I'm doing bidirectional science popularization in American comics

At that very moment, eight intelligent defense robots, identical to those from yesterday, stealthily approached from behind the two.

This time, having learned from yesterday's experience, these intelligent robots directly activated the stealth module.

They arrived silently and surrounded Depp and Clark.

Clearly, the inexperienced Clark was focused entirely on the workbench sockets in front of him, completely unaware of the concealed intelligent defense robots.

However, this stealth technique was useless against Depp's keen senses.

Depp had anticipated all of this, and he had been using his X-ray vision ever since he entered the spaceship.

In Depp's view, these invisible intelligent defense robots, after surrounding him and Clark, stretched out their bodies like alien insects, pointing the tips of their tails at him and Clark.

The faint blue light emanating from the tip of its tail was clearly some kind of laser weapon.

Depp immediately activated the Speed ​​Force, instantly adjusting the orientation of the tips of these alien robots' tails.

With a loud thud, the eight intelligent defense robots attacked each other and fell to the ground simultaneously.

This startled Clark, whose attention was entirely focused on the console and keys.

He immediately looked around and asked, "What's going on?"

Depp patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's nothing, these robots are probably welcoming us."

"Well, although these things don't actually look very friendly."

Clark turned his head and forcefully inserted the black key with the "S" logo into the control panel.

In an instant, the entire spaceship was illuminated.

The dozen or so intelligent defense robots that arrived as reinforcements also retracted their armor and tails and walked past the two of them as if nothing had happened.

"Looks like we made the right choice coming here," Depp said with relief.

Clark's eyes flickered, and he said nervously, "I think I just saw something."

As he spoke, Clark pointed to the passage not far away, where a figure seemed to have just flashed by.

Depp turned around. Although he didn't see the figure Clark had mentioned, Depp knew without even guessing that it was definitely Joel's projection.

And this time, because of his own actions, Clark arrived at the spaceship ahead of schedule.

Therefore, there shouldn't be any Louis Lane's voice here to interrupt Clark's search for his father.

"Go after that shadow, that's the person you've always been searching for."

Upon hearing this, Clark silently chased after the direction in which the figure had just disappeared.

After Clark left, the spaceship's voice prompt said: "Recursive procedure diagnosis complete, navigation permission confirmed."

Following the shadow, Clark ran to the control room located at the very front of the spaceship.

As the control panel rose, Clark saw the person he had been chasing all along.

He was a middle-aged man wearing a black robe, with a refined appearance and dark brown hair.

Before Clark could speak, the man said first, "It seems you've grown up. I wish Lara could see it too."

"Who are you?" Clark was incredibly excited, but his expression suddenly calmed down.

“I am your father, Karl,” the man named Joel said as he circled Clark. “Or perhaps his shadow, his consciousness. My name is Joel.”

“Father…” Clark whispered.

“I’m really surprised you didn’t even ask me who Karl is,” said Joel’s projection.

Clark smiled and said, "I know that's my name, Karl. And I've also known for a long time that my biological father's name is Joel."

Joel: ? ? ? ?

"This doesn't make sense. This is your first time using this key, how could you possibly know that information beforehand?"

Joel asked with a puzzled look.

Clark said, "Someone had already told me all this before this."

“This is impossible!” Joel exclaimed in shock.

Chapter 327 Superman!

“But that’s the truth,” Clark said. “My name, your name, Mom’s name, and…where I come from. Someone told me all that before I came here.”

"Even the location of this spaceship was told to me by that older brother."

elder brother?

Where did you get an older brother? I only have one son!

Undeterred, Joel asked, "Then, can you tell me what the person you call your brother told you?"

Clark stroked his chin, pondering, and said, "Hmm... For example, I come from Krypton, a planet extremely far from Earth. There, the red sun shines on the earth, and technology has reached its peak."

"Krypton's technology has even reached a level that can affect fertility."

"And the Kryptonian Codex is the mother of all Kryptonians after that."

"The Codex is like a reproductive code; it contains the gene pool of all types of Kryptonians."

"Some people are born warriors, able to quickly master various weapons and possess a strong combat awareness."

"Some people are born scientists; physical formulas or chemical equations are like living things to them."

“Some people are born as workers, and they can operate various mechanical equipment as easily as if they were their own arms.”

"In the vast Chamber of Creation, the Secret Codex nurtures one Kryptonian after another, each with their own unique talents and responsibilities."

"This has accelerated Krypton's development again, because everyone knows from birth what job they are best suited for, and that is what they must do, so people never waste their talents."

"But excessive mining and development overburdened Krypton's core, ultimately leading to its destruction."

"Almost all the Kryptonians perished along with Krypton in that catastrophe."

After hearing Clark's words, Joel felt his mind go blank for a moment.

Even his projection became a bit blurry after flickering a few times.

Damn it... who leaked the news?

This is totally illogical!

Suddenly, Joel had an idea. He reached out and swiped his finger, and a screen appeared in front of him.

Then, a photo appeared on the screen. The person in the photo had a square face and a full beard, and exuded a chilling aura.

Below the photo, there is a name written on it.

General Drew Zod

Joel pointed to General Zod's photo on the screen and asked, "Was it the man in the photo who told you all that?"

Clark shook his head and said, "No, I've never met this General Zod. The person who told me all that was Depp."

“Depp…” Joel pondered, then shook his head slightly and said, “Unfortunately, I don’t remember any Kryptonian named Depp who escaped that disaster.”

“Perhaps I can bring Depp over so you can see him,” Clark said. “I came to this spaceship with him.”

"What?!" Joel exclaimed immediately, "Then bring him here, or perhaps... I've already found him."

With that, Joel began to move forward.

Clark followed closely behind, afraid of losing sight of the last vestige of consciousness his biological father had left.

Soon, the two found Depp.

At this moment, Depp was squatting on the ground, holding a smart defense robot in his arms.

Depp stroked the robot's neck back and forth with the same caress a cat would use.

Because the spaceship system recognized it as one of their own, the intelligent defense robot, which Depp was holding and rubbing in his arms, not only did not resist, but instead stretched out its armor like a kitten, letting Depp massage it limply.

Clark:.......

Jorel:.......

Joel and Clark exchanged a glance, communicating silently with their eyes.

"Is this the Depp you were talking about? Is he out of his mind?"

“Father, believe me, he really wasn’t like this before.”

"you sure?"

"I'm sure!"

"But this is not bad either. At least I don't have to worry about a fool tricking my son away."

"Forehead....."

Clark continued, saying that he had long been influenced by Depp to become a Red Warrior.

However, in a sense, Krypton's original social model was quite in line with the theories that Johnny Depp taught him.

With advanced technology and civilization, everyone is fulfilling their responsibilities in the goal of revitalizing Krypton.

Clark thought to himself, perhaps this is the final form of civilization.

"Cough cough cough."

Joel spoke up, saying, "Hello, Mr. Depp."

Depp looked up, then grinned and tossed away the smart defense robot in his hand.

He then stood up, wiped the oil off his hands, and extended his hand, saying, "Hello, Mr. Joel."

"You know my name?"

As soon as Joel asked the question, he realized he had asked a pointless question.

Because his son had just said that the man in front of him had told him a lot of information, including his own name.

"Of course, Mr. Joel, you are one of the most famous scientists on Krypton."

Depp said with an "I know this" expression.

Joel's projection grasped Depp's hand and said, "How did you learn all this? I don't think I ever heard of you when I was on Krypton."
