At this moment, looking at these new faces, Zod truly felt like they were a race.
It was at this moment that he truly felt a sense of belonging to New Krypton, which he had personally spearheaded.
Facing gazes that were still a little naive but intensely fervent, Zod slowly raised his hand, then gently lowered it.
Immediately, everyone quieted down.
Zod rose into the air, flying onto the high platform, and addressed the new faces, saying:
"Perhaps most of you are meeting me for the first time today, but I have long awaited your birth!"
"From the moment you were tiny embryos in the Genesis Chamber, I have anticipated this day."
"Although during this process, the nascent Krypton faced a slight crisis, fortunately, Krypton still welcomed your birth and achieved continuity."
At this moment, the expressions on the faces of these newborn Kryptonian children became even more reverent and fanatical.
They had systematically learned about these matters at the beginning of their existence.
Moreover, the ironclad rules of loyalty to Zod and loyalty to Krypton had already been etched into their innermost genetic chains.
Hearing Zod's words now directly triggered the underlying logic in their genes.
"The former Krypton has been lost to the dust of history, and you are the hope of Krypton."
"I, Zod, a remnant of Krypton's old era, now wish for you to join me in creating a new era that will make Krypton even greater."
"Are you willing?"
Zod's words instantly ignited the spark in the hearts of all these Kryptonians.
"Yes, we swear to follow the General to the death!"
"Swear to follow the General to the death!"
When nearly ten thousand Kryptonians, with their powers awakened, simultaneously unleashed their aura, the entire sky above New Krypton immediately underwent a dramatic change.
Zod nodded in satisfaction; this was the vision of Krypton he wanted to see.
While Zod was ushering in a new chapter for Krypton, on Oa, the Little Blue Men gathered before the book of oa finally lost complete control of their rigid expressions.
"Madness, madness! These Kryptonian lunatics, the entire universe will be plunged into chaos and panic because of this!"
"Krypton's power is established; who can stop them now?"
"Zod, what secret does he hide? In all the universes we have explored, he has never grown to such a terrifying extent."
After Ganthet and Sayd defected two years ago, the Little Blue Men actually realized that their emotions were gradually returning.
They desperately wanted to strip themselves of their emotions again, as they had billions of years ago, but a voice seemed to stop them from doing so.
By some strange twist of fate, they retained their nascent emotions, but when facing the Green Lantern Corps, they still pretended to be as cold and emotionless as in the past.
However, some in the Green Lantern Corps did notice the changes in the Guardians of the Universe; that person was Sinestro.
He didn't hide anything; he directly went to question the Little Blue Men alone.
As expected, to keep their secret, the Little Blue Men chose to silence Sinestro.
They did not kill him; they merely stripped him of his green lantern ring and imprisoned him in the Central Power Battery.
But what they didn't expect was that this, instead, allowed Sinestro to discover the secret of the Green Lantern Corps' yellow impurity.
If one were to follow the thinking of a normal person, in a situation where such a secret was leaked, the best course of action would be to simply eliminate the one who knew, to put an end to it once and for all.
Unfortunately, the Guardians might have truly lived too long, their brains eroded by time and becoming senile.
Or perhaps they were collectively so immersed in playing the role of the Guardians of the Universe that they couldn't extricate themselves, even deceiving themselves!
They did not choose the simplest and most effective method, but instead adopted their usual method of banishment, exiling Sinestro to the Anti-Matter Universe.
However, Sinestro, who had already witnessed the embodiment of fear, only needed an opportunity.
And the Guardians themselves handed this opportunity to him.
On a planet named Qward in the Anti-Matter Universe, Sinestro had already reached an agreement with an organization called the Weaponers.
They would help Sinestro forge a yellow Lantern ring, modeled after the green lantern ring but powered by fear.
Therefore, the Guardians currently do not know that they are about to gain a formidable opponent.
However, all their attention is currently focused on all the information about Zod displayed in the book of oa.
"Now is not the time to investigate the reasons for Zod's power; we should consider the attitude expressed by the message he had Sinestro convey to us earlier."
"Will he seek revenge on Oa after that new generation of Kryptonians grows up?"
Upon hearing this, everyone's thoughts were pulled back.
Then they looked at one of the Guardians and asked, "Basile, how is the Ultimate Green Lantern project progressing?"
"Everything is going smoothly; that child's willpower is the most outstanding in the history of the Green Lantern Corps; he will become a being that surpasses all Lanterns and becomes the greatest existence."
"That's not the point. What we need to know is, if Zod truly attacks, what is the probability that he will become a true embodiment of will, protecting Oa, protecting the order of the universe!"
"Based on the current progress, there might only be a forty percent chance of success!"
"No, that probability is too low; it must reach at least seventy percent. We must continue to accelerate the project's progress."
"The energy currently being applied to him has almost reached the limit of his current willpower; if we rashly increase the difficulty further, it might cause irreversible damage to him."
Listening to his compatriot's impatient words, Basile couldn't help but frown.
The Ultimate Green Lantern project they spoke of was to concentrate all Green Lantern energy into a being with powerful willpower, allowing him to ascend into an existence similar to an embodiment of will to counter Zod and other threats.
In fact, this project had been secretly underway for a long time, but they had never found a being with sufficiently strong willpower.
However, through the prophecies of the book of oa, they found a child on Earth who might become a Will God.
His name was Hal Jordan. When the Guardians found him, he was still a child under ten years old.
Through time travel, they sent Hal to the past, allowing him time to grow, and he has now become a secret Green Lantern.
At the same time, he was also chosen as the vessel for the Ultimate Green Lantern project.
"We don't have more time. That Kryptonian madman could attack Oa at any moment. We must have a way to contend with him, otherwise everything will cease to exist."
Hearing these words, Basile also fell into a brief silence.
Then a look of determination appeared in his eyes: "I understand!"
