Just then, Clark and Qinuo walked in.
"Father, General Zod."
"Karl, this is your first time bringing a friend here."
Jor-El thought Qinuo was a friend Clark had made outside.
General Zod, however, bowed.
"Leader!"
This made Jor-El slightly stunned; this was the Leader who created the Planet.
"Dad, please make a copy of all the Kryptonian technology data in the Fortress of Solitude," Clark requested directly.
Jor-El didn't ask further, only nodding slightly. A few seconds later, the crystal matrix at the center of the control console began to rotate and reconfigure, and a blue-glowing S-shaped seal slowly materialized from the void.
Clark walked up to Qinuo, handed it to him, and looked at him seriously and sincerely.
"Kryptonian has been destroyed, but Kryptonian has not. Don't bully Kara, and don't make her cry again, or I won't let you off."
"So this is Kara's dowry?"
Qinuo took the seal, which carried Kryptonian's last Fire, and gently spun it between his fingertips, a playful smile gracing his lips.
"Dowry is a term from the East, but you can understand it that way if you want."
"Alright, Cousin Karl."
The two exchanged smiles, and the tense atmosphere in the air immediately lightened considerably.
After a brief conversation, Qinuo prepared to leave, but before turning around, he suddenly stopped.
"The East emphasizes reciprocity. You gave a dowry, so I must also give a betrothal gift."
Snap!
After a finger snap, Qinuo vanished.
Clark shook his head with a wry smile, having thought Qinuo was just joking.
"Clark? Where is this?"
"Karl..."
The voice from behind him made his body stiffen. He slowly turned around to see a man and a woman dressed in White Kryptonian clothing, along with his adoptive father.
In the Universe, on the far side of the Sun.
Ten Kryptonian were basking in the Sun here, floating aimlessly in the Universe, seemingly unconscious.
However, after Qinuo appeared out of thin air with Kara and General Zod, they instantly opened their eyes and, upon confirming who it was, arranged themselves in a neat line.
"Leader." x10
"Prepare for action," Qinuo's lips curved into a dangerous arc. "We're going to rob."
"Who are we robbing? What are we robbing?"
Kara asked in confusion.
"Brainiac. We're robbing Kandor. There should be approximately millions of Kryptonian there."
This answer ignited a spark of hope in the eyes of General Zod and all the Kryptonian warriors.
—
In the Universe.
A massive spaceship drifted here.
It was Brainiac 3's ship; he was searching for new Planet and cities to add to his collection.
Boom!
Suddenly, a violent tremor came from the side of the spaceship, shaking the entire hull.
Alarm bells instantly blared through every corner, and red warning lights dyed the corridors blood-red.
In the spaceship's main control room, Brainiac 3's mechanical face showed no change in expression, but dozens of holographic screens instantly unfolded before him, indicating that he was analyzing the attackers.
"Kryptonian? Has the power of ancient times reappeared?"
In ancient times, Kryptonian bodies could directly draw power from Kryptonian's Sun, possessing nearly god-like abilities.
But when the Sun became a red giant, Kryptonian lost these superpowers.
As Brainiac analyzed, General Zod led the Kryptonian warriors rampaging through the spaceship's interior. Wherever they went, thick metal walls were easily torn apart like paper.
Brainiac 3 showed no panic whatsoever; his Brain operated at an astonishing speed.
"Question: How did they suddenly appear? The alert system showed no reaction. The reason for the attack should be for that Kryptonian city, but how did they get the intelligence to know my coordinates?
Answer: There is a powerful existence that I did not detect. He is also on this spaceship now. His identity is unknown, but his power level is above this body of mine.
Plan: Conduct a test, analyze weaknesses and power. If I can defeat him, capture him as a collectible. If not, I lose a body."
These thoughts took less than 0.0001 seconds.
Brainiac 3 began sending out mechanical soldiers to block the Kryptonian.
Then he activated the spaceship's alert system, and tens of thousands of projected images constantly rotated before him.
Let me see where you are?
However, he didn't notice that less than a meter in front of him, a pale hand was waving before his eyes.
"He really can't find us?"
Kara found it amazing.
"Hmm, after all, this body of his is barely considered a single-Universe level. Although he can contend with multi-Universe levels through wisdom and technology, his inherent strength is a shortcoming."
Qinuo and Kara stood brazenly in front of Brainiac 3.
Existence erasure has an excellent effect on anything below multi-Universe level. Of course, it's not entirely safe against a super-high AI like Brainiac, so General Zod was used to attract some of his attention.
And Brainiac 3 was thus intently watching the projections, trying to find Qinuo's whereabouts.
"Aren't we going to kill him?"
Red light gleamed in Kara's eyes.
"Killing him is useless. Brainiac has many bodies. Killing this one will attract the attention of his other bodies. Let's go find Kandor first."
"Hmm."
The two turned and walked towards Brainiac's collection room.
When the heavy security door slid open, the sight that greeted them was shocking.
Hundreds of transparent force field canisters were neatly arranged, each suspending a miniature city, some still operational. Further away were various alien technologies and artifacts.
"What a great harvest!"
Aside from the city models, Qinuo took all the force field canisters into his possession.
"It's Kandor."
Carefully holding the model-sized Kandor in front of her and the ant-sized Kryptonian inside, Kara couldn't help but shed tears.
"We're home..."
Kara whispered softly, a tear forming a crystalline sphere in the zero-gravity environment, floating before her.
Qinuo caught the tear in the air, having just broken his promise to Clark.
"Let's go, let's go home together."
The two, along with General Zod and others who were in the midst of 'demolition,' vanished simultaneously.
A few minutes later, Brainiac 3 suddenly froze. System self-check showed he had been affected by some high-level mental control.
When he rushed to the collection room, the scene before him nearly crashed his proud logic core—more than half of the collection room was empty!
"Damn Kryptonian!"
The experience of being tricked once made the proud Brainiac furious. Unable to find the culprit, he could only target the Kryptonian.
The Planet of Wisdom, a mechanical Planet, Brainiac's birthplace, and where his main body resided.
At the center of the Planet, Brainiac opened his eyes.
"Scan all Universe coordinates. Activate quantum tracking protocol.
I will find you. I will scour all Universes to find you. You will be my most valuable collectible."
