Chapter 391 I Don't Want to Be the Host of the Parallax Monster!

Chapter 391 I don't want to be the host of the Parallax Monster! Help!

A world at war.

Many years ago.

"Hurry, they're catching up with us!"

Mongo heard his mother's voice as they fled through ruins, the sounds of energy guns exploding and projectiles exploding behind them.

Mongo grabbed his mother by the back of the neck with his bare hands, lifted her up with his small body, and leaped away, dodging the roaring flames.

Even so, the two of them were thrown into the air by the explosion and landed on the ground, where the pursuers quickly caught up.

"The wasteland is not a place for weak Chuckgalan people to live."

A group of Kalisengir people, armed with energy guns and melee weapons stolen from a nearby crashed alien spaceship, surrounded the mother and child.

The leader had two dead people's skulls as decoration on his shoulders, and his yellow skin was covered with the pattern of iron chains.

He said:

"This place belongs to the Kalisengir tribe."

"Come closer," Mongo's mother said.

She stepped past her son, stood before the enemy, and drew the dagger from her waist.

"Kalisengir, you are facing Mongo's spouse and son."

"I don't see any Mongols here," said the leader of the Kalisengir men.

"There are only two weaklings waiting for us to have a good meal."

He raised the axe in his hand towards the two men.

However, at that moment, the roar of some kind of ferocious beast interrupted his actions.

"What was that sound?" young Mongo asked his mother.

"Grab your weapons and run!"

But the only response Mongo was his mother's scream and the terrified roar of the enemy who had just tried to turn them both into dinner:

"Forget about the Hakka folks, run to higher ground!"

A gigantic creature burst forth from behind the wasteland dunes, its blue scales reflecting the terrified yellow faces of everyone present.

The bull mammoth was a massive creature at least 30 times larger than a young Mongo, with sharp tusks, a huge mouth, and bony spikes all over its body, resembling a tusked bull on Earth.

The Kalisengir people unleashed a barrage of bullets and energy beams at the beast.

However, such attacks had no effect on the bull-mammoth. It only took it a few seconds to swiftly kill several little men who were shooting at it with guns, and then it set its sights on the last two little men who had fled the farthest.

He must stop his prey from escaping, starting with the ones that have fled the furthest.

After killing everyone, it will sit down and enjoy its dinner in peace. In the chaos, Mongo's mother pulls Mongo along as they desperately flee.

"It's charging!" Young Mongo felt his heart pounding; he had never faced such a huge beast before.

He told his mother, "Try to crawl into one..."

"...What are you doing?"

Mongo saw her mother pick up a stone from the ground and charge directly at the bull mammoth. The next moment, before young Mongo could stop her, she was pierced through the abdomen by the bone spikes on the bull mammoth's body.

"No!!!!"

Mongo roared, picked up a spear that had been thrown down by the pursuers, and charged straight at the bull mammoth. He deliberately made the bull mammoth open its mouth wide and swallow it whole, then used the spear to pierce the bull mammoth's brain through its eye socket.

"Aaaaaaaahh ...

"War reigns supreme..."

As the colossal beast crashed to the ground like a mountain, the surviving Kalisengir people saw young Mongo forcefully pry open the bull-mammoth's jaws and step out from between its tusks. He was covered in the bull-mammoth's blood, a veritable blood-soaked figure.

"Get out of the way."

He spoke to the stunned Kalisengir man before him.

The other party fled in terror.

He walked up to his mother and knelt down.

Mongo's mother was coughing softly. Large amounts of blood gushed from her mouth, clogging her airways.

"You see... cough cough cough... you can do it... powerful. The Karisongir people saw it," she said.

This was perhaps the gentlest thing Mongo had ever heard his mother say in his life.

"I will force them to treat you."

He turned to look at the group of surviving Kalisengir people.

"If they don't save you, I'll kill them all," Mongo said. "They live in the wasteland; they must have the means to heal..."

"It's no use," said Mongo's mother. "The Carisongir people do know how to heal, but they don't know how to heal fatal wounds."

With her still trembling hands, she lifted her dagger and handed it to Mongo:

"The two Kaliskis will now accept you into their tribe. They will teach you how to survive, but first, you..."

Mongo's mother gasped for breath and then said, "You must show them that you are just as heartless and ruthless as they are. Pick up this dagger and use it." Mongo lowered his blood-stained head.

"You said...you said the war zone tribes don't protect the weak. But you tried to protect me from being harmed by the bull mammoths."

He asked, "Why?"

But his mother did not answer his question.

The dying woman said only this:

"The current Mongo chose me, favored me. Then... he made a child into a burden for me, and then abandoned us in the wasteland to fend for ourselves."

The Kalisangir people gathered around. They watched the young king in silence.

"Let's do it."

His mother said.

"You must kill the current Mongo and avenge us both."

She said:

"So now, show others how ruthless you are."

"Let's do it."

She repeated the order she had given to her son.

"Yes, Mother," Mongo said.

He raised the dagger his mother had just handed him high: "And, about revenge..."

"I will."

Mongo's mother closed her eyes.

Then... came the sound of a blade piercing flesh.

"I swear to you. I will become the new Mongo, while the current Mongo will await death in some distant land, unprotected by his gods. His soul will be lost forever in nothingness."

"When death comes to him, his soul will only merge with the world of war, and be reborn as a worm that feeds on the wounds of the dead."

"When death comes to him, he will not awaken in the Garden of the Dead with those brave warriors of the war zone; he will only become withered grass, maggots, or scavengers, and there will be no piece of metal engraved with his name."

Before his mother's body, young Mongo made a vow.

He whispered...

"The deceased...said so."

……

Chen Tao pushed the scarecrow out.

He was pondering his plan in his mind.

Parallax is definitely the first of the seven lanterns to possess others, and it also possesses the most characters, as well as having the highest abilities and expressiveness.

Even when Parallax first possessed Hal, it instantly elevated Parallax Demon Hal to a multiverse-level powerhouse.

But this does not mean that Parallax is invincible.

For the Lantern Beasts, they are the materialized embodiment of emotional energy in the universe. Therefore, the strength they display after possessing others often depends on the power of the host.

When Parallax possessed Green Lantern Hal Jordan, he was able to fight almost all the heroes in the entire DC universe single-handedly, nearly rebooting reality.

(Note: This refers to the DC event "Zero Hour". In Green Lantern v3 episode 50, the event "Emerald Twilight", Hal Jordan, after turning to the dark side, activates the Green Lantern's central energy cell and merges with Parallax. In "Zero Hour", he attempts to restore Seashore by destroying the existing universe and creating a new world.)

Even when the ghost and Parallax were fighting over Hal's body, Parallax Hal was still relentlessly attacking the Justice League while fighting the ghost, leaving them lying on the ground. (Note: from Green Lantern: Rebirth) Doctor Fate and Zatanna's magic were rendered ineffective by fear.

However, when Parallax possesses other people, the record isn't so outrageous.

For example, Parallax once possessed this little blue man who was expelled from the Guardians of the Universe because he still had emotions (Green Lantern: Rebirth Episode 5). As a result, he was defeated by Green Lantern Hal and the other 4 Green Lanterns, a total of 5 Lanterns. They separated Parallax from Ganther and then imprisoned him in the 4 Green Lantern Furnaces. Although Parallax Ganther once suppressed the 5 Lanterns, he actually only blocked the first round of attacks from the 1 Green Lanterns, which was quite embarrassing.

This is also one of the origins of the famous green light meme, "If the green light goes past five, the whole team will be wiped out."

Later, Parallax possessed many other characters, such as Kyle Reyna and Barry Allen the Flash, but none of them actually performed well.

Only in "The Wrath of Genie A.E.", Sinestro forcibly tamed Parallax with his willpower in a critical moment, and used his power to rip out Genie A.E.'s heart in one blow. Keep in mind that this was Genie A.E., who was completely free and in his prime. The attacks from the other Genie groups were like tickling him.

Even so, Parallax Sinestro's record is vastly different from Parallax Mohal's, and cannot be compared at all.

Cardona once made a very sharp comment about Seneca: "You have a very strong will, but you lack a strong heart."

(Note: This comment comes from the major event "Green Light Battle")

A Green Lantern with such strong willpower as Hal Jordan is one of a kind in the entire universe.

Each of the seven members of the Justice League possesses a unique and irreplaceable quality.

Therefore, Chen Tao never thought that the Scarecrow, after being possessed by the Parallax Monster, could suddenly become so powerful that it would exceed his control.

However, on another level, the scarecrow is the best candidate to be possessed by the parallax monster.

Parallax prefers hosts who can project immense fear into others, or hosts who harbor fear within themselves, such as Barry Allen, the Flash.

However, most of the time, apart from parallax monsters like Ganther and Kyle, who are basically hosts that parallax monsters had no other choice but to fill in (note: and these two hosts are also the ones who performed the worst after being possessed by parallax monsters), parallax monsters always prefer those who are good at instilling fear.

For example, Hal, who slaughtered the entire planet OA and stole the Green Lantern's central energy battery, was practically the perfect host for Parallax monsters.

So much so that years later, when Hal beckoned to him, he immediately defected on the battlefield, abandoning Kyle Reyner and trying to return to Hal's embrace.

Therefore, for Parallax monsters, a scarecrow with the ability to instill fear in others is definitely an attractive object.

Of course, Chen Tao never considered challenging Parallax himself. Throughout the history of the comics, only Sinestro, after years of leading the Yellow Lantern Corps, managed to control Parallax while still retaining his own will. Every other host controlled by Parallax was completely controlled by Parallax and lost their own identity.

Or rather, each of the seven lantern beasts, when possessing a body, uses their own will to replace the host's will—

Leaving aside the previous possession of Supreme Superman by Blood Slaughter Bull, it has already been said that Supreme Superman is a perfect Superman, and is very likely the strongest Superman in the main universe except for Superman in special states. His ability to be exempt from Blood Slaughter Bull's control was purely a miracle of brute force, and does not mean that others can do it. At least Chen Tao felt that he could not.

Sinestro and Mongo were still thinking about controlling Parallax, but Chen Tao's assessment was that they hadn't been beaten up by Parallax. That's true, since the Emerald Twilight event in this universe never happened. Everyone knows that Parallax is very strong, but no one really has a concept of how strong it is, and their understanding of the extent to which Lantern Beasts can control their hosts is also very shallow.

Therefore, Chen Tao decided to leave the challenge of Parallax to someone else. He only needed to teleport the scarecrow, which was already possessed by Parallax, away, and the other party wouldn't be here...

Chen Tao was still pondering when he saw the Parallax Monster bypass the scarecrow he had pushed out and was floating in space, and fly straight toward him.

"????"

"What do you mean?"

"Batman from Earth—"

"You possess the ability to project immense fear into others..."

"Become my host..."

"????"

Not far away, Mongo's eyes widened in surprise.

He had planned this for so long, but Parallax didn't even glance at him. Even if the other party chose Senito, he could accept it!

"Come back, Parallax, obey my commands..."

He used some of the methods he had learned from Calona and the first Lantern to attract the Lantern Beasts, but Parallax didn't even glance at him.

"Damn it..." Sinestro tried to swing the chains to pull Parallax, but he couldn't control the huge yellow lantern beast at all, which charged straight at Batman.

Immediately afterwards, everyone heard Batman scream: "Aaaaaah! Don't come any closer! Get away from me!!!! Help!"

Mongo's eyes turned red.

You still complain about the Parallax monster that I've been longing for?

He looked through the yellow light ring and asked the death storm:

"Why haven't you made a move yet?"
