Opened a martial arts school, and his eldest disciple Batman

Chapter 171 Gaining 'Superman' Power

Kara offered tea to Du Mu in confusion and called him "Master" in Chinese.

Although she learned a lot of the main language of the Earthlings during her stay on Earth, she felt that what she learned was still too superficial.

For example, now Kara doesn't understand why the earthling who rescued her from prison wants her to perform this series of rituals that touch on mysticism.

However, this kind of ritual does not exist on Krypton, nor is it dangerous, and it does not violate the Kryptonian customs and practices. For the sake of her cousin and because he is her savior, Kara obediently completed the entire process.

He was indeed a lifesaver... After a simple self-examination, Kara discovered to her horror that she seemed to have been in a state of anesthesia for a long time...

There were also many small wounds on her body where blood was drawn, which made Kara feel extremely scared.

She didn't even know how long she had been imprisoned. Thinking about the cage that those bad Earthlings had originally used to imprison her, Kara shuddered.

If it weren't for this nice Earthling, Kara didn't know how she would have gotten out of that prison.

After all, she was not a professional fighter on Krypton. Kara felt that her strength might be weaker than that of an ordinary adult male on Earth, and her knowledge reserve made it difficult for her to build a weapon from scratch. She was really hopeless.

What made Kara a little anxious and a little strange was that ever since she offered tea and bowed to him as his disciple, this Mr. Du Mu... or rather, Teacher Du Mu, looked so leisurely and never mentioned anything about his cousin.

He even looked bored and asked the black-haired boy to offer him tea.

Does this count as becoming her classmate? But up to now, Teacher Du Mu has not revealed what he wants to teach her so that she can go to the universe to find her cousin.

Du Mu drank tea and looked at the increasingly dark sky.

This is the darkest time before dawn.

Kara on the side looked impatient but was too embarrassed to say it directly.

Du Mu smiled slightly and said, "You all have worked hard tonight, come and have something to eat."

As he spoke, he waved his sleeves, and a table of steaming food appeared in the martial arts hall.

Jason and Kara looked at the food that suddenly appeared and their eyes widened at the same time.

The two were indeed hungry at this time. After all, Jason was kidnapped by the Joker, and the Joker would not prepare food for him.

To be on the safe side, the Russians only used saline solution to keep Kara alive. If she hadn't been worried about her cousin, Kara would have fainted from hunger. Not to mention her stomach, even her intestines were filled with water.

So, when the delicious Kung Pao Chicken, Squirrel Fish, Pine Nut Corn, Garlic Vermicelli Baby Cabbage, and Golden Soup Beef were placed on the table, Kara's stomach rumbled like thunder.

Kara swallowed her saliva. Looking at such tempting food, she suddenly felt a little hypoglycemic and said dizzy: "The food on Earth... looks so delicious."

Although Jason was also greedy, he was a young man after all, and was more curious about aliens.

Hearing this, he looked at Kara curiously and asked, "Do people on your planet also eat meat? You look like an Earthling, are the animals the same as on Earth?"

Kara shook her head and denied it: "No, I have never eaten meat in the past. Krypton loves peace. Not only do they not eat meat, they don't eat plants either."

"And the environment on Krypton is very harsh, and it's full of radiation caused by the brutal development of the environment in the past. But our ancestors on Krypton also used genetic programming technology to allow our cells to absorb the energy of stellar radiation to survive, so we don't eat."

"As for animals... there are many species on Krypton that do not exist on Earth, but there are indeed quite a few of them, such as dogs, cats, fish, and the like. It is precisely because our planet is very similar to Earth that my cousin and I were sent to Earth."

Jason heard this and nodded, not quite understanding.

Indeed, after all, when people on Earth use astronomical telescopes to search the sky for habitable planets, they are definitely looking for planets with environments similar to those on Earth.

No wonder the other party looks so much like an Earthling even though he is an alien.

Kara wiped her saliva, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Squirrel Fish was so bright that it seemed like it could emit lasers.

"But, these foods were conjured by the master... so it shouldn't matter, right? No life should be harmed in the process, right? I don't know why, I've never eaten them before, but they look so tempting to me."

Du Mu raised his eyebrows. His magic power couldn't create a table full of delicious food.

Not to mention the more material magic power, even the more idealistic magic power is the same.

Hogwarts is filled with banquet food every day, which is made by the house-elves in the kitchen who wave their spatulas until they smoke.

Even when Harry went to Ron's house for the first time, Ron's mother was using magic to scrub the pot. It was obvious that cooking still requires pots and pans.

As for these foods, of course, Du Mu used his magic power to condense into arms and "personally" prepared four dishes and one soup in the kitchen when the two new disciples were not paying attention.

Du Mu smiled and said, "Only when you are full can you have the energy to make progress. Hurry up and use your chopsticks... Well, I think you all know how to use chopsticks, right?"

The two young men looked at each other, hesitantly pulled out their chairs and sat down at the table. Then one of them held the chopsticks completely in his hand, while the other only picked up one chopstick.

Du Mu snapped his fingers speechlessly, and immediately the chopsticks in both of their hands turned into spoons.

Then, at Du Mu's nod, they both began to feast on the food.

Jason was a street kid who ate very quickly and without much regard for etiquette, while Kara was extremely hungry and gobbled up several dishes at once, just like a pig eating from a trough.

He hummed as he ate, "Mmm! Delicious! So delicious! How can it be so delicious! What on earth does it taste like? I've learned the language of Earth but I can't find an accurate equivalent. Krypton doesn't have a related adjective either. Woo woo woo, but it's so delicious!"

Du Mu slowly picked up the teacup and took another sip of tea... After thinking for a while, he took out the gourd from his arms and started drinking iced cola.

He looked at Kara, but he didn't expect life on Krypton to be so hard...

The daily life of ordinary people on Krypton has never been reflected in any of the works Du Mu has seen, and he doesn't know whether all Kryptonians in parallel worlds are like this, or whether it is a deviation caused by different world lines.

With this thought in mind, Krypton, which was once a technologically advanced planet, withdrew all its fronts, retreated to its home planet, and stopped competing with Zeus.

I feel sorry not only for animals but also for plants, which absorb energy solely through the weak red sun, and bask in the sun like plants to sustain life.

Giving birth does not rely on women, but on unified "production" and genetic programming. The future work, career, and life are planned from birth, rejecting all competition...

Fortunately, there is no gender issue, otherwise it would be the dream world of white leftists.

No wonder a moral saint like Superman was born.

As a general of Krypton, Zod is obviously the most powerful one with guns, but he has made no achievements in politics and even ended up in exile... This gives us a glimpse into the overall thoughts on Krypton.

But is this a good thing?

Is the direction of development of Kryptonian civilization a mature, appropriate, and suitable future for development?

Du Mu drank a sip of Coke calmly.

There’s no point in thinking about these things now.

After all, he does not yet have the power to completely control the entire development path of civilization, and cannot make decisions for the entire civilization or the human species.

Du Mu looked at the rising sun which was gradually gaining light.

Well... not yet.

The sunlight gradually poured into the martial arts hall.

Jason was fighting with Kara for a piece of fish, and the sunlight enveloped the three of them as the two spoons clashed.

Suddenly, Kara was stunned.

She slowly raised her head and looked towards the direction of the sunlight.

The direction of the seat arranged by Du Mu allowed Kara to face the first ray of morning sun rising slowly in the east.

In an instant, countless sounds were like thin and dense silk threads, piercing into my head.

Kara immediately covered her head and cried out in pain.

Jason was immediately shocked: "What's wrong? Is the food on Earth poisonous to the people on your planet?"

Du Mu on the side slowly closed his eyes and felt the changes in his body with all his heart and soul.

At the same time, he said to Jason: "Don't be nervous, Kara is just experiencing the normal phenomenon of being exposed to the sun of the earth for the first time..."

"Ah?" Jason was stunned: "Alien...alien vampire?"

Du Mu was amused and shook his head, saying, "Have you forgotten? When she was on her home planet, she relied on the sun's rays to absorb energy."

After saying this, Du Mu said nothing more.

The main thing is that it is a little difficult to tell who is speaking in my ear.

Amidst the billions of voices, Du Mu suddenly could no longer tell what was far away.

But it was only a moment, and Du Mu relied on his powerful mental strength to reorganize all the impacts on his consciousness and ignored them for the time being.

Apart from the infinite sounds, the most obvious change...is still not the body.

But it's mental power.

Du Mu could clearly feel that his mental power was beginning to control a new force field.

The control method is very similar to magnetism, but it does not mobilize electromagnetism, but the energy in one's own cells.

This should be the legendary biological force field.

Superman can lift an airplane, save people who fall from a building at supersonic speed, and carry an entire building and fly, all relying on the biological force field.

Otherwise, Superman would poke into the plane like a needle, smashing ordinary people into pieces, and the building would fall apart in mid-air due to its own weight, leaving only the two bricks in Superman's hands.

At the same time, Du Mu followed the energy source of these life fields and finally noticed the amazing changes in his own cells.

Du Mu almost didn't know how to describe it... It was as if every cell in his body had turned into a microscopic sun, constantly emitting surging energy that far exceeded Du Mu's own magical powers.

These energies continuously flow into the body from the void and into every cell.

Du Mu could clearly feel that his brain, bone marrow, bones, muscles, blood vessels, red blood cells, nerve cells, etc. were all rapidly increasing their strength in an incomprehensible way.

Is this what it feels like when a Kryptonian comes to Earth?

Is this what it feels like to be superhuman?

Du Mu slowly opened his eyes.

At this moment, he was already suspended in mid-air, sitting cross-legged.

Jason looked at Du Mu in confusion. Although he knew that his teacher could fly, he also felt that... it seemed a little different from last night.

Because this time, there was nothing supporting Du Mu from under his body.

Du Mu finally understood that the way Kryptonians fly is similar to the way Magneto controls metal to float.

That is the control of the body's force field, the most fundamental and direct "movement".

He looked at Kara who was still rolling on the ground in pain and reminded her, "Kara, focus on my words and ignore the voices of others."

Kara then gasped and came back to her senses slightly.

But then, she looked at her hands in horror and trance.

How come my arm suddenly turned into bones?
In a trance, the bones were covered with a layer of muscles and blood vessels, making them look even more disgusting and weird.

"Kara!"

Du Mu called Kara's name in a deep voice, which finally made Kara raise her head in panic and look at Du Mu.

Du Mu smiled at Kara and said, "Don't be afraid, all of this is a gift from the yellow star to the Kryptonians... You are not sick, but you have gained a talent."

As he spoke, Du Mu floated to Karado's side, stretched out his hand and said, "Come, hold my hand."

Kara was in a trance, trying hard to keep her attention from being distracted by various sounds, and placed her hand on Du Mu's palm.

In an instant, Du Mu wrapped Kara's body with his life force field, blocking all sounds that reached her ears.

At the same time, Kara's body slowly floated up.

Kara opened her eyes wide in surprise, looking at the empty ground under her feet. Although she had flown before, she clearly had the feeling of riding on something, and realized that she was riding on some kind of transportation.

But now... every inch of my body felt weightless, as if I were lighter than the air and was floating naturally.

"Teacher, what on earth is this?"

Kara looked at Du Mu in confusion.

Du Mu smiled and said, "Didn't you say that when you were on Krypton, you also basked in the sun to maintain your life? It's just that the sun on Earth is slightly younger and more energetic than that on Krypton."

Jason looked confused.

He looked down at his hands and thought to himself that they were all about absorbing energy. Eating calves and dead cows didn't seem to make much of a difference to the people on Earth, right?

Du Mu took Kara's hand and slowly floated up, allowing himself and his apprentice to be completely bathed in the light of the morning sun.

"Your hearing does not come from the vibration of the air, but from the radiation of the life force field... Focus your mind and gather all the life force fields into your body instead of radiating them out, and you will temporarily stop hearing these sounds."

Kara took a deep breath. Although she didn't know what it meant to concentrate her mind, she was able to focus completely on herself and her surroundings.

Du Mu nodded. Kara learned very quickly... after all, it was the ability to adapt, not the ability to train.

Superman's hearing is indeed very interesting. Du Mu had never thought about it carefully in the past. He thought it was simply like what he did in the past, able to hear the smallest fluctuations in the air.

But now it seems that this is not the case, because the vibration fluctuations in the air in the same space are limited.

No matter how good your hearing is, it is impossible to hear the sound directly from one end of the earth to the other end. This is not a hearing problem. The sound has not even reached you yet, so there is no point in hearing it.

But after the Kryptonians obtained an extremely powerful life force field, they could even directly cover the earth with the force field to receive those sound vibrations, thus capturing all the sounds of the earth at a time far exceeding the speed of sound propagation.

Yes, it directly covers the entire earth... The life force field of Kryptonians is so powerful.

In other words, the physical body as the source of energy for the life field is just that powerful.

No wonder we've seen several pictures of Superman moving a planet or the earth. This is the same principle he uses to save the plane. Otherwise, no matter how strong Superman is, he can only pierce through the earth and cannot move it at all.

Du Mu raised his head, looked at the sun, and squinted his eyes slightly.

I... seem to finally have the ability to compete with that guy hidden in this solar system.

But Du Mu was not in a hurry, because his strength was growing exponentially, and the later he confronted the person behind the scenes, the greater his chances of winning.

Since the other party hasn't shown up yet, don't blame yourself for continuing to use the golden finger to accumulate strength.

After all, why go into danger when you can crush the situation?

Kara took a deep breath and slowly opened her eyes.

In Du Mu's perception, she finally gathered her originally disordered and chaotic mental power and maintained it only on the surface of her body.

This should also be the daily state of the movie version of Superman.

Du Mu has read the deleted script of "Superman vs. Batman". At that time, someone kidnapped Superman's mother, and Superman planned to use his super hearing to find her, but was immediately tortured by the chaos in the whole city and could not concentrate. So he went to Batman for help... and then got beaten up.

Putting aside the settings of Superman in comics and animations, at least in the movie version, Superman, as a Kryptonian, really cannot process so much information at the same time.

Not to mention the entire earth, even all the voices in Gotham City are difficult to deal with. He can't even find his adoptive mother. It's really embarrassing.

You know, Du Mu turned into a whale early this morning and was able to use his mental power to scan the entire Gotham City, capturing and killing all the clowns.

Therefore, in this world that is infinitely close to the film and television version, although the sun has given the Kryptonians countless powers, it does not have the so-called "super brain" in the comic setting.

Du Mu also lowered his head, looked at his hands, and clenched his fists slightly.

There is something indescribably natural about this growth in strength... It doesn't feel like 'growth', but rather like an 'unlocking' switch.

To the extent that Du Mu could only summarize the difference in senses, and still didn't know how powerful he was.

Du Mu shook his head, patted Kara's shoulder, and the two of them immediately disappeared on the Dashun side.

Jason was left alone in the training ground, staring blankly at the sky.

----

In Russia, the sky was already dim at this time, illuminating countless snow-capped mountains into shining golden mountains.

Such a beautiful scenery actually replaced the surprise of the change in environment for a moment and attracted Karado's attention.

"gorgeous……"

Kara was high in the sky, staring at the beautiful scenery in front of her.

On Krypton, everything is scarlet, and the stars in the sky emit a dead aura. The surface of Krypton is covered with red soil that has lost its nutrients, and the core of the earth occasionally erupts with terrifying radiation.

It was an old, dead star.

So much so that when Kara witnessed the beauty of the Earth for the first time, she could immediately feel the lush vitality of this planet.

This even made Kara feel more moved than the delicious food she had eaten before.

Of course, it might also be because she was full.

Du Mu speculated that although Kryptonians can rely on stellar radiation to provide energy for their bodies, they rely on "cloning" and "industrial production" to reproduce their offspring. In order to maintain the same characteristics as the previous generation, they will definitely not remove organs in this area.

So even though the Kryptonians haven't eaten in a long time, they can still eat... they just don't have a big appetite, after all, their real source of energy is stellar radiation.

Kara took a deep breath, clenched her fists, and remembered the teachings of her elders.

The Earth is a young planet... My cousin and I must protect this place and guide humanity so that they don't repeat the mistakes of Krypton.

Well, Kara thought of this and couldn't help but glance at Du Mu.

He said he wanted to guide mankind, but as soon as he woke up on Earth, he was guided in various ways.

Other information is fine, but Kara can't figure out how Teacher Du Mu knows how Kryptonians use their abilities?
Could it be... that this was also learned from a parallel world?

It was a little far-fetched, but it was the only reasonable guess Kara could come up with.

Du Mu smiled at Kara and said, "Let's go and take a look around the universe."

Kara: “Huh?”

Kara was a little dumbfounded. Although she didn't know why she could suddenly hear so many sounds, nor why she could suddenly fly, she learned from Teacher Du Mu that this was brought to the Kryptonians by the yellow star.

Are we going to use our body as a spaceship when we don’t even understand how much the body has changed?

Kara hesitated and smiled awkwardly: "Um... Teacher Du Mu, you should have seen the methods of using these abilities in a parallel world, right? But the situations in different worlds should be different. What if I can't be born in this universe... Ahhhh!!"

Du Mu simply grabbed Kara's arm and flew towards the sun.

This feeling of controlling the life force field and moving directly in the spatial sense made Du Mu extremely satisfied.

Because of the life force field, it could even protect the air... After he broke through the sound barrier, the air finally stopped making that piercing scream.

However, such a large object moving at high speed will inevitably stir up the air, so the air at a slightly farther distance will still make a whistling sound, but it is only equivalent to the whistling of a strong wind.

Kara looked up at Du Mu in panic, then looked down at the earth that was getting farther and farther away. She could clearly feel the air around her becoming thinner, and she became more and more panicked.

Du Mu said calmly: "Use the life force field to protect your mouth. You just need a breathing habit to soothe yourself. In fact, under the shining of the stars, you don't need oxygen to supply energy to your body."

Kara covered her mouth and tried holding her breath, but found it difficult to accept and get used to.

But if you just surround the body with a life force field, allowing some air to remain on the surface of the body and letting the lungs have some sense of participation, it can still be done easily.

It was at this moment...the horizon in the distance became more and more curved.

Until one moment, when Kara lowered her head, she could see the entire sunny side of the sphere.

Can I really... fly in the universe?
Kara could hardly believe what she saw and was extremely shocked.

But the most shocking thing was...Teacher Du Mu was also standing beside him without any protection.

Kara opened her eyes wide and said in disbelief: "Teacher Du Mu...you, are you also a fellow Kryptonian? No, are you a Kryptonian from a parallel world?"

Du Mu smiled and shook his head: "No... I am a pure earthling, I just know a few tricks."

What a magical little trick.

Appearing in the universe without protection is also considered a trick?
But at this moment, Kara suddenly realized that the two of them could actually talk in the universe.

Du Mu was not surprised. After all, the air that vibrated the sound was bound around the body by the life force field, and the Kryptonians' hearing did not rely on medium transmission, so they could naturally communicate normally in the universe.

But Kara hadn't thought these questions through yet. In her opinion, it was common sense that no sound could be heard in the universe. She suddenly scratched her head in discomfort.

She couldn't help but wonder, was everything in front of her fake, just a dream, and was she actually still lying in the hibernation capsule and hadn't woken up yet, and hadn't even arrived on Earth yet?
But Du Mu had already taken out an envelope from his arms.

In Du Mu's hand, the envelope instantly turned into a wearable origami compass with a floating pointer on it.

On the compass below the needle, it was written 'A868F Graystone Star, Recipient: Kal-El'.

Seeing the familiar name, Kara's eyes suddenly lit up. She stretched out her hands and respectfully took the origami compass from Du Mu.

She looked at the writing on the compass and said excitedly, "Teacher Du Mu, this...can I rely on it to find Kal-El?"

Du Mu nodded.

Although he also wanted Kara to continue to bask in the sun in the martial arts gym for a few more days... after all, in movies and TV shows similar to this world, Zod made it very clear that the Superman he captured, who was still in baby form, was killed by having his blood drawn.

Therefore, letting Kara look for her cousin as soon as she obtains superpowers is the most important thing that Du Mu, a master who knows the information, should consider for his disciple.

But in the movie, Zod will come to Earth in eight years, but the Superman who originally stopped Zod is more than eight years old...

We can only hope that the world line is different and see if the Superman of this universe can survive.

Du Mu told Kara these speculations, and Kara felt a pang in her heart when she heard it.

At the same time, she looked at Du Mu with gratitude, and bowed deeply to Du Mu, imitating the etiquette of the Earthlings.

"Thank you, Teacher Du Mu!"

"Whether it's saving me, guiding me to master my super powers, or now giving me the tools to go straight to my cousin's location."

"I will always remember your kindness!"

Du Mu looked at Kara's head and smiled.

Then he looked down at the Earth... and saw a small red dot flying quickly into the sky from the Russian plate.

Kara bowed with her eyes closed in genuine gratitude, so she didn't notice the scene.

When she calmed down and looked up again, she was slightly stunned.

Because Du Mu was holding a blue and red battle robe in his hand.

On the chest of this battle robe, there is an inverted pentagon with a huge 'S' pattern in the middle.

It was her very own Kryptonian uniform on her spaceship.

Under the cover of the huge life force field that is difficult to describe for Kryptonians, Du Mu can control this uniform and fly it directly from the Russian military base even though it is thousands of miles away.

This is something that even the Kryptonians themselves cannot do... they do not have the relevant skills and abilities to manipulate energy.

When Kara saw this scene, she was finally convinced that Teacher Du Mu might not really be a Kryptonian.

Because the other party...maybe even better than the Kryptonians.
