To be honest, Robet didn't know how to answer Diana's deadly question at this moment. Is there such a thing as liking someone more? Especially for Robet, he really didn't have the idea of liking anyone more right now, because the scales in his heart were equal.

This time, faced with Diana's predicament, Robet was indeed so enraged that he almost transformed into a Super Saiyan, going berserk to avenge Diana. However, if it were Kara in the other situation, the outcome would likely be the same...

Therefore, Robet initially wanted to refuse to answer this question, but in his current state, he could only slightly resist the power of the Lasso of Truth of Lasso of Truth, but he couldn't completely neutralize its power...

Especially when Diana couldn't get an answer from Robet and tightened her grip on the Lasso of Truth, Robet's resolve finally loosened a little.

"Actually, at first, I definitely liked you more, because at that time, Kara wasn't a female warrior..." Robet thought of his previous answer to Kara, which was indeed his true feeling. Now, facing the power of the Lasso of Truth, Robet finally spoke it out, turning it into a truly scumbag quote.

"But right now, in my heart, you two are equally important. On the scales of my heart, neither of you is more important than the other, and there is no question of who I like more!"

Upon hearing Robet's words, Diana's face darkened. She gritted her teeth and glared at Robet. If it weren't for Robet's chest injury, Diana would have already wanted to beat Robet up. After all, Robet wasn't in his previous Mimicry form now; she could still defeat Robet in his normal state!

"Wait, you liked me more at first, so what happened that made her more important?" Diana quickly realized the problem and asked Robet in a low voice, her eyes narrowed.

"Ugh!" Feeling his consciousness being jolted once again, Robet's expression became even more conflicted. He gritted his teeth and whispered, "This... I really can't say..."

"Hmm?" Seeing Robet's expression, Diana's curiosity intensified. She really wanted to know what had allowed Kara to turn the tide. Was it because Kara had now become a female warrior?

But that doesn't seem right either. When Diana faced the gods of Asgard before, she saw Kara. Although Kara was slightly different from the last time she saw Kara, Diana didn't think that Kara's fighting spirit could match that of this valiant Amazon Warrior!

"I really can't say..." However, faced with Diana's curiosity, Robet gritted his teeth, firmly sealed off his consciousness, forcibly blocked the power of the Lasso of Truth from the outside, and at the same time meditated to keep his consciousness unshakable.

"Hmm? Could it be?" Diana stared intently at Robet's expression, then carefully recalled the changes in Robet's behavior during her two meetings with Kara. Suddenly realizing something, her expression grew increasingly hostile. She looked at Robet and said in a low voice, "So, she ate it, didn't she?!"

"Huh?! How did you know..." Robet was stunned for a moment when he heard Diana's thunderous voice. He didn't even understand where he had given himself away. He looked at Diana with some guilt and almost stopped talking, but it seemed that it made no difference whether he said it or not.

"I knew it! I knew it!" Upon hearing Robet's words, Diana gritted her teeth and looked at Robet, saying in a deep voice, "So, after she cheated on me, you felt you needed to take responsibility, which is why you haven't come to me. And that's why the scales in your heart have reached a state of balance, isn't it?"

"It's not entirely her fault, I also bear some responsibility..." Robet thought about what happened that day. Although Kara did indeed transform into a valiant female knight, some things would not have happened if he hadn't cooperated. Therefore, Robet felt that he also needed to take a large part of the responsibility.

Hearing Robet's account, Diana's eyes flashed with anger. If Robet had truly changed his mind, then Diana would consider Kara the winner. But the problem was that Kara used such methods, and Diana naturally couldn't accept it!

With a "whoosh!", Diana, gripping the Lasso of Truth without any intention of loosening her grip, flew through the sky with a beautiful, voluptuous Amazon Warrior, her face contorted with anger, carrying a handsome man with a wound on his chest. However, Diana was incredibly fast; her figure flashed across the sky, and she swiftly returned home with Robet...

"Diana? What are you going to do? You can't be serious!" Robet asked hesitantly, as if realizing something, after being tied up and brought home by Diana.

"What? She can eat Kara, but I, Diana, can't?" Diana glared fiercely at Robet and questioned him in a deep voice.

"No, I haven't decided how to handle this yet..." Robet looked at Diana with some helplessness and explained softly, but before Robet could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Diana.

"I don't care, I'll ask you after I finish eating which side of the scale in your heart is more important!" Diana showed no intention of letting go of Robet. She threw Robet onto the bed, then suddenly remembered something. Divine Shield appeared in her hand, and then a Divine Shield, hovering in mid-air and enveloping Diana and Robet's figures along with the bed in the divine light.

"Ugh!" Robet opened his mouth to say something, but suddenly felt as if his mouth, like his body, was also bound by the Lasso of Truth. This made Robet instinctively control every inch of his body to fight back, wanting to regain his freedom!

Robet tried everything, from his toes to his hair, from his internal organs to his tongue, but the Lasso of Truth bound Robet up to everything except his hair and internal organs, leaving Robet completely unable to struggle!

However, Robet gradually discovered that some of the bindings didn't seem to be the Lasso of Truth, but rather artifacts that Diana hadn't used before...

Thinking of this, Robet fought back from where he had been trapped by the New Gods. After an unknown amount of time, Robet's mouth was finally freed. However, after feeling the taste of air again, Robet reluctantly licked his numb lips and looked at Diana, who was so close to him, at a loss for words.

"Now I understand why you said you also bear responsibility. You didn't retaliate in the same way back then, did you?" Diana asked Robet, her eyes narrowed.

Robet was momentarily speechless. What could he say? To say that he truly meant it? That would be too embarrassing!

Robet, in particular, never expected that he, Saiyan, would have his first two abilities suppressed, which was undoubtedly unacceptable to Robet.

However, Robet's strength had already surpassed Kara 'Kara during their last battle, but he had just fought a major battle with the Demon King Valentine, and his combat power had plummeted to rock bottom, making him no match for Kara at all.

This time, the situation was similar. Although he had almost transformed into Super Saiyan and was quite glorious, falling back to his normal state from his Mimicry was no small feat. In addition, the injury caused by the Gungnir in Robet's chest had not yet healed, rendering Robet, who was originally capable of fighting Diana, incapable of resisting. Not to mention that even in this close-quarters combat, Diana still did not withdraw her Lasso of Truth...

"Has she used this move before?" Diana's questions kept coming from beneath the divine light of the Divine Shield, leaving Robet at a loss for words. And this was only the beginning of Diana's quest!

"Hmph! Not saying anything means you've already used it? What about this next move?"

"Huh?!"

"Great! It looks like it hasn't been used before! Excellent!"

Diana and Robet's battles and quest went unnoticed, and the battles didn't cause any disturbance. It was truly unexpected that such a powerful artifact as the Divine Shield could have such a use, but at least it could prevent the bed and house from collapsing.

On the other hand, Clark said he wasn't eavesdropping, and he really wasn't. He wasn't in good shape either. He hadn't escaped injury from the battle with All-Father Odin, and if Robet hadn't been so helpful, Clark's injuries would have been even more severe.

Moreover, Clark discovered many of his own problems during the battle. Perhaps when facing opponents weaker than himself, Clark's physique is practically invincible. As long as he doesn't face magical or spiritual abilities, Clark can basically crush them.

However, when facing enemies of equal or even greater strength, Clark's attack methods become somewhat inadequate.

First, there are the rare energy or long-range attack abilities that Clark possesses, such as Heat Vision and Freeze Breath. For All-Father Odin, these two abilities are practically no threat. The divine power that All-Father Odin unleashes is superior to Clark's Heat Vision and Freeze Breath in both destructive power and comprehensiveness!

Secondly, there's the matter of strength, speed, and defense. Clark doesn't have much of an advantage over All-Father Odin in terms of strength, nor in speed. Perhaps only in defense and recovery do Clark surpass All-Father Odin. Apart from the Gungnir, All-Father Odin has little chance of harming Clark by other means.

However, even with his formidable defenses, Clark found it difficult to inflict any real damage on All-Father Odin, the All-Father Odin was fully focused and undistracted. The injuries All-Father Odin sustained were only achieved when Clark seized the opportunity to strike during times when Robet caused significant disturbances or casualties on Asgard...

"I have learned a lot of Robet's fighting skills, otherwise even when Odin is distracted, it would be difficult for me to seize the opportunity to injure him. But I cannot learn his Ki Blast. How can I gain abilities other than Heat Vision and Freeze Breath?" At this moment, Clark did not go home. He was floating in the sky above the earth, basking in the sun and recovering from his injuries, while a series of thoughts flashed through his mind.

"Or, I could transform my Heat Vision and use this energy within my body to create a technique similar to Ki Blast, or something like Carol's..."

"Or perhaps, I could control the temperature of my Heat Vision even higher, making its destructive power even greater. The ice in my Freeze Breath is too weak for Skyfather -level powerhouse. I can only forcefully cool it down, not instantly reach freezing point or absolute zero, so it poses no threat to Skyfather -level powerhouse at all..."

"In other words, I now either need to transform the power of Heat Vision into other offensive methods, thus creating something as versatile as Robet, or I need to increase the temperature and destructive power of Heat Vision?"

"What should I do? Should I go to the sun and take a look? I've never observed the sun up close since I learned that it's the source of my power..."

Clark looked towards the sun, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes. Although he knew the sun was the source of his power, for some reason, Clark still felt a sense of fear about observing it up close...

Not only is it theoretically a forbidden zone for life, but more importantly, if we can obtain such immense power from Earth, so far from the sun, could our bodies truly withstand such power if we actually approached or even entered the sun?

No one can answer this question for Clark. Even Krypton records don't mention it. It's safe to say that, aside from possible ancient legends, Clark is likely the most powerful Kryptonian in the universe. The future is something Clark must explore himself...

Although his strength has improved rapidly and he has become much stronger, Clark is still quite confused about his future path compared to Robet, who knows the way forward.

Ultimately, Clark made a decision: to go and see for himself. Even if he didn't go directly into the sun, he wanted to get a close look at it and to feel the connection between himself and the sun.

Clark had previously observed that every time Robet acquired a new extraordinary item, as long as it interested him and he could learn from it, he would explore the essence of the item's power, thereby developing corresponding abilities through understanding its power.

Clark felt that if Robet could channel that same spirit of exploration into academic learning, getting into university would be no problem at all, but Robet clearly had no interest in that area.

Of course, Clark isn't really qualified to criticize Robet in this regard, because Clark's brain is undoubtedly one of the most powerful on Earth, probably even more powerful than the most advanced computers, yet he still didn't seem to possess much knowledge or wisdom.

At this point, Clark felt he should learn from Robet, who had the spirit to explore the source of his own power. Understanding the deeper connection between the sun and his own power would greatly help him improve his abilities...

And so, Clark set off on his quest to understand the essence of power. He vanished from the Earth in a flash, only managing to say goodbye to Lana, as he hadn't found Robet's whereabouts and it wasn't convenient to inform Kara and the others of his return at that moment...
