Chapter 341 / Chapter 342

"How I wish that one day someone could truly give me this feeling; simply experiencing the fear that others feel seems a little insufficient."

Su Chen expressed his deep regret regarding this.

Although you can now use this ring to kick and feel the fear it evokes in others, it's not the same as the aura that emanates from within yourself.

Making Su Chen feel fear is an extremely difficult thing, almost impossible...

Just as Su Chen was leisurely grumbling here, a faint light finally flashed across the sky.

As soon as the light flashed, everyone could immediately sense that something had changed across the entire Earth.

Even those New Mutants with less acute senses could feel the hairs on their bodies standing on end.

Something... is coming.

The next moment, Su Chen heard a warning message from the headquarters of the S.W.O.R.D..

"Your Supreme, a jump wormhole has been detected in the Northern Hemisphere. After brief observation, the possibility of it being a mistaken jump has been ruled out. It seems to be the big guy we've been waiting for."

Staff specifically tasked with monitoring the space around Earth quickly located the enormous object that had just jumped in...

Compared to the spaceships built by the other three members, this spaceship appears to be several sizes larger.

From outer space, it doesn't look particularly conspicuous because there's nothing around for comparison. However, when this very precious spaceship appeared outside Earth's atmosphere, those who could see it were somewhat surprised to discover that it was actually not much smaller than the S.W.O.R.D..

"Everyone, prepare for battle! Target the giant spaceship appearing over the Northern Hemisphere. No need to hold back, take it all down!"

At that moment, next to all the preheated weapon sets, Captain Marvel's icy voice suddenly rang out.

"This guy actually dared to come, so give him a proper welcome!"

The captain, who was at the headquarters of the S.W.O.R.D., came directly to the scene, issuing orders while watching the enormous-looking spaceship on the screen.

"Notify all Legion to launch their fiercest attack. Although it may not be very effective, it will at least obstruct his view."

The captain continued to calmly issue orders, but a wry smile appeared on his face when he said that it was ineffective.

During their previous battles with the Prober, or rather, during their pursuit of the Prober, they could clearly see that the weapons currently existing on Earth did not seem to have much effect on the Celestials.

Therefore, it's conceivable that the spaceship that arrived, specifically tasked with delivering verdicts, wouldn't be too bad either.

However, the captain still ordered his S.W.O.R.D. and all the weapon groups in the Utopia Alliance that he could contact to launch an attack!

This is their attitude.

"On one hand, it's to express our attitude; on the other hand, let's consider it as fireworks when the Supreme One makes his appearance."

The captain's bitter smile faded slightly.

Although their attacks may have no effect, their core, their most powerful being, remains on Earth.

That's enough!

Chapter 341

At the same time that the Eradicator appeared on Earth, an unknown storm was also brewing in Universe 1.

"It seems we've reached some kind of consensus."

Within the Guardians's domain, in that black hole, the deep voice continued to emanate, though now it seemed to carry a hint of satisfaction.

"As long as I defeat that Su Chen, you will grant me some freedom and release me. It seems like a pretty good deal, quite worthwhile."

The people inside the black hole seemed quite satisfied with the deal.

"You need to do more than just defeat Su Chen; you need to completely eradicate him from this universe. Something that can threaten the existence of the Legion that maintain cosmic peace—you should understand that we will not tolerate its continued existence."

The pale, Guardians consciousness, still hovering outside the black hole, continues to communicate with the people inside.

"Of course I understand that, otherwise why wouldn't I be trapped here by you?"

The entity inside the black hole seemed to chuckle softly.

"If you can do this, we can promise to allocate a region for you within this universe and allow you to control that region and spread your own dark power. This is the biggest concession we can make."

The Guardians's will continued to emanate fluctuations.

"Although your power is too evil, we see it as a controllable energy, capable of serving as Legion to protect the universe. Of course, that depends on your own actions."

Faced with the conditions offered by the Guardians, the being within the black hole seemed to fall into some kind of deep thought.

"I agree to the deal, but I also have one request."

After a moment, the entity within the black hole suddenly spoke.

"Since you've agreed to allocate a region to me, I think I should also have some right to choose. I want that part of the Earth and the surrounding area as my territory."

As he spoke, the presence in the darkness seemed to carry a faint hint of hatred.

His rise began on Earth, but his downfall also occurred on Earth.

For him, trapped in this dark and hopeless black hole, Earth was both a nightmare he could never escape and a source of longing.

The Guardians paused for a moment, as if discussing the matter.

"The entire Earth and the surrounding area of Solar System can be transformed into the territory of your Black Legion. However, once we discover that your Legion's reach extends beyond this area, we will take the exact same measures and seal you back here!"

At this point, the Guardians's voice suddenly turned stern.

What they did was merely using one enemy to devour another, and they took a certain risk in doing so. Therefore, even if such a domain truly appeared in this universe, they must keep a close watch on it to prevent it from expanding.

"Then it's settled."

The being in the darkness chuckled.

"Then what are you waiting for? Why haven't you released me yet?"

Seeing these pale consciousnesses still hovering outside the black hole, the beings inside seemed somewhat dissatisfied.

"There shouldn't be any problems, right?"

"Even if we release this guy now, we've already modified his ring, so he probably won't be able to cause much trouble."

"We'll have to tightly seal off this area. Even with restrictions on the ring, the energy of this Black Lantern is still terrifying."

After the Guardians exchanged their consciousnesses for a while, their pale consciousnesses began to slowly rotate around the edge of the black hole.

Now that the matter has been discussed and agreed upon, the mad dog has given its consent.

Now it's time to let this mad dog go out and bite people!

As the pale gas slowly swirled around the edge of the black hole, a crisp sound, like shattering glass, suddenly rang out from within the black hole.

Click!

Similarly, there was the barely perceptible sound of the iron lock cracking.

The black hole, which should not have existed as a physical entity, suddenly began to collapse piece by piece. This was not the collapse of the black hole itself, but rather the gradual cracking and shattering of the space it occupied.

This black hole was designed from the outset to be impossible to completely solve.

Closing this black hole is virtually impossible. The only way is to completely destroy it by lowering its intelligence, and only those who create black holes can achieve this, just like the current Guardians.

As the black hole gradually disintegrated, the entity inside finally revealed its true form.

The deep voice conveyed immense pressure, but the body that appeared at that moment, accompanied by that immense pressure, presented a stark contrast.

A skeleton-like body was crouching in the very center of this black hole, and as the black hole disintegrated, the body was finally able to stretch out.

Sensing that the constraints imposed by the black hole had vanished, the skull head simultaneously raised its own head.

Above his head was a huge, eerie black and white symbol, which looked somewhat similar to the symbols of the other Legion, but was also quite different.

The symbols of the other Legion evoked feelings similar to the power of their Spectrum, while this symbol evoked only an endless chill.

It felt as if one's life could leave one's body at any moment.

"The feeling of freedom... it feels so good."

This gaunt, skeletal figure slowly stretched his body, his inactive frame emitting a hoarse grinding sound.

He remained in that squatting position, firmly embedded in this black hole, never having any chance to move, and who knows how much time had passed like this.

If it were an ordinary person, they would have become a living fossil long ago. Even if they didn't become a fossil, they would have gone insane from being unable to move due to their posture.

This was the most horrific form of imprisonment, subjecting the prisoners to both physical and psychological oppression.

However, the guy who had just been released acted as if nothing had happened, stretching his body, which had long since lost its vitality.

Surrounding him were a group of Guardians with serious expressions, whose consciousness had just returned to their bodies.

This guy raised his head and gave the group of stern-faced Guardians a sinister smile.

Chapter 342

"Is this... is this the legendary feeling of freedom? It's been so long since I've experienced this magical feeling."

Despite the man's slightly sinister smile, the Guardians remained silent, their faces tense.

However, this guy didn't care. He just continued to move his body and then spoke with a hint of nostalgia.

"It's a pity that my former Legion has been completely wiped out, otherwise they would definitely be a formidable fighting force. However, since you have given me a domain this time, I will make all the intelligent life within it part of my Legion. You shouldn't have any objections, right?"

Then this guy spoke up to the high and mighty Guardians, making his request.

"As long as you don't step out of your territory and stay firmly within that area, no one will care what you do."

One of the Guardians, his face tense and extremely serious, spoke.

This essentially implies a gradual acceptance that a region in the universe can be designated as a death zone.

And this area, as mentioned earlier, is the area where Earth is located.

However, this also plays right into the hands of the Guardians.

As a relatively remote area, handing it over to this Nekron doesn't seem to be a loss.

Moreover, accidents happen frequently in this remote star system, and almost all of them originate from that damned star system. If this guy were to completely transform this troublesome place into a dead and silent place, things would probably be much better.

The rational, noble, and calm Guardians simply and naturally turned the Earth into a part of death.

After all, this is for the safety of the entire universe!

Immediately following was another black and white ring, emitting a dark, eerie light, which slowly floated in front of the Nekron.

"This is your ring. We've placed restrictions on it to ensure we have complete control over you. As for the rest, you're free to do as you please..."

Perhaps we weren't hiding anything; on the contrary, they needed to use this to clearly demonstrate their restriction on the Nekron.

"Hahaha!!!"

The Nekron, upon receiving the ring, seemed unconcerned about any restrictions imposed upon it, and suddenly let out a wild laugh.

With contact with its former owner, this ring also began to emit its own light, and this light gradually merged into the Nekron's body.

As these lights seemed to merge, the Nekron's somewhat thin body became less dazzling and began to appear slightly rounder.

The Nekron, having regained the nourishment of his own power, let out a long roar, his entire body instantly soaring into the sky, becoming a black streak of light, and leaving the domain of the Guardians of the Universe!

"Hopefully, what we did wasn't wrong..."

"That's right, we did that to eliminate a larger threat, and besides, we already have protective measures in place."

As the Nekron departed, some of the Guardians raised their heads, a hint of hesitation flashing in their eyes. But as if to convince themselves completely, they began to comfort themselves.

After bursting out of this area, the black light suddenly discovered a flashing green light to its right.

"Damn the Green Lantern Corps..."

The Nekron cursed under his breath.

To his right was not a single member of the Green Lantern Corps; all of them were now obediently staying on their own planets, and the light was emanating from that enormous planet.

"Just you wait, once I've completely conquered a star system, the first thing I'll do is wipe the Green Lantern Corps out of this universe!!"

The Nekron's tone was filled with disgust and hatred towards the Green Lantern Corps, which was considered a jack-of-all-trades.

The dark energy of death can ruthlessly erode any kind of emotional energy, turning them into Carnage machines that only know how to endlessly acquire life.

The Nekron could even proudly proclaim his black death power, which transcends any Emotional Spectrum.
