Inside the teleportation chamber.
Link stood still, seemingly deaf to the piercing alarm ringing throughout the space station.
He could sense waves of energy powerful enough to shake a planet converging on this place from every direction at astonishing speed.
He could even hear that the fastest of them had already reached the door.
Boom!!!
A deep, deafening blow struck the heavy black alloy door, as though it might shatter the soul along with everything else.
The entire chamber trembled, and the space around it trembled too.
That was Superman's fist.
Link's expression did not change. His gaze remained fixed on the living miracle floating in the center of the room.
The Mother Box.
It seemed startled by the sudden violence. Energy raced faster through the circuits on its surface, giving off an uneasy pulse like a living heartbeat.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The blows came harder, one after another.
The door, forged from Apokoliptian technology and Earth's finest alloys, began to groan under the strain. Countless fine cracks spread from the point of impact like a frantic web.
Outside, Superman had reached the height of his fury.
He could neither understand nor accept it.
They had poured all their wisdom and strength into building the safest refuge on Earth. Yet now it was like an egg stripped of its shell, while their most dangerous enemy strolled through its very heart.
This was more than an invasion. It was a humiliation.
A brazen mockery of the entire Justice League!
"Open... now!!!"
With a roar, Superman channeled the solar energy stored within him into one fist and smashed it against the cracked door.
Inside the chamber, Link finally moved.
He ignored the door on the verge of breaking. He ignored the furious gods beyond it.
All he saw was the Mother Box
