ALL NOVEL 58. Kara’s Wrath.
It was a brutal massacre.
From the very beginning of the battle, this war, where the combat power of both sides was entirely unmatched, fell into a one-sided situation.
Facing General Zod's use of Kryptonian technology, the Earth's military's cannons and grenades were simply like primitive people's wooden sticks. They couldn't even harm the enemy; under the yellow sun's enhancement, these bullets couldn't even catch up to the Kryptonians' speed.
Most Kryptonians didn't even bother to dodge because these bullets and artillery were nothing more than tickles to them.
Though the physical attributes of Kryptonians varied—some absorbed the sun's energy faster than others, while some did so more slowly—most Kryptonians couldn't reach General Zod's level of enhancement. But even so, it was enough to deal with humans because Earth's weapons couldn't break through their defenses.
The battlefield was filled with piercing sounds, a sharp whistling noise followed by thunderous explosions. These visually impressive displays had strong visual effects, but the soldiers knew they hadn't killed a single enemy so far.
Krypton's counterattack was even fiercer. Spaceships hovered high above, their force fields descending slowly. Several long cannons emerged, firing laser weapons that didn't even require aiming as they could lock onto any enemy intelligently.
With just one shot, most soldiers didn't even have time to react. Immediately, countless rocks and debris flew into the sky, mixed with various body parts and tank fragments. In the end, only a deep trench several meters long remained on the ground.
Such powerful weapons silenced the human army. Though they continued their futile resistance, everyone knew one thing: the battle's outcome had been decided from the start.
Amidst the countless explosions and bursts of fire, General Zod stepped out from a platform extended from the spaceship. He watched the massacre with a calm expression, as if the deaths of these people didn't stir his emotions at all.
In fact, he was somewhat tired because killing these defenseless humans brought him no satisfaction. Instead, it made him feel like he was wasting his time.
"Go, make it quick," General Zod commanded. His voice was somewhat hoarse, but it carried an undeniable menace.
"Yes," responded a woman with short black hair beside him. She immediately leaped from the spaceship and joined the chaotic battlefield.
This woman was Faora, General Zod's lieutenant. She possessed extremely strong combat skills and was genetically engineered for war. She was General Zod's most trusted person and the second strongest among the Kryptonians present, just slightly slower than General Zod in absorbing the yellow sun's radiation.
When she joined the battle, the human army's already struggling defense line was instantly breached.
Watching Faora, who was like a war goddess continuously reaping human lives, General Zod nodded slightly in approval. He then looked up, shifting his gaze from the battlefield to the sky above.
There, a girl in a red and blue suit with a flowing red cape was hovering, glaring at him with intense anger. Even General Zod was somewhat surprised by the sheer hatred in her eyes.
"Kara Zor-El, we've been waiting for you," General Zod said, his usually icy face showing a hint of change. Unlike Kara's eyes filled with killing intent, his eyes revealed a trace of joy.
Seeing Kara ignoring him, General Zod didn't mind. He continued speaking to himself.
"This attack was just a test on Earth. The World Engine still needs adjustments. I planned to launch the final battle tomorrow, to start transforming Earth. Only by destroying this world can our world be reborn."
Kara clenched her teeth. Her voice trembled as she slowly spoke her first words.
"My brother...where is he?"
Hearing this question, General Zod finally understood the source of her hatred.
"It seems you already know, so I won't hide it. Your uncle, Jor-El, hid a key that could bring Krypton back to life within a child. All Kryptonian genetic data and material were encoded into this child's DNA and sent to Earth in an escape pod."
"My...brother...where is he?"
After hearing from Alex about her brother, Kara held a glimmer of hope despite her hatred for General Zod. She didn't want to believe her brother was truly dead. But seeing General Zod's expression now, Kara's heart sank to the bottom.
"We intercepted his pod, but he wasn't who we were looking for. You were the one, Kara Zor-El. I'm sorry, but that child didn't survive."
Before General Zod could finish, he suddenly saw Kara's eyes emitting a faint red glow. Countless powerful energies rapidly gathered in her eyes, the destructive energy causing even General Zod to be wary.
"Ahhhhhh!!!!"
A piercing scream echoed across the battlefield.
Resentment, hatred, unwillingness—all these negative emotions reached their peak. The next moment, they all erupted with the crimson laser beam. The powerful force blasted General Zod away. Following the laser beam's trajectory, General Zod was propelled at an incredible speed from the spaceship straight to the ground.
The violent energy reaction instantly drew everyone's attention on the battlefield.
General Zod lay in a massive crater, his arm armor partially falling off with residual red energy, surrounded by the marks left by the laser blast.
"General!"
Seeing this, Faora immediately stopped attacking the defenseless humans and turned to rescue him. She had already identified their target, Kara, the carrier of the Codex.
Though Faora didn't think this young girl could harm General Zod, as his lieutenant, seeing her general attacked by an enemy was something she couldn't forgive.With this thought, she stomped on the ground, launching herself into the air.
But just as she moved, three streaks of lightning directly intercepted her.
