MTL - As Superman’s Younger Brother, I Became a Native of the Motherland-Chapter 26

The owl that exudes a murderous and terrifying aura, the black light flickering like a ripple shakes, and its eyes glow with orange-red light, like the death of the night.

Moira, whose heart was filled with fear, finally collapsed and fell to the ground with convulsions.

......

at the same time.

Owl Council.

The Speaker presiding over the meeting has heard from his staff that "Moira has been eliminated".

"There is one less person in the 'Clear Plan List', the death knell is ringing, and the announcement of the next trial of the bird is about to begin! So, my owl members, tell me, who will be the next bird?"

The speaker asked the men and women who were full of aristocratic atmosphere in the parliament.

"Lex Luthor!"

Everyone said Lex's name in unison.

The Speaker nodded, "Lex Luthor has been chosen as the bird to be hunted by owls, then the **** of death will fall on his head tomorrow night, and he must not repeat the mistakes of Lionel Luthor. , easily escaped from Parliament."

After announcing to the members of the council that Lex was the next target to be eliminated, the black-robed speaker continued: "In addition, the 'black light' of the council must step up production."

"Black Light" is a poison used by the Owl Council with strong hallucinations and irreversible damage to the brain. It can make the poisoned person fear and see the fearful thing surrounded by light like a black hole.

This is the poison that the Owl Council processed and modified based on Jonathan Klein's "dread gas" circulating in the black market.

Due to the addition of the venom developed by the Owl Council, the power is stronger than the original "dread gas".

Now due to the arrest of Jonathan Klein, the mass production of "Black Light" poison has gradually decreased, so the Speaker urged the members of the Owls responsible for the production of "Black Light" to step up research and development of pharmaceuticals.

"And the most important thing, that is about the God-punisher who provoked the parliament - the motherland."

The speaker said the last thing, "Continue to investigate his identity, don't let him stay out of the law, if he finds its identity, use all power to destroy him, for this, you can even use our trump cards!"

Chapter 38 You want to lead the wolf into the room

"Eric, regarding the fire in the editor's office before, thank you for saving me."

Chloe thanks Eric.

She just came out of the hospital and once again devoted her energy to the Torch News.

Although the original editor-in-chief was unavailable due to the fire, after special approval from the school, Chloe applied for a utility room to temporarily serve as an office.

The two of them were standing in the temporary office at this time, and Chloe thanked Eric solemnly.

"You should thank Clark, I didn't help much."

Eric replied in a somewhat alienated tone.

"Of course, I know, Clark told me that if it wasn't for you, he couldn't have come in time, but you overpowered Coach Watt. In a sense, you also saved me, so... It's not a thank you for nothing."

Chloe shrugged and picked up the freshly brewed coffee.

The temporary office is not equipped with a heating system, she rubbed her arms when she felt a little cold, and complained to Eric: "I now have a feeling of 'going out with one foot', that my heart has gone elsewhere and I am ready at any time. Good to leave. Never has my heart been more eager to return to my old office than now.”

While talking, he looked at Eric.

Seeing that the other party kept focusing on the newspaper in front of him, Chloe was a little frustrated.

It seemed that no matter what he did, he couldn't attract his attention.

Is Eric a more steely and straight man than Clark?

After thinking about it for a while, he looked at Eric who was reading the latest newspaper.

The headlines in the newspaper came into view - "Moira Adams, the helm of Xinfei Energy, died in the slum! 》

"I know him."

Chloe interjected: "Although it is known as a new energy company, the pollution caused by thermal power generation is no less than that of traditional energy companies. I think Luther Fertilizer Plant is comparable to Xinfei Energy. Environmentally friendly company.”

Eric ignored Chloe's explanation and instead focused his attention on the words "Star City Quinn Enterprise" on the newspaper.

After pondering for a while, he asked Chloe, "Do you know Oliver Quinn?"

"Anyone from Quinn Enterprises?"

Chloe shook his head blankly, "I only know Robert Quinn, the president of Quinn Enterprises, what is the connection between them?"

"never mind."

Eric put down the newspaper.

It is estimated that Green Arrow is still enjoying the life of a playboy, and it will take some time for him to live on a desert island and receive re-education in life.

After reading today's newspapers, Eric continued to read the newspapers of the previous days.

Quickly find news about the attempted assassination of Lionel Luthor.

Lionel, Moira...

Combining the list of personnel obtained from reporter Chris, Eric quickly determined that the deaths of these entrepreneurs were likely related to the so-called "Owl Council".

According to the personnel list, the next target to be cleared by the Owl Council is probably—

Lex Luthor!

After staring at the newspaper and pondering for a while, Eric put the newspaper down, said "thank you" to Chloe, and left the temporary shift office.

Lex Luthor?

Wish him far!

However... Since the Owl Council is targeting Lex, they will naturally send their "minions".

If you follow the clues of these "minions", it is very likely to find the owl's nest.

Eric, who came out of the temporary office, narrowed his eyes and made up his mind instantly.

......

In the afternoon, Eric returned to the farm.

Just about to warm up the broth and pizza in the refrigerator, an unexpected guest suddenly came to the door.

"Clarke hasn't come back yet."

Eric said to Lana who came to the door with a blank expression.

"Actually, I didn't come to see Clark."

Lana said to Eric cautiously, "I'm here to find you, Eric."

"Me? I don't think we have any intersection."

Eric put the pizza he took out back into the refrigerator, and said in a casual tone, "I even think that your aunt and I have more intersections than you."

"call......!"

Lana let out a breath and said, "I'm here to apologize to you."

"Apologize?"

"Yes, I showed the manuscript to Aunt Neel without your permission, and I will apologize if you feel offended."

Although she said sorry, there was an unspeakable grievance in her heart.

She didn't know why Eric had this attitude towards herself.

Excessive indifference, alienation, and still the attitude between strangers.

She thought that through those words and paintings, the two had established a tacit relationship.

It belongs to friendship and has a relationship of common hearts.

"It does not need."

Eric shook his head, "If I cared, I wouldn't let you take the manuscript away, no need to apologize. Anything else?"

"Yes."

Lana looked at Eric's impatient face, was silent for a few seconds, and said to Eric:

"I want to discuss some issues with you about "Cthulhu", some things I don't understand, such as the theme you want to convey is 'behind the false peace is the cruel truth of the world', but why is it Keep reminding not to smash the false peace? And in Whispering Night you mentioned the man who went mad in Gotham, what is his real identity?"

Speaking of Eric's "Cthulhu" work, Lana began to show a slightly excited state.

"I can't give you the answer."

Eric shook his head indifferently, "Some things have no answers, and there is no need to pursue them."

"..."

Lana's enthusiasm was quickly extinguished.

She squirmed her lower lip, but in the end said nothing.

"I understand."

After standing in place for a moment of silence, he said goodbye to Eric.

"Aunt Neal has been asking me to help her with the stable lately, so I have to go back first. Are you going to the party tonight?"

"What party?"

"Clarke didn't tell you? He wanted to have a little party at home."

After speaking, seeing Eric's bad expression, he immediately knew that he had said the wrong thing, and his expression was a little embarrassed, "I have to go first, bye!"

Lana quickly left, leaving Eric with an unhappy expression.

"Hey Eric, I see Lana."

After Clark entered the living room, he shouted at Eric, "What's the matter with Lana?"

"You can ask her. Clark, do you want to have a party at home?"

Hearing Eric's sudden question, Clark was stunned.

"It's just a gathering of a few people, just a few friends, Chloe, Pete and the others, and Lana."

"By the way, and Lex."

Then he added.

Hearing Clark say that Lex Luthor would come to the party, Eric's brows furrowed immediately.

A dangerous look was cast towards Clark.

Chapter 39 Speed ​​Motherland VS Superman

Now that he knew that Lex Luthor had been targeted by the Owl Council, and that the killer sent by the Council would attack him at any time, Eric would naturally not let him into his house.

Once the other side is allowed to enter, if there is a conflict, the farm will be implicated.

Such a thing as bringing a wolf into the room will never be allowed to happen as long as his brain is not flooded.

"is it not OK?"

Feeling the dangerous look Eric cast towards him, Clark asked in surprise.

"I won't agree."

Eric withdrew his bad look, "This will destroy this home."

"destroy?"

Clark didn't understand why the other party would use such serious words.

"I don't understand why you say destroy, it's just a party between a few people, it's a private event, Eric."

"Party between several people? Clark, you're always so naive."

Eric let out a sneer, "I don't believe your friends will be conservative and tell the whole school: Hey, the Clarks are going to report a party at night. And... I also Wouldn't believe those high school kids with their youthful hormones who would see a party with free beer and donuts resist the temptation to come."

"Once that group of wanton high school kids get into the house, they're going to destroy the house."

Clark disagreed with his brother's statement, "I don't think the situation will be so serious, Eric, I can control it, it's just a private party."

"Clark, you're always confident that you're in control, but you screw it up every time."

Eric stood up and looked at each other coldly, "I think...you must listen to my opinion when necessary."

"Yeah, you always look right."

Clark stood up at once and confronted Eric: "You always seem to know the truth of everything, just like Coach Watt last time, but you won't share it with me, won't trust me to pull me into your camp , but kept asking me to abide by the inexplicable rules you set."
