239. The Transmission Ray.
"Injecting Kryptonian gic cells into biological weapons, is that even possible?!"
Kara, who had personally faced an entire Kryptonian army, was utterly shocked. She hadn''t even truly fought those Kryptonian soldiers back then; she had merely followed Alex''s n to destroy the Genesis Engine after making a brief appearance.
But still, this didn''t change Kara''s understanding of the terrifying power of the Kryptonian army. On Earth, a fragile, Kryptonians were overwhelmingly powerful. Bathed in the yellow sun, it was nearly impossible for Kryptonians to die in such a star system.
If an entire army were to invade Earth, Kara couldn''t imagine the despair Earth''s heroes would face, especially with her cousin Kal missing.
"I also thought it was impossible, but reality says otherwise. It happened so quickly that the entire world descended into chaos. The rm in the Quiver was ring, and by the time Oliver and I arrived, Star City had already fallen."
ck Canary took a deep breath, raising her hand to cover her forehead. "We did our best, but we were up against an unbeatable enemy. To give me a chance to seek reinforcements, Oliver used Kryptonite arrows to kill and distract most of the Parademons, but…"
With a soft sigh, ck Canary continued, helplessly, "I contacted the Teen Titans and most of the remaining heroes on Earth, but I got nothing—no response at all. I had to prepare for the worst."
As she quietly listened to ck Canary''s story, Kara felt suffocated. She found it hard to understand the mindset of a human facing countless unbeatable foes. So, she silently took ck Canary''s hand, offering her unspokenfort.
After a moment of silence, Kara finally broke it and asked, "So, how did youe to this world? Did you find a corresponding teleportation array or a dimensional rift?"
"No." Without hesitation, ck Canary shook her head. "There was no such thing as a portal. I don''t know how Jason crossed over, but I assume it was simr to my experience—I died."
"You—you died?"
"Yes, Kara, you heard me right. I died. The Quiver was breached, and I tried my best to protect some civilians as they evacuated. My voice is pretty loud, so it drew most of the Parademons away. You understand."
ck Canary downed the rest of her drink, sighing softly. "Thest thing I saw was being surrounded by countless Parademons. One of them had glowing red eyes, which then shot out a blinding heat vision... and after that, I ended up in this universe. I don''t know if..."
"You don''t know if you were hit by a transmission ray?"
Suddenly, a lighthearted male voice sounded beside them.
In an instant, both Kara and ck Canary tensed up, ready to attack. After all, this was Hydra territory, and they were on high alert all the time. What surprised them was that someone had managed to approach them without being noticed, despite their vignce.
ck Canary immediately braced herself, her muscles coiled with energy, ready to toss the person across the room if he made any sudden moves. However, Kara, who had initially been startled, rolled her eyes once she recognized the familiar voice.
"You realize how reckless that was, right? We''re on enemy territory, always at risk of being exposed, and you just waltz in using magic. What if there''s a magic detection system here?"
Kara already knew who this man was—none other than Alex.
"Sorry, sorry, my bad. But don''t underestimate me—no magic detection system here is advanced enough to pick up on my magic. Have you ever seen a mantis catch a tiger?" Alex grinned and pulled up a chair, sitting down casually. With a flick of his finger, Kara''s ss split into two, and an identical one appeared.
Alex lifted the ss toward ck Canary, smiling as he introduced himself, "Dinah Laurel Lance, it''s a pleasure to meet you. I''m Alex, code name Raven."
"H-hi," ck Canary responded, almost reflexively clinking her ss with his.
Seeing this, Alex turned to Kara and shrugged, "Now you know why she was so tense—she was really looking forward to meeting me."
"How long have you been eavesdropping?" Kara yfully pped Alex''s shoulder.
"Since the ''Hydra toll fee'' part. Don''t worry, I''ve already safely escorted Melissa and Ashley to their designated location to meet up with Barton." Alex exined, which reassured them about Ashley and the others.
As Alex nonchntly sipped his drink, ck Canary quicklyposed herself, realizing why Alex hade.
Since Alex was already here, and had also brought Ashley and the others with him, he could''ve easily led them all out together. The fact that he hade all this way to speak with them meant he had something private to discuss.
"You mentioned something about a transmission ray earlier—what did you mean?" ck Canary asked, curious.
"Eh, it''s just a reference to something rted to Batman, nothing serious. But let''s not dwell on that. What I want to know is, are you certain that only you and Jason Todd crossed over into this universe?" Alex asked in return.
"Honestly, I can''t be sure. Before now, I didn''t even know Jason Todd, the Red Hood, hade here. If it weren''t for Red Skull''s broadcast on TV, I would''ve had no idea."
"Hmm…" Alex nodded thoughtfully, taking another sip of his drink.
"You suspect that more than just Jason and I crossed into this universe—that other heroes might have died and ended up here as well?" ck Canary blurted out, her eyes lighting up with a faint glimmer of hope.
Alex, however, merely shook his head. "I understand what you''re thinking, but it''s just a theory. The likelihood of Green Arrow or the Titans arriving here is slim. If they had, there would''ve been some trace by now."
He paused, then added, "Don''t forget how long you''ve been in this universe."
At his words, the glimmer in ck Canary''s eyes dimmed. She sighed softly, muttering, "It''s... been over three years now."
