Chapter 1766 The irresistible temptation to become a god(2/3)
"It's okay, but how long do you want to investigate?" Luther said seriously: "General Lain used Harley's divination to warn us in front of you.
Although I don’t believe in the prophecies that the future is unknown, I will not be arrogant or unprepared.
If the city of Kandor cannot become my ally, I will recruit talents from all over the universe and those with powerful powers.
Just like Beca did during Final Crisis."
Zuo De said: "There is strength in numbers. Regardless of whether Kandor City cooperates with you or not, you can immediately recruit heroes from the universe to jointly conquer Apokolips."
Luther hesitated for a while, then said frankly: "When it comes to road battles, I don't really trust those people.
Now that I have lost all the dark godheads, I plan to condense technology and mecha godheads on my own.
But this is just my idea, not destiny.
I can combine technology and mecha godhead, and so can others.
I'm not afraid of competition, but there are dark elites eying me outside, so now is not the time for internal strife.
In addition to myself, the new human gods who follow me also need to condense their own godhood, and will also have road disputes with alien superpowers.
You Kryptonians are different.
Although your technological level is very high, it is easier for the Man of Steel to take the power-based path to becoming a god.
Like Superman becoming the God of Power.
The New God of Humanity and I don't have strong bodies, so we can hardly comprehend the power of divinity.
So you understand? Humans and Kryptonians have no road dispute and are the best partners."
Zuo De raised two fingers and said, "From now on, after you capture two slave camps again, I will give you an answer."
"Why two? Isn't it enough to take you down a complete camp?" Luther actually didn't want even one, because attacking a slave camp was not an easy task.
If he has Harley's strength and is enough to overwhelm Apokolips, it doesn't matter how many camps there are.
But he is not strong enough and must be cautious in every large-scale military operation. Just gathering intelligence before the battle takes several days.
In addition to the mobilization before the station, material preparation, post-war slave reorganization, camp defense, etc., it may take half a month to a month to win a camp.
"One camp cannot be a universal example. You can rest assured that even as observers, we will not avoid fighting. When encountering tough battles, observers will provide the best possible help." Zuo De promised.
"How many observers do you have?" Luther asked.
"Two hundred soldiers, fifty citizen representatives, and ten councillors, a total of two hundred and sixty, including myself, Allura, and Zoel, the leaders of Kandor City." Zuo De said.
Luther's face looked better, he reached into his right hand again, and said with a smile: "Welcome to the Legion of Hope and Freedom."
...
That night, 260 Kryptonians followed Luther to the "Luthor Space Fortress" in the outer reaches of the solar system.
"This was a gift given to the Earth by the Tamarans after the Darkseid War, and Luther paid to rent it from the government for three years.
The space city has a total of 9 floors, with each floor covering an area of more than 30 square kilometers.
If it is not a permanent residence and only temporarily repaired, it is enough to accommodate tens of millions of mecha warriors.
It is the real headquarters of the 'Hope and Freedom Mecha Legion'.
The space city itself is not equipped with a hyperdrive and can only fly at sub-light speeds at 85% of the speed of light.
If the Dark Elite dares to pursue into the material universe, Space City will sprint towards the interior of the solar system with all its strength.
Hehe, the rule prohibiting the opening of sonic boom channels in the solar system naturally also applies to the dark elite." The Penguin rubbed his fleshy palms and smiled a little obscenely.
It was not Luthor himself who introduced Space City to the Kryptonian representatives.
Just arrange your subordinates to do this kind of thing. Penguin Cobot is the leader of the "Mecha Legion".
His group is the "Penguin Mercenary Group", with thousands of mercenaries.
Luther has 20 million mecha warriors under his command, more than half of whom are mercenaries from major mercenary groups.
In addition to super villains like Cobot who were chosen by the dark godhead, the mercenary group was formed by the earth's plutocrats, celebrities, and the government and military.
"Can the Justice League allow this kind of behavior that obviously diverts disaster to the east?" General Zuo De asked.
"Of course the Justice League doesn't want to wipe our butt for us, but they can't control politics. Space City has a pass from the government, and no one can stop us." Penguin said proudly.
From the moment they entered the space city, the representatives of Krypton started to activate super vision and super hearing.
Hearing Cobot's words at this time, Allura said directly: "The U.S. government has opened the door for you because they have people in the 'Hope and Freedom Corps'? I saw an American general training mechas."
Soldier."
Cobot touched his long, pointed nose, and a look of hesitation flashed in his small eyes behind the lenses.
"It is true that many countries directly mobilize troops to form mercenary groups, but the government's voice is actually not very high.
At least it’s not absolutely true, especially after the introduction of the ‘New Human God Restriction Law’.”
Considering that the Kryptonians were about to become their allies, he still told the truth, "The U.S. government is just the spokesperson of the big capitalists and conglomerates in the U.S.
Even after the introduction of the ‘restrictive laws’, they still have the greatest say.
Some members of those powerful families choose to ascend and become the New Gods of Darkness, while others continue to stay on Earth and become human dignitaries.
Among the current mecha legions, two-thirds of the mercenary groups were formed by them or were supported by them."
While talking, Cobot happened to see an acquaintance in front of him, so he pointed at him and said, "Do you know him? He was once the number one superstar in the NBA.
He received the support of capital and used his personal reputation to call on the strong among civilians to join his ‘Emperor’s Mercenary Group’.”
"What special talent does he have?" Zuo De asked, looking at the big black man.
"Reputation is talent. After all, no matter how rich and powerful the chaebol is, there is no guarantee that the dark godhead will choose him.
However, he was able to rely on his fame to attract new human gods who had been selected by the dark godhead to form a team.
Of course, his own conditions are also very good. He has a strong body and quick reactions. After special training, he has become one of the most powerful mecha warriors in the legion."
Then Cobot pointed in another direction and said with a smile: "You may not know them, they are-"
"I know, the Kardashian sisters, you are the top socialites in the United States." Zuo Aier said.
Cobot asked doubtfully: "Have you also watched their reality show?"
Zoel shook his head, "When the sociologists in Kandor City were studying Earth's culture, they used their sisters as examples to carefully analyze the aesthetics of Earth's people."
Cobot waved his hands repeatedly and shouted in a voice that sounded like crying and laughing: "They cannot represent the aesthetics of men on earth. In fact, your daughter, Super Girl, is the dream lover of most men on earth."
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt that it was too rude to insult someone else's daughter in front of his father.
But before he could apologize, he saw Allura and Zoel's faces showing pride and joy.
Apparently they don't mind their daughters being liked by people on earth.
Cobot stopped talking and pointed at the big-assed sisters and said: "Even they are supported by the big consortium and selected the strongest new human gods from among their fans and lovers to form 'Kadai'
Shan family'."
"They seem to be live broadcasting?" Zuo De frowned.
"Well, they haven't given up on their careers on earth. Now the program "Conquering Apokolips with the Kardashians" has become popular on alien planets, and at least 30 alien civilizations have purchased the broadcast rights.
At present, they have not yet condensed their divinity, but they have already received more than one billion Lann coins in broadcast fees and advertising sponsorships." Cobot showed an expression of envy on his fat face for the first time.
He did a lot of bad things in Gotham and made a lifetime of shameless money. His total wealth is not as good as a live show by the "Big Butt Sisters".
...
Afterwards, Cobot led the Krypton representatives around the center of the space city.
After they almost understood the basic situation of the "Mecha Legion", they were taken to the arsenal on the ground floor and a mother box was distributed to each Kryptonian representative.
"It is the foundation of the new technological civilization of the gods and has very powerful functions. How to use it specifically, you can take it back and study it slowly. I will only introduce to you the method of opening the sonic boom channel..."
Cobot personally demonstrated it to them several times and let them experiment several times on their own.
"With it, you can come and go freely throughout the multiverse."
"What is the principle of the mother box? Have you studied it clearly? It is too powerful and completely beyond the scope of science." Zuo De held his secondary mother box with a shocked and solemn expression.
Cobot shrugged, "Maybe Luther has research, but he didn't tell us, and we don't care.
Just like when we use a mobile phone, we never think about how it works."
"Is it easy to make mother boxes? Almost everyone of you has a mother box, and you have extra ones to distribute to us." Allura also looked a little solemn.
Even without the Justice League and Harley Quinn, Kandor City would not be able to take advantage of Earth's civilization with only the Mother Boxes in the hands of Earthlings.
The Mother Box is really too powerful, with multiverse-level space teleportation, cross-dimensional communication, intelligence that crushes most quantum computers, the ability to fuse armor and weapons to undergo qualitative changes, and the ability to store mysterious energy...
But it is not rare at all, just like a smartphone, everyone has one.
"It is very difficult to make mother boxes. All mother boxes for the New Gods of Mankind come from Luther. On the entire Apokolips, only Luther and Darkseid are probably the only ones who can make mother boxes."
Cobot took out his mother box and let it levitate in front of the Kryptonians, "You see, it is different from your mother box. It is larger, looks more refined and more complex.
Your mother box is a secondary mother box used by demonoids. It can only open sonic boom channels and cannot even communicate cross-dimensional information.
My mother box is a high-end mother box, which is theoretically the same level as the Dark Elite mother box.
