Chapter 222: Chapter 222: Original Sin
The dark golden, skull-shaped Codex, under the manipulation of Jor-El's genetic instrument, emitted a dazzling glow, permeating into the fetus within Lara's belly.
This was a very safe genetic compilation and compilation operation. In addition to the huge quantity, all the genes of the Codex were transmitted into Lara's fetal embryo, developing and growing along with the fetus.
After a long time, Jor-El squinted at the data, his eyes sore from staring, but he saw that all the data was normal. The embryo and the transferred genes began to intertwine and combine, finally allowing him to breathe a sigh of relief.
He succeeded.
As he should.
H'el silently watched all this, as if overlooking the process like a deity, peering into the mindset of the couple.
If there were any feelings to watching one's child grow from conception, H'el didn't feel much. There was no overwhelming emotion, no joy of seeing the child grow, or the emerging paternal love.
It's not that H'el lacked emotion.
It's that through his research in Kryptonian biology, he had studied many similar processes of birth from conception to a complete life.
Although this involved his own sperm, it was still an experiment, devoid of any paternal feelings.
Instead, the imminent explosion of Krypton with the birth of this child would resonate with him even more.
Seeing Jor-El's safe actions, H'el shifted his gaze away from their family, looking towards the distant mountains and lands of the icy-hot Krypton.
"Why would Krypton explode?"
H'el, in the sky, sandwiched between dimensions, his tall and sturdy figure ethereal, with the black cloak billowing behind him like waves.
His eyes carried a sense of confusion and heaviness as he began to descend his body, his feet touching the ground of Krypton, walking on what was once Krypton.
Little H'el detected the safety of Krypton's core, making H'el feel uneasy.
How could Krypton, be safe?
Krypton's core, deemed unstable by H'el, was supposed to explode at the moment of Superman's birth, destroying Krypton.
And now, Krypton's core was safe?
Why was that?
H'el exhausted all his microscopic vision, penetrating vision, and what he saw was more accurate and extensive than what Little H'el detected. But this was entirely a state of a planet ready to enter its middle-aged stage. It was predicted that it would gradually enter the internal extinguishing stage after 1.7 billion years, and then officially enter the final collapse stage after another 8.6 billion years. So, what happened to Krypton that suddenly caused this stable and peaceful planet to explode?
One month after Superman became an embryo, Jor-El was transmitting the Codex, manufacturing the spaceship...
H'el walked on the ground of Krypton, intending to find out the reason for Krypton's explosion. This planet was the one he had once fought so hard for, the one he wanted to save. At this moment, he could accept the destruction of this planet, but he still wanted to know what had caused such a stable and massive planet to explode.
Two months after Superman became an embryo, Jor-El was transmitting the Codex, manufacturing the spaceship...
H'el walked past the lava falls illuminated by the sun on Krypton's surface, seeing the lava cascading like waterfalls, fiery and hot, delving deep into the underlying structures of the outer lava falls.
He also trod on the icy peaks, swept by the biting cold wind like icy blades, looking around and seeing only hazy storms and icy spikes incessantly striking his chest.
Three months after Superman became an embryo, Jor-El was transmitting the Codex, hiding Lara's belly, finding the antimatter engine...
Walking bewildered in the icy wilderness, buffeted by the wind and snow, H'el showed deep perplexity. "Krypton, nothing's wrong."
H'el didn't just use penetrating vision, microscopic vision, infrared electromagnetic spectrum vision, etc., to observe the changes in Krypton; he also used his feet to measure the land of Krypton and his hands to touch the particles and gases of Krypton. But every subtle moment he personally experienced was telling him that Krypton was fine.
Four months after Superman became an embryo, Jor-El finished transmitting the Codex, concealing the condition of Lara's large belly, and was in the process of modifying the spaceship...
"Is it an external force?"
In the icy wilderness, veins bulged on H'el's eye contours as he activated the celestial magnifying eyes, penetrating vision, and far-sight vision to look beyond Krypton into the stars. Since Krypton itself was unharmed, it must have been an external force that affected Krypton, leading to its explosion and destruction.
H'el knew that there were two theories about the explosion of Krypton. In this event, some believed that the Kryptonian core had a problem and exploded.
And some believe that Brainiac orchestrated it from behind, detonating the core and destroying Krypton.
H'el, with his head held high in the icy wilderness, began scanning every peculiar place within fifty light-years, trying to find Brainiac.
Without any accidents, Brainiac should have come near Krypton, discovered it, and wanted to collect Kandor City, leading to the detonation of Krypton.
H'el had encountered Brainiac 7, who bottled Kandor City, in the ruins of Krypton after its explosion.
Based on Superman's birth time, Brainiac 7 should have already come near Krypton.
Five months after Superman became an embryo, Jor-El was still modifying the spaceship...
H'el scanned the space.
Six months after Superman became an embryo, Jor-El was still modifying the spaceship...
H'el scanned the space, but found no sign of Brainiac 7. He started to feel puzzled.
Based on his experience, Brainiac 7's technological level shouldn't have been beyond his detection. Where could he have gone?
Seven months after Superman became an embryo, Jor-El was still modifying the spaceship...
H'el had been scanning space for three months, meticulously examining every meteorite, and had confirmed that Brainiac 7 was not hiding among them.
His heart grew heavy. Did he come to the ruins of Krypton only after seeing the explosion's light?
Eight months after Superman became an embryo, Jor-El was putting the finishing touches on the spaceship...
H'el stopped searching for Brainiac 7, his expression changing constantly as he floated in Krypton's atmosphere, overlooking the clearly divided planet of ice and fire, unwilling to believe his speculations.
Nine months after Superman became an embryo, Jor-El completed the spaceship...
H'el still looked down on Krypton like a god, recalling all the efforts he had made in the past.
Ten months after Superman became an embryo, with the cry of the newborn echoing.
"Haha...," in Krypton's atmosphere, his black figure stood, his eyes laughing with pain, his black cape fluttering violently.
H'el laughed with anguish in his eyes, above the atmosphere, his large hand clenched, and Krypton's core was torn apart, beginning to erupt unstably, lava columns piercing the surface.
"I once tried to turn the tide on Krypton, to build a revolutionary army on Krypton, and wanted to save Krypton with my blood, sweat and tears."
"I also wanted to clone the high-ranking officials, change the rules, become the god, and dominate Krypton."
"In the past, I tried to save Krypton."
"Now, I am the original sin!"
Krypton began to explode.
