I'm doing bidirectional science popularization in American comics

“But…but these are all our compatriots left.” Clark said, his head bowed. “Perhaps…perhaps we can help them, reform them, and make them yearn for peace and justice like I do.”

"Do you think this guy who almost destroyed the world would be willing to listen to your advice and become a nice guy?" Depp asked rhetorically.

Upon hearing this, Clark thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps, perhaps he's just a little slow on the uptake. We can send him to Arkham Asylum. Mr. Joseph said he's best at saving those lunatics."

Upon hearing this, Depp shook his head helplessly.

Before he traveled through time, he knew that Clark was an absolutely kind person.

I never imagined that Clark could be so kind.

Compared to kindness, Depp felt that another word was more suitable for Clark.

That is the Virgin Mary!

One of the most annoying protagonist characters in online novels.

However, Depp is not a saint. Ever since he was transported to Gotham and began to survive in the cracks, he has been doing this.

He knew that no matter how kind and doting he was to his friends and lovers, he would show no mercy once he decided that they were his enemies!

He didn't want to leave himself with those potential troubles that could strike him in the future!

However, just as Depp was about to ignore Clark's request and shoot Zod dead, the system's voice, accompanied by text, appeared in Depp's consciousness.

"Mission Name: Rebuild Krypton"

"Mission World: DC World"

"Mission requirements: Assist Clark and General Zod in rebuilding New Krypton."

"Mission Rewards: Unlock a new map randomly, 3 Fragments of Destiny, 3 weeks of travel time in a specified comic book world, and 1 ability draw card for a specified male character."

"Hey...."

Depp sighed softly, then his expression gradually softened. He said, "Alright, Clark, I can let him off the hook."

Clark looked up at this, his eyes filled with surprise and delight. He said, "Oh, I can't believe you actually agreed to my request. I know I'm being rude, but I have to thank you on their behalf, Depp."

Depp shoved a piece of chocolate into Zod's mouth, then tossed it to Clark, saying, "No, Clark, it was you who saved him, not me. When it's all over, you're responsible for getting him to Arkham and handing him over to Joseph."

Depp said this, but he had a different thought in his heart.

After all, he had initially refused Clark's request to spare Zod.

The system gave us way too much!

Whether it's unlocking new maps, setting a time limit for world travel, or drawing cards for specific character abilities, these are all rewards that Depp considers most valuable.

In addition, the three Fragments of Destiny are also a reward that Depp desperately needs right now.

Because his Mirror of Destiny just happens to need the last three Fragments of Destiny to upgrade.

To be honest, Depp is quite curious about what new features the upgraded Mirror of Profile will have.

Furthermore, when it comes to rebuilding the new Krypton, the most important thing is the Kryptonian Codex within Clark's body.

However, the Kryptonian Codex had already been integrated into Clark's genes and every cell by Jorel.

Logically, to obtain the Kryptonian Codex, one must destroy every cell in Clark's body and extract the Codex Factor.

But if he did that, even if Clark was the son of Krypton, he would surely die.

Unless Clark can absorb yellow sunlight in single-celled form and then re-evolve into a human.

However, Depp doesn't think Clark has this ability. In Depp's memory, apart from higher-dimensional beings, the only one with this ability is Deadpool, that freak.

Depp wouldn't kill Clark, who sees him as an older brother and mentor, just to complete a mission.

However, Depp had already obtained a Kryptonian secret manual during his time with Cope Clark and Martian Manhunter.

This reward, which Depp initially thought was useless, unexpectedly proved to be very important at this moment.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Depp decided to listen to Clark's advice and temporarily confine Zod to Arkham Asylum.

At worst, once the new Kryptonian reconstruction is complete and the system rewards are in hand, I can just take care of these guys myself.

After Clark caught Zod, Depp heard a series of system notifications in his ears again.

"Congratulations, host. Clark Kent's favorability towards you has exceeded the threshold."

"Awarded the title: Mentor of the Son of Krypton".

"Kryptonian Mentor: You have become the spiritual leader of the Kryptonians. Your attacks against Kryptonians will deal 50% more damage, and you will take 50% less damage when attacked by Kryptonians."

"Randomly gain one of Clark Kent's special abilities."

"Congratulations, host, you have acquired Clark Kent's thermal ray ability."

"The host's original thermal ray ability has been detected. Ability fusion is in progress."

"Fusion complete. The host's thermal ray ability has been greatly enhanced, with the enhancements being increased power and reduced charging time."

After hearing this series of hints, Depp thought to himself, "Wow!"

Even Depp's expression towards Clark became strange.

Depp thought to himself, "This kid truly lives up to his reputation as the center of the DC Universe. He only failed to kill Zod, yet he has already gained so many benefits!"

Depp tested his current heat ray ability and found that its power had increased by at least three times!

However, that's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that Depp's heat ray charging time is now almost zero!

It's important to know that both Homelanders and Kryptonians need to charge up their heat rays.

This brief period of charging up is also the biggest weakness of this ability.

If the enemy seizes the opportunity to interrupt the charging-up process, then the initiative in the battle will be lost immediately.

Depp knew all too well just how powerful heat rays could be without needing to be charged!

In addition, there is the title of "Kryptonian Son Mentor".

In Depp's opinion, this is hardly the mentor of the Kryptonian child.

This title should be "Krypton's Daddy"!

With this, Depp felt that no Kryptonian could pose any threat to him.

Even a fully-formed Clark might not have the upper hand when facing himself!

In this way, Depp was no longer afraid of the consequences of not killing Zod.

What is there to mention about Zod?

Watching Depp unleash several heat rays, Clark said with a tremor, "I have to get back to the ground, Depp, my flight time is almost up."

Upon hearing this, Depp waved his hand and said, "Go on, Clark, it's time for me to go to other battlefields to help my friends."

After saying that, the two flew towards Earth at the same time.

However, compared to Depp's speed, Clark is currently too slow.

While Depp had already broken through the atmosphere and arrived in South America, Clark was only just beginning to break through the atmosphere.

Depp circled in the air a few times and immediately locked onto the battlefield where Bruce and Fiora were located.

Depp landed on one knee like a hammer blow, appearing ten meters in front of Fiora.

Fiora was still barely clothed, her beautiful and fit figure on full display, her long legs barefoot on the ground, seemingly without any sense of unease.

Bruce, on her shoulder during the disaster relief effort, was unconscious.

"You're quite the ladies' man, Bat," Depp joked, slowly standing up and looking at the dashing Kryptonian female warrior.

Upon seeing this, Fiora immediately abandoned Bruce and assumed a fighting stance.

She stepped forward with her right foot, bent her knees, and arched her back slightly, placing her hands in front of her, one in front of the other, ready to strike or block at any moment.

Two fat spots on Fiora's chest trembled slightly, but Depp didn't even glance at them, simply saying, "General Zod has been defeated. I advise you to surrender, Ms. Fiora."

Having agreed to Clark's request, Depp no ​​longer intended to kill the other Kryptonians.

However, upon hearing this, Fiora simply laughed dismissively and said, "What are you talking about? General Zod is not someone you ants can defeat?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Fiora went all out and pounced on her.

But Depp was several dimensions faster than her; in the blink of an eye, Depp appeared beside Fiora.

He placed his finger on Fiora's firm waist and said, "I'll say it again, surrender or don't blame me for taking action."

Depp's speed surprised Fiora, but out of honor for the Kryptonian warrior, Fiora could not bring herself to surrender, even though she knew she was going to lose!

"You want me to surrender? In your next life!"

Fiora turned around, her eyes gleaming with white heat rays, as if she wanted to give Depp a good heat treatment.

But Depp's heat ray didn't need to be charged up. With a hum, Depp's heat ray struck first and pierced through Fiora's chest.

The hole in Fiora's chest was instantly scorched by the heat rays, without even a drop of blood being left.

Golden-purple lightning surged and crashed wildly within Fiora's body, making it difficult for her injuries to heal.

Depp pulled out a piece of kryptonite emitting a green glow from the new technology and stuffed it into Fiora's chest.

Depp then retrieved another restraint device from the system space; the restraint rope was made of a composite material mixed with kryptonite.

Depp tied Fiora's hands and feet together with rope, even going so far as to perform a tortoise shell bondage in a wicked manner.

Seeing Depp had tied her up tightly, Fiora said weakly and angrily, "You damned bug... why didn't you just kill me..."

"Whether I kill you or not is none of your business." Looking at the other party's arrogant expression, Depp suddenly smiled and said, "Okay, I'll tell you the truth. It's because you didn't kill Little Bat that I'm rewarding you."

Depp said emotionlessly, then walked to Bruce's side and took out a bottle of concentrated life essence.

Depp carefully pried open Bruce's mouth and poured in one-tenth of the contents.

As the effects of the concentrated life essence spread, Bruce slowly awoke.

He slowly opened his eyes and saw Depp's head above him.

"Are you awake?"

"Depp asked."

Bruce struggled to his feet, covering his face and hair with one hand, trying to regain his composure.

He asked, "What about the woman?"
