Begin from the original form of torture and become immortal

Chapter 1316 World Engine
No matter how the plot changes, the core will not change.

The Kryptonians still want to invade the Earth and transform it into their new home.

So they just have to wait.

In the dark depths of outer space, a huge Kryptonian spaceship is quietly suspended, its surface flashing with a cold metallic luster, as if it is a lonely fortress in the universe.

General Zod, the last hope of Krypton, stood in front of the viewing window of the spacecraft, his eyes traversing the boundless sea of ​​stars. Finally, he saw the legendary figure - Superman, the orphan of Krypton and the key to the revival of their race.

Zod's emotions were indescribable. Years of planning and waiting turned into uncontrollable excitement at this moment.

He knew very well that the Central Codex carried by Superman was the cornerstone of rebuilding the Kryptonian civilization. It contained the genetic information of billions of Kryptonians and was the key to restarting the destiny of the entire race.

"Kal-El."

Zod's voice was deep and powerful, "You bear a heavier responsibility than any of us. Krypton, our home, needs your help to be reborn."

Superman, whose real name is Clark Kent, feels mixed emotions as he looks at the general in front of him who is full of firm conviction.

He understood Zod's pain and desire. After all, he was once a member of that distant planet.

A hint of sympathy flashed in Superman's eyes, but more of it was uncertainty about the future and a deep attachment to Mother Earth.

"I'm willing to help, Zod, as long as it doesn't harm the Earth."

Superman's words reveal a gentle yet firm stance.

However, Zod's answer was like a hammer, shattering the last remaining hope in Superman's heart.

"Carl, the Earth will become the cradle of the new Krypton, and humans must make way for the rebirth of Krypton."

These words were like ice piercing his bones, and the expression on Superman's face froze instantly.

He could not accept such a sacrifice. The Earth, a place he regarded as his second home, full of love and warmth, how could he let it turn into deathly silence?
"No, Zedd, I can't allow this to happen."

Superman's voice trembled with anger, and the atmosphere between the two of them instantly became extremely tense.

Conflict inevitably broke out at that moment.

Inside the spacecraft, energy fluctuated violently, light and shadow intertwined, and Superman engaged in a fierce battle with Zod and his Kryptonian warriors.

Relying on his deep affection and protectiveness for the Earth, Superman fought hard, and finally broke through Zod's defenses, escaped from the spaceship, and returned to the Earth he swore to protect with his life.

Zod pursues unwillingly, leading the remaining Kryptonian warriors to follow closely behind, and a battle across the sky is staged again.

Above the earth, the duel between Superman and Zod was shocking. Every collision was accompanied by a thunderous sound, and it seemed as if countless stars were falling in the sky.

Ultimately, Superman used his familiarity with the terrain and the limits of his own abilities to defeat Zod's seemingly invincible Kryptonian armor, exposing Zod to the Earth's atmosphere.

The Earth's atmosphere is a fatal test for Kryptonians.

Zod, the once powerful man, seemed extremely fragile after losing the protection of his armor.

He struggled, trying to adapt to this strange environment, but eventually he succumbed and fell to the ground, gasping for breath.

At this moment, Lieutenant Fuora arrived with a group of Kryptonian soldiers. Fuora quickly organized a rescue operation, and although she was also severely injured by Superman, she still insisted on rescuing Zod back to the spacecraft.

Inside the spacecraft, Zod gradually regained consciousness after emergency treatment.

When he opened his eyes again, there was a strange light in them.

He was surprised to find that the Earth's atmosphere not only did not kill him, but actually enhanced his strength to an unprecedented level.

This kind of strength is far beyond his peak state on Krypton. Even without power armor, he can fly and hide, and is omnipotent.

This discovery made Zod ecstatic. He realized that the Earth was not only the cradle of Krypton's rebirth, but also the hotbed of Kryptonian evolution.

He immediately ordered Flora to prepare to launch the "World Engine", a pinnacle of planetary transformation technology that could transform any planet into an environment suitable for Kryptonians to survive.

The "World Engine" is a gigantic device that looks like a steel behemoth. Its huge body is supported by a tripod and it hangs in the sky above the city, making it a daunting sight.

Above the metropolis, the first "World Engine" slowly descended. Below it was a bustling city. People looked up in horror, not knowing what to do.

On the other side of the Earth, another "World Engine" flew along the Earth's orbit and finally landed on a remote island in the Indian Ocean, ready to carry out the same mission.

"World Engines" are the crystallization of Kryptonians' wisdom. They are not just simple machines, but also the epitome of planetary transformation technology.

The Kryptonians have established many outposts across the universe, each of which is a potential colony planet.

They developed this technology in order to transform these planets into an environment suitable for Kryptonians to live in.

The speed of the "World Engine" is astonishing, with a flight speed close to Mach 30, making it impossible for any weapon on Earth to catch up and effectively intercept it.

The arrival of these giant beasts indicates that the earth is about to usher in an unprecedented change.

Zod stood in front of the viewing window of the spaceship, looking at the busy scene on Earth, his heart full of anticipation and desire.

Decades of dreams were finally within reach at this moment. He seemed to have seen the rise of a new Krypton on Earth, where his people, his culture, and everything he had would be.

As the machine was put into place, the huge energy device slowly started up, as if a giant beast in ancient mythology had awakened, and the entire earth trembled slightly at this moment.

It was a deep-seated vibration, as if an unknown force beneath the earth's crust was being awakened, foreshadowing the coming change.

Buzz buzz————

This low and continuous sound, like an ancient call, sounded simultaneously in the Southern and Northern Hemispheres.

Two huge monsters, each standing on the two poles of the earth.

With a flash of light, the two world engines began to calibrate internally, and then, clear light blue plasma pulses shot out from their tops, like two beams of light connecting heaven and earth, instantly penetrating the earth's core, interweaving and exchanging back and forth, forming a strange energy cycle.

This force was so powerful that it not only affected the internal structure of the Earth, but also caused earth-shaking changes on the surface.

In the center of the metropolis, with this behemoth as the center, the ground around it seemed to be suddenly pressed down by an invisible hand. High-rise buildings collapsed under the tremendous pressure, and shocking cracks appeared on the ground, like scars on the earth.
