“Hmm, maybe I should try it first before drawing conclusions,” Night Owl said, holding the baby. He couldn’t sense the target, but that was because he was an ordinary person. The baby, who had already obtained divine power, should be able to see more than him.

Night Owl turned the baby toward the sky, preparing to try and seize the power of the Anti-Monitor and Superman directly here, since God's perception should theoretically be able to cover that area.

However, things are never certain. After all, the god he has is still just an infant. So, to be on the safe side, Night Owl did not target Dark Walker, because if he failed, death might come after him.

“Zanza!” Night Owl shouted.

Meanwhile, the Counter-Monitor and Superman, who had been keeping a close eye on the battlefield, also noticed Night Owl's movements, and with their sharp eyesight, they were absolutely certain that the baby had noticed them.

"Oh no!" Superman shouted.

"Damn it, damn it, damn it! You actually want to steal my energy? Well then, I'll see if you really have the ability!" The Anti-Monitor was furious.

In all his years of traveling through the multiverse, he had never seen such an unreasonable being, capable of easily stealing the energy of others with just a single sentence.

Lightning was imminent, and the anti-monitor's mind raced as he tried to find a way out of the predicament.

'Such exaggerated abilities shouldn't exist in the multiverse. Mortal energy is one thing, but gods are special beings; how could they be so easily influenced!'

'No, that's not right. Normally it should be like this, but now the reality is turbulent, and the boundary between humans and gods has become blurred. If a human has immense power, they can become a god. Conversely, in this era, a god can also be equivalent to a human with immense power.'

'Damn it! Of all times, this guy stumbled upon such a perfect opportunity… But since this is a natural superpower, he'll definitely be quite rigid before any training. He thinks he can take me down with this level of ability?!'

Chapter 244 Zamza's Departure

The Anti-Monitor summoned a massive antimatter wall in space, far larger than the one that appeared in Gotham City—in fact, there was no comparison whatsoever.

While on Earth, the Anti-Monitor planned to slowly kill the heroes and enjoy the process, so it never used large-scale attacks.

But now things are different. The antimatter he released is now comparable to a continent, and it is still expanding.

"What are you doing!?" Superman was so frightened that he flew over immediately. After all, the Anti-Monitor's posture looked like it was going to blow up the baby along with the entire Earth, so of course he had to stop it.

"Leave me alone, Darkseid's heir!" the Anti-Monitor roared.

"You have to tell me what you're going to do first?" Superman continued to approach the Anti-Monitor. He couldn't help it; the Anti-Monitor had a history of destroying the universe, and he didn't dare gamble on the Anti-Monitor's plans.

Superman grabbed the Anti-Monitor's hand as it was releasing energy, stopping it from continuing its actions, but at that moment, Zamsa's lightning struck.

It first struck the surrounding antimatter energy and then deflected directly. The Antimonitor released this energy not to attack, but to communicate with the antimatter universe.

Once Lightning entered the antimatter universe, it naturally wanted to leave, since its target was not the antimatter universe, and the Antimonitor had already prepared a more 'convenient' path for it.

Earth, the Night Owl had just finished chanting the incantation towards the God of Apokolips in outer space, but he discovered that the lightning had appeared right next to the baby.

boom!

The lightning bolt struck the baby directly, but caused no harm. Instead, it continued to extend into outer space, quickly forming a giant bolt of lightning that stretched across the sky.

Superman was still struck by lightning, and the energy within his body was instantly carried away by the lightning, causing the Omega effect to disappear.

The Anti-Monitor was startled. When the lightning appeared on Superman, he thought he would also be swept up and lose his energy.

"Get out of my way!" The Anti-Monitor grabbed Superman by the shoulder and threw the weakened man far away, then looked at Earth.

Fortunately, Superman is currently outside the atmosphere, where there is even more sunlight than on Earth. It won't be long before he recovers from the weakening period caused by the loss of the Omega effect.

At this moment, the situation on Earth changed drastically again. The baby, who had just been very energetic, suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

Under normal circumstances, the process of Zansha's lightning should be as follows: it appears from the void, strikes the target, takes away the target's energy, and finally falls on the baby himself.

But now, due to the interference of the Anti-Monitor, the lightning passed through the baby first and then struck Superman; now the lightning is about to return to the baby.

However, the path of lightning is completed in an instant; it does not chase or bend. It should be said that it only resembles lightning in appearance, but in essence it is an energy pathway.

If the lightning passes by the baby first, it means that the point of impact has been changed to the upstream of the channel. If the baby is to receive the energy, the energy must flow upstream, which completely violates the original way lightning operates.

Perhaps such interference will not cause any serious consequences in the future, but right now the user is just an infant acting on instinct. He has no idea how to control his superpowers and has suffered a backlash.

The lightning burst from the middle, and a ball of scarlet energy appeared a thousand meters above the ground. That was the Omega effect that Zamsa Lightning had just extracted from Superman. If left unattended, it would probably return to Apokolips in a few minutes.

"Hey, hey, hey, no way." On the ground, Huo Rong Deng Jie muttered, he simply couldn't believe what was happening before his eyes.

It was already unbelievable enough that such an infant could seize divine power, and after the success, everyone believed that this infant was definitely capable of surpassing even universe-level powerhouses.

Before, Huo Rongdeng was already thinking about the wonderful life they could live with this baby, but what did he see now? The baby seemed to be dead.

"No, no, it must be something wrong with me. Let me test it again."

The Calamity Lamp Ring was extremely anxious, constantly scanning the baby's body. Since they appeared on this battlefield, they had offended both sides of the war. Previously, they could be ignored because of the baby's strength, but now that they had lost that power, they would definitely be torn to pieces.

The pale green light lingered on the baby's body for several seconds before the Calamity Lamp Ring had to admit that the baby was dead.

“Night Owl, what should we do now? Do you have any other plans?” Death Storm asked.

“Yes,” Night Owl said.

"Really? What is it?" Johnny Quick asked excitedly.

"That means running!"

As he spoke, Night Owl took out a device that looked a lot like the Mother Box and prepared to activate it directly.

He was certainly used to preparing multiple plans, but even plans have different levels of quality. Someone like the baby Zansha was a rare find, and finding a replacement was not easy. Moreover, given such a significant advantage, it was already quite prudent of him to have thought of a backup plan in advance.

The anti-monitor, far away in outer space, burst into laughter three times upon seeing the baby die: "Hahaha, this is what happens when you dare to threaten me. And you, Night Owl, you managed to escape this time, but you can't escape forever. I will catch up with you sooner or later."

The anti-surveillance agent naturally didn't want to let Night Owl go, but he was currently a little too far away and might not be able to successfully stop the teleportation.

"Damn it, Night Owl! You're not planning to run away by yourself, are you? Take us with you!" Johnny Quick reacted the fastest. He noticed something was wrong: the teleportation device in Night Owl's hand seemed to be targeting only Night Owl.

“This isn’t a Mother Box; it’s not suitable for multi-person teleportation. You’d better figure out a way to leave quickly, or you won’t be able to leave when the Anti-Monitor returns to Earth,” Night Owl said.

However, at that moment, a red light suddenly struck, shattering the teleportation device in Night Owl's hand in two.

“My ally, you’ve brought so many people here, and you haven’t done anything yet. Why are you in such a hurry to leave?”

“Superb,” Night Owl said, staring at the direction from which the red light was coming.

The one who unleashed this attack was naturally Karl, who had already restored his energy.

Baby Zamsha is different from Luther Zamsha. He will drain the energy from his enemies, but he will not directly take away the power itself. In other words, the energy can be replenished again.

Karl is not short of kryptonite right now, so losing energy is a minor problem for him. At most, it will put a greater burden on his cells if he enters an overload state continuously.

However, he hasn't ingested thousands of tons of kryptonite yet; he just casually ate a large piece, which should be considered his usual enhanced state.

Chapter 245 The End of the Alliance

The Zamza Baby's lightning struck three gods, causing Carl's original power to dissipate. The Dark Walker was separated and began hunting the Flash, while the Omega Effect, lacking a host, floated in the sky as a large mass of energy, about to return to Apokolips.

The Anti-Monitor and Superman both ran into space to avoid lightning, but now Superman has lost his powers while the Anti-Monitor is still unharmed.

No one wanted this to happen. Night Owl wanted to escape immediately, but Carl appeared and destroyed his teleportation device.

"As expected, I can't count on you guys. You're simply not cut out for anything. I even gave you a chance." Karl said to the Ultimate Alliance with considerable disappointment.

The deal between Night Owl and the Amazons was conducted very discreetly. To avoid revealing any flaws, he even waited until the battle had begun before actually making contact with the Super Queen.

At the cost of Queen Super's life, Night Owl forcibly compressed the original four-month gestation period into half an hour, and also erased the baby's intelligence after birth to prevent the baby from becoming uncontrollable.

This indeed allowed him to keep his plans very secret; no one discovered them before the battle began, until he arrived on Earth with the baby.

But for Karl, even if Zamsa hadn't appeared, he was always on guard. In fact, Karl would have been a little disappointed if Zamsa hadn't appeared, because then it would have been difficult to find the last piece of the puzzle to solidify reality.

The prophecy says this baby will become a god. Although he has now absorbed Karl's power and become the God of Power, if things had continued along the original trajectory, the baby would have been possessed by Darkseid after absorbing the Omega Effect.

After Darkseid's death, the newly emerging gods ensured that reality would not collapse, but they were still not quite there yet to ensure that reality would be completely stable, because Superman's resistance had resulted in the Apokolips Gods being incomplete.

Karl deliberately let Zamsa's lightning strike him first, wanting to escape the battlefield and let things develop in the original direction, ideally allowing Darkseid to be resurrected before letting the baby absorb the Anti-Monitor's energy.

When Darkseid is resurrected, reality will be completely stable, and he will no longer be a new threat.

Because no matter how much energy Darkseid has after being reborn, his body is still like that of an infant, and he can't exert even a fraction of his strength.

If he wants to grow up quickly, he must absorb special energy like the Anti-Life Equation, rather than the Kryptonian energy or antimatter energy of Karl and the Anti-Monitor.

In other words, if Night Owl can really clear the field, then the Anti-Monitor will become weak, the baby will be possessed, and in the end, the only enemy left on the battlefield will be a Darkseid baby, which will undoubtedly be much easier to deal with.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. The Anti-Monitor was not only unharmed, but the Omega Effect, which housed Darkseid's consciousness, was also out of control. It can be said that the Ultimate Alliance's trip not only failed to bring them any benefits, but actually made things worse.

“As expected, you’re not planning to let us go,” Night Owl said to Carl.

"Hmph, you should have expected this, since you always have a bad feeling about things," Karl said.

“Indeed, I never trusted you, just as you never trusted me. Our cooperation ended when Earth-3 was destroyed.”

Night Owl believes in Carl's doomsday prophecy, but he never trusts Carl. In his view, Carl is out of place on Earth 3, not only in terms of his abilities, but also in his daily conduct and way of dealing with people, as if he didn't grow up on this Earth at all.

Their cooperation was based on the threat posed by the anti-monitors. Once this was over, they would no longer need each other. In order to prevent Carl from having the opportunity to eliminate him, Night Owl chose to strike first, but unfortunately, he failed.

“You should know my habits. Your only way to survive is to obey me from beginning to end,” Karl said, his eyes lighting up.

Night Owl swallowed hard. Now that the baby was dead, even if Karl was no longer in Overload mode, dealing with them would be a piece of cake. He could only hope that the information he had gathered was correct.

The owl emblem on Night Owl's belt split in two automatically, and a bright blue light enveloped the entire area.

The red energy in Karl's eyes dimmed at an extremely fast pace, like a fire that had been doused with water.

"...Um, how did you find out about this?" Karl said weakly. This time he wasn't faking it; the energy within his body was genuinely suppressed.

The owl did not answer, but went straight for the Möbius Chair.

He had no intention of explaining. Although the blue light seemed to have a good effect, when a Kryptonian was truly motivated to kill, a small piece of Kryptonite was not enough to stop him, even if he used the device on his belt to release the radiation of Kryptonite at full power.

Carl's weakness to sunlight was no secret on Earth-3, after all, he had been avoiding sunlight until the protective force field was in place.

But precisely because this weakness is so obvious, and the defenses in this area are the most comprehensive, Night Owl knows that the obvious method of sunlight will definitely not work, so if he wants to deal with Carl, he has to find other methods.

Not long ago, he finally learned about another weakness of the Earth's 3Kryptonians from a new god named Metron, and obtained that item.

Just as Superman's power comes from the sun, yet he fears the red sun, Karl's power comes from Kryptonite, but there is also Kryptonite that can weaken him, namely Blue Kryptonite.

Night Owl weakened Carl with Blue Kryptonite, but wisely refrained from pursuing him, instead targeting Batman's position.

The situation on the battlefield kept changing after the baby appeared, and whenever Batman had a question about something, the chair would stuff all the relevant knowledge into Batman's brain in great detail, which finally pushed Batman to his limit.

Wonder Woman noticed something was wrong and quickly used her Lasso of Truth to forcibly pull Batman off the chair, meaning the Möbius Chair is now empty.

"If Metron is right, I should be able to use the Möbius Chair to get out of here," Night Owl thought, and continued moving toward it.

But just as he was a few meters away from the chair, Night Owl suddenly clutched his chest, where a large hole had been burned by the heat of his gaze.

Night Owl was right. The effect of a small piece of blue kryptonite was indeed minimal, even less than he had imagined. Karl could also unleash thermal vision, which, even when weakened, was something his uniform couldn't defend against.
