Chapter 74 - Chapter 74 System's New Task

After learning about Zod, Superman and Supergirl also basically let down their guard.

And Zod, for the first time, spoke to them about some of Krypton's past from his original memories, as well as matters related to their parents from another world.

Unconsciously, he completely immersed himself in the emotions of his original body, and his tone also showed a strong sense of reminiscence.

Gradually, Superman and Supergirl even detected a hint of an elder's affection for a junior in Zod's eyes.

Although they felt a moment of discomfort, they soon accepted it.

From another perspective, Zod could indeed be considered their elder to some extent.

Finally, the conversation returned to New Krypton, and Zod even used his magic to conjure the current appearance of New Krypton.

Kara looked at the various scenes of New Krypton conjured by Zod and couldn't help but say:

"The tree of life that can bestow spiritual power upon people, and the sunflower that can emit sunlight. If I have the chance, I really want to visit New Krypton in person."

After all, she had lived on the former Krypton for a period of time. Looking at the somewhat familiar architectural styles in the images, she suddenly felt a sense of daze.

She couldn't help but express her thoughts.

Although Clark didn't speak, a hint of longing also appeared in his eyes.

However, what he yearned for was not New Krypton, but the consciousness projection of Jor-El on Earth that Zod mentioned.

From Zod's words, he knew that Jor-El from another world was a good father and a good guide.

Although he no longer needed guidance, he felt a stirring in his heart, wanting to communicate with the "father" from another world.

"If you wish, this is not difficult to achieve, because I have already obtained a method to travel between two universes!"

Zod's saying this was naturally not just to invite them to New Krypton as guests, but because his collecting habit had acted up!

If possible, he really wanted to gather all the Supermen from all universes one day; such a scene was truly exciting to imagine.

However, Supergirl was surprised to hear this.

Zod had clearly said before that bringing Flash to this world was to find a way to return to his own universe. Could it be that he found it in such a short time?

So she also asked curiously: "What method is that? Do you need our help?"

Although there was a previous experience of helping Flash return to his world, that was only possible due to Flash's abilities.

Before Zod could answer, Martian Manhunter flew over to them with Mon-El.

It seemed that the negotiations between the Daxamites and the Earth politicians had been completed, but it was unknown what price was paid.

Zod could basically guess what they came for; it was nothing more than the Daxam super mothership he had taken.

Unfortunately, things that fell into his hands never had a reason to be returned.

Sure enough, the first thing Martian Manhunter said when he flew in front of him was: "Mr. Zod, there's something we'd like to discuss with you, if that's alright?"

In response, Zod directly and unceremoniously said: "If it's about the Daxam mothership, then there's no need to say more. No one can take away my spoils of war."

Hearing this, Mon-El immediately became anxious. As the Daxam prince, he knew all too well the importance of this super mothership to the Daxamites.

If they truly lost the mothership, his promise to lead the Daxamites to find a suitable new home would become extremely difficult.

"General Zod, the mothership concerns the future of nearly ten million Daxam survivors. I beg you to return it to us!"

"I have already agreed to immediately take all my kin and leave Earth, never to invade again."

Martian Manhunter also spoke up in due course:

"Mr. Zod, Daxam suffered the same fate as Krypton. Considering that you are both survivors, could you please return their mothership to them so they can leave Earth and find a new home?"

"Uncle Zod, please return the mothership to Mon. After all, the Daxamites share similar bloodlines with us!"

Supergirl, seeing her boyfriend's appearance, also pleaded with Zod, even calling him "Uncle Zod" to draw closer.

Superman wanted to say something, but he opened his mouth and didn't speak.

[Ding! Detecting that the host is about to make a decision that will affect the fate of millions, a selectable mission has been triggered!

[One, return the mothership. The host will receive a roulette draw +1, plus the animosity of some Daxamites; Two, sternly refuse, and without the host personally intervening, still use facts to tell everyone that with strength, one can do whatever one wants. Upon completion, the host will receive a roulette draw +2, and the animosity of all Daxamites!]

Upon seeing the system prompt, Zod was surprised but also showed a hint of joy.

After seeing the two options, Zod chose the second one without any hesitation.

Moreover, even if there had been no system prompt, he had no intention of returning it unless they had enough strength to force him to hand it over.

As for the so-called animosity of the Daxamites, he didn't care about it at all.

Even if all nearly ten million surviving Daxamites absorbed solar radiation and became alternative Supermen, Zod still had the absolute power to tell them, "I don't eat beef."

The only thing that surprised him was that the system this time didn't allow him to act personally.

"It's a good thing the power of the dimensional wall has awakened, otherwise I might really have only been able to choose the first option!"

Having made his decision, Zod merely said to Mon-El in a cold tone:

"Whether you leave Earth or not is none of my business. I care even less about your future."

In Zod's eyes, the Daxamites who invaded Earth were interstellar bandits, and he himself was not a good person. This was a case of black-on-black.

Seeing Zod's attitude, Mon-El did not back down this time.

Originally, he harbored fear towards Zod, but he thought of himself as the backbone of the remaining Daxamites, so he forcibly suppressed that fear in his heart.

At this moment, he understood that he could not give in, so he argued: "But the mothership belongs to Daxam, and we have already reached a reconciliation with the political leaders of various Earth nations."

"Heh! That's between you and the people of Earth. What does it have to do with me? Now it's my spoils of war."

Hearing this, a look of unwillingness flashed across Mon-El's face, but then he heard Zod add: "However, it's not impossible for you to get the mothership back. I can give you a chance."

Upon hearing this, Mon-El's face showed a hint of excitement, and he eagerly asked: "What chance?"

Not only him, but everyone else also cast inquiring glances at Zod.
