When the Super British Ruled the Earth[British and American]
Chapter 42 042
When Celia entered Superman's 'treasure room', she was almost stunned by the scene in front of her.
As one of the most ambitious strategists in the universe, the various weapons and technologies on Thanos' huge spaceship are already very dazzling. Unexpectedly, compared to this, it is just a drop of water in the ocean.The space of this room seems a bit too strangely wide and boundless, like a pocket in a different dimension.
Silia saw countless weapons on display. They had different shapes, colors and uses, and they could even be seen from different materials and styles as technologies belonging to civilizations of different planets.The variety is amazing.But this is just the beginning.
She walked by all kinds of shelves, as if she was in a shrunken cultural map of the universe. The variety kept her eyes wide open and she held her breath.
"So many things..." she murmured, "It's enough to form a huge army, and with the Infinity Stone in your hands, you can obviously flatten other galaxies at will."
Superman turned his head and stared quietly at Celia.
"In this world, not only conquest and destruction are meaningful." He said, "Protecting a planet with heart is also a good pursuit."
He turned his head and continued to walk forward. Celia put her hands behind her back and followed Clark with her head up.
"Even if everyone on this planet fears you and never appreciates you?" Before Superman could answer, Celia said, "Oh... I remember, you don't care."
"Everyone's not afraid of me now," Clark said. "You're not afraid of me, are you?"
"I'm not human."
Superman wasn't bothered either.They continued to move forward, and finally stopped at the end of the long road. Celia saw a thick and ancient book floating in midair.Clark stepped forward, his fingers lightly slid across the cover, the cover of this old book shone with Superman's fingerprints, and then opened automatically - from the opened pages, the three-dimensional projection enveloped the two people, Like reality gems, they seem to have stood on the square of Krypton.
"This is Krypton, the Krypton before it was destroyed." Clark's eyes gradually became darker, "My biological parents used to live here. If there is no accident, I should grow up here. And your elders, I also stepped on the land of Krypton...but it has disappeared, and there will be no third person remembering this planet except us who are alive."
In fact, to be precise, Clark is the only one who really misses Krypton.Xilia couldn't feel any nostalgia for her hometown that had just appeared for a day. After all, missing her hometown was completely different from the ideas she had accepted before.
For the first time, Celia visualizes what it is like to miss one's home that doesn't exist.The former Gamora also missed her planet, but she turned that yearning into hatred and motivation.But Clark's thoughts are calm and silent, like the surface of a lake in the dark night, without any waves.
It's really interesting that what she cares least about is blood and where she came from, but it's Clark who misses it.This was completely different from her deep-rooted thoughts, but Xilia was not as dismissive as she imagined. She actually felt that it was quite interesting to think about something like this.Immediately afterwards, Clark explained to her some customs and historical stories about Krypton.In fact, he has never been there himself. All his things about Krypton come from his father's projection and this book that records the history of various civilizations.
After the introduction about Krypton came to an end, Clark looked at Celia.
"Maybe I can find out where the other half of your bloodline comes from here." He said, "You are half Kryptonian, and it is really rare that you can use spells."
"I don't think it's necessary."
"Why?" Clark hoped that Celia would find the root of her birth. "Actually, this is a good thing. If you can find it, maybe I can go back with you to take a look in the future."
Celia was silent for a while, and she recalled the scenes immersed in her dreams before.
"Actually... Although my father never mentioned my birth, I always seem to have a little impression. I was picked up by him in the Star Broken Stones." Xilia said, "The other half of my blood was born Either the planet has been destroyed, or I was abandoned in space. In any case, I don’t seem to have the need to understand there.”
Clark didn't speak, and after a while, he said, "That's fine, this will save you trouble."
The two continued to visit here, as if this room was a different space, so big that it had no end.
"You can take something. Weapons, technology, gems...all are fine." Superman said, "See if there is anything you like?"
"The things in here are very precious, but I don't seem to need any of them." Xilia said, "It's better to let them all stay with you, it's safer."
Clark frowned slightly.
"There are so many things, don't you even have one thing you like?"
Celia shook her head.
"I don't need to take it," she insisted.
But Superman didn't seem to intend to leave like this. He looked around, took out a star-like necklace from the Krypton area, and handed it to Silia.
Celia took it, and she saw that the pattern of the necklace was exactly the same as the one on Superman's chest.
"Is this the chain of your family?"
"Don't forget, on Krypton, it also represents hope." Clark said, "Take it, even if you can't have feelings for your home planet, you should wear something on your body, which means you also have a purpose. "
Although Celia didn't want anything, she didn't object. Since Clark insisted on letting her take it, she wouldn't refuse.
"okay, thank you."
When the two came out of the treasure room, Celia was still looking around at the Fortress of Solitude without thinking much, but Superman seemed to be thinking.
"Do you want to spend the night here?" Clark said, "I was in a hurry last time, this time you can go shopping by yourself."
Celia hesitated.It's not that she doesn't want to live, but... why does the Fortress of Solitude give her the impression that there is no place to rest at all, except for hiding weapons and only Superman's observation room?
"Is there a bedroom here?"
The corner of Superman's mouth moved, and he motioned for Celia to follow.It's like an ant's nest here, extending in all directions. Only then did Celia realize that there is more than one floor here.She followed Clark to the second floor, and Clark pushed open a door. Inside was a large room with arc-shaped glass on one side. There were very few things in such a large room. There was only a huge double bed next to it. There was a potted plant on the ground, but it was gone.
There are more things in the prison cells under the complex base than in this room.
Clark, who seemed to realize this himself, cleared his throat.
"It's a little short," he said.
"It can be said that there is nothing at all." Xilia broke the stage.
"But the bed is comfortable," Superman insisted.
"Do you usually eat this pot of grass?" Celia asked.
The scene fell into embarrassment for a while.
"Are you hungry?" Clark changed the subject, "I can ask the robot to get you something to eat."
"I don't want to eat frozen food." Celia said, "Where is Bruce's home? Will the housekeeper treat us?"
Jarvis is a big liar.Clark secretly slandered, Gotham is so close to New York, which way should it go with the North Pole?But Superman couldn't pick it up. Although Jarvis threw the mess to him, it helped anyway.
"You can have a cup of coffee first. The coffee is not instant. It's the stock that Bruce put on me before." Clark said, "The quality should be similar to what Tony gave you."
"What about the staple food?" Xilia opened her eyes wide, "Could it be that this pot of grass is my dinner tonight?"
"I'll find a way for you." Clark was a little helpless, "You can bask in the sun now, and you won't be hungry after a while."
Celia: ...
How did she feel that she was cheated? ? ?There is a feeling of being dragged into a wilderness prison where you have bought a luxury seven-day tour, but you are not allowed to leave without paying the money.
Forget it, the best thing to do is to retreat. Fortunately, Jarvis prepared dry food for her.
"Where's the coffee?" Celia asked eagerly.
Just in time, the round little robot hummed and flapped its little wings and brought a cup of coffee.
"You eat your biscuit first," Clark said.
Then, he turned and left.
Celia didn't know what he was going to do. After Superman and the little robot left, the entire second floor was so empty that there was no sound at all, only the wind and snow outside the circular window knocked on the window. Sky and snow, nothing.
Celia looked out the window in a daze while eating biscuits, which was a necessary skill for her.There used to be no entertainment facilities on the spaceship except for books and interstellar poker. When Xilia was free, she was in a daze and could sit like this for a long time.
After an unknown amount of time, Celia heard footsteps in the corridor, and Clark came back.
Not to mention comparing with aliens, Celia is much thinner than those earth girls of her age.She was sitting on such a big bed, in such a spacious room, her figure was so pitifully small, like a puppy placed on a big carpet, she would step on it accidentally.
Seeing her in a daze, Superman walked over slowly.
"Do you...do you think this place is boring?" He asked in a low voice.
Celia turned her head, and she raised her chin to look at him.
"It won't be boring," she said. "It's a lot like being on a spaceship, except the scenery outside won't move."
"Is Star Trek fun?" Clark folded his arms around his chest and asked following her words.
"It feels the same as here, it's nothing more than one galaxy after another." Celia said, "Most of the time the universe is still pretty, but sometimes the spacecraft will go forward in a large darkness for several months, and I will think , maybe the universe itself is dark, but our eyes are covered with a layer of color on it, and we can see the colorful stars and nebulae."
Clark walked over slowly and sat down beside her.The bed was flat when Celia sat on it.As soon as Superman sat down, it turned out that the mattress was soft and elastic, and it was pressed down a few centimeters.Celia's body was tilted, and she suddenly smelled something.
"What's that?" Celia immediately became energetic, and she exclaimed, "That's not the taste of frozen food!"
The corner of Superman's mouth twitched, and several small robots flew over with dinner plates. Celia saw that the food inside was very simple, which she had never seen before.
"This is called a sandwich, this is bacon, this is smoked sausage, fried eggs, and this is called cereal milk." Clark lowered his head and pointed to Celia one by one, "The things you ate before do not represent the lives of ordinary people on Earth. , and this is what most Americans really eat.”
Celia looked at it, and she picked up the slice of bread on top of the sandwich, and Superman simply picked up the whole sandwich and handed it to her.
"It's eaten whole," he said. "You can try smoked sausage, and there are a lot of ranches in Kansas that have good poultry in captivity."
"Is that so?" Celia picked up the sandwich and took a bite, then started chewing again.She puffed her cheeks and looked at Superman, "Is this made by a robot? What state does the robot come from?"
The corner of Clark's mouth ticked, but he didn't speak.
Celia eats a sandwich and smoked sausage while Superman sits and watches.
Outside the circular window, the North Pole began to blow piercing snow again, covering the Fortress of Solitude.It seemed that the whole world was so cold and white with no end in sight, and there were only the two of them in the center of the planet.
