Chapter 263 Clark Is in Danger While Attending the Engagement Party!
The heavy rain fell, soaking Hela's body.
Hela knelt on the ground, her head lowered, and her whole body lost all energy in an instant.
"No, Padraic, you can't do this to me, you can't."
Hela made a sound that only she could hear.
"What do we do? Chief."
Seeing Hela kneeling in front of the crown, her men asked Thalia.
Thalia looked at the kneeling opponent, hesitated for a moment, and said to her subordinates: "Capture her and take her away."
She always felt that the woman in front of her was not simple.
Maybe it can come in handy.
"Padrick?"
He whispered the name Hela called out.
Thalia always felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
Padrick Farm.
"Ah sneeze!"
Peter sneezed again.
"Dad, what's wrong? Do you have a cold?"
Star-Lord asked Peter concerned.
"With a constitution like mine, I shouldn't get sick."
Peter put down the invitation in his hand and said to Star-Lord: "Maybe someone is missing me."
Star-Lord was silent for a moment, not knowing how to respond to his father's words.
Soon he saw the invitation on the table, and immediately changed the subject and asked Peter: "Dad, whose invitation is this?"
"Lex."
Peter handed the invitation to Star-Lord and said, "It's from Lex Luthor. He said he was going to hold an engagement party, so he invited us."
"Lex?"
Star-Lord took the invitation and asked Peter: "Dad, are you familiar with the Luthor family? Lex Luthor invited you when he got engaged."
"We had some interactions before. I helped Lex when he was a kid."
Peter said casually: "It was just a long time ago, I didn't expect this guy to still remember me."
Staring at the sunlight coming in from the window, Peter felt a little emotional.
The bald boy I met before and the greatest enemy of future Superman is about to get engaged.
I am still single now.
Sighing and looking at his face in the mirror, Peter said with emotion: "Time makes us grow old!"
Star-Lord: "?"
Staring at his father's young and shameless face, Star-Lord said to himself, Dad, this is too Versailles.
He suspected that when he entered his mid-life crisis, Peter would still have such a face.
When he went out with Peter, he probably thought someone would think he was the father.
Quickly throwing this rebellious thought out of his mind, Star-Lord coughed and turned his thoughts to Lex's wedding invitation.
"Well, Dad, Uncle Kent said that the Lex family is insidious and cunning, and you should not have close friendships with them."
Star-Lord said to Peter: "Uncle Kent doesn't seem to like Luther."
"That's because Lenor Luthor is really a jerk sometimes, so it's normal not to be liked."
He was about to continue saying something when Thor's voice came from the living room.
"You idiot! Do you know who I am? I am Thor, the God of Thunder. You idiot, you beat me like a piece of shit and you still keep chattering!"
Peter frowned and walked out, only to see Thor wearing headphones and arguing with people in the game.
"Hey, listen, if you don't quit the game right now, I'm going to fly to your house, rush into the basement where you're hiding, rip your arms off, and shove them up your ass."
"What? You said you were in Gotham and I couldn't find you. I'm telling you, I can dig you out even if you're in the sewers!"
Sol became more and more excited as he spoke, and his threats became louder and louder.
Soon the other party was scared to tears by him, and Sol became even more proud.
"Go cry to your dad, you little bastard!"
"Thor?"
Peter stopped Thor from trolling his teammates and even wanting to be honest offline, and frowned at the new game console.
"Where did you get the game console? Don't you still owe me five thousand yuan? Where did you get the money?"
When Saul heard Peter's voice, he took off his earphones, coughed, and said to Peter, "Azu lent me money to buy it?"
"When did your relationship become so good?"
Peter asked doubtfully.
"I talked about some topics and felt like we had a common language, so..."
Sol had previously "talked about his father over beer" with Azu, and their relationship had become much warmer.
He shrugged, "So...he lent me some dollars."
"Yeah?"
Peter sat on the sofa and asked Sol to turn off the TV.
"Thor, we need to talk."
He brought Sol to work on the farm, and it turned out that this guy seemed more leisurely than him.
Did he invite an ancestor?
"You are the God of Thunder, but you seem to be running away from life now."
"Escape? No, I just want to relax. You know, Mr. Padrick, a lot has happened recently and I'm a little tired."
Sol twisted his body unnaturally.
Peter vaguely saw a little fat on his belly.
Peter moved his eyebrows and asked him: "Is it because of Loki's death? Is it the death of those Asgardian soldiers? Or is it your sister's betrayal?"
"No, that's not the reason."
Thor firmly denied that he was addicted to games and beer because of the death of his brother and his kin.
"Then why did you give up the throne of Asgard and choose to be an ordinary person on the farm?"
Peter asked him, "Because Hela's behavior makes you question what the throne represents, right?"
Sol was stunned for a moment, "I"
He was speechless.
Peter's words spoke of his true feelings.
Patting Thor on the shoulder, Peter continued: "You must understand, Thor, life is about climbing uphill, it is about struggle, it is about constantly overcoming dangers and obstacles."
Thor nodded, "I know, I'm actually okay with life, I just want to be a prodigal son for once."
Seeing that the other party was unmoved, Peter didn't plan to say more.
"Very good, Thor Prodigal Son, turn off the game console now, go to the backyard and move the crops to the barn."
Work is important, if you don't exploit him, your five thousand dollars will go down the drain.
"Okay... okay."
Thor stood up and walked to the backyard.
But soon he stopped and said to Peter: "Um. Can you take me to the party? Mr. Padrick."
"What party?"
Peter frowned and looked at him.
"I heard what you and Star-Lord said, you received an invitation to a party, there must be a lot of delicious wine in it."
Thor said plausibly.
Seeing the drunkard's behavior, Peter sighed helplessly.
It turned out that the chicken soup he had just drunk was in vain.
Should I send this guy back another day?
He finally understood why this guy was driven away by the Guardians of the Galaxy.
Weekend.
Peter took Zu, Clark, Star-Lord and Thor to attend the engagement ceremony held by Lex Luthor.
Because Loki was grounded, he stayed at home with Nick Fury to watch over the farm.
Metropolis.
In a church by the sea, Peter and Zu entered and met the host of the engagement ceremony-Lex Luthor.
After seeing Peter, Lex said a few words to the guests and came with his fiancée.
"Mr. Padrick, I'm glad you're here."
Lex, dressed in a black suit, shook hands with Peter and introduced the tall blonde beauty beside him to Peter, "This is Helen, my fiancée."
"Hello, Mr. Padrick, I often hear Lex mention you."
Helen shook hands with Peter gracefully.
"Hello."
Peter looked at the other party and said to her, "Congratulations."
"I remember when I was eight years old, I was stared at by a wild beast in the wild. At that time, Mr. Padrick saved me."
Lex said to his fiancée, "I still remember it clearly, after so many years."
As he spoke, he cast a surprised look at Peter, "Mr. Padrick has not changed at all, which makes me think of this memory as if it was yesterday."
"Maybe I was born late to mature."
Peter replied perfunctorily.
After a round of greetings, Lex left to prepare for the engagement ceremony.
After the church activities, everyone came to the hotel prepared by Lex to attend the dinner.
Standing on the balcony of the hotel, Clark leaned on the railing and looked at the sea in the distance.
Peter walked to the balcony and saw Clark looking out at the sea.
"Clark."
"Godfather."
Clark turned around and saw Peter standing in front of him.
"What are you thinking about?"
Peter took a sip of juice and asked him.
"I wonder if there are really mermaids in the sea?"
"Hmm, are you obsessed with the sea? Or did you have an idea about mermaids because you saw Lex getting married?"
Peter put down the juice cup and said to Clark: "I heard a lieutenant in the navy once said that there will always be one soldier he trained who will be obsessed with the sea. They said they saw an angel, then jumped down, and never came back, lost themselves in the sea, and there are all kinds of creatures in the sea that we have never seen."
"Don't forget, Clark, you still have Lana, don't be tempted by these beings."
Peter knew that there were not only mermaids and fishmen in the underwater world, but also Atlanteans.
It is estimated that Clark's super vision saw some species in the distance and deep sea.
"Uh"
Hearing Peter say that he still has Lana, Clark touched his nose awkwardly.
He felt that his hope for him and Lana was getting slimmer and slimmer.
Lex was already engaged, and he didn't know when he could get engaged to Lana.
After the dinner, because it was too late, Peter and his party did not return to the town, but stayed in the hotel for a night and went back tomorrow.
Late at night, 12 o'clock.
Clark left the hotel alone and wanted to go swimming in the sea.
After entering the sea, Clark swam forward like a torpedo and soon left the coastline.
After an unknown period of time, Clark emerged from the water with a "splash" and suddenly found that he could no longer see the shore.
Taking a deep breath, he was about to swim back when he suddenly heard a strange sound.
It was very quiet at first, like the sound of insects, and then it became louder and louder, and the sound kept getting louder in his mind.
