Chapter 49 Naming Records

A Red Sun is just an official descriptive term.

In his memory, red suns existed on Superman's home planet Krypton. It was a huge star emitting red light. Under its radiation, the Kryptonians' physique was not much different from that of a normal human.

So why did the Kryptonians become the invulnerable Superman with heat vision and other powers when they came to Earth?

This has to start with the Kryptonians' physique. Kryptonians are a race born with superpowers, as can be seen from the legend of Krypton's god Rao. However, unlike other superhumans, the Kryptonians' superpowers evolved according to the radiation of the stars.

That is to say, when they are irradiated by stars with super strong energy, this radiation will be absorbed by their bodies and immediately transformed into powerful energy, which is then given to the superpowers carried in their genes, awakening their innate superpowers.

However, sadly, the sun of the star system where Krypton was located was a Red Sun. This is a star that has reached its old age. Its mass is much larger than other stars. Whether it is a red giant or a red supergiant, it is known that it does not have much energy left.

How could an aging sun about to reach the "end of its life" provide energy to the people of Krypton? Thus, under the radiation of the red sun, the entire Krypton, including the Kryptonians, was affected and became a planet without superpowers.

Not only that, after absorbing the radiation over the years, Krypton itself also carried some red sun radiation. Therefore, after Krypton's destruction, the so-called "Kryptonite" scattered everywhere was essentially just substances carrying red sun radiation.

On the other side of the cosmos, the sun in the solar system where Earth is located belongs to the yellow dwarf category of main sequence stars. Although it has existed for a very long time, compared to other stars, this yellow sun can be said to be in its "prime", emitting tremendous amounts of energy.

Unlike the Earth's 'creatures' who were irradiated by this energy from the very beginning, when the Kryptonians came here, this radiation with huge amounts of energy would instantly activate the superpower genes in their bodies and awaken them step by step according to the sequence, allowing them to obtain the powers originally present in their genes.

This is also the reason why Kryptonians will become the so-called 'Superman' on Earth. As for their fear of Kryptonite, it was just that they couldn't withstand the red sun radiation on it, because the red sun radiation would temporarily overwrite the yellow sun radiation, causing their enhanced bodies to return to a powerless state.

However, Austin still remembered in his memories that there were several records in the comics of Superman resisting Kryptonite. Although this was related to Superman's origin and Krypton's god Rao, it had to be said that the Red Sun could only be considered a means against the Kryptonians, not an instant kill.

In the eyes of most people, the red and yellow suns were more like the on/off switch for Superman's superpowers. But Austin knew that in addition to these two stars, blue suns, neutron stars, and even quasi-stellar objects carrying huge amounts of radiation could bring tremendous enhancements to the Kryptonians, making them almost invulnerable.

But that was only described in some comics. Austin was not sure whether those could be used as his future judgment on the Kryptonians, after all, the physiques of Kryptonians were different in different universes. For example, some Kryptonians would lose their superpowers when irradiated by a yellow sun, and so on.

This was also what Austin was more worried about, because he was not sure that all his judgments were correct. And the best way to resolve the matter at hand was to try it out personally as much as possible.

"32597 stars matching your description with the code name 'Red Sun' have been detected, Do you need me to help you detect more carefully?" It took Miss Minutes a long time to detect this time, but she did find results that satisfied Austin.

"Continue with more detailed categorization. I need to find a planet that is under red sun radiation with similar mass, gravity, climate and even temperature and ecology to Earth," Austin said quickly.

Although it looked like the planets were quite similar in various movies and TV shows, in fact, each planet was a completely different individual. And Austin was just an ordinary human. Recklessly going to an unknown planet would only lead to death.

Even a small difference in the ecosystem from Earth would make the air there "poisonous" to Austin.

Waiting silently, Austin thought it would take Miss Minutes even longer this time, but in fact, after just a few minutes, Miss Minutes gave dozens of options.

This was probably also where the powerfulness of the TamPad lays. Its traversal function allowed Austin to go to any time node from the birth of that universe. In that almost incalculable amount of time, there were just too many planets that met Austin's requirements.

If Austin had not specified that it had to be the "closest" to Earth, Miss Minutes could have named hundreds more suitable planets.

In the end, under Austin's selection, a planet with two-thirds land coverage was chosen as the optimal option. Austin didn't choose it for any other reason than he quite liked the look of the planet.

It was very suitable to be General Zod's grave.

"Should I mark the target node to facilitate spatial transition?"

"Yes." Austin nodded.

Miss Minutes continued, "Do you want to name it?"

"Name it?" Austin paused for a moment. Looking at the huge database, Austin suddenly realized that he should indeed give them names and classifications, so that querying in the future would be more convenient.

After thinking about it, Austin said, "Name the universe from before as Ruins Universe, and name the detected target node as Zod's Tomb."

Then Austin thought of something else and continued, "Also, change the code name of my current universe to Flashpoint Universe No. 1, and record my current time node as Origin Engine."

"Okay,[Ruins Universe] and [Flashpoint Universe No. 1] have been named. All records are being integrated, do you want spatial transition now?" Miss Minutes sounded a little impatient.

Hearing this, Austin shook his head, "Later. You have to send me back first now."

"Alright."

As Miss Minutes' voice fell, Austin suddenly felt weightlessness. He only had time to glance back once more at the Morning Star Giant that was still being eroded by corrosion, as if wanting to engrave it deeply in his mind.

The next moment, Austin's body shuddered violently and his surroundings turned back into the Batcave.
