Chapter 293 - The Tragic Fate of Krypton

In a sense, Barry was helpless. Because among all the people present, Barry could be said to be one of the few who knew Ron best - only Thomas, Ron's lackey, could be more familiar with Ron than Barry. But if you really count, because Bruce has been stationed in the DC world for a long time, Diana is the one who is most familiar with him.

But Diana’s familiarity is not a good thing, because most of the time, Diana’s mind is full of fighting. Cool!
"Is it actually Superman's head? It's really... very touching."

After taking a look at Clark's skull in the diseased world, Cyborg's face was slightly complicated. Obviously, even if it was expected, what happened in the other world still exceeded everyone's imagination.

Barry caused the Flashpoint Paradox, and was eventually killed in the battle because of the world virus that took advantage of the situation. Bruce died, and his parents became Batman and the Joker instead. Aquaman was not adopted by his human adoptive father, and under the traditional education of Atlantis, he had no good feelings towards the land people. Even his brother, who was originally a villain competing for the throne, became a diehard fan because of Arthur Curry's tough style. Diana chose to marry for power, and even killed her lover in this world line, and once again caused the death of 30 million people in the war...

There is also a Superman who was wiped out and turned into a steel-like intelligence to coexist with Thomas as a butler AI. Oh yes, there is also Superman, who landed in the city, causing the deaths of tens of thousands of people. He was then taken to an underground laboratory and subjected to inhumane human experiments since childhood, which eventually led to his inner corruption and turned him into a world-destroying demon king...

"Let me correct you here. You don't have to worry about Superman's character. At least, you don't have to worry about the Superman in Bruce's world."

Sensing Cyborg's thoughts, Ron leaned back in his chair and raised a finger and said, "In the original timeline, although the Flashpoint Universe will eventually face a world-destroying crisis, there is no need to worry about Superman's character. Even though he has been imprisoned and secretly experimented on by the military since he could remember, he still chose to help Thomas after he was freed, and even assisted the Earthlings in resisting the invasion of Krypton in the epilogue. He is a great good man in the literal sense."

"...Can you hear my heart?"

Cyborg's face was full of surprise: "How did you do that?"

"You'll know it with a little perception." Ron said he didn't want to waste words on this matter - the main problem was that this was a different level of perception of the world and it was difficult to describe in words.

"Compared to this, what does it mean to help the Earthlings resist the invasion of Krypton?"

Bruce looked at Ron with a look of doubt and solemnity. In fact, not only Bruce, but also the others around him, even Clark himself, looked at Ron with doubtful eyes.

Ron did not hide anything and directly explained the differences between Krypton in another world and this world.

"The two worlds' Kryptons differ in some ways, except that one was destroyed long ago and the other was not destroyed until the beginning of the world's reincarnation." Ron said: "Due to development problems, the Krypton of the Flashpoint world eventually became a special colonial empire. And the Superman of the Flashpoint world did not leave Krypton via an escape pod, but a special colonial seed."

"These Kryptonian spaceships will send out signals after Clark comes of age. In this world, this signal may be a distress signal - after all, it is an escape pod. But in another world, it is a signal of colonization. It's just that because of the world virus, the world was destroyed before the Kryptonian Empire could colonize the Earth." "I see, after all, it is another world, and such differences are inevitable." Cyborg said that he could understand this difference.

In contrast, Bruce remained silent. This also made everyone present speechless - out of trust in Bruce, they were sure that Bruce must have kept this matter firmly in mind and secretly blamed Clark, and further strengthened his vigilance against Clark...

However, as the targeted party, Clark seemed very calm, and didn't even care much about Bruce's intentions. He just let out a deep breath after a brief silence.

"A bandit empire that colonizes and plunders the stars... It's hard to imagine that Krypton would develop into this in the end!" Clark said with regret in his voice: "The Kryptonian civilization I know is not like this..."

"Don't take the information in the Fortress of Solitude seriously - at least don't take the reputation of Krypton seriously." Hearing this, Ron said with some disdain: "Although Krypton is powerful, its social system is not advanced at all. Take the space caste system for example. The workers have no right to participate in politics until they die."

"As for the others, there's no need to mention them." Ron said, "The reason why your biological father has so much power and fame in Krypton is because he personally led the troops to suppress the clone uprising on Krypton. Based on this, the entire Krypton, from top to bottom, is of the same character. Don't think too highly of them."

Krypton is powerful, but it is not beautiful at all.

Krypton once developed cloning technology on a large scale. If the five major guilds are the Kryptonians' own caste system, then clones belong to the bottom level of untouchables who are not even worthy of having a guild.

The Kryptonians treated the clones as tools and slaves. It was common to beat and scold them if they were dissatisfied, and even killing them directly would not cost them anything. Unfortunately, the Kryptonians ignored the defects in the clones' genes that made them irritable and bloodthirsty, and this institutional oppression and slavery also accelerated the clones' choice to resist the rule of the Kryptonians.

"After that, Krypton banned all research related to cloning. It was a clean sweep."

"Before the birth of the Kraken, Krypton had exchanges with many civilizations in the universe. During the colonial war, it also got to know many powerful forces in the universe, such as the Green Lantern Corps and the Guardians of the Universe. But without exception, the relations were very bad. I guess the Kryptonian books will not record this."

Ron said calmly: "Powerful, advanced, rude, rude, violent, indifferent... this is the truth about Krypton. No matter how powerful the technology is, it cannot cover up the indifference of the Kryptonians themselves. This is also the reason why before the destruction of Krypton, even though they knew about the relevant things, the Green Lantern Corps and the Guardians of the Universe still chose to stand by and watch."

"Besides being a necessity of fate, it is also a self-selection of human nature."
