Chapter 7: The Gem of Power
Zod remembered the matter at this time, and said with a sinking face: "You're right, now is not the time to talk about this." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”
He pulled Zhou Xiao into the room, looked at it, there was no one around, and his face was unprecedentedly serious: "Son, there were originally some things that you would tell one by one when you officially took over as the military leader of the Fertier Empire, but ......"
He looked at the world-destroying layers of starry warships in the sky with a sad face—Zhou Xiao found that in addition to the capital legion arranged by the Kryptonians' own military headquarters in Krypton's orbit, a strange-shaped biological spaceship that Zhou Xiao had not seen before was also mixed in.
"Father, this is ......"
"That's the fleet of the Chirita Empire, one of the minions of the Death Titans!" General Zod gritted his teeth.
Zhou Xiao was awe-inspiring. Chirita, that's not ......
Zod interrupted his fugue, "It doesn't matter, son, what matters is that Krypton has its toughest challenge!" Zod said with a stern expression: "Why the Capital Legion rebelled en masse, the father and the council have not been clarified for the time being, but there is a way to be sure that it is ......"
Zod's face was sinister, "It's true that everyone has rebelled!" My father had received a report that something seemed to be wrong with the legion before, but when the military department investigated, he didn't find anything! This is also too unusual for a huge starry sky fleet! Now it seems that the disappearance of the Death Titan before must have tempted the Imperial fleet on the capital star......"
Zhou Xiao blurted out: "Soul Gem!" ”
Zod's light flashed, and he thought of something, and his face became extremely ugly, "That's right, it is estimated that there is nothing else except the Mind Gem that can lure the entire legion at once!" ”
"You found it in the Empire's archives? The mystery of the power of the Death Titan...... "Even if he is about to face the disaster of destruction, Zod is still satisfied and proud of his son's intelligence and precociousness, "The empire has always felt that although the power of the Death Titan is terrifying, it is impossible to subdue so many evil minions for his use at once, and now it seems that the original Mind Gem is in the hands of the Death Titan, no wonder it ......" Zod muttered to himself.
Zhou Xiao: "......"
He was no less shocked than Zod, the reason why he knew that the Mind Gem was in the hands of Thanos was because when he watched the movie in his previous life, the scepter that Loki used to control Hawkeye and Dr. Eric Sevig came from Thanos (it was the Mind Gem that was hidden, and it was used to create Vision at Fu 2), but he never thought that even Zod knew about the Gem...... Is there this in the plot? Zhou Xiao was dumbfounded.
Then he thought that Thanos' disappearance from everyone's eyes before was probably used to build a conspiracy against the Kryptonians. After all, the real Kryptonian civilization is extremely powerful, and the racial ability is against the sky, and if there is not enough preparation, Rao is Thanos will not be able to dominate the empire at once. (This refers to Thanos, who has not yet received 6 Infinity Stones)
It's just that......
Zhou Xiao looked at General Zode, who looked anxious, suspiciously, and said puzzledly: "Father, forget about the rest, why does Thanos want our Life Codex?" You don't want to use it to create a Vortier civilization, do you? He has a soul gem, he really wants the empire to work for him, there is no need to be so troublesome, just use it a few more times, just like the capital legion......"
Zod shook his head: "The empire is not so easy to control, Rao has a soul gem ......" He involuntarily looked at the small safe that he had been holding in his hand.
"The Empire's Own Means of Countermeasures......"
Yes?
But Zode didn't give him a chance to ask more, looked at the time, and finally said impatiently, "Time is running out, son, let's talk about the extra words later, ...... now"
He opened the box and took out something that shocked Zhou Xiao.
"It's ...... The Code of Life? He was shocked.
"Father! How do you have a code of life? Isn't this stored in the Imperial Creation Library, which is not allowed to enter the life tank of the Genesis Library unless signed by the Parliament, the Military Department, and the Academy of Science and Technology? How can it be in your hands ...... father" Looking at the humanoid skull that exuded a golden streamer, Zhou Xiao was dumbfounded.
And Zod was silent and squeezed his big hand hard!
"Father!" Zhou Xiao shouted. But then a purple streamer leaked out of General Zode's hand, and Zhou Xiao's mouth opened suddenly.
Brushing aside the gray bone, Zod pointed to the glowing object and said to Zhou Xiao: "The Code of Life is just a cover for it, and the power gem is the real source of our Vortil's power." ”
"The reason why Thanos wants the Code of Life is because he knows that this is actually a power gem!"
“……”
Zhou Xiao, whose brain is simply not enough. MD, author, you're doing death, what the hell is this, the Kryptonian life code is actually a power gem? Isn't it supposed to be in the Guardians of the Galaxy, the Power Gem...... Now that you get him out, what about the plot of the Guardians of the Galaxy? What about the characters inside? It's all gone? Isn't it said that it is a mixed world of DC \ Marvel? How......
(Again, this is not a comic, nor is it a movie, everything is subject to what the author writes)
Ignoring someone's broken heart, Zod continued: "Specifically, you will ask Eiffel for verification in the future, I have applied to the Supreme Council of the Empire (not the Council of Truth, but the highest authority of the Empire composed of the three) to let you take over as the military leader of Krypton in advance, and the Council agreed, so you can verify some information through him in the future......"
Zhou Xiao glanced at Eiffel, who had been silent, and looked like he was downloading materials or something.
“……”
Without answering, Zod thought he had listened, and continued: "Anyway, son, there is not much time! Father knows that you still have a lot of questions to ask, but let Father help you inject this genetic code, and then wait for the Empire's counterattack to begin, and then flee Krypton......"
He wiped Zhou Xiao's still immature face with a sad expression, and a test-tube-like injection in his hand was quickly inserted into Zhou Xiao's neck artery.
Although he knew that he would not harm himself, Zhou Xiao was still frightened by the cold liquid injected into his body.
"It's okay, it's okay......" Zod's eyes showed infinite tenderness, and he whispered to his son: "My son, this is just a reagent to complete your life code, it is harmless to you, with it, you don't need to be afraid......" He spat out a few words vaguely.
"What?"
"Nothing." Zod shook his head, obviously it had come to this point, there were still some secrets that Zod didn't want him to know. "Alright, son, stay here and ......wait," Zode said with a smile. The Empire's counterattack is unfolding, so you can take the opportunity to escape from here and find a quiet and suitable place to continue our civilization......"
"What about you?" Zhou Xiao opened his mouth with difficulty.
