Superman

Chapter 448 - Krypton's strongest, the battle for leadership

The clock was set back half an hour.

Luke and the Kryptonian female commander had reached an understanding after an in-depth exchange.

Fiora recognized him as a Kryptonian, and as a general.

Promising to return to the giant ship to make a pitch to Zod for a fair hostage exchange, or to let Clark's parents go.

But things didn't go as smoothly as Luke had expected.

After he emerged from the Underworld, he found that his younger cousin was gone.

"Why didn't you stop Clark's reckless behavior?"

Luke frowned slightly and looked at his godson who looked innocent.

"Godfather, you can't expect an ordinary unarmed man to be able to stop a Superman who lifts a Boeing 747 airliner with his bare hands."

Lex shrugged his shoulders and acted aggrieved.

"Don't act like a little pathetic for your dad to fall for that trick."

The corner of Luke's mouth lifted and he nudged Lex's chest with a finger, half reminder, half warning, "I don't want to see anything like that happen again, understand?"

He was generally gentle, with Lex as well as the others.

Being easily angered and angry was not the way a leader should behave.

But occasionally, there were times when he would display severity and knock it out of the park.

"Lex, when I give you a certain task, I definitely want you to handle it properly and complete it successfully, not to see you mess it up."

Luke said lightly.

Lex, who felt the pressure, took two steps back.

"I understand, Godfather."

He was sincere and did not argue.

"You guys always manage to get me into some new trouble."

Luke shook his head, and seeing Lex admit his mistake, he didn't say anything more serious.

The young godson's head was always bubbling with little wisdom.

Obviously can stop Clark's adventurous, but choose to look on coldly.

Was it because of jealousy of Superman?

Or have other ideas?

Luke did not look deeper.

Some villains are destined to impossible to change the fate.

For example, Gotham's Joker.

Apparently, Lex Luthor is also such a person.

If there is no his presence, Superman can take a vacation half of the year down.

"Originally wanted to be a pacifist identity, get along with Zod and them, did not expect in return only to get an inch ......"

Luke sighed, Superman battlesuit covered and up.

The dark red cape fluttered violently, the body like lightning through the atmosphere.

......

......

Back to the present.

"Hello, General Zod."

The magnetic voice that contained a smile rang in Zod's mind.

The young man, was greeting him from across the overlook.

"Kryptonian ...... my compatriot?"

Zod did not issue an alert order and then activate the ship's turrets for a round of fire bombardment.

For in his perception, the other man's aura was quite familiar.

"You could say that."

Luke nodded, not denying it.

"General Krypton ......."

Zod went to the console and pressed a few times, launching a life scan on the uninvited guest standing in the dark universe.

But the results he got threw him into disbelief.

The genetic template was the leader class, General!

"Surprised?"

Luke smiled.

After he fought with the Sentinel, he used the prestige value to level up the template, from LV4 General. (Note 1)

"Krypton died a long time ago, and all the leadership classes died with it! There can't possibly be another general!"

Zod was unwilling to accept the fact that people like the Jor-El's, and the decaying elders, who had chosen to live and die with Krypton.

It was logical that there could not be any extra survivors.

Kal-El was already an exception.

How did another one pop up!

"My origins are difficult to explain to you, and there's no point in dwelling on it."

Luke laughed lightly, and the mind fluctuations came into Zod's consciousness.

"General, all you need to know is that I come with a sincere desire to cooperate and be able to help you achieve your good intentions of rebuilding Krypton."

Zod's eyes were cold, how could he be easily moved by a few words.

"Then I'm afraid I disappoint you, I can rebuild Krypton without your help."

The Kryptonian general retorted stiffly.

"You mean getting the Fertility Code from Clark and then using the World Engine to transform Earth's atmosphere and surface environment so as to recreate a new Krypton?"

Luke's tone was slightly sarcastic.

There were countless ways to rebuild Krypton, and General Zod had to choose the most difficult path to achieve.

If he had a good attitude, take the initiative to Clark to explain the causes and consequences.

According to Superman's good old character, for the Kryptonian people this point, it is impossible to refuse to hand over the fertility code.

But Zod had to choose the Earth, and then broke into the Kent farm, hurting people's mothers.

Successfully let Clark to his antagonist, resulting in the grand plan to end in failure.

Of course, this can not be separated from the genetic level of character defects.

Zod is the leadership class, Kryptonian general.

Stubborn and tough by nature, never compromise and give up easily.

"With all due respect, Earth is not as simple as you think."

Luke laughter, the Marvel Universe's Earth, the heart of the Eternal God.

And this side of the film set, the Earth's origin is equally extraordinary.

It is the central channel of the multiverse, among the emotional spectrum, representing the white light of life, is hidden here.

Eight planets in the solar system, Zod other did not see, had to choose the Earth.

One can only say that he is very discerning!

"Is that so? I do not think so."

Zod shook his head, a hint of contempt in his eyes.

After arriving on Earth, the Kryptonian ship quickly made a meticulous analysis of its civilization level, racial life.

Backward, inefficient, complex social structure, many religious beliefs ......

In short, it is an inferior civilization that can not see the hope of unification for the next hundred years for the time being.

"Then it seems there is no more talk."

Luke shrugged his shoulders.

Such an outcome was within his expectation.

Zod, Odin, Sentinel, such a strong class of people.

To some extent the personalities were all very similar.

They would not be swayed by others to retract their decisions.

Zod narrowed his eyes and opened a hatch in front of the bridge.

Strong air currents formed a sucking and pulling force.

The strong body of the Kryptonian general was as unshakable as a mountain.

One step, two steps ......

Zod walked to the hatch, looked at Luke, and asked in a deep voice: "Are you going to stop my great plan to rebuild Krypton, just like Carl?"

"Unfortunately, we didn't talk about it."

Luke nodded his head.

Hearing the reply, Zod sank his face.

He was not willing to waste any more time exploring and discovering brand new habitable planets.

For the Kryptonians, Earth was the perfect choice.

Young and vital, and in the radiation range of the yellow sun.

All that was needed was to pass the world engine and start the transformation project.

It would be possible to bring Krypton back to life in the shortest possible time.

"Your suggestion is not suitable for the present moment. My people and I can't wait to welcome the rebirth of our home planet!"

Zod thought carefully for a moment and shook his head.

He would not have been so patient if he had not been unable to figure out Luke's strength for the time being.

"General, I personally hope you can reconsider."

Luke's mind fluctuation, passed into Zod's brain.

"Believe me, conquering Earth is not as easy as you think, many creatures more powerful than you have tried, but none of them have achieved their goal."

He did not feel annoyed by Zod's repeated refusals.

For the most part, Superman's first cousin had a good temper.

"That's because they weren't strong enough!"

Zod's patience was exhausted and he said coldly, "Now get out of my head!"

The Kryptonian general's tough will instantly banished the voice in his head.

Black cloak hunting fluttering, Zod took a step, suspended in the air in the void.

And then hands clenched fists, surging power like a volcanic eruption.

Wearing black armor Zod, like a huge beast, emitting a terrifying aura.

He coldly gazed at Luke, although because of the identity of the other Kryptonian general, there is some scruples in his heart.

But Zod did not think he would lose, his innate fighting instincts, firmly imprinted in the genetic bloodline.

"That's why I said, negotiating with a reckless man full of muscles is the biggest headache. Why can't you just be sensible?"

Luke thought silently, grumbling silently.

"Since you think you have to use your fists to talk, let's give it a try."

Facing the imposing and raging General Zod, Luke did not have the slightest fear.

On the contrary, deep inside, there was a vague hint of excitement.

This was the instinctive desire for a powerful opponent.

The black and cold infinite universe, two strong and powerful figures, standing above the Earth.

A summit showdown between Kryptonian generals, is about to take place!

......

......

North American Air Defense Joint Command.

Black General Swanwick stared at the image transmitted from the satellite on the big screen, a shocked look in his eyes.

Although the image was slightly blurred and much delayed.

However, everyone in the command room, they could clearly see that there were two figures standing in outer space without any virtue.

The harsh environment and the extremely dangerous vacuum of the universe seemed to have no effect on them.

The black general Swanwick clenched his fist, facing such inhuman existence, can still rely on the army and weapons to deal with?

His heart surged with worry, when the gap between the two sides' strength is too large, then it means the arrival of war.

Because, lions do not live in harmony with sheep!

"Send the message to the White House ...... Forget it, I will personally go and speak to Mr. President, the United States of America, no, the entire human civilization is in crisis."

The black general walked out of the command room with a gloomy expression, and after he left, the picture on the big screen changed.

Two figures facing each other abruptly moved!

With unimaginable swiftness!

As if two long-stored steel cannonballs were engaged in a fierce and ferocious collision!

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!

Although the environment under the vacuum of the universe, no sound was transmitted.

But everyone who witnessed this scene seemed to feel the powerful collision sound in their ears.

That invisible sense of power was directly and vividly displayed in front of them through the images transmitted by the satellite.

"God! It's terrifying!"

An American GI in the command room couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

General Zod, wearing black armor, was like a tireless and ferocious beast.

Again and again, he quickly closed in and launched a furious attack.

His fist, it seemed, was harder than the alloy material.

Combined with the unparalleled strong explosive power in the body, it is enough to punch through everything in the world!

"Even the military's exoskeleton armor, I'm afraid it wouldn't last a second in the hands of this monster ......"

The image on the screen is as fast as a cloud of residual shadows, requiring several slow replay and frame-by-frame freeze-frame to see the action clearly.

Just by imagination, you can understand what kind of fierce collision is happening between those two figures.

Bang!

The screen shook violently, and a large number of snowflake dots flashed.

It turned out that the aftermath of the battle between the two sides had disturbed the satellite, and the sturdy man in black armor was sent flying with a punch.

Directly through an artificial satellite floating in orbit, a violent explosion ignited into a bright fire.

The scene ends abruptly here.

No one knows how the battle ended.

But just from the two non-human monsters showed the terrible fighting power and destructive, it is enough to make people feel fearful palpitations!

"How are we supposed to deal with such monsters?!"

Everyone in the command room, the same question rose in their hearts.

............

Outer space.

The horrible battle still continued.

General Zod, who was knocked away by a punch, had a face full of anger and wariness.

He held the artificial satellite that had exploded into a ball of scrap iron with both hands, and his surging power erupted, throwing the huge metal object weighing tens of tons directly at his opponent.

Bang!

The huge wave of sound was swallowed silently.

Luke did not change his face, as if penetrating a piece of paper, tore open the solid and huge artificial satellite.

The infinite power of Superman's body spurted out, driving the body and rushing to General Zod's front.

"Sir General, you are not as powerful as I thought--"

Luke's mockery reached Zod's mind, instantly provoking the opponent's anger.

A violent killing intent came out of the Kryptonian general's eyes.

It was like a raging and fierce tidal wave of anger, which caused people to involuntarily generate a fearful mentality.

Luke smiled faintly and turned into a shadow to avoid Zod's head slapping hand.

The Kryptonian general's combat skills are indeed a thousand times more refined, and there is a beastly instinct.

No wonder in the original timeline, Superman was beaten by him without the ability to fight back.

If not relying on a long time living on Earth, for the adaptability of the environment, the final who can get the final victory may be an unknown number.

Zod foot in the void, a punch out, as if a cannon boom, shocked out of the invisible ripple sound wave.

Luke blocked his hands in front of his chest, withstanding the amazing force, his body also involuntarily backward.

Zod grinned, revealing a cruel smile.

The successive high-intensity battles have brought him back to the feeling of the old days.

The blood gradually boiled in his body like a boiling volcano!

Zod leaped up, like a hunter who caught the moment, his armor-covered arm raised high, like a sharp sword cutting down!

"I'm not the same opponent you've encountered in the past."

Luke's temperament is calm, hot energy erupts from his body.

Like a human torch, releasing huge amounts of light and heat.

Zod, who was pursuing the attack, suddenly felt a deep chill.

He hurriedly clasped his head with both hands, and the terrible shock wave directly blew himself out.

The dark and endless universe of space lit up a little shimmering light, and then quickly dimmed.

Luke walked in the void, deep eyes gazing at the somewhat wretched Kryptonian general.

Zod's formidable black armor was now in tatters.

The billowing cloak was also half destroyed. Luke's sudden attack just now had obviously caused him to suffer a little.

"Why continue this meaningless battle any longer ...... General, I came with the sincerity of cooperation, and I also proved to you that I have enough strength and qualifications for equal dialogue."

Hearing Luke's voice, Zod pondered for a moment.

The violent and fierce light in his eyes gradually dissipated, and the mountainous killing intent disappeared.

The Kryptonian general is not a brainless reckless man, as a qualified military leader.

He actually has a strong sense of the big picture, as well as the ability to think calmly.

Luke's strength is powerful, if they must be their enemies.

Then whether it is Zod, or around the companion, have to pay a great price.

Weighing the pros and cons, the Kryptonian general glanced at Luke and returned to the ship in silence.

The latter followed closely behind, stepping into the bridge.

The two enemies, who had just engaged in a fierce battle, returned to the negotiating table in a moment.
