At this point, everyone began to clean up the aftermath, while Zod stood under the tree of life.
Feeling the vibrant life energy still emanating from it, Zod knew it was fine.
"Fortunately, it wasn't directly destroyed; it only lost half of its canopy. It won't be long before it regrows."
However, looking at New Krypton, which had taken several years of hard work to build only to return to its pre-liberation state in half a day, he couldn't help but feel a sense of helplessness.
But there was nothing he could do, as this was the norm in this world.
Moreover, this outcome was already a blessing in disguise. If it were truly like in the comics, where major events sweeping across the entire universe happened at the drop of a hat,
forget about a few deaths or the destruction of an insignificant planet; even a universe could vanish in an instant.
Regarding this, Zod could only comfort himself in his heart: "Fortunately, the most crucial codex is still here, so everything can start anew. At most, it will just take more time."
After advancing to the Immortal Stage, he now had a meager ability to protect himself in this universe. Zod could now relax a little and didn't have to be so urgent.
Thinking that he still had three Extracted opportunities he hadn't used, Zod wanted to see if he could obtain something useful for the current situation.
So, he directly separated a wisp of his consciousness and entered the system space.
"System, I want to draw!"
Having drawn many times before, Zod calmly watched the pointer spin.
When he saw the world the pointer slowly stopped at on the turntable, he had a bad premonition.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a meteor hammer. This item comes from the 'My Own Swordsman' world and is one of Tong Xiangyu's dowries, the proprietress of Tongfu Inn. It has considerable lethality against ordinary people!"
"???"
Seeing this Extracted result, Zod was immediately filled with question marks.
"System, you didn't make a mistake, did you? What kind of rubbish did you draw for me?"
Previously, Zod had been quite worried about drawing from those ordinary or even low-martial worlds that appeared on the turntable, but his smooth journey had gradually made him forget this concern.
However, he didn't expect the system to teach him a harsh lesson this time.
Looking at the tattered meteor hammer in his hand, Zod almost wanted to cry.
"It has considerable lethality against ordinary people. Right now, I can blow away a large number of ordinary people with just a casual breath. This is really an inauspicious start!"
Immediately, a wisp of Sun True Fire appeared on his hand, instantly incinerating the broken hammer.
"System, don't cause any more trouble!"
Before drawing again, Zod muttered this to the system in his heart.
The pointer spun again. This time, Zod stared intently at the direction it slowly stopped, feeling a hint of excitement, because he saw a blue robotic cat without ears.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the time cloth. This item comes from the Doraemon world. Covering a person or object with its red side accelerates the passage of time, while covering it with its blue side reverses time."
"Divine artifact!"
When he saw the red and blue square cloth, imprinted with clock patterns, looking like a tablecloth, the words "divine artifact" immediately appeared in his mind.
The world of Doraemon, if viewed through a child's eyes, is indeed a world that can bring infinite joy.
But if one looks at that world through the eyes of an adult, it becomes terrifying!
Some heaven-defying tools, capable of overturning the world and even involving conceptual levels of rules, were actually used to entertain children.
Just like this time cloth, which looks like an ordinary tablecloth, it contains the most mysterious and unfathomable laws of time.
It sounds absurd, but it is also a fact.
Moreover, who knows how many such law-level tools the blue fat cat's four-dimensional pocket contains.
Forcibly suppressing the excitement in his heart, Zod prepared to use his last Extracted opportunity as well!
With the time cloth as a fallback, he felt he could accept whatever he drew next.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Make complaints energy collector. This item comes from the 'One Hundred Thousand Bad Jokes' world. It is a device created by the Make complaints people to collect Make complaints energy. Wearing it allows one to control Make complaints energy."
Looking at the single strand of hair in his hand, Zod's face twitched slightly.
"Although I had lowered my expectations for the last draw, what you drew for me is too abstract! I have to complain while fighting to accumulate energy!"
"Clearly, this so-called Make complaints energy collector is just a variation of the green lantern ring, isn't it?"
"I think Rhode and Deadpool from the Marvel world next door would love this thing. Only those chatterboxes are most compatible with it."
Looking at this thing, Zod only felt certain past, dead memories furiously attacking him.
Just as Zod couldn't help but complain, the single strand of hair in his hand suddenly stood up and emitted a golden glow.
At the same time, a voice reached his ears: "Detecting a large amount of Make complaints energy, collecting it now!"
Hearing this, Zod immediately shut up!
In fact, this thing is not weak if you really think about it. After all, it comes from a world of unrestrained and humorous animation, so it cannot be judged by conventional logic.
In the original work, the protagonist, through a single complaint, inadvertently caused the Make complaints energy to go berserk and out of control, instantly blowing up half the Earth!
With Zod's current strength as a Super Kryptonian and his Immortal Stage First Heaven cultivation, activating the divine ability "Great Sun Across the Sky" would probably be no more powerful than that.
Not to mention, the final explosion of Make complaints energy directly destroyed the black hole that could devour planets!
Now, his casual two complaints made this single strand of hair start collecting energy, which proved that this thing was indeed real.
"Perhaps in the next batch of Genesis Chamber gestation plans, I can selectively gestate some clansmen with this kind of personality!"
"After all, once they master this energy, they can quickly become top-tier combatants for the current Krypton."
Zod had already made a decision in his heart, and then temporarily put the single strand of hair back into the system space.
He wanted to test the effect of the time cloth first.
Without any hesitation, he flew directly to the corpses of Leto and the others, then covered Leto's corpse with the blue side of the time cloth.
Fiora looked at Zod's actions and asked, somewhat puzzled, "General, what are you doing?"
Zod calmly said, "Repairing their bodies!"
"?"
Although everyone was puzzled by Zod's words, they didn't question him at all.
At the same time, they were all curious, wondering if the general's so-called item for repairing the bodies of the dead was this tablecloth-like thing?
Even the Martian Manhunter watched this scene with a look of astonishment.
After a few breaths, although no unusual phenomena appeared as everyone had imagined, when Zod lifted the time cloth, Leto's body, which had been broken in two, had been restored to its intact state.
"It works, indeed. Then you all will have a chance to be resurrected!"
Looking at Leto's intact corpse, Zod said softly.
Although his voice was very low, everyone present was not an ordinary person, so they naturally heard it clearly.
