Chapter 485: The World of the Dead
For the first time, the Black Death Emperor had doubts about it, and indeed as Chen Lu said, destroying the universe was also his pure and only purpose, and they should be the same in this regard. What's more, although the body of the Black Death Emperor is extremely strong, it cannot directly descend into this universe due to the constraints of the White Lantern Existence Spirit, and the only way is to choose a spokesperson for the Black Light, so as to lead the Black Light Legion to destroy all living beings in the universe.
In the previous big event to the Black Night, the Black Death Emperor chose the supervillain Black Hand as his incarnation, if you only talk about the beginning, the Black Hand can still be called a good job. It's just that after the White Lantern also began to act, the weak strength of the Black Hand itself was not enough to continue to lead the Black Lantern Legion to victory. Having learned the lesson of the previous time, the Black Death Emperor also understood that a stronger leader was essential if he wanted to truly achieve his goals.
Now standing in front of him, Chen Lu's body exudes an aura of death that is several times stronger than that of the black hand, not only is he not a complete living person, but the lives that have disappeared on him have exceeded tens of billions, and even the powerful anti-surveillance person has been captured by him as the energy source of the black light furnace, as the leader of the black light army, it can be said that it is very suitable.
But the Black Death Emperor was still hesitating, so in addition to Chen Lu, he had recently gotten another excellent candidate, and it should even be said that this person was originally the leader of the Black Lantern Legion that he had always dreamed of.
"If what you desire is destruction, prove to me that you have that strength." The Black Death Emperor raised his scythe towards Chen Lu, and the latter did not show the slightest flinch even at the moment when the aura of death overflowed. The Black Death Emperor seemed to be able to sense in him what a perfect dictator was, and even the feared entity itself could not bring him to his knees.
A dense black mist emerged from the Black Death Emperor's chest, bypassing the stunned Tony on the side, and directly swallowing Chen Lu's entire person. Chen Lu didn't feel the killing intent from this burst of mist, and he also allowed the Black Death Emperor's energy to surround him, and then teleported to a different space where he didn't know where it was.
By the time Chen Lu regained his vision, he was already in a world of nothingness and chaos, in which everything had faded to color, leaving only the monotonous colors of pitch black and gray and white, and even lightning was as black as a crack in the sky. Around Chen Lu, countless translucent ghosts were wandering, they were the dead he had killed, but unfortunately these souls had long lost the power of revenge.
This is the plane of existence of the Black Death Emperor - the world of death, unless it is someone who has been erased by special means, all the dead will eventually arrive here and be imprisoned forever.
Out of nowhere, the voice of the Black Death Emperor came: "Neither life nor death, if you want to control the Black Lantern Legion, prove to me that you have the ability to control death!" Your biggest competitor is here, and without you, he would be the greatest Black Lantern Great. β
In this oppressive space without color, everything is dead and lifeless, and even if there is, it will be destroyed under this merciless black wind. Then there was only a strange green light that shone faintly in this cruel world, as if it was fighting death itself on its own.
Chen Lu understood that this should be the competitor referred to in the Black Death Emperor's words, if it was that man, he should indeed lead the Black Lantern Legion back to the top. But after putting so much effort into dominating the black light, it is no longer possible for Chen Lu to give up this death army to anyone, since you are already a dead man, it is for you to die again.
The greatest Green Lantern sacrificed at the hands of Superman - Hal Jordan!
When Chen Lu arrived, Hal was clenching his fists, driving the green light restraint to reveal a shield against the erosion of countless necromancers in the Death World. His physical body was indeed gone, but his strong will caused Hal to not lose his ability as a Green Lantern even in the world of death.
It is conceivable that the Black Death Emperor has carried out endless harassment in order to transform him, but instead of declining, Har's strength has become even stronger because his potential has been continuously tapped. Soon, he should return to the world as the strongest Black Lantern in the world, as the Black Death Emperor thought.
It's just that whether the Black Death Emperor can let him destroy all the living beings in the universe as he wants, then it is unknown. Only Chen Lu knew that in the big event of "The First Lampman", the Black Death Emperor was controlled by Hal in turn, and he reluctantly killed the First Lampman to save the world. Now that Dr. Manhattan is reshaping the worldline, this should have been retraced as if it never happened, but who said that the result could not be the same again?
Of course, Chen Lu has no plan to let Hal lead the Black Lantern Legion again, and the person who now controls this Death Legion should be him.
Therefore, Chen Lu didn't say much at all, and the moment he approached Hal, he did not hesitate to attack him. A tenfold fist of power easily shattered Howl's open shield, and then his left hand turned into a sharp claw that swooped into Howl's throat.
As a dead man, Hal had no idea what was going on behind the earth, and he couldn't understand what was going on with the sudden arrival of Chen Lu. It's just that the battle-hardened conditional launch drove him to use the light ring to block the attack, and in his haste, he was inevitably scratched on the neck.
At this moment, Halton's situation was not right, in this world of death, all the other necromantic attacks on him were just to infect him and transform him into his own kind, but the wound that Chen Lu tore just now could bring him exact pain, and it was obviously an offensive that really wanted to wipe him out!
"Who the hell are you? Why is it here!? Hal asked anxiously, he also understood that the world of death was a plane that the living could not set foot on, but Chen Lu in front of him was not a dead soul no matter how he looked at it.
Chen Lu has no need to answer Howl's question, Hal as a dead man has no use value for Chen LΓΌ, and the only thing he needs to do now is to completely wipe out his remaining will, and simply make Hal a member of the Black Light Legion, rather than the leader of them.
Several jet-black tentacles erupted from Chen Lu's body, stabbing towards Hal like bullets, and although most of the impact was still blocked by the green light energy, it still managed to add a few more wounds to Howl's body.
Each wound meant a further collapse of Howl's own will.
