"Bronya, look! It's Superman!" Seele exclaimed, pulling Bronya along.

Superman's fame is among the highest in the world. It's normal for someone like Seele, who doesn't read comics much, not to recognize the Red Lantern Ring, but most people can easily recognize Superman.

"Hello, you must be Seele. I've heard Bronya mention you before," Karl greeted the little girl.

"Oh, do you know Bronya?" Seele was a little shy, but Karl's Superman persona greatly mitigated this. Everyone knows that Superman is a great guy, which left Seele with her first impression.

"Yes, she's the one who sent me," Carl said.

“Superman, thank you for coming,” Bronya said, stepping forward. “The situation is urgent. The Red Lantern Ring automatically chose someone filled with rage, and now he’s become a madman who only knows how to destroy.”

Carl nodded: "I understand. You all get out of here quickly, I'll take care of things here."

After saying that, Karl got up and flew towards the depths of the Quantum Sea. He had to resolve the crisis first.

The once dark and tranquil Quantum Sea had now transformed into a raging inferno, where Kevin was slaughtering every living creature that could move. Fortunately, there were only some Quantum Shadows present, so killing them didn't have much of an impact.

However, Kevin will not stay here forever. Once the Quantum Shadow is completely destroyed, his obsession with revenge against the Honkai will guide him back to the real world.

The Lamp Ring is hailed as the most powerful weapon in the universe. Although this is the Lamp Corps' own claim, it shows that the Lamp Ring is definitely not weak. As an interstellar weapon, if it appears outside, almost no one can stop it, and in that case, there will definitely be corpses everywhere.

Carl traversed the sea of ​​fire and saw Kevin, who was continuously unleashing his furious energy.

"Kevin? I didn't expect it to be him wearing the Red Lantern Ring. But then again, he's lived from the previous civilization until now and has been sealed away for so long. No one can match his anger towards the Honkai."

"But you're not using your anger in the right place right now."

Before the other party could notice him, Carl used his super speed to close the distance instantly and grabbed the other party's ring.

But Carl underestimated the power of anger. The red light ring was much hotter than he had imagined. Just like an ordinary person accidentally touching a motorcycle exhaust pipe without warning, Carl reflexively withdrew his hand.

His fingers were covered in red flames, flames that could burn in a vacuum and would never go out as long as the energy was not exhausted.

The flames are the Red Lantern Legion's main offensive method, and they can even burn through the energy of other Lanterns. Carl had never seen a Lantern ring other than the Ringmaster's, and he suffered a loss, his fingers burning painfully from the Red Lantern's unique flames.

Kevin had already reacted by then. He clenched his fist and used the Red Lantern Ring to unleash a powerful energy shock on Karl, sending Karl flying into a half-destroyed world bubble.

Kevin then concentrated and compressed the energy of the red light, forcibly binding the blazing flames into the shape of a greatsword.

This isn't a ring shaping technique; Red Lantern isn't good at that. Kevin is just relying on his combat instincts to forcibly shape the energy into the same form as his most familiar weapon. Objectively speaking, this doesn't increase output; instead, it increases energy consumption.

Karl rose from the ruins of the World Bubble. He looked at his palm, which was still burning with flames, took a deep breath and blew on it. Instantly, a faint frost formed on his fingertips.

Karl clapped his hands and said, "That hurts quite a bit. It's no wonder it's a cosmic-level weapon. But if you want to defeat me, you'll need at least an entire legion."

Karl crouched on the World Bubble, gathering his strength. The surrounding rocks were lifted up by the bio-force field and swirled around him, just like an asteroid belt around a planet.

After accumulating enough power, Karl suddenly shot into the sky, and the world bubble beneath his feet shattered at the same time.

Kevin then brandished his flaming greatsword, simulating his strongest attack: Heavenly Fire Unsheathed – Annihilation.

The flames formed a blood-red ocean, covering the sky and the earth. Everything caught in it would be reduced to ashes in an instant. No, the red light energy could burn non-flammable materials, so nothing hit would even leave ashes.

However, Karl was clearly not among them. He spun at high speed during his flight, like a whirlwind, and broke through the sea of ​​fire before the red light energy could reach him.

"I remember that fusion warriors like you have very strong vitality, right!"

Using the momentum from his high-speed flight, Carl punched Kevin in the chest.

Instantly, Kevin spewed out countless flames, which were the red light energy that replaced his blood. This caused him to lose his heart, but at the same time, it greatly strengthened his body.

Other light rings require the user to consciously allow the ring's energy to cover the entire body in order to achieve a defensive effect, but the red light ring's energy is constantly filling the user's body.

It was precisely for this reason that Kevin was not punched through the body by Carl.

Looking at the severely injured Kevin, Carl delivered another chop to the back of his neck, not to sever his throat, but simply to knock him unconscious.

At that moment, Karl heard Bronya's voice.

"Superman, come back quickly! The Sea of ​​Quanta is closing!"

Karl looked up and saw that the vortex in the distance had shrunk to only two meters in diameter. Once the Eye of the Abyss closed, they would never be able to leave the Sea of ​​Quanta again.

Kevin waited 1500 years for this opportunity; if he missed it, who knows how long he would have to wait.

Unless Seele punches the Sea of ​​Quanta open with seven punches.

Just kidding, Karl, carrying Kevin in one hand, charged toward the Eye of the Abyss at a speed of over 100 Mach.

Seele and Bronya were waiting for him at the exit, but in the blink of an eye, Karl had already brought them back to Abyss City. The two were petite, and Karl could easily carry them in one arm.

Karl put the three down, and the Eye of the Abyss behind him closed.

“I’m back,” Bronya said, her tension subsiding.

"Yes, we're finally back!" Seele was much more excited. She had been alone in the Sea of ​​Quanta for several years, during which time she could only talk to herself through her dual personality.

"It's good that you're all alright, but this doesn't seem like the place to talk. There are a lot of monsters gathered around this underwater city," Karl said, listening intently.

Those were Honkai Beasts attracted by the Eye of the Abyss. Because of their presence, the people in this base were forced to evacuate, leaving behind only an empty city.

Chapter 122 Will it answer if you call its name?

“I’ll take care of them, Bronya. You two keep an eye on the prisoners,” Karl said, pointing to Kevin beside him.

Bronya was somewhat annoyed: she seemed to have forgotten to tell Superman to try to keep him in the Sea of ​​Quanta, and now she couldn't open the passage again. Sure enough, there was nothing Bronya could do.

Bronya felt a pang of guilt, but outwardly remained calm and said, "Don't worry about it, leave it to us."

Karl nodded and flew away from the scene, while Bronya stayed by Kevin's side, explaining her recent experiences to Seele.

At St. Freya Academy, she only told everyone that she could go to other worlds, which made everyone think that she had only been to the DC world. But Bronya told Seele everything she knew.

……

Karl arrived in Abyss City, which had been occupied by Honkai Beasts. Since they lived in the ocean, most of these Honkai Beasts looked like jellyfish or crabs.

Karl used his thermal vision to scan the surroundings, clearing out a large number of Honkai Beasts. Then, Karl picked up a crab-shaped Honkai Beast that he had deliberately left behind and began to examine it.

"Honkai energy is a unique feature of this world. If we want to settle here in the future, we must learn more about this energy."

Karl crushed the Honkai Beast's pincers with his hands and felt the energy overflowing from them.

"It seems that Honkai energy is still effective against people like me from other worlds. It is trying to erode my cells, but it is too little. The cells can ignore it with their automatic metabolism."

While studying, Karl was also clearing out the Honkai Beasts in Abyss City. There were tens of thousands of Honkai Beasts gathered here, attracting the entire Pacific Ocean. If others were to deal with them, it would take a lot of effort.

……

Bronya was telling Seele a story when she suddenly summoned Heavy Bunny and pointed the cannon at a corner of the room, the place where Gray Serpent had died.

"Who's there? Show yourself!" Bronya shouted.

"Your mech with its automatic enemy-locking ability is so annoying! You managed to spot me again." A figure emerged from the darkness; it was Gray Serpent.

Bronya's pupils contracted in surprise. She had witnessed Gray Serpent being blasted into pieces by the Titan mech, and the fragments of its body were right at its feet. If it wasn't Gray Serpent, then who was this person who looked and sounded exactly the same?

"Bronya doesn't know what methods you used, but Bronya will kill you again," Bronya said coldly.

But the gray serpent immediately waved its hand and said, "I do not intend to fight you. I only want to bring back our Lord. The World Serpent is willing to pay the price. We do not necessarily have to resort to such violence."

Gray Serpent had just seen Karl and naturally recognized his Superman-like appearance. Although he didn't think comic book characters would appear in reality, Karl's initial display of power was genuine, and his own patriarch was still unconscious. The situation was clearly beyond expectations, and if possible, Gray Serpent did not want to start a war under these circumstances.

"Bronya will never cooperate with you!" Bronya's giant cannon was already poised to fire. She had just witnessed the consequences of her adoptive mother's cooperation with the World Serpent, which resulted in the destruction of their base.

"Fine." Gray Serpent sighed, then said sternly, "Since you want to fight, then let's fight!"

His body began to swell abnormally, his muscles inflating like balloons and constantly deforming, as if a monster sealed inside him was now trying to break free.

Just as Bronya was about to fire, a cold voice rang out.

"Grey Snake, stop."

Halfway through its transformation, the gray snake suddenly froze, then its muscles began to retract as it said, "My Lord, you're awake."

Yes, Kevin has woken up. He has a special physique, with parts of Honkai Beasts fused into his genes. Such people can no longer be considered human. In the previous civilization, they were called Fusion Warriors, the vanguard of humanity in the fight against Honkai, using their physique to fight monsters.

Karl didn't hit him too hard; it wasn't particularly serious for him. Moreover, he still had the power of the Red Light within him, which enhanced his recovery ability. After a few minutes of rest, he had regained consciousness.

Just then, Karl appeared on the scene, which relieved Bronya and Seele.

Karl knew that Bronya and Seele could easily handle the Grey Serpent, so he ignored them. But Kevin was different; he was a bit beyond their capabilities.

“It seems you’ve come to your senses and aren’t letting anger cloud your judgment,” Carl said to Kevin.

Kevin nodded: "I was indeed caught in the chaos just now, but I have now successfully taken control of the power."

Kevin clenched his right fist, making the red light ring light up and then gradually dim; he had completely mastered how to use it.

“This force seems to be driven by anger. I have been angry ever since civilization was destroyed. That is my motivation, but not my goal. I will not get lost in anger.”

After fighting Carl, most of the energy in the Red Lantern Ring was depleted, which allowed Kevin's willpower to overcome his anger.

There are no furnaces in this world to quickly recharge the ring, but fortunately, the red light ring keeps the user in a state of anger, and it uses this emotion to slowly recharge itself, meaning the ring can be used indefinitely.

"Let me introduce myself. I am Kevin. Can you tell me who you are? When did a powerful person like you appear on Earth? And this red ring? I have never seen anything like it before. Can you answer my questions?" Kevin asked calmly, showing no sign of his anger.

"Isn't this just Superman?" Gray Snake whispered.

"Hmm? Gray Snake, do you know him?" Kevin asked.

Gray Snake slapped his forehead. He knew him, but that didn't mean Kevin did. During the 1500 years he was sealed, Kevin used a special method to get the World Serpent organization to provide him with information from the outside world. Naturally, modern entertainment wouldn't be mixed into the precious intelligence, so Kevin didn't know what Superman was.

At this point, Bronya said, "Wait, before we answer your question, shouldn't you return the ring to Bronya? It belongs to Bronya."

Kevin glanced at the ring, then put his hand behind his back and said, "You said it was yours, but it chose me as its master."

Kevin has no intention of giving up the Red Lantern Ring. Although his mind was in a state of confusion before, he could feel how powerful he was at that time. He had only ever felt this level of power from the Herrscher of the End.

Oh, now we have to add Karl.

Regardless of the outcome, even if he loses, this power is absolutely cheat-like. Kevin needs the power of the Red Lantern Ring to fight against the Honkai.

Chapter 123 The Fox Borrows the Tiger's Power

With Superman around, many things will be handled differently. Bronya no longer needs to keep Kevin trapped in the Sea of ​​Quanta.

With Superman backing her up, she's now in the dominant position and can slowly figure out the other side's strengths and weaknesses.

Bronya said, "The ring is just a rigid program. It allows you to use it, but that doesn't mean you are its owner."

Kevin certainly understood this principle. In a society governed by law, his argument was untenable. It only seemed reasonable on the surface but could not withstand scrutiny. He said this simply to express his desire to keep the red light ring.

“But it did choose me after all, which means I have a connection with this thing. How about we make a deal? You give this thing to me, how about it?” Kevin said calmly.
