The rate of annihilation at the edge of the dome is accelerating.

The dark red decomposition line had already engulfed the entire outermost pine forest and was shrinking inward at a speed of thirty meters per second.

On the ground, Qian Chuanzi and several young superhumans were so frightened that they collapsed to the ground.

Old Liao led his men in a desperate retreat toward the central area, but everyone knew that it didn't matter where they ran, the dome was sealed off.

"Steve! Wayne!" Tony yelled into the comms, "Can the crossbeam blast through the dome?"

"We tried it." Wayne's voice was heavy. "The light could reach it, but the dome absorbed the energy directly."

"The essence of the Omega stance is annihilation; giving it energy is like accelerating it."

Dead end.

The lives of thousands of people within a ten-kilometer radius were locked in a dark red cage.

"Six minutes." Jarvis updated the countdown.

Darkseid hovered in the center of the dome, its dark red body blending seamlessly with the surrounding dome.

He closed his eyes, his expression calm.

For him, the battle was over.

All that's left is to wait.

"Li Ang!" Tony yelled towards the stage, "Are you fucking still sitting there?"

Li Ang sat in a recliner; the popcorn bucket was almost empty.

He looked up at the dark red sky, then looked down at the system panel.

[Omega Effect Underlying Code Analysis Progress: 87.3%]

"Almost there," Li Ang muttered. "Don't rush me, let me finish watching this play first."

"What are you looking at! We're going to die!" Tony roared.

"Let's see how you guys win."

Li Ang sat up straight in the recliner, a new can of iced cola appearing in his hand at some point.

He pulled the tab, took a swig, and then pointed to Darkseid, who was resting with his eyes closed in the sky.

"Just a heads-up, he's now become part of the dome, his defenses are maxed out, and neither physical nor energy attacks are effective against him."

"Then how do we fight?"

"His essence is the end." Li Ang took another sip of cola. "Then what is the natural enemy of the end?"

Tony paused for a second.

"start?"

"No," Li Ang shook his head.

Clark floated over, his body covered in wounds, his face pale but his mind still working.

"Hope," Clark said.

"That's not right either."

"What is that?!" Thor cried out anxiously.

Li Ang put down his cola and pointed a finger at the sky.

"Going back, returning to zero, is about bringing everything back to its origin."

All eyes turned in one direction at the same time.

Loki.

Gold Experience Requiem.

"Wait." Loki took three steps back, waving his hands in front of him. "I tried, it didn't work on him! His soul dimension is too high; the Zeroing ability can't penetrate it!"

"Your target for resetting him to zero is him personally." Li Ang's lips curled slightly. "Who told you to reset him to zero?"

Loki blinked.

"Reset the connection between him and the dome," Li Ang continued, "rewind this Omega Termination Position to its state before it was released."

"It's not about denying him as a person, but about denying his behavior."

Loki's expression changed from confusion to sudden realization.

"The goal of resetting behavior to zero... is not the existence of Darkseid, but the act of releasing the position itself."

"Can you do it?" Wayne pressed.

Loki's lips slowly curved into a smile.

That was the malice-filled smile unique to the god of lies.

"I don't know, I've never tried it."

"But it sounds really interesting."

The golden figure of Gold Experience Requiem emerges behind Loki.

The golden stand-in's empty eyes stared at the dark red dome, and its index finger slowly rose.

"Five minutes," Jarvis said coldly.

"That's enough." Loki took a deep breath and then raised his right hand.

"Back to square one."

Golden light shot out from the Stand's fingertips, but this time it wasn't directed at Darkseid himself.

The light shone on the inner wall of the dome.

The moment the golden light touched the dark red dome, the two colors clashed fiercely at the point of contact.

Dark red is devouring, gold is reversing.

Beads of sweat appeared on Loki's forehead.

Resetting a person to zero is far more complex than resetting the person themselves.

Because behavior is abstract, there is no entity to which it can be anchored.

He needs to use his mental power to perceive the coordinates of the action of "releasing the position" on the timeline, and then break the causal chain at that coordinate point.

The dome was trembling.

A small golden spot appeared on the dark red light screen, and then the spot expanded to form a golden ring with a diameter of three meters.

Inside the ring, the dark red color disappeared.

What was revealed was the normal night sky.

A hole appeared in the dome.

"It works!" Tony shouted.

But Darkseid opened his eyes, his pure dark red pupils locking onto Loki.

Darkseid's voice echoed within the dome: "On the 108th planet I conquered, there was a god much like you."

"He was also good at tricks, and died a dignified death."

Omega rays shot out from Darkseid's eyes.

The target was none other than Loki, who was doing everything he could to maintain his ability to reset to zero.

"Protect Loki!"

Wayne's commands were issued almost reflexively.

"I'll do it!"

A silver-gray figure appeared in front of Loki.

Peter Parker.

The spider sensed the alarm before the rays were emitted.

His body instinctively leaped in front of Loki, crossing his arms to protect himself.

"Peter! No..." Tony's voice cracked.

boom!

The dark red ray struck the outer layer of the mech, and the armor shattered after only a second.

"I am coming!"

The Punisher, in his dead state, pulled Peter and Loki away from the ray trajectory at the same time.

The three of them rolled together and fell to the ground.

The ray passed three centimeters above their heads and struck a distant hilltop.

The mountaintop evaporated.

"Thank...thank you, uncle."

Peter lay on the ground, his voice trembling.

"Stop talking nonsense and get up."

Frank picked him up.

Loki rolled on the ground, got up, and without pausing, raised his hands to the dome again.

A second golden beam of light shot out.

The golden opening in the dome continued to expand.

Five meters, eight meters, twelve meters.

"He's wearing you down," Darkseid said calmly. "Your mental strength has its limits, and my dome is powered by the core of Apokolips. You won't last until the end."

Loki gritted his teeth and didn't reply.

His mental energy was indeed being consumed rapidly, and the outline of his Stand had begun to flicker.

"But I don't need to hold out until the end," Loki said through gritted teeth.

He only needs to make a hole big enough for some people to rush in.

Moreover, he has more than just himself.

"Come out and help me!"

At Loki's command, young Loki and his companions appeared.

The group placed their hands on Loki's real body, and the clone gradually solidified.

"And now, Darkseid, what do you think?"
