American comics: Enlightenment in Arkham, Ascension to Homelander.

Chapter 320: Afterlife
"Your words are quite philosophical..."

Clark sighed deeply, then sighed.

Listening to Clark's sigh, Donton curled his lips and continued to talk to Clark.

"What's the use of philosophy? It can only comfort those who are not strong enough.

As for you, you need no comfort, I believe in you, young man.

By the way, how is your mother now? Is she used to living in the manor?

Don't worry, I will be responsible for your mother's safety from now on. No one has the right to harm the people I protect. You can live more freely in the future without worrying about your family being hurt~"

At this point, Downton patted Clark on the shoulder.

Seeing this, Clark took a deep breath and then nodded heavily.

"Thanks, Don."

"Haha, you're welcome. I haven't done many good things, and I never expect to earn a good reputation for myself by relying on the good things I have done.

As for you, kid, I know you and I are not the same kind of people, so I won’t restrict your freedom, just be yourself.

Of course, I hope the family can keep a place in your heart.

After all, the meaning of a family is not for everyone to get together to do something big, but that when everyone cannot do something on their own, they can seek help from the family.

Just like you rely on your family to take care of and protect your mother.

I also need to rely on you to take care of and protect the family when I am away.

We don't necessarily have to be friends, but we should at least be collaborators.

You can see that I am a bit of a jerk, but my friends are all pretty good, you will get along well~"

"Uh……"

Hearing the word "getting along well" from Downton's mouth, Clark couldn't help swallowing.

He couldn't help but think of that cold guy Bruce.

In his opinion, almost every so-called family today has problems.

Bruce is a persecuted maniac and Lex is a cold scientific research machine.

Victor is a jerk and a gangster who deals drugs and kills people, while Floyd is an executioner who sells his soul for money.

In addition, Lady Selina is a thief, and one of the top three thieves in the United States.

As for Zatanna, although her magical ability is very strong, she is a little girl without her own opinion.

And I am a young man who can barely be called strong, but is full of insecurity.

As for Downton...

Thinking of this, Clark couldn't help but glance at Downton, then swallowed hard.

He saw a devil who did whatever he wanted.

But precisely because he does whatever he wants, he becomes a hero in the eyes of some people.

In Clark's opinion, the most normal people in the entire Ghost Family are the two butlers, Alfred and Pierce.

While Clark was thinking, the door of the ward in front suddenly opened, and Martha Kent came out with a peeled apple.

As soon as she went out, she saw Clark and Downton arm in arm. Martha was slightly stunned, and then she couldn't help asking Downton.

"Young man, why are you dressed like this...?"

"Haha, I finally met a normal person. You are the first one who asked me about my dress today, Martha!"

Downton immediately became interested. He let go of Clark and walked to Martha, picked up the apple that Martha had just peeled and took a bite.

He continued while chewing.

"I went traveling before, and these are my spoils. How about it, Martha? This outfit looks pretty cool, doesn't it~"

As he spoke, Donton turned around with the apple in his mouth, earning a look of contempt from Martha.

"I peeled that apple for Selina. Since you ate it, you can peel another one for your wife yourself..."

"Yes."

Hearing Martha say this, Donton suddenly remembered something, so he pushed open the door, glanced at Selina lying on the hospital bed inside, and then asked.

"Martha, why are you in Selina's hospital room?"

"Otherwise, besides taking care of the farm, the only thing I can do to help you is taking care of people.

Each of you is injured more seriously than the other. How can I feel at ease staying in the house you arranged for me and rest without any care in the world?

Although I can't help much, it's good to chat with you.

Come in quickly, Lady Selina has been talking about you all day, I don't quite believe her guess about you, she bets that you and that Diana have a relationship, but I am very interested in the result. "

After she finished speaking, Martha came out and let Downton and his group into the ward.

Seeing Downton come in, the doctors and nurses in the ward hurriedly bowed to him.

"Boss Ghost."

"Boss."

"Lord Ghost!"

As the medical staff was greeting her, Donton walked over with a bite taken out of an apple and stuffed the apple into Selina's mouth.

He asked softly while Selina was eating an apple.

"how do you feel?"

"It feels like I can't come from behind standing for a while, dear..."

Selina swallowed the apple, then licked her lips and said to Donton.

The moment Selina finished speaking, Clark behind Downton blushed.

At the same time, after a slight pause, Donton rubbed Selina's hair in amusement.

"Why not? I can make you float."

"So I broke both my legs, and you're actually still thinking about that!"

"what?"

"Haha, I was just kidding. How's Diana? You disappeared alone with her for so long. Don't tell me you didn't do anything!"

"Yes, of course I did. I'm afraid she won't dare to come for a while."

"Why didn't you take me with you? You must ask me to come with you next time. The first time I saw that bitch, I wanted to have fun with her..."

"Cough cough!!!"

On the side, Clark coughed heavily twice, then turned and left awkwardly.

"I haven't eaten yet. Uh, I'm going to eat first. You guys chat..."

"Ha, my good boy is shy. If he were shy at any other time, I would think that there was something wrong with my education.

But he is shy now, it must not be a problem with my education, you guys are really... amazing!"

Martha smiled and gave a thumbs-up to Donton and Selina, then left the ward with Clark.

At the same time they left, Ah Fu also left with the medical staff after confirming Selina's condition.

Seeing that she and Donton were the only ones left in the ward, Selina raised her hand unhappily, grabbed Donton's shoulder armor and pulled him in front of her.

Holding Donton's face tightly with both hands, Selina kissed him heavily. After a few minutes, Selina separated from Donton panting, then raised her hand with her eyes wide open and gently stroked Donton's armor.

Feeling the cold texture of the armor, Selina swallowed hard and said.

"When I recover, you must fuck me once wearing it!
Oh my God, this is the first time I have seen such gorgeous armor. Is this the mysterious oriental-style armor? "

Having said that, Selina looked suddenly at Donton's feet, then curled her lips in dissatisfaction.

"This armor is good in every way, except that it's a bit lewd. Why does it have to expose the feet? Why should my man be seen by other bitches?"

"Ha ha!"

Selina's words made Donton laugh. He took off his armor while laughing, and then lay down next to Selina wearing only a pair of nano pajamas.

After avoiding Selina's hanging feet, he buried his head in Selina's arms and fell into a deep sleep not long after.

Looking at Downton who fell into a sound sleep in the blink of an eye, Selina curled her lips in annoyance.

"You're heavy, asshole..."

The night passed quickly, and in the morning, Donton left the nursing area, carrying some basins of milk to the yard to clean up the panda.

Just as the pandas were enjoying their food, Pierce pushed Lex from the bedroom towards the laboratory.

Seeing from afar that Downton had woken up, Lex raised his hand to ask Pierce to stop, and he controlled the wheelchair to leave Pierce and rushed to Downton.

Lex said to Donton while staring at the pandas around him worriedly.

"Don, I heard that Israel is the promised land you gave to those two African gods. Is that right?"

"The Promised Land?"

Donton was slightly stunned, then he couldn't help laughing.

"What a promised land, that's a fitting word. What's the matter, Lex?"

"Nothing, I just think we need to avenge the dead humans.

Regardless of whether the deceased is an American or someone else, human beings should not die in vain at the hands of other living beings.

But you know, I have to consider your opinion. Are you sure you want to provide them with shelter?"

"shelter?"

After hearing what Lex said, Donton shook his head in amusement.

"What shelter? I didn't give them shelter.

They asked me for territory, so I just randomly marked one out for them to play with, but why should I protect them? I didn’t fuck her.”

"Uh……"

Lex rolled his eyes helplessly, then nodded slightly.

“In that case, I understand. I will advance the vibranium project as soon as possible. After combining it with nanotechnology, I will also apply it to the armor of the family members as soon as possible.

When we are ready, we will set out again and go to Israel to kill them and avenge the tens of millions of people who died at their hands!
Tang, you won't stop us, right?"

"Of course not, and even if I stop you, will you not go?
Although I am too lazy to seek revenge for anyone I don't know, you are my friends, so of course I support you.

If I can find any new technology while traveling, I will bring it back to help you~"

Donton smiled and patted Lex on the shoulder, while Lex controlled the wheelchair and continued walking towards the laboratory.

As soon as he entered the laboratory, Lex saw Bruce hanging there with half of his body continuing to work on the scientific research project of the vibranium armor.

After taking a look, Lex frowned in dissatisfaction and said.

"Bruce, if I were you, I wouldn't be so harsh on my body.

You are injured much more seriously than I am. What you need more is rest, not experiments, or even staying up all night to conduct experiments!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lex controlled the wheelchair to come in front of Bruce and took Bruce's seat.

Seeing Lex taking over the scientific research work skillfully, Bruce took a deep breath and then nodded slightly.

"I cannot sit idly by and watch the suit project come to a halt while the murderer of tens of millions of people is still at large.

Since you can continue, I will take a rest for a while. I will get up to help you after I have slept for two hours!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Bruce untied the suspension rope on his shoulders, and he groaned as his arms fell down again.

Beside him, Lex reached up and picked up the power assist device, expertly installing it on the segmented cast on Bruce's arm, taking over Bruce's hand and shoulder movements.

At the same time, Bruce continued to ask while adjusting the action mode of the auxiliary device.

"Where's Tang, is he awake?"

"He's awake. He was just feeding those dangerous bears. As for now, he's probably traveling again."

After he finished speaking, Lex looked towards the manor meadow with a deep gaze.

As he stared, Bruce emphasized to him after a brief silence.

"Those bears are not dangerous."

"Haha, even if it is so."

Lex responded with a smile, and then devoted himself to the research and development of the latest round of vibranium armor.

Meanwhile, at Downton.

After feeding the panda, he disappeared in the firelight.

A moment later, I looked at a surreal-looking city in front of me and heard the sound of gunfire passing by.

Donton was stunned for a moment, then he suddenly raised his hand, grabbed the guy who was running past him with a gun, and grabbed the guy's neck.

"Where is this? Isn't this Night City?"

He asked the guy he was pinching.

Hearing Donton's question, the guy who was being pinched by him spat on the ground beside him and continued.

"Who are you? You don't even look like you have a prosthetic body. Are you also an idiot from the Tiger Claw Gang?"

Even though he was grabbed by the neck, the man in front of him was not afraid at all. Instead, he stretched out his hand to Donton.

The next moment, a sharp mantis knife popped out from his arm.

And the moment the mantis knife popped out, his head was crushed by Donton!
While pulling his hands out of the brain, Donton patted his armor.

"Change your appearance."

As soon as he finished speaking, the four-piece suit shook violently, and then immediately turned into a neatly tailored suit.

While the clothes were changing, Donton took out several sets of chips and chip slots from the brain of the man in front of him.

Pulling the chip and looking at the mantis knife, Donton grinned, then suddenly opened his arms.

“You actually came here to do this for me, haha!
So get ready to welcome me, Night City!!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Donton suddenly stretched out his foot and kicked the head of the cyber gangster who was following him into powder.

With blood spurting out, he picked up the headless corpse and swung it hard, immediately smashing the remaining four people into meat paste.

After doing all this, he shook his hands, then waved to the passers-by around him who had stopped fleeing due to the emergency, and asked.

"This is Night City, right?

So, does anyone know where the afterlife is?"
