MTL - As Superman’s Younger Brother, I Became a Native of the Motherland-Chapter 12

"Lana...?!"

After realizing that Lana at the dance party might be in danger, Clark immediately ignored the pain, stood up from the ground, and quickly ran towards the school.

With the super speed activated, the whole person turned into a galloping wind.

Watching the back of Clark leaving, Eric slowly shook his head.

......

Lana, who was thinking of Clark at this time, was nervously hiding behind a statue near the library.

The fountain and thorn bushes blocked her body under the cover of night.

Lana, who had run all the way, was soaked with sweat and blood and shivered.

Holding both hands together, I prayed hard that the devil would never come.

However, something that made her desperate still happened, and the demon whose body emitted lightning still came over.

The sound of stepping on the ground made Lana's heart jump with panic.

Chapter 16 I have no chance of redemption

"Jeromey."

The devil in Lana's heart was walking step by step towards the direction where she was hiding, and suddenly stopped after hearing a voice.

A shadow appeared behind Jeremy.

"Who?"

Jeremy turned back nervously.

With his keen perception, he didn't even notice how the other party appeared behind him, which made him not nervous.

"Yes...is it you?"

After seeing Sombra's identity, Jeremy took a step back in fear.

"Looks like you're indulging in your own masterpiece?"

The person in the shadow walked towards Jeremy, who was backing away.

"You...I don't understand what you're talking about?!"

Jeremy swallowed and stammered.

There is no more arrogance and calmness in the prom auditorium before, but there is only a deep fear.

Lana, who was hiding behind the statue, was completely filled with astonishment.

She never imagined that the devil who would attack her classmates at the dance would have someone to fear.

who is it? !

At the same time with fear in his heart, he was also deeply curious about the shadows in the dark.

tread! tread!

The shadow came out of the shadows, and the familiar face of the other party made Lana cover her mouth.

Is that... Eric Kent? !

Clark Kent's younger brother.

Why is he here?

Why is this devil so afraid of Eric Kent?

Countless question marks flashed through Lana's mind.

"Of course you understand, Jeremy, after all, you've just accomplished what no one else could - made the homecoming dance a **** ball. It's incredible, sometimes there's a fine line between sanity and madness."

Eric used his super eyesight to find the initiator of the dance, Jeremy, one step ahead of Clark.

Looking at the cowardly and crazy eyes of the other party, Eric expressed his emotion.

"So...are you here to stop me?"

The red-eyed Jeremy's anger surged up instantly.

Madness has overcome cowardice, and now he doesn't want to run away!

"You didn't stop me when they hung me on the cross and humiliated me, when they stripped me naked and painted my body, you didn't stop me now, and now you want to be a messenger of justice! Get your face up, you bastard!"

Jeremy, whose eyes turned silvery white, was full of lightning, and instantly moved in front of Eric.

The lightning that filled the body was like a big snake that broke free from its restraints, and swept away towards Eric with its fangs and claws.

The powerful power made Lana, who was hiding behind the sculpture, unable to help her discoloration.

That terrible lightning knocked Whitney down, and Flake instantly turned to char.

Even just looking at it makes Lana horrified!

Seeing the opponent attacking Eric, she covered her mouth and already imagined the tragic ending of Eric next.

Bang!

Jeremy's punch was blocked by Eric.

The silver lightning that filled the sky all hit Eric's body, but it couldn't knock him down.

Not only was there no knockout, but it didn't appear to have done him any damage.

Lana's eyes widened at what was in front of her.

what is this?

Could it be that Eric is a more terrifying person than this devil?

Lana, who was so shocked that she couldn't help it, had all kinds of thoughts that she thought were extremely absurd in her heart.

Eric blocked Jeremy's attack with one hand, and the other hand stretched forward sharply, pinching the opponent's neck.

"Crack!"

Under Jeremy's incredible gaze, Eric twisted the other's neck.

The lightning that spread all over his body also dissipated in an instant.

The devil in Lana's eyes was easily twisted and broken by Eric.

Eliminate Jeremy's Eric, and leave the opponent's body on the ground.

Originally, his plan was to learn from the opponent's mouth how to use kryptonite to enhance his superpowers, or how to awaken his superpowers from his physique affected by kryptonite.

If the other party is smart enough, it might still be useful, but Eric soon understood that there is no need to keep this kind of idiot.

After eliminating Jeremy, Eric glanced behind the statue.

Lana quickly covered her mouth, not daring to breathe.

Eric had no interest in this brother's goddess, glanced at the other party and left.

......

In the ball hall, Clark, who rushed over, looked at everything in front of him in shock.

All the water sprinklers in the auditorium were turned on, and countless sprinklers sprayed water droplets, pouring the flames of the auditorium, and falling to the ground, splashing red splashes.

The flowing water gradually diluted the blood on the ground.

On the ground lay a few students who did not know whether they were alive or dead.

Clark recognized them as members of the football team.

Fleck, Tommy, Ross...he even saw Lana's boyfriend Whitney.

The individual victims who had not yet lost consciousness lay on the ground, groaning faintly.

Clark didn't know if it was a pointless moan of pain or a cry to himself.

"how come......?"

Clark, whose heart was filled with huge self-blame and pain, knelt heavily on the ground.

The spray of water fell on his face, and a mixture of tears rolled down his face.

I could have saved them!

It's all my fault!

Clark lowered his head, clenched his fists against the ground, trembling all over.

"Clark."

Just as Clark was in great pain, a familiar voice rang in his ear.

In the pouring "heavy rain", Clark raised his head with blurry eyes.

Eric was standing beside him, looking at him blankly.

"Eric, you...you already knew what happened here, and you already knew who the murderer was, right?"

Clark thought a little and understood the ins and outs of the whole thing.

"Why...you could have stopped this!"

Clark with red eyes stood up, his voice trembling, and his anger almost gushed out.

"I don't think you'll take my word for it, Clark."

Facing the angry questioning of his cheap brother, Eric's tone was still flat and indifferent.

"Because now you believe in strength more than you believe in me. Superhuman strength makes you pleasant, dangerous, and can also throw you back into a situation where you rely on strength rather than technique, training, and intelligence, and tempt you to lose your judgment."

"Prejudice, stubbornness, blindness, Clark, this is your mistake. If you're going to choose the right path for yourself, see the cost of that mistake!"

"So you're not at fault?" Clark glared at Eric, his eyes burning.

"Because we're different people! You're light, I'm darkness, you're love and order, and I'm violence and chaos! Words like salvation and redemption have never been with me. So, Clark, don't ask for your standards. Me, don't expect me to be a savior who saves others."

Eric's words were still extremely indifferent.

Moving my line of sight, I saw ambulances and ambulances coming from a distance through the heavy obstructions.

After glancing at the football team members lying on the ground, Eric turned and left.

In the water-sprayed auditorium, Clark stood silently, motionless.

Chapter 17 Lex's Ambition

"Smallville Town Middle School suffered a violent explosion. Previously, three fire trucks from Smallville Town were dispatched to the auditorium where the school dance was held to put out the fire, and the fire has now been basically controlled. It is reported that all fire hydrants in the school have been damaged. , and the water pressure in the town water mains from Prince Street to Gus Square has dropped to zero, making the firefighters' job more difficult."

Smallville's radio broadcasts the latest news.

In the speeding car, Jonathan comforted Martha while listening to the radio broadcast.

"Don't worry, Martha, Eric and Clark will be fine. The two of them are different from ordinary students now."

"I understand, Jonathan."

Martha frowned as she watched the increasing number of police cars on the street.

"I'm just worried... Clark and Eric will accidentally get involved, after all they are not mature enough..."

"Will not."

Jonathan's tone was calmer than Martha's. "Our son is far more mature than we thought."

During the conversation, the two came to the school.

The fire in the school hall due to the "short circuit" problem has been put out, and now there are many police cars and ambulances parked on the campus.

Firefighters have put out the fire in the auditorium and are cooperating with police and paramedics to lift the injured students out.

The students who had survived the dance either cooperated with the police to make simple notes, or wept in their parents' arms while wearing blankets.

It is estimated that tonight's "Bloody Ball" will become the most unforgettable dance in their lives.

Seeing the groaning wounded crowd, Martha looked around nervously.

Soon he found Clark sitting in front of the steps, somewhat distraught.

Sitting next to him are two best friends, Chloe and Pete.

Chloe and Pete have recovered from the intense emotions of their escape, and they are comforting Clark at this time.
