Superman Marvel Adventures

Afterwards, Adam drove Christine to Dawn Film Company, as he had acquired Christine's agency. He then took Christine to meet her stunt double. Seeing that it was almost time, Christine said goodbye to Adam and left the Dawn Building.

Adam said goodbye to Christine and returned to his office. He sat down at his desk and started reading the newspaper. He saw a news article about a young man who loved superheroes. He had bought some equipment and got into a fight with some thugs. He was seriously injured and hospitalized. This incident had generated a lot of public opinion.

Adam smiled slightly after seeing this and said, "Heh, this young man has something wrong with his head."

He didn't think highly of the young man. Although his intentions were good, there was a prerequisite for becoming a superhero: one had to be truly capable! You had to have real skills. Don't take on a job you're not qualified for. That's common sense. If he didn't have these superpowers, Adam might only be donating money to charity galas to help those in need, rather than becoming a superhero.

Of course, this is just Adam's own perspective, and he became a superhero for these reasons—because with ability comes responsibility. There's no right or wrong answer, but it reveals Adam's own view on the superhero concept.

Adam never dreamed that this ordinary person with no special abilities—not a retired soldier, not a rich kid with high intelligence, and not a young man who gained superpowers through a fortuitous encounter—would have such a profound impact on him, making him truly realize what a real superhero is.

Of course, that's a story for another time.

Adam is facing a difficult situation. After working at the company for a few hours, he suddenly received bad news: Christine is missing. It's as if she vanished from the face of the earth; she simply disappeared.

This instantly enraged Adam, who ordered Athena to hack into all the surveillance equipment to investigate Christine's whereabouts. The investigation eventually revealed that Christine had voluntarily gone with someone, which puzzled Adam greatly, as no one could contact Christine. If there was anything urgent, Christine should have told him. Could the other party be a mutant? Adam suddenly had a suspicion.

After that, it's time to give Christine a cheat code, since without one, the distance between Christine and Adam will affect their relationship.

Guess what kind of special abilities I'll give Christine?

As Adam sat in his office, secretly marveling at world peace, he suddenly received news that Christine had gone missing! The blow to Adam was unimaginable; he couldn't believe that someone would kidnap Christine knowing his identity. This instantly enraged Adam, and the murderous intent churning within him could no longer be contained.

"Athena, hack into all the surveillance equipment immediately and find out exactly where Christine is."

Upon hearing this, Athena immediately took action, pulling up a video and saying, "Master, look at this video. Miss Christine went with that person entirely voluntarily, but no matter how they filmed, they couldn't capture his appearance. It's very strange. Could it be the work of a mutant?"

"Athena!" Adam gritted his teeth and said, "Activate the tracker on Christine. I need to know Christine's location!"

Athena immediately replied, "Yes, Master, I'll activate it right away!" She then activated the tracker on Christine's body. Adam had placed it in Christine's necklace just in case, and she never expected to need it today.

Soon, a scene appeared before Adam's eyes: a red dot moving at an illogical speed, reaching Greece in the blink of an eye, and then disappearing.

Athena frowned and asked, "Huh, it's disappeared? How could that be? What happened? Master, I can't sense the tracker's location anymore."

After hearing this, Adam said, "Alright, Athena, it's good to know the approximate location. I'll handle the rest. Hmph. I'll make those who kidnapped Christine regret it! Oh, and tell Tony that Christine and I went out together. Don't let him worry about us."

Athena nodded and said, "I understand, I'll inform them right away. Master, please be careful as well."

Adam nodded, changed into his uniform, and flew out of the window.

------------------------------------------------------------

A few hours earlier, after saying goodbye to Adam, Christine arrived at the audition location with her team. Having significantly improved her acting skills, Christine easily secured the lead role. Eager to share the good news with Adam, Christine decided to have her agent stay behind to discuss the details with the other person, while she went home first.

Of course, the statement that she was going back alone did not mean she was actually alone; rather, she had several bodyguards sent by the company with her. Therefore, Christine did not need to worry about her safety. Just then, as Christine was about to leave, she suddenly saw someone she shouldn't have seen.

The man stood not far from Christine, dressed in a black butler's uniform. He smiled slightly and bowed to Christine, making Christine realize in an instant that what she was seeing was definitely not an illusion. So what exactly was going on?

"If you want to know the answer, come with me. It's time for you to know everything." The butler's voice reached Christine's ears very clearly.

Christine couldn't help but ask, "What's the truth? What is it?"

The bodyguard protecting Christine noticed her suddenly stop, gazing into the distance and muttering to herself. He frowned, glanced around to make sure nothing was amiss, and asked疑惑地问道, "Miss Christine, what's wrong?"

Christine snapped out of her daze and asked, "Didn't you hear me?"

The bodyguard shook his head and asked, "What exactly happened?"

Just as Christine was about to say what she had heard, the old butler spoke again.

“Don’t tell them, Christine. Knowing all this would be devastating for them. If you want to know who your parents really are, if you want to know why your adoptive mother suddenly disappeared, come with me.”

Christine was stunned upon hearing this. Her parents' identities? Parents? This was a distant concept for Christine. She couldn't remember what her parents looked like at all; there weren't even any photos of them in her home. She had always believed her adoptive mother was her biological mother, but that wasn't true. Moreover, after discovering she wasn't her adoptive mother's biological daughter, her adoptive mother disappeared. If it weren't for the old housekeeper, she certainly wouldn't be alive today. And for some reason, she didn't miss her adoptive mother as much as she had imagined. If the old housekeeper hadn't mentioned her adoptive mother today, she might have completely forgotten about her. It was all very strange.

What terrified her most was that the old butler had been dead for five years. He had died peacefully in the hospital when she was fourteen, and Christine was heartbroken for a long time.

Christine murmured, "How could you possibly be here? Who are you? Are you a ghost?"

The old butler smiled slightly and said, "Hehe, don't panic, Christine. I am not a ghost. I am a servant of the gods, here today to take you back to meet your parents."

Christine asked in confusion, "My parents? Divine servants? What exactly is going on?"

The old butler smiled slightly and said, "You'll understand all of this once you come with me. Don't worry, I won't harm you. You should trust me."

Christine hesitated slightly after hearing this, but couldn't suppress her curiosity, so she nodded and said, "Okay, but I'll tell everyone first, and then I'll go with you."

The old butler shook his head and said, "You can't tell them about this, Christine. They're not qualified to know these things yet. And don't worry, you'll be back soon."

Christine gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I'll go with you."

She believed the old man wouldn't harm her. Although she didn't know why he, who was supposed to be dead, would appear before her, she still didn't believe he would repay her. More importantly, she had a premonition that she had to go with the old butler, as this would change her fate.

The old man smiled slightly and said, "Hehe, come on, Christine." After saying that, he gently tapped the ground with his wooden cane, and a black car suddenly appeared behind the old man. However, everyone walking on the road seemed not to have seen this scene, wondering if they thought the car had been parked there before.

Christine opened her mouth slightly, her face full of surprise, and said, "My God, what on earth is going on?"

The old butler smiled and said, "Don't be surprised, Christine. When we get back there, you'll be able to do the same. Come on, your parents have been waiting for this day for a long time."

Christine nodded slightly, then prepared to say something to the bodyguards, but noticed they seemed quite anxious and were searching for her. This startled her again, and she glanced at the old butler with a puzzled look.

The old butler said, "When you're willing to come back with me, you'll already be living in a different world from them. Heh, let's go, your parents are getting impatient."

Christine gritted her teeth after hearing this. Since she had already made up her mind, she wouldn't regret it. That was Christine's personality. So she nodded and said, "Okay, let's go!" After saying that, she walked to the car door, looked at the anxious bodyguard, silently apologized, and then got in.

After seeing this, the old butler also got into the car and said, "Christine, would you please fasten your seatbelt?"

Christine nodded and fastened her seatbelt. Suddenly, she jolted violently, realizing the vehicle was moving at a speed far exceeding her comprehension. It was weaving through traffic at an absurd pace, and in the blink of an eye, they were at the beach, then, with Christine screaming, it drove directly into the sea.

Hearing Christine's scream, the old butler shook his head slightly and said, "This won't do, Miss Christine. My ears are almost deafened by your scream. Relax, relax."

Christine, however, refused to listen to the old butler and kept shouting, "I don't want to go! I don't want to go anymore! To hell with my parents! Let me go back! Damn it! I somehow ended up going with you, and you've been dead for five years! Am I going to die too? Damn it! What am I going to do? Adam, where are you? Adam! Help! You old madman, let me go!!!" She then tried to open the car door but found it wouldn't open.

After hearing this, the old butler sighed and said, "Alas, I really shouldn't have let you act in movies in the first place. Look at you, you were such a lady just now, and in the blink of an eye you've turned into a little delinquent. Honestly, my ears can't take it anymore." After saying that, he took a dark chocolate from his pocket and put it directly into Christine's mouth, forcing the screaming Christine to swallow it. Her eyes widened and she stopped screaming.

"What is this thing? Why are you giving me such strange food? What do you want from me?"

The old butler said calmly, "Don't worry, this is chocolate made from calming herbs. It's delicious. How are you feeling? Are you feeling better? I told you I would take you to meet your parents. Don't worry, I won't break my promise. Besides, I'm already thousands of years old. I'm past the age of using chocolate to trick little girls!"

Ps:

My favorites have been lost again. Oh well, I've given up hope. I'll just keep updating until the end and the settlement period.

Chapter 101 Christine's Parents

Follow "ead" for more support!

Having secured the lead role in the movie, Christine prepares to return and share her joy with Adam. However, she unexpectedly encounters someone she never dreamed of on the road—someone who shouldn't exist in this world: the old housekeeper who raised her, the man who had been dead for five years.

What surprised her even more was that the old man had returned to take her back to see his parents. This made her waver for a moment, because her intuition told her that this meeting was very important and could change her destiny.

Christine's intuition was always very accurate, so she decided to go back with the old butler to see her parents and confront them about why they had abandoned her to her adoptive mother and the old butler instead of raising her themselves, and why her adoptive mother had disappeared without a trace, and why no one believed in her existence.

And so, Christine got into the car that the old butler magically produced, and drove recklessly all the way to the bottom of the sea. Christine immediately regretted her impulsiveness and recklessness and couldn't help but curse loudly.

Seeing Christine's expression, the old butler sighed, tossed a chocolate into her mouth, and said, "Alright, Christine, you should be able to sense that I won't harm you."

Indeed, Christine possesses a special ability to vaguely sense whether someone is hostile towards her. This is why she was able to discover and accept Adam's hidden identity so quickly. After all, she herself has some secrets she hasn't told Adam, so how could she blame Adam for keeping them from her?

Christine took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I didn't sense any hostility from you, but you have to understand how I, a girl living in the 21st century, feel when I suddenly see this kind of transportation that only exists in fairy tales."

The old butler shrugged and said, "Alright, I understand."

Christine asked, "Can you tell me who my parents are? And what happened to Marina? Why did she suddenly disappear? Does it really matter that I found out she's not my mother?"

The old butler paused, then asked, "Do you remember what happened back then? How did you know she wasn't your mother?"

After listening, Christine thought for a while, shook her head, and said, "I can't remember right now. If I hadn't met you today, I might have completely forgotten Marina. What exactly happened?"

After listening, the old butler said calmly, "Your birth was forbidden! Marina was ordered by a powerful being to kill you, but she brought you here instead. Although she ultimately died from the curse, she gave me time to find you."

Christine asked, "My birth was forbidden? Who forbade it?"

The old butler shook his head and said, "I cannot say that person's name because he left his mark on me and everyone like me. Although he cannot usually sense us, he will sense it once we say his name out loud. If he sees you, he will send down lightning to destroy you, so I cannot say his name."

Christine scoffed, "Fine, since you can't say his name, I won't ask anymore. But you have to tell me why I forgot about Marina. Is her death related to me?" She vaguely sensed that things seemed to be as she had imagined, and she began to feel extremely distressed.

The old butler sighed softly. He said, "Alright, stop overthinking. Her death has nothing to do with you. She was cursed when she left that place. It has nothing to do with you revealing her identity; it was just a coincidence. And you forgot about her because I tested the spell on you, making you forget what happened that day."

Christine asked疑惑地问道, "Why? Is there something I can't know?"

The old butler shook his head and said, "No, it's because of Marina's death that you awakened your abilities too early. In the end, I had to use all my strength to reseal your abilities. That's why I can only stay in this world for seven years. I spent a lot of my power, and if I don't go back, I might really die."

Upon hearing this, Christine immediately said, "So that's why you faked your death and left here five years ago? Right?"

The old butler smiled apologetically and said, "Yes, I'm sorry, I hurt you back then, but I had no choice but to leave."

Christine pouted and said, "Fine, I forgive you. Now, can you tell me why I'm supposedly not allowed to exist?"

The old butler said softly, "It's because of your parents' identities!"

Christine asked in confusion, "My parents' identities? Who are my parents? Why is my existence not allowed?"

The old steward explained, "Your parents were both powerful gods! But unfortunately, they were not from the same faction, so their union was not allowed, especially since their divine positions were extremely similar. The other gods were afraid that you, as their offspring, would possess power surpassing theirs, which is why you were not allowed to live."

Christine exclaimed in surprise, "You mean my parents are gods? Ha! That's ridiculous! How could that be?"

The old butler smiled slightly and said, "Why is it impossible? Since you can accept an old man who died five years ago reappearing in front of you, accept a car that can drive underwater, and accept a superhero as your boyfriend, then why can't you accept having two parents who are like gods?"

Christine blushed slightly and said, "You know Adam is my boyfriend?"

The old butler laughed heartily and said, "It's not just me, even your parents know about him. Your father almost ran out to fight him to the death. Haha, it's been a long time since I've seen your father so anxious."

Christine snorted, "Hmph, he wouldn't dare. By the way, since you say my parents are gods, then who exactly are they?"

With a hint of reverence, the old steward said, "Your father is Helios, the sun god, and your mother is Sur, the sun goddess!"

Christine was immediately shocked upon hearing this, and said, "What? Helios, the sun god? Sur, the sun goddess? So it turns out that one of them is a god of Mount Olympus and the other is a god of the Norse pantheon."

The old butler nodded and said, "That's right, that's why your existence is not allowed. But don't worry, that was hundreds of years ago. Now, the rulers on both sides have forgotten your existence. They think you are dead. That's why I was able to come and pick you up, and also why your parents secretly came to this world to meet you."

Christine was speechless with surprise. She clearly hadn't expected that her background would hold such a big secret. However, on the other hand, she felt a little smug. With this identity, perhaps she could really help Adam in the future, instead of just watching him fight against a terrifying being like the Hulk with worry.

"If I go back this time, will I be able to come back?"

The old butler smiled slightly and said, "Of course. The reason I came to pick you up this time is because the God Lord obtained some clues from the Goddess of Prophecy, clues that allow you to legitimately inherit his and your mother's divine positions. And this clue seems to be your boyfriend, but the process seems to be full of danger and uncertainty. So, taking advantage of that one's slumber, the God Lord and your mother secretly came to Greece in this world. They plan to use divine power to help you awaken the power of your divine veins and train you to become a true goddess. In this way, you can also help your boyfriend and survive the difficulties ahead."
