American comic book: Start as a corpse collector, choose to cultivate immortality with technology

After hearing Tony's question, Ophelia, Diana, and the other women pondered for a moment.

Before the women could speak...

Clark, who had just arrived, frowned slightly and said, "Godmother, everyone, I may know something about Krypton."

In an instant, everyone's eyes turned to Clark.

Diana, in particular, showed a hint of concern, saying, "Clark..."

“Don’t worry, Godmother!” Clark nodded to Diana first, then smiled wryly, “If the video call just now was real, the person they were looking for might be me.”

“Not long ago, following some information left by my godfather, I found a family spaceship in the Arctic.”

"My original name was Kal'el. I was born into a family of scientists and governors on Krypton, but Krypton was completely destroyed twenty years ago."

"I always thought I was the only Kryptonian left in the entire universe."

"As for Druid, I learned about him on the family ship. He's a born Kryptonian general who was exiled by the High Tribunal for rebelling against Krypton..."

Hearing Clark's words, the expressions of everyone present changed to varying degrees.

Fortunately, with Diana and the women of Dragon Ball Island around, not one of them suggested handing Clark over.

Just as the Avengers were discussing how to deal with General Zod...

Meanwhile, in a black spaceship in outer space, General Zod, with a resolute expression, was also having an interstellar conversation.

The person in that video is Thanos, who is known as the ruler of the universe.

"General Zod, if I may be so bold, you shouldn't have informed humanity on Earth in advance. Although the civilization on Earth in region C53 is not advanced, due to some special reasons, there are quite a few extremely powerful life forms on this planet. You underestimated them, and this will make you taste defeat."

"Mad Titan, war is my specialty, so you don't need to worry about it."

“Druzod, you seem to have forgotten that I was the one who rescued you from the Phantom Zone. You should know that there are many more terrifying prisons in the universe than the Phantom Zone.”

Thanos's words were very oppressive, and even threatening.

If this had happened before Krypton was destroyed, Zod swore that if the other side dared to threaten him like that, the Kryptonian army would have beaten Thanos to a pulp.

But now, there are hardly any Kryptonians left in the entire universe.

In life, one should be a little more pragmatic.

Zod bowed slightly and said, "Thanos, I will keep our promise and help you find out the deployment of forces on Earth. However, I have just come out of the Phantom Zone and need some time to undergo genetic regeneration."

As he spoke, Zod glanced meaningfully at the yellow sun outside the window.

Thanos remained expressionless and said, "You'd better keep your word!"

Chapter 695 Thanos's Plan, Carol, Who Can't Be Messed With

Kryptonians possess an innate, hidden gene that allows them to evolve by continuously absorbing the power of the yellow sun.

In the tactics that Zod and Thanos had discussed in advance.

Zod and the other Kryptonians need to act as the vanguard to wage war against Earth and lure out as many hidden powerful beings as possible.

In a sense, Zod and his group could only be considered cannon fodder, or rather, bait.

However, Zod did not launch a surprise attack on Earth immediately after entering the solar system.

Unlike the arrogant and conceited General Zod in the original movie storyline.

The true Zod was a perfect general nurtured by generations of generals during Krypton's 100,000-year gestation period, possessing a beast-like intuition in any aspect of combat or warfare.

Know thyself, ever-victorious!

Even when facing an indigenous civilization that had not yet entered the interstellar age, Zod did not underestimate it in the slightest.

In fact, during his several conversations with Thanos, Zod had already sensed Thanos's extreme caution and apprehension towards Earth.

So Zod, risking offending Thanos, ultimately chose to stall for time.

Under the yellow sun, Zod and the other Kryptonians will soon unlock the hidden genetic locks within their bodies.

Only in this way, after possessing a certain level of power, can we gain more space to survive in the war between Thanos and Earth.

While Zod and his allies were stalling for time and hesitating to launch an attack on Earth,

Inside a massive warship in deep space.

Thanos, a massive and incredibly strong figure, wearing a golden helmet and exuding an overwhelming aura of dominance, sat atop a stone throne that floated in mid-air.

Not far below Thanos, Steppenwolf, clad in silver armor, had his brows furrowed tightly.

I glanced at the Kryptonian spaceship that was stuck in the virtual image.

Steppenwolf's gaze slowly shifted to Thanos, and he said, "Mad Titan, your plan seems to have encountered some problems. These Kryptonian survivors you painstakingly rescued from the Phantom Zone don't seem to be as obedient as they appeared..."

"No!" Thanos interrupted Steppenwolf cleanly, saying, "My plan has succeeded."

Steppenwolf: "..."

Do you even know what nonsense you're spouting?

Thanos ignored Steppenwolf's bewildered look and said to himself, "Whether or not those Kryptonian remnants attack Earth, it will not affect my plans."

"The outcome was already decided when they came into the sight of humanity on Earth."

Steppenwolf: "..."

Thanos was utterly speechless.

No wonder Steppenwolf possesses the power of a near-Celestial Father, fighting daily, yet still managed to owe Darkseid 5 worlds. With that kind of intelligence, it's a miracle he didn't die from being tricked.

Damn, Darkseid is so lucky.

Why don't I have any people with the power of a Heavenly Mandate Holy Body working under my command?

Forget it, arguing with this kind of person will only lower my IQ.

Thanos paused, then explained, "It's better for the Kryptonian remnants to stay in outer space. This will attract all the high-level combat forces on Earth to space."

"Once the high-level combat forces on Earth are drawn away, it will be much easier for you to secretly search for the Mother Box."

"Once I obtain the Infinity Gauntlet, you can use the Mother Box to open a spatial portal, and my army and Darkseid's army can then join forces and enter Earth."

"Forget it, I won't go into the complicated plans. Just follow my instructions."

Looking into Thanos's eyes, Steppenwolf felt somewhat offended.

However, this is Thanos's stronghold after all, so it wouldn't be good to turn against him directly.

Steppenwolf didn't quite understand Thanos's plan, but he still forced a thoughtful expression and said, "It's a good plan. I can obey your orders for now, but you must know that this is only because of my master's request. You and I are both at the level of sub-fathers..."

Thanos didn't listen to a word Steppenwolf said, and just ignored it.

And just as Thanos predicted.

At this moment, more than two hours had passed since General Zod hijacked the signal at the Avengers base on Earth.

High-ranking officials from around the world, the Security Council, the Avengers—no one could come up with a definite idea.

On one hand, he learned about the Kryptonians' power from Clark.

On the other hand, although Earth has made great progress in aerospace technology compared to the past, it is now limited to some explorations near Earth and planetary landings.

Space combat is manageable in near-Earth space, but it becomes very difficult once it exceeds the replenishment range of the Space Great Wall.

Zod and his crew's Kryptonian spaceship was too far from Earth.

Earth simply cannot afford large-scale space campaigns or engagements; it can only passively await the invasion of Kryptonian ships and launch a defensive counterattack.

As for handing over Clark, no one dared to bring it up.

Not to mention that Clark himself is a god-like being who has entered the human world, his identity as the godson of Rein Sullivan is enough to intimidate everyone on Earth.

Leaving aside Renn's strength and influence, Renn himself has been a savior several times.

The suggestion to hand over Clark would likely result in the deaths of an entire family, regardless of who made the suggestion. Even if they survived, they would be condemned by over 90% of humanity.

And it was in this slightly restless atmosphere that...

Carroll, who was already short-tempered, finally couldn't hold back and stood up. A flash of golden light from her body silenced everyone who was discussing the differences with the Security Council.

Until then.

Carol then spoke up, "Ophelia, stop arguing with those damned politicians; it won't get you anywhere."

High-ranking officials from various countries projected on screen: "..."

Captain Marvel, right? Ryan Sullivan's lover, right?

Damn it, couldn't you wait until we hung up the video call before you complained? It's a bit impolite to complain to their face like that.

I'm annoyed as much as I am.

The high-ranking officials from various countries projected on screens didn't utter a single careless word, nor did they even show the slightest hint of displeasure.

There's no other reason than the formidable strength of Dragon Ball Island behind Carol.

Carol's own combat strength is enough to shut everyone up.

Records from various countries contain videos of Carol smashing spaceships, as well as footage of Carol's astonishing abilities displayed in previous major battles.

A woman like that is not to be trifled with.
