Superman

"Admiral, it's happening ......"

Zod returned to the ship and stepped onto the bridge.

Explorer Ilton leaned over first, somewhat startled.

He and the rest of the Kryptonian warriors had long since taken in the battle that had taken place earlier.

The terrifying aura emanating from the two confronting sides as they threw their hands and fists together was simply frightening.

Especially when it comes to the back, even a powerful warrior like General Zod is in the wind.

You can imagine how terrifying that uninvited guest was.

"It's okay, it's already settled."

Zod waved his hand, he and Luke hit a consensus.

As the latter said, there was no point in forcing the fight on.

Looking at the other party's swimming and relaxed expression, it was obvious that he had not yet taken out his full strength.

Wait until later, who wins and who loses is not yet known.

Moreover, Luke is alone, he still has Kryptonian ships and fellow clansmen.

To really make an enemy of it, it would only be more loss than gain and increase losses.

"General, why did you let him in!?"

Explorer Ilden glanced at Luke, who was following him, with a wary face, and almost activated the highest alert inside the ship.

"Have a good attitude, friend."

Luke strutted forward with his head held high and a grin on his face.

"After a heated and tense discussion, His Excellency the General and I have come to an agreement and have decided to sit down calmly and talk for a while."

Explorer Ilden was pressed with disbelief.

He had never seen General Zod negotiate calmly with anyone before.

When you encounter any problem, just whip out your fist and smash it over.

Only when he encountered a situation he couldn't beat would he regain his rational thinking.

This is the Kryptonian way of doing things!

The main highlight is one word.

Reckless!

"Isn't that right, Sir General?"

Luke crossed over to the other man and looked at the silent Kryptonian general.

"Ilden, you all stand down, he's a Kryptonian too, and one of our people."

Zod hesitated for a long moment, holding back the men around him.

He considered it clearly that Luke was not below himself - at least it seemed so on the surface.

Same Kryptonian, and both in the leadership class.

There was no need to fight over Earth, and other issues, and get both sides hurt.

"You said before that you could help us rebuild Krypton ...... What do you have to offer?"

Take a few deep breaths, for the greater good, for the sake of the home planet, Zod chose to compromise and give in to softness.

The tone was slightly less hard and became softer.

"It's just a matter of finding a habitable living planet, it's not like it's a problem."

Luke snapped his fingers with a confident look.

He was thinking about how to abduct Zod, as well as the Kryptonian warriors under his hands to the Marvel Universe.

With such a group of fighters, what crazy Titans, what Warlock Adam, what the three empires of the galaxy, all have to stand aside.

As for the reconstruction of Krypton?

As long as Zod no longer insist on destroying the Earth, Superman will certainly be willing to cooperate.

Clark's ears have always been very soft, just like his heart.

In the end, the reason for the farce of inter-ethnic brutality, or communication problems.

One stubborn and tough, one will never give in.

It is strange that there is no fight.

"It looks like you already have a suitable target."

Zod frowned.

Even though he didn't think a guy of Luke's unknown origin could be trusted.

But if the other party could really bring Krypton back to life, then it wasn't impossible to reach cooperation, or even make a bigger concession.

All things considered for the greater good!

That's what Zod was thinking.

"Sir General, but anyone who knows me, they know one thing very well, and that is that I never use lies to achieve my goals."

Luke raised his eyebrows, the corners of his mouth curving up in a subtle curve.

His eyes were frank and exuded a determination that people couldn't help but want to believe.

"Then, I can give up the conquest of Earth, as long as Karl hands over the Fertility Code!"

After a fierce battle, Zod, who realized that he was not in a good position, finally loosened his tongue.

When it was impossible to achieve the goal with fists, sitting down to negotiate became the only way out.

"Clark will agree, he's actually a very nice guy to talk to, it's just that you're using the wrong approach."

Luke didn't know where to pull out a contract with intricate patterns and odd writing and handed it to Zod.

"Let's talk about the price, rebuilding Krypton, getting Clark to hand over the Fertility Code ...... those are fine, and in return - you take my employment."

Zod's brow furrowed in confusion.

Employment?

What do you mean?

"Here is an absolutely fair, childlike contract deed, sign it and you and the rest of your Kryptonian cohorts will have to work for me ...... for a period of time."

"During this period, need to obey my instructions and complete my tasks."

Luke's eyes twinkled and he tried to look sincere.

If the old devil of hell Mephisto was present at this time, he would definitely be able to recognize that the words on that contract were actually just camouflage.

The real magical effect is actually the magic brand hidden in the surrounding pattern, almost difficult to see clearly with the naked eye.

Even if you see it clearly, without rich experience and magic knowledge of the layman, also can not understand the meaning.

This is the usual routine of the devil in hell.

So when people in the magic world sign a contract, they will be very careful and cautious.

Dr. Stephen Strange was living on the streets for a while, penniless, and even wrote a best-selling book on "How to Tell the Devil's Contract in a Thousand Notes" specifically.

"A period of time? How long, exactly?"

Zod didn't agree easily, a glint of caution in his eyes.

"Thirty years?"

Luke asked tentatively.

"That's too long, we have a lot of work to do."

Zod shook his head decisively.

He was bent on devoting all of his limited time to the great cause of building Krypton, so how could he possibly give Luke thirty years of work for nothing.

"Fifteen years?"

Luke asked again.

"Ten years! That's my bottom line!"

Zod narrowed his eyes.

After thinking about it, he gave an answer.

He liked a straightforward negotiation style, not so much beating around the bush.

"Ten years, then."

Luke pretended to be difficult, and then shrugged his shoulders and agreed helplessly.

At the end, he also deliberately stressed, "I am a man who values the spirit of contract, General Sir."

"This contract will be notarized by some conceptual being, and if there is any violation, it will incur a huge price, do you understand?"

Without changing his face, Zod took the contract handed to him by Luke and said in a cold voice, "As long as you get Karl to hand over the fertility code, my men and I don't mind being space mercenaries for a while."

"Very well, as expected of His Excellency the General, talk is quick."

Luke clapped his hands in appreciation.

......

......

In the cell where Superman was being held, the metal door was pushed open.

Clark, who was restrained on an operating table, heard the movement and opened his heavy eyelids.

There was a blazing white light overhead that illuminated him.

"Clark."

A familiar voice jolted his brain dizziness and Superman struggled to see the person approaching.

It seemed to be the voice of his older cousin?

The lights dimmed for a moment and seemed to be moved out of the way.

Luke, with a smile on his face, asked softly, "Surprise, surprise?"

Superman froze for a moment, and then was a little surprised.

"Big cousin, what are you doing here!?"

Luke skimmed his lips and said softly: "You are reduced to a prisoner, if I do not come over to save the scene, what if Zod and the others are sliced?"

Clark smiled and couldn't help but feel ashamed.

It was because of his recklessness and impulsiveness that led to such a fate.

"I talked to Zod and he decided to give up his plan to make Earth the new Krypton."

Luke casually ripped off the shackles that imprisoned Superman, and the atmosphere inside the ship did not have any effect on him.

"Zod ...... How did he agree to this?"

Clark asked subconsciously.

From the previous contact can be seen, that Kryptonian general is a stubborn, extremely difficult to communicate with the guy.

"I spoke with love and reason to make Zod realize his mistake, and he not only gave up his original crazy idea, but also decided to work for me ...... for the rest of his life to atone for his sins."

Luke replied with a seriousness.

That contract did not indicate the duration.

As long as you sign your name, afterwards Zod's soul will belong to Luke's Underworld.

When he was born, he was a worker, and after he died, he didn't want to be easy.
