Next, Zod personally took Hope to familiarize himself with the environment of New Krypton.
The last place was where Leto and their bodies were kept.
At this time, they were all lying in transparent energy-gathering crystal coffins; after all, having lost their lives, even if their bodies could autonomously absorb solar radiation, the efficiency was reduced.
And these crystal coffins were all connected to two-headed sunflowers, which could constantly provide them with Sun Essence.
Hope looked at them and asked, puzzled, "Father, who are they?"
"These were once my most loyal subordinates, who followed me to escape the fate of another Krypton's destruction and built the current New Krypton with me."
"But not long ago, a powerful enemy wanted to destroy New Krypton, and they fought to protect it, but I failed to appear in time to save their lives."
Zod told Hope about Leto and their story.
Although he had just been born, the wisdom Hope possessed instantly made him understand Zod's thoughts.
So he sincerely said, "Father, do you want me to awaken them?"
Zod did not beat around the bush and directly asked, "Can you do it?"
"Yes, but I need a lot of energy."
"Do you have any requirements for the type of energy?"
"If it were before I gained life, high-purity lightning energy would be the easiest to convert, but now, any form of energy is fine for me!"
Hearing this, Zod understood; it seemed that evolving from a pure machine into a mechanical life form had brought him quite a few benefits.
Originally, he had thought that if he truly needed only the power of lightning to activate certain abilities, then he would go to Diana, owing her a favor.
Now that Hope said there were no requirements for the type of energy, then everything was fine, and he wouldn't have to trouble her!
The Sunlight's super genes granted him the ability to freely manipulate the energy of the sun above his head.
He could even locate stars across star systems and harness their energy through the dark matter system; it could be said that Krypton lacked nothing now except energy.
So, he immediately said, "Energy is no problem at all; I can provide you with as much as you need."
"Besides that, do you need to make any other preparations?"
Hope gently shook his head: "Just ensure a sufficient energy supply!"
"Do I need to awaken them one by one?"
"No need for such trouble; awakening them simultaneously is a very simple matter for me."
Hearing this, Zod paused for a moment, then immediately said, "Then, let's begin everything!"
Regarding the resurrection, Zod had no intention of dragging his feet.
"Alright, Father!"
Zod nodded, then waved his hand, and all the coffin lids were instantly flung open.
After doing this, he stretched out his hand towards the sun hanging in the sky, and instantly, a special resonance formed between his body and the sun.
Facing a sufficiently close star, such as the sun above his head, Zod didn't even need to enter the dark matter plane to directly access its energy.
"Prepare to receive energy!"
The moment Zod's voice fell, a golden energy burst from his body, heading straight for the sun.
But the next moment, an even more immense energy instantly descended from the sun, targeting Hope.
At this moment, the sky above New Krypton turned golden and brilliant, almost blinding everyone!
Such a massive commotion naturally attracted everyone's attention instantly.
Seeing this scene, Fiora immediately understood and suddenly realized, "So Hope is the key tool the General mentioned for resurrecting Leto and the others!"
Meanwhile, Martian Manhunter looked at Hope with a hint of shock in his eyes; he had already guessed Hope's true identity.
"Mr. Zod, he actually, actually truly endowed that thing with a real soul; he is not a simple robot, but a true mechanical life form."
He could feel genuine mental fluctuations from Hope's body, which only true life forms possess.
The charging lasted less than five minutes before Hope spoke, "The energy is sufficient, Father."
The moment Zod canceled the energy call, Hope raised his hand and released a strange energy light wave that covered Leto and their bodies.
Everyone almost held their breath watching this scene, anticipating a miracle.
"Thump!"
A faint heartbeat reached everyone's ears, followed by a second, a third... Instantly, expressions of wild joy spread across everyone's faces.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
As the energy dissipated, Leto and the others, who had been lying in the crystal coffins, instantly opened their eyes, then flew up into the sky.
At this moment, their faces were full of confusion, and the memories in their minds were a chaotic mess.
Zod flew in front of them, and the few instinctively tried to adopt a defensive stance.
Seeing this, Zod couldn't help but let out a clear shout: "Wake up!"
A soul-shaking sound instantly cleared the chaos in their minds, memories began to revive, and the confusion in their eyes completely dissipated.
Then, their first reaction was not to investigate their resurrection, but to immediately descend without any hesitation, then kneel on one knee.
"Subordinates have offended; please punish, General!"
Zod's face also broke into a smile at this moment, and he raised his hand to help them all up.
After patting each of their shoulders, he said, "Welcome back!"
At this moment, these iron-willed warriors couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion, and everything ultimately transformed into a chorus of "General!" like a torrent of steel.
The next moment, a huge cheer soared into the sky, and an atmosphere of jubilation filled the air above New Krypton.
------
After the celebrations concluded, Leto proactively approached Zod to discuss serious matters.
"General, I wonder by what method you resurrected us. I feel that my body seems to be undergoing some strange changes; my ability to absorb solar radiation has become stronger!"
"This feeling is as if the genetic shackles of our original bodies have been broken!"
Hearing this, Zod's heart stirred slightly, and he couldn't help but form some conjectures:
"The mother box was created by the New Gods, and it inherently transcends the regular material world. What Hope released after charging just now should be a special high-dimensional energy."
"It is this high-dimensional energy that caused the biological particles within Leto and their bodies to interact again, thereby activating their vitality, and their bodies also underwent a positive mutation under the influence of this energy."
Immediately, Zod informed him of the entire process of their resurrection, including Hope's identity.
Leto couldn't help but murmur, "A mother box, truly a fascinating thing!"
"Now, compared to the mother box, you have a more important mission, and that is to formulate the gene evolution serum."
Then Zod also told him about Hel, and at the same time handed him the container holding Hel's brain and heart.
After hearing Zod's words, Leto was first full of shock, then he showed an unprecedented look of fanaticism.
"General, please rest assured, I will decipher the secret of the super gene as soon as possible."
Zod patted him on the shoulder and said, "I believe in you. Once you've done this, there's another surprise waiting for you."
He did not give him the drop of blood he had extracted from himself earlier, as they were two different systems; one must eat one bite at a time, and walk one step at a time.
