Chapter 158 - Chapter 158 Prelude to War

On Oa, the Guardians also learned of Apokolips' movements through the Green Lanterns in the Universe sectors.

They were shocked by Darkseid's resolute decision to initiate a Universe-wide war.

However, they quickly became excited, as they knew that the Dark Tyrant's target destination must be Earth, and New Krypton was an unavoidable point for him.

"I didn't expect that Dark Tyrant to be so decisive, completely disregarding the threat from New Genesis."

"It seems that the Kryptonian General's further increase in strength has made Darkseid completely uneasy, which further proves that our choice was correct."

"Now we only Hope that the Ultimate Green Lantern project can be successfully completed, so that we can also have the power to contend in this Universe war, and all sacrifices made for this will be worth it."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's gaze immediately turned towards the Green Lantern Central Power Battery.

This time, they were truly burning their bridges, because once this plan succeeded, the existing Green Lantern Corps would be completely annihilated.

This was because they planned to concentrate all the energy from the Central Power Battery onto one person.

And the Green Lanterns in various sectors of the Universe, without energy replenishment, would most likely die in deep space.

However, the annihilation of the Green Lantern Corps was also a means for them to deal with the book of oa's dark prophecy.

Since the prophecy stated that the Spectrum War would be the fuse for darkness, then all they needed to do was make the Colored Lantern Corps disappear completely!

When the Ultimate Green Lantern appears, that god-like power will surely prevent all bad things from happening... On New Krypton, after Zod learned of Apokolips' movements, he immediately gathered the true core strength of New Krypton.

Fiora immediately asked, "General, has anything urgent happened?"

Hearing this, everyone else also looked at Zod with solemn expressions, because it had been a long time since such a summons had been issued!

"Indeed, an enemy is coming. This may be the most difficult battle New Krypton has ever faced, but it will also be the starting point for New Krypton to rule the Universe!"

Zod's words immediately made the atmosphere on the scene become fervent.

No one cared who the enemy Zod mentioned in the first half of his sentence was; instead, a powerful Battle Intent began to emanate from their bodies.

Martian Manhunter remained relatively calm and then asked, "Mr. Zod, who is the enemy we will be facing this time?"

"Apokolips, one of the major factions of the New Gods of the Universe, and the birthplace of Hope's former self. Their monarch, Darkseid, will personally lead an army of billions of Parademons to attack."

"Of course, there might be other lurking fellows in the shadows."

Hearing this, Hope immediately stepped forward and projected a lot of information about Darkseid and Apokolips.

However, due to the mother box being lost on Earth too early, and Darkseid not being in his complete form at that time, the information about Darkseid was not of much value.

Nevertheless, the information about Apokolips made everyone clearly realize how terrifying this cosmic force had been in the past.

Endless black torrents destroyed one civilization after another; just looking at it evoked a sense of despair.

Many people now realized that the Parademons they encountered during the previous interception of Steppenwolf were not even an appetizer compared to the entire Apokolips Parademon army.

At this moment, Fiora's Face was resolute, and she spoke with a firm tone:

"General, please rest assured, no matter who the enemy is, I will lead the warriors to annihilate them outside of New Krypton."

Hope then added:

"Father, I can mobilize all the robot armies from the Machine Nation, and with Brainiac's mechanical army, they can also serve as a powerful blocking force."

Zod slowly shook his head: "There's no need for such trouble. For me now, even a large number of pure low-level cannon fodder is useless."

"This time is also a trial for you. In the future, when your positions rise again, the enemies you will Face will be even stronger."

After listening to Zod's words, everyone calmed down.

They understood that their General speaking this way meant he was confident of victory in this war.

And this time, it was merely to allow them to adapt in advance to the various enemies they might encounter in the future.

"I understand, General."

In the time that followed, all the Super Kryptonian Warriors began to adjust their condition and actively prepare for battle.

Meanwhile, the other people in Kandor City continued to live peacefully.

Although their current state also represented a force that could not be ignored, those who had not experienced the baptism of battle would probably cause more panic.

Three days passed in a flash. Zod had not yet waited for the army of Apokolips, but his sun god tower finally completed its final transformation to become a Sacred Artifact!

The God Race inside the tower already possessed a complete consciousness and could manifest itself.

It was a young man who bore a seven-tenths resemblance to Zod, with one gold and one silver eye manifesting two completely different Dao Laws.

These were also the two Laws Zod had the deepest understanding of: one was the Dao of Ultimate Yang, and the other was the Dao of Space.

The God Race respectfully saluted Zod, saying, "Thank you, Master, for your help!"

Looking at him, Zod casually said, "You are my life-bound artifact God Race; there's no need to say 'thank you'!"

"You woke up at just the right time. A great war is about to arrive. You will protect New Krypton for me."

Hearing this, the God Race immediately responded respectfully, "Yes, Master, I will not let a single blade of grass or tree on this planet be harmed."

With that, Zod raised his hand and tossed the sun god tower towards the sky above New Krypton, and it instantly merged into the Void Realm.

Another three days passed, and a terrifying sense of distortion came from the space outside the Solar System.

At this moment, Zod murmured, "Finally, they're here. They really made me wait!"

Immediately, Zod notified everyone with his thoughts, preparing for battle!

At the same time, humans on Earth also discovered this peculiar cosmic phenomenon, but they did not understand what was happening.

Within the Olympus Divine Realm, the surviving major Gods also sensed the evil aura of Apokolips.

Athena spoke, "That Dark Tyrant has finally come. This war, spanning thirty thousand years, is ultimately unavoidable. It's time to fulfill the agreement with that Kryptonian leader!"

But at this moment, the Sun God Apollo objected:

"That fellow unilaterally took the mother box back then, already tearing up our agreement. Now this war is entirely due to him and his New Krypton, why should we get involved!"

He was still resentful about Zod making him lose Face back then.

"Apollo, don't let jealousy and anger cloud your judgment. This is an unavoidable war."

Being lectured by his nominal sister, Apollo felt his Face was somewhat lost and couldn't help but let out a cold snort, but he said no more, indicating his acceptance of her words.

"An unparalleled war, I feel power boiling within me."

At this moment, in a corner of Earth, a blond middle-aged man looked at the distant starry sky and muttered softly to himself.
