Chapter 36: Ch: 36 A Dark Plan.
Once his Honor Guard supplied him with their blood for him to work with he got to work. In his Cloning Lab he also had Slade, Ra's, Manbat, Scarecrow, and Killer Croc piled into a corner unconscious.
He ignored them as he pulled out the three clones from their pods, but he kept them unconscious through his psychic abillities. Kryptonians were very weak to psychic attacks even more so than magic.
Once they were out, he strapped them to medical tables after feeding them a Potion made by his Alchemists to promote blood recovery. He also gave them a Vitality potion that would prevent the clones from dying from lack of vitality from their blood.
He then hooked their veins to machines that would extract their blood for him. After scanning the clones he learned what he expected. The first clone, Match was made with pure Kryptonian DNA from Superman, but there were genetic gaps since humans didn't fully understand Kryptonian DNA.
The next clone Super Boy or Conner Kent was the clone that had the gaps in the DNA filled with human DNA. Lex Luthor's DNA was amusing in the sense that Superman and Lex had a child together before Lois Lane.
He almost laughed at the humor in it, but he ignored it. As a result of the human DNA in Conner's DNA, he lacked some of the Kryptonian abillities of Match. As for Galatea, the female clone of Super Girl possibly, her DNA was far more stable and contained very little human in it.
By taking the genes in all three and refining the DNA through his Biomancy, he could not only fill in the gaps but make pure, stable DNA. Of course, once he had refined the blood, he then went back again using all his other techniques.
His Psymagic, his genetic engineering to begin to remove all of the undeeded aspects such as a weakness to Red Sun Light, Kryptonite, Magic, and Psychic Energy. However, he thought that the former two were going to be erased even without him since his Martians were a Psychic Race undergoing a magic awakening.
Once he had pure Kryptonian blood he then began to fuse it with the blood from his Burning Martian's blood. As a result, he mixed those Kryptonian genes with the Martian it came from.
Once they were mixed, he modified them to grant the Martian the Kryptonian abillities. He repeated that 50 times until he had 50 labeled Vials that said the name of who they belonged to. This only took him around 2 hours and once he finished he summoned his Guardian Spear from his soul.
At this point, the weapon was so saturated in his soul that he suspected the weapon might even become sentient.
"Alright, I believe I am almost finished. Now, just to peek into the future."
Justinian held his spear with both hands as he closed his eyes to view the stream of time. He didn't do this very far as he had no interest in the distant future. He only wanted to know what would happen in the next five to ten minutes.
When he did he saw his Honor Guard all inject themselves with their serums and successfully assimilate the genetics. The abillities they shared with Kryptonians were enhanced while they gained the special ability to absorb Solar Radiation making them even stronger.
When he saw that he knew that it would be worthwhile to also do the same for Tameranians who had a similar ability to Kryptonians.
He pulled himself back from seeing the future before he nodded. He waved his hand and he caused the 50 vials to enter the hands of those they belonged to.
"Inject yourselves."
One by one his Honor Guard stuck needles in their necks injecting the Kryptonian Serums into themselves. Justinian watched as his Honor Guard didn't struggle as their pure Burning Martian genes began to assimilate the Kryptonian genes.
With a smile on his face, Justinian knew in the future his Martians would surpass the Apex Predators of Perpetua. The mix of Human and Martian would not match the perfect Kryptonian and Martian mixture.
One after the other his Burning Martians opened their eyes after they felt invigorated. Remnosh raised her hand and clenched her fist feeling a lot of power coursing through her.
"Honestly, this is just unfair. Just us 50 could take the League."
Justinian shook his head.
"You guys underestimate yourselves, just ONE of you could take on the League. 50 is overkill."
Justinian smiled as he began to do the same with the blood from each of them. All 50 which he mixed with the pure Kryptonian genes. He could already do a lot of the stuff Martians could do, but it would not hurt to have their DNA as well.
"When I finally go after the Terra, you will see how true those words are."
Lauralina sat down as she watched her Emperor and God work.
"What do you plan to do, my Emperor?"
"Good of you to ask, I will have Klarion cast a ritual that will send all of the adults of Terra to another dimension for some time. While the adults are gone, we will gather those under 18 and send them to a school we will build.
The Schola Progenium where we will train those kids to become Inquisitors, Sisters of Battle, Imperial Assasins, or Custodes like me. They can also be trained to be mages, artificers, alchemists, or Shapers if they have the talent.
We will let the adults return in three years when we will be so in control of the planet they will have no choice, but to submit. As for the League, we will be ready to ambush them where we will force them to submit."
As he finished talking he picked up a vial that was far more concentrated on Burning Martian and Kryptonian DNA. He even added his own Perpetual, Dragon, and Custodes blood to the mix.
The mixture glowed a violent blue, gold, and purple as he injected it into his neck. He closed his eyes as he could feel the Blood Serum instantly start spreading through his body.
It was sucked into his Bone Marrow, and just as he expected his Perpetual nature made it seemless. His Biomancy activated on its own and allowed the Burning Martian and Kryptonian abillities to be seamlessly assimilated into his body.
It only took him a few hours and already he had made himself and his Burning Martians even more deadly. He popped his neck as he began to feel himself able to shapeshift, and phase through matter, and he also gained an enhanced affinity to Fire.
'Most of these abillities I already had, though having the genes wouldn't hurt.'
Once he made sure there was no issue in his body or the bodies of his Burning Martians he nodded.
"We are finished, how we all have the power of the Kryptonians. I will build us a sunroom where we can absorb more solar radiation without the weakness that comes from being a Kryptonian."
Sigismund grinned as he knew that he would be an even better swordsman than before. Even the Guardians would fall to his Sword when his body would not break and it would not stop until all his foes were dead.
"My Emperor, I swear my sword to you, I will claim the head of any that dare oppose your will. Be they Guardians, Demons, Angels, or gods. I will kill them all."
Justinian walked over to Sigismund and placed a hand on his shoulder.
"I expect to see it, my Champion. All of you are Elites, with more potential in your hands than any other. Don't let it end shamefully. Return to the throne room."
Each of them bowed their heads before they began to teleport out of his lab except Remnosh and Lauralina. They both looked at the Kryptonian clones who were still hooked up to the blood extraction machine.
Remonosh was quite curious about them.
"What are you going to do with them?"
Justinian in his past life as a human seemed like a long distant past because he had 40,000 years of memories from the four Custodes he was named for. He also had some of the Emperor's memories by becoming his heir.
But he still remembered that life and he knew just how many fanfics had Galatea as a lover. When he looked at Galatea, sure she was attractive, but not as much in his mind.
[I believe I know why that is. You are part Dragon, but you don't have the desire to hoard women like several of my previous hosts. No, you have a desire to hoard power and knowledge.]
{Reminds me of myself since I was not as driven by females like Ddraig. It doesn't help that you surround yourself with those two hotties. You do like female Primarchs don't you?}
'Sure do, it is just hard to get attracted to 'normal' women. This is a Kryptonian, but to me, she looks plain. Diana on the other hand, I find very attractive both in personality and looks.'
[But you are willing to let her go for power, for the Mother Box her people have?]
'I am.'
{Will you regret it?}
'Maybe I might, but what is the alternative?'
[Me and Albion, let us do it for you. We will invade Themyscira for you, we can act like something unrelated to you. We will raze it to the ground if we have to, all you have to do is act like you want to try to stop us.
Even if you destroy our Avatars our true souls are with you in the Boosted Gear and Divine Dividing. Think about it, we can make it so Diana won't hate you, and deal with the annoying Amazons.]
{Not a bad idea Ddraig. What do you think Justinian, you just let us unleash our rage on the island, and you swoop in acting like a hero.}
With a growing grin on his face, Justinian liked the sound of that.
"Ddraig, Albion you are geniuses."
Remnosh tilted her head.
"How are those two dragons Geniusus?"
Justinian smiled as he explained the plan.
"Remember my friend Diana, I like her quite a bit, but not enough to let it get in the way of my power. Her people of Themysciria have an Apokoliptian Device called a Mother Box from the distant past when Darkseid invaded Earth.
They left three of those and I plan to assimilate them into my armor and to do that I was going to invade her people's island with an army of Space Marines to get it. Instead, Ddraig and Albion will take their Dragon Forms and they will attack the island for me.
We let them nearly destroy it and then we swoop in acting like we are there to save them. While we do that, I will send one or both of you to retrieve the Mother Box."
Lauralina grinned as that sounded like a great plan.
"This is a good idea, you told us about her, the daughter of Zeus. One of the Old Gods unlike Darkseid who is a New God. If you do manage to seduce her to your cause, you could secretly take her blood and gain access to those old genes for your clones."
"Bingo. Good job Lauralina, you are as pretty as you are smart."
When she blushed, the many magic tattoos on her body lit up like a blush. Remnosh rolled her eyes at that.
"A good idea is a good idea. That reminds me, what will you do about Darkseid when you face him?"
Justinian merely stabbed his Guardian Spear into the ground.
"I will stab this in his Evil Heart, the god-killing effect should at least kill that shard of his Avatar. Killing the real Darkseid is a distant goal, but we can at least make it painful for him."
Justinian would use Ddraig and Albion's Soul Destroying Fire and Poison, fuse that with his Spear's ability to kill gods, and Boost a bunch of times. That should leave even Darkseid in agony.
In the meantime, he dragged Slade and Ra's over to his side.
"Alright, want to help me start making the genetic source for my army of clones?"
Both of his female Primarchs nodded as they walked over to help him in any way they could.
