I Get Stronger by Sunbathing, Just Like Superman (Author: Ghost Fire Old Man)

Summary:

He is the Earthling version of the 'Child of Krypton'.

Earth is on the verge of destruction. Lei Ming, one of the sparks of human civilization, is sent on a spaceship to another star system in search of a new habitable planet. Unexpectedly, he ends up on a planet that is very similar to Earth...

The planet's sun granted him immense physical strength, awakening superhuman abilities such as heat vision, flight, a biofield, and freezing breath…

As time went by, he grew stronger and stronger, and the older he got, the slower he aged.

Gradually, he discovered that the world was not as simple as it seemed on the surface, and supernatural forces were slowly emerging from the shadows…

The demon hunter brothers driving a black Chevrolet, the resurrection of wizards from a thousand years ago, descendants of a prehistoric civilization born in the first solar age, and parasitic evil gods from another dimension.

Until one day… the real Superman appeared before his eyes…

Thunder was forced to become the strongest being in this universe.

Chapter One: The World Is About to Be Destroyed

(Skipping the main text will not affect your reading experience)

"Wake up... Xiaoming! Wake up!"

Lei Ming vaguely felt someone shaking him, and then woke up with the sound of a woman's voice calling his name.

"What's wrong, Mom? Am I late for school?"

Seeing that his mother's expression seemed a little off, Lei Ming realized that something must have happened.

"Xiaoming... I'm sorry, Mom really loves you, but..."

"Mom... what are you saying? What happened?"

Seeing his mother's tear-streaked face and her hesitation to speak, Lei Ming felt increasingly uneasy.

Suddenly a commotion broke out outside, accompanied by approaching footsteps. The bedroom door was pushed open, and a group of soldiers dressed in full black uniforms and combat gear walked in.

"Ms. Xu, it's time."

A woman's voice came from under the helmet of the leading soldier, and the dark helmet visor reflected Lei Ming's puzzled image.

"Mom! What are they saying? What time is it? What's going on?!"

"sorry Sorry……"

At this moment, Xu Wenli, Lei Ming's mother, who was always optimistic and cheerful and calm in the face of adversity, was crying her eyes out. She just hugged him tightly and couldn't say a word.

"Ms. Xu... I'm sorry, we have to leave now."

At the female soldier's signal, two other soldiers beside her immediately stepped forward and pulled Xu Wenli away from Lei Ming.

"What are you doing?! Let me go!"

The soldiers' rough pulling made Lei Ming's heart tighten, and he couldn't help but roar out, but his shoulder was already being held by another soldier...

"We have no ill intentions..."

The female soldier suddenly walked towards Lei Ming, raised her hands, and said softly.

Lei Ming glanced at her waist, where a dark pistol was tucked.

The next second, he suddenly stood up and kicked the soldier behind him in the groin. The man instantly bent over like a shrimp and removed his hands from Lei Ming's shoulders.

Lei Ming then used the reaction force from his back kick to pounce on the female soldier in front of him.

"what?!"

The female soldier only felt a blur before her eyes as a short figure flashed past. When she came to her senses, all she saw was a dark gun barrel pointed at her head.

"Let her go!"

Lei Ming stared intently at the female soldier and said coldly, while simultaneously releasing the safety on his gun.

The woman and the soldiers around her were stunned, including Xu Wenli, who looked completely bewildered, seemingly unaware that her son had this side to him.

The female soldier froze on the spot; she never expected this scene to unfold before she arrived.

An eight-year-old child, in front of a group of well-trained soldiers, broke free from his restraints and snatched his service weapon in just a few seconds? And even pointed the gun at him and threatened him!

And they even knew to open the insurance?

Who would believe that?!

After everyone realized what was happening, they immediately pointed their weapons at the little boy in front of the female soldier, as if they were about to fire at any moment!

"No! No! You're all crazy! He's just an eight-year-old child!"

Upon seeing this, Xu Wenli lost control of her emotions. However, after a soldier next to her quickly injected something into her neck, she collapsed onto the bed and remained motionless.

"mom!"

Upon seeing this, Lei Ming's eyes turned red instantly, and he clenched his hands, ready to fire!

"Wait! She's just fallen asleep! She'll wake up in fifteen minutes!"

The female soldier immediately spoke quickly, and Lei Ming did not pull the trigger.

"Who are you?! What do you want?!"

Faced with Lei Ming's questioning, the female soldier first signaled the others to put down their guns, and then slowly removed her helmet...

"You are...Teacher Yuan?!"

Looking at the familiar face of the woman in front of him, Lei Ming couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. The woman in front of him, who was fully armed with combat gear from head to toe, was actually his teacher at school.

what is happening?

"Lei Ming, I know you have many questions, but our target is not your mother..."

It's you!

"Me...me?"

Lei Ming's heart tightened upon hearing this.

Before Lei Ming could ask a question, the woman continued:

“Lei Ming, I know you're smart, you understand that shooting will only make things worse! Trust me, as long as you do as I say, neither you nor your mother will be harmed. I'll answer all your questions later, but right now…”

You have to give me back my gun first…

Seeing the sincerity in the woman's eyes and her outstretched hand, Lei Ming's gaze shifted between his mother and the woman before he finally lowered the gun in his hand.

"call…"

The woman took the gun and tucked it back into her waistband, letting out a sigh of relief. She then ordered the other soldiers, "Let's go, we don't have much time left."

Immediately, two more soldiers carried Lei Ming out of the house, one on each side. This time, he did not resist, but simply asked the woman.

"Where are you going?! Where's my mom?"

However, the woman did not answer him. Instead, she spoke into the radio on her shoulder, which Lei Ming could not hear.

When he was taken outside, accompanied by a rumbling sound and a strong wind that made it impossible for him to open his eyes, he discovered that there was a military helicopter parked on the lawn outside his house!

Lei Ming was completely stunned, but it was no use saying anything at this point, because the noise was too loud and no one could hear him.

When he was taken onto the helicopter by two soldiers and secured to his seat, he discovered that there were two children, about the same age as him, also wearing pajamas, sitting opposite him, and he even recognized one of them.

"Anke? What are you doing here?"

Although the sound was drowned out by the noise of the helicopter, the little girl named Anke clearly recognized Lei Ming. She was looking at him and saying something loudly, but Lei Ming couldn't hear a word. He could only see that there were still wet tear stains on her little face, indicating that she had just been crying.

As 'Teacher Yuan' returned to his position, the helicopter slowly took off.

Lei Ming stared down at his home, which was receding into the distance, his gaze fixed on his bedroom window until the pitch-black night completely obscured his view...

The night air was bitterly cold, and the three children were not sleepy at all. Instead, they were shivering from the cold because they were only wearing thin pajamas.

Seeing this, Teacher Yuan pulled out several blankets from somewhere and wrapped them around the three children.

Lei Ming didn't speak, but just stared intently at 'Teacher Yuan,' as if to say, "I'm waiting for your explanation."

The woman seemed to understand, took out a black tablet, opened a video, and handed it to him.

Lei Ming took the tablet with a puzzled look and clicked play on the video…

The video was short, only three minutes long, but Lei Ming's eyes widened as he watched. Finally, he looked at 'Teacher Yuan' with an incredulous expression, as if asking, "Are you sure this isn't a joke?"

Lei Ming handed the tablet back to 'Teacher Yuan' and closed his eyes. He needed to process what he had just seen...

"This world is about to be destroyed... due to the explosion of a supernova 45 light-years away from Earth, the entire solar system is within its destruction range, and no life on Earth will survive."

After lengthy discussions, the World Security Council, for the sake of the continuation of human civilization, unanimously decided to send a group of promising teenagers and children aboard a spaceship developed by top technical personnel from around the world at great expense, to the depths of space to find another habitable planet for humanity, where they can continue the flame of human civilization…

That's roughly what the video is about, and Lei Ming... is one of the chosen teenagers, and he roughly understands why he was chosen.

He could read and write at the age of one, and could wash, dress, eat, and wipe his bottom on his own at the age of two. By the age of seven, he had "self-taught" all the courses up to high school, and many top universities extended offers to him.
