Chapter 367: A Mysterious Visitor
Speaking of the Kryptonians, Clark immediately sat up.
The rolling Adam's apple shows that Clark is very nervous right now.
He knew what General Zod and his men had done to Earth.
But at the same time, those people were also one of Clark's few remaining kinds.
So, if possible, Clark hopes that the outcome of this discussion of Kryptonians will be more moderate.
However, among the people present, although most of them were waiting for Depp's statement.
But there was still one person who held a completely different view than Clark.
He was Lex Luthor, Clark's best friend.
Without waiting for Depp to speak, Lex said: "I suggest that these Kryptonians be executed as soon as possible, of course, before they are executed, some necessary research can be done on their bodies. ”
Necessary research.
Depp said in his heart, it's really you, Lai Bald!
When Clark heard this, he immediately couldn't sit still, he controlled his laryngeal muscles, changed his voice and said: "I don't agree with this plan, although they have made great mistakes, but I don't think we should declare their life and death so arbitrarily." ”
"Arbitrary? Don't you think your words are a little ridiculous? Lex didn't notice that the person who refuted him was Clark, he took out a report printed on A4 paper, threw it to Clark and said: "This is the report on the Metropolitan in this incident, which records in detail the economic losses and deaths caused by this incident, please read the statistics aloud." ”
Clark picked up the file, looked at it, his hand clenched a lot involuntarily, and said: "In this attack on the Kryptonians, at least 13,000 people were killed and more than 50 billion dollars in damage. ”
As he read it, Clark's hands trembled involuntarily.
Perhaps the loss of economy will not make the future god of the world feel much fluctuation in his heart, but 13,000 lives make Clark's heart ache as if it has been shattered.
Clarke's tears flowed uncontrollably, slipping from under his mask, wetting the report.
"After reading this, do you still want to intercede for them, Superman? Or the Kryptonians hidden among us! Lex said mercilessly.
In fact, Lex has long judged through live broadcasts and surveillance videos that the Superman who guards the Metropolis is quite similar to the Kryptonians who attacked the Earth.
And in this meeting, as soon as he saw Superman also present, Lex was ready to question.
Lex's questioning made Clark dumbfounded.
Under the mask, Clark's face turned red, he put the file on the table, and said: "I'm actually okay, I'm really like them, I'm a Kryptonite, but I've been growing up on Earth since I was a child, I just want to protect humans and protect this planet!" ”
Hearing this, Lex sneered, and then said loudly: "Then kill all those guys who want to destroy this planet." Strangling the people who caused the crisis is the best way to protect the planet and people! ”
"Coco."
Clark didn't know how to deal with Lex's slap for a while, and his face under the mask was like a red apple.
With his fists clenched, Clark's air around him began to spin involuntarily, blowing directly the documents on the table into the air, and then tearing them to shreds.
Looking at the confetti flying in front of him like snowflakes, Clark woke up suddenly, and the air around him stopped spinning.
Like butterflies, the confetti swirled and slowly fell, landing on the long table and the floor.
Beneath the mask, Clark pursed his lips, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a while, Clark slowly raised his head and looked in Depp's direction.
Depp looked at the silent Clark and the domineering Lex, he knew that Clark was scared now, he was afraid, he was afraid that after that, everyone would unify their voices and choose to kill those Kryptonians.
And from Clark's gaze to himself, Depp saw the supplication.
Seeing this, Depp knocked lightly on the table, attracting everyone's attention.
After clearing his throat, Depp said: "I think there is nothing wrong with what Clark and Lex said, but although they have different positions." And the purpose of the existence of the Owl Court at this time is to reconcile all this and find an option that is acceptable to everyone. ”
Depp stood up, he took the lead to Clark's side, and said: "First of all, I agree with Clark's suggestion, and I don't think that killing these Kryptonians now is the best way to deal with it. ”
"But they almost ruined the world!"
Lex said angrily, he didn't understand why Depp would approve of letting those invaders go.
Depp looked at the indignant Lex in front of him and smiled secretly.
This extremely intelligent young man is worthy of being the backbone of the earth in various major events in the future.
And this supervillain is different from superheroes like Superman and Batman, for him, as long as he can protect the earth, he doesn't mind if he will kill all the enemies.
To be honest, compared to Clark and Batman's life-and-death temperament, Depp prefers supervillains and antiheroes such as Lex.
Eliminate the threat once and for all to prevent future troubles.
But now, because of the system, Depp has to change his choice and strategy, and let General Zod and his men go.
Of course, Depp won't let them go so easily.
In fact, in Depp's plan, what awaits Zode and others is a torment that is more devastating than death.
However, in the eyes of Zode and others, these tortures may be a godsend.
Depp put his index finger in front of his mouth and made a "shh
Subsequently, Depp said: "It's better to have them compensate for the damage they did than to kill these guys." Like asking them to help us rebuild the city, having them share cutting-edge technology about Krypton, and as Lex just said, studying their bodies and mastering the sources of those extraordinary powers. ”
Hearing this, Lex sneered.
This genius, who can be called the smartest earthling in the DC universe, will not be easily subdued because of his identity as the leader of the Depp Owl Court.
He chattered, "Sir, you don't think that those Kryptonians will obediently follow your advice and help us rebuild the city, share technology and even become our guinea pigs, right?" ”
"Those vicious creatures will only break through the cage without us knowing, and then let the fire of destruction sweep through our world again!"
"As far as I know, their purpose is to rebuild Krypton, which is why they want to transform the Earth into a new Krypton."
"And it seems that one of the necessary conditions for rebuilding Krypton is the Kryptonian named Karl El."
"Hiss~ I seem to have discovered something terrible!" Lex looked at Clark and said, "Maybe. Our dear Superman is Carl El, right? ”
Lex's reasoning, although he didn't find out that Superman was Clark, still shocked everyone present.
Although they have long known that Superman is the Carl El that Zod was looking for when he first invaded, they even knew that Superman was the earthling Clark Kent.
But almost all of this was told to them by Depp on his own initiative!
But now, Lex had deduced all of this based on all the well-known information.
Even Bruce was horrified.
Bruce thought in his heart that when he returned, he would have to look up the information about this guy and make a plan for dealing with it in the future.
A man of extreme intelligence and deep pockets may be even more dangerous than Superman in the future!
If Depp could hear what Bruce was thinking, he would definitely complain about that sentence mercilessly.
"In that case, Bruce, I'd suggest you put yourself in your plan of response, lest you, who are so rich and clever, make any fuss in the future."
Just as everyone looked at Lex in shock, Depp walked up behind Lex and said, "You're right, your reasoning is perfect, and I know why General Zod is looking for Carl Air. ”
"You know?" Lex asked incredulously.
"Of course, I already knew." Depp put his hand on Lex's left shoulder and said, "Because in the genes of Carl El, the key to the continuation of the Kryptonian civilization exists. Kryptonian Secret Archive. This is what contains all the Kryptonite genes, and it is what Zod must find if he wants to rebuild Krypton. Otherwise, only with the people of Zod and Usa, the Year of the Monkey and the Horse Moon will be able to reproduce a population. ”
When Lex heard this, his face suddenly realized, but he didn't ask Depp why he knew this, after all, everyone has their own secrets.
On the contrary, Lex is more concerned with other things: "But even so, what can you do when you know? The problem now is that we can't control the Kryptonians for our use. ”
"Tut-tut." Depp shook his head and thought to himself, stupid Lex, you have no idea how rich my inventory is!
"It's actually very easy to control those Kryptonians." "As long as we can help them rebuild Krypton, that's enough," Depp said. ”
"Rebuild Krypton?" When Lex heard this, his eyes suddenly widened, and he immediately understood something, and said, "What do you mean that you have all the conditions to rebuild Krypton?" ”
This time, Depp nodded, then put his hand into his arms and took out the Kryptonian Secret Archive he had obtained earlier from the system space.
The blue of the starry sky echoes the gold of quicksand, floating in the air like a ball of fluid light that keeps flickering.
Even the well-informed Lex couldn't help but widen his eyes, he had never seen such a beautiful thing after seeing countless precious gems in the world.
The Secret Codex, which contains all the Kryptonian genes, attracts everyone's attention like one of the most exquisite and luxurious works of art in the world.
"This is the Kryptonian Secret Codex?"
Lex asked.
Depp nodded and said, "That's right, this is the Kryptonian Secret Archive that Zod and they have been looking for." I used this as a bargaining chip to let them rebuild the city for us, and in the meantime, I found them a planet large enough and young enough to transform it into a new Krypton. ”
Hearing that Depp really wanted to help Zord and others rebuild the new Krypton, Clark's nerves, which had been tense, finally relaxed.
He leaned back in his chair and said in a rather relaxed tone, "Things seem to have been settled perfectly, right?" ”
"That's pretty much it." Depp patted Lex and whispered to him: "When the meeting is over, don't leave yet, wait for me here for a while." ”
Without waiting for Lex to react, Depp stood up and returned to his seat, then clapped his hands and said: "Now, we have entered the final stage of the meeting and voted to decide the final solution to the problem." ”
"First of all, there is the issue of urban redevelopment, which does not seem to be in dispute, so it can be skipped for the time being. As for the follow-up cooperation between the three companies, the respective responsible persons will contact them individually. ”
"And then there's the question of what to do with the Kryptonians." Depp said: "Actually, the problem is divided into three solutions, Superman, Lex and me. ”
"Everyone, you can pick up the voting card in your hand and give it to the party you support."
"Isn't your speed a little too fast?"
Depp looked at the voting cards in front of him and said, all the voting cards, even Lex's, were thrown in front of him.
"It seems. Voting has also become a redundant drama. ”
"So, the meeting is over!"
"Have a perfect day everyone."
After Depp finished speaking, everyone continued to interest, and only four people stayed at the end.
Depp, Selena, Mera and Lex.
Lex took off his mask, took a long breath, and said, "Seriously, it's so uncomfortable to wear this thing all the time, I'm almost suffocating." ”
"Aren't you curious about what I left you for?" Depp asked.
On his side, Selena and Mera also took off their masks.
Among the four people present, they don't need to hide their true identities like Clark and Bruce do.
Lex smiled when he heard this: "Of course I'm curious, but I know that since you took the initiative to keep me, then you don't need me to take the initiative to ask anything." ”
"He's a brilliant guy." Depp said, and in Lex's shocked gaze, he took out two black rectangular wooden boxes from the system space.
The box is about two meters long and sixty centimeters wide, and Lex can't figure out how Depp escaped from his arms with two wooden boxes as big as that.
Could it be that this guy is the legendary Doraemon?
Depp opened the two wooden boxes, revealing the corpses of Kryptonians who had long since lost their heads.
These are the two Kryptonians who were killed and eaten by Grandi, and Depp deliberately pulled them out of Grandi's stomach after returning to Gotham.
Before Lex could say his shocking words, countless afterimages flashed, and a young man with a blue electric light appeared in front of everyone.
