Chapter 577: Anti-Matter Universe
2022-10-19 Author: Great Demon Spirit
In the vast and boundless Multiverse, billions of universes are born and destroyed at every moment.
Every second, in countless parallel universes, all sorts of joys and sorrows play out, and the life trajectories of innumerable people differ from those of their doppelgangers.
But within the Multiverse, there is one universe that is the most special of all—the Anti-Matter Universe. With a diameter of thirty-two trillion light-years, it is frighteningly large. The 93 billion light-year diameter of the Prime Universe is like an ant in comparison.
All other universes can be called "Positive Matter Universes." The Anti-Matter Universe alone is different from all others; it is the antithesis of the Prime Universe, and can also be understood as the Prime Universe's doppelganger universe.
There, it is ruled by the powerful Mobius.
At the same time, it is also Sinestro's destination.
"I will return to take my revenge. I will kill all the Guardians with my own hands."
Filled with seething hatred, Sinestro slowly walked down from the spaceship. The shameful scars on his bare back were a sharp, stinging reminder.
"Hehehe, my friend, I will help you achieve your goal."
The burly Weapon Master let out a cold laugh, watching Sinestro with an amused expression.
Sinestro walked forward indifferently, stepping onto the ground of Qward. "You've been monitoring me."
"We weren't monitoring you; I was just monitoring that bunch of idiots on Oa. Saving you was merely a coincidence. And I'm genuinely curious to see how you, the former leader of the Green Lantern Corps, will exact your revenge upon them." The Weapon Master violently slammed the spaceship's door shut.
Sinestro's pace faltered for a moment before he continued walking as if nothing had happened. His mind, however, was racing, instantly retrieving all the secret knowledge and information he had ever absorbed.
There were rumors that the planet Qward was the doppelganger of the planet Oa. Perhaps it was true…
It was no secret that the Green Lantern Corps of the Prime Universe and the planet Qward of the Anti-Matter Universe were mortal enemies who had fought a blood war for countless years.
The Green Lantern Corps often had to battle the armies of Qward, and Sinestro himself had participated in the past. Moreover, his transformation from an archaeologist into a Green Lantern was due to him taking advantage of the Weapon Master.
The Weapon Master had snuck over from the Anti-Matter Universe and fought with a Lantern, attempting to seize his Green Lantern ring for research. But Sinestro had intercepted him, and the Weapon Master himself had been defeated by Sinestro.
From that moment on, the Weapon Master began to silently pay attention to Sinestro. He possessed superb forging skills, and the spaceships he built could slip past even the Guardians undetected, allowing him to travel easily between the two universes.
"I saved you. You need to pay me for it," the Weapon Master said coldly, gripping a hammer.
Without hesitation, Sinestro took off the ring on his left hand and tossed it to him. "This ring has been locked by those guys. It's useless now. It's yours. With your skills, you should be able to learn a lot from it."
"Not enough."
"I will provide you with intelligence on the Green Lantern Corps, as well as all the classified information I possess."
"Not enough."
The Weapon Master sneered, the veins on his thick arms bulging as if he were about to strike at any moment.
He was no philanthropist; of course, he would demand sufficient compensation. And what Sinestro had offered was not enough.
Sinestro spun around abruptly, his gaze sinister and icy. The former Green Lantern leader met the Weapon Master's eyes with a cruel expression.
After a long moment, Sinestro retracted his gaze and said coldly, "I need your skills. You will forge a new ring for me, and I will give you one of them."
"Deal!"
The Weapon Master suddenly broke into a grin, and the tense atmosphere instantly eased.
A massive palm slapped down on Sinestro's thin shoulder as the Weapon Master bared his menacing teeth. "Shouldn't you have just said so from the start? You've always known what I desire, and it's certainly not a useless Green Lantern ring."
"I need you to forge a Yellow Lantern Battery and Yellow Lantern Rings for me, starting by borrowing from the design of this Green Lantern ring," Sinestro said noncommittally.
The Weapon Master's expression flickered in surprise. "A Yellow Lantern Ring? Such a thing has never existed before. Your ambition is quite something."
"But your ambition is greater. Isn't forging a Yellow Lantern Ring to counter the Green Lantern ring exactly what you want?"
"You have a point..."
The Weapon Master smirked, withdrawing the hammer in his hand.
He was, without a doubt, the most outstanding master of equipment creation in the entire Anti-Matter Universe. With a Green Lantern ring as a specimen and the knowledge in Sinestro's head, it was highly likely the two of them could create the rings of fear.
The most troublesome part of forging a Green Lantern ring was connecting it to the Emotional Spectrum. They just needed to reference the Green Lantern ring in his hand for that.
"Come with me to my workshop. We'll get started right away," the Weapon Master said, glancing at the gloomy gray sky.
Sinestro asked, "Don't you need to report to Mobius? He is your master, after all."
"No need. Mobius doesn't care about such trivial matters. He hates being disturbed. A lot of self-righteous fools don't understand that, and they ended up getting killed by Mobius for it," the Weapon Master laughed in a low voice, a strange emotion lacing his tone.
It had been a very, very long time since Mobius had concerned himself with unrelated matters. No one knew what he was secretly preparing.
The Weapon Master was curious too, but he knew better than anyone that sometimes it was better to play dumb. Only those who knew how to play dumb could live longer.
The thought of the Yellow Lantern Ring that was about to be born in his hands made the Weapon Master's heart itch with anticipation, eager to start immediately.
He enjoyed the achievement of creating powerful weapons, but he enjoyed the process even more. This was also the reason he was able to become the greatest master of equipment creation.
Sinestro silently committed this information to memory, indifferently following the Weapon Master into his workshop.
He wanted revenge. As long as he could achieve this goal, he could abandon everything else.
The Green Lantern Corps? Then he would personally forge a Yellow Lantern Corps, a Sinestro Corps!
He would lead an army back to take his revenge!
The grand curtain was slowly drawn back, and the flames of vengeance burned brightly.
A legion equipped with the yellow light of fear, a natural counter to the Green Lantern Corps, would be enough to help him achieve his revenge.
"After we've created the Yellow Lantern Battery and a sufficient number of Yellow Lantern Rings, we will return to the Prime Universe and capture Parallax," Sinestro said.
"Parallax? Is that necessary?" the Weapon Master asked dismissively.
"If we don't take it, someone else will. Some people are always restless. Whether it's useful or not, it's better to have Parallax in our hands first," Sinestro said in a low voice.
"Do as you please. Also, I won't be participating in the battle. I'm only responsible for creating the equipment. Your disputes have nothing to do with me."
The Weapon Master scoffed and waved his hand.
