American comics: Random transformations

"Hey!! You're TMD too hot! I almost turned into an Orleans roasted wing!"

Garfield's soul cursed, causing Groudon to restrain the heat waves within its body. The magma beneath its feet, deprived of heat, began to thicken.

But Groudon was still very hot, with a temperature like that of magma from the earth's core—no, even hotter than that, so hot that it was impossible to approach.

"Roar! -- Roar roar."

(I need a translator, Garfield, help me.)

It stepped out of the magma and took a few steps towards Garfield, the ground trembling under its weight.

Parrot Garfield quickly retreated.

"Damn it, help your grandpa! Stay away from me, I'll get roasted."

It was still more than ten meters away from Groudon, and the feathers on the parrot's body were already singed by the heat waves. Getting closer would be certain death.

Garfield the cat hadn't learned how to swim in magma yet.

"Roar roar, Roar --"

(Alright, then go warn the Kryptonians. If they don't leave, I'll blast them to death with a Destruction Beam!)

Groudon stared at Garfield the cat with sharp eyes, full of confidence.

"So confident? Is your transformation really strong now? Provoking them like that will get you killed."

"Roar…!"

(Kidding, am I afraid? I'm super strong, okay!)

"Alright. If you get beaten, don't call me to save you."

Garfield shook his whole body, shedding all the burnt feathers. New feathers grew quickly, and he flew towards the Kryptonians who were watching the show.

… … … … … …

Zero-frame startup area loudspeaker.

In simple terms, it's group taunting.

"Kryptonians, all of you get out of Earth, or you'll get beaten up by my boss! He'll definitely use his boots to kick your asses hard!"

General Zod turned to Superman and asked, "Your pet? It might be brain damaged."

Superman ignored him and said to Parrot Garfield, "Does your organization also want to interfere? No need, I'll handle it. It's dangerous here, you should leave quickly!"

Faora didn't play fair and punched Superman, who was feeling generous, away. "Kal, daring to be distracted while fighting me, you're asking for death."

Garfield also ignored the brain-damaged Superman, disregarding his and Faora's brutal play.

He once again threatened General Zod: "Kryptonians, get out of Earth. This isn't a place that refugees from ruined planets like you can touch. Don't force our hand. Leaving on your own is better than being kicked out, don't say I didn't give you a chance."

General Zod's expression instantly turned gloomy. Now, Krypton was his sore spot.

Anyone who dared to slander Krypton, anyone who dared to stop him from restoring Krypton, would die! His subordinates thought the same, each staring at Garfield with a fierce look.

If they hadn't spent too little time basking in the sun on Earth, otherwise, having awakened their heat vision, they could definitely kill this… foul-mouthed bird with a single glare.

Zod ordered:

"Kill it, Krypton must not be slandered."

Bang! Bang! Bang! Three sonic booms.

Three warriors rushed forward, ready to beat Garfield into minced meat.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Three metallic hammering echoes.

Three Kryptonians each took a punch and flew backwards.

Parrot Garfield's wings had turned into two arms, the arm muscles were knotted, strong and powerful, easily knocking away the Kryptonian warriors.

Zod's expression was shocked. He had seen many scenes in his years of conquering the universe. There were many creatures that could transform in the universe, but this was the first time he had seen one with such strong combat power.

Without using any technological equipment, relying on the pure power of the flesh, he knocked away the armor made by their top technology!

What a monster!

"You don't even have the strength to hit people, and you're still embarrassed to call yourselves Kryptonians? Get lost early!"

Garfield said disdainfully, his tone full of contempt for the Kryptonians.

The beaten Superman: …Felt offended.

Groudon not far away: ? What's going on, didn't you say you wanted me to come? Garfield, why did you go first?

The red figure walked towards them, each of its footprints turning into magma.

General Zod didn't want to waste any more time.

"Kill them, everyone attack!"

Twenty soldiers attacked together, all energy weapons aimed at Garfield and Groudon.

Massacre, it's faster to use weapons.

Do do do do......

Beams of light were fired in rapid succession, shooting wildly.

The macaw had already turned back into Garfield the cat, dodging all the shots with a nimble and lightning-fast movement.

Groudon was thick-skinned, and the laser beams couldn't even tickle it. The red armor was not afraid of any high-temperature weapons.

Groudon's golden eyes lit up, and the ground around it began to vibrate continuously. This wasn't the [Earthquake] skill, but the prelude to another skill.

[Precipice Blades]!

Sharp rocks rapidly broke through the surface, and the terrifying force sent General Zod and his subordinates flying. Cracks appeared in their battle suits from this physical impact.

Seeing all her teammates being knocked away, Faora abandoned her fight with Superman to help her general.

The damage to the battle suits made the Kryptonians inside very uncomfortable. The chaotic noise and multiple visual afterimages made them feel that something must be wrong.

Seeing her general and teammates in such pain, Faora, filled with anger, set her sights on Groudon.

Moving at full speed, Groudon's somewhat dull reaction ability couldn't keep up at all, just like Superman before, it had to endure the attack.

Faora's attack couldn't move it either. With Groudon prepared, no one could knock it away, not even a whale. The whale's full-force impact could only push it back a little, not knock it away.

Her armor was slightly red on the outside due to the long time spent attacking Groudon during the battle, like the heat produced by metal after repeated hammering.

General Zod seemed to be adapting to his new body, his strength and speed growing at a rapid pace.

His participation in the battle finally forced Groudon to take a step back.

The hot-tempered Groudon immediately swung its crimson claws, the powerful claws colliding with Zod's fist.

They were evenly matched.

"Roar—!"

(Are you kidding me? Zod's getting stronger way too fast!)

Thinking for a moment, Groudon flipped through its skill list and found it hadn't learned any control skills, but it had a bunch of area-of-effect skills.

It chose a familiar one.

[Blast Burn]!

A large character formed of flames shot out of Groudon's mouth, blasting Zod and Faora away.

The cracks in Zod's armor grew larger.

… … … … … …

Groudon didn't continue its attack. That last hit was super effective, and Faora and Zod both needed a moment to recover.

It looked towards Superman and Garfield.

"Roar—!"

(Why were you two just watching! Are you betraying me!)

Garfield rolled its eyes. What was that supposed to mean? It was so hot over there, it would be roasted dry if it went over!

Superman was just a naive simpleton. From his perspective, the big red dinosaur slapped Faora away in one hit, and a burst of fire sent General Zod sprawling. There was no need for him to intervene at all.

General Zod got up from the ground, his eyes unfocused, occasionally crossing slightly, probably adjusting to the sensory experience brought by his super vision.

Faora's adaptation ability was clearly worse than his. Her cracked armor left her sprawled on the ground, unable to move, the terrifying noise ravaging her mind.

"Roar!"

(Looks like the boss is about to enter its second form.)

Chapter 57 You've Been Enhanced, Go!

Superman was the first to fly near Groudon. He felt that getting close to this monster inexplicably made him stronger, the monster was like another sun.

At the same time, he also noticed Zod's strangeness.

Zod's gaze was erratic, flickering, like he was about to awaken his superpowers. He had lost control back then and burned down half a classroom.

Losing control when a power has just awakened is a very dangerous thing.

Superman wanted to help Groudon. Because in Superman's eyes, this red monster wasn't strong enough to withstand a single punch from him.

Garfield, on the other hand, ran a little further away. It intended to deal with the Kryptonian soldiers lying on the ground, enduring pain. These guys were potential bombs.

Many parasites flew out of Garfield's body, creatures simulated using ultimate lifeform cells.

It took advantage of the Kryptonians awakening their superpowers to let these little guys burrow into the Kryptonians' bodies.

Those parasites would eat their cells to strengthen themselves, becoming super parasites.

When the Kryptonian soldiers were strengthened to Superman's level, they would torment themselves.

The battlefield was thus divided. Groudon and Superman prepared to fight Zod and Faora, while Garfield bullied ordinary Kryptonian soldiers.

— — — — — — — — — —

Zod's eyes were already bloodshot, the whites of his eyes flickering, as if something was about to explode, until he suddenly looked up, and the heat vision energy began to erupt uncontrollably.

Two scarlet beams were suddenly fired, attacking Groudon, the largest target. The attack effect of the beams was very average, and Groudon's hard armor easily resisted the lasers.

Zod blinked, and his heat vision was turned off, the laser eyes having been brought under control.

Then, his X-ray vision involuntarily turned on again, allowing him to directly see through the armor on his body, seeing his hands, muscles, hand bones, and the bones of his entire body.

Interestingly, Zod discovered that the density of his muscles was constantly adjusting, feeling itchy and full of vitality all over.

"Hahahaha, Kal-El, it seems your power was not obtained through modification.

It turns out it's this special planet! It gives me a constant stream of power, this planet is better than I thought."

Zod retracted his mask, the sudden power making him think it was given to him by Earth.

He took a deep breath of genuine Earth air, and immediately frowned, feeling that this air was far worse than Krypton's, and the air would need to be modified in the future.

"If you are willing to stop, I will help you find a suitable living environment on Earth!"

Superman was still trying to persuade him, he felt that Zod, the general who was wholeheartedly for Krypton, was very good.

If he allowed the Kryptonians to live down, giving them a perfect development environment, Zod wouldn't need to compete with him! After all, Krypton was destroyed, they were all refugees, wouldn't it be good to have a place to develop?

Letting General Zod be wholeheartedly for Earth would make Earth even safer.

Another point was that, after the battle just now, Superman felt that with his power, he could suppress General Zod and his group.

But what he didn't know was that these words of persuasion were an insult to General Zod.

Persuading him to give up his Krypton? Then why did he come all the way here to find the son of Jor-El? Wasn't he here to revive Krypton!

This was his goal in life, and no one could change it!

Superman provoked his anger, and Zod now just wanted to have a good fight and vent his anger!

Due to the Kryptonians' perception of their own abilities, there was a general deviation, just like Superman felt that he could suppress all Kryptonians.

General Zod was also very confident. He was confident that he, who had become stronger, might kill Superman with one punch, which would lose the clues to the Codex, and wouldn't be worth it.

So, he picked one that looked more powerful to fight.

He clenched his fist, ignored Superman, and faced the red monster. He rushed up and punched it.
