American Comics: Multiverse of Madness

348. Darkseid’s Arrives!!!

Darkseid, originally named Uxas, is one of the most powerful New Gods in the DC Multiverse, and he's also one of the most fearsome beings in existence.

His presence has a unique significance to the entire universe, which is why he can project avatars across countless multiverses. In the Prime Universe, even the legendary Spectre cannot judge him.

The Omega Effect, which is the source of Darkseid's power, is closely connected to the Anti-Life Equation, a concept of universal will. However, the current Darkseid is not his true form and doesn't possess the Anti-Life Equation, a weapon of mass destruction. Otherwise, Alex would think twice before daring to go all-out against him.

"Why didn't we keep Clark on Earth? If he and I teamed up, and with Black Canary wielding the power of Thor, we might be able to hold off Darkseid, maybe even defeat him," Kara asked, frowning in curiosity.

"That's a tough question to answer," Alex shook his head, sighing. "This universe is a world destined to be abandoned, but it still poses a significant threat to us. To prevent the collision of these two universes, we need the Flash's power."

"The Speed Force…" Kara started to understand.

Previously, Kara had focused on this world's threat to Earth—whether from Doomsday-like creatures or Darkseid himself, all these powerful enemies had consumed her attention.

But now, after Alex's reminder, Kara suddenly realized that the threat of this world was far more than just its enemies, because this universe itself was a major danger.

If not handled properly, it wouldn't just be about saving the people of this world—Alex's own post-apocalyptic universe might also be affected.

Kara raised her head, looking directly at Alex. "Are you suggesting that Barry Allen of this world should create another 'Flashpoint'?"

"Yes," Alex confirmed.

"If we can cut off this timeline at its source, separating these two universes will be much easier."

"No wonder you sent Black Canary and Clark to Apokolips; it looks like you're betting big on this plan. I can't believe I forgot such a significant risk," Kara sighed.

At this, Alex couldn't help but chuckle. He gently patted Kara's shoulder and said softly, "When it comes to this, you're no match for Pietro. But don't worry, you were a 'bookworm' before and never played any online games. Once you try a game with seven or eight quest lines, you'll also learn to see the bigger picture."

"Playing games actually helps with that?" Kara looked skeptical.

Alex laughed heartily, about to say something more, but the next moment, his smile froze, and his entire demeanor turned serious.

"Looks like we'll have to save this conversation for another time."

Kara's reaction was swift, or rather, her sense of impending danger had already begun sounding the alarm.

Feeling the immense pressure descending upon Earth, Alex and Kara simultaneously stood up, looking toward the setting sun.

"Darkseid has arrived."

Alex squinted slightly, and he couldn't deny that his heart was pounding.

Since Alex hadn't lowered his voice on purpose, his words sent shivers through Lois and the members of the Suicide Squad nearby.

"What did you say?" Lois turned to Alex, disbelief clear in her expression.

According to the plan, Darkseid was supposed to return to his home base after Clark and the others launched a surprise attack on Apokolips. Lois had never expected that Darkseid would come to Earth personally.

This made no sense at all. Was Darkseid really ignoring the chaos happening back on Apokolips?

But now, neither Alex nor Kara had the mind to answer Lois's questions. Alex's gaze was locked onto the small dark shadow within the setting sun.

Despite the great distance between them, Alex knew that Darkseid was also looking back at him.

"Ashley, I'm leaving this to you. Do everything you can to hold back those Doomsday-like creatures. Be careful," Alex instructed.

The Doomsday-like creatures, weakened by the effects of the red sun, had lost most of their fighting power. Moreover, the Suicide Squad members were each armed with kryptonite weapons, so stalling them shouldn't be an issue.

"I… I understand. You be careful too."

Ashley, a descendant of Spider-Man, had her spider-sense nearly bursting from Darkseid's presence.

Without a word in response, Alex's form shimmered momentarily, and the next second, he and Kara were standing right in front of Darkseid.

Darkseid, arms crossed, showed no reaction to Alex and Kara's sudden arrival. He remained hovering in midair, like a king surveying his territory.

Calmly observing the two before him, Darkseid's expression was neither joyful nor sorrowful.

"So… you're the sorcerer from another world," he said.

With a casual tone that carried unparalleled pressure, his words made Kara tense up, ready for battle at any moment.

"That's me," Alex replied. "It seems you've already figured that out."

"Hmph, a mere projection. Simple tricks, but I must admit, as a dimensional lord, your power is decent."

Darkseid spoke leisurely, his arms still behind his back, leaving himself seemingly wide open, as if he didn't regard the two before him as a threat.

"In my mercy, I offer you a chance. Swear loyalty to me, join Apokolips, and help me conquer the universe. That is the only way you'll live."

Alex chuckled at this.

So, Darkseid was interested in his multiversal-traveling abilities. As expected, a timepad was a highly coveted asset, and any villain who noticed it would want it for themselves.

Darkseid, however, likely didn't yet understand how Alex was traveling between universes. He assumed that in this universe, there couldn't be a way to connect to other universes.

His guess wasn't far off; without Alex's help, even Jason and Black Canary wouldn't have dreamed of finding a way back to the Apokolips war universe.

After a long silence, Darkseid tilted his head slightly, his tone displeased.

"You don't have much time left to decide, sorcerer."

Alex smiled, then formed a hand seal, and a ghostly green flame enveloped him.

"Sorry, I wasn't considering it. It just takes a bit of time to withdraw my projection spell."

With that, the green flame in Alex's hands exploded, forming two magic circles facing Darkseid directly in the distance.
