Mera never imagined that the man who had always been so powerful, the man who had torn apart the sea monster Carlson, would one day be beaten so badly in front of her that he was powerless to fight back.

The overwhelming energy blasts seemed like Beckett's farewell fireworks for himself, the explosions in the sky highlighting Darkseid's utterly cold expression.

"No..."

"Beckett, Beckett, Beckett!"

Despite the stinging pain, Mera went straight to Beckett's side and pulled the blood-soaked man out of the rubble.

The hole left by the Omega Beam in her chest caused Mera's pupils to contract sharply.

She could even see the mound of yellow earth beneath Beckett through the holes in his body...

His charred skin had stopped bleeding, Beckett's eyes were tightly closed, and his weak breathing was intermittent, Mera anxious and at a loss.

She wanted to save people, but didn't know how to do it.

The silent flow of water, manipulated by Mera, had just reached Beckett's wound when his tightly closed eyes snapped open. With lightning speed, her right arm, veins bulging, locked onto Mera's throat, pinning her beneath her!

Bang!

Mera felt a pang of heartache at the sight of those menacing eyes, and she didn't even have time to consider the pain in her own body.

"Tsk..."

Beckett released his grip, staggered to his feet, and took out three test tubes filled with Nutrient Fluid from the bracelet.

He drank two of them himself, and threw the other one into Mera's arms.

Thanos's specially made Nutrient Fluid was rapidly repairing every nerve in Beckett's body, and the tingling, itchy sensation made Beckett's breathing gradually become heavier.

The depleted cells seemed to transform into gluttons, eagerly absorbing every drop of nutrition flowing into Beckett's body.

His shriveled muscles gradually regained their former luster, and Beckett's body slowly floated into the air.

Snap!

A pale arm was placed on Beckett's shoulder before he took off.

"Don't go to Beckett again!"

"You are no match for him, you will die!"

Turning around, Mera was pleading earnestly, holding Nutrient Fluid in her hand.

Previous encounters have proven that Beckett is no match for Darkseid.

Going up now would be nothing short of suicide for Mera.

Click!

Beckett removed the silver bracelet from his right wrist and tossed it into Mera's hand.

"Beckett, you—"

Mera thought Beckett had really listened to her advice, and a smile had just appeared on her lips when the man's figure vanished before her eyes, leaving only one sentence echoing in her ears:

"I will not die. I will not die until I go home and until I kill Frieza."

With Woz's safety no longer a concern, Beckett was completely free.

The Saiyan, constantly being repaired and consuming Nutrient Fluid, moved continuously within Beckett's body, providing him with the power to fight time and time again.

This time, Beckett's goal was clear— the Mother Box.

Clang!

Beckett, charging recklessly, crashed headfirst into an invisible wall!

The Mother Box, so close yet so unattainable for Beckett.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Heavy and powerful Iron Fist landed one after another on Beckett's back!

Despite Darkseid's incredibly slow punches, Beckett was unable to dodge them and could only forcefully withstand the Lord of Apokolips's Iron Fist with his own flesh and blood.

"Which universe do you come from, outsider?"

He has a healing agent that can alleviate the damage from Omega Beam, and his severely injured body can still withstand three of his punches.

Darkseid became very interested in the man's background.

"Who knows?"

Beckett, panting heavily, floated not far from Darkseid and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"Your goal is also the Mother Box."

"You want to use the energy of the Mother Box to go back."

"In other words, you know the coordinates of your original universe."

Darkseid's gaze then fell on Beckett's wrist, where the Artificial Intelligence life form that had previously existed was now empty.

Beckett grinned, his bloodstained teeth revealing a chilling glint. "Do you really want to know?"

Bang!

A deafening sonic boom rang out as Beckett, his blond hair flowing, crossed his arms in front of his chest, blocking Darkseid's punch.

The scarlet tail unexpectedly wrapped around Darkseid's right arm, and Darkseid spun around, crashing headfirst into his face!

Clang!

Iron-headed Beckett kept in mind his adoptive father Thanos's teachings: no matter who it is, their head is always their most vulnerable part.

And indeed, that is the case.

The shattered scalpel armor fully demonstrated the power of Beckett's headbutt, and a rare bloodstain appeared on Darkseid's cheek.

It was very small and very short, probably less than a centimeter long.

But this made Beckett smile broadly.

"Look, you bleed too."

"This means that you will die too."

Boom!

The raging air currents swirled around Beckett, like a giant ruler stirring up the dark sky and creating towering waves!

The Golden Flash in the sky above Gotham City relentlessly launched attack after attack on Darkseid.

Fists, palms, elbows, knees, legs, even teeth and tails.

Any part of the body that could be used as a weapon became a means of Beckett's attack. The aftershocks of energy dissipated, and the entire Gotham City was turned into a blood-soaked slaughterhouse.

Collapsed reinforced concrete, gushing crimson lava.

And that Golden Flash that looked extremely active in the air.

"Lord Steppenwolf, we—"

The leader of the Second Legion of Apocalypse, who was waiting in place, made a decapitation gesture, but Steppenwolf raised his hand to indicate that he did not need to.

"Let him vent."

The fact that Darkseid invaded Earth in ancient times but was driven back by the Amazons, sea creatures, humans, and the gods is a thorn firmly planted in Darkseid's heart.

For example... now.

Is that all you've got?

Click!

Darkseid landed with his foot on Beckett's right arm, the sound of bones cracking ringing out crisply...

"Tsk..."

The energy wave unleashed from a single arm struck Darkseid's chest, causing the latter to stagger back several steps. He then suddenly stretched out his large hand, grabbed Beckett's left arm, and swung it downwards!

Bang!

Beckett collapsed to the ground with a thud!

[No!!!!!]

Mera, her eyes filled with tears, repeatedly suppressed her urge to go out and help.

She knew that going out now would only make things worse.

She has to save Beckett, but she only has one chance.

This time, Darkseid won't care about her chance at all.

She can't waste it.

Buzz!

Suddenly,

The symphony of engine and exhaust pipes resounded in this battlefield personally pioneered by Darkseid, as a dilapidated Subaru Wing Leopard finally came to a stop in the midst of the battlefield after spinning out of control six or seven times.

A woman got out of the driver's seat.

A woman who was confused and filled with lingering fear.

Daily Planet reporter – Louise Lane

[Danger!]

Mera had been crouching in the shadows, suddenly narrowed her eyes. She saw the monsters in the sky flapping their wings, intending to deal with the woman who had mistakenly entered the battlefield because of a vehicle problem.

"Ah!!!!"

An instinctive scream rang out; Louis Lane screamed in terror, with no way to escape.

Sizzle!!

The next second, a figure that should have been gone long ago descended from the sky, and a sweeping Heat Vision instantly obliterated all the monsters rushing towards Louise Lane...

The water that Mera had gathered in her hand vanished instantly...

"K... Clark?"

Louise Lane, who had been waiting for death for so long, opened her eyes and saw her boyfriend, who should have been buried long ago.
