Chapter Summaries

Chu Hang absorbed Rabum Alal’s White Divine Power and learned that the Beyonders had planted Molecule Men in every universe as living bombs. He located his universe’s Molecule Man and left with Wanda, unaware that an observer from the Beyond Realm had locked onto Earth-199999.

• Chu Hang devoured the White Divine Power, extracted its information, and discovered that the Beyonders had bound a Molecule Man to each universe so his death would erase it.
• Chu Hang told Wanda that Rabum Alal, revealed as Doctor Doom, hunted Molecule Men to prevent the chain reaction and concealed the truth so he could control who survived.
• Chu Hang used the extracted energy frequency to locate the Molecule Man in a town outside Denver, Colorado, and opened a rift to Earth-199999.
• Wanda sensed a distant presence watching them, so Chu Hang raised defenses and took her through the rift as the Forbidden Zone’s seventh level began to collapse.
• The Truth Recorder sealed the routes to Earth-199999 after the Beyond Realm locked onto its coordinates, then an ancient voice declared that Chu Hang would find the answer himself.
• The Truth Recorder’s records erased Chu Hang and Wanda’s visit to the World Library.

Chu Hang entered Owen Reece’s reality-warping apartment and stabilized the Beyonders’ origin energy inside him, cutting him off from the network linking Molecule Men across the Multiverse. Adam then began absorbing Owen’s remaining energy, leaving Chu Hang and Wanda uncertain about their son’s power.

• Chu Hang and Wanda found Owen Reece in an apartment where his uncontrolled power distorted reality, and Chu Hang halted the chaos with the Control Origin.
• Chu Hang combined the Control Origin with White Divine Power to stabilize Owen and uncovered how the Beyonders’ resonance network spread fear and destruction among Molecule Men.
• Chu Hang sealed Owen’s volatile energy and severed his connection to the Multiversal sensory network, though he warned the seal could fail if disturbed.
• Adam awakened and used his Void Origin to absorb Owen’s remaining Beyonders’ energy before falling asleep again.

Adam devoured part of the Beyonders' energy inside Owen Reece, and Chu Hang took Owen from Earth to the Void Fortress to keep him beyond Rabum Alal's reach. After Rabum Alal discovered Chu Hang's decoy and traps in Denver, Chu Hang isolated Owen and placed a Law Mark on him to monitor his energy.

• Adam devoured some of the Beyonders' energy inside Owen, while the Void Origin purified it and grew stronger.
• Chu Hang warned Owen that Rabum Alal was hunting him and prepared a decoy node in Denver surrounded by time, spatial, and cognitive traps.
• Chu Hang brought Wanda, Adam, and Owen through a rift to the Void Fortress, explaining that Owen could help Adam counter the Beyonders' power.
• Rabum Alal found the decoy, saw through Chu Hang's traps, and suspected that a being capable of devouring the Beyonders' energy was involved.
• At the Void Fortress, Chu Hang placed a Law Mark on Owen and isolated him in a chamber that severed causal links.

Chu Hang used Owen Reece’s connection to the Molecule Man network to uncover Rabum Alal’s approach and seize control of the network long enough to search for Doctor Doom. He hid the Void Fortress’s coordinates from the intruder, but Rabum Alal detected the breach and began searching for its source.

• Tony Stark’s scan revealed that Owen was linked to Molecule Men across the Multiverse, and Strange warned that their connected energy cores could trigger a catastrophic chain reaction.
• Chu Hang identified Earth-199999 as Rabum Alal’s next target, while Tony proposed using Owen’s network connection to locate Doctor Doom.
• Chu Hang awakened Owen’s energy nodes, projecting a Multiversal map that showed 1,372 connected universes and 137 already destroyed by Rabum Alal.
• Chu Hang traced Rabum Alal’s path to Universe 621, where a newly awakened Molecule Man faced destruction within twelve hours.
• Chu Hang used the Control, Greed, and Phoenix Origins to break through the Beyonders’ safeguards and turn the network into a monitoring system, alerting Rabum Alal to the intrusion.
• Chu Hang disguised the Void Fortress’s coordinates among false nodes, and Rabum Alal’s search trail settled on a remote universe before fading.

Chu Hang, Clark, and Wanda infiltrated Universe-621 to rescue its Molecule Man from the Black Swan Cult before Rabum Alal could seize him. After defeating Yabbat Umon Turru, Chu Hang learned that Rabum Alal planned to build Battleworld from fragments of destroyed universes, then faced the villain's projection.

• Chu Hang took Clark and Wanda to Universe-621, where the Black Swan Cult was preparing to execute its Molecule Man.
• The trio broke into the cathedral, and Clark destroyed the cultists' Dark Matter spears while Wanda turned their tentacles to stone.
• Yabbat Umon Turru attacked Chu Hang with a forbidden Burnout strike, but Chu Hang absorbed the attack and erased her.
• Chu Hang examined Yabbat's memories and discovered Rabum Alal planned to use captured Molecule Men and fragments of countless universes to create Battleworld.
• Rabum Alal projected himself onto the altar and told Chu Hang that he was actively interfering with his plans.

Chu Hang rejected Doctor Doom’s invitation to join Battleworld and exposed the cost of Doom’s plan, then attacked him through the projection. Doom severed the connection, but Molecule Man’s released energy began eroding the altar as Universe 621 collapsed.

• Doctor Doom offered Chu Hang a place in Battleworld and claimed his sacrifices would save universes from the Beyonders’ purge.
• Chu Hang accused Doctor Doom of killing countless lives to build a throne and challenged the consequences of further sacrificing Molecule Men.
• Doctor Doom showed Chu Hang how Molecule Men’s deaths created spreading cracks in the Multiverse and revealed Battleworld, assembled from fragments of destroyed universes.
• Chu Hang used the Greed Concept and Control Origin to trace Doom’s projection back to his body, then sent a psychic blast through the connection.
• Doctor Doom cut the connection and warned Chu Hang that the Beyonders would arrive in six months.
• Molecule Man’s extraction tubes exploded, releasing Beyonders’ origin energy that began eroding the space around the altar.

Chu Hang stopped Molecule Man’s Beyonders energy from destroying Universe-621, subdued and purified it, and restored Molecule Man’s body. After Clark and Wanda took Molecule Man to the Void Fortress for treatment, Chu Hang pieced together clues to Doctor Doom’s true body and his prisoners.

• Clark and Wanda tried to contain the runaway energy as it erased the altar, but their defenses could not overcome its higher authority.
• Chu Hang isolated the altar in a slowed spacetime bubble and imposed a rule that stopped energy from flowing without his permission.
• Chu Hang used his Control Origin, Phoenix Origin, and Greed Concept to suppress the energy, divert some of it into his Inner Universe, and purify some for Molecule Man.
• Chu Hang restored Molecule Man’s body and energy nodes, then opened a rift to the Void Fortress as Wanda determined that Molecule Man’s mind needed a long recovery.
• Clark and Wanda carried the sleeping Molecule Man through the rift to the Void Fortress, while Chu Hang analyzed fragments revealing Doctor Doom’s platform and imprisoned Molecule Men.

Chu Hang discovered that Doctor Doom had isolated Universe 621 and accelerated its collapse, then fought the Beyonders' Mapmakers and seized their data and energy. He escaped through a rift to the Void Fortress just before Universe 621 was erased.

• Chu Hang traced Doctor Doom's green energy mark and realized it had severed Universe 621's ties to the Multiverse, leaving the universe only hours from collapse.
• Three Mapmakers descended and began formatting the altar, but Chu Hang absorbed their beams and restrained one construct with the Law of Space.
• Chu Hang breached the Mapmakers' hive network, learned that the Beyonders used Molecule Man as an experimental energy container, and found Doctor Doom's hidden data block.
• Chu Hang marked Doctor Doom's encrypted data, devoured the hive network, and drained all three Mapmakers, strengthening the Void Walkers.
• As Universe 621 collapsed, Chu Hang opened a rift to the Void Fortress and escaped before the universe was erased.

Chu Hang contained the Beyonders’ energy, but Adam absorbed it and reached a stable balance with his Void Origin. Chu Hang then revealed that the Ivory King was behind the Multiverse-wide catastrophe and explained how the Beyonders planned to erase every universe.

• Chu Hang opened a vortex to contain the Beyonders’ energy as it threatened the Void Fortress, while Adam unexpectedly leaped into the vortex.
• Adam drew the scattered energy fragments to himself, and Chu Hang shielded him as he absorbed them.
• Adam emerged with the Beyonders’ energy in balance with his Void Origin, and Chu Hang gathered everyone to explain what he had learned.
• Chu Hang identified the Ivory King as the hidden manipulator and showed the Mapmakers’ data, revealing the countdowns for the targeted universes.
• Chu Hang explained that the Beyonders planted Molecule Man in every universe as a living bomb, whose death would erase that universe, while the Mapmakers cleared the aftermath and marked new targets.

Chu Hang planned to transform the Void Fortress into an ark that would rescue threatened civilizations and strike back at the Beyonders, while Tony examined the purified Mapmaker metal. The chapter ended when Adam effortlessly reshaped the metal and the Reed Council’s distress signal vanished.

• Chu Hang purified three masses of Mapmaker metal, and Tony began analyzing their advanced structure and testing its resistance to damage.
• Chu Hang showed Tony, Strange, and Clark that the Beyonders were accelerating their destruction of universes and proposed turning the Void Fortress into an ark that would rescue lives and hunt the enforcers.
• Adam floated to the analysis table and reshaped the metal with ease, revealing his ability to command the Beyonders’ creations.
• Nathaniel detected a distress signal from the Reed Council, but the signal disappeared before he could finish decoding it.

Chu Hang, Tony Stark, and Nathaniel reached the Reed Council’s headquarters and found the Reeds slaughtered and their research being erased by seven Black Swans. After defeating the Black Swans and learning how Rabum Alal destroyed the Council, Chu Hang found a surviving Reed Richards hidden beneath the wreckage.

• Chu Hang brought Tony and Nathaniel through a dimensional rift to the Reed Council’s ruined headquarters, where they found thousands of dead Reeds and destroyed technology.
• Tony recognized seven Black Swans erasing the Reeds’ research, and their leader declared that the knowledge defied the Great Destroyer’s divine law.
• Chu Hang stopped the Black Swans’ attack, subdued them with the Control Origin, and forcibly read their leader’s memories.
• Chu Hang learned that Rabum Alal had destroyed the Council to prevent its plan to fight the Beyonders and build a device to invade the Beyond Realm.
• Chu Hang teleported with Tony and Nathaniel to a hidden pocket beneath the wreckage, where they found a badly wounded Reed Richards still alive.

Chu Hang revived Reed Richards and learned that the Reed Council had created a Logic Virus that could threaten the Beyonders, while Rabum Alal had destroyed them and challenged Chu Hang to reach Battleworld. Chu Hang extracted the Council’s research, killed the seven Black Swans, and began restoring the devastated battlefield.

• Chu Hang healed Reed Richards, and Tony identified himself and Chu Hang as rescuers from Earth-199999.
• Reed told Chu Hang that Rabum Alal had killed fifty thousand members of the Reed Council and that they had developed a Logic Virus capable of interfering with the Beyonders.
• Reed explained that the virus lacked a suitable carrier and revealed that Rabum Alal had claimed to possess a power greater than the Beyonders and was waiting for Chu Hang in Battleworld.
• Chu Hang extracted the Council’s research and virus design from Reed’s mind and transferred the information to Tony.
• Chu Hang devoured the seven captured Black Swans, then activated the Control Origin and Phoenix Origin over the battlefield.

Chu Hang refined the fallen Council’s bodies, technology, and Infinity Stones into resources for the Void Fortress, then launched the Ark Project to prepare for war against the Beyonders. As his allies began their work, he sensed Rabum Alal watching them and withheld details about the Logic Virus’s carrier.

• Chu Hang used the Phoenix Origin and Control Origin to extract the Council’s technology, the Reeds’ genetic intellect, and the Infinity Stones’ power while explaining that the dead had no consciousness left.
• Chu Hang took the refined legacy through a portal to the Void Fortress, where Tony, Nathaniel, and Reed joined him and Superman.
• Chu Hang transferred the legacy into the fortress, causing its planetary fragments to fuse and its energy systems to improve.
• Chu Hang announced the Ark Project, assigned Tony and Reed to integrate the technology and build the Logic Virus framework, and asked Clark to gather the fighters.
• Reed asked about the Logic Virus’s carrier, but Chu Hang gave no answer as he sensed Rabum Alal watching from a distant dimension.

Tony Stark and Reed Richards completed a Logic Virus designed to destroy the Beyonders, but Adam was the only existing being who could carry it into the Beyond Realm. Chu Hang refused to sacrifice him and proposed creating an artificial carrier, just as a message from Battleworld announced an incoming green-energy object.

• Tony Stark and Reed Richards completed the Logic Virus and explained that its carrier would need a Beyonder energy signature, its own mind, and the ability to withstand conceptual collapse.
• Reed Richards identified the sleeping Adam as the only person in the fortress who met the carrier requirements, and Wanda erupted in Chaos Magic to protect her son.
• Chu Hang calmed Wanda, refused to let Adam become the carrier, and proposed using Mapmaker liquid metal and the Void Origin to build an artificial one.
• Chu Hang said he would solve the artificial carrier's need for a mind, and Nathaniel reported a signal from Battleworld approaching the Void Fortress.
• Tony displayed a message asking to see their new weapon, while Chu Hang recognized the incoming green energy as a gift from someone he knew.

Chu Hang intercepted a corrupted Mapmaker carrying Doom’s holographic projection and obtained Doom’s rewritten Beyonders code, partial Battleworld coordinates, and research after defeating the magic protecting it. Back at the Void Fortress, Tony and Reed examined the Mapmaker as Chu Hang began reshaping its liquid metal into a humanoid framework for their weapon against the Beyonders.

• Chu Hang stopped the unstable green energy, revealed the corrupted Mapmaker inside, and recognized Doom’s projection in a crystal embedded in its wreckage.
• Chu Hang burned away the Mapmaker’s green runes, exposing the Beyonders’ underlying code that Doom had rewritten, and brought the wreckage back to the Void Fortress.
• Chu Hang defeated the runes guarding Doom’s crystal and absorbed its information, including partial Battleworld coordinates and Doom’s research into the Beyonders.
• Tony and Reed examined the Mapmaker and discovered Doom had rebuilt its core architecture around his own logic.
• Chu Hang explained that he and Doom were using each other, then began stripping the Beyonders’ imprints from the liquid metal and shaping it into a human framework.

Chu Hang reforged the Beyonders’ liquid metal by burning away their directives and rewriting its logic with the Phoenix Origin and Control Origin. He summoned the Void Walker from his Inner Universe, leaving the newly freed metal flowing onto the creature’s head.

• Chu Hang began reshaping the liquid metal with the Phoenix Origin and Control Origin as Tony and Reed activated three advanced technologies to stabilize the process.
• Clark, Thor, Strange, Wanda, and Adam defended the control room as the metal resisted and threatened to collapse the lab.
• Chu Hang burned away the Beyonders’ imprints and rewrote the metal’s logic, while his Greed Concept devoured the runes attacking him.
• After the seventy-third energy surge, the Beyonders’ final restraint broke, and the liquid metal accepted Chu Hang’s new definition.
• Chu Hang opened a fissure into his Inner Universe and summoned the Void Walker, an ultimate creature created to devour void energy.
• The Void Walker emerged and bowed to Chu Hang, who let the liquid metal flow onto its head.

Chu Hang fused the Void Walker with liquid metal, implanted the Logic Virus, and gave it an artificial fighting consciousness. The transformation succeeded, and Chu Hang named the obedient new being Zero.

• The liquid metal and Void Origin fought until Chu Hang used the Greed Concept to force them to adapt and fuse.
• Chu Hang compressed the Void Walker while Tony and Reed injected the Logic Virus, which threatened to overload and destroy the vessel.
• Clark tried to pull out a conduit, but an electric surge blasted him into a wall, and Wanda caught him with Chaos Magic.
• Chu Hang created an artificial fighting consciousness and pressed it into the Void Walker's chest.
• The transformed Void Walker rose, knelt before Chu Hang, and linked its consciousness to him.
• Chu Hang confirmed the fusion and virus had succeeded, then named the being Zero.

Zero defeated Thor in a test by analyzing and rewriting the rules of his divine power, proving himself as the Godslayer. Chu Hang then launched the Ark Protocol, and Zero began transforming the Void Fortress into a living multiversal warship.

• Thor attacked Zero with Stormbreaker and the power of the Six Infinity Stones, but Zero analyzed the lightning and stopped the blow with one hand.
• Zero reversed the rules of Thor’s divine power, injuring him until Chu Hang subdued Zero and restored Thor’s power.
• Tony and Reed examined the combat data, and Thor conceded that Zero had defeated him; Chu Hang declared Zero had passed the test and announced the Ark Protocol.
• Zero liquefied into the Void Fortress’s energy systems, took control of its architecture, and began reshaping its hull, weapons, and defenses.
• Zero’s silver vessels avoided Wanda and Adam, while the fortress evolved into a structure poised between machine and living being.

The newly transformed Void Fortress, renamed the Ark, raced to Universe-404 to stop three Mapmakers from destroying it. Chu Hang and his allies arrived through a dangerous route outside reality, and the Ark impaled one Mapmaker as the hunt began.

• The Void Fortress completed its transformation into a living warship, and Chu Hang named it the Ark.
• Chu Hang ordered Zero to take the Ark to Universe-404, where three Mapmakers were rapidly erasing the universe.
• Reed warned that a conventional jump would take too long, so Chu Hang ordered Zero to tear through reality and travel outside the dimensional routes.
• Zero forged a safe passage through the Dimensional Interlayer, and the Ark reached Universe-404 in thirteen seconds.
• Chu Hang raised the Phoenix Origin, and Zero reshaped the Ark's hull into three black rams.
• The Ark charged the nearest Mapmaker and drove its rams into the creature's core.

Zero infected one Mapmakers with a Logic Virus and seized control of it, while the Ark absorbed the remaining Mapmakers' attacks. The converted Mapmakers turned on its former companions, destroying half of one before the battle continued.

• The three rams pierced a Mapmakers' shell, and Zero's liquid silver constructs infiltrated its body with a Logic Virus.
• Reed recognized that Zero was rewriting the Mapmakers' core logic as purple-black patterns spread through it and its systems began to fail.
• Two other Mapmakers fired Erasure Beams at the Ark, whose silver scales absorbed the energy and replenished its reserves.
• The remaining Mapmakers targeted their infected companion with reset beams, but its runes went dark and its core erupted with purple-red light.
• Zero announced that control of the target unit had been acquired, and the infected Mapmakers turned its cannon on its former companions.
• The infected Mapmakers struck one companion with a purple-red beam, breaking apart half its body.
