Capítulo 162: Chapter 162: Seven Lantern Corps
Hearing Scar's words, the cosmic guardians had solemn and dignified expressions, displaying a profound sense of agreement and pride.
In the ancient cosmic wars, they emerged victorious.
Moreover, the ultimate weapon of Krypton, Doomsday, was sealed by them, enduring infinite erosion, never to see the light of day again.
"Don't forget, we used to be the Seven Lanterns!" a cosmic guardian couldn't help but remind, seeing the prideful emotions among their kin.
Though the cosmic guardians had mostly channeled their emotions into the Great Heart for the development of the Green Lantern Corps, discarding most of their emotions to attain rationality and calmness, emotions would gradually grow and intensify over time.
Scar was a prime example; her hatred for the Kryptonians amplified her emotions to an abnormal degree.
The cosmic guardians' sense of pride was instantly shattered.
Yes, we used to be the Seven Lantern Corps.
The Red Lantern of Rage.
The Orange Lantern of Avarice.
The Yellow Lantern of Fear.
The Green Lantern of Willpower.
The Blue Lantern of Hope.
The Indigo Lantern of Compassion.
The Violet Lantern of Love.
The former existence of the Green Lantern Corps was called the Seven Lantern Corps, a corps possessing seven different ring abilities, dominating wherever they ventured in the universe.
Until they encountered Krypton...
The Seven Lantern Corps learned for the first time what it meant to fight as a corps, the consequences of the diverse rings falling into Kryptonian hands, and the horrors of Kryptonian genetic manipulation... The Seven Lantern Corps experienced many fights, only to be reduced to just the Green Lantern Corps.
If it weren't for the rampant Kryptonians of the ancient cosmos, who provoked various divine systems throughout the universe, including Darkseid and others, the Green Lantern Corps would have ceased to exist.
"The Seven Lantern Corps was forged through a thousand trials, creating the resolute Green Lantern Corps that upholds cosmic peace and order. The Kryptonians are just the remnant of a defeated faction; there's no place for them in the universe. I will lead a team to Earth to completely eliminate this leading Kryptonian."
Scar rose from her seat atop the pillar, her figure radiating hate and rage as she gazed down at the projection of H'el below.
Watching H'el trample Superman, towering over him.
And she, in turn, was towering over H'el.
"Agreed."
"Permission granted."
"Kryptonians shouldn't exist in this universe."
"This universe cannot sustain Krypton."
"The Book of Oa did not predict his future."
"He has no future."
"Relying solely on Scar isn't very secure, especially when dealing with Kryptonians, especially the exceptional individuals among them. I sense that he and Doomsday are different types of beings. Perhaps they possess similar capabilities to disrupt the universe."
Some cosmic guardians had made inaccurate predictions due to their experiences in the ancient cosmic wars, which made them never underestimate Kryptonians.
Even Kryptonians possessing the genes of generals wielded formidable strength, easily destroying planets, appearing godlike. Especially the destructive power of the ultimate weapon, Doomsday, it took the combined efforts of the strongest individuals in the entire universe to reduce Doomsday to a mere mass of flesh.
They knew how arduous that war had been better than anyone else.
Even as an unconscious mass of flesh, it still struggled to regenerate constantly.
This formidable exceptional individual aroused their vigilance. It was a being who had faced the entire universe and held out for a considerable period before being defeated.
Even the Green Lantern Corps, which currently maintained cosmic order, didn't dare claim invincibility across the universe.
But during that ancient cosmic era, Krypton was indeed invincible for a time, exceptionally wild and dominant.
Wherever their starships went, even the gods bowed down.
So, no matter how much attention the cosmic guardians paid to Krypton, it was warranted. They wouldn't allow Krypton to rise again, recalling the terrifying battles of their past memories.
"We need to prepare manpower, guarding against Darkseid's invasion.
He's been eyeing us, deceived by our portrayal of Oa as the center of the universe, aiming to enter the antimatter universe from the center of the universe, searching for the Anti-Life Equation. We cannot ignore him."
"Indeed, we need to continuously monitor the Doomsday flesh sealed at the core of Oa, to erode it."
"The final warning hinted by the Book of Oa demands our constant vigilance."
"The sealing of the Primal Lantern at the core of the planet is even more critical."
The cosmic guardians outlined each item that required their attention.
Most of them couldn't leave Oa, not just to defend against Darkseid but also to protect the numerous items and life forms sealed within.
If these sealed entities and objects were to escape, each one had the potential to inflict cosmic devastation, plunging the universe back into chaos and destruction.
"Scar, a million legions from each of our respective home planets will back you. Lead them to Earth and eliminate the Kryptonian forces."
"This isn't secure; the Earth's position is too crucial. Earth cannot be destroyed," a cosmic guardian expressed concern.
If Earth were to be destroyed, it would create an opening to the antimatter universe, allowing Darkseid to become aware of its existence. Regardless of whether Darkseid finds the Anti-Life Equation or if antimatter flows into their universe, it would be a catastrophic disaster.
Earth's safety is paramount.
"Scar and I will go. We'll confine the battle to space. We'll swiftly eliminate the Kryptonian leader," another cosmic guardian stood up.
"Agreed."
The guardians nodded in agreement.
The power of these two guardians was almost sufficient to dominate the cosmos; they could travel to any star system unscathed, even facing Darkseid in Sector 38, and escape his grasp.
"We need to create eight million temporary Green Lantern rings that last 24 hours. Besides attacking the Kryptonians, they can also serve as Earth's protection," a guardian reminded.
While killing the Kryptonians was crucial, protecting Earth was equally vital.
The cosmic guardians nodded in agreement, immediately contacting their respective planets to prepare millions of troops and temporary Green Lantern rings.
"This isn't solely the responsibility of the Green Lantern Corps; it's also the responsibility of the Earth deities. We once assisted the Olympic gods in eliminating other pantheons critically injured by Kryptonians, allowing them to reign as the sole deities near Earth, recuperating and safeguarding the planet. We share a collaborative relationship in both offense and defense."
"Scar, Yak, head to Earth. Contact the Olympus gods first. They possess divine powers and magic that can inflict profound injuries on Kryptonian flesh."
The cosmic guardians revealed a dark chapter post-Krypton's defeat, where, to maintain cosmic peace and prevent a repetition of the war for divine dominance, they, along with the Olympus gods, covertly assassinated most of the slumbering deities.
"I'll gather every ounce of strength against the Kryptonians and annihilate their remnants completely!"
Scar's lips curled into a cruel smile.
Shortly after,
Cosmic guardians Scar and Yak, accompanied by Hal, along with a group of Green Lanterns summoned by Hal, including Sinestro, initiated a green shimmering passage and journeyed towards the solar system.
