Chapter 134 Living Planet
Kara's clone once said that she remembered her classmates at the Kryptonian school, the owner of the cake shop near her house, and the three-legged, four-winged dragon at the zoo.
The blonde clone wanted to use these beautiful memories to prove that she wasn't a clone, but a natural Kryptonian.
In Kara's eyes, such behavior was no longer laughable, but pathetic.
She could also remember her deskmate with whom she used to play and joke around when she was in school in her hometown of Argo, and every birthday she had before she turned fourteen.
And then there's Zo El, who vividly described to his daughter Kara the evolutionary history of the three-legged, four-winged dragon that was taller than all the buildings in Argo City on the zoo's cable car.
Everything was so perfect until the hidden dangers in Krypton's core began to erupt.
Despite Jor-El's countless warnings, the High Council, turning a deaf ear, could not stop it from happening. Violent geological movements began to sweep across Krypton, and a massive earthquake struck Argo, tearing the peaceful city into pieces from the bottom up.
The earth trembled, tall buildings collapsed, and people scrambled to escape for their lives.
Kara was one of the few lucky ones in the school who witnessed firsthand how her classmates were buried under solid silica rubble.
As she escaped the school and made her way home through layers of ruins, she saw the solar panels in the cake shop she frequented every birthday explode under the pressure, burning the entire shop and everyone inside to ashes.
As for that three-legged, four-winged dragon?
This tall and fascinating creature was trapped in a fissure in the earth torn open by the earthquake and could not move. Before it slowly died from the pressure of the underground rock and soil, Kara had heard the poor creature's mournful cries echo throughout the city more than once.
These are some of the memories that Kara selectively omitted when choosing which clone to implant.
Before Jor-El repaired Krypton's core, this was happening all over Krypton.
This is why Kara disregarded her parents' objections and made the most important decision of her life—joining the "Sword of Raoh." Launching survival pods to various potentially habitable planets illuminated by the yellow sun was not a very safe option, but Krypton did not have many choices at the time.
Fortunately, after twenty years of development, everything is now a success for Kara.
The Kryptonian Empire rises from the ashes, and the lost Kal-El is found. The only bad thing is that Kara herself might die!
Kara, whose mind was already racing, heard another deafening explosion.
Kara felt her power and senses returning to her body, and she saw that the last line of defense manifested by the Green Lanterns in the distance had been breached.
Karl El did it; he carved out a path to survival for Karl with his own body.
Sensing that Karl El's bio-field strength was rapidly increasing, his cousin, after escaping danger, immediately began to dramatically repeat his own unintentional words from before his near-death experience:
"I don't want to die like this!"
"you!"
Kara, almost "resurrected," was quite annoyed. Finally exposed to the sunlight, she had the strength to lift her head and glare at her cousin. But when she saw his appearance, she couldn't help but gasp:
"You're injured!"
The blood seeping from Joey's forehead had already covered his face. The uniform and cloak on his right shoulder, which he had used to strike the energy barrier, were damaged, revealing his blood-soaked shoulder and most of his chest.
In an environment isolated from sunlight and filled with kryptonite radiation, even the highly adaptable Karl El was no longer a perfect body of steel.
But now everything is different. They have escaped the Green Lantern's encirclement and have been exposed to sunlight again. Both of their injuries are healing rapidly.
Kara could feel her metal armor reactivating under the influence of the yellow sunlight and bio-field, clearing away her kryptonite radiation.
Just a few more minutes, and she could fight alongside Kal-El, picking off the Green Lantern Corps piecemeal. Just then, the armor's miniature AI began to sound an alarm.
Kara quickly spoke up to remind him:
"Be careful!"
Although she was still in a weakened state and did not realize the source of the danger, the AI of the battle armor almost never made a mistake.
"I see!"
Even without Kara's reminder, Joey's vision wasn't limited by his serious injuries. When he saw the dazzling green light beside him, as bright as the sun, he immediately realized what was happening:
"I knew it! That's why these Green Lanterns arrived so quickly, and why the defense in this area was so weak!"
Joey now only felt the universe's malice towards him. The blonde Kara had inadvertently led him to a place he shouldn't have been, which was clearly one of the core areas of the Green Lantern Corps.
However, this was only hindsight, because while he and Kara were heading towards the sun, they accidentally passed by a planet that was closest to the sun.
At first glance, the planet appeared as barren and silent as any other planet in the galaxy, until Joey got close enough to him.
They were so close that there was simply no time to evade the planet's attack.
Yes, for Joey, the current situation is like "a dead planet suddenly starting to attack me."
The massive planet began to glow with a vibrant green light, and a huge, translucent emerald ring began to materialize around its perimeter, coalescing into the shape of a green light ring.
This is Planet Mogo, a living planet with consciousness and awareness, also known as "the greatest Green Lantern," without exception.
And now, the lamp ring he possesses is ready to be used.
The power of a green light ring depends on the user's willpower and imagination. One important reason why Joey was able to escape from the encirclement of tens of thousands of supreme green lights was that their thoughts were not unified.
Ten thousand individuals will have ten thousand thoughts, which gives Joey the confidence to break through from the weak points.
It now appears that the Green Lanterns' initial plan was clearly to achieve their operational objectives with minimal cost.
They deliberately lured Joey and his companion in this direction, causing them to unknowingly run headfirst into Mogo, who possessed the most immense Green Lantern energy.
A living planet that has survived for billions of years projected his willpower across the entire planet, sealing off all escape routes for the two of them.
This time, Joey really couldn't hold back anymore and couldn't help but curse out loud:
"I***!"
At this moment, he even missed the awful days he had spent with those bugs from the Vought Corporation.
If you compare your experience to an adventure game, then after leaving the starting village of Water, shouldn't the difficulty increase in an orderly manner, either arithmetically or geometrically?
The difficulties I'm facing now are increasing exponentially!
Knowing he couldn't dodge in time, Joey had no choice but to turn his back and shield Kara, who was far from recovered, with his own body.
"don't want!"
Having taken the brunt of the planet Mogo's energy attack, Joey only had time to hear Kara, who was struggling in his arms, shout out in protest before losing consciousness amidst the din.
