American Comics: Multiverse of Madness

29. The Sword Hanging Overhead.

Alex's previously relaxed expression instantly tensed as he turned around.

Assemble the Justice League!?

During General Zod's invasion, there wasn't even a hint of a Justice League. Batman was completely unprepared, feeling utterly powerless as he watched the battle from the ground. The Flash, despite his best efforts, managed to save only one child.

As for Wonder Woman and Aquaman, one was hiding among the crowd without showing herself, and the other was drinking by the sea, not participating in the battle at all. And that young football player wasn't even Cyborg yet—he hadn't been transformed by the Mother Box.

The most crucial point is that, without any external intervention, no one would know the name 'Justice League,' let alone think to assemble its members in advance since that was something that would happen in the future. So, the fact that person could say such a thing indicated that they, like Alex, weren't natives of this universe!

Twins?

No.

They weren't twins at all.

They were counterparts from two different timelines, or rather, an intervener from another timeline, disrupting this original timeline and causing it to evolve into part of the multiverse. And there are very few people in the DC universe capable of doing that, given that interfering with the timeline is an extremely dangerous thing.

However, it so happens that there is one such individual who frequently engages in this sort of behavior, especially during major events, often being brought in either as a sacrificial pawn or to tie up loose ends.

Even more coincidentally, in Alex's memory, before his crossing, this exact scene appeared in the DC movie universe!

Alex stared intently at the two young figures walking away, his body felt numb..

This isn't the *Man of Steel* timeline at all. This timeline is the damned Flashpoint universe from the *Flash* movie!

This Flashpoint universe was created because the Flash, Barry Allen, traveled back in time to save his mother, thus altering the original timeline. And because this timeline was artificially created, it resulted in an extremely unstable world destined for destruction.

Just like a towering tree with many branches, countless multiverses are continuously being born and evolving. However, if there are too many, it can easily lead to chaos, causing two or more universes to collide and be destroyed.

Hence, in the development phase of the multiverse, many universes are doomed to destruction to ensure the safety of the other multiverses. They are like pruned branches, destined to be discarded.

Most of these universes are born and destroyed according to a certain rule, but if someone intervenes in the timeline's development, it can instantly disrupt the linear progression, creating an extremely unstable and uncontrollable parallel world. Those who possess such power are few, but once they act, the consequences are terrifying.

Their interference with the timeline creates a time paradox, a pivot, an 'absolute time node' formed by personal actions, which can never be broken, and that universe is destined for destruction.

The Flash's seemingly small act of saving his mother formed an independent pivot, directly altering the entire universe, not just the future but also rewriting the past.

This led to a universe where Zeus didn't father Wonder Woman, Aquaman's parents never met, and Superman was intercepted before leaving Krypton, never landing on Earth. Instead, his cousin Supergirl arrived.

All of this was due to the Flash altering the timeline, and this world would inevitably be destroyed when General Zod arrived on Earth. Because at this moment, no one could stand up to defeat General Zod. There was no one on Earth capable of stopping him.

Watching the two Barry Allens gradually disappear around the corner, Alex's heart couldn't calm down. He had thought he had a few years to plan, but reality had caught him off guard.

From the time General Zod appeared on Earth to when he killed Supergirl and took the Codex, then activated the World Engine to transform Earth, it would all happen in just a few days.

Clearly, there wasn't much time left for Alex.

"Damn it! Can't I just get some rest for once?" Alex punched the wall forcefully. Realizing his current predicament made his head ache even more.

He didn't chase after the two Barry Allens because even if he found them, it wouldn't change the fact that these events were destined to happen. The most important thing now was to find a way to leave this universe.

"I've only been crossing worlds for a short time, and it's been nothing but running and running away. Seriously." Alex returned to the hotel and saw Pietro already asleep. He lay down on the other bed.

Not having considered it properly before crossing, Alex hadn't managed to bring anything that could enhance his combat power from the ruined Marvel universe. The only useful thing, the Iron Man suit, had been crushed by President X.

Reflecting on this, Alex decided he wouldn't make another unprepared crossing.

Though this world was doomed to be destroyed by General Zod, it still had many valuable items. If he could take some of them, he would have a better chance of protecting himself. But before that, to avoid dying halfway through his plans, Alex decided to get a good night's sleep.

Time passed by bit by bit.

General Zod's warning to Earth drew attention from countries worldwide. This was the first time people personally experienced an alien invasion, sparking immense discussion across the globe.

Many thought they could hand over the alien to the Kryptonians to secure peace. However, more people were curious if there were more aliens living on Earth if such an alien existed among them.

No one could answer this question, not even Alex, who couldn't guarantee the presence of Martian Manhunter or Green Lantern on Earth.

If this universe were destined for destruction, then potential heroes, like Aquaman and Wonder Woman, would never appear or be born. Meanwhile, countries worldwide began frantically searching for the Kryptonian General Zod mentioned. But after more than ten hours, there were no leads.

The sun gradually rose, its rays spilling over the earth. But this seemingly beautiful weather brought no comfort, for General Zod's ship had entered Earth's atmosphere.

Like a sharp blade, it hung over everyone's head.
