American comics: Starting with replicating Superman's talent

Chapter 229 Chloe's Birthday Party

"A birthday party?"

Smallville town.

Luther Castle.

Gino looked at the invitation in his hand with a puzzled expression.

"Yes."

The old butler maintained his composed demeanor, one hand behind his back, ignoring Fiona who was training Kara combat techniques in the hall.

Gino stared at the invitation in his hand, stroking his chin in thought.

"Gino!"

Before Gino could even open the invitation, Clark, who had rushed into the hall from outside at lightning speed, stood in front of the boy.

"You received an invitation too."

Seeing the invitation in Gino's hand, Clark grinned: "So, what kind of car are you planning to drive?"

"drive?"

Gino shook his head: "No, actually I don't want to go."

He knew Chloe liked him, and what worried the boy at that moment was that the girl would confess her feelings to him during her birthday party.

I don't like Chloe, and rejecting her outright would embarrass her...

"What is Lana doing?"

Gino asked casually, after all, Lana and Chloe were inseparable.

"Her?" Clark's face showed a bitter expression when he heard Gino ask about Lana. "I went to see her before."

"But recently she has locked herself in her room and refused to go out, claiming that she is studying medieval European witchcraft culture."

Gino suddenly realized, and chuckled, jokingly saying, "Then you really shouldn't have bothered her."

"After all, you've never passed history."

"That's not how it works," Clark said with a wry smile. "I plan to help Lana find medieval historical documents."

"You know, I've been so busy lately, I haven't had much time to spend with her."

"Okay, whatever makes you happy."

Gino yawned and took the milk from the maid's hand, drinking it all in one gulp.

"But a medieval witch." Gino frowned.

To be honest, after experiencing this period of time, he still felt that something big was going to happen.

In the Middle Ages, a witch, especially if paired with a spellbook…

Where is Lana now?

Gino's character is never one to sit idly by and wait for death.

He planned to go see Lana and find out how she was doing.

"Well, she, Chloe, and Louise rented the town's café and planned to turn it into a birthday hall."

"Let's go take a look."

Gino looked serious and strode out of the hall.

Seeing his friend's serious expression, Clark guessed the seriousness of the matter, his smile vanished, and he followed Gino into the hall.

...

For speedsters, crossing a small town can be done in an instant.

When Gino and Clark arrived at Aunt Lana's two-story house.

Surprisingly, the curtains that should have been drawn in the white sun were tightly closed.

"To be honest, didn't you use your X-ray vision to check what's inside?" Gino glanced at Clark helplessly and pushed open the door to enter the room first.

The surroundings were completely dark, and the wooden planks underfoot were covered with shards of glass.

"What happened here?"

Clark lifted his leg to avoid the debris, and was shocked.

Everywhere you looked, the hall inside the house was a mess.

On the white wall, strange and intricate magic circle patterns were outlined with an unknown red liquid, and its connection to the mystical world was immediately apparent.

"A mystical magical ritual is visible to the naked eye."

Gino pursed his lips and snapped his fingers lightly with his right hand.

Golden, radiant magical energy surged from around his towering figure.

They gather and fill every corner of the room.

"The show is about to begin."

Gino crossed his arms.

Under the surge of heavenly magic, the originally messy house seemed to have been turned back on.

The shattered glass fragments scattered on the roof slowly floated in the air and reformed, while the scarlet patterns on the walls also disappeared, as if erased by the invisible hand of time.

As time rewinds, Clark sees three figures formed from golden magical energy appear out of thin air in the room.

"Lana!"

Clark stared in astonishment at the girl's radiant face.

"This is it."

Gino pressed his right hand down, and the video began to play.

"Phew, it's really hot today."

Lana was the first to enter the cabin, a seductive smile on her lips, as she took a bottle of red wine from the table.

"Shall we have a drink?" Lana turned around and winked at the two women.

"That's not a good idea," Chloe started to refuse, but Louise showed great interest: "Of course, is it good wine?"

Chloe felt somewhat helpless about her cousin's insatiable drinking habit.

Gino crossed his arms and watched the three women raise their glasses in a toast.

As the crimson wine dripped onto her red lips, wisps of peculiar purple energy flowed into her body along with the wine.

The next instant, Chloe and Louise froze, and when they looked up again, their expressions and movements were as if they were completely different people.

"Madeline, Blaine."

Lana smiled and opened her arms, saying, "Welcome to the 21st century!"

As the woman opened her arms, a violent energy roared like a storm, seemingly threatening to destroy everything.

The round table was overturned, and the chairs and tables tipped over.

As the wine glass shattered, everything seemed to reach a breaking point, and the golden energy burst apart.

"Whoosh!"

It was as if a strong wind had blown by, and everything seemed to return to the original scene.

"What...what was that just now?"

Seeing what was happening, Clark's mouth dropped open in shock. Well, he felt he shouldn't be shocked, after all, Gino Luther was always omnipotent.

"It's just a magic spell to trace the origin of the scene, nothing to be too surprised about." Gino ignored Clark and focused his gaze on the magic circle on the wall: "No matter who they are, the most important thing to do now is to find them."

"Yes, you're right." Clark's hands trembled, and he even stuttered from anger.

His crush has been possessed by a medieval old witch!?

"The singer searches for Chloe, Lana, and Louise in the town."

As Gino gave the order, a blue light flashed across the town, followed by the singer's cold voice: "According to the search, they are in the cave on the west side of the town, the same cave where you found Miss Kara."

"Understood."

Gino sighed and glanced at Clark: "Stay here, Clark."

"What?"

Hearing Gino's words, Clark was slightly taken aback: "Why do you want me to stay here?"

"because…"

Gino gazed at Clark with a look of pity in his eyes.

"You are afraid of magic."

"magic?"

Clark tilted his head, somewhat incredulous, and patted his chest.

Do you think I'm afraid of magic?

The big boy puffed out his chest, trying to show off his heroic and domineering aura.

"Are you sure?" Gino looked at Clark again with a skeptical gaze.
