Chapter 69 - 69

Blood Slaughter Ox was completely stunned after seeing the Republic man successfully awaken the Ancestral Red Lantern Ring.

She was indeed a newborn Lantern Beast, but she was only a Lantern Beast, existing in a symbiotic state with the Ancestral Lantern Furnace.

She could grow within the Ancestral Lantern Furnace, use its power to possess Lantern Ring wielder, and even manipulate the Lantern Furnace at times, but she could not influence the Lantern Ring's choice of Corps members.

As Blood Slaughter Ox, a Lantern Beast born from Rage Red Light, she possessed an innate wealth of knowledge and understanding. In her impression, apostles of Rage Red Light were always in a state of extreme rage and hatred.

Even if they could control their mind and body at first, their limited humanity would eventually be eroded by that Eternal rage, leaving only a body controlled by fury.

Shouldn't their faces always be the kind that would immediately start fighting to the death without a word?

After Li Chengfeng put on the Ancestral Red Lantern Ring, not only was he not dominated by rage, but he even showed a gentle smile.

He initially thought it was the Will Green Light's resistance to Rage Red Light that allowed him to maintain his sanity.

But the little Ox immediately discovered that because Ion Shark had forcibly merged in its juvenile period, temporarily becoming Ion Man, the Ancestral green lantern power battery and Lantern Ring had temporarily run out of energy, and the Green Lantern transformation had also been dispelled.

In other words...

It was entirely by his own Will!?

"By the Ox's leg, no wonder the Lantern Beast's memories all say, 'Don't mess with lone Green Lanterns.' The advantage Will Green Light has when facing other colors of the Emotional Spectrum alone is truly not insignificant."

"What are you mumbling about, little Ox?"

"Little Ox, I've really learned a lot this time," Blood Slaughter Ox stared with a pair of curious large Ox eyes at the man who had just transformed from Ion Man into a Red Lantern Devil. "Possessing both a Green Lantern Ring and a Red Lantern Ring, how should I describe it? A contradiction in terms?"

Li Chengfeng looked at the seemingly "very silly, very innocent" loli Blood Slaughter Ox and suddenly wondered if he was destined to collect all the newborn Lantern Beasts.

Damn it...

What Emotional Spectrum version of the Six Paths Sage.

However, speaking of Lantern Beasts, Crispy Shark, after disengaging from its Ion Man possession, immediately returned to the green lantern power battery to sleep.

Li Chengfeng knew that activating Ion Man's absurd abilities was too great a burden for the newborn Crispy Shark and the Ancestral Lantern Furnace.

For now, he had to say "goodbye" to the Green Lantern power temporarily.

It seems Ion Man's power can only be used as an emergency trump card in the future...

After all, he can't always think of draining that young shark boy dry.

That feeling of kidney deficiency, just hearing about it made him feel phantom pains in his own kidneys.

But the Ancestral Red Lantern could perfectly fill the current void.

Furthermore, in terms of destructive power and aggressiveness, Red Lantern was even superior.

And this Ancestral Red Lantern, created by Li Chengfeng through Ion Man's power, did not have as many negative effects as in the original work.

Although rage, hatred, and resistance to injustice would still cause the Red Lantern Ring wielder to fall into Eternal fury, perhaps because it was shaped by and integrated with the power of Ion Man and Will Green Light, this fury could be controlled within a manageable range.

After transformation, the raging Red energy would still surge through the blood vessels, but phenomena such as the ring replacing the heart or dying upon removing the ring would absolutely not occur.

In a sense, the "evil" attributes originally associated with Red Lantern were largely washed away.

Li Chengfeng was quite satisfied with this result.

He was genuinely afraid that the Red Lantern Corps would truly become a group of irrational destroyers who would tarnish his reputation.

Dr. Liang Liang, who witnessed the entire process, remained in a state of bulging eyes and a wide-open mouth.

How did he manage to make such cartoonishly exaggerated expressions with an ordinary human face?

It couldn't be a unique skill of their Foundation Universe, could it?

"Hey, Dr. Liang Liang, what are you spacing out for?"

Dr. Liang Liang's soul, which had flown out of his body, was pulled back by Li Chengfeng's words.

What had he just witnessed!?

It was a Dimensional Devil God, or rather, a High Divinity, residing in that crimson Universe, crossing Universal boundaries to deal with a human!

Then this human suddenly briefly transformed into another High Divinity... no, it should be an incomplete High Divinity, seemingly not at its peak.

What's the deal with this FBI agent?

A Zhongshan Mary who could temporarily transform while still in a three-dimensional World!?

He had always believed that the Foundation Universe was the most bizarre among all Universes.

But now he had to admit that there were many bizarre ones, and the Foundation could no longer claim to be the "most"; it was merely "one of."

"Did you just... briefly rewrite reality?"

Whether it was severing the High Divinity's link to the real World or rewriting the properties of the crimson gem, it was clearly permanent.

This was not something those annoying "reality warpers" could do.

Moreover, ever since his soul entered SCP-963, no matter which Universe he was in, he would almost always be recognized by the Universal Will as one of the "Constant."

This meant that any degree of reality rewriting happening near him would be perceived by him.

"I guess so?"

Li Chengfeng scratched his head. Ion Man, as one of the pinnacles of the Lantern Corps system, had incredibly exaggerated high-end performances.

Manipulating time, rewriting reality.

Even battling the notoriously buggy character Superman to the point of destroying several Universes.

While Blood Slaughter Ox, judging solely by high-end performance, was still far behind the two Lantern Beast pinnacles, Ion Shark and Overseer Monster, she was still much stronger than the other Lantern Beasts.

She possessed an ordinary father whose daughter was raped and brutally murdered, then brutally killed the rapist, and then severely thrashed the arriving Spectre.

The rage fueled by paternal love was enough to burn God's spirit of vengeance.

But these performances were all based on the Lantern Corps and Lantern Beasts having existed and grown for a very long time.

These two kindergarten-level Lantern Beasts in Li Chengfeng's hands were so depleted after merging for a while that they collapsed!

Damn it, I shouldn't call this the Green Lantern Corps or Red Lantern Corps anymore; I should rename it the Ion Shark Nursery and Blood Slaughter Ox Daycare.

"Then what's the difference between you and a God now!?

"Have you ever seen a God that's so short and weak!?

Dr. Liang Liang rolled his eyes.

Nonsense!

Who knows if you're just putting on an act!

"Now that the problem is solved, have you made a decision?"

Li Chengfeng materialized a scorching hot pointer with Rage Red Light and picked up the ruby pendant around Dr. Liang Liang's neck.

"Are you going to obediently come back to the Federal Bureau of Investigation with me?"

"Or will you offer useless resistance and be buried by me in an ocean trench where the sun never shines?"
