"Mr. Jor-El, I'm Lex Luthor, Clark's friend.
I want to know the current situation of Krypton... Clark's hometown, and the approximate number of Kryptonians left."
"I understand your concerns, but that may not be necessary."
Jor-El nodded, and then made a regretful expression to Clark, who was showing a concerned look on the side.
Then, Jor-El raised his right hand.
All of a sudden, many nanomaterials emerged from the floor of the bridge, and those materials quickly formed many pictures, showing the past of Krypton.
In the eyes of everyone, a huge planet with a long ring of stars completely exploded after a brief collapse.
Beside the picture, Jor-El explained to everyone.
"Your Earth is still a healthy planet, and you have never faced the destruction of the planet.
Then you should know now that the destruction of Krypton is not a situation where a barren land gradually becomes more and more barren.
It was destroyed very suddenly and very thoroughly.
Almost none of my people can escape from such a disaster. I dare not guarantee that there are more than two-digit Kryptonians in the universe.
I understand your worries, but I also hope that you can understand our past. Krypton is gone, and my child Kal-El is now alone.
Although he is stronger than ordinary humans, or a little smarter.
But he has long lost his identity as a Kryptonian. Now he is just a slightly extraordinary earthling!
I am willing to give you all the knowledge that I can control and recorded by this spacecraft.
In exchange, I only hope that you can accept Kal-El as you did in the past, that's all."
After the voice fell, Jor-El bowed deeply to everyone.
Clark, who is extremely emotional, showed an extremely sad expression in Jor-El's melancholy tone.
Although there had been many speculations and they had prepared themselves mentally.
But when Clark was sure that he was truly alone, he still felt sad beyond words.
On the side, Bruce was silent for a while, then raised his right hand and patted Clark on the shoulder.
Lex took a deep breath and nodded to Jor-El.
As for Donton, he casually took out a cigarette and lit it.
With the rising smoke, Donton took a breath of the Arctic air and continued.
"Don't worry, old Joe.
Although you damn want to take advantage of me, we will take good care of this kid Clark. "
"Hey!"
Listening to Downton's words, Clark reluctantly cheered up, and rarely raised his middle finger to Downton.
"Don, I'm not some kid!"
"Haha, it's all the same. Anyway, that's the thing. Are we friends?
Well, I'm not interested in technology or anything like that. I'll leave this spaceship to you and you can just take care of it yourself.
If I encounter any problems, I will fish for shrimps on the edge of the ice cliff near the glacier.
By the way, does anyone want to go fishing with me? "
He made a suggestion to everyone, but unfortunately there were too few responses.
Lex shook his head without interest, and Bruce focused on Krypton's technology.
As for Clark, he wanted to have a good chat with his biological father.
Whether it's the so-called history of the Al family, the past of Krypton, or other stories behind the fact that he was sent away from Krypton.
Now he just wants to know more about his original family, so where can he find time to fish with Downton?
Just like that, five minutes later, we were near the glacier cliffs at the edge of the Arctic ice continent.
Downton took the fishing rod he caught casually and sat there smoking silently.
Beside him, Bruce stayed with him in boredom.
Although Bruce didn't want to come at first, it was enough for him and Lex to sort out technology. The knowledge would always be shared after returning home.
Therefore, Bruce finally accompanied Downton to fish.
On the other hand, he took the bait from Downton unskillfully.
Bruce hung up the bait and swung the rod.
Looking at the floats rising and falling in the sea, Bruce sighed and said to Downton.
"In some ways, Clark's life experience is even more tumultuous than mine.
Behind me is the tragedy of a family, but behind him is the tragedy of an entire planet.
If nothing else, Clark may be depressed for a while. "
"cut……"
After listening to Bruce's words, Downton smiled and shook his head.
"Melancholy won't last long. Don't you still know who Clark is?
That guy is much brighter than this old yinbi like you, and he will be able to get out soon. "
Speaking of this, Downton suddenly raised his elbow and hit Bruce hard from the chest down.
"Hey!"
Bruce gritted his teeth angrily. Downton's strength was so great that he felt that the armor on his chest was about to burst.
Downton ignored Bruce's complaints and then said to him.
"An old Yinbi like you should have prepared a lot of things before coming, right?"
"Being prepared is just prudent, it doesn't mean it has to be a silver coin in your mouth, especially Lao Yinbi..."
Bruce responded angrily.
Seeing Bruce's unhappy look, Downton grinned, and then started fishing seriously.
They were fishing on a nearby glacier.
Several polar bears looked towards them curiously.
Especially after Downton put the fish in the freshly dug ice trough.
A few humble seals jumped from the sea onto the ice, crawled to Downton's side, and tried several times to fish for fish in the ice trough.
Just as Downton casually pushed away the anxious mouth of a seal, a family of polar bears in the distance tentatively approached the two of them.
While the polar bear parents were still nervously judging whether it was safe, the little polar bear had already escaped from the care of its parents, rushed all the way to Downton, and pounced directly on the seals.
A seal would not be polite to a little polar bear. He knocked the little polar bear over with a flick of his tail, and then patted his round belly while letting out a mean laugh.
Until the polar bear parents moved over worriedly and unhappily, and the father bear stared at the seal.
The seal then re-entered the freezing waters of the Arctic.
Seeing the seal running away, the polar bear parents focused their attention on Bruce and Downton.
They sniffed around Downton, and the female polar bear even stuck out her tongue and licked Downton's legs.
"Hey."
Downton smiled and grabbed the fur on the back of the female polar bear's neck and pushed her big head aside.
"You're pretty damn good at serving others, but I don't need that, haha~"
He told a joke, then used his mental strength to pull up a fish and threw it in front of the female polar bear.
Looking at the fish flapping randomly on the ice, the female polar bear was confused for a while, and then began to eat without mercy.
On the side, watching the interaction between Downton and the polar bear.
Bruce couldn't help but smile, and then frowned in confusion.
"They are very friendly to you, but they are unwilling to approach me. Why is that?
Are you safer than me in the eyes of animals? "
"Ha, it's not that I am safer than you, but you are too dark.
See, Bruce, not even a bear wants to come near you, an old bastard! "
Just as Downton was teasing, a figure suddenly flew out of the tunnel in the distance.
The next moment, Lex pulled Clark down to Bruce and Downton.
Their appearance frightened the polar bear family. The three polar bears were about to run away, but Downton grabbed their bodies so that they could not run away at all.
Downton picked up the bear cub and put it in his arms, asking Lex and the two of them.
"Are you done?"
"Looks like we're in trouble, Don!"
Faced with Downton's inquiry, Lex spoke to him solemnly.
"What trouble?"
Before Downton could reply, Bruce couldn't help but ask.
Lex shook his head at Bruce and smiled bitterly.
"Clarke's dad talked to us about a lot of stuff."
First of all, Krypton is a planet far beyond my imagination, and the technological level of the Kryptonians far exceeds the limits of what we once speculated.
One hundred thousand years ago, they already had the technological level to go beyond the planet, and started the bloody expansion of the so-called Great Expedition Era!
Be careful, this is the road to bloody expansion!
This process lasted for a full 100,000 years, and the Kryptonian civilization also reached its peak during these 100,000 years, and then fell to the bottom with the progress of civilization.
The spacecraft we discovered in the North Pole is also a product of the Great Expedition to Krypton. It came to Earth 18,000 years ago, and the isotopes of nearby glaciers I measured also confirmed this time. "
"So, Lex, this is not a report meeting, can you talk about the key points first.
The key is what makes you think you are in big trouble? "
Bruce interrupted Lex and stood up from his fishing spot.
Facing Bruce who became serious, Clark turned away sheepishly, while Lex continued to tell.
“The trouble is, there are thousands of Kryptonian ships like this ship in the North Pole parked on other planets in the star sea!
Kryptonians have realized that Krypton is doomed to destruction tens of thousands of years ago, and this spaceship in the North Pole is an extremely standard doomsday survival spacecraft!
This spaceship not only records the history and corresponding technology of Krypton, it even contains the Origin Room where Kryptonian babies were born!
In other words, although Jor-El emphasized that Krypton has been destroyed, in fact, if Clark is willing, he alone can rely on this spaceship in the North Pole to make thousands of people appear on the earth in just twenty years. A new Kryptonian!
By the way, the Origin Room is the nursery of Krypton. They only need to inject Kryptonian genes there to cultivate corresponding Kryptonian children.
Although Joelle particularly emphasized the importance of an artifact called the Kryptonian Life Code, after research, I found that even without the Life Code, the difficulty of creating Kryptonians in the Origin Room is definitely much lower than cloning!
so……"
At this point, Lex couldn't help but take a deep breath.
"So, even though Krypton has been destroyed, as long as there are still a few Kryptonians like Clark who were sent away in the galaxy, Krypton is destined not to perish, and Clark is by no means the last Kryptonian!
At the same time, every Kryptonian spacecraft staying on different planets has connections and records between them!
In other words, after we unearthed the spaceship, our Earth appeared on the list of all Kryptonian spacecraft together with the spacecraft parked here.
If one day, a Kryptonian fleet suddenly rushes into the solar system, shouting that it will make our planet theirs, then I will not be surprised at all! "
"Well……"
Hearing this, Bruce nodded clearly, and then asked Clark softly.
"Clark, this is good news for you, right?"
"How can this be good news? My people are not as peaceful as I thought!"
Clark responded to Bruce depressedly.
“The way my people occupy the planet is not like the British colonizing India, but like the way the Americans treat the Indians, and more like the way the Spanish treat the Aztec civilization!
If someone of my own race really comes looking for me, it means that war is coming. Do you think I will look forward to war! "
