Chapter 29: Chapter 29
She revealed a cold and aloof face, the same Kryptonian woman who had fought Clark to a standstill.
"Hey? What are you doing here?" Vex asked curiously. "Weren't all you Kryptonians supposed to have gone over there?"
"General Zod left me behind to complete the transaction."
"Oh, is his side all set up?"
"Yes."
"And the data? Where is it?"
She pointed to her brain, then to herself.
"All of Krypton's scientific achievements are stored in my brain."
"And besides that?"
"General Zod heard that you have a particular interest in strong women, so he also sent me to you."
"My name is Faora. From now on, I am at your disposal, Master."
Vex: "..."
Wait, what...?
Just walking down the street, and a wife delivers herself to your doorstep?
Zod, you really...
You understand me too well!
This Faora had both looks and power, with that cool demeanor. Apart from slightly short legs, she was practically an enhanced version of Hill!
Who could possibly say no to this?
"Let's go! Off to get married!" Vex cheerfully motioned Faora, turning to walk back into the S.H.I.E.L.D. substation.
Right as he bumped into Rogers, who was still trying to break out.
"Hey! Haven't had enough yet?"
Just as Vex was about to act...
Faora moved in a flash, stepping between Vex and Rogers, her long legs striking out, kicking Rogers hard against the wall.
The other S.H.I.E.L.D. agents rushed in, attempting to subdue him, only to find him already unconscious.
Vex was growing more and more pleased.
A capable wife who can also throw down? Simply too perfect!
He gave Coulson a quick instruction to register her, then Vex and Faora turned and headed towards the agent lounge, finding an empty room to slip into.
That night, the S.H.I.E.L.D. substation experienced localized seismic activity, continuing until noon the next day.
Inside the room, Vex used the [Horse Talisman] as usual to smooth out his wrinkles.
"Tsk! Women who've fought in wars for years sure pack a punch!" Vex said with satisfaction. "And she's all original too, Zod really nailed it this time!"
He glanced at the system notification.
All of Krypton's tech, plus a fierce new wife—how big would the reward be?
"Holy...!!!"
Vex's eyes widened!
This reward... was way too overpowered, wasn't it?

PS: "It's the Superman's bloodline, not just Kryptonian."

Two rewards this time? Both critical hits!
Vector Control was undoubtedly overpowered.
As long as his brain could keep up with the calculations, no attack would ever work on him. Everything would just bounce back!
And conveniently...
The Superman Bloodline includes a super brain!
With a thought, Vex reflected light, turning his body into a mirror-like surface, reflecting everything around him.
After adjusting to it, Vex controlled the light to bend around his body, disappearing completely from view.
It worked just like the [Snake Talisman].
More abilities were waiting to be unlocked.
However...
"System, why is the Superman Bloodline rated only B?"
[The host has obtained a B-level version of the "Superman Bloodline," which can be upgraded through future rewards.]
Makes sense!
Even Clark at his current level wouldn't be rated as low as B.
Not to mention...
"System, I know Thought Robot Superman is technically a robot, but is there any chance I could eventually reach Golden Superman?"
[Yes!]
Nice!
Golden Superman—what a level!
That's someone who can create objects from nothing and crush universes with their bare hands!
Vex was very satisfied.
He opened the system to take a look.

"As expected!"
"My body stats were dragging me down. Once that was fixed, my rating went up."
He opened Faora's profile.

Oh?
Faora had a "scientist gene"?
That was unexpected.
Yet despite that, Faora could still fight Clark to a standstill.
Clark must have been holding back.
Removing Faora's arm from his side, Vex got up for his usual morning routine and took a shower.
Exiting the agent lounge, Natasha was, as always, waiting outside.
"You're here," Vex said casually. "Where are Lewis and the others?"
"In the training room downstairs," Natasha reported professionally. "Your new home is under construction and will be ready in about two weeks."
"The location is in New York State, about fifty kilometers from the Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters in New Jersey."
"Tony Stark's latest MK-6 armor has been delivered to the substation by Coulson."
"And...".
