Chapter 1473 The White Light of Life and the Equation of Life
"My dear, you want to turn us into little blue men? This punishment is too cruel." Gagardner shouted in horror.
Gunther, the little blue man next to him, twitched his face a few times and asked: "Why do you do this? If you just want to take revenge on our Guardian family, there is no need to take action against them, and there is no need to harm the Green Lantern Corps.
There is no need to harm innocent creatures in the universe. This is just a grudge between you and us.
We destroyed your body, exiled you to the edge of the universe, and made you suffer in nothingness for three billion years.
You had a reason to torture us, but no one else bothered you."
Carona turned to him and sighed: "Gunther, you were my best friend. I thought you should know me very well and not have such doubts.
Besides, this isn't the first time I've done this.
Three billion years ago, I modified the program of the machine hunters and made them go crazy collectively, killing not even a single cockroach in sector 666.
Could it be that I hate the people in sector 666?
I don't even know them, so why would I care about their lives?
Everything I do is to take revenge on you.
You, these emotionless monsters, will suffer from physical torture?
Even if I kill you, you won't even frown.
The best way to retaliate against you is to crush your ideas and destroy all the order and achievements you have established."
"You use machine hunters to maintain the peace of the planet, and I will modify their programs and let them destroy the planet's civilization.
I wanted to prove your stupidity, and I succeeded.
With just one small change, the new kingdom established by the Guardians collapsed.
Now, 3 billion years later, I have repeated the Sector 666 incident. I only need to slightly modify the program of the lantern ring. The glory and prestige of the green lantern that you have built up over 3 billion years will collapse and be destroyed in an instant.
The Guardian God of the Universe degenerated into the Demon of the Universe.
The admired Green Lantern became a killer who was feared and hated by countless civilizations.
Hahaha, it’s so refreshing!”
"Just to avenge a few guardians, you massacred so many people?! Is the entire universe just a chessboard for you little blue people to fight among themselves, and countless civilizations are just chess pieces that cannot be put on the table?" Kyle's eyes were red and angry. The body only trembles.
Kalona shrugged, "I don't hate you, nor do I like you. The civilization of the universe doesn't mean much to me. Everything I do only serves one goal - revenge on the Guardians."
The countless civilizations in the material universe are not even chess pieces in his mind.
He would at least pay attention to the pieces on the chessboard.
He had no feeling at all about the destroyed cosmic civilization.
Looking at the four earthlings with ferocious and twisted expressions, Kalona sneered: "Do you know why I can easily destroy everything built by the guardian every time?
I caught their vitals.
I can modify the control program of the machine hunters only because they have their own set of control programs to ensure that the guardians have absolute control over them.
I can control all Green Lanterns because there is a control program in your lantern rings to ensure that you cannot disobey or get rid of the Guardians.
I just took away control with my wisdom higher than theirs.
So, if you want to hate, then hate the Guardian."
"You're talking nonsense. I built the central energy battery and I didn't leave any backdoors." Kyle Rayner said excitedly.
"Yes, you built it, but who has been managing it all these years?" Carona waved his hand gently, the chains rattled, and Kyle Rayner was put down directly.
When he was stunned and confused, a green light ring floated in front of him.
"Attack me with it." Carona said.
Kyle became even more confused, but without any hesitation in his movements, he picked up the light ring and launched his strongest attack on Carona.
"Beep beep beep, alarm, the target is a member of the Guardian clan, and attacks that can kill the Guardians cannot be output."
The light ring rejected him and flashed green light, trying to break free from his finger.
"What's going on?" Kyle was confused, and Hal and others were shocked.
"Hahaha!" Carona laughed and waved his hand, and took back the green light ring. "Clatter" the chain fell, and the stunned Kyle was hoisted into the air again.
"Did you see that? Don't say I am invincible. You have never been a fatal threat to me."
"Gunther, I want an explanation." Guy Gardner said excitedly.
Ganser's lips twitched a few times and he sighed softly: "During the Zero Hour Crisis, Hal killed all the Guardians except me. Alas, we are just preventing incidents that harm the Guardians from happening again."
"Carona is not a guardian." John said.
"Hey, you're not so naive as to think that the standard for judging a Guardian is 'Elder of the Green Lantern Corps', right?" Caronna said with a smile.
The faces of the four lanterns all showed some degree of loss and depression.
"I am different from those guardians who claim to protect the universe but have selfish motives."
Kalona continued to wrap the bandage on Kyle and said: "You passed my assessment and proved with facts that you are better than my rotten compatriots.
Now, I want to hand over the power and authority that belongs to the Guardian to you.
When you complete your evolution, you will be the new guardian and the new manager of the universe."
"You-" The four lanterns looked at him in disbelief, too shocked to speak.
"Don't be surprised," Calona explained: "I've always thought it was silly to use blood and race as criteria for identity.
Genes can be tweaked and even significantly modified.
The gap caused by different ideological realms and levels of wisdom cannot be bridged at all.
Wear the evolutionary bandage I specially customized for you, and you will soon become a "guardian" with blue skin, a big head, and a small body.
Your physical potential is all converted into spiritual power, and your appearance and abilities are no different from ours."
"But I don't want to be the little blue man. You are so small and the job is even smaller. My girlfriend will dislike me." Guy Gardner shouted.
Hal's face twitched a few times and asked: "What are your standards? Why did you choose us?"
Carona said: "You have a deep connection with the power of emotions, and this is the qualification that a guardian should have.
My compatriots cut off their emotions billions of years ago, become insensitive, and have no emotion or feeling.
You may not believe it, but when the robot hunter slaughtered sector 666, I hid in the corner and shed painful tears.
It was the first time I saw so many lives lost tragically because of me, and I even began to regret it.
But the compatriots on whom I expected revenge were all expressionless and showed no emotion at all.
Isn't that ironic?
They have lost contact with life and have no emotions, but they insist on being the guardians of emotional power, shouting to protect the life of the universe."
"Did you cry this time?" Hal sarcastically asked.
Kalona shook his head, "My emotions are still as rich as yours, but these past few days I have been busy monitoring you, dealing with the Justice League of Earth, and guarding against Witch Harley's surprise attack. I have no time or chance to be sad.
Maybe after I achieve great success, I will observe a few minutes of silence for the lives that have died."
"You are a madman and a beast." Gagardner cursed.
Hal was still very calm, glanced at the silent fat head, and asked: "What does it mean to be a great success? After we complete the transformation, you will retire, take away your compatriots, and hand over the Green Lantern Corps." Give us?"
"You will become my subordinates, and I will lead you to rebuild the new order of the universe and create a normal world full of emotions and consistent with the laws of life." Carona gradually became excited.
"This guy is crazy!" Gagardner turned his head and said to his companions: "Compared with him, I would rather face an emotionless guardian."
Hal said coldly: "Carona, tell me your true plan. Now that you have an absolute advantage, there is no need to hide it.
Even if the four of us become guardians and fully obey your orders, we still won't be able to face the wrath from the entire universe, let alone build a new order in the universe."
"Well, you guessed it right, I do have a follow-up plan. All uncontrollable factors are due to lack of strength. As long as you are strong, your will will be the order of the world." Carona said.
Several people stared at him to see what he would say next.
But Carona kept her mouth shut and concentrated on wrapping bandages on the four people, circle after circle, layer after layer.
"What are you afraid of? At this time, you don't even have the courage to reveal your thoughts?" Hal said sarcastically.
"You don't need to provoke me. Before the overall situation is decided, I won't act like a fool and proudly reveal all my secrets." Carona said.
Hal glanced at Fat Tou, who was silent, expressionless, and looking at him with squinted eyes.
"Gunther, what is he doing?" he shouted.
——If Harley is really here, she must want to know Carona's plan. Only by knowing each other and knowing yourself can you win every battle. If you don't know anything, directly arrange for the heroes of the main alliance to attack the River of Time, there will definitely be a lot of casualties. This
Not Harley's style.
Although Fatty never responded to him, Hal still refused to give up a little bit of hope.
"It's very possible that he wants to seize the source of your emotions." Ganse said slowly.
Carona glanced at him, said nothing, and continued what he was doing.
"Speak clearly," Hal said.
"During Zero Hour Crisis, you stole all the green light energy and planned to steal the guardians' psychic powers. Before you took action, the other guardians quietly transferred most of their psychic powers to me because I could pretend to be dead.
" Ganser said.
Hal was stunned and said thoughtfully: "Carona also wants to rob some of our spiritual powers?"
Ganser said: "We Martus people have evolved to the limit in terms of spiritual power. Not only can we transfer spiritual power without loss, but our emotions can also be superimposed on multiple people or given to each other.
For example, two people are happy about something at the same time, and one of them gives his joy to the other. He loses his joy and calms down, and the other person gains double the joy.
This extremely convenient and efficient emotional transmission has brought a lot of trouble and confusion to the Martus people who advocate reason and wisdom. Therefore, the Supreme Science Council formulated a plan to cut off emotions, maintain sanity, and not be affected by chaos."
Having said this, he turned his head hard and looked at the several lamp beast hosts on the other side who were standing motionless like puppets, "They have lost their emotions and cannot provide emotional power to Kalona.
Kalona said before that he collected the lamp beasts not to unite the lamp beasts into one body, nor to unite the seven lamps that host the lamp beasts into one.
Strength that does not belong to him has no attraction to him.
He wants to evolve one step further, and he wants to truly control the power of white light.
It’s not about borrowing power, it’s about cultivating his own white light based on the principle of seven lamps uniting into one and the power of seven emotions merging into white light.”
"Bah bang bang!"
Carona lightly slapped his hand and praised: "Gunther, you may be the wisest man among the Martus people after me.
You should never have left the ‘Martus Central Academy of Sciences’ in the first place and gone to the capital city to become an inexplicable police chief.
By staying in the lab and continuing to serve as my deputy, we can create unimaginable achievements."
"You know the reason why I left the laboratory best." Ganser looked at his old friend from 3 billion years ago with some resentment in his tone, "I don't want to participate in your taboo experiment! Facts have proved that we are right, you
The best years have come to an end."
"I didn't expect you to be a scientist, Gunther." Guy Gardner said in surprise.
Ganser said with a complex expression: "Every Martus is a scientist and likes to pursue the truth and explore the unknown.
We advocate wisdom and science.
Therefore, the highest authority is the ‘Supreme Science Council’ composed of a group of top scientists.”
"Is now the time to talk about this?" John was anxious and helpless. "Carona wants to use us to practice evil magic, extract emotions from our souls, and condense his own white light."
"What's the rush? He has to transform us into little blue men first before he can extract our emotions." Guy Gardner said disapprovingly, but stared at Carona, "You can't transform me, my body is no longer pure.
.
Really, I'm not going to lie to you.
During the darkest night, my brother was eaten by the black lamp living corpse. His lower body withered and rotted, and he almost lost his life.
Later, Harley found Asa, a female devil wearing a sexy nurse uniform. It must be said that although Asa is a devil, her figure is very hot.
Even though I knew she was not easy to mess with, I still couldn't help but indulge in lust, unable to extricate myself, and summoned her to play poker every now and then."
"What do you want to say?" Carona frowned.
"The reason why I can regain my glory is because Asa helped me replace the magic root! She used the devil cells with extremely strong regeneration ability to contaminate my genes, so I can't transform into a little blue man.
No matter how strong your Martus Evolution Bandage is, it is not strong enough to expel the Black Death Emperor’s death power, the ‘Demon King Gene’.” Guy shouted.
"Fake, you have never told me about such a big thing." John said with strange eyes.
Hal and Kyle also looked surprised.
"How can I tell people casually? I don't want to be regarded as a freak, but I don't want to be a eunuch," Gai said helplessly.
Carona looked at him for a moment and said: "It doesn't matter. Even if the experiment fails and your cells and tissues collapse and melt, it won't be a big loss to me."
"Farke, collapse and melt? I have no talent, don't waste bandages on me." Guy Gardner shouted.
Carona turned his attention to the other side, "My main targets are Hal Jordan and Kyle Rayner.
You all have the gift of using the nine emotional energies.
I can obtain nine emotional elements from you at the same time: anger, greed, fear, will, compassion, hope, love, death and life."
Finally, he turned to the Black Lantern, "Even John Stewart is more talented than you. He has proven his ability to use multiple emotional powers at the same time."
"John, what did you do?" Hal asked curiously.
John was silent.
"He exploded Mogo." Kyle briefly told them what happened on Mogo.
"My dear, poor old Mogo died so tragically and unjustly," Gai exclaimed with emotion.
Hal thought thoughtfully, "Carona has been monitoring us, and our actions are all under his nose."
Carona smiled and said: "More than just monitoring, I am also examining your talents and stimulating your emotions. Only the strongest emotions can give birth to emotional elements."
"The emotional element."
Kyle's heart moved, thinking of the emotional elements of love that Harry had received in his early years and later given to his Heavenly Father.
"Is it the emotional element that makes up the equation of life?" he asked.
Carona's pupils shrank, "You know a lot."
After a pause, he said with a relaxed expression: "Now that I've said it all, I'm not afraid to tell you that the life equation is my goal in the next stage.
Only by cultivating white light can we truly obtain the equation.
As long as I get the equation of life, I can reshape the universe as I please.
At that time, I can lead you to rebuild the new order of the universe and create a normal world full of emotions and in line with the laws of life."
