Chapter 179: The War Begins

Subconsciously, Scar pressed her right index finger against her forehead, her figure swaying momentarily, and her darkened vision quickly returned to normal.

The momentary darkness was just the mildest reaction to the mental impact. Any mental power wielder, when subjected to unexpected mental shock, would experience a brief interruption in the transmission of visual nerve information from the pupil's ciliary body anterior root to the choroid posterior.

This was because the pupil was the most outward manifestation of mental power. Most mental power wielders, when weak, used their eyes to manipulate mental power—deception, hypnosis, subconscious suggestion, forcibly inserted memories, and so on.

"New Krypton Emperor!"

As Scar's vision cleared from the blur, she saw H'el, his body strong and perfect, his black battle suit outlining his powerful dynamic figure. His black hair danced in the void, his eyes as deep as black holes, standing tall in the cold darkness of space, exuding an invisible power that was difficult to face, as if a demon had descended.

In an instant, Scar's eyes flashed with intense disgust and hatred, revealing ancient enmity from within and without.

She pressed her right index finger against her right temple, sliding it slightly downward, touching the twisted and distorted right half of her face, burnt and scarred by the heat of destruction, stirring up both new and old hatred in her heart, unstoppable.

Beside her, Ysk's face grew solemn.

It was his first time seeing H'el in person, yet he felt a pervasive threat emanating from him, his blue-skinned pores seemingly prickling with a warning, indicating that the man was very dangerous.

Perhaps he didn't possess the same level of destructive power and indestructible physique as the Doomsday.

But... he had intelligence!

Yak narrowed his dangerous gaze, pulling out his hands from his sleeves. Gripping his robe with his left hand, he tore it apart, revealing his 1.2-meter-tall body clad in a finely crafted, form-fitting combat vest, muscles rippling beneath his azure skin. Though only as tall as a third grader, his constantly flexing fingers displayed a terrifying power akin to controlling stars.

Upon seeing H'el's appearance, Apollo and Athena could not remain indifferent. Athena distanced herself from Apollo and quietly formed a quadrilateral formation with the Guardians of the Universe, enclosing H'el.

Apollo, clad in shining golden armor, his gaze disdainful, stepped towards H'el in the void.

"Let me handle this!"

"I spent ninety thousand years forging my bones, another nine hundred thousand years nurturing them with divine power, and nine million years to produce divine blood from my marrow. Then, after nine billion years, I created the flawless Sun God's body, all for this moment—to crush the Kryptonians!"

Apollo shone brightly with each step, his golden footsteps leaving marks in the void behind him. He walked towards H'el as if he were a massive war machine, emanating a strong warlike aura, heating up intensely and distorting the nearby high-energy magnetic field particles.

The golden armor he was wearing began to fall off his body piece by piece, revealing dark skin underneath. His once sunny and handsome, muscular physique now seemed to be coated in a layer of dark armor, absorbing all radiance. Only his eyes shone brightly like two suns, while his hair billowed like flames.

His wide grin exuded an eerie charm, devoid of sunlight.

H'el glanced at Apollo, who had shed his armor, revealing his immense divine power, as he approached.

For beings like gods, any external form of manifestation was just an illusion; appearance was inconsequential. Only the core power mattered.

A surge of immense divine power emanated from Apollo like tumultuous waves.

For the first time, H'el felt a suffocating sensation in his cells, as if he had been holding his breath for a long time.

But no sense of vulnerability, no tingling, no danger.

Perhaps Apollo was strong!

But unfortunately, he was stronger!

"Is that so? I won't give you any advantages either."

H'el smirked, raising his right hand. The nanos in his black battle suit surged like insects, flowing out from his index finger and disappearing into space.

This war was to test how much power he had and where he stood in this universe.

For now, he temporarily abandoned the assistance of his battle suit and relied solely on his own power to test.

"Strike at my chest and see!"

H'el revealed his perfect muscular contours, his broad and robust chest lifted, arms spread wide as if welcoming Apollo's approach. His arrogant posture, smirking expression, and disdainful gaze dominated the cosmos.

Apollo, equally showing a cracked smile, stood radiant in the void, meeting H'el's gaze.

Two incredibly arrogant beings locked eyes, causing invisible waves of radiation to ripple through space, stirring up chaotic scenes in the microscopic world.

"I'm sorry, but this isn't just between you two."

Yak gave his neck a slight twist, the huge clashing of bones resonating like a pile driver, sending powerful shockwaves rippling through the surrounding magnetic fields.

Without even glancing at Apollo, Yak, standing like a giant in front of the Green Lantern Corps, raised his hand and pressed forward.

"Green Lantern Corps, attack!"

The vastness of space was dark and cold, yet stars twinkled, illuminating their own brightness.

At this moment, in this expanse of space, H'el was the brightest star, exuding confidence like a god, opening his arms to welcome the divine assault.

All eyes were fixed on H'el.

With his arrival, the morale of the New Kryptonian Legion soared, their battle fervor palpable as they eagerly eyed the broad muscles behind their emperor.

It was this figure that had always saved Krypton, never forgetting to return to its original site, saving the seven million Kryptonian survivors, awakening them from their suspended animation, and leading them across two million light-years to Earth, where they established New Krypton.

Their new home.

This battle was about the establishment of New Krypton, the first battle for their new homeland.

No one wanted to be a wanderer in the stars.

"For New Krypton!"

Kalu roared with fury, leading the New Kryptonian Legion, clashed with the Green Lantern Corps, bypassing H'el.

The interstellar war involving tens of millions of people turned incredibly fierce in an instant, with green lights extinguishing everywhere, starships firing beams into the distance, mechanical parts shattering in space, and bodies torn apart, staining the stars with blood.

"I am the destiny of the Kryptonians!"

Apollo raised his fist, traversing the void, radiating residual light, and instantly arrived in front of H'el. With a grin, his bright eyes shone like two suns, transmitting the scorching red sun radiation that hindered Kryptonian cell regeneration.

A punch struck H'el's broad chest, caving it in, shattering bones. H'el flew out of the battlefield like a shooting star, heading deep into the cosmos.

"Send him away. We can't fight here. We'll destroy the sun and Earth."

Yak swiftly followed H'el's trajectory, addressing Scar
