Chapter 264 Is this still Earth?
The Phantom Space Drive Engine is undoubtedly Jor-El's greatest invention, especially on Krypton, where space exploration has been banned for thousands of years.
The old faster-than-light technology has lost too many technical details due to the Supreme Council's thousands of years of space ban, and it cannot be fully reproduced from the blueprints in the database.
Following the normal course of history, after Jor-El discovered the way to enter and exit the Phantom Space, he initially used it as a prison to hold those most vicious criminals.
In a society where the death penalty is forbidden by the vast majority of Kryptonians and the High Council, a punishment far more terrifying than death itself was born:
They were exiled to a pocket universe devoid of hearing, touch, and nothingness, from which they could never escape for all eternity.
Later, Jor-El will discover how to use the connection between the Phantom Space and the real universe to create the first stable faster-than-light spacecraft to send his son away from the doomed planet Krypton.
That should have been the whole story, unless in some universes Krypton did not follow its predetermined path to destruction.
As time goes by, Jor-El will also discover more secrets related to the Phantom Space in his research. For example, he might compare each universe to an island, and the Phantom Space is the void that exists beneath all the islands. As long as one has the ability to cross this vast ocean, one can reach any universe one wants to go to.
The milky white light tore a gap in reality, and the three figures gradually solidified from a state of nothingness until they were no longer faint phantoms.
The moment they entered the real universe, the three fully armed Kryptonians removed the protective layer covering their faces and gasped for breath.
They wouldn't have been so eager to use this far from mature technology if it weren't for their desire to catch up with Joe Al's son.
The robot observes the visitors using only simple optical monitoring equipment.
Although he wanted to scan the three uninvited guests immediately out of professional habit, he considered that his previous scan of Superman had been detected instantly, which had caused a minor unpleasant incident.
It's best not to do something foolish before you're sure the other person is friendly.
The most eye-catching of the three was one of the male Kryptonians, who was ridiculously tall, over nine feet tall, a complete behemoth.
The other two Kryptonians were less noticeable. Judging from their appearance and build, they were both women. One had a slightly eye-catching platinum blonde short hair, while the other had completely inconspicuous black short hair.
When Superman said that Kryptonian pursuers would come after him, the robot never imagined that they would catch up with him in this universe within just a few hours of Superman leaving.
The robot, which was hiding in the Global Guardian base and observing silently, was about to forward the news of the Kryptonians' arrival to Cecil when it suddenly saw the Kryptonians on the monitor seem to sense something and look in the direction of the camera.
The three of them then looked around again, and a few seconds later, they turned their heads in a familiar direction—the place where the robot's main body was located!
The robot was horrified by what it saw. The three Kryptonians sensed something in a short time and located themselves through the surveillance cameras. It was almost like some of the terrifying and supernatural tales circulating on the Internet.
Especially now that everyone has gone out to help rebuild the disaster area or support the invincible young hero, he is all alone in the base located inside the mountains. This has shocked the robot so much that it has begun to feel its heart pounding.
"Don't be afraid,"
For Kryptonians, whose eyesight and hearing are exceptional, nothing a robot does can escape their senses.
So much so that they could converse with the robot without any hindrance, even from dozens of miles away and separated by a surveillance camera:
"Come out, let's talk."
After much deliberation, the robot decided to remain in place and send a drone to communicate with the Kryptonian, hoping to give him some sense of security.
He naturally spoke to the tallest of the three, a Kryptonian man: "What do you want?"
"...?"
The man looked at the drone that had come to negotiate, but responded with silence.
The robot at the base broke out in a cold sweat, wondering if it had angered the other party by sending out a drone instead of its own out of fear.
But in reality, it was not like that at all. For the three Kryptonians in front of them, whether the robot itself was right in front of them or thousands of miles away, it was within their grasp.
"Just talk to me."
The black-haired Kryptonian woman who had just extended the invitation picked up the conversation, generously introducing the three of them to the drone mech in front of her:
"I am Fiora Earl, and this is my colleague Nam Ike. He did not mean to not answer your question."
The silent Kryptonian man is named Nam Ekker, a giant among Kryptonians. It is unknown when he joined Jor-El's side, and his background is as mysterious as his superhuman height. The most important question is that "he is mute."
The robot naturally assumed that the most conspicuous giant among the three was the leader, but that was not actually the case.
The true leader among the three was this cold-faced, black-haired Kryptonian woman.
Compared to Conqueror, who is currently beating up the Invincible Young Hero halfway around the world, and Anissa and Omniknight, who also beat up Mark before, the robot feels that these three Kryptonians, who have restrained their aura, are surprisingly easy to talk to.
This made him breathe a sigh of relief, and his gaze fell on the last woman Fiora hadn't been able to introduce: "And who is this?"
Although the three men were all wearing the same type of armor, the insignia on their chests were different, perhaps due to their different troop types or other reasons.
The robot naturally didn't know the meaning of the three emblems. The reason he was more interested in the white-haired female Kryptonian was simply because the "S"-shaped emblem on her chest was exactly the same as Superman's.
"Kara Zo El".
Upon hearing the name, the robot finally reacted differently, a scene witnessed by the three Kryptonians:
"Judging from your reaction, you seem to have heard of this surname before."
"Yes," if it were Mark, that hothead, communicating with the Kryptonians right now, he probably wouldn't have been as decisive as the robot, betraying Joey almost without thinking before getting a good beating.
"The Superman who left before also had the same last name as you."
Where did he go?
Not only do the Kryptonians want to know where Joey went, but Joey himself also wants to know:
"Hey Tony, where the hell did you get yourself here?! Is this still Earth?!"
