197 Chapter 197: Various Threats

Ganthet, standing at 1.2 meters tall, wore a red robe with prominent green lantern symbols on his chest and abdomen. Floating in the air, guided by auxiliary robotic bodies, he passed through the metal corridors of the Zero Universe Mothership, his eyes scanning the facilities of the ship.

"A regular yet special warship," Ganther commented, judging that this kind of warship was only ordinary in the eyes of the cosmic guardians.

Perhaps the Zero Universe Mothership had other facilities that he hadn't seen, but they wouldn't surpass his evaluation by much. The cosmic guardians had seen too many of these warships traversing the universe.

Ordinary, yet very special, especially since this warship seemed to possess life.

Considering that he had seen many warships transform into mechanical beings with significant life-like qualities, Ganther could draw a conclusion.

He was within the body of a living warship.

A warship with a living being was quite special. Even for the cosmic guardians, who were well-versed in the various miraculous races of the universe, this kind of mechanical life form was unheard of.

Guided by the auxiliary robotic body, Ganser entered the spacious conference room projected with a vast starry sky and saw the Emperor of Krypton, leaning back while also leaning his face to his hand, sitting leisurely on the steel seat, his indifferent gaze fixed on him.

"I am Ganther."

Approaching, Ganther's seat rose from the ground, its base rising to his 1.2-meter height, allowing him to meet H'el's gaze.

Ganther settled into the seat, feeling comfortable and satisfied.

Although this Emperor of Krypton seemed arrogant, he didn't allow his arrogance to override reason, making him vastly different than a regular Kryptonian.

"The Emperor of New Krypton, you have proven yourself to possess the power to stand in the universe. The cosmic guardians are willing to exchange five lives for a resource-rich young stellar system to end the war."

Seated, Ganther laid out the conditions of the cosmic guardians.

As long as the Emperor of New Krypton could be led away from the solar system, not to mention one stellar system, even ten or a hundred would suffice.

The position of Earth was too awkward, making it difficult for them to act.

"The cosmic guardians have little sincerity. If I win this war, the solar system will be mine, and Earth will be mine!"

Where else could there be a planet as good as Earth?

Earth was the center of the universe, the site of all events couldn't be far from the solar system.

Besides, they probably wanted to lure him away from Earth to take over New Krypton.

Ganther shook his head regretfully and said, "Earth has already been promised to the gods of Olympus. It is the territory of Olympus." Then, he pondered slightly.

"The life-bearing planets in the solar system are worth a thousand solar systems. We, the cosmic guardians, are committed to safeguarding the order and peace of the universe and do not wish for you to engage in war with the gods of Olympus in the universe."

"It seems there's no other way. In order to avoid becoming enemies with the gods of Olympus in the future, I'll have to kill five people to prevent them from becoming potential threats," H'el said, his face adorned with a false smile, his eyes playing with ambiguity.

"You dare!" Ganther's face turned stern with anger, and he shouted loudly. A majestic aura formed a huge magnetic field, bursting out, causing ripples in the starry sky projection throughout the conference room.

His small figure erupted with a grandeur that seemed to collapse the entire universe.

The false smile on H'el's face disappeared, replaced by an expressionless countenance and cold eyes. He sat firmly on the steel seat, extending his right hand outward to construct a spatial channel, directly transporting Yak to his hand.

His hand pressed down on Yak's head. Yak, having endured the impact of high-energy particles at the speed of light, had his energy shattered, his genetic information scattering, his body emaciated and skeletal, his eye sockets sunken into a skull-like shape, barely conscious.

"Since when do I need your opinion when executing spoils of war?" H'el's face was ruthless as he pressed Yak's head with his hand, his fingers indenting his skull and his limbs hanging limply, Yak's emaciated form resembling a skeleton.

"Yak!" Ganther's erupted aura surged like a raging storm, his eyes showing veins and bloodshot threads as he witnessed Yak's appearance.

Yak's condition was almost critical, nearing death.

The impact of high-energy particles at the speed of light had dispersed the energy that could regenerate his body, and the resilient genetic material of his flesh had been pierced by the high-energy particles at the speed of light, leaving only the last vestiges of instinctual willpower, which sustained the integrity of his genes.

Yak was barely hanging on.

Ganther took a deep breath, controlling his emotions, withdrawing his overwhelming aura. The starry sky projections around him gradually returned to calm amidst the ripples.

"What do you want, Emperor of Krypton!" Ganser's face was stern, his gaze shifting from Yak's skeletal face to H'el, staring at him directly and speaking in a deep voice.

"The flesh of... Doomsday."

H'el had already reached the limit of his limits. His body had no room for further advancement, but perhaps the flesh of Doomsday could push him further, making him even more powerful.

Learning from Athena that Doomsday had once been successfully created was an unexpected surprise.

Only this ultimate weapon of Krypton could help him.

"The flesh of Doomsday is sealed in the desolate outskirts of the universe, without a chance of retrieval. You cannot obtain it," Ganther lied without batting an eye, his heart calm.

At the same time, he was secretly shocked, wondering who had informed H'el about Doomsday's existence.

Fortunately, not many knew that Doomsday had been sealed on Oa.

Some might know of Doomsday's existence, but they certainly didn't know its exact location.

"My psychic power senses that you're lying. It seems you don't care about your own kind," H'el said coldly, his hand pressing on Yak's head, his fingers exerting force.

Yak's head immediately 'cracked' under H'el's grip, his skull fractured, and his fingers forcefully closed.

Yak's head was like a ripe, squashed pineapple, his skull shattered, his head crushed by H'el's large hand, brain matter and blood oozing out of his skull.

Yak died in H'el's hand just like that.

"Yak!" Ganther was shocked, rising from his seat, his eyes furious, his red robe billowing without wind, his overwhelming aura violently dispersing, causing the starry sky projections in the conference room to 'sizzle' and extinguish, revealing the vast white conference room.

H'el remained motionless, throwing Ayak's corpse aside like a rag, his hand flashing intensely with spatial reactions, creating a spatial channel that connected to the planet turbine, bringing Scar's body into his hands.

The condition of Scar was worse than Yak's, with holes appearing in the blue skin, leaking an amorphous liquid, only instinctual consciousness maintaining the integrity of the genetic material.

"You have one more chance!" H'el's eyes sneered, his merciless fingers pressing down on the Scar's skull, penetrating the fragile bone.

Ganther was horrified and furious, his face showing veins, glaring at H'el, gritting his teeth as he suppressed a low roar from deep in his throat. "Kill her! The priority of Doomsday is more important than the life of every cosmic guardian."

He didn't back down, even if he saw cosmic guardians die in front of him.

The stakes were too high with Doomsday, and the cosmic guardians were prepared to sacrifice their lives to contain it.

No threat could change that.

H'el narrowed his eyes, and Ganther's reaction confirmed to him that a weapon with the immense potential of Doomsday was worth acquiring.

He casually flicked his hand, opening a spatial channel, and threw Scar to the vortex and into the planet turbine for imprisonment.

"Very well, then I'll use the center of the universe, Earth, to threaten."
