Chapter 119: Supreme Alliance! Multiversal War!
1:43 AM.
The lights of the Daily Planet were still as bright as day.
The sound of tapping keyboards, the hum of the printer processing paper, and the incessant ringing of telephones intertwined, leaving the reporters working overtime with bloodshot eyes.
The air was thick with the aroma of coffee and a palpable tension.
“Alright, alright, once this report is finished, we’re going home,” Lois Lane said, sitting at her workstation, her computer screen flickering with an unfinished manuscript.
“Just a little longer, I’ll be done soon, thirty minutes at most, no, about forty minutes,” Lois typed rapidly, softly coaxing the restless cat in her arms.
“Ding dong~”
Just then.
The elevator doors slowly opened.
A tall figure emerged from the elevator.
Her skin was so pale it was almost translucent.
It shone with a cool, metallic luster under the light.
The woman was none other than Wonder Woman Diana, who was supposed to be with Superman in the outskirts dealing with those clones. She appeared to have clones herself, being in two different places simultaneously.
Compared to the Wonder Woman in the outskirts, the one at the newspaper agency was clearly not fully armed. She wore a neatly tailored women’s suit, looking exceptionally elegant.
Her long hair cascaded over her shoulders, her eyes deep.
Her steps were steady and firm, as if she were already familiar with the surroundings.
“Lois,” the pale-skinned Diana said softly as she walked past a group of reporters intensely discussing news leads, heading towards Lois Lane’s workstation.
Several editors hurried past her.
Yet none noticed the goddess’s unusually slow blinking frequency.
“Meow~”
Only the cat in Lois’s arms, bristling at the goddess, jumped onto the table. Its wildly moving tail swept across the keyboard, typing a string of garbled characters on Lois’s computer.
“A cat wouldn’t know how to edit a good news story,” Lois quickly cradled the cat again, looking up at the Wonder Woman who had appeared at the newspaper agency.
“Diana? What are you doing in Metropolis?” She glanced at the time on her computer screen, a hint of confusion on her face, as normally superheroes wouldn’t just drop by late at night.
“Clark sent me to pick you up.”
Diana smiled.
Her voice carried a convincing gentleness.
“Huh?”
Lois blinked, then seemed to understand, sighing heavily. She scooped up the bristling cat with one hand. “Is this another alien invasion?”
“Or have those mad scientists cooked up some new trick?” As she spoke, Lois skillfully saved her document and grabbed her coat.
She seemed accustomed to this kind of life.
“A group of Superman clones have gone out of control.”
Diana shrugged.
Her tone carried just the right amount of concern.
Her emotional expression was perfectly conveyed.
“A group of clones? Okay… I knew my father wasn’t telling me the whole truth,” Lois mused, following Diana towards the elevator.
“Will my colleagues be in danger?”
Lois had a good deal of trust in the Justice League, especially since the atmosphere within the Justice League had improved considerably over the years. She and Wonder Woman Diana actually had a decent personal relationship.
“Those clones are after you, so we just need to hide you,” Diana said as she led Lois into the elevator, frowning at the cat in Lois’s arms that kept growling at her.
“Can we leave it here?”
It was evident.
The cat’s growls were highly irritating to this Diana.
“We have pet thieves at our newspaper agency, I don’t want my pet stolen,” Lois replied evasively while still comforting the cat, politely declining Diana’s request.
Diana didn’t press the issue further.
She merely nodded.
After pressing the floor button, her gaze remained fixed on Lois—or more accurately, on Lois’s neck. The Wonder Woman seemed to be suppressing an impulse, swallowing frequently.
The elevator descended.
Meanwhile.
In the newspaper agency upstairs.
A dazzling red light suddenly streaked across the sky outside the window.
Accompanied by the crackling sound of tearing air, a strong wind swept in, scattering a pile of papers from the desks into the air. A figure crashed into the newspaper lobby like a meteor.
“What’s going on?”
A group of reporters exclaimed, turning their heads.
They saw.
A man in a leather suit, reeking of burnt leather, crackling with electricity, and with a trembling jaw, was now “standing” in the very center of the newspaper agency.
“The Flash?”
Someone recognized the familiar uniform and the still-trembling head, exclaiming, “Is this performance art, or are your legs injured?”
Many reporters felt their eyes needed a good wash in the restroom. After all, the Flash who appeared before them looked so “twisted” and bizarre.
It made their sanity drop precipitously.
“This is called parking with the engine still running; you definitely don’t have driver’s licenses,” Ian said, hands on the ground, legs spread in a splits, his feet, bound by external Speed Force equipment, rotating in the air on either side—like he was doing some strange gymnastic move, or like two malfunctioning helicopter rotors.
The Speed Force flickered wildly, accompanied by the real arcs of electricity on Ian. If one ignored his “frozen” pose, he did indeed have some of the effects befitting the Flash.
“Even though you have incredible electric sound now, haven’t you noticed that your way of speaking… is very similar to that new version of Superman who, while saving a plane, actually scared all the passengers into desensitization?”
Among the reporters, there were certainly no shortage of keen observers.
“Stop asking such foolish questions. If you were smart enough, you’d know I’m the real Flash—now, tell me, has anyone been here recently?”
Ian had no time for banter with the reporters. He looked around, not finding his mother, and directly asked the reporter who approached him.
“Yes, someone was here. I remember it was Diana Prince? She seems to be friends with Lois, and they just went into the elevator. I interviewed the museum where Ms. Prince works three years ago.”
“Those long legs really made a deep impression…” The reporter, who had intended to interview Ian after answering, saw Ian lower his restlessly moving legs.
Red lightning appeared again.
He shot towards the window.
As if he had just jumped off the building from where he stood.
“This is the eighteenth floor.”
The gust of wind stirred up the reporters’ hair. They couldn’t bother to steady their spinning office chairs or the flying printer paper, all crowding to the window to look down.
However.
Nothing could be seen.
The speed of ordinary humans was indeed too slow compared to a speedster.
“Damn it! It must be a fake Wonder Woman!”
Before the reporters could react, Ian was already blocking the elevator entrance on the first floor. He spun wildly hundreds of times in place, finally using his brakes to stop himself in front of the elevator.
Hands on the ground.
He hesitated whether to remove his external “exoskeleton” leg during combat. Even without the shared brain, Ian, relying solely on his super intelligence, had largely grasped the situation.
Wonder Woman was supposed to be dealing with the clones with his father, so how could she suddenly appear at the newspaper agency to take Lois away? Reverse-Flash’s mention of losing family might not necessarily mean losing his father!
It could also mean losing his mother!
This would not only cause Superman’s son to turn evil but could also cause Superman himself to turn evil—killing two birds with one stone, it would also become a catalyst for the downfall of the Justice League and even the collapse of the entire world!
A Superman devoid of justice!
Would mean Earth losing everything!
“Parallel universe invasion? Or does Wonder Woman also have her own clones? Or maybe some shapeshifter is causing trouble!” Ian couldn’t sort out the information for now.
All he knew was that he had to save his mother.
Not just for his father.
But also for their little family.
“Ding dong~”
Ian was ready for battle.
However.
As the elevator doors slowly opened.
There was no one inside.
He had failed to intercept Diana who had taken Lois away.
“Damn Speedster Law! Always one step too late!” Ian cursed, his gaze frantically scanning the street, searching the surroundings in the night. Fortunately, he wasn’t a true speedster; the fastest person never seemed to arrive in time to save the day, and that wasn’t happening to him, the real Flash.
“Over there!”
Ian sprinted out again.
Meanwhile.
In a dark alley.
The tall buildings on both sides blocked the moonlight.
Only the faint light from distant street lamps cast dappled shadows. The air was filled with the scent of dampness and rotting garbage. The wind blew from the alley entrance, stirring up a few tattered newspapers.
They gently fluttered to the ground.
“Alright, this is it.”
Diana, who was walking ahead, suddenly stopped.
“Are you going to kill me here?”
Lois’s voice came from behind, calm yet tinged with a hint of probing.
“Oh?”
A slightly surprised Diana slowly turned around, the faint streetlight illuminating her pale face with an eerie glow. The warmth and passion had vanished from her eyes.
“How did you find out?”
Diana’s tone had become cold.
“Clark would never send someone to take me away; he would come to save me himself,” Lois said with certainty and gentleness, perhaps this was the romance of middle age.
The pale-skinned Diana seemed to be force-fed dog food.
She frowned.
“I see. But since you discovered the problem, why did you still come out with me?” She didn’t seem particularly anxious, observing the ordinary Lois with a curious gaze.
“I can’t let you kill my colleagues and my boss—I’ve accumulated a lot of bonuses this month,” Lois replied seriously.
She truly didn’t want to see this altered Diana commit innocent murders.
“Such a spirit of sacrifice, befitting Superman’s eternal wife.”
Hearing Lois’s words, Diana couldn’t help but chuckle. She looked at the female reporter before her, a flicker of admiration in her eyes, but it was quickly replaced by coldness.
“However, I regret to inform you that you won’t have the chance to use your bonuses in the future.” Diana’s lips curved into a smile, revealing sharp fangs.
Her eyes glinted with a chilling cold light in the darkness.
“We need you to die here… Don’t worry, I’ll make good use of your blood.” Diana looked like a vampire, perhaps she was indeed a vampire.
This was clearly not the Wonder Woman from this universe.
Facing this scene.
Lois showed no fear.
“In fact, I don’t bring my cat to work for no reason.” She held up the orange cat in her arms and whispered a promise in its ear.
The next moment.
A scorching red beam erupted from its eyes.
A scorching beam of red light erupted from its eyes.
Straight towards the vampire Diana!
BOOM!!
A violent explosion instantly engulfed the entire alley.
“The cat did it!”
Lois let out a long sigh, stroking the cat’s head.
The shockwave knocked over trash cans, and the walls were scorched black. Diana was blasted away by the heat ray, crashing heavily into the wall and embedding herself in the rubble.
Amidst the flying dust.
Lois felt a gust of wind pass by her, and a red figure, following the trajectory of the super cat’s heat ray, rushed directly into the rubble where the vampire Diana had been smashed.
“Is my contribution not significant? I’ve also uncovered a conspiracy that even the Justice League hasn’t discovered!” someone attempted to steal credit from the cat, engaging in a battle with the rising vampire Diana amidst the flying dust.
Rumble!
The sound of cracking bricks and stones echoed through the night.
The battle was exceptionally fierce.
It was still close-quarters combat.
“Damn it! What’s in your blood!” Accompanied by a series of loud noises and angry roars filled with uncertainty, the red figure flew back at an even faster speed.
*Splat*~
The man in the tight suit landed heavily at Lois’s feet.
His uniform on his neck had been bitten through, and there was a clear, deep bite mark on his flesh. Of course, it wasn’t a big problem; for Ian, it was still a form of reward.
And it was a double reward.
【 Berserker Experience Points +6】
【 Encountered vampire virus infection, Berserker Experience Points +13】
【 Ingested super chemical virus product, Savage Tyrant Experience Points +49】
…
Ian didn’t have time to be happy.
He lay on the ground and opened his eyes, only to see Lois holding a cat appear above his field of vision, staring at his constantly vibrating lips with a hesitant expression.
“I’m not Ian, I’m The Flash – Barry Allen!” Ian, unwilling to have a losing record in his career, emphasized this preemptively before his mother could even speak.
He flipped himself up like a carp, still in a seated position with his hands on the ground and legs spread wide on either side, his unruly external calves making him spin in circles.
“…”
Lois was finally certain of “The Flash’s” identity.
“Did you take apart your Uncle Barry’s body parts?”
She was greatly shocked.
It wasn’t surprising that Lois’s tone was so worried.
She thought it was entirely possible for Ian to do something like that given his condition.
“Shh~ Don’t interfere with The Flash’s battle.”
Ian first reminded Lois, then looked up at Diana, who was emerging from the ruins, “This woman must have implanted alloy prosthetics in her body!”
“She’s just like a Superman!”
“Her face was so hard that even heat rays couldn’t shatter it, and any part of her body was incredibly tough, I almost lost a few of my front teeth!” Ian was bitten by a vampire.
He, who always sought revenge, naturally bit back on the spot.
It was just that his teeth couldn’t match hers.
He couldn’t even bite through the soft spots on her.
“??????”
Ian’s statement.
Made Lois, whom he was protecting behind him, too afraid to ask.
Mother truly didn’t want to know what attempts Ian had made before.
Just then.
Lois finally noticed the bite marks on Ian’s neck.
“Were you bitten by a vampire?”
She was greatly alarmed.
She hurried forward.
Worrying if Ian would also turn into a vampire.
“We need to find your father!” Mother was clearly a bit flustered. Facing such a serious situation, the first person she thought of was naturally Clark.
“No big problem.”
Ian looked at Diana, who was staggering out of the ruins.
He hadn’t mutated.
But after drinking his blood, the vampire Diana was completely different – this goddess was completely green in some places and red in others, looking like a colorful mushroom.
She also had a sense of shaky weakness.
“Gag, gag, gag~”
Diana threw up violently on the ground.
It was very clear.
She was the one who had been poisoned and incapacitated.
“Ian, what did you do to her?” Lois was also stunned to see the Amazon warrior turned into a rainbow person; just how much technology and ruthless tactics were inside her child, who had pica?
“I already told you I’m The Flash… uh, fine, I’m Ian.” Ian initially wanted to be stubborn, but upon seeing Lois’s displeased gaze, he promptly chose to back down.
Of course, shifting the blame was also necessary, “I didn’t do anything, she was poisoned by fel energy and something else, it’s her own fault for being a greedy gut who drinks anything.”
Considering Wonder Woman’s age.
Regardless of which parallel universe Wonder Woman came from, she would definitely be an old woman to Ian.
“This isn’t the Diana we know, is it?” Lois, watching Diana continuously vomit as if her insides were coming out, still didn’t let down her guard.
“Mm.”
Ian nodded.
If he wasn’t mistaken.
This Wonder Woman might be from Earth-43.
That was a parallel universe where almost all of the Justice League members were vampires. He didn’t know why this Diana from another universe would appear in his own universe to carry out an assassination.
“Where is the Diana we know?”
Lois began to worry about Wonder Woman’s safety.
However.
Her worry was only temporary.
“She’s with Dad.”
Ian honestly replied.
“?????”
Lois’s eyes widened a bit.
“No, it’s two in the morning, why is your father with Wonder Woman and doesn’t have time to save us?” Her expression became extremely suspicious—Lois wasn’t aware of The Flash’s injury; she only knew that Clark, who always appeared when she was in danger, hadn’t shown up.
Women.
Always only remembered what they wanted to remember.
“Dad ran into trouble.”
Ian quickly defended Clark.
“Hmm?”
Lois, holding the kitten, frowned and pressed.
“What kind of trouble?”
She also dismissed any bad associations, her tone carrying a hint of worry.
“That’s a question for her.”
Ian looked at the vampire Amazon warrior who was about to vomit her intestines out.
He didn’t even need to use his Super Brain.
He knew there was definitely a conspiracy behind this.
As for what conspiracy.
Ian guessed it was related to her abnormal physical quality. Although Wonder Woman was of demigod lineage, her body couldn’t possibly be so tough that she could take his heat rays to the face without her bracelets without any injury to such an exaggerated degree.
“A cat from Krypton, and a poisoned little imp… still can’t stop me from completing my mission.” The vampire Diana also obliged by lifting her pale face. The vibrant colors on her body had faded significantly, as if she had expelled the toxic substances through vomiting.
“Your Superman will become part of the ‘Glorious Plan’, just like us.” The vampire Diana slowly got up and wiped the corner of her mouth.
She did indeed seem to have recovered quite a bit.
“Fel energy couldn’t even poison you?”
Ian was quite surprised to see this.
The vampire Diana in front of him had completely recovered from the severe poisoning. Her clothes were torn, and her face was covered in dust and vomit, but her aura was still incredibly powerful.
Immense power surged within her.
Terrifying divine power flowed around her.
It was as if the entire space was warping and distorting under the influence of her divine power.
“The Dianas from thirteen parallel universes, their powers and potentials have already merged with me, you have no idea how strong I am now.”
The vampire Amazon warrior sneered, and with a raise of her hand, the sword that originally represented divinity appeared in her palm, but the flames burning at its depths were completely black.
Utterly evil.
Divine power waves surged through the alley like a tsunami.
Gravel floated in the energy field.
Ian immediately felt an extreme sense of pressure.
“Perhaps your divine power is indeed far beyond the ordinary,” Ian’s tone was arrogant, as if Reverse-Flash had possessed him, “but… you evil Wonder Woman who crawled out from who knows where, you may have stolen power that doesn’t belong to you from someone else, but this kind of power is utterly insignificant in front of a speedster.”
“Among universes, the speedster is the king.” Ian was fully embodying his identity as a speedster, he sneered, slowly putting down his legs that had been equipped with the Speed Force.
“Whoosh~”
Just then.
His legs landed back on the ground.
Ian immediately transformed into a streak of red lightning.
Swiftness.
Had always been the synonym for speedsters.
And living to fight another day was also a right of speedsters.
“?????”
The vampire Amazon warrior was preparing to face Ian, she had already mobilized the divine power within her and poured it into her sword, making it ignite with flames dozens of meters long.
However.
In just an instant.
The distance Ian had dashed out was already more than dozens of meters.
“Damn it! A coward! This is a disgrace to the Superman family!” Seeing Ian clearly running further and further away, the vampire Amazon warrior became enraged after snapping back to her senses.
She clearly hadn’t expected Ian to run off with Lois on his back.
By the time the vampire realized something was wrong.
Ian had completely disappeared from her sight. Speedsters could indeed always keep themselves in an invincible position; their running speed was absolutely top-tier in the entire universe.
Of course.
The vampire Amazon warrior, who claimed to be thirteen in one, was not to be underestimated. Even though she wasted a bit of time chasing, the vampire Amazon warrior still sprang up and caught up to Ian.
The Speed Force surged madly.
The surrounding environment blurred into giant splotches of color.
However.
Ian looked back.
The figure flying at the same high speed behind him was still persistently pursuing.
The vampire Amazon warrior’s speed was truly comparable to Superman’s.
Purely relying on her incredibly powerful base stats, a non-speedster body was comparable to a speedster, exhibiting astonishing speed and pursuing relentlessly. The strong winds she created as she flew shattered glass windows along the way.
“I don’t like this feeling!” Ian kept looking back, realizing that the vampire Amazon warrior was actually getting closer and closer to him. This was actually the powerful base stats he had imagined possessing.
“Whoosh~”
The red lightning streaked, Ian carrying his mother on his back, madly running out of the city. He knew who he should seek help from; his old father was always the greatest support.
“Can you two run faster? If that old monster behind you catches you, you’ll be in big, big trouble, do you know that old monsters like that love to eat roasted whole legs?”
Ian always used whatever methods he had. He began to relentlessly brainwash his external Speed Force calves, “This time, you guys really need to step up.”
“For your own sake… as long as you run fast enough, I’ll definitely let all of you go one day.” Ian made a promise he didn’t specify a timeframe for.
Most people would definitely not be fooled.
However, the Speed Force legs had no brains.
They seemed to believe whatever they were told. After listening to Ian’s persuasion, they really started to carry Ian with even more effort, which finally caused Wonder Woman to be slowly left behind.
“As expected, among all the worlds, my verbal prowess is still the best.” Ian had time to find his father, so he quickly dashed towards the factory he hadn’t searched before.
The Speed Force legs propelled his body, leaving a streak of red light in the outskirts.
The silhouette of the sewage plant appeared on the horizon. It could only be said that luck was on Ian’s side this time; he was very lucky not to have gone to the wrong place, and successfully saw a familiar “pixelated” silhouette appear ahead – that was this world’s Wonder Woman Diana, and an unconscious person she had rescued from the basement.
Both of them were in the outer perimeter of the factory.
Diana seemed to be trying to wake up the unconscious person.
“Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle~”
Ian still activated his handbrake.
He stopped in front of Diana, who was trying to awaken the zombie Superman.
The “halt” pose shocked Diana.
“What happened? What did you do to Barry?”
Diana’s gaze swept back and forth between Ian’s inverted hands and his legs, bound by black limbs, twisting constantly. She even dared not imagine whose legs were radiating the Speed Force.
After all, as a core member of the Justice League, Diana had heard that Superman’s son had pica.
“No time to explain, we’re being chased by a parallel universe version of you, where is my dad?” Ian asked urgently, putting down his mother and her guardian beast from his back.
“Oh! Clark!”
Mother was freed from the effects of running at Speed Force speed.
Once she regained her thinking ability, the first thing she saw was the “Superman” lying on the concrete floor, unconscious and appearing to have undergone inhumane torture.
“What did you encounter? Why is Clark in this state?” Lois, with red eyes, rushed over, hugging the zombie Superman’s head, her eyes full of grief.
However.
This grief only lasted for a few seconds.
“No, the feel is wrong, this isn’t my Clark.” Lois’s intelligence and judgment were not suppressed, and combining her previous experiences with the current situation, she immediately discerned the situation.
“A clone? Or Clark from another universe?” Mother wasn’t sure, but regardless of the situation, it didn’t stop her from throwing the zombie Superman back onto the ground.
The poor person faced the ground again, no spring blossoms, just dust on his face.
“…”
Diana watched this scene, her expression quite remarkable.
Could it be any more realistic?
She finally understood who the younger son of the Kent family took after.
“Where is my dad?”
Ian asked Diana again at this moment.
“Your dad is dealing with his clone underground, didn’t you feel the constant earthquakes?” Diana still didn’t quite understand what Ian and Lois had encountered.
However.
She was also able to sort out relevant information herself. “The parallel universe me is chasing and killing? The man just now also told me that Luthor is no longer Luthor from our universe.”
“So, are we facing an invasion from a parallel universe?” I can only say that as an experienced veteran superhero, her analysis of the situation and the current state of affairs was incredibly smooth.
As soon as the words fell.
A strong airflow fluctuation echoed through the air.
“They’re here!”
Ian already felt the powerful divine power fluctuations of the opponent.
“The world is only this big, where else can you run to?” The vampire Diana hovered in mid-air, her long black hair flowing in the wind, her pale skin reflecting a cold gleam under the moonlight.
“Counting on Superman to save you? He’s underground right now, I know… but, so what?” She looked down at Ian and this world’s Diana on the ground.
Her expression was mocking.
“There really is another me!” Seeing the woman who looked exactly like her, Wonder Woman was also extremely shocked, but she quickly regained her composure, and a strong fighting spirit flowed in her eyes.
“I don’t need Superman at all, I can handle you.” Diana also braced herself. Facing her other self, she was fearless and raised her long sword, leaping into the air with a fierce thrust.
“No!”
Ian didn’t even have time to stop her before Wonder Woman shot out like an arrow from a bow, using the signature move of 【 Barbarian 】 – a leaping downward strike – towards her other self in the sky.
Holy power flowed on the blade.
This universe’s rightful Diana’s speed was incredibly fast. In the blink of an eye, she leaped into the air, her Sword of Vulcan slicing through the night, carrying the might of thunder as it aimed directly for the vampire heroine’s neck!
Facing the attack.
The vampire heroine did not dodge or evade.
She merely sneered.
“Clang!!”
The Sword of Vulcan sliced through the air.
Carrying holy power, it struck towards the vampire heroine’s neck.
The sound of metal colliding was deafening, and sparks flew.
This strike was enough to cleave mountains, yet such a terrifying attack only left a fleeting spark on the vampire heroine’s skin.
Not a single wound! It was as if she had been given a script she wasn’t supposed to have; she offered no defense whatsoever, taking Diana’s attack head-on with her own neck!
“How is this possible!”
Diana, holding her sword which could no longer be pressed down, stared at the unharmed vampire heroine, her pupils contracting violently several times in an instant.
This was the God-Slaying Sword!
A treasure capable of killing deities!
Ares couldn’t withstand it!
Why could her other-universe self withstand it?
In an instant.
Diana felt cold sweat streaming down her forehead. The last time she had experienced such disbelief was when Superman Clark was resurrected and went on a killing spree, turning against everyone he knew.
“Nothing is impossible.”
The vampire heroine spoke indifferently.
“This is the power I possess after absorbing isotopes from other universes. To be honest, I don’t want to kill you, but I have a reason why I must do so.”
She raised her hand and grabbed the sword that was lodged in her neck.
“Hoo hoo hoo~”
Black flames seemed to pollute the divine sword.
Diana quickly let go, thus avoiding the black flames from burning her body. She raised her fist and attacked the opponent, but every blow that landed squarely on her still failed to cause any damage.
“No matter how many reasons you have, they are not an excuse to harm the innocent!” Diana tried to unleash her full power, but no matter how loudly she shouted, she couldn’t bridge the gap in strength.
“You all don’t understand what countless universes are facing. Only by absorbing all universes into myself can I gain the strength to cope, and others will also have the strength to cope.”
“There only needs to be one Justice League in the multiverse, the strongest Justice League.” The vampire heroine did not counterattack, but merely described this to Diana.
“If you can kill me, you can also take my place, but unfortunately… I am now your invincible self.” With that, the vampire heroine simply raised her fist and smashed down fiercely.
“Boom!!!”
A muffled roar erupted in the air. Diana crossed her hands to protect her chest, and her Guardian Silver Bracelets instantly activated, emitting a silver light to form a circular barrier.
However.
This barrier lasted for less than a second before it shattered under the heavy impact! The impact force was as intense as a meteor falling, sending Diana flying outwards.
Her body tumbled several times in the air.
She finally crashed heavily onto the ground.
Dust flew, bricks and stones cracked. The great heroine was reduced to digging the ground with her body, plowing a hundred-meter-long furrow before stopping at the feet of Ian and Lois.
“Cough… damn it… how can she be so strong!” Diana lay on the ground, opened her eyes, and coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood. She saw the faces of Ian and Lois appear in her field of vision.
“Because she ate over a dozen of you? The combined strength of over a dozen of you?” This was the result Ian had anticipated; he couldn’t stop the reckless members of the Justice League after all.
Hearing this.
Wonder Woman felt her chest about to shatter.
“Why didn’t you say so earlier?”
She was on the verge of tears.
“You didn’t give me time to warn you either.”
Ian was genuinely wronged.
He simply couldn’t stop Wonder Woman from rushing out just now.
“Are you alright?”
Lois asked Wonder Woman with great concern.
“Not really.”
“See, Mom, I told you it wasn’t my fault.” Ian pointed to his aunt on the ground, who was “perfectly recreating” his previous situation, and once again defended himself for being sent flying earlier.
“…”
Lois didn’t know how to respond.
“Can someone help me up?” Diana looked truly embarrassed, but fortunately, Lois was kind enough to help her up from the ground.
However.
What confused Diana was that after Lois helped her up, she noticed Lois leaning in to smell her, which made her feel inexplicably bewildered.
“What are you doing?”
Diana couldn’t help but ask.
“Smelling your perfume.”
Lois replied with a straight face.
“??????”
Diana was completely confused.
She truly didn’t understand what the Kent family was thinking. And now, the six-legged monster child from the Kent family had crawled up to the zombie Superman, and was excitedly grabbing the unconscious zombie Superman’s feet.
“What are you trying to do?” Under Diana’s gaze, Ian seemed to stand up like a person again, using his legs, which were bound with two extra legs, to stand.
“To get revenge, of course!”
Ian floated in mid-air, preventing his erratically moving Speed Force legs from carrying him around again. He adjusted his grip on Superman’s ankles to get a feel for it.
“You can’t beat that guy.” Diana stared forward, her body trembling slightly, her chest aching. Her Guardian Silver Bracelets were already emitting a mournful cry from being overloaded.
The Sword of Vulcan had also been thrown from high up by that terrifying isotope.
It was as if the opponent disliked her weapon.
“Do you still intend to resist?”
The vampire heroine slowly descended, her toes lightly touching the ground, her movements elegant and unhurried. She scanned her surroundings, her gaze falling on the three of them, a cold smile appearing on her lips.
“People from your world are as ignorant as people from other worlds.” She said slowly, “Everyone thinks they can save everything, but in the face of true power, they are nothing but ants.”
The air was filled with the scent of death.
It was as if time itself had frozen at this moment—the battle was not over, but the outcome seemed already decided? Not necessarily, after all, Ian had already grasped his most handy weapon.
Kryptonian.
This was a super-weapon of the level of an Emperor’s weapon.
“This isn’t your father.”
Lois reminded Ian.
She thought Ian hadn’t recognized him.
“It’s fine, a fake dad can still help me fight. If it were the real dad, I wouldn’t dare to use him.” As Ian’s voice fell, he landed again, and with the guidance of his Speed Force legs, he charged towards the vampire heroine. He tightly gripped the unconscious “zombie Superman” with both hands, holding it like a giant war hammer.
“Feel the indestructible head of a Kryptonian!”
Ian delivered a passionate speech.
It wasn’t just Lois and Diana who were struck by lightning seeing this scene.
Even the vampire heroine was stunned.
“What kind of fighting style is this?” In disbelief, her dynamic vision caught up as Ian rushed in front of her, swinging the Kryptonian in his hand at her.
“Bang!”
A loud noise.
The zombie Superman’s body slammed heavily into the vampire heroine’s chest. The impact force was so strong that she was sent flying backward, crashing through a large water tower before falling to the ground.
It turned out.
Although the vampire heroine’s body was very tough.
The reputation of Kryptonians was not tarnished because of this.
They.
Were as always, a T0-level steel body.
“Take this! Fake Dad’s Meteor Hammer from the Heavens!!” Ian gave the vampire heroine no chance to breathe. With the boost from the external Speed Force legs, his closing speed was incredibly fast.
He raised the zombie Superman overhead and smashed it down again like a flail! As a result, the vampire heroine was directly flattened to the ground, like a mole being hit in a game.
“No! Your strength can’t be this great! This is… divine power!” The vampire heroine’s head collided continuously with the zombie Superman’s head.
The tables had turned.
Ian gave the guy no opportunities.
He hammered the vampire heroine until she was screaming.
Her screams alerted observers watching from afar.
“Damn it! How do you possess such high-level divine power!” The vampire heroine finally realized something was wrong; Ian’s power alone should not have been enough to shake her defenses.
Even holding a powerful weapon… no, a powerful Kryptonian shouldn’t have made her suffer this much. The reason for this was something the vampire heroine realized through repeated intense pain.
It was divine power!
The opponent had infused divine power into the “hammer”!
The vampire heroine roared, trying to stabilize herself, but each time she was hit by the “zombie Superman,” she felt a scorching power penetrate her skin.
Burning her soul.
This was not an ordinary physical strike.
This was an impact of divine power.
It could cause a stun effect.
The ground was smashed into a deep pit.
The entire factory was shaking, the ceiling collapsed, steel bars snapped, dust flew everywhere. The vampire heroine clutched her head, letting out muffled groans of pain.
She also attempted to use her bracelets for defense.
However.
Those bracelets imbued with divine power were instantly crushed by Ian’s divine power.
“Are you a descendant of the gods?!”
The vampire heroine was greatly alarmed; this divine power was more advanced than she had anticipated.
“Nonsense, the divine power of Lord Evil God belongs to me! It’s evil magic power!” Ian found the fake dad quite handy, but he still missed Aunt Kara the most.
Perhaps this was the white moonlight everyone couldn’t forget?
“Enough!”
Her roar did not make Ian stop; instead, it made Ian even more excited—mainly because Ian had discovered a truth, a truth that normally no one could discover.
He finally discovered why Kryptonians had much lower magic resistance than physical resistance!
It turned out that Kryptonians’ bodies possessed extreme magical conductivity! At least in Ian’s hands, he felt this magical conductivity reached an “absolutely stunning” level!
“You can’t kill me!” The vampire Diana roared through gritted teeth. Although she was beaten into a sorry state, there were still no obvious wounds on her.
The vampire heroine was about to counterattack.
“Really? I don’t believe it.”
But Ian had already rapidly approached, the “zombie Superman” in his hands transforming into continuous attacks, each smashing blow carrying scorching divine power fluctuations that pushed her back step by step.
Her body was tough.
Her reaction speed was fast.
But the vampire heroine felt she couldn’t hold on much longer—the opponent’s cheats were truly cheats, relying entirely on others for battles.
It was the Speedster’s legs again.
And the Kryptonian’s head.
Plus, divine power obtained from some unknown source.
What kind of chaotic combination was this?
“I said enough! You frail and despicable brat!”
The vampire heroine could no longer stand it. Diana hadn’t unleashed her full power, but she had. In a moment of immense humiliation, she endured Ian’s attack and launched a counterattack.
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
This woman, even with her face slapped by Ian.
Still seized the opportunity to throw a punch.
Directly piercing Ian’s chest with one punch!
【 Berserker Experience +29】
Ian didn’t even think about dodging.
This was his usual strategy against opponents.
Of course.
Recently, this strategy hasn’t been as effective and lacks sustainability.
The reason is also very simple.
“Rumble!”
Just as the vampire huntress pierced Ian’s chest, the same treatment Reverse-Flash had enjoyed reappeared—divine power leaked out, exploding like a volcanic eruption.
The vampire Diana’s right hand pierced Ian’s chest, but this action, like stabbing into the sun’s core, instantly carbonized her hand, and terrifying energy erupted.
Instantly burning the vampire huntress’s face.
“No!”
The vampire huntress screamed continuously.
She was hit by the overflowing divine power and sent flying backward, tracing a parabolic arc in the air with black smoke trailing, finally crashing heavily onto the ground, collapsing an entire empty water tower!
At this moment.
It wasn’t just the vampire huntress who felt that terrifying divine power; even the world’s true Wonder Woman Diana clearly felt some of the information contained within Ian’s divine power.
“How is this possible! Lois! Your son has the makings of a King of Gods!?” Diana was dumbfounded, her eyes wide, staring at the boy holding the zombie Superman in front of her with shock.
Suddenly.
She felt a gaze from the side watching her.
“I was just about to ask you the same thing. Why does our youngest son have divine power…” Lois, watching the battle, asked with a suspicious tone.
“…”
Wonder Woman, who was initially extremely shocked, immediately fell silent.
“Huh?” Diana had been eager to gossip, but she never expected the gossip to turn towards her. As she carefully considered the situation, her expression became increasingly remarkable.
Who in the Justice League has divine power?
On Earth.
How many women possess divine power?
“No! This has nothing to do with me! I’m just a demigod!” Diana frantically explained, “A demigod is just a demigod; it’s impossible to give birth to something like this…”
She seemed to think for a long time.
And couldn’t find a suitable adjective.
“A King of Gods.”
Lois reminded her.
“Yes, exactly, a King of Gods like that.”
Diana quickly echoed Lois’s words—she felt her parallel universe counterpart was truly miserable, and was even more confused about where Clark had gotten Ian from.
As the two women watched and discussed.
“What the hell are you!”
The same confusion also welled up in the vampire huntress’s heart.
Her statement was even more direct.
She couldn’t help it; the vampire huntress was truly at her wit’s end. She got up from the ground, her face hadn’t even recovered, yet she found Ian’s recovery speed was even faster than hers, a vampire.
“I crushed your heart!”
In this situation, she was completely bewildered.
“My heart gets crushed often; it’s not a big problem.” Ian’s response completely silenced the vampire huntress. She didn’t understand what was going on with the Superman family in this universe.
“You’re not Kryptonian… you’re not Clark’s child.”
At this moment, the vampire huntress seemed to realize something.
However.
Her sudden realization enraged Ian.
“Nonsense! My name is Ian Kent, and I am the Son of Superman!”
Saying this.
Ian, having healed himself, charged forward again, holding the zombie Superman.
He was imposing.
He looked like he could chase the vampire huntress for three days and three nights.
“Don’t come near me!”
The vampire huntress was now panicked.
She realized she seemed to have provoked something dirty. The damned child’s strength didn’t seem powerful, but he had a bunch of external biological weapons, and she also knew she couldn’t bite him.
She couldn’t kill him.
The divine power and potent poison in this guy’s body were too overwhelming!
He had built-in high-level reflect damage!
How could she fight?
With her strength far surpassing Ian’s, the vampire huntress felt extremely frustrated. Facing the approaching boy, she quickly flew into the sky, like fleeing for her life, straight towards the clouds.
“Hmm? Who’s the coward now?”
Ian had an unforgiving personality.
He slung the zombie Superman, which was less useful than a cousin aunt, across his back like a sword, then used his Speed Force external legs to launch himself, combined with a teleportation at the limit of his vision, heading straight up.
With the combination of multiple skills.
Ian firmly grasped the fleeing vampire huntress.
“Don’t run! I’m about to have dinner!”
Ian stuck to the vampire huntress’s back like an octopus.
“What are you doing!”
The vampire huntress kicked and struggled, even twisting Ian’s neck, but still couldn’t make Ian let go. She was thus tightly entangled by Ian in the sky, flying everywhere.
【 Berserker Experience +19】
【 Berserker Experience +21】
【 Berserker Experience +18】
…
“Let go! If you don’t go save your father now, your father will be gone!” The vampire huntress was truly scared now. Even if Ian dropped his weapon, she didn’t want to continue entangled with him.
“What do you mean? Speak clearly, and I’ll consider letting go.” Ian, clinging tightly to the vampire huntress’s back, felt his heart tighten upon hearing this.
The vampire huntress wasn’t fooled.
“Choose: chase me, or go save your father.”
She directly gave the choice with a cold laugh.
“You still don’t know who’s in charge, do you.”
Just as Ian was about to pierce his own body, unleash the divine power within him, and teach this vampire a lesson, letting this vampire know that Master Ian could even kill himself when he got serious.
“Zzzzzz~!”
The zombie Superman propped on Ian’s back suddenly roared and opened its eyes.
A terrifying Fel Energy beam shot out from its eyes, passing through its ear and precisely hitting the vampire huntress’s head!
“BOOM!!!”
Blood and unknown substances instantly exploded, splattering all over Ian’s face. The vampire huntress’s head, as if hit by a cannonball, instantly burst into countless fragments.
Blood and white matter scattered everywhere.
“???????”
Everything happened too fast.
Ian didn’t even have time to react. The decapitated vampire’s body suddenly spasmed and, like a kite with a broken string, plunged from high in the air towards the ground with him.
The ground shattered.
A large pit was directly smashed open.
【 Berserker Experience Points +7】
【 Berserker Experience Points +8】
【 Berserker Experience Points +8】
…
Ian ignored his own injuries and didn’t have time to retrieve the “absolute best hammer” that had detached from his back and landed some distance away. He directly deactivated his Speed Force external legs.
He used his own legs to rush to the headless corpse.
“Don’t die! There are thirty seconds left! Thirty seconds!” Ian, seeing how casually the vampire huntress died, couldn’t help but gain a new understanding of the absurdity of reality.
“System! Quick, it’s still warm! Maybe it can still be used!” Ian examined the neck of the corpse, thoroughly burned by Fel Energy. He wanted to perform artificial respiration but couldn’t find the vampire’s trachea.
And there were Fel Energy bubbles everywhere.
It was quite disgusting.
Fortunately, the system’s countdown finally reached its end.
【You have met one of the conditions to transfer to Entropy Lord, please quickly find any planetary metal ore and consume it!】
As the countdown ended.
Ian also received the system prompt.
He searched around in the pit, then grabbed a stone and shoved it into his mouth—this scene was witnessed by Diana, who had come to the pit to check, protecting Lois.
A boy.
Holding a headless corpse.
Then.
He was eating a stone?
Diana was dumbfounded.
“Ian… has a bit of pica.” Lois gave a forced smile, explaining with the diagnosis given by the doctor, completely omitting the more serious diagnosis of mental illness.
“I understand. At least he’s not eating people, right?” Diana nodded, stating she already knew about this situation but was surprised that Ian would casually eat things regardless of the occasion.
“Mm.”
Lois nodded helplessly.
However.
“We can confirm he hasn’t eaten people, right?”
It wasn’t surprising that Diana couldn’t help but press further.
It was mainly because she saw Ian with two legs tucked under his armpits, staring at “her” corpse with a strange look, which naturally made her overthink.
Is Barry Allen really still alive?
Or rather.
Is he really unharmed?
“Yes, he doesn’t eat people.”
Lois sighed helplessly.
Still believing that Ian had basic moral boundaries.
This is mother’s love.
Meanwhile.
Ian, not caring if he was misunderstood, heard the long-awaited system prompt in his ear after eating the ore, successfully acquiring his third Supernatural Profession.
【Ding!】
【Transfer successful!】
【Profession: Entropy Lord acquired!】
【Entropy Lord: When the cape ripples through spacetime, and the scepter shatters dimensional barriers, the entire world will, in the elegy of entropy, become a footnote to its power!】
【Base template loaded!】
【Talent Skill acquired—Life Feeding.】
【Professional Skill Tree unlocked!】
At the moment this new profession awakened.
Ian’s four-dimensional attributes also received new enhancements.
【Strength: 76—113】
【Constitution: 90—150】
【Intelligence: 5.1—11.0】
【Spirit: 39—50】
As expected of a profession awakening that took so long.
In a game, this would at least be a red Legendary profession, the kind that’s unplayable without microtransactions, but upon successfully transferring, it directly brought Ian’s Strength and Constitution into the triple digits.
Ian could clearly feel the tremor of every muscle fiber.
As if immense power was surging within his body.
His heartbeat became slow and deep, like the heart of an ancient behemoth slowly beating in his chest, each pulse propelling much more powerful life energy through him than before.
“My thinking has become much faster.”
Ian not only felt the obvious improvement in his basic physical quality but, crucially, his Intelligence had also leaped forward! This is an important attribute that affects neural reaction speed.
To fight Speedsters.
This attribute is what’s needed most.
Utilizing the legs of Time Wraiths, who are Speedsters, actually requires strong neural reaction speed and perceptual abilities. Currently, Ian can clearly sense the wind flowing from different directions around him.
This is a wonderful experience.
Of course.
There are even more wonderful things.
“This feeling… is a new talent skill!” It’s not just an enhancement of physical quality; Ian feels a strange tremor spreading from the depths of his chest.
It’s as if some unknown “organ” has quietly grown within him.
They are formless and intangible, yet truly exist.
He opened his mouth.
As if driven by instinct, he took a slight breath.
A barely perceptible ripple appeared in the air.
The warm vampire heroine corpse on the ground twitched a few times. A nearly undetectable life essence was drawn out, flowing down his esophagus and into his body.
The sensation was as natural as drinking water.
【Entropy Annihilation Lord Experience Points+7】
Whether the corpse is warm or not is not important.
Ian felt quite warm in his stomach.
【Life Feeding: Your existence is the pause of entropy increase. As an avatar between order and chaos in the universe, the Entropy Annihilation Lord is born with the instinct to absorb the energy of all things.
Whether it is a star or those great existences… everything that exists 「energy」 can be perceived and devoured by you. All things in the world are nutrients to help you grow endlessly.
When you are in a Hunger State, your Sanity Value will decrease by thirty percent, and when you are in a Satiated State, all your Attributes will gain a fifty percent boost.】
I must say.
As a profession unlocked by Galactus, this 【Entropy Annihilation Lord】 truly embodies the basic characteristics of Star Eater, and the talent abilities it brings make Ian feel it’s heaven-defying.
Even if he were to eat thin air.
Ian felt he could gain experience points.
【Entropy Annihilation Lord Experience Points+1】
Ian even gnawed on a few dozen stones again, and he gained experience points again. What an amazing passive ability! This is much more convenient than searching for potions all over the world!
【Entropy Annihilation Lord Experience Points+1】
【Entropy Annihilation Lord Experience Points+1】
After gnawing on a hundred more stones.
Under the watchful eyes of his Mother and Wonder Woman.
Ian enjoyed eating and leveled up directly.
【Entropy Annihilation Lord LV2〔0/20〕】
【Strength: 113—130】
【Constitution: 150—170】
【Intelligence: 11—13.0】
【Spirit: 50—58】
Although the subsequent upgrade gains are not as significant as when first acquiring the profession, it is still a more powerful boost than the 【Berserker】. Ian is increasingly eager to find the remaining pieces of the 【Berserker】 profession.
He believes they are there.
Hidden somewhere in the Marvel Universe.
“That’s not right. Why did such a powerful heroine only give me a little experience points?” Ian started eating stones again and found that after level two, eating ordinary stones yielded almost no benefit.
Searching the ground for gravel.
Eating it all.
He only gained 5 experience points.
“Uh, my stomach is already full.” Ian tried to absorb stones directly with his mouth from a distance, but it was useless. The energy within the stones was in their very form of existence.
As for the vampire heroine corpse that had begun to cool down.
【Entropy Annihilation Lord Experience Points+6】
This headless corpse only provided a tiny bit more experience points.
It directly turned into dust.
It seemed all the energy in its body had been absorbed – this was clearly not right, as such a powerful super life form must have an immense amount of energy within it, but it was nowhere to be found.
Ian was very confused.
And at this moment.
“Hiss~”
Suddenly.
Diana, who was persuading Lois to take Ian to see a psychiatrist more often, suddenly knelt on the ground. Her whole body trembled as if a scorching flame was surging through her veins.
“What’s wrong?”
Lois rushed to show concern.
Wonder Woman raised her trembling hand to stop Lois from touching her. Her skin flushed with abnormal redness, and solid light erupted from the seams of her War God armor.
That is divine power.
Foreign divine power was injecting into her body with unstoppable force!
“Ughh—”
Diana arched her back in pain, her Lasso of Truth automatically unfastened, dancing in the air like a glowing golden serpent. Ancient runes, never seen before, appeared on each segment of the chain.
Those symbols were blindingly bright, as if scorched by high temperatures. Her muscle definition became more distinct under the surge of divine power, and even her hair began to emit fine golden sparks.
“What is going on?!”
Diana tried to suppress the rampant power within her.
“Damn it, my missing energy found it! It went into Auntie Diana!” Ian flipped and leaped onto the deep pit, casually tossing aside the zombie Superman, who he couldn’t absorb energy from.
This served as a reminder.
It immediately made Diana recall the information the vampire heroine had mentioned earlier.
“Power transfer after the death of an isotope?” Diana stood up, panting, her face pale, but her life force grew more vigorous. She just hadn’t adapted to the surging power yet.
“Not just power, but potential? When an isotope dies, its power and potential are distributed to all other surviving identical individuals in other universes?” Diana deduced some information. The possibilities that belonged to other universe Dianas were now flooding her bloodline like a torrent.
“Why is this happening?”
Diana did not feel happy about the increase in her strength.
Instead, she had a bad premonition.
Or rather, an intuition that was not wrong. As a veteran member of the Justice League, she knew that acquiring power always came with an extraordinary price.
Although she hadn’t fully grasped the principle of strengthening before a major battle, Diana had vaguely touched its threshold and didn’t think this was a good thing.
The deceased self had also mentioned that the universes were facing some kind of crisis… Thinking of this, Diana’s inner anxiety grew.
The facts proved that her anxiety might just be a reflection of her sixth sense.
“Multiverse… this is its… self-rescue mechanism.”
A hoarse and stuttering voice suddenly interrupted the conversation. The zombie Superman, who had been thrown aside, actually opened his eyes, his pupils becoming hazy and indistinct.
However, his soul seemed to still be struggling.
“What do you mean?”
Diana quickly pressed for more information.
“Tell Clark to stop killing… he is killing, the basement… can’t hold on, I, already.” The zombie Superman slumped to the ground, touching his forehead.
His speech was disordered.
But the meaning was conveyed quite clearly.
Something was wriggling beneath his gray-white skin.
“What does Clark killing the clone have to do with you?” Diana frowned, suppressing the rampant power within her while covering Ian’s mouth as he constantly inhaled near her.
“Luthor. Is copying. The universe’s. Miracle with me!” The zombie Superman’s jaw suddenly twitched unnaturally, and the wriggling beneath his skin intensified.
“Ahhhh!!”
Without any warning, the zombie Superman threw his head back and let out a non-human roar. Two thick green beams erupted from his eyes, piercing straight through the clouds above.
The dark clouds were blasted apart.
He illuminated the night sky as if it were a green daylight.
The entire city trembled at this moment.
“He’s receiving the power of those clones!” Ian immediately realized something was wrong and, after attempting to absorb energy himself, rushed towards the shaking entrance of the basement.
The zombie Superman’s change.
Was clearly caused by Clark’s elimination of the clones.
“No time! Clark… your Clark… he…” Before the zombie Superman could finish speaking, his body began to crack inch by inch.
Spiderweb-like cracks appeared on his skin.
Countless green energies surged within them.
And were then restrained within his powerful Kryptonian body.
“He can’t handle this power transfer!” Diana wanted to go forward and help, but even with her boosted divine power, she couldn’t help the zombie Superman pacify the rapidly increasing energy within him.
“Back off!”
Diana quickly pulled Lois away.
“Is this man going to explode?” Lois was also startled. She didn’t think the Clark from another universe was a bad person, so she still wanted to help him.
“If only it were that simple!”
Diana picked up her long sword.
She had already sensed that something was wrong.
“Ahhhh!!”
The zombie Superman continued to let out pained roars. His body began to swell dramatically, and countless glowing fissures opened on his skin, but what surged within was not blood.
It was a green energy fluid.
Simultaneously.
“Old Man! Hurry!”
Ian emerged from the basement at this moment, carrying a bloodied Old Man. The Old Man was not injured, and in Ian’s hand were two newly acquired clone corpses.
The energy in these corpses had already been completely transferred.
However.
It didn’t prevent Ian from using them as handy weapons.
“This is…”
Clark, more than Diana, made a distinction. Seeing the zombie Superman gradually changing, his slightly tired spirit was immediately awakened as if startled.
“Doomsday!”
Without another word, Old Man grabbed Ian and Lois and rushed into the distance.
The night was like green ink.
The wind howled.
When Clark threw his family to a safe location and returned, he caught Diana, who had been thrown back. Even Diana, who had inherited some power from her isotope, was covered in wounds.
It couldn’t be helped.
After all, her opponent was the symbol of ultimate fear for Kryptonians. Doomsday originated from the destroyed Krypton and was, along with Parademons, known as the two most powerful biological weapons in the universe.
And at this moment.
The zombie Superman, who had been rescued earlier, was clearly mutating towards Doomsday. The terrifying energy and inhuman torment seemed to have triggered a forbidden gene within the Kryptonian.
Zombie Superman.
He—no, perhaps he should be called “it” now—stood hunched over in an open area of the sewage plant. His blue uniform had been completely torn apart by flesh that grew like cancer cells, revealing gray-green skin underneath. The muscles that once reassured countless people had now contorted into terrifying lumps.
“Clark, what should we do? Where is Bruce?” Diana, in one round of combat, had triggered deep-seated psychological trauma.
“Kill me! Quickly!”
The zombie Superman roared at the sky, and a destructive fel energy storm swept out, collapsing buildings and tearing the sky apart.
His body was undergoing visible mutations at an incredibly rapid pace. His arms twitched and swelled convulsively, and his bones made a bone-grinding “crackling” sound. The commotion caused the entire outskirts to tremble.
“Kill—Me!”
With a roar.
Many of the zombie Superman’s bones protruded outwards madly, his skin began to form an obsidian-like shell, and a core of dark energy pulsed in his chest—the curse of Doomsday within his Kryptonian genes was devouring him.
Perhaps more than that.
Unbeknownst to anyone.
A more ancient and evil power was resurrecting through the corpse.
