Superman of the American Comics - Chapter 447
While Luke was having a secret room conversation with krypton’s female commander, flora.
Back in metropolis, my little cousin Clark had a quarrel with his agent lex.
“The godfather said, Zod can’t hurt your parents. He’s just a verbal threat.”
Lex rubbed his temples and persuaded.
“Who can guarantee that he will not do so?”
Clark paced back and forth.
Acting anxious.
He hasn’t talked about his girlfriend yet.
So for Superman.
The most important thing on earth is adoptive parents.
At the thought that they fell into the hands of general Zod, they were likely to be abused or beaten.
Clark felt restless and difficult to calm down.
“You should trust the godfather’s judgment.”
Lex curled his lips, and he had a lot of things on his hands.
About the amazing battle a few hours ago.
The White House has called several times, and the Pentagon has sent troops to surround the water company’s building.
The top of the federal government, they can’t wait to meet superman and get a definite answer.
Giant spacecraft suspended in near lunar orbit, kryptonians hitting planes with their bare hands
These are like time bombs that will detonate at any time.
No one would like to live in a room full of minefields.
“Of course I believe in my cousin! But… I’m more afraid of accidents.”
Clark scratched his head like a severe insomniac.
Obviously sleepy, but because the work is not finished, I can’t lie down.
He was waiting for Luke’s action, but two hours later, his big cousin still had no news.
“What are you going to do?”
Lex’s eyes flashed as if to say something, but finally swallowed it back.
“Take the initiative to contact Zod to confirm the safety of my family!”
Clark seemed determined. He looked at lex and begged, “I need your help, Lex!”
“Well, what should I do, or what do you want me to do?”
Lex thought for a moment and asked helplessly.
“Send a message to Zod’s ship.”
Clark looked at the shadow reflected on the French window and said in a deep voice.
……
……
Twenty minutes later, Clark stood quietly on the open and desolate yellow sand Gobi,
Lex’s message soon received a response from general Zod.
The latter asked Clark to board the ship and have a face-to-face conversation.
It sounds very dangerous. It’s not a wise decision to go into a tiger’s den alone.
But Superman, who defeated the krypton warrior, agreed without thinking.
He is still a seventeen year old boy, far from mature and calm.
In the distant sky, an aircraft flew over the low altitude at a very fast speed, setting off violent dust.
Clark narrowed his eyes and the UFO that landed looked like a beetle.
All black, bionic structure.
There is a wild atmosphere in the elegance, which has a completely different design style from the earth civilization.
The hatch opened, the suspension ladder was lowered, and two krypton warriors in black armor came out.
One of them, showing his face, opened his mouth and said, “Carl Al, I’m Elton the explorer. I say hello to you on behalf of general Zod.”
“Are you alone?”
Clark nodded. His cousin was interrogating the two krypton prisoners, and lex was of no use.
He felt he could solve the problem alone.
The Explorer Elton said nothing more.
He took a deep look at Clark and then took him into the aircraft.
He did not ask the commander who had been captured alive, foola, or the whereabouts of another krypton warrior.
The birth code is the top priority, and other things can be put back.
All kryptonians loyal to general Zod were confidants who had followed each other in an Iron-blooded coup and led the rebels in an attempt to overthrow krypton’s decadent rule.
After the failure, they were exiled to the phantom space together and spent endless darkness.
It was not until krypton was destroyed that it was liberated.
When they woke up from the sleeping cabin, they saw the wreckage of krypton.
The cold meteorite belt floats in the void, and the home that used to depend on for survival is no longer there.
The huge blow discouraged everyone. General Zod inspired everyone’s fighting spirit and led them to transform the light speed propulsion engine and get out of the dead area.
“General Zod is looking forward to this meeting.”
Elton looked at young Clark and whispered.
The former homeland has become a death, and the brilliant civilization has become dust.
In the vast and endless dark universe, there are few people with krypton blood.
Boom!
The beetle aircraft suddenly soared into the sky and pulled into a fuzzy shadow.
Quickly break through the atmosphere and rush out of the blue planet.
“Here we are.”
Eaton loosened his seat belt, the aircraft slowed down and docked with the giant spacecraft.
Along the lower space, enter the wide cabin.
Clark followed in the footsteps of the Explorer Elton to bring the open bridge.
Strong figure in black armor, standing alone on the semicircular overlooking platform.
At his feet, there are huge celestial bodies emitting beautiful vitality.
“This is general Zod, our leader.”
Said the Explorer Elton with respect.
“So strong…”
Clark looked at each other, in his perception.
General Zod breathed a terrible smell, like a silent active volcano, which was palpitating.
“What are you going to talk about? Threatening me with my family or besieging me? Kidnapping can be used. The means are really mean!”
Restrain distractions, Clark asked coldly.
“Presumptuous! Dare to disrespect the general!”
The krypton soldiers around were angry and shouted in unison.
In their hearts, general Zod is a great leader who leads him to rebuild his homeland, which can never be despised by anyone.
“Eaton, let’s forgive Carl for his rudeness. He’s not familiar with krypton’s etiquette.”
General Zod stopped everyone’s angry reprimand and said in a deep and powerful voice: “we have ushered in a new compatriot, which is worth celebrating. Don’t have useless quarrels.”
Clark has no expression. His super vision is in the ship.
It seems to be severely restricted and unable to penetrate the cabin walls at all.
“I…”
Clark was about to say something, but his body suddenly gushed out a very strong sense of discomfort.
The sound heard became noisy, like a sharp noise, stimulating the eardrum.
The sight of the eyes gradually blurred, and the light became a hazy scene.
A feeling of weakness arises spontaneously and fills the strong body.
“I… feel a little uncomfortable.”
Clark said with difficulty, as if drained of his strength.
Just like facing kryptonite radiation, he swayed, stood unsteadily, and fell to the ground.
Watching the son of his old friend kneel down in front of him with a trace of blood on his lips, Zod couldn’t help smiling sarcastically: “it took you a long time to adapt to the environment of the earth, but now you can’t accept your mother planet.”
“Carl, if you want to get rid of this pain, you can only rely on your own will and strength, and no one can help you.”
Clark could not hear Zod’s voice at all. The strange atmospheric environment almost suffocated him.
The feeling of weakness surged like a tide. Superman fell on the cold metal ground, and his faint consciousness slowly sank into the darkness.
…………
When Clark opened his eyes again, he found himself on a farm in Kansas.
This is where he grew up. Everything is so familiar.
“Hello, Carl, maybe you prefer me to call you Clark.”
Zod’s voice startled the confused Clark.
He got up slowly and looked around at the scene.
Confirm that this is a farm in Kansas, a warm family in my memory.
“I was the military leader of krypton, and your father was the chief scientist of our planet. He was very excellent and had an extraordinary vision.”
“The only thing we agree on is that krypton is about to be destroyed.”
“At that time, I tried to stop all this and keep the fire of krypton civilization. The reward was that I and my subordinates were exiled to the phantom area – the dead place in the universe!”
Zod faced his old son as if he saw Joe al again.
The man who, like him, tried to defend krypton.
But in the end, they each chose a different path.
“The destruction of krypton set me free again. We should have drifted in the wreckage of the planet until death, but we are not willing to do so!”
Zod sighed.
He and his men were in despair.
But Rao, the gods finally cared for krypton and let them survive.
“How did you find the earth?”
Clark asked, frowning.
He didn’t understand how Zod and his party came to earth.
There is no definite coordinate position between the vast universe.
To find this blue planet is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
“We transformed the aircraft propeller into the speed of light. Your father did a similar transformation to send you to the earth.”
“The tools that once imprisoned us, but finally saved us, I have to say, it’s really fate.”
Zod continued with a complicated look in his eyes.
“We searched the outposts of the old colonial era for signs of life, but we found nothing.”
“They were abandoned after they lost contact with krypton. We took all the resources we could use, including armor, weapons and world engines… It was difficult for 33 years until a distress signal was detected not long ago.”
“You brought us here, Carl.”
General Zod watched Clark with eager eyes, just as a traveler in the night saw the light of a lamp.
“Now you have the ability to save our race. All unborn children on Krypton have their genetic genes written in the civil file, which is the ‘fertility code’.”
“Your father stole it and hid it on you.”
Clark was confused. He didn’t know his true identity at all.
So, subconsciously asked, “why did my father steal the birth code?”
“Because in this way, krypton can be reborn on earth!”
Zod’s eyes were filled with enthusiasm. He waved and a giant fell from the sky.
Three huge metal supports stand on the earth, with a dazzling column of energy gushing from the center.
The earth’s surface set off a torrent of smoke and dust in the violent vibration, destroying Clark’s familiar farm house!
Superman who witnessed this scene seemed to understand something.
“Tell me, Carl, where is the fertility code?”
Zod snapped in a doomsday scene.
“If krypton is reborn, what will happen to the earth?”
Clark asked back.
“The rebirth of civilization always needs to be based on destruction. Even your father knows that.”
Zod’s voice was cold.
He’s a Kryptonian.
Of course, I don’t care about the life and death of the earth.
For general Zod, rebuilding his home is the only hope in his life, and no one can stop his progress.
“No, Zod, I won’t help you.”
Clark shook his head and refused.
He saw the devastation around him.
If krypton is really reborn, the price must be all life on earth.
“Then who will you help?”
The scene changed again. Endless skeletons covered the earth and gradually pulled Clara down.
Zod looked down at his old son.
This dream is over, and he has got the answer from each other’s mouth.
“Your father is willing to give his life for honor, Carl.”
When Clark opened his eyes again, he found himself locked on a metal table.
Zod looked at him lightly, with a trace of regret in his tone.
“I said, my name is kakarot. I don’t know you at all.”
Clark corrected.
He’s not a Kryptonian.
“Whoever you are, hand over the birth code! Otherwise you will pay the price!”
Zod said coldly.
From his birth, he was set with a genetic template to protect krypton.
For this great goal, everything else can be sacrificed.
With a deep look at Clark, Zod turned and left.
He knows very well what he cares most about the emotional troubled character like Carl.
So don’t worry, the other party won’t give in.
When you get the life code, you can take the first step in rebuilding your home.
Krypton will be reborn on this blue planet. Zod walked slowly to the open Observatory, filled with longing for the future.
“Does he agree to cooperate?”
The Explorer Elton went behind general Zod.
In the eyes of kryptonians, the earth civilization is backward and weak, and it is not difficult to conquer it.
But the key is how to revive the broken and extinct krypton civilization!
Zod and his party thought they were the only krypton blood in the universe.
But fate gave them a great surprise.
Joe al’s son summoned the stars and brought them to the blue planet.
The most fortunate thing is that the fertility code in charge of krypton gene coding is also in each other’s hands.
All this seemed to be doomed, which made Zod see hope again.
Rebuild krypton!
“Carl, like his father, always couldn’t see the truth.”
“The child refused me. He has too many feelings for people on earth and can’t recognize where he should stand.”
Zod said with his hands behind his back and a frown.
Clark’s lack of cooperation was expected.
For the young and astringent son of an old friend, he is very tolerant and chooses to give the other party more time to seriously consider.
“What should we do?”
Inquired the explorer, Elton.
“Carl needs to realize that we are his compatriots. Those people on earth will only regard him as an alien!”
Zod sneered. He had a general understanding of Superman’s situation through information on the Internet.
“As for the birth code, he will obediently give it to me. He cares too much about the lives of those people on earth. This is a fatal weakness.”
The Explorer Elton understood that the human couple could be used as a threat when necessary.
General Zod didn’t know because he disdained such a despicable means.
But Clark is so stubborn that he would rather turn his back on his compatriots than protect the earth.
In the eyes of Zod, who regarded krypton and honor as extremely important, it was a foolish act!
“I see.”
The Explorer Elton nodded and then asked, “nafora, they…”
“Rebuilding krypton is the first priority. Even if they die, they deserve their death!”
Zod waved his hand and said coldly.
The Explorer Elton sighed to himself and left the overlooking platform.
Zod stood alone on the bridge, staring at the earth.
His desperate heart was finally calm.
The mother star I vowed to protect was broken and destroyed in front of me.
This almost made Zod lose hope of living.
The only mission and responsibility in life were thus erased. The krypton general who escaped from the phantom area wandered like a ghost in the Dark Universe.
“Huh?”
Suddenly, a light burst into Zod’s sight.
The energy breath similar to the astronomical wave appeared in his perception.
Like a deep-sea monster, it was suddenly invaded.
Zod suddenly became alert, his muscles tightened and entered a state of battle.
Did the earthlings launch nuclear weapons?
Zod thought so.
It is the most powerful military weapon known to earth civilization and the only thing that can kill krypton.
Boom——
The dazzling light quickly broke through the atmosphere, like a fleeting golden lightning.
In an instant before the krypton ship.
This time, Zod finally saw the true face of the dazzling light——
The dark red cloak fluttered before his eyes.
