Opened a martial arts school, and his eldest disciple Batman

Chapter 234: Krypton Siege
When Kara woke up from her deep sleep, she felt like she had slept for a whole year.

She got up from the bed and came to the training ground in a daze, and saw a familiar figure.

"Jason!"

Kara said in surprise.

Jason also smiled and said to Kara, "Welcome back, Kara. I heard from Brother Banner that you slept for a whole day and night. You must be exhausted, right? Even for your Kryptonian physique."

It turns out that I slept for a whole day and night... No wonder it was still daylight when I woke up.

However, as she gradually regained consciousness, Kara suddenly remembered something. She looked around the arena and said anxiously, "By the way, Jason, have you seen... have you seen a city in a can? It's a city on my home planet Krypton. It was taken away by a man named Brainiac."

Jason shook his head slightly, raised his hand and said soothingly: "You are still a little incoherent, go wash your face, don't worry, the city on your home planet is very safe..."

After Jason learned from Batman that Kara had returned, he hurried to the martial arts gym through the Crime Alley portal in the Batcave.

However, he did not expect that Kara had not woken up until the master had settled all the alien civilizations and returned.

Jason looked at Kara and couldn't help asking, "By the way, did you... did you find your cousin?"

Only Kara, her master and Jason knew that Kara went to the universe to look for her cousin. Batman and Banner only knew that they had a Kryptonian female junior sister who had just returned to the martial arts gym.

Only Jason, who had followed Du Mu and experienced the process of his master rescuing Kara, knew what Kara was going to do when she left.

Kara's expression darkened and she shook her head slightly.

"He...he has been intercepted and killed by a general who was once exiled from our planet."

"Karl is dead, and I have no relatives anymore."

Jason couldn't help but fall silent, feeling extremely heavy-hearted.

The reason why he cares about this matter is that he has no other family members, so he can empathize and expect Kara to be able to save his relatives.

But unexpectedly, Kara failed.

There was no longer any blood connection in the world, and Jason understood that very well.

Later, before he met his master and got to know fellow disciples from other worlds, he was like a raft drifting in the torrent of the world. No matter how vast the world was, the feeling of loneliness that had no connection with him at all had become a part of Jason's character deep in his heart.

It was only after being with Du Mu, seeing the wider world and meeting different friends, that Jason broke free from the shackles of his heart and his personality became what it is today.

Jason stood with Kara in silence for a long time, until Du Mu appeared and broke their silent mourning for Karl.

"Master."

Kara looked at Du Mu who was walking from the side yard and called out softly.

After meeting Jason again, she recalled her cousin's situation, which diluted the ecstasy of discovering that there were still seven million compatriots alive on the mother planet.

Although this matter is still worth being happy about... Kara's emotions have calmed down and she no longer seems so concerned.

Du Mu nodded slightly to Kara: "I have found a new planet for Kando to settle. From now on, it will be the new Krypton. Do you want to go and have a look?"

Kara was slightly stunned.

Did she hear it right? Or did she misunderstand something?
Didn’t Jason say that he had only slept for a day and a night?

How come when I woke up, there was even a new Krypton?
But Du Mu's manner of speaking was so natural, as if it was a matter of course, which made Kara wonder if she would appear stupid if she frightened the young girl. Was there something she had misunderstood?

So Kara remained somewhat confused and followed Du Mu out of the portal.

Jason naturally followed closely behind, as he was also very curious about the life of the people on Kara's home planet.

The world changed in an instant.

The first thing that caught Kara's eyes was the red sun hanging high in the sky. It was not dazzling at all, but very gentle.

The second glance was the extremely familiar urban architectural style, the clothing of the people passing by, the well-organized traffic, and the clean and tidy streets.

Kara covered her mouth, trying her best not to cry out loud, only two tears dripped down the back of her hand.

Krypton...

It really is Krypton.

Her beautiful hometown, the home she loved.

When Kando disappeared, Kara had grown up and was very familiar with the city, so she immediately felt a strong sense of belonging and familiarity.

The appearance of the three people naturally attracted the attention of passers-by on the street.

The moment they discovered Du Mu, these Kryptonians burst into intense enthusiasm. They raised their arms and called his name, like children calling their elders, trying to get their attention.

"God Lord!"

"God Lord!"

The Kryptonians flocked towards their location.

Such a thunderous scene immediately scared Kara and Jason.

They have never been the focus of attention like they are today.

Even though in fact all the Kryptonians only had Du Mu in their eyes and only paid incidental attention to them, it still put a lot of pressure on Jason.

Kara was fine, but Jason was really not used to exposing himself to so many eyes.

As for Du Mu...Du Mu felt that the quality of Kryptonians was indeed high.

After Du Mu helped them, so many alien civilizations directly worshipped Du Mu as a god. Every word of Du Mu was a divine law, and they couldn't wait to figure out the meaning of every syllable after recording it.

Only a few planets, such as those that were directly returned by Du Mu to their less damaged home planets, and the Kryptonians, showed pure gratitude towards Du Mu.

Although they had the same respect and gratitude, they only regarded Du Mu as a kind and powerful being in the universe, rather than an omnipotent god.

In this way, both parties have the opportunity to communicate, and it will not become Du Mu's stage alone, for him to perform a one-man show.

Du Mu has no shortage of such stages, and every world he saves can be played like this. But precisely because of this, it's a bit boring.

Mortals desire to become gods because their own wills are suppressed in their thin and fragile bodies, and the only actions that can have an impact on the outside world are labor and destruction.

They long to become gods, to extend and strengthen the influence of their will on the world infinitely, to let the whole world be controlled and shifted by their will, and to prove their omnipotence and greatness that they never possessed. However, when it comes to Du Mu's level, his will can really change the real world without limit. After the initial novelty, he instead longs for the changes in the whole world itself and the feedback it brings to him.

However, in essence, the two still have something in common...that is, they both pursue the maximum amount of information and freshness.

The Kryptonians did a good job in this regard. Since their personalities are determined by genetic engineering, as long as they are not clergymen at birth, they do not even have faith. Naturally, they did not regard Du Mu as a god, but looked at the matter of their own salvation more rationally.

This also allows Du Mu to stay in this world for a while longer without feeling tired or bored.

Soon, the highest leader of Kanduo City followed Du Mu's footsteps again and came to his side.

Before Kara woke up, Du Mu had already traveled to Kando City under Kara's leadership.

Such a clean and tidy city is rare on earth.

To be honest, it would be a lie for Du Mu to say that he was not moved when he saw the living conditions of the people on Krypton.

In this way, everything is well organized, everyone has their own duties, the elderly have their own support, and the young are well cared for. There are no too rich rich people or too poor poor people in the whole city. The mayor and the cleaner are just one profession, and they are all workers of the same class.

That’s right, because of genetic issues, their identities and occupations are set before they are born, so their classes are extremely rigid.

But precisely because of this... no one will say that success comes entirely from one's own efforts. You are poor because you are lazy. This is a fair statement that everyone is a worker needed by society. You are produced because you are needed. Therefore, hard work will be considered for salary subsidies, so that the more you work, the more you get, and the less you work, the less you get.

If all this were not the result of genetic engineering, it would truly be a perfect ideal society.

But if we really want to do it in one step and label every newborn and directly determine its fate from then on...even for Du Mu, this is too radical.

So we can only take a look and cannot force it to apply to the Earth society.

And when the mayor announced to the people around him that Du Mu was just here to take a walk and have some fun, and hoped that everyone would not disturb him... these Kryptonians really restrained their overly enthusiastic attitude and returned to their posts to work.

Considering Kara's mood, this was her lost hometown that was regained, so Du Mu led her to stroll through the streets of Kando again.

Jason didn't know about genetic engineering, and his eyes almost popped out of his head when he saw the social atmosphere on Krypton.

After all, he is a Gotham native. A chaotic and disorderly place like Gotham is like a stinking ditch overgrown with weeds. To put it nicely, it has vitality. To put it bluntly, isn't it just full of flies and insects flying around?
Compared with Gotham, the whole city is like a sanatorium for the rich, quiet, peaceful, and everyone has their own job.

Jason couldn't help but be immersed in such a peaceful atmosphere.

As for Kara, as she strolled along the streets of Kandor, the surprise and shock in her heart slowly subsided, and she was overwhelmed by an unprecedented and greater sense of loneliness.

Yeah... this is Krypton, no, this is New Krypton.

Everyone here has his or her own job and everyone has his or her own place.

So... where is her position?

Kara couldn't help but laugh at herself.

Unexpectedly, several years later, I would once again feel this feeling of being out of tune with society.

This is why Kara values ​​her cousin Carl so much. Kara cherishes her family very much, because in the entire Krypton, only "home" has a place for Kara.

Like Carl, Kara was conceived naturally and born after ten months of pregnancy... In other words, there was no work label attached to her from the moment she was born.

Theoretically, when she grows up, she can freely choose her own career and life path.

Practically speaking, she couldn't find a job, even one called 'student'.

Krypton is not Earth after all, and there is no such thing as "school" that originated from Prussian culture.

The schools on Earth were invented for the people on Earth. Everyone will learn superficial knowledge of different subjects, and only those who "know how to learn" are selected. Specific industry knowledge still needs to be learned slowly after working.

For Kryptonians, this efficiency is incredibly slow, to the point of being unreasonable.

Since the future career of a Kryptonian is determined from birth, if a Kryptonian is destined to be an engineer, then from the age of 6, all he will learn is the knowledge of his profession. He will not be taught music, painting, language, foreign languages, etc.

Without an environment like a school, Kara's feeling of being out of place did not start when she grew up, but when she was a child.

That's why Kara attaches great importance to her loving family and is so sad about Carl's death.

After the new Krypton was rebuilt, the loneliness of losing family and being out of tune with society became even more unforgettable.

This made Kara want to escape.

"Master..."

Kara lowered her head, stood on the busy street, and whispered to Du Mu: "Can we go back?"

Going back means that the martial arts school is her home.

When Du Mu's request was conveyed, these Kryptonians obeyed the order very friendly, forcibly resisted the desire to look at the three people, and tried hard to turn a blind eye so as not to disturb the three people's mood of touring Kando City.

Unfortunately... this kind of attitude directly made Kara ptsd. The feeling of being excluded by a clear boundary even though they were all the same kind almost made Kara feel suffocated.

Du Mu nodded slightly, took a step forward with Kara, and returned to the martial arts hall.

Jason followed behind reluctantly.

A Gotham-born Earthling's affection for the new Kryptonian city of Kando has reached its peak.

If this wasn't Jason's home planet, he would really like to move in overnight.

Du Mu glanced at Jason and couldn't help but laugh.

Kandor City is truly a besieged city between Earthlings and Kryptonians.

Jason only saw the surface of Kando City. In a city like this, life was naturally very comfortable.

But the same old saying still applies... Every man has his job. No matter how beautiful a city is, it would be great if you only consume, but if you want to live, you have to find the value of your own labor.

As for natural persons who are not given the corresponding genetic advantages and have not been learning deeply since childhood... It is not a question of whether there is a system or not, but that they cannot compete with the Kryptonians who are born for this position in any field.

However, it is indeed a good place to go shopping and spend some money occasionally.

Du Mu was very satisfied with his arrangement of Krypton, and that was all that mattered.

A city of seven million superheroes whose productivity explodes after basking in the sun will only disrupt the social operation logic originally prepared by these Kryptonians. A large number of jobs will be eliminated, and then... it will be really difficult to deal with.
