"Ding Ding, current time in New York: 8:00. Outdoor temperature: 21 degrees Celsius. Weather: sunny with light rain expected..."
The cold, mechanical system alert sounded faintly in the enclosed room, signaling the beginning of a brand new day on Earth.
This was a room of futuristic design, completely enclosed with no blind spots. Its six walls were made of transparent glass, suspended high above the ocean, thousands of meters in the sky. The rising sun from the horizon cast its warm rays both inside and outside the room.
However, the sunlight streaming into the suspended glass room created a strange and mesmerizing refraction in the air, converging into an extremely bright and scorching beam of light that penetrated the small body of a blond baby lying in a cradle bed inside the room.
The baby boy appeared to be only about one year old, with delicate and exquisite features. His slightly curly golden hair shone under the sunlight, and his fair skin, not entirely covered by the baby clothes, seemed translucent. His pores were open, constantly absorbing solar energy, giving him an aura of sacredness with a milky white halo.
He breathed evenly and deeply, his heart beating strongly. He lay there, hands clasped tightly, maintaining this posture of deep sleep undisturbed as if he could sleep undisturbed until the end of time.
Suddenly, the angelic baby on the cradle bed, with tiny eyelashes fluttering, let out a soft cry and opened his bright, gem-like eyes.
Without hesitation, the baby instinctively sat up in the cradle bed. At first, his eyes were a little dazed and sleepy, but after rubbing them with his small hands for a moment, he quickly became clear and thoughtful.
"The clone of me... am I finally awake?"
Despite his young age, the one-year-old baby showed a mature demeanor as he touched his smooth chin with his small hand, his black eyes turning as he contemplated and pondered.
"After successfully possessing the body of the Kryptonian baby last time, in order to digest a large amount of dark energy, the clone has been in a state of dormancy under the body's physiological protection mechanism until today, when the dark energy absorbed in the body has been almost completely digested— so, this can also be considered the first awakening of the new clone!"
Caesar knew his origin and identity, and he naturally accepted the fact that he was a clone of Kyle.
Although he was a clone, the clone Caesar had the same memories, thoughts, habits, and even personalities as the original Kyle before the split. The original and the clone were like the left and right hands of the same person, always inseparable.
Although they were forcibly split by a skill, their souls were still integrated without any grudges, and they could eventually merge into one again in the future.
"I am able to faintly sense the presence of the original body but it is already too weak. Is it because the distance between us is too far? Or is the original body also asleep? Right now, the original body should still be wandering in the universe, after all, the outer space beyond the human world is so vast, and the civilization of the Galactic Alliance is not easy to find."
Caesar sighed softly, choosing not to think about the situation of the original body for now and focusing all his thoughts and attention back on himself.
At this moment, it was most important for the clone to quickly adapt to the body of the Kryptonian baby.
With a slight movement of his mind, Caesar called out to the Extracting Card System, but after staring blankly for a long time, not a single card appeared before his eyes.
"Damn it, can cards only be drawn on the side of the original body?"
Caesar pouted, thinking carefully in his mind. He found that all Ability Cards, such as driving, shooting, fighting, and other skills, were all blurred into a vague nothingness.
This meant that everything he had originally was basically all on the side of the original body. The nearly omnipotent abilities and the wealth capable of buying New York City's resources were all on the side of the original body, while the clone had only a clean and uneducated body of a Kryptonian baby.
Thinking of this, the clone Caesar felt a huge gap from scratch. Unable to control his emotions, he clenched his fists and vented by punching the cradle bed.
With a crisp sound, the cradle bed immediately collapsed under the unbearable force, and the sturdy bed board with small Iron Man inserts sunk downward, leaving two small, clear fist prints on it.
"What?"
Caesar climbed out of the cradle bed somewhat embarrassedly, standing unsteadily on his untrained feet, staring in astonishment at his own small, fair baby hands.
The strength he exerted with his fist just now must have been at least ten times the force of a human, right?
"How old am I? And now I already have ten times the strength of a human?"
Caesar's expression was one of disbelief. Having strength ten times that of an adult human was a physical attribute that only the Super Soldiers during World War II could barely achieve.
At less than a year old, he had reached the stage that the American Captain struggled so hard to reach. If Steve knew about this, he would probably burst into tears...
But that's not all!
Caesar widened his eyes, the bright blue pupils slightly contracting. The outlines of various high-tech instruments in the room, minuscule dust particles imperceptible to the human eye, bacteria, and even the radiation of sunlight and some particles, all seemed to be magnified as if under a microscope, presenting themselves before him.
Caesar suspected he was seeing things wrong and rubbed his eyes with his hands. This time, the patterns in his pupils expanded slightly, and his gaze pierced through the thick glass outer walls of the room, traversing over the thousand-meter-high white clouds and mist, landing on the vast expanse of the blue ocean below.
From the swirling patterns of waves on the sea surface to the subtle scenes of seagulls hunting for small fish thousands of meters away, these objects all seemed to be visible as if through a telescope.
"My eyes?"
From the microscopic world to the macroscopic world, Caesar saw too many things all at once. Overwhelmed, he covered his eyes with his small hands. But when his vision closed and plunged into boundless darkness, the sounds around his ears became louder and clearer.
The rotating gears and components of some high-tech instruments in the glass room, the continuous flow of electricity in the cables in every corner, the flapping wings of seagulls outside the suspended room, and the crashing waves of the sea thousands of meters below—all these sounds entered his ears—
Caesar couldn't adapt to this super hearing ability, and it even caused tinnitus for a moment. All the sounds converged into a buzzing noise.
"What's going on?"
With a splitting headache, Caesar gritted his teeth, his hands clutching his head. He curled up like an injured little beast, rolling on the glass floor. Every random impact caused the several times larger metal instruments to topple and fly.
*Buzz—*
Under the burst of an unknown force, Caesar's small infant body lifted off the ground, floating in the air, kicking his feet vigorously in a struggle. The energy overflowing from his body struck the glass outer walls all around like substantial waves, causing cracks to spread.
Perhaps even Kyle himself hadn't expected that if nurtured solely by solar energy, a Kryptonian would probably grow to around seven or eight years old before gradually awakening the extraordinary genes in their body and beginning to adapt to some superhuman abilities.
However due to Dormammu's intervention, the rich dark energy had accelerated the growth of the Kryon baby and prematurely induced various superpowers within him.
As a result, the clone Caesar, who was not yet a year old, should have been in the stage of babbling and learning to walk, but he had forcibly awakened various growth-oriented Superman abilities ahead of time.
Strength and physique are ten times that of a human!
Extraordinary vision, both microscopic and telescopic!
Superhuman hearing that could discern objects within a kilometer radius!
And finally, the Beginner-level abilities of flight and energy emission!
