The two were talking, and Eric went into the room with Rachel in his arms.

"Power is never given to you, Clark."

Eric said to Clark while holding Rachel.

Clark lost his powers, of course he knew about it.

After all, Joel had instilled so much Kryptonian information in the "Secret Fortress", and it was easy to observe Clark's anomaly.

"That is a natural talent. If you are firm in your heart and unshakable in the path you adhere to, then no one can deprive you of your ability, even if his identity is your nominal father."

Eric said to Clark while teasing Rachel in his arms.

"Maybe."

Clark was noncommittal to Eric's words, he knew what Eric meant.

But between the family and the world, he will never choose one way and abandon the other way.

If you choose the option of saving all mankind and give up the option of your family, if you do it yourself, what is the difference between you and the two Kryptonians?

For the so-called dream of most people, abandoning his companions or family members who have feelings is unacceptable, and he will never be able to understand and empathize.

"Can I hug little Rachel?".

Clark asked Eric.

Clark also likes his sister very much.

Because he and Eric grew up together, and even the two were about the same age, Clark didn't get much of his brother's growth experience from Eric.

After taking little Rachel from Eric's arms, Clark's eyes flashed with excitement as he looked at little Rachel in his arms.

"She has beautiful purple hair and her eyes."

Clark had never seen a newborn baby with such long hair and such beautiful eyes.

"Yiyayah!"

Little Rachel reached out and held Clark's bleeding hand, shaking it gently.

In the next second, something surprising happened to Clark!

It feels as if a warm breath is passing through the fingers.

Clark looked at the bleeding finger that Rachel had touched and found that the wound on the finger had completely healed.

Chapter 207 So is this the price for her?

Clark, who was amazed and inexplicable, looked at the fingers that had been restored to the original, and then looked at Rachel, who was looking at him with big eyes in his arms, showing an expression of disbelief.

"Little Rachel...she...!"

Clark said to Eric who came over: "Eric, you must not believe what happened just now, I... The wound on my finger is completely healed, and little Rachel seems to have healed my finger."

"I know."

Eric looked at Rachel with her white legs in Clark's arms, "She was born to be extraordinary."

He stretched out his fingers and gently stroked the red spot in the center of her forehead.

Of course, Eric knew about Raven's abilities.

In addition to possessing vast and repressed magical powers, ravens also possess healing powers.

It's just that her healing is not like a priest of the Holy Light to heal the wound with light, but to achieve the purpose of healing by absorbing the pain of the other party, and she will bear the same pain.

In other words, the raven will heal by means of pain transfer.

Absorb Clark's pain, then Rachel will suffer equally.

Eric frowned and looked at Rachel.

The next second, absorbing the pain of Clark's finger being hammered by the nail, little Rachel grinned and cried.

Hearing the cry, Martha rushed over immediately, took Rachel from Clark, who was at a loss, and comforted her softly.

"It seems that miracles come at a price, so you'd better not let her try to heal you again, Clark."

As Eric spoke, he walked out of the room.

Clark looked at his fingers and then at Rachel, who was crying in her mother's arms, with a hint of confusion in her eyes.

Rachel is so young, does she have to deeply understand the meaning of the price? !

the next day.

After Clark took care of Rachel in the room for half a day, an old acquaintance of Clark's came to Kent Farm.

"Pete!"

After opening the door, Clark was surprised to find that it was his old friend Pete.

Happily hugging Pete, Clark's eyes were a little sore.

"After the witch incident, you were injured and admitted to the hospital, only to find out later that you left Smallville because your parents changed jobs."

Clark, who was very happy to see his old friend, looked at Pete's familiar face, and said everything he wanted to say at once, "I'm sorry, Pete, I didn't go to the hospital to see you before you left."

Little Black Pete patted Clark's shoulder happily, "No, it's not your fault, it's because I left in a hurry, aren't we talking on the phone all the time?"

Pete said, hammering Clark on the chest. "Friendship doesn't get estranged by distance, does it?"

"certainly."

Clark, who bumped each other's fists with Pete, asked each other, "Pete, did you graduate from high school successfully?"

"Hmm, you guessed it right!"

Pete said proudly: "And it's a very good grade, maybe Kansas Central University will provide me with a scholarship. I have participated in a lot of extracurricular activities, especially with Chloe, you...we are surrounded by three groups. Smallville social events, and I'm a regular on the high school football team, Clark..."

Pete smiled proudly at Clark, "Maybe my activity evaluation form is better than yours!"

"yes?"

Clark did not directly say that he had won a full scholarship to Kansas Central University, but turned around and walked into the room and took out a basketball.

"Football can't be played because of conditions and equipment, Pete, why don't you have a friendly basketball game."

"You know I've been grumpy about not getting a spot on the rugby team, so... let's just play basketball with the two of us."

Clark smiled at Pete and said, "To prove who is the right pick for the football team!"

"OK!"

A smile appeared at the corner of Pete's mouth, "I explained in advance, you can't hit me with your strength exceeding the meteorite, or I will be hit by you and fractured."

"of course not!"

Clark threw the basketball to Pete, and the two walked to a simple basketball hoop behind the barn for a 1v1 basketball skill competition. ..

Clark started with the ball, dribbling the ball quickly towards Pete.

Pete, who is familiar with Clark's power, immediately intercepted with a quick step and blocked in front of Clark.

As a result, Clark, who did not brake in time, slammed into Pete, who was blocking him.

In order not to let himself step on the basketball, Clark slipped his feet and fell to the ground.

Seeing Clark fall to the ground, Pete looked surprised.

Just being hit by himself, Clark fell to the ground?

Is this the same Clark with super strength and super speed?

With inexplicable astonishment, Pete came over and extended his hand to Clark.

"Snapped!"

Clark grabbed Pete's hand and stood up from the ground.

Although he fell, his face was filled with a smile that Pitt had never seen before.

"Clark, you look happy?"

Pete asked him suspiciously.

"Is there? I'm just enjoying the sport. Go on, Pete!"

A smiling Clark handed the ball to Pete, and the two continued their offense and defense for the next round.

As a result, the skilled Pete easily passed Clark.

After scoring the ball, Pete turned his head to look at Clark, "Clarke, your speed has also slowed down. I must explain in advance that you should restrain your strength, not let you put such a large amount of water."

Pete thought Clark was throwing water.

"No, I'm not releasing water, this is my current strength."

Clark made a standard shooting stance, and the basketball banged on the hoop.

Clark is enjoying life now.

You don't have to worry about hurting others, you don't have to control your power carefully, and you don't have to worry about being discovered.

You don’t have to constantly remind yourself that you are that unique and special person.

Although he was a little uncomfortable at first after losing his strength, he has now fully adapted and enjoyed the life of an ordinary person.

"Okay, Clark, don't tell me, you've become a normal person now."

Pete frowned at Clark playing basketball happily.

"Maybe, maybe... Ordinary people's life is also a new challenge for me."

Clark caught the ball that bounced off the rim, shrugged his shoulders, and replied to Pete.

"No, Clark, you are no ordinary person."

Pete looked at Clark with serious eyes, "When we first met, I knew that you and Eric were not ordinary people. Do you remember? The sports meeting held at school, I don't remember which fall it was held. , but there is one scene I remember very clearly, you are far ahead in the first half, like a gust of wind, and then you slow like a snail."

"Clark, I know why you're doing this, you're hiding your abilities. Your abilities can sometimes cause harm to others and yourself, and sometimes face painful choices, like my parents divorced. I have to choose one. Painful choice, but this is not a punishment for you, but your innate glory. Innate glory is not a burden!"

Hearing Pete's serious words, Clark froze for a moment.

"I have to go, Clark, just passing by this time, next time I'll play basketball with you."

Pete smiled at Clark, threw the basketball in his hand to Clark, and turned to leave.

"Also, if you're so rude next time, I won't keep it, Clark!"

Pete left the farm, and the words entered Clark's ears.

"Divorce?"

This is the first time Clark has heard of Pitt's parents' divorce.

While feeling sorry for what happened to your friend, he lowered his head and looked at his hands.

"Innate Glory...Isn't it a burden?"

......

Luther Manor.

Lex looked at the alien spaceship in the underground secret laboratory, restrained his anger, and asked the surrounding staff:

"Don't tell me, it took you so long to even turn this thing on!"

It has been more than half a month since the alien spacecraft was moved to the laboratory.

Not to mention parsing and researching the spaceship, not even opening it.

This made Lex, who was so exhausted, almost unable to hold back his anger.

"Mr. Luthor, we've tried many things. The materials that make up this spacecraft are not of any known elements on Earth, and we're studying their characteristics. Maybe we can figure it out with a little time."

A person in charge came up to report to Lexhui.

"I don't want to listen to your nonsense, you've wasted too much time. Also, not only do I know that the material on this ship is different from Earth, I also know that...the progress and results of your work are very impressive I'm disappointed."

Lex was venting his dissatisfaction with the research scholars when his phone rang.

After getting on the phone, he hung up after a few chats.

Lex said to everyone standing in the room: "Your research work ends here, all of you leave here. You will sign a new non-disclosure agreement, and our transaction relationship ends here. Finally, I hope you do A wise man!"

After Lex finished speaking, he asked his security and staff to invite these research experts out.
