Cerberus realized that he had gone too far and rushed forward to comfort him. It was only thanks to the divine power she had infused into him and the powerful blessing from the Chaos Ripper that Diana, after countless attempts, actually found traces of the Anti-Life Equation in herself and successfully stimulated Omega rays from her eyes. As a result, the current heroine has "confirmed" her "true" identity as the offspring of Darkseid...

'Damn, why didn't I notice before that the symbiote would copy the powers of the host?'

Seeing that Diana ignored him, Cerberus' expression became more and more subtle. She never thought that she on Earth 0 would be so single-minded. Not only did he believe her lies, but he also began to use Darkseid as a reference, constantly testing whether he had the same power as the Lord of Apokolips. As a result, this person not only successfully triggered the Anti-Life Equation, but also shot out the Omega Effect from his eyes... How the hell can he wash away this!

"No...you don't have to comfort me anymore. I just...I just can't quite adapt."

After a long struggle between her conscience and her conscience, Diana finally wiped away the tears on her face and turned to look at Cerberus who had been standing behind her for a long time. It would have been better if she hadn't turned back. When she turned back...

"Wow, you even learned the mimicry of the symbiote without any instruction!"

Looking at the other's eyes that had turned completely black, with the pupils and whites indistinguishable, Cerberus felt his scalp tingling. To be honest, this time she was probably really out of her mind. Originally, she had imagined that after playing with Diana for a while, she would suddenly say that she was just teasing her, and then provoke her anger and make her face him more forcefully. A reasonable lashing was a reward for her now. Unfortunately, the reality was far more outrageous than she had imagined.

The other party...actually believed her lies!

"But then again, this kind of evil plot is actually quite exciting when you think about it."

While Cerberus was brainstorming, Diana over there slowly showed a determined expression, as if she had completed adjusting her emotions.

"I think this matter must be reported to the League as soon as possible. No matter how righteous I was in the past, I cannot bear the title of Darkseid's daughter alone, even now. The power of the Anti-Life Equation and the Omega Effect cannot be faked. As time goes by, I can feel more and more that my heart is slowly being eroded by darkness. I don't know when I will be swallowed by this power, but I am sure that Batman will be able to think of a solution..."

Unfortunately, before Diana could finish her words, she was interrupted by Cerberus.

"What strange things are you saying? Being swallowed by darkness? You are already part of darkness, how can you be swallowed? All you need to do is become the master of these powers. They have been sealed for thousands of years, and now is the weakest time. Even Darkseid himself didn't know that there was such a power left outside. What you have to do now is to accept it, not to resist it. The more you resist, the more it wants to return to its master. By then, Darkseid will be successfully attracted to the earth by your stupid behavior."

Cerberus lied to Diana without blushing and his heart was not beating, and once again made the heroine silent. She just admired the other's tangled face and waited for twenty minutes before she heard Diana's voice again.

"Tell me...how should I do it?"

After weighing everything, Diana finally gritted her teeth and asked Cerberus in a decisive tone.

"It's simple. Just don't resist it."

As he spoke, Cerberus secretly controlled the symbiote in Diana's body. The other party obviously did not notice the existence of this strange creature, so she felt that it was time for her to help the big tail behind her and reduce the burden.

"Just...don't resist?"

Diana half-believed and half-doubted, letting go of her mind and letting the darkness that continued to spread in her body erode her body. Cerberus on the side successfully seized this fleeting opportunity and directly poured one-third of his tail into the body of the heroine of the main world.

"Ugh?!!"

Diana groaned as she sensed the sudden expansion of power in her body. Then, Cerberus controlled the symbiotes to continue to merge in her body, gradually replacing the heroine's original skin and organs. A strange gelatinous film also began to spread all over her body surface...

"Success!"

Looking at Diana, whose figure had grown explosively and who looked almost identical to the Lady Death comic book he had found under Selina's bed, Cerberus showed a satisfied smile on his face.

"In this way, I believe the master will also be satisfied with this surprise."

When he thought of someone lying on the bed with a comic book in hand, Cerberus' smile became even more arrogant...

(PS: Keber is so mean! Get ready to glare at him.)

(PS2: I secretly pour cat food and dried fish on the ground, trying to lure readers and make money when I go home.)

Chapter 92 Selina's Secret War

Selina didn't know what Cerberus had done in the DC Universe. Because now she was sitting in the employee cafeteria of Parker Industries, eating the greasy lunch that should have belonged to the hard-working workers. Peter Parker, who had finally dealt with all the troubles caused by Otto's body swap with him, hadn't had time to settle down at the home of his nominal elementary school girlfriend when he was confused by the cafeteria robbery. He was embarrassed and helpless and was dragged here by Anna Maria...

“It’s not like I don’t want to pay.”

Waving the silver spoon, the mountain of gold on the ground, which was nearly a person's height, became several times larger. Selina stood in front of the hungry employees, holding plates in her hands, staring blankly at the empty kitchen. It was like a bottomless pit, eating a huge amount of food that could be counted by tons...

"you know?"

Anna, who rushed to the cafeteria with Parker, raised her eyebrows, her eyes constantly jumping back and forth between Spider-Man, who was also confused, and Selina.

"Um... maybe... maybe... Otto knows?"

Peter Parker's tone was a little uncertain when he said this, because his spider sense was almost as loud as the firecrackers in Chinatown during the New Year, as if his brain would explode if he got any closer. It was a creepy feeling, like steel needles poking at his back. He even thought about running away from here. If Anna hadn't been there to hold him back, he might have made a fool of himself in public.

"Octavis has no ability to recognize me. As for why I am here, the reason is actually very simple. I am waiting for someone."

Even though there was a thick crowd of people, Selina still turned her head and refuted the whispers between Peter Parker and her cheap girlfriend. The time she chose to intervene in the 616 universe was actually very lucky. It was just before the outbreak of the Secret War, that is, before Nick Fury killed the Observer and after the Constructor cleansed the universe. Originally, she planned to intervene during the time period of the X-Men vs. the Avengers, because that would allow her to get the Phoenix Force for free. However, considering that the existence of the Phoenix Five could be eliminated, the problems that might be caused would be greater than the Age of Ultron. So she could only settle for the second best and came when Frog was about to die.

However, if she did so, she would have less time to prepare. But the sudden appearance of the Star Regulator overturned her previous plan to fight the Transcendent Gods. Now, she just wanted to beat up some blind Transcendents who dared to approach her while traveling with the tentacle babies...

"Ma'am, this is a private place and not open to the public. If you need to dine, you should go to the Business Hotel. If I remember correctly, there is a good restaurant on Clinton Street, less than 200 meters away."

Pretending that he didn't hear the other person talking to herself, Peter Parker pretended to be calm and pushed through the crowd to come to the uninvited guest. Even though the two sides had not communicated before, the spider sense had already alerted him frantically. So he knew very well that this seemingly lazy woman was definitely not a good person. It was just that there were too many employees gathered in the restaurant, and if a conflict occurred, the consequences would be disastrous.

"From what you said...it seems like you don't know what just happened on the moon."

Ignoring Peter Parker's words, Selina just finished the remaining burgers and General Tso's chicken. In fact, she hadn't eaten proper Chinese food for a long time. After all, it was not until 2010 that this thing became popular in the United States.

Before this, the various Panda Express restaurants in the United States were basically Chinese food, but they were not what they seemed. As for their commonality, there was only one thing, which was that they were sweet enough. Thanks to the time jump brought by the time travel, she even had the opportunity to eat McDonald's famous Sichuan hot sauce once in 1998. However, she thought it was very average. Because the taste of that thing was basically bean paste with a lot of sugar added...

"Moon?"

Peter was stunned by this nonsense. But before he could say anything else, everyone present could clearly hear the approaching thunder...

"Stab!"

Several dazzling lightning bolts suddenly fell from the sky. A figure holding Thor's hammer pushed open the door of the staff cafeteria and walked straight in. Then, in front of everyone's surprised eyes, he put the hammer aside, knelt on one knee in front of the white-haired woman at the table, and performed the highest etiquette of Asgard.

"Welcome, Great Dark One, the Almighty One above all. I am Thor Odinson, Lord of Asgard. On behalf of Asgard and the worlds beneath the World Tree, I would like to express my sincere gratitude for stopping the coming of Twilight."

The person who came was none other than the God of Thunder who was sent back to the original timeline from Gel by Selina not long ago!

"It's a pity that your world is still full of disasters as always. Fortunately, Reed Richards, who came from a short time ago, made a deal with me. Your father should have told you the purpose of my visit."

Seeing the Thor from Universe 616 coming in aggressively, Selina thought he was going to fight with her to express his dissatisfaction with being thrown back to the past. Who knew that he would slide down to her. It is said that you should not hit a smiling person, and she was also very curious about where these strange titles came from. Logically, her influence on the space-time continuum should be limited to the world where the God Butcher Gorr and the old Thor were.

"Yes, my father saw your arrival through the Fountain of Wisdom. But something bad happened not long ago, so I couldn't get here in time."

Thor stood up from the ground, adjusted his cape, and picked up Mjolnir again. He behaved neither servile nor overbearing, and was completely different from the husky-like hammer god in the MCU universe.

After experiencing a series of major events, he is much more mature than many moviegoers think.

But even so, becoming the king of Asgard still made him feel tremendous pressure, and he even turned into a hands-off boss, leaving everything to his brother Loki to handle...

(PS: I’m so hungry! I need some money to eat my fill!)

Chapter 93 The Slow Progress of the Trouble

"Something bad?!!"

Before Selina could speak, Peter Parker next to her called out. At this moment, two more figures suddenly appeared outside the door of the staff cafeteria. They were the Punisher, Frank Castle. And the Supreme Sorcerer of the 616 universe, Stephen Strange. Someone sitting in the cafeteria didn't feel anything strange about these two uninvited guys. About fifteen minutes before she came to this universe, the Observer Frog died. And his death also indicated that the loss of control of the multiverse would become urgent.

In fact, many people don't know that the Observers have the power to interfere with the process of the multiverse. Although they say that they will not interfere with the civilization in the universe, in fact, a long time ago, the Living Tribunal gave the Observers the seat of judges to cut off the time branch and control the number of parallel universes. The work content of the Observers at that time was infinitely close to that of the Celestials. However, in view of the comics after Marvel's All-New and All-Different, everything can be attributed to the Celestials. So it is not so strange that the Observers have this power. Moreover, compared with the Time Anomaly Management Bureau in the Thor book, the Observers are more like the group that can establish the sacred timeline...

However, Selina's goal is obviously not the power of the Observers. She came here mainly to ensure that her influence will not exceed the scope of the space-time continuum during the subsequent secret war. By the way, she is also preparing to collect a group of troops for herself to fight. Although many people believe that only the heroes of the 616 universe are the strongest. But she knows that powerful guys are not limited to the 616 universe. For example, a certain Iron Man who became the Supreme Sorcerer even appeared in the comics of the death of Doctor Strange.

"Stephen? What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be taking the Punisher to another dimension to look for clues?"

Thor, who didn't know whether the two were here to cause trouble or to do something else, stood in front of Selina with his hammer. He didn't know if Strange would be impulsive, but the Punisher Frank Castle was not a man who liked to talk. He was afraid that if this guy got involved in a good thing, everyone would end up in a bad mood. After all, he knew very well that all the people standing here now were not enough for the Outer Realm God to beat with one hand.

"I am the Supreme Sorcerer of this world. Just after the Observer died, your goddess friend suddenly appeared on Earth. If I don't come to take a look, the others will not be so easy to talk to."

Strange had just finished speaking when Selina, who had conjured a bottle of wine for him, suddenly spoke.

"Then you must be the worst Sorcerer Supreme I have ever seen. Every world is like this, not good enough to accomplish anything but always causing trouble. Don't tell me that your multiverse has become like this. You haven't realized what will happen in a while? As for why I am here now, you can go ask your Dr. Reed Richards."

Hearing this, Strange was stunned for a moment. Mr. Fantastic's whereabouts have always been mysterious recently, and he has been in his laboratory almost 24 hours a day. But what exactly Dr. Richards is doing, neither the Avengers nor the magic group he leads is clear. Because this is not the first time Reed has done something like this. He often locks himself in the laboratory to do scientific research without thinking about food and drink. Even his wife Susan is somewhat accustomed to it. Since even the other party's family doesn't care much about this matter, let alone other heroes who are outsiders...

"Perhaps you usually think that tomatoes can only be slaughtered and eaten by caterpillars. But what you don't know is that in order to resist, the tomato plants will collectively communicate at the information level. They produce strong toxins on the leaves, making it impossible for caterpillars to eat them. At this time, the caterpillars will face two outcomes. Either they starve to death or they eat each other. Your multiverse is now developing in this direction. And you have become the caterpillars that have to start eating your own kind. You have no choice, because there are only tomatoes in this world. That huge tomato plant group is your world. If you can't survive on tomatoes, then your fate is doomed."

Selina did not tell Strange the details of the secret war, but she used a very accurate metaphor. Under the premise that everyone does not know that there are apples, bananas, strawberries, and other fruits from other worlds, the branches and leaves of tomatoes have become the only world in the eyes of those caterpillars. As long as the tomatoes die, they will also disappear in the environment where everything dies.

Meanwhile, somewhere far away in the DC multiverse...

Cerberus was looking at Diana Prince in front of him with satisfaction. With a heavy expression on her face, she was constantly testing her new powers under the watchful eyes of several other alliance elders. Thanks to the latex mask, the weird smile on her face was not discovered by the Justice League of the main world.

"This is just...amazing!"

Feeling the power coming from his arms getting stronger and stronger, even Superman, the son of Krypton, couldn't help but sigh that the heroine who awakened her own bloodline was so powerful beyond imagination.

"Are you sure you don't feel any discomfort right now?"

The fastest man in the world, who was urgently conscripted, stood beside Cyborg, staring in amazement at the data sent back from the monitor, which was getting bigger and bigger.

"No, I don't feel any discomfort. The power is still pouring out, but it is far from reaching its limit. I even have a premonition that if I set foot on Apocalypse, I will probably become even stronger..."

Diana's face was not very good when she stood in the experimental field. For a warrior, becoming stronger should be a happy and joyful thing. But as long as she thought about her possible life experience as the daughter of Darkseid, she couldn't be happy for a moment.

"But this is already very astonishing. Do you know that the pressure you are under right now is equivalent to the total mass of the entire solar system! Even Superman at his best is no more than this."

Hearing Diana's words, Cyborg couldn't help but be shocked.

(PS: So, should we also take Diana from the main world? Or, let her play the trick of me on myself with Cerberus?)

(PS2: Then he stretched out a hand, put it in the bowl and started waiting for the tickets...)

Chapter 94 Dark Wonder Woman

As more and more items were tested, Diana was frightened again and again by her own power that was highly similar to Darkseid's. However, this emotion was short-lived and did not last long. Now, she has long been numb to the various changes in her body.

"Focus, Diana."

Clark seemed to notice the absent-mindedness of the heroine, so he increased the strength of his hands and reminded her. He could understand her feelings at the moment, as he had experienced these things before. However, after truly understanding his own life experience, he was somewhat relieved. Even in the Fortress of Solitude, his record of this incident only consisted of four sentences in total.

The planet was destroyed, the scholars were in despair, the only son survived, and was adopted by a kind person...

"When I first came out to Louise, do you know what she said?"

So, he looked at Diana in front of him and told a joke.

"She said, are you Clark? Clark Kent? Have you been pretending to be Clark Kent or…"

At this point, he paused.

"And I said, I'm Clark Kent."

Hearing this, Diana was stunned. She looked at the Son of Krypton in front of her with some disbelief.

"But even so, Lois still couldn't believe it. I was really Superman. A boy from Krypton, who drifted here from the other side of the galaxy. But our confession didn't change our lives much. She was still Lois Lane, a veteran journalist and winner of the Lipzer Prize. And also... my lover."

Looking at Diana who had fallen silent, Clark continued.

"I once picked flowers from Alpha Sagittarius 4 for her because they can sing, so I think Louise will like them."

But what he didn't say was that when he first saw the blue planet where humans lived from the sky, he suddenly realized that this place seemed to need someone to protect it. He felt that there needed to be someone, or a group of people, to stand up and make everything go on the right track. And he also thought about when he would leave...
