I'm doing bidirectional science popularization in American comics

Having received Depp's message, Zod quickly donned his battle suit and rushed to the training ground.

Knowing the situation beforehand, Zod didn't waste any words. Instead, he grabbed the microphone from the training platform and shouted, "Quiet!"

Swish!

Everyone immediately stopped talking to each other and turned to look at Zod.

"Cough cough!"

Zod coughed twice, and was about to speak when the crowd below the stage couldn't contain their excitement and started talking again.

Just as Zod was looking at the thousands of Kryptonian warriors below the stage with the expression of an air conditioning technician, Depp snatched the microphone and said softly, "Quiet."

Swish swish!

Swish swish!

Depp's words immediately drew the attention of all the Kryptonian warriors, and this time, after receiving Depp's order, they dared not utter a sound.

Looking at the Kryptonian warriors before him, who were completely silent and frozen in place, Zod's mentality completely collapsed.

Are you kidding me?!

Whose army are you anyway?

Do you even know who your general is?

Does Zod have any standing in your hearts anymore?!

Damn it, you guys are the worst Kryptonian warriors I've ever led!

However, Depp, standing to the side, didn't care about Zod's feelings.

They even felt incredibly happy inside.

After all, Zod, you're just their leader, but what about me, Depp?

I am their father!

They are the one and only true God, an inviolable force deep within their genes!

Depp cleared his throat twice and said, "Everyone, please be quiet. Let General Zod say a few words first."

Chapter 384 S

On the training platform, Zod looked at Depp with a strange expression, as if a million Clarks were roaring through his mind.

This Kryptonian leader can't be a kingpin for even a day!

Zod, barely suppressing his urge to shoot these brats to death with a single heat ray, took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly, and said:

"You...are all here to participate in the battle to aid Earth?"

"Yes!"

Below the stage, numerous Kryptonian warriors spoke in unison, creating a sound wave that shook the entire arena.

Upon hearing this, Zod persisted, asking, "Do we really have to go?"

"Yes, we must go! We must help Mr. Depp take back Earth!"

The Kryptonian warriors shouted in unison again, completely disregarding whether Zod was on the verge of exploding.

Zod clutched his aching heart and said weakly, "To go to Earth, you must have the ability to withstand the energy of the yellow sun, otherwise you will die directly in Earth's atmosphere."

"Those of you who did not receive proof of the yellow sun's energy can go back now; you are not qualified to participate in this mission."

"But....."

Hearing Zod's words, many Kryptonian warriors spoke up unwillingly, but Zod interrupted them directly: "Don't fucking talk nonsense to me. If you don't have proof, get out of here! Otherwise, I'll fire you all!"

However, even though Zod was hysterical, the Kryptonian warriors still hesitated.

Until Depp shouted to the audience, "Warriors who can't withstand the yellow sun's rays, go back. If you force your way to Earth, you'll just be throwing your lives away."

Upon hearing Depp's words, the Kryptonian warriors immediately hung their heads in dejection and prepared to leave the arena.

But just then, some clever idiot shouted again, "But... they can wear Kryptonian suits and fly Kryptonian spaceships to Earth!"

"Hiss~~~~"

Depp looked at Zod, thinking to himself that the kid was quite clever: "General Zod, how about... we send these soldiers to Earth in their suits?"

Upon hearing this, Zod immediately locked his gaze on the Kryptonian warrior who had just spoken out of turn, his murderous intent blatantly obvious.

"This child might be good for making soup."

Looking at Zod's expression, Depp suddenly thought of this sentence and almost couldn't help but laugh.

Depp and Zod then finalized the next steps.

Kryptonian warriors capable of withstanding the yellow sun traveled directly to Earth through Depp's portal.

Unable to withstand the yellow sun, the Kryptonian warriors donned their battle suits, boarded their spaceships, and then traveled to Earth through a portal.

As for the travel time to Earth...

“Zod, I will notify you as soon as I am ready,” Depp said before leaving Krypton. “Ten minutes after that, I will open a portal in the training grounds. Then you can have these warriors go directly to Earth through the portal.”

"Okay, no problem, I understand." Zod waved his hand expressionlessly and said, "Goodbye, don't bother seeing me out!"

As he watched Depp leave through the portal, Zod leaped up and rushed into his private training room the instant the portal closed.

Finally, a series of terrifying, tooth-wrenching sounds of smashing and looting emanated from within.

Clearly, what had just happened had driven Zod to the brink of collapse and filled him with immense anger.

However, after venting his anger, Zod gradually calmed down, sat cross-legged on the ground, and began to carefully analyze the cause and effect of what had happened.

After racking his brains to no avail, Depp even summoned the bald man who was his chief research expert and strategist.

The two sat cross-legged facing each other, and after analyzing the situation for a long time, a terrifying hypothesis came out of the bald man's mouth.

"Perhaps... I mean perhaps, that guy named Depp tampered with the Kryptonian Codex." The bald man swallowed, wiped his sweaty, shiny head, and said in a slightly trembling voice, "Maybe, in addition to the prohibition against betraying Krypton, the underlying logic of the Kryptonian Codex has added another rule."

"Another one?" Zod frowned and asked, "You mean... an additional underlying genetic imprint that requires obedience to Depp's orders?"

"Yes...yes."

The bald man wiped the sweat from his head again.

After all, this is a very bold guess.

Very, extremely bold!

After saying that, the bald man lowered his head and remained silent.

He knew what this meant for General Zod in front of him, and he also knew that General Zod was on the verge of exploding.

If you don't want to be accidentally killed by Zod, you'd better shut up, meditate, and think of yourself as a leaf, a blade of grass, or a wisp of air.

Upon hearing this, Zod clenched his fists, shook his head repeatedly, and finally kept repeating the same sentence.

"This is impossible...this is impossible...this is impossible..."

He couldn't accept that all his hard work over the past decade had only benefited Depp!

However, if Depp hadn't given him the Kryptonian Codex, the new Kryptonian would never have been able to be rebuilt.

Finally, Zod sighed helplessly and said, "My father once told me that everything has its own rules. Every gift comes with a price. Perhaps the price of rebuilding New Krypton is that Krypton will henceforth become Depp's personal property."

Looking at Depp, who seemed to have resigned himself to his fate and accepted the reality before him, the bald man wiped the sweat from his brow and let out a long sigh.

Meanwhile, in some unknown location on New Krypton, Depp is sprinting at breakneck speed.

In fact, Depp didn't actually return to Earth. Instead, while pretending to return, he opened a portal and traveled to a certain place on New Krypton.

Depp then began running at breakneck speed across Krypton, attempting to locate the Kryptonian Codex.

With the Speed ​​Force at his disposal, Depp used his incredible speed and X-ray vision to quickly pinpoint the location of the Kryptonian Codex.

Depp burst in without hindrance, looked at the familiar Kryptonian tome before him, and raised his hands.

"Hey, beautiful little thing, I'm back again."

Johnny Depp, who already knew how to modify and manipulate the Kryptonian Codex, even put on the Mirror of Introduction.

Modifying the Kryptonian Codex is no different from playing a game twice while referring to a walkthrough.

Depp quickly withdrew his hands, wiped the sweat from his face, and revealed a satisfied smile.

"Now, you've become like me again, Kryptonian Codex."

After doing all this, Depp opened a portal and returned to Kamar-Taj.

Inside the sanctuary of Kamar-Taj, numerous DC superheroes had already emerged from their resting rooms.

Bruce stepped out of the main hall, looked at the howling wind and heavy snow ahead, and said in a low voice, "This place seems to be somewhere in the Himalayas, but I have never found it before."

An unknown village located in the Himalayas was a complete surprise to Bruce.

After all, he had studied under Rashomon for a long time in the Himalayas and ultimately destroyed the "Assassin's Guild" that attempted to destroy Gotham.

Although it wasn't the real Rashomon, and the League of Assassins wasn't completely wiped out by Bruce, it still left an indelible mark on the Dark Knight of Gotham.

"You seem lost, young man."

The Ancient One's voice came from beside Bruce, and her figure appeared as well.

Bruce turned his head and realized that it was the female monk who had helped him and Depp defend Gotham.

Strangely enough, although the female monk had no hair, Bruce did not find her at all abrupt or strange.

On the contrary, the aura emanating from the other person made Bruce feel very at ease.

“I don’t think I can be called a young man anymore, Ancient One,” Bruce said. “I’m over forty years old this year, and I’ve lived more than half my life.”

"If you knew my age, you would realize that I am still very young."

The Ancient One stood side by side with Bruce, smiling as she said, "You're confused, Bruce. And I don't agree with you. You haven't lived more than half your life. On the contrary, I think your life has never even begun."

"Never started?"

Bruce was puzzled.

The Ancient One said calmly, "That's right. Although I can't see your past and future, and have only heard some things from Depp, I still know one thing."
