Dream, this is a very magical scene, there is a saying that in the dream of oneself is truly free, will not be bound by thinking, modern science explains, dream is just a human biological circulatory system after dormancy, by the nerve weaving a normal physiological activity. In the occult, dreams are often associated with the future.

In short, one day it can be confirmed that when a person is trapped in a dream, he is at his most vulnerable.

"Well..."

Miss Louise had just had a horrible dream, she dreamed of a dragon rising from the flames, waving its claws to tear itself apart, she could even feel the scorching flames of the dragon, so real that her skin felt scorched... Wait, it doesn't seem like a dream.

So she opened her eyes, and she saw herself hanging in the air, and the energy grid below that was rapidly lighting up, and the blue energy emitted high temperatures, almost igniting her hair.

"No, let me down, don't!"

She began to struggle desperately, and the movement caught the attention of the three men next to her.

"I think we'd better keep her mouth shut forever! she's so noisy!"

Cyber stretched out his fingers, and a ball of flame formed an orange-red flaming serpent, wrapped around Miss Louise's body layer by layer, the vivid snake kiss hovering in front of her eyes, making her horror gradually turn into substance.

"No, no, Cyber, you just scared her. ”

Clark walked over, reached out and untied Miss Louise from the air, set her aside, patted her on the shoulder, and said:

"Listen, miss, I don't want to get in trouble, but I don't want you to interfere with our exploration, so you'd better keep your mouth shut, and we'll let you out when the time is right!"

Seeing this handsome man with black hair and black eyes in front of her, Louise Lynn suddenly had a feeling of unreality, and she turned her head to look behind Clark, where the flame-wrapped Cyber was looking at her with a dissatisfied expression, and beside Cyber, Captain America was carefully wiping the dust of the high-tech looking control panel.

"It's you, Cyber Hawke, Mutant Leader!"

Miss Louise is a brilliant media expert, and she rightfully recognizes Cyber, who snorts, "Since you know who I am, you'd better be quiet, chick, there are countless humans who have died at the hands of mutants, and I don't mind having you more." ”

Miss Reporter nodded immediately, as a well-known reporter, she once tried to infiltrate the mutant-controlled zone in Mexico and shoot some news materials that shocked the world, but she just walked into the city, and as soon as she took out her camera, she was invited to the office of the two-faced man, and after three coin flips, the lucky Miss Lynn was deported, and before her, there were already 4 reporters who were captured, and their fate was really not very good.

This was a very bold girl, and she was not frightened by her situation, on the contrary, she looked at Clark in front of her, and she whispered:

"Two years ago, in the southern Indian Ocean, my ship was shipwrecked, and you saved me, and afterwards you told the survivors that your name was "ghost", and I have been looking for you, I have been looking for you for 2 years, and it is impossible for ordinary people to lift a cruise ship! So you are a mutant, a transhuman, or an alien?"

"So you'd better stop this dangerous move now. ”

Clark's expression changed for a moment, and he looked at the reporter in front of him seriously: "Curiosity doesn't necessarily lead you to the mystery, sometimes, the more you know, the closer you are to danger..."

"But I'm already here!"

The reporter chick grabbed Clark's collar reluctantly, and the latter let go of her hand, thought for a moment, and whispered, "You're standing here!"

With that, he turned around with a headache and stood in front of the console, there were several unintelligible signs on it, and neither Cyber nor the captain pressed them, and when the situation was unknown, moving something around could cause very troublesome consequences, especially on an alien spaceship from 2 years ago.

"Can you read them?"

Cyber glanced at Louise who was curiously walking around, and asked in a low voice, Clark shook his head, "I grew up on Earth, man, even if it's my countryman's ship, I can't know their words out of thin air." ”

"Drop!"

A crisp voice rang out behind the crowd, and Cyber jerked back to see Louise take a few steps back in horror, and on the wall in front of her, a decorative gem was glittering.

"What did you do?"

Steve asked aloud, and Miss Reporter replied similarly, "No, I just ran into it!"

"Buzz"

The dazzling blue light swayed in front of everyone's eyes, like the moonlight scattered in the night, which instantly illuminated the dim central cabin, and then like a blue light, suspended in front of everyone's eyes, Cyber moved his hands, demonic claws appeared on the surface of his body, and the captain held the shield in his hand, subconsciously blocking everyone, they were facing the unknown, but Clark squinted at the light, and after a moment, he shook his head at his companion:

"There's no malice in this thing... I can feel it, it's calling..."

As he spoke, he stretched out his finger and lightly tapped it on the ball of light suspended in front of him, and the ball of light danced rapidly in front of them, like a flowing liquid, forming a figure suspended in the air, and then slowly condensed, revealing a human body that was 7 points similar to Clark, but his short hair and beard were already gray.

He wears a special robe that reminds Cyber of the mages of Kama Taj.

"Oh... 33 years later, you're finally here, Carl..."

The figure landed lightly on the ground, lifelike, almost like a living person, but Cyber swung a fiery serpent that easily pierced his body, and it was clear that it was just a projection.

"Karl, who is that?"

Steve asked in a low voice, and when he realized that there was no danger, he put away his shield and looked at Cyber, who pointed to Clark who was stunned, "That's him, that's his alien name." ”

The Devilish Lord looked up, he looked at the projection in front of him, which was no different from a human, and he asked in a low voice, "How do you speak English?

"Oh, this athletic and battle-hardened human warrior, don't you like this language?"

The projection smiled softly, and he changed his language: "So what? I have detected 17 languages in your consciousness, and you seem to be in love with this..."

"Okay! I won't ask!"

Listening to this alien projection speaking standard Mandarin, not to mention how weird it is, Cyber snorted and took a step back, the current time, should be given to Clark, or... Cal.

"Who are you?"

Clark stepped forward, and the person in front of him made him feel like he was thinking through his blood, and he couldn't help but ask, "Are you my father?"

The projection was silent, and after a moment, he nodded:

"I am... Me neither. ”

"As you can see, I'm just a projection of Joe Al's consciousness that accompanied you into this planet, watching you grow up over a long period of time, watching you grow up step by step..."

He reached out to touch Clark's cheek, but just as he was about to make contact, he suddenly withdrew his hand, he put his hands behind his back, and whispered, "You are lucky, Carl, in this new world, you have met adoptive parents who love you very much, they deserve to be called parents more than me and Leila, they have done their duty that we have not been able to do, and although their thoughts have left you at a loss, I am still grateful to them..."

"I don't want to hear that!"

Clark rudely interrupted the projection, he clenched his fists, and he asked loudly, "Why did you leave me alone in this world!

"Because..."

Joe's consciousness projection stretched out his hand, and the silver metal liquid formed a vivid picture behind him, it was the fluttering star track, that was the surging destruction, in the interpretation of the silver-white metal, a planet began to annihilate from the very core, and finally the scene of the energy losing control and exploding seemed so thrilling:

"Because our world has been destroyed, Karl, Kryptonian once had a great civilization, but in the end history has proved that we are nothing more than a failure in the evolutionary branch, therefore, your mother and I used the traditional way to give birth to you, so that you can transcend Krypton's terrible civilization system, we want you to truly have your destiny!"

The projection whispered:

"We don't want to destroy with you, so, we give you the best gift... Carl, we give you a new world of freedom. ”

This cruelest truth silenced everyone present, Clark searched for 33 years, and finally found the truth, but this really wants to make people desperate, outside of Earth, his civilization has been extinct, and from now on, no matter what world he is, he will only be alone.

There is no greater loneliness than this.

"That's not right!"

Cyber opened his mouth and said: "Since you can send Clark as a baby, it means that your interstellar travel technology is fully mature, and it stands to reason that you can also send yourself to build an ark before the planet is destroyed... Why didn't you do that?"

"You're asking the real point... Earthlings like no other. ”

The projection glanced at Cyber and whispered, "Because, we can't do that... The civilization of Krypton has decayed, and even if it is sent to us, it still can't change the future of that world, because... Because everyone in that society is set up before they are born, the worker, the soldier, the leader, is like a super-large ant colony, with a clear division of labor, and the social class is solidified to a degree that you can't imagine... We don't even know what the difference is between us and those robots. ”

"Such a civilization has been rotten from the roots, when I realized this, I never had the luxury of using the method of immigration to save Krypton, only the real old era is destroyed, the new era, the new civilization of Krypton will come... And all that is with you, my son. ”

He looked at Clark, and he reached out and placed his illusory palm on Clark's shoulder:

"You carry all the genes of all life forms on Krypton, in every cell of yours, in every gene, as long as you can live in this world and continue your bloodline, eventually... The entire Kryptonian civilization will be truly reborn, combined with the civilization of Earth, and you will bring a truly new era, my child..."

"You are the future and last hope of Krypton!"

Clark was silent, he didn't know how to face this cruel truth, and Miss Louise, who was listening to the story on the side, shouted indignantly:

"It's too much!"

"Huh?"

The eyes of all present fell on Miss Louise, who was undaunted, and pointed to Clark and said:

"This is too much! You just imposed the hope of a civilization on him, you didn't even ask him if he wanted to, he is your son, not your tool for the revival of that damn civilization! You say you put the key of your destiny in his hands, but you don't give him the right to choose at all!"

"Perhaps. ”

Joe's apparition doesn't refute anything, coming from a highly hierarchical civilization like Krypton, a big man like him doesn't need to explain anything to the commoners, and if according to Kryptonian tradition, Clark was born with a difficult mission, and from this point of view, Joe El has done nothing wrong.

Now, the consciousness of the dead chief scientist looked at his son, he sighed, and he whispered:

"Kryptonians aren't good at expressing feelings, Carl, and we don't talk about love, but trust me, your mother and I love you no less than anyone else, but now is not the time to say that... Look back, the vanguard of the exiles from the ghostly space has arrived. ”

Cyber turned around, and through the porthole with a layer of frost, he saw the two Kryptonian fighters that had fallen from the sky, and the six heavily armed soldiers who had come out of the planes.

"Zod is a dangerous opponent, Carl, I know what he wants, I don't know if you're ready, but for now, protect yourself, and if you can, protect the world. ”

"Krypton will be reborn... But not in his devastating way!"
