American Comics: Multiverse of Madness

51. First Time on an Alien Planet.

Although Kara appeared resolute, the testing process wasn't something that could be done in one go. Some critical information and potential issues needed to be addressed beforehand; this was often referred to as putting unpleasant facts upfront.

Watching the eager Kara, Alex took out the timepad and began to speak.

"In a moment, I'll open a portal. The other side of the portal leads to an unknown planet. I can only guarantee that the planet's ecosystem is very similar to Earth's and that it is under the light of a red sun. However, I cannot guarantee its safety."

Seeing Kara about to say something, Alex raised his hand to signal her not to interrupt and continued speaking.

"I understand your determination, but I need to make these things clear to you. The main purpose of this test is to see if the red sun radiation there affects Kryptonians. However, this carries significant risks. If the red sun radiation there is stronger than expected, it could be fatal."

Alex wasn't exaggerating. The climate between planets is just the basics; the radiation from different stars is the most significant factor affecting this test.

Kara had already been strengthened by the yellow sun. If she were suddenly exposed to radiation stronger than Krypton's original sun, it would be like plunging red-hot metal into ice water. The drastic difference could even threaten Kara's life.

This was only the surface-level threat. Having experienced the ruin universe, Alex viewed the abilities of various superhumans as time bombs that could potentially destroy their users at any moment.

Take solar radiation, for instance. Radiation is difficult to detect and confirm, and every individual's constitution varies.

If Kara were allergic to the red sun radiation there, she would face certain death, a result Alex desperately wanted to avoid. Because the destination of this trip was highly dangerous, Alex hoped Kara would make her own decision.

"No need to say more; I'm going!" Kara's answer was still the same. Her resolute demeanor made Alex admire her determination. Perhaps hatred really could fuel one's inner strength.

Seeing Kara's disregard for life and death, Alex no longer hesitated. He found the marked location [Zod's Tomb] on the timepad's screen and pressed the button to start the journey.

In the next moment, the air in front of Alex and Kara began to tremble rapidly. Then a purple rectangular energy barrier unfolded, standing like a door in front of them.

Looking at this passage to an unknown planet, Kara, despite her firm words, felt a bit nervous. After all, she had been imprisoned for so many years, and her mental age was still around that of a young teenager when she first arrived on Earth.

Alex, too, felt nervous but quickly adjusted his mindset. Looking at the purple portal, he was convinced that this timepad had been modified. In his memory, the portals in the TV show Loki used by the Time Variance Authority were golden, quite different from the purple one he opened.

"Are you ready? I'll go first and check things out. Follow me." Alex glanced at Kara, then started walking towards the portal.

Alex's thinking was simple. Since the planet's conditions were similar to Earth's, except for the red sun, he shouldn't have too strong a reaction. On the contrary, if Kara encountered any danger, he could kick her back through the portal.

It might not sound elegant, but it was the only 'safety measure' Alex could think of.

Stepping into the purple portal, Alex felt nothing, as if the portal was just a hologram. But soon, a strong wind hit him, and in the blink of an eye, he found himself on a barren wasteland.

He didn't rush forward. Alex even held his breath, as this was his first time on an alien planet. He was curious and cautious about everything, even needing a moment to build up the courage to breathe.

Looking up, the red sunlight bathed the land. Unlike Earth's sun, this 'red sun' wasn't too blinding. Alex could see irregular movements on its surface.

Taking small breaths, Alex felt no discomfort in his lungs, which reassured him somewhat. It seemed this planet really was similar to Earth.

Soon, there was movement behind Alex. He turned, ready for any emergency, worried Kara might face danger.

Kara emerged from the portal, moving naturally and without the vigilance Alex showed. Her expression, however, was a bit stiff, likely due to nervousness.

"Alex, is this really an alien planet?" Kara, initially nervous, was instantly captivated by the surroundings, marveling at the scene.

They stood on a vast wasteland, with rocky ground and a few dry plants scattered about. In the distance, there were jagged rocks and massive boulders irregularly strewn across the ground.

In the sky, besides the red sun, there were four large planets orbiting around, likely the planet's moons. There was also a visible asteroid belt, creating a spectacular view.

Kara was sure this wasn't Earth, and the planet wasn't within Krypton's observable range, which was the most surprising aspect.

Cross-galactic travel was something even Krypton didn't possess, but Alex could casually open a portal to another planet, a truly astounding ability.

"Yes, this is an alien planet. I feel fine; the environment here doesn't affect Earthlings much, even with a different sun." Alex paused, then asked, "How about you? How do you feel?"

Seeing Alex ready to kick her at any moment, Kara couldn't help but laugh.

"I feel nothing unusual. Is something wrong?" Kara checked her hands, unsure.

But when she looked up, she saw Alex pointing at her face, saying, "Are you sure you don't feel anything? You're bleeding from your nose."
