Basil ignored the fact that his Fortress of Solitude was not only cooler in appearance than the Superman of this world, but also functioned like a technologically advanced wish-granting machine, capable of granting any ordinary person's wish.

He just really wanted to teach Joe Al a lesson.

Joe Al had prepared too much trouble and too many so-called trials for him.

Various Kryptonian gadgets fell into other people's hands and were used to scam him.

The seemingly ordinary octagonal key of the spaceship can banish Clark to a parallel world where Superman has not yet arrived on Earth.

The compass that took them back in time was almost used by Blackia to kill Clark when he was still an infant.

He left behind the Chosen One Prophecy on Earth, spreading the message that Clark would arrive on Earth, which led to the emergence of the Truth Organization and the Luthor family, Superman's lifelong enemies and the source of the disaster.

The fortress left for Clark also contained various hidden doors, one of which, in the original timeline, was the Control Sphere, which ended up in the hands of the corrupted Luthor.

Finally, the Fortress of Solitude was temporarily destroyed, transforming into a Crystal form composed of the original three Philosopher's Stones.

If he were just Clark.

This will be a huge problem.

Even though he wasn't just Clark, clearing out these so-called trials took a lot of his energy.

In terms of messing with his son, Jor-El's talent can be compared to Batman's talent in scientific research.

Basil's gaze scrutinized the newly produced instrument in the bat cave. "Impressive, Bruce Ron."

"Even with the pressure from my unknown factor, and with Cyborg's cooperation, the engine was converted to Speed Force drive in just a few minutes, and the aircraft was optimized."

"Where does this kind of charlatan-like drive and scientific research come from Reed Richards? The Joker."

"There is no trace of Barbatos on Bruce Ron," Death said.

"I can tell," Basil said. "That's why I'm surprised. I'm starting to wonder how Darkseid could possibly go toe-to-toe with the charlatan Batman."

Without further delay, his location instantly changed, and he appeared in front of the Steppenwolf.

Diana, Zod, and then death followed.

Next came the flying machine connected to the Speed Force, Spark everywhere.

Finally, Superman changed his clothes at the Kryptonian Heilan Home store.

Basil's existence is purely a change of coordinates, not even a spatial jump; he simply re-exists within this dome.

Death, like Basil, is omnipresent and has reappeared around Basil.

Diana transformed into lightning, using her connection with Basil as a guide, and infusing the power she consumed with the thoughts that appeared beside Basil.

Zod manipulates space with his mind.

Batman and his crew used the Speed Force to instantly bypass all obstacles and crush a large number of Parademons when they materialized.

Only Superman is the most down-to-earth, descending from the sky with a thunderous crash as the dome shatters, landing in a classic superhero style that would earn a thumbs-up from Homelander saw it.

If the field of vision is raised.

That was the crimson demon egg lying on its side on the Dadi, shattered by a meteor that was the god of the mortal realm, who had been basking in the sunlight on the orbital line just a second before.

"Kryptonian." Steppenwolf noticed Superman immediately.

Instead of appearing as Kryptonian, Basil is no longer the red dragon incarnation that exudes a massive presence.

And Zod, with just his willpower, restrained the Mother Box in his hand, preventing it from getting close to the other two Mother Box that were attracting it.

"Two Kryptonian?" Steppenwolf then fixed his gaze on Zod, his pupils flashing coldly, his fur standing on end. "The Mother Box!"

"Arrogant and impolite."

Another male voice, which even he found extremely pleasant to hear, suddenly appeared.

However, by the time those words reached his mind, he had already lost all sensation of his body below the neck.

His head rolled off.

"They are three Kryptonian."

The person who made that voice crouched down and looked directly into his eyes.

"Don't worry, you will live. You will return to Apokolips alive."

How can you live with just a brain?

Steppenwolf was puzzled, but he was soon surprised to find that his gradually cooling brain had become clear again.

His life force ceased to flow away.

He then noticed that all the Parademons around him were inexplicably broken into pieces.

No, it's not inexplicable.

An ancient god, crackling with electricity, hangs high in the sky.

The Amazonian, a chaotic mechanical lifeform who had acquired Apokolips technology, Atlanteans all surrounded him and the blond man in front of him who claimed to be Kryptonian.

On the other side, the Kryptonian holding the Mother Box got into a conflict with his fellow Kryptonians.

As he walked toward the other two Mother Box on the shelf, his free hand simply blocked the fist and energy beam that would have shattered even if he were fully armed.

"What are you planning to do?" Clark was baffled by all of this.

A mysterious resurrection.

A crisis whose details are unknown.

A tall, axe-wielding, demonic-like being clad in Winky silver armor that resembled fur covering its entire body.

Aside from his clothing, the Kryptonian in front of me didn't seem to possess any power that resembled that of Kryptonian.

Clark was faced with words that were a collection of his many doubts.

Zod didn't speak, his face expressionless, he just kept moving forward.

"Stop him, Clark," Batman said.

As he spoke, he gestured to the Flash with his eyes.

"I can't do it. Diana is watching me." The Flash smiled wryly. "I'll be attacked as soon as I move. That's what my gut tells me."

His words were filled with doubt, and his gaze fell upon Wonder Woman.

"I haven't received divine training. I'm just an Amazon, crudely using divine power and artifacts." Wonder Woman has come to understand the difference between her and Diana, and it's not just about appearance.

As her counterpart, she was even more able to sense Diana's power.

She did consider using a shield and wrist guards to protect the Flash.

But her intuition told her the same thing as the Flash.

Only the carefree and nonchalant Aquaman, who doesn't seem to care about anything, directly took action.

Crackling sounds~

In an instant, a bolt of lightning appeared out of nowhere.

He had already fallen to the ground sprawled out, convulsing.

And Diana.

"No one can disturb Basil's fun." She now held a hammer in her hand.

"It is my honor that you would take a fancy to Apokolips and the great Darkseid for amusement," Steppenwolf said hastily.

He had already seen through Basil's intentions.

But he was far less cowardly than he appeared.

He also did not believe that Basil would be a match for Darkseid.

He simply wanted to act as obsequiously as possible so that the portal to Apokolips could be opened in this world, allowing him to return to his homeland.

"Do you have a hammer?" The Flash asked Wonder Woman quickly.

"No, I've never seen this artifact before," Wonder Woman, puzzled.

"This is Mjolnir," Diana said, twirling the hammer handle with a show of pride. "Basil gave it to me."

"Are you Half-blood of an Old God and Kryptonian?" Wonder Woman asked in surprise.

Mjolnir was no stranger to her, as she was well-versed in the genealogy of the gods.

Norse Mythology is not uncommon; on the contrary, it is widely known.

"Right now I'm just Kryptonian." Basil raised an eyebrow. "If I'm too powerful, the game won't be fun."

"You're lying. Even as Kryptonian, you are stronger Darkseid. He's just an eight-year-old child in your presence." These were the words of death, only Basil and Diana could perceive.

Basil ignored the thought of death and walked slowly forward.

Wonder Woman, Batman, the Flash, Cyborg, who were blocking the way, felt a cold force suddenly appear in their limbs and bones, and then their bodies were taken over, automatically making way for them.

"What are you doing?" Superman's head was practically burning to mush at the sight.

Even with his super brain, he couldn't understand it.

Inside the entire building, at that moment it seemed as if only the sound of Basil's increasingly loud footsteps remained.

"And now?"

"You—" The sudden voice in his ear made Clark want to turn his head sharply.

But to his surprise, he found himself frozen in mid-air, unable to move, like a flying insect frozen in amber.

His eyes were bloodshot.

It's not because I can't move.

Instead, Zod had already let go.

The three Mother Box were already close, and the power to restart the entire surface surged between them. Clark was resurrected by the power of the Mother Box, felt his scalp tingle.

It was the same feeling he had when he was a toddler and sensed something heavy falling from above and about to hit him.

"No!" x5

The awakened Aquaman joins the quartet of Batman, the Flash, Wonder Woman, and Cyborg.

They all knew that the unification of the Mother Box represented more than just the opening of the blast tunnel to Apokolips.

It also means that the entire Earth's environment and life will be restarted, shattered and reshaped into the ecology of Apokolips.

Only life forms reconstructed by the power of the Mother Box, Apokolips life forms, powerful life forms far from the center of the reconstructing power, or life forms just inside a sufficiently sturdy shelter, can survive on this planet.

"There's still a while. Why are you making so much noise?" Basil yawned, looked at the slowly merging Mother Box, and his gaze darkened. "Too slow."

His voice seemed to be the Word Spirit of commanding all things.

The sound of metal being squeezed echoed out of thin air the moment it fell.

In the dazzling blue light, the three Mother Box merged completely.

"He's here!" Steppenwolf exclaimed with delight.

"It's too late." Cyborg and the others were dejected.

"What?" Steppenwolf's joy froze.

Because everything unfolded exactly as he had envisioned.

At the center of the reorganizing force, even Kryptonian would be broken down into elementary particles.

However, that power was confined to a small space of about one foot square not far away. Only when the sonic boom channel opened and the smell of Apokolips air began to appear in his nasal cavity could he prove that what had just happened was not an illusion.

"Are we still alive?" The Cyborg, who was modified by Apokolips technology, knows best the significance of this.

"Of course, Niko." Basil turned around.

Then look at the twilight-like sky inside the sonic tunnel, and the tall figure with his hands behind his back.

"You have arrived, Darkseid."

"Uh, your eyes are so small."

"Are you trying to enlarge the Omega Beams by using your eyes?"

The other side of the passage.

"How dare you—" Desaad tried to rush into the passage, but Darkseid stopped him with one hand.

"I will kill him with my own hands," Darkseid said, "With my ray, and then resurrect him countless times. Your time to shine will come later."

The Omega Beams emanating from his eyes are not simply high-temperature or destructive rays, but contain the power of the Omega Effect, capable of completely annihilating an opponent or reviving them.

"Yes, my lord." Desaad bowed his head. "I will do my best to use all my talents."

Desaad was not only Darkseid's scientist and strategist.

His greatest expertise lies in the design and manufacture of torture devices, and he is highly proficient in the science of torture.

"No, my lord." The silver-haired old woman, whose name was Granny Goodness, smiled gently. "The torment of the mind is permanent."

"Desaad's tricks are the worst; let me just chuckle."

Her greatest skill is controlling people's minds, using endless mental torture to brainwash potential non- Apokolips warriors.

Basil ignored their threats and simply kicked Steppenwolf's head toward the other side like a soccer ball.

Darkseid stepped on it and performed an epic ball control.

"My Lord, he is Half-blood of Krypton and the Old Gods!" Steppenwolf did not feel insulted, but quickly recounted everything he knew. "He caused the Mother Box to merge ahead of schedule with just one sentence."

"He's more troublesome than Zeus."

"Early unification?" Darkseid narrowed his eyes. "So you didn't contribute anything to it?"

"No, no, I collected two Mother Box." Steppenwolf said quickly, sensing the pressure coming from his head.

"Only two?" Darkseid pressed down slightly with his foot.

Snap—

Steppenwolf's head exploded like a watermelon.

"Now." Darkseid looked at Basil with a slightly cautious expression, preparing to say something harsh.

The fact that the Steppenwolf's head, which had been reassembled from pieces of bone, flesh, and brain, made him stop.

Desaad and the Granny Goodness quickly stepped back.

Sizzle sizzle—

Omega Beams spilled from Darkseid's eyes, curving around and shattering Steppenwolf's head once more.

However, the next second, their heads came together again.

"Keep going!" Basil egged them on.

Batman and his crew behind Basil finally breathed a sigh of relief.

All of Basil's previous words, as well as his expression while speaking, were strung together in their minds.

It turns out that Darkseid, the Dark Lord, was really just a punching bag and a source of amusement for Basil.

"It's you—!" Darkseid, though defeated, was utterly shocked and took a step forward.

The Omega Effect is a special kind of entropy force, which is the destructive opposite of the origin of creativity.

Therefore, it should be able to vaporize, erase, act as an energy explosion/energy beam, or transform any form of matter, whether living or non-living.

It can even be tracked or traveled between different locations, times, dimensions, and even the universe.

This is the power of the new gods of the Apocalypse. Even Darkseid is merely the possessor. If he dies, the Omega effect will automatically return to the planet to find the next qualified person.

However, this immense power was thwarted by the Half-blood of the Old Gods and Kryptonian before him.

It's not him personally, but his power.

"Oh, not only are you not afraid, but you're even coming closer to me?" Basil taunted. "Aha—! So it was all an act."

The Steppenwolf, the third closest to the passage, noticed the portal rapidly shrinking. "My lord, you—"

The image of Darkseid that he held in his mind shattered instantly.

"Zod!"

A pair of hands suddenly appeared on either side of the portal to the blast tunnel. The Kryptonian with a buzz cut and beard exerted force, and the portal expanded again.

Basil turned around, and the people behind him regained control of their bodies. "Go! Infiltrate Apokolips!"
