Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 1068 No. 18, get ready for class!

The power to make bricks fly, this has always been regarded by mortals as the ultimate secret of power. However, in the face of the vast laws of the universe, it is nothing but an empty fantasy.

Even if your strength is increased to 100 million or 1 trillion times, it will be in vain if you don't understand the secret of controlling the rules.

Just like Ego, the ancient being in the universe, the sarcasm and disdain revealed in his words are a complete negation of this superficial view of power.

As if his eyes penetrated the mist of time and space, he stared directly at No. 18, who was about to be defeated by him. His foresight did not come from simple guesses or speculations, but from his deep understanding and mastery of the laws of the universe.

He seemed to be standing at the pinnacle of victory, overlooking the figure that was about to fall. It was a kind of self-confidence that transcended the mortal body and the pride that only a god of the universe could possess.

He planned to direct No. 18's power into the network of rules of the universe, letting her struggle in this invisible web and eventually exhaust all her strength.

This is not just a tactical arrangement, but also a profound understanding of power - a truly strong person does not rely on how much power he possesses, but on whether he can control this power and make it an extension of his own will.

Ego is like a wizard who is proficient in magic. His every move and every breath is full of manipulation and utilization of rules, making the enemy's attacks disappear without a trace like a drop in the ocean.

No. 18 was in unprecedented panic at this moment.

She never thought that her power would become so fragile at this moment.

She once thought that she could conquer all obstacles with her indestructible strength, but at this moment, she felt the fear from deep in her heart, a reverence for the unknown and confusion about the nature of power.

Her energy was rapidly draining away, as if it was slowly being extracted by an invisible hand. She could feel her power disappearing every second. That feeling of powerlessness was like being stared into the abyss, suffocating her.

She tried to struggle, tried to resist with all her might, but every effort was like waving her fists in the dark, unable to find any foothold.

What frightened her even more was that the nature of space seemed to have changed at this moment. The distance that was originally insignificant in her eyes now became extremely difficult.

Every step forward was like crossing thousands of mountains and rivers, consuming hundreds of times more energy than before. Her speed, the lightning speed that she once was proud of, now seemed to be tightly bound by invisible chains, unable to move.

She seemed to be thrown into a completely unfamiliar dimension, where the rules and order were completely different from what she was familiar with.

Here, the use of power needs to follow a completely new logic, and she knows nothing about it, so she can only grope blindly, trying to find a clue to escape. However, every attempt is like running in the fog, and she can never see the end.

The change in the scale of the space caught her off guard.

In normal universe, she could easily exceed the speed of light and travel between the stars, but now, she found herself as if fixed in place, unable to move forward at all no matter how hard she tried.

This feeling is like being abandoned by the whole world, lonely and helpless.

Her attacks, those powerful blows that once terrified countless enemies, now seemed to be hitting the air, without causing any ripples.

She felt her strength being dissipated by an invisible force, and every punch she threw was like hitting her own shadow, with no effect.

A sneer appeared on Ego's lips. He admired No. 18's despair and struggle, just like an artist admiring his own work.

No. 18 has fallen into the trap of his rules. Unless she can understand and master these rules, she will never escape this endless cage.

For an illiterate person like No. 18, this is really a dead end.

"So I told you to study hard, but you didn't listen." A sudden voice broke the silence.

Igo was startled, and he quickly looked around, trying to find the source of the sound. You know, this area has been completely modified by him now, and any space teleportation will not work, in order to prevent No. 18 from escaping.

He confidently thought that he had taken all possibilities into consideration, but at this moment, this sudden voice made him feel an unprecedented crisis.

"Who?"

Egg shouted sharply, his voice echoing in the empty space, sounding particularly harsh.

The scale of space is infinitely larger than normal space!

This is a ridiculous number, but in the face of the power of space rules, this infinite space really appears. No matter how hard No. 18 tries to move forward, he can't get close to Ego because the distance between them is infinite.

Ego makes the distance in space infinitely long and tortuous.

The enormous force of No. 18 penetrated through, as if it had passed through countless media, decreasing layer by layer, and in the end it could only be a futile collapse.

But now, a living being appeared in this dimension, and Ego was completely unaware or unaware of its appearance.

"Luther!"

No. 18 breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Luther.

As long as Luther was there, she was not afraid.

"Luther, why are you here?"

No. 18 asked doubtfully.

Luther smiled slightly, his eyes moving back and forth between No. 18 and Ego.

He said: "I have been keeping an eye on you. I know you are in trouble, so I came here."

No. 18 rolled his eyes when he heard this and said, "Do you think I will believe it?"
If you really have been paying attention to her, why don't you come to see her?

However, there was still some sweetness in No. 18's heart that she didn't want to talk about. After all, when she was in crisis, Luther showed up at the first moment, which was really a big plus and made her very excited.

"It's time to teach you a lesson."

Luther held No. 18 in his arms.

Igo was very angry when he saw the interaction between the two. They didn't take him seriously at all.

He said coldly: "What do you think you can do? The spatial scale of this field is infinite compared to normal space! This is a ridiculous number, but in the face of the power of spatial rules, this infinite space is real. No matter how hard No. 18 and you try, you can't get close to me because the distance between us is infinite."

Luther shook his head and said, "Ego, you are wrong. Although the rules of space are powerful, they are not unbreakable. The reason why you can make the distance of space infinitely long and curved is because you have mastered certain aspects of the rules of space. However, you do not fully understand the essence of the rules of space."
