329. The Show Begins.


    <strong>Fourth World, Apokolips.</strong>


    This is the remnant of the Old God era and one of the birthces of the New Gods.


    "Lord Darkseid."


    Sitting on the Mobius Chair, Batman looked at Darkseid withplete reverence, reporting in a calm voice.


    "Reports show that most of the members of the Seven Lantern Corps have perished. My previous n was sessful. By spreading the seeds of abnormal emotions, the power of the rings was not a threat. They broke down from within."


    At this point, Batman no longer resembled a human in any way. Although he still maintained his original human appearance, his humanity and emotions had beenpletely erased. He now functioned like a programmed machine, mechanically carrying out his tasks.


    "Very good."


    Standing before Batman, Darkseid, with his hands behind his back, nodded slightly. After losing many of his old subordinates, he found Batman increasingly pleasing to the eye.


    Having such a clever opponent had once given Darkseid headaches. But now, ever since brainwashing Batman and making him his strategist, Darkseid had managed to eliminate the Seven Lantern Corps in just over a year. This impressive achievement was enough to make Darkseid see Batman in a new light.


    "You''ve done well. Next, I will personally go and bring Oa into my empire. Those people have disrupted many of my ns for far too long."


    Upon hearing this, Batman bowed his head slightly and respectfully said, "It will be their honor to be destroyed by you, my esteemed master. Believe me, after the main forces have been wiped out, the remaining resistance on Oa will pose no problem."


    "Hmm. Until I return, you will be in charge of Apokolips."


    Darkseid''s lips curled into a slight smile. It had been a long time since he had enjoyed the thrill of war. Destroying the headquarters of the Green Lantern Corps this time would be particrly satisfying. He then turned his head.


    "Remember, do not disturb me."


    Only after hearing Darkseid''s words did Batman lift his head, nodding slightly before solemnly replying, "As you wish, master."


    As Batman''s words fell, a Boom Tube appeared in front of Darkseid. Amidst a blinding light, Darkseid''s figure slowly disappeared.


    <strong>At the same time, on Earth…</strong>


    "The Sleeper just sent word. Darkseid has left Apokolips. This is our chance!"


    Lois Lane was staring intently at herputer screen. As soon as she received the message from the informant who called themselves ''The Sleeper,'' she immediately opened the brief message, and sure enough, it was the signal to go to war.


    "I''ve already sent Batwing and Lady Shiva to gather the remaining people. The rally point is set at Gotham''s port. After thest big sweep, it''s the safest ce left. Once we blow up Apokolips, we can retreat from this world at any time," Dick Grayson said.


    Batwing, though barely considered a member of the Bat-family, was also one of the few surviving heroes. In the original storyline, he, Barbara, and Kate attacked one of Apokolips'' engines but were shot down and killed by Doomsday-type Parademons. The two Batwomen didn''tst long either.


    It could be said that unless they faced targeted assassination or an unavoidable encounter, the Bat-family was undoubtedly the most resilient group in the Justice League. Although they were all ordinary humans, Batman''s training always seemed to allow them to survive apocalyptic crises.


    The Apokolips War made this clear. While most of the heroes had been wiped out, the Bat-family still managed to almost field a full team. The idea that "the Bat-family never gets wiped out" wasn''t just a joke.


    "Wait, Gotham''s port?" Kara was stunned for a moment, unable to help but speak up. "If I''m not mistaken, aren''t there at least three Parademon nests near Gotham?"


    "Don''t worry, those Parademons will be dealt with by Conner and Steel," Damian said with a smile.


    Superboy, Conner, is a clone of both rk and Lex Luthor, carrying powerful Kryptonian genes. At full power, hisbat abilities aren''t far behind Kara''s. Steel, on the other hand, is the Justice League''s weapons expert and has considerablebat power as well. However, in this world, Conner is still rtively new, and Steel isn''t at his peak either. In the movie, they both perished after following Shazam to destroy an engine.


    "And the assassins from the League of Assassins are also protecting the civilians. They''ll be fine. Besides, once we fire the first shots here, all the Parademons will rush to defend the Apokolips engine."


    "To be honest, I still feel like something about this n isn''t reliable," Ashley muttered, casting a nce at Alex.


    But Alex didn''t notice her look, seeming lost in thought at that moment. Seeing Alex remain silent, Kara spoke up. "This is the only n, isn''t it? We have just one chance. If we can''t stop Darkseid here, even the Wastnd Universe will be in danger."


    "Yes, it''s our only shot," Lois nodded heavily, then looked at Alex with anticipation. "Mr. Alex, it''s your time to shine."


    "What? Oh, sorry, I was… a bit distracted." Alex rubbed his eyes, a rxed smile forming on his face.


    "What''s up with you? You look oddly happy," Kara noticed Alex''s barely restrained grin and asked in confusion.


    "Oh, it''s nothing, just thinking about something pleasant… but it''s not important."


    Through his connection with the Eye of Omniscience, Alex had already seen that Constantine''s n was going smoothly. Now, they couldn''t afford to fail on their end either.


    "Well then, it''s time to sound the charge. Thanks to Constantine for offering his ''House of Mystery,'' otherwise I wouldn''t be able to unleash such powerful magic."


    The House of Mystery is a supernatural house, somewhat simr to the TARDIS from <strong>Doctor Who</strong>. It can appear anywhere in the world ording to Constantine''s will, and it holds immense magical energy.


    In a sense, calling it a pocket-sized magical dimension wouldn''t be far from the truth.


    In the movie, this house was driven by ck Orchid to crash into one of Apokolips'' engines, which was a bit of an underuse. If this thing were in the hands of someone truly capable, its potential would be immense.


    If before, Alex''s magical ability was limited to "raising Asgard from t ground," now, with the House of Mystery as his power source, the magic he could release could only be described as absurdly powerful.


    "Honestly, Alex, I''m still curious how you n to attack all three Apokolips engines at once," rk asked, both curious and a bit doubtful.


    "Don''t worry, I''ve got some special help."


    Alex''s lips curled into a smile, and then he closed his eyes. In the next moment, his perspective detached from his physical body and began rapidly rising.


    Everything on the ground grew further away from Alex. The figures of Lois, Kara, and the others quickly shrank. As his perspective rose, clouds asionally swept across his vision.


    When Alex reopened his ''eyes,'' his viewpoint was now outside Earth.


    "The stage is set…"


    Widening his field of view, Alex quickly located the three Apokolips engines that had been imnted in different locations across the.


    "The show begins~"
