Chapter Twenty-Three: Shirley is on top!

Ellesmere Island.

As the 10th largest island in the world and the third largest island in Canada, this is a world of ice and snow.

Clark helped the big man off the plane, and the other man from the planet was a beautiful journalist who had won the Pulitzer Prize, the world's highest honor in journalism.

"Thank you!"

"You're welcome!"

Louise looked around at the world of ice and snow and took pictures, and the person who took her left with her things.

At night, Clark couldn't wait to embark on the road of trepidation in the cold wind.

He had already seen through the ice with his see-through eyes, and behind it was a large shadow, much like the outline of a spaceship.

He was excited to come to a place where there was a cliff inside, and below was near the ice of the ocean, and the joy in his heart made him ignore the movement behind him, and his eyes lit up red.

The heat line of sight melted the ice, forming a tunnel more than a man high, and he approached step by step.

"Mom, Daddy, I found it, I'll be back soon." Clarke, 33, smiled like a child.

A large space soon appeared in front of him, and there lay an oversized sea mussel, a crustacean that is normally used by sea creatures to resist the high pressures of the deep sea.

The floor and walls of the space were carved with a plethora of ritual runes resembling religious beliefs, and Clark noticed that at the center of it all.

It was a small back, and he stood in the middle of everything, countless figures in battle armor and dark gold robes prostrate at his feet, bathing in his glory.

Confused, Clark stepped through the hatch stairs and into the interior of the ship.

The sleek lines inside the ship have a unique aesthetic, and the simple and practical aesthetic of the Kryptonians is vividly reflected here.

Sensing the intrusion of outsiders, the ship's console activates its internal energy and slowly rises, its core filled with a faint blue light.

Its energy technology is very similar to the Kryptonian artificial core energy technology made by Joel, and it originates from the same blueprint.

Behind Clark, an ancient hovering artificial intelligence that did not yet possess high intelligence and emotion floated over to verify the identity of the visitor.

Clark took off the pendant on his chest, looked at the S on it, and sighed, he didn't understand what this thing was, and now it seems that it is a key.

The console adsorbs the key, and for a long time, there is no response.

The act of installing a console without pressing the key without Krypton common sense is judged to be an intruder in the eyes of artificial intelligence.

Weaponized liquid earth condenses into a whip and attacks Clark!

But for this Clark, it was not too difficult, he casually broke free from the whip, pressed the key, and the artificial intelligence as the ship's steward obediently calmed down.

Clark then noticed a figure in the distance looking at him, and when he saw him coming, he tilted his head, as if to say come and follow me into the Mickey Wonder House.

After two fruitless greetings, Clark chased after him.

Guided by the figure, Clark saw several skeletons in the sleeping pod, and a sense of sadness welled up.

At this moment, a cry of pain rang out, and a groan made Clark immediately walk towards the cabin just now.

The two punches exploded for nearly 20,000 years, faithfully waiting for the spaceship, and now he is ready to stay with Clark for the rest of his life......

The ship then rose and exited the human-monitored area.

Perched on a glacier far from human sight, Clark watched the Kryptonian spacecraft examine itself.

"I'm sure Layla will be relieved to finally see you."

"Who are you?"

"I'm your dad."

Joel looked at Clark, who frowned.

"Your father's name is Joe Eyre, and I am his consciousness, and you, my child, your real name, are Carl Eyre." Joel looked at her child, smiling lightly but satisfied.

"I have some questions......" Clark said to his other father, laughing but uncomfortable.

The six words "I am his consciousness" made Clark realize something.

"Don't worry, listen to me."

Joel turned around, and the walls of liquid earth behind him quickly formed a picture of Krypton's history.

"About 100,000 years ago, after losing the golden Krypton, the ancestors of the Kryptonian wandered in the starry sky, without a home, and were already facing a desperate situation.

Rao, the former Kryptonian god, and three other Kryptonian gods have disappeared.

In grief and despair, the Kryptonian ancestors planned to abandon some of their people in exchange for a longer voyage and find another planet to settle in.

But they faced a cosmic space catastrophe, and almost all of them died, but fortunately, a new main god appeared.

The Great and Supreme He resurrected all the Kryptonians who died in the deep space, gave youth to the elderly, and health to the disabled, sick and weak.

And it crossed the starry sky for an unknown number of light years, bringing everyone to a new home.

The Great Lord God is all-knowing and all-powerful, and has powers that you and I can never guess.

As for our new home, your home planet, her name is Krypton, a massive planet with two moons orbiting a red giant.

Krypton is much larger than Earth, and for some special reason, gravity is one hundred and twenty times larger than that of Earth.

Compared with the earth, the environment of Krypton is probably like a vast desert and a greenhouse, and only we Kryptonians can adapt to such a world.

The Great Lord God guided our ancestors again and again, but until a certain moment came.

A sage, his name is Za El, who noticed the changes in Krypton, foresaw the demise of Krypton, and he left traces in many texts so that I could follow in his footsteps.

When I was a child, my little Zod and I met the great Lord God, who had just given Krypton his own virtues, giving his people the opportunity to choose for themselves.

Zod and I received different things from Him, and Zod received a prophecy.

More on that later.

The Great Lord God tells us that in a few hundred years, Krypton will be destroyed, and that we Kryptonians will live twice as long as this in the glory of the Lord God.

Sure enough, when I became Krypton's Chief Scientist and Zod became Krypton's General, we ran out of natural resources and mined energy in Krypton's core.

It's unavoidable, and for Kryptonians, energy is food.

I made two attempts, one was to create an artificial Kryptonian kernel to place inside Krypton, but failed.

And the other effort, is you, my son.

In Krypton, we have long started artificial genetic engineering, created a life code that counts all genes, and gave up natural reproduction, but you are different, you are the hope that I and Leila were born in violation of Krypton's laws.

When I persuaded the elders, Zod, as a military leader, launched a revolution and persuaded me to join him, but I refused.

After that, I broke free from Zod's control, stole the Code of Life, and implanted it in your body.

I think it was at the sacrifice of the Sage Szar El who fought with his life to kill the Kryptonian battleship that you were finally able to come to Earth, my child.

In the last years of Krypton, the Great Lord God had his daughter, who was the miracle Fiora, the new god of Krypton.

Karl, my son, you are the miracle of the great Lord God to Krypton!

The Origin Chamber, where my mother Leila and I were born, this ship also carries one that you can use to make your fellow citizens when you crave your kind.

But I hope that you can integrate into the human beings on Earth, build a family, and reproduce, which is the best way to complete the bridge between the two civilizations.

Artificial genetic engineering determines the role of each Kryptonian when he grows up, worker, warrior, leader......

I feel that I have failed to live up to the twelfth virtue given by the great Lord God, which contains freedom of will, and you are the only naturally born child of Krypton's time, and you carry this freedom.

Freedom and miracles, the gifts of the great gods of Krypton's last years to his people are embodied in you, Karl.

We don't want you to be defined as a fixed person by Kryptonian society, so we violated Kryptonian's laws and sent you to Earth at risk and pressure. ”

Clark burst into tears when he heard this.

As the chief scientist of Krypton, Joel as a leader gave him a great mission, telling him to be himself and let him have his own choices, but also made him shoulder a heavy responsibility that worried him.

As a farmer, Jonathan, who was a guiding light from childhood to adulthood, gave him a sentence of what to plant on the farm where he grew up.

Jonathan had known for a long time that Clark would eventually have a heavy responsibility, and he couldn't bear to let his children work so hard.

The love of the two fathers made Clarke's nose sour.

He asked, "Then why don't you come to Earth with me?" ”

"No, you are our world, our hope and miracle, the temple of the great Lord God is still on Krypton, and Leila and I will not abandon our faith.

Fortunately, now, you have done it, you are here, a child of the earth, a child of Krypton, a child of the great Lord God.

Do you see this sign, on the Kryptonian key I gave you, and this one on my chest, is the meaning of our El family, it is called hope! Now, it's you!

Go fly, Karl, I've seen the power of the Sage Szar El, and you can do the same.

Basking in the glow of the Earth's yellow sun, your cells absorb its radiation and become more powerful.

Try your limits, your power, your speed, your perception, your mind, and ......

A miracle that all Kryptonians pin on you!

You will also bring a goal to the earthlings, you stand on a high place, so that they are no longer confused, and they will follow you.

Eventually walking by your side in the sun, the process will be extremely difficult, you may fall, but eventually you will get up.

You will be their god! ”

Joel looked at Clark, who had poured all his ambitions, love, and hopes into his son.

Clark has long since stopped crying, he is not as strong as in the movies, and he will feel sad.

When the love given to him by his biological parents was revealed, both were no longer alive.

"Don't cry, Carl, I have something to tell you.

The Great Lord God had made a pact with Zod not to swear in his name at some point in three hundred years.

So I firmly believe that Zod did not die in the rebellion and explosion of Krypton, and he will come to Earth.

When he comes to earth to deceive you, let him swear an oath, and if he wills, note whose name he swears by when he swears.

If he is not in the name of the great Lord God, you let him add this sentence and swear again! Joel wanted to touch Clark's head to comfort the son, but unfortunately he wasn't an entity.

"Which one?" Clark asked, wiping away his tears.

Then he saw Joel's reverent expression.

Joel looked up at the roof of the ship's cabin with heartfelt feelings.

"Shirley is on top!"
