Chapter 349 Superpowers Exposed!

Martha brought out a golden-brown apple pie. Through the gaps in the flaky crust at the top, everyone present could see the slightly translucent apple pieces, and the aroma of cinnamon and butter wafted over. Martha skillfully cut the perfect pie with a knife, instantly exposing the filling to the air, and the sweet fragrance filled the entire living room.

"Try this, it's my mom's best dessert." After seeing Martha cut the apple pie, Clark quickly brought Lana a piece. Although he was a little disappointed that he couldn't go on an adventure to another world today, it was still nice that Lana was willing to visit.

Lana took the apple pie, thanked her, and after taking a bite, exclaimed in admiration. Although it was a little hot, the crust was as crisp as a cookie, and the apple filling was sweet and sour with the aroma of butter, cinnamon, and apple. It was the best apple pie she had eaten recently.

Rune and Raven took the items and went back to the house together. During this time, Scarlet Witch was introduced to Doctor Fate by Rune and appointed as the professor of dark magic. Now she spends her days in seclusion writing tutorials and has no time to teach Raven. So Rune is now the one teaching Raven.

Rune isn't stupid; he doesn't want to be a third wheel. Besides, Rune isn't the kind of old woman who would interfere with who Clark marries. If he and Lana do end up together, Rune will only support Superman's choice.

As he was leaving, Rune winked at Martha. Martha, being an experienced woman, immediately understood what Rune meant. So she quickly took some tortilla chips from the cupboard and some sauce from the refrigerator and put them on the table.

"I still have work to do. You two chat for a while, and help yourselves to whatever you want to eat." With that, Martha walked out the door with a smile, as if she really had work to do.

After all the elders and peers left, Clark didn't realize anything was wrong, but Lana suddenly realized something, and her face immediately turned bright red.

"Want to play some games together later?" Clark swallowed a mouthful of apple pie with satisfaction, then asked, "I have tons of game cartridges at home, and one—a game console I got through special channels. The graphics are incredibly clear, it looks so real! It's so much fun!"

The game console Clark mentioned, which he obtained through special channels, was naturally the one Stark gave him.

"Okay, okay!" Lana nodded in agreement. Although she didn't particularly enjoy playing games, this would at least ease the awkward atmosphere, wouldn't it?

Then she saw Clark open his mouth wide, devour the apple pie in a few bites, and then turn around to look for something else.

Clark took two steps at a time and went up the stairs. He immediately took out a game console that looked very advanced, and then ran back downstairs.

"Oh right, I forgot the disc!" Clark slapped his forehead as soon as he put down the game console, then rushed back to his room at lightning speed.

Looking at Clark's speed that could create afterimages, Lana blinked. Could a normal human run that fast?

Clark flew to her side, the wind he created even blowing her hair. By this time, Clark had brought many discs with all sorts of patterns on them, which looked quite impressive.

"Is it these things that have made you neglect your homework and always rush home?" Lana asked, looking at the discs. Although it was a question, Lana was already certain in her heart that Clark had gone astray because of these games.

Her mother told her from a young age that playing video games was a bad thing, that it would not only make people nearsighted, but also make good students' grades worse. She used to think it didn't matter, but now she deeply agrees.

Clark paused for a moment, then quickly shook his head and waved his hands. "What? Of course not. What I'm doing is far more meaningful than these games. I've saved so many people—"

Saved a lot of people? You saved them in the game console, didn't you? Lana thought to herself with a cold laugh.

"And they defeated a lot of robots!"

Lana's eyes widened. The robots have arrived! Has Clark gone mad?

"You're kidding, right?" Lana looked at Clark sternly. When she first met him, Lana thought he was just a shy boy. Later, he became brave and strong, exuding a charming aura and becoming more manly.

But look at Clark now, well, he's still as handsome as ever, but this boy is spouting nonsense, even saying things like he'll defeat the robots!

"Of course I'm not joking!" Clark was genuinely proud of the good deed he had done, and he smiled. "Believe me!"

"That sounds so convincing, as if he really did it—but Lana shook her head violently, shaking her head. How could that be!" So the little girl deliberately put on her mother's expression and said sternly, "Hey! If you lie again, I won't like you anymore!"

Clark's eyes widened in shock at those words, and he quickly shook his head, saying, "No, no, no, I really didn't lie to you, really! What I said is all true!"

"You really disappoint me." Lana was a little angry. She made to leave, but Clark stopped her.

Lana turned to look at Clark, who was pursing his lips with a conflicted expression. She thought the boy was making excuses, but in reality, Clark was just hesitating about whether to tell her about his superpowers.

Two voices echoed in Clark's mind.

A voice shouted: "What have you done?! You actually revealed that you went to other worlds to save humanity! This will expose you. Have you forgotten what Steve taught you?!"

I was just acting rashly for a moment—

[A moment of panic? I doubt it. Revealing your superpowers just to pick up girls—do you know that could bring trouble to your family?! Quickly tell them you defeated a robot and saved ordinary people in a game!]

Just then, another voice chimed in: "Hey! Didn't Stark publicly acknowledge his superhero status? If you ask me, hurry up and keep this girl here, take her to another world for a spin. Anyway, you're so strong, those robots aren't that powerful—"

You're hurting him!

You're breaking up this young couple!

Just then, Lana couldn't take it anymore. She shook off Clark's hand and looked at the boy with disappointment. She had thought that Clark was different from her ex-boyfriend, but now it seemed that both of them were liars!

That's what she thought, and that's what she said, but just as she was about to leave, Clark appeared in front of Lana at an incredibly fast speed.

"Wait, Lana!"

To Lana's astonishment, Clark's feet left the ground.

"Give me a chance to explain, okay?"
