I, Superman, the Supreme Commander

Fusion of the universe, sea of ​​origin.

Within the seal of the crystal ball, the figure shrouded in gray fog suddenly opened his eyes, and two red lights penetrated the gray fog and shot towards the depths of the Sea of ​​Origin like lightning.

With the rapid awakening and return of some high-dimensional power, the entire sea of ​​origin began to shake.

The light flickered, and countless small worlds collapsed and shattered.

"what happened?"

"Why did the seal suddenly break?!"

"Quick, stop him!"

The Lord in Yellow screamed and urged his divine power to be injected into the sealing crystal ball.

Dr. Manhattan also tried his best to strengthen the seal.

The two little gods Franklin, who were just small fish and shrimp nearby, also hurried to help.

Four divine lights were injected into the sealing crystal ball together.

However, with a crackling sound, cracks appeared uncontrollably on the surface of the crystal ball, spreading and expanding.

Dazzling golden light shone through the cracks.

It pierced through the surrounding space and forcibly suppressed all the light of the already colorful Sea of ​​Origin.

Half a breath later, accompanied by a loud bang that split the sky and the earth, a golden wave of air swept around, pushing the four gods away violently and rushing them thousands of miles away.

A shining figure descended from the Sea of ​​Origin, standing in mid-air with his fists clenched, the wide red cloak behind him swaying constantly.

The intense golden light emanating from the body pushed away the light from the surrounding Sea of ​​Origin, creating an area where only golden light existed.

Countless small worlds were shattered in an instant.

Like bubbles, they burst under the golden light.

"Traveler..."

The Lord in Yellow gnashed his teeth, angry and frightened.

Transmission lights flickered all around, and several alarmed fusion universe managers appeared, looking solemnly at the traverser who broke the seal and escaped.

Zhang Hong looked at them calmly, his eyes passing through them and looking at the existence hidden in the depths of the void.

He saw the thing that Superman-Prime had used against him.

And the true face of that thing...

[So that's what happened... No wonder I didn't have the strength to fight back back then...]

Zhang Hong suddenly realized.

"Everyone, while his strength has not yet fully recovered, activate the ultimate divine weapon together to suppress this official!"

Dr. Manhattan yelled, his voice echoing across the Sea of ​​Origin.

A group of gods raised their hands, divine light shone brightly, and colorful divine light was injected into the void. They worked together to activate the ultimate artifact left behind by the three supreme beings - [Superman Core].

Suddenly, the Sea of ​​Origin began to vibrate even more violently.

A huge golden sphere appeared around the crowd, surrounding Zhang Hong and the gods.

This is a strange sphere composed of seven layers of hollow concentric spheres. Under the urging of the gods, it gradually condenses from a virtual shadow and becomes clear.

The sphere was made of some kind of gold-like metal, shining brightly, and its surface was strangely covered with countless human figures.

Upon closer inspection, they were actually men with similar clothing and appearance, with a striking S logo on their chests, embedded on the surface of a golden sphere like a statue.

——Superman is Superman.

They are the missing supermen in countless parallel worlds of the fusion universe. They were all captured and refined into a divine weapon by some strange means.

An ultimate artifact that integrates countless superhuman powers from the multiverse, the [Superman Core].

It was with the help of this magical artifact that Supreme Superman suppressed the power of [Savior Superman] in Zhang Hong, even though Zhang Hong's power came from the system.

With the blessing of Supreme Superman's own system power and the power that can be regarded as the origin of the entire fused universe, this power belonging to Superman was forcibly targeted and suppressed.

The planet-sized structure is densely packed with various versions of Superman, all of whom have become part of the sphere.

It reminded Zhang Hong of the setting of the Wall of Origin in DC comics.

The image of the "Morty Barrier" created by Dr. Rick in the Rick and Morty animation flashed through his mind.

The seven spheres also correspond to seven emotions... the seven deadly sins...

Zhang Hong has already seen that this thing is a fusion of the wisdom of several worlds. It is an achievement of the highest technology, magic, and power. It is by no means simple.

Sure enough, as the gods urged, thousands of colorful rays burst out from the [Superman Core], piercing through the golden light protecting Zhang Hong like tentacles, ignoring Zhang Hong's iron body, and directly piercing into his body and even into his soul.

Lock up his body, soul and superhuman strength tightly.

"You didn't expect that, time traveler. The three supreme beings had already imagined that you could escape, and they deliberately left behind means for us to restrain you."

"This Superman Core is the nemesis of all Supermen. Even if you have the power of origin, you cannot fight against the hatred of billions of Supermen."

"Go ahead and capture it!"

The villain shouted triumphantly.

Zhang Hong's face remained calm, allowing the power of the [Superman Core] to act on himself. His calm voice penetrated time and space and reached the ears of the gods.

"This thing is really powerful. Unfortunately, you all overlooked one thing."

Seeing Zhang Hong's calm demeanor, the gods felt that the situation was not good.

But he felt that Zhang Hong was bluffing, so he activated the magic weapon with even greater force, trying to suppress the power on Zhang Hong faster.

But Zhang Hong's next words were like a thunderbolt, piercing the minds of the gods.

A strange and pure white light appeared on Zhang Hong's body. The white light actually permeated the colorful tentacles that locked around his body, and in turn quickly spread towards the core sphere of Superman. This incomprehensible scene stunned all the gods.

Zhang Hong's voice penetrated the universe, "You have forgotten that even if they are dominated and controlled by you, every superman still has hope in his heart that cannot be erased."

Superman, the origin of all superheroes, has symbolized hope since the moment he was created.

Hope is the purest essence of all superhumans.

Zhang Hong regained his strength from the ten thousand year seal in the Dreamland with the help of the [Light of Hope]. His understanding of the power of hope has already reached an incredible level.

He also gained insight into the weakness of Superman's core.

——These superheroes were not completely willing to be captured. Every superhero has more or less hope in his heart, even the most evil ones.

Zhang Hong sensed the light of hope from the existence of super people.

He used the light of hope in himself to communicate with Superman's light of hope. The moment of contact, he felt the consciousness transmitted from billions of supermen, which was the remaining kindness of the supermen.

[Incarnation of hope, take our hope and save the world! ]

The supermen gave all their hope to Zhang Hong.

At this moment, Zhang Hong obtained a key to communicate with all Supermen. He injected his own power into the Superman Core without hesitation. With the help of the Supermen's kindness, he seized control of the Superman Core.

Although it was only a brief moment, Zhang Hong did not hesitate and directly activated the artifact to self-destruct.

The superhumans who were imprisoned in the divine weapon and whose souls could never be reincarnated were liberated from their eternal cage.

"stop!"

"You'll destroy the entire fusion universe if you do this!"

The gods shouted in shock and anger.

Zhang Hong sensed that they were indeed not lying. Superman was the core of the fusion universe. When this artifact was created, it was convenient for the integration of the origin of the universe. The three were a duality.

If the Superman core is destroyed, the Supermen will gain their freedom but also lose their lives, and the fused universe will also be destroyed.

However, Zhang Hong remained unmoved.

Ten thousand years of experience in the dreamland had made him understand one truth.

That is, sometimes in order to save the world, you must destroy others.

That's the case at this moment.

In order to save his Earth of origin, Superman's core must be destroyed, even if it means destroying the entire Fusion Universe, countless worlds and lives.

At this time, Zhang Hong's heart was as hard as stone.

He took the initiative to expand his own field of power, extending his power to the collapsing fusion universe, like a hungry beast, madly devouring this rapidly collapsing world.

"Let your destruction serve as nourishment for me to regain my strength."

The soul and material energy of the fused world were plundered and devoured frantically by Zhang Hong.

Along with the destruction, the power of hope also grew stronger than ever before. The desire of countless creatures for survival and the future turned into the light of hope and was absorbed by Zhang Hong.

The characteristics of [Savior Superman] were activated, and Zhang Hong's strength continued to increase. Amid the wailing of countless creatures, the incomplete system power further merged with him, and the strength in his body was also recovering rapidly.

Finally, with a flicker of light, the last ray of light in the fusion universe went out and completely turned into nothingness.

Zhang Hong, who swallowed the entire universe, is even more powerful than before he was sealed.

In addition, his soul, which has been tempered by the light of hope of hundreds of millions of supermen and has been unprecedentedly clear after thousands of years of refinement, knows the origins of all his powers and has seen through all the mysteries.

Zhang Hong stood still in the void. The raging chaotic storm was like a breeze on his face, nothing to him.

Zhang Hong couldn't help but tremble with excitement.

Now, after going through so much hardship, he can finally go home.

However, another imminent problem faced Zhang Hong.

The damaged system has lost the time-travel function and the coordinates of the origin world. How can he return to the origin earth?
