I, the anti-superman, have hacked into the chat group.

“I surrender,” Otto said. He couldn’t possibly create new Kryptonite under the enemy’s nose; surrender was the only way out.

"Where will you send me, to a prison in some country? I remember you don't kill people, right?"

"No, you're wrong again. You're a robot."

As Karl spoke, he crushed Otto's Soul Steel head into a pulp.

The headless Otto fell to the ground. Karl shook off the metal stuck to his hands, but this was just the beginning.

He knew that Otto had many spare bodies, and killing the Otto in front of him would not kill him, because that was definitely not his main consciousness.

Karl didn't intend to let Otto live any longer. The other party was too good at causing trouble, so it was better to kill him. After all, there was no need to keep him alive for the New Year.

After making the decision, Carl began sorting through the spoils of war.

Chapter 143 The Universe Has Arrived

“Otto said that you were created from the core of the Herrscher of Reason and contain a vast amount of knowledge. Considering your performance in the battle just now, you should have self-awareness, right, Void Treasury.”

Karl said this while looking at Otto's body, but Otto's body remained motionless.

Karl waited for 10 seconds, then said, "Well, if you don't come out soon, I'm going to burn this body. Anyway, leaving it here is just polluting the environment."

"Let's talk this out. This city is already in such a state, what's the point of talking about pollution?"

No sooner had Karl finished speaking than golden liquid metal emerged from Otto's chest.

It solidified into a square structure with sharp edges and corners, emitting the same sound as Otto.

"Hello Mr. Superman, as you can see, I am just a harmless key of God. Please don't burn me. I am a tool and have no subjective agreement with Otto's plan."

This doesn't really matter. Karl doesn't care about the Void Archives' ideas, as long as the other party is useful to him.

“By the way, could you change your voice? It’s really annoying to hear Otto’s voice all the time,” Karl said.

Void Treasury remained silent for a few seconds, then a melodious female voice rang out: "How about this?"

“Sounds good. Whose voice is that?” Carl asked.

“It’s Kallen Kaslana’s,” Void Archives replied in Kallen’s voice.

"If you're not satisfied, I can keep changing it. As long as I have enough voiceprint data, I can imitate anyone's voice."

Karl waved his hand: "No need, this one is fine, as long as it's not Otto's voice."

“Since Otto uploaded his consciousness into the machine, he probably wouldn’t let the main consciousness run around, so he should still be alive, right?” Karl continued.

“Uh… okay, you really did figure it out. Otto did keep quite a few body backups,” Void Treasury admitted.

"Then I won't allow you to continue helping him."

Void Treasury replied, "That might be a bit difficult. My underlying logic is that the leader is the smartest person in the world fighting against the Honkai. In other words, my user is currently Otto, and unless he dies, it cannot be replaced at this time."

Well, it seems there's another reason to kill Otto.

Karl absolutely must acquire the Void Treasury, since it possesses the ability to convert Honkai energy into Kryptonite. With it, Karl will never lack Kryptonite again.

Karl had already used up more than half of the kryptonite he brought from Krypton to Earth. Although he later obtained a few more through chat groups, Karl still used it very frugally.

With the help of the Void Archives, Karl could practically say he would never have to worry about kryptonite again.

Sunlight is radiation, while kryptonite is solid. A piece of kryptonite the size of a human head would be enough for Karl to use for more than ten years, so the power of the Void Treasury can definitely meet Karl's needs.

Karl took out the Dragon King's spatial box and said to the Void Treasury, "Since you can't change your master for the time being, you should at least stay in here from now on, otherwise I can't keep you here."

Void Treasury replied shortly afterward, "It seems I have no choice, and the conditions are quite generous; it's just to temporarily preserve me."

It turned back into liquid metal and then flowed into the space box.

Karl, in high spirits, tossed the box containing the Void Treasury up and down, and said, "I'm really lucky. The Divine Key is much more useful than I thought. I should have killed Otto sooner, but it's about time now. I'll go and shut down the Second Divine Key first, and then go to Destiny to kill Otto."

Karl got up and flew into the laboratory at the distant base.

He pushed the door open and said, "The experiment is over. You must close the portal."

"Superman?"

Most people were just a little slow to grasp the concept, but they showed no sign of closing the portal.

To them, the situation is like a character from a comic book suddenly appearing in reality and telling them to put down their work. The researchers won't just obey.

But it didn't really matter. Karl was just informing them. After a quick glance at their work, he had already learned how to operate the equipment here, including how to observe the Second Divine Key.

"Excuse me, could you move aside?"

Carl spoke and quickly bypassed everyone, then took over the main control panel.

"What are you trying to do? This experiment involves parallel worlds, you can't just do anything!"

The researchers were somewhat anxious, but they were all just scientists with no fighting ability. After seeing Karl's speed just now, they realized that they couldn't do anything to him, and verbally questioning him was already their limit.

Karl typed the command to disable the Divine Key on the control panel while browsing the data on the screen.

"These parallel worlds are quite abundant, there are so many of them, we haven't been able to find them all after exploring for so long. And so Teyvat and Honkai are indeed in the same multiverse system?"

"So that means I've lost one more option. Choosing Honkai or Teyvat makes no difference."

"Wait, what is this?"

Karl suddenly noticed that the screen showed the Second Key of God had detected a new universe, but this universe was clearly different from the previous one.

The entire universe before this was closely connected with the Imaginary Tree of Imaginary Space, like fruits hanging on a tree.

However, this newly emerged universe is different; it is independent and has no connection with the Tree of Imaginary Numbers, just as if it came from outside the multiverse.

"No way, could it be that the Imaginary Tree really pulled over a universe belonging to DC?"

Carlton immediately stopped the process of closing the Divine Key. If the other party really was from the DC universe, then it meant that it had entered the detection range and was not far from here. Whether to keep the portal open or not would not make much difference. It was better to probe the other party's situation more.

Karl controlled the detection function of the Second Divine Key and focused it towards that unknown universe.

"It feels more and more like DC's universe; the data looks very similar to my universe."

Carl was in a bad situation. The data from the other party was extremely similar to the data he had previously obtained from probing his own universe, which meant that a DC universe had indeed been pulled over.

"This scourge has really come; we must find a way to get it away from here."

That being said, Karl didn't actually have any good methods. After all, the opponent was an entire universe, and the energy required to shake the universe was terrifying.

"Something is coming again. It seems to be from the DC universe. It's sending something here."

Carl quickly performed a probe, and a peculiar symbol appeared on the screen.

The circular symbol is surrounded by several stripes, with an inverted triangle below it, as if supporting everything.

Chapter 144 The First Arrival of the Black Lantern Ring

"Black Light Ring".

Carl recognized the symbol; it was the symbol of the lamp ring.

The lamp ring represents the power of the emotional spectrum, which has seven colors and seven emotions.

The red light for anger, the orange light for greed, the yellow light for fear, the green light for will, the blue light for mercy, the blue light for hope, and the purple light for love.

But just as there are usually five of the Four Heavenly Kings, there are more than seven kinds of so-called seven colors of light.

There is also the even more powerful White Lamp of Life, and the Black Lamp of Death.

Karl cursed inwardly, "Damn it! It's one thing to bring over a universe, but to bring over a universe that's going through a crisis? Does he think his life isn't exciting enough? Even if he really had to bring one over, couldn't he have brought over a comedic universe like TTG?"

In fact, Karl was wrong about one thing. The Honkai consciousness is not human, and its demands are different from those of humans. What it wants is to make the Imaginary Tree more prosperous.

Moreover, the universe wasn't pulled over; rather, the Tree of Imaginary Numbers was guided by the Honkai consciousness to move closer.

The Tree of Imaginary Numbers itself has no consciousness; all its actions can be attributed to natural changes. As long as the universe has reached this point, the Tree of Imaginary Numbers has already grown strong.

The significance of civilization to the Tree of Imaginary Numbers is that it acts as an observer of the Sea of ​​Quanta. Only conscious beings can influence the Sea of ​​Quanta in this way, which is an added benefit, not a necessity.

Therefore, the Tree of Imaginary Numbers simply sprouted branches from an external, peripheral universe without knowing its specific state.

The disaster of the dark is always sudden, and the current situation is an unexpected event for everyone.

However, the universe becoming lifeless might only be a special state for the universe itself, but it would be an absolute catastrophe for life within it.

Karl quickly shut down the second divine key; there was no need to watch any further.

"Everyone, get ready for battle. If you don't want to die, bring out all your forces immediately," Karl said, turning to the people in the laboratory.

The group exchanged glances, interpreting it as Karl threatening them.

He then said, "All the troops have been sent out. The only security personnel for this experiment are Durandal and a small number of mechs. However, since the experiment has run into problems, she will be back soon. Then you won't be able to continue being so arrogant."

Karl didn't explain, but said in a deep voice, "Then hurry up."

At the same time, he opened the chat group and sent a message to Bronya.

[Superman]: Bronya, it's an emergency! The Blacklights have invaded. Everyone, find a way to protect yourselves. I'll be there soon.

After sending the message, Karl had to leave the lab before Bronya could reply, because the Black Lantern Ring had arrived.

Closing the portal created by the Second Divine Key had absolutely no effect on them, because the interior of the Black Lantern Ring consisted of countless tiny wormholes.

This allows them to traverse the universe with the help of their source, the Black Death Emperor; in the comics, a small number of rings have invaded the universe where Superman Supreme resides.

At this moment, they are heading towards the Collapsed Universe.

Carl flew outside the base and witnessed countless black light rings falling from the sky.

This city ruin, covered in yellow sand, looks like it's being battered by a black downpour.

Carl unleashed his thermal vision, but there were simply too many of the light rings, and each one was extremely agile. Carl only managed to block a small portion of them, and the black rain still began to fall.

One by one, black rings burrowed straight into the ground, and then the entire city suddenly began to shake.

"resurrection!"

Countless withered hands rose from the ground, each adorned with a black ring—the mark of those who had passed away.

They were killed in a cataclysmic event, but now they all come back to life under the influence of the Black Lantern Ring. Those who hold the Green Lantern Ring are called Green Lanterns, while these people should be called—Black Lantern Corpses.

With the help of the Black Lantern Ring, these Black Lantern Corpses took flight and then suddenly attacked Karl.
