American comics: Starting with replicating Superman's talent

Chapter 35 Waiting for a Rabbit to Run into a Tree Stump

News of Mrs. Ted's death spread like wildfire, reaching the entire town in just a few hours.

In such an ordinary and remote town, even the smallest, most trivial matters can spread at an alarming speed, let alone a shocking incident like Mrs. Ted's suspected murder.

However, like some other departments, the town police, who searched the cabin and found several mummified corpses, were not capable of handling this bizarre situation, so the authorities chose to suppress the news and request support from higher authorities.

The town's former tranquility has been shattered, and everything looks chaotic.

This is Lana's room at this moment.

The curtains cover the windows, obscuring the interior of the room.

Clark cautiously sat on the edge of Lana's bed, peeking into his goddess's boudoir. Although he had once done the embarrassing thing of peeping at his goddess with binoculars, Clark was a man of principle. Once Lana entered the room, he would stop looking.

So this was the first time Clark had ever seen Lana's bedroom.

"What would you like to eat?"

Lana washed some fruit, put it on a tray, and walked in, smiling and shrugging, saying, "I baked some pizzas myself, but they won't be ready for a while."

"Thank you." Clark accepted an apple with a reserved air, then looked curiously at Gino, who was sitting in a corner chair. "Won't you have some?"

"Not hungry." Gino shook his head, closed his eyes to rest, and suspected that Gray had also been affected by Kryptonite and mutated.

Lana put down the tray, her face filled with gratitude, and said, "Thank you for being willing to stay with me."

Her gaze mostly lingered on Gino, because it was Gino who had proposed the plan, which was kept in her home.

Lana even felt a little ashamed; she shouldn't have been so rude to Gino, he was a good person.

"Hmm, you should go to bed now." Gino nodded lightly, glancing at the clock on the wall, which showed "24:00".

"You'll be watching over me, right?" Lana asked nervously, clutching the hem of her clothes.

"Of course, we'll observe from outside." Clark stood up with Gino, not forgetting to assure Lana.

"Smack."

Someone turned off the lights before leaving, and the once bright room was gradually swallowed by darkness.

Lana lay down on the bed as Gino had instructed and slowly closed her eyes.

The girl's eyelids trembled; clearly, too many things had happened that day, leaving her anxious. In particular, hearing Gino say that Gray might come looking for her only intensified Lana's fear.

Lana tossed and turned in bed, the events of the day playing in her mind like scenes from a movie.

"Shh~"

A sound came from outside the window, like the night wind whipping up leaves and hitting the windowpane.

Lana tensed up, and she found herself breathing faster.

Could it be that thing that's coming?

"Da da da~"

Something seemed to be knocking on the glass, and the sound grew more and more urgent. Lana was so frightened that she gripped the thin blanket tightly, wanting only to cover her face with the blanket and pretend to be an ostrich burying its head in the sand.

But the voice did not stop moving.

In the stillness of the night, in the darkness of the room, the sound gradually subsided.

However, this eerie silence made Lana's heart race and even her mouth go dry.

After a brief silence,

"Click-clack~"

The sound rang out again, but unlike last time, this time it sounded like something was cutting through the glass, making an unpleasant noise.

*Smack!*

It was as if something had entered the house, and a putrid, muddy smell filled the room.

"Lana," Gray's slightly deep voice rang out.

The figure gazed intently at Lana, and as he walked towards her, he said, "I'm going to take you away and make you my bride."

The figure drew closer and closer, until Lana could clearly hear his heavy breathing.

Just as the girl was about to scream in terror.

*Smack!*

The lights were turned on, illuminating the darkness in the room and setting the scene in motion.

A young man wearing an unconventional black jacket and sporting a slicked-back black hairstyle was reaching out his pale arm to touch Lana.

However, the sudden light made him instinctively raise his arm to shield his eyes.

Suppressing his discomfort, Gray stared coldly at the two figures standing outside the door. Then, his gaze turned icy and menacing: "Why are you two here?"

Especially since he appeared in Lana's house, it unconsciously reminded Gray of the threesome scenes in the pornographic films he had seen.

As images of his goddess being manipulated in various poses surfaced in his mind, his angry face gradually contorted into a grotesque and distorted expression.

"Grey Ted, is that right?"

Gino did not respond to Gray's question; he stared intently at Gray, a thoughtful expression on his face.

Compared to his previous slovenly appearance, this guy has not only grown taller, but his appearance has also improved somewhat; at least the acne on his face has disappeared.

Gino's lips curled into a sarcastic smile: "Does your mother's meat taste good?"

Upon hearing Gino's words, Gray was slightly taken aback.

Then, the young man grinned, revealing his pearly white teeth, and said, "To be honest, it tastes pretty good."

It seems these people have been to his house and discovered his secret.

Therefore, they were even more destined to die.

Having made up his mind, Gray stretched out his hands, and his originally normal arms gradually twisted and deformed. Soon, his two arms transformed into a pair of sharp scythes resembling those on a praying mantis.

"And from what you've said, I'm getting a little hungry. You two are quite tall, so you'd be perfect for my next dinner."

Before he could finish speaking, Gray opened his mouth and let out a strange cry. Then, he pushed off with both legs, creating a gust of air, and raised his sharp mantis blade to slash at the necks of the two men.

He will cut off their necks, suck their blood, taste their flesh, and then take his bride away.

At that moment in mid-air, Gray's figure pounced towards the two like a blur.

Five meters, four meters, three meters—the distance was getting closer and closer, and a look of excitement even appeared on Ge Rui's face.

He could almost see two headless corpses.

As they drew closer, Gray witnessed a scene that horrified him.

Gino's bright blue eyes were following his body's movements; his gaze could actually keep up with his speed of action.

Gray was puzzled, but before his brain, filled with yellow-colored rubbish, could figure out the connection, Gino made his move the next second.

Why do you think you can kill me?

The boy spoke calmly, but his raised right hand moved swiftly, precisely gripping Gray's scythe-like arms.

"Bang!"

A clean and decisive over-the-shoulder throw sent Gray's body slamming into the floor. The terrifying force shattered the floor, and Clark, unable to maintain his balance, fell into the first-floor living room along with Gino and Gray.

"This, this is impossible!" Gray frowned in pain, his arms held firmly by Gino, and stared in horror at that calm face.

Nothing is impossible.

Gino shook his head, then used his right hand to lift Gray up again and slam him hard against the floor.

"Bang bang bang!"

With a series of relentless slams to the left and right, easily shattering the floor, accompanied by Lana's screams, a dizzy Gray delivered a scene reminiscent of "The Hulk slamming the Second Prince of Asgard."
