Chapter 95 The Road to Revenge
Martians' fear of fire was artificially implanted into their DNA by external forces.
Martian Manhunter is now quite certain that the mastermind behind all of this is the Guardians of the Universe.
The Guardians of the Universe are known as the DC Blue Men because they typically appear with blue skin and short stature.
It exists on the planet Oa, which is located at the center of the universe.
Their existence may be as long as the universe itself; they are the earliest super-civilization in the universe, and they have been tirelessly dedicated to maintaining peace and tranquility throughout the universe.
The Green Lantern Corps, which currently maintains cosmic peace and saves lives, is one of their masterpieces.
For the Guardians, the Martian race was clearly too dangerous, so this was the only way to restrict them.
This resulted in the Martians being completely defenseless against the plague a thousand years ago, and being wiped out at the speed of light.
"I'm sorry to remind you of this."
Joey felt he could understand Martian Manhunter's feelings at this moment, just as he had tolerated Starfire chasing and biting him like a madman.
First came Spark, and now we have Martian Hunter.
Could it be that I've run into all the unlucky people who have perished or been wiped out?
Even by the standards of the DC Universe, isn't this universe a bit too dark?
"What I need is not an apology, but the same thing as you Kryptonians."
Martian Manhunter then revealed the true, core purpose of his collaboration with the Kryptonians:
"What we need is revenge, and the right to live."
"I told you to stop for a moment..."
.
The other party's few words contained a lot of information.
Could Martian Manhunter have been tricked by Kara, causing her to blindly serve the Kryptonians?
However, Joey thought about the tacit understanding these Martians had shown even before they had telepathy, and realized that it would be difficult to fool them.
In addition, the guardians of Oa have indeed done very few decent things, and there are very few world-ending crises in the entire universe that are unrelated to them.
In the universe, the little blue men are basically in a state where they can be found everywhere, and the number of evil deeds they commit is almost equal to the number of good deeds they promote.
The Martians said that their race was implanted with a fatal flaw of being afraid of fire by the guardians of the universe in ancient times, and Joey thought this was highly plausible.
It's far more plausible than the conspiracy theory that the most powerful nation on Earth is secretly controlled by a group of Martian, disguised reptilians.
However, Joey didn't think he could provide what Martian Manhunter wanted.
The other party's request was less about needing Joey and more about needing Krypton's help.
He wanted to take revenge on the Guardians of the Universe, but he couldn't handle that on his own. He wasn't even sure he could protect Earth now.
Joey felt that the other party had worshipped the wrong Buddha; he was no longer a true Buddha, but rather a clay Bodhisattva struggling to cross the river, barely able to save himself.
"Then you've come to the wrong person. I'm preparing to fight the Kryptonians who are coming in a few days."
Cyborg, no longer caring whether these Martians would discover him, resorted to body language to express his thoughts instead of eye contact. One of the robots on the scene raised his hand and made a neck-touching gesture towards Joey.
If the Martians want to join the Kryptonians' conquest, then they are already enemies to Joey and his group.
Moreover, they are an extremely dangerous group of enemies. Even without telepathy, these Martians' ability to shapeshift and disguise is enough to throw the entire Earth into chaos in a short period of time.
"There's no need to be hostile towards us; you've clearly misunderstood us."
Martian Manhunter clearly sensed Cyborg's hostility, but he was not afraid at all, because he knew that the only one who could truly make the decision was the Kryptonian present.
"As I just said, our agreement remains unchanged. We are loyal to you, not to the incoming Kryptonians."
"As I just said, I'm not friends with the Kryptonians; I'm preparing to fight them."
"Does this Martian hunter not understand Earth language?" Joey thought he had made himself clear enough, and the other party should have known this as well.
"Whatever you want the Kryptonians to help you accomplish, that's not something I can decide."
"Aren't you a Kryptonian too?"
Martian Manhunter shook his head. Of course he knew that Joey was determined to fight against the upcoming Kryptonian army, but what did that have to do with his choice to pledge allegiance to the Kryptonians?
"Helping Earth resist the invading Kryptonian army and maintaining Earth's autonomy is just wishful thinking on your part."
Regardless of the outcome of the war a few days later, it cannot change the obvious fact that the Earth no longer belongs solely to Earthlings.
Regardless of which side wins, the final result will simply be Kryptonians ruling Earth.
"I'm not like those Kryptonians! Remember that Genie who just left?"
Without hesitation, Joey refuted Martian Manhunter's fallacious argument: "All species on her home planet were wiped out by the Kryptonians a few years ago. She's the last of her kind. That won't happen on my Earth!"
The Martian hunter didn't take it seriously; he simply replied with two words: "Karl El."
"Hard to say."
His collaboration with Kara went much deeper than Joey had imagined, and the two exchanged a considerable amount of information.
This includes Joey's true identity: Kal'El, the biological son of Jor'El, the chief ruler of Krypton.
Given Jor-El's current prestigious status in the Kryptonian Empire, it's impossible for his biological son to be abandoned, and Martian Manhunter naturally wouldn't abandon him either.
As for Karl El's unwillingness to leave Earth?
It's just a matter of time.
Perhaps Karl Al grew up living on Earth and loves his Earth family, Earth friends, and Earth culture.
This love was clearly his greatest support and motivation for maintaining Earth from Kryptonian rule.
But how long can this kind of love last?
Twenty years, fifty years, or one hundred years?
Compared to human social concepts, the development and changes in human society are happening faster than we can imagine.
Martian hunters, who have lived in disguise on Earth for decades, know this all too well.
Stop any older person on the street and ask them for their opinions on society as a whole.
90% of people will express dissatisfaction and show nostalgia for the past.
They don't truly miss the past; they're just feeling lost in the unfamiliar present and longing for some of the good old days.
This is just about humans; Kal'El, a Kryptonian, will ultimately be even more lost and confused than them.
By then, Earth may be insignificant to him.
As for whether Earthlings will be completely wiped out like the Lantern's home planet race at that time?
The Martian hunter might sigh, but that's about it.
The universe is inherently cold and indifferent; no one stipulates that every race must have the right to survive and develop.
Conversely, some people can decide which races can survive and which races do not deserve to live.
Martian hunters have experienced this firsthand.
Just like one's own family, friends, and civilization, those civilizations and races that have silently disappeared for various reasons...
Martian manhunters could call it a small price to pay on their path of revenge.
