"Manufacture?! How is that possible?"

Diana looked astonished and couldn't believe it.

After all, if they could really manufacture kryptonite, then the gods and so-called superheroes, even if physically far inferior to the Doom Demon, could at least inflict effective damage and kill.

"That's not something you need to worry about." Saying that, Fogrem stepped out of the interrogation room and saw four technicians approaching, and glanced at Diana's empty, missing right arm, advising:

"What you need to do now is cooperate with our personnel to assist in your treatment and recovery; you are a warrior, and a warrior's destination is the battlefield."

After saying that, Fogrem left directly, disappearing around the corner of the hallway after just a few steps.

As for Diana…

This "demigod" silently followed the four technicians, heading in the opposite direction from where Fogrem left, preparing to receive Umbrella's most cutting-edge biological treatment.

Universe 07 and Universe 05 are very similar; on the Earths of both universes, there are many so-called superheroes.

And Diana, who claims to be the daughter of Zeus and Hippolyta, is one of the superheroes of Earth 07, "Wonder Woman".

Possessing extraordinary strength, extreme speed and reflexes, she can control lightning and some magic, and can even achieve flight by using the "Lasso of Truth" that can bind anything.

Her equipment are all divine weapons.

For example, the rope previously picked up by the little girl is the "Lasso of Truth" that encompasses physical, spiritual, and regular attacks.

Once bound by it, the captive will answer any question.

Besides that, Diana also possesses a starlight tiara like a crown, silver bracelets like vambraces, the God-forged sword crafted by Hephestus of Universe 07, and a divine power shield.

All of this makes her seem like the strongest "native" hero on Earth 07.

The reason for being "native" is due to the Kryptonian orphan Clark Kent, who overwhelmingly dominates in every aspect.

Moreover, Fogrem not only learned Diana's identity and the information that the Krypton Meteorite can break the Doom Demon's defenses, but also obtained the reason why Earth 07 has fallen into this apocalyptic situation.

Of course, this information is from Diana's personal perspective.

For example, the "present" time on Earth 07 is November 17, 2019; a simple calculation shows Diana was born over five thousand years ago.

Despite her great age, she remains very pure and straightforward; the heroine told Fogrem that over these five thousand years, she has spent 99% of her time living and training on her homeland, an isolated island called Paradise Island.

Until over eighty years ago, Diana escaped Paradise Island due to excess curiosity, and through various chances and encounters, became involved in humanity's Second World War.

From then on, Diana began to conceal her identity and also started using her own abilities to secretly fight for justice in the human world.

As time entered the 21st century, "she" met many gifted humans… not only humans, but also friends of other species.

Such as the one possessing divine speed, called the "Flash", who is actually the "decadent" youth Barry Allen.

On the surface he is a playboy billionaire, owner of Wayne International Enterprises, but secretly he is a crime-fighter with peak human martial arts and combat skills, the "Batman" Bruce Wayne.

Able to freely roam and reside in the oceans, he is also the prince of the Atlantean race, likewise possessing extraordinary strength, reflexes and speed, the "Aquaman" Arthur Curry.

And one is the strongest among her companions, the Kryptonian offspring, "Superman" Clark Kent.

"They" even formed an organization called the "Justice League", funded and supplied with high-end technology by Bruce Wayne, enabling them to better protect Earth.

However…

With the Kryptonian exiles led by "General Zod" descending upon Earth and causing a series of sudden changes, the Justice League gradually became exposed to public view.

Furthermore, a guy named Lex Luthor, relying on money and connections, obtained General Zod's corpse, and then used the breeding chamber of the Kryptonian ship to create a "Doomsday" monster.

This monster, whose name is similar to the Doom Demon, is also defined as "unkillable", meaning the same means cannot produce a second effective attack.

Even nuclear bombs only make Doomsday stronger.

Finally, Clark Kent, wielding the sole spear capable of harming and killing Doomsday, with its tip forged from kryptonite, chose to perish together with Doomsday.

The battle against Doomsday caused losses including Superman, with more than half of the Justice League's members gone, which can be considered a complete depletion of vitality.

If any internal or external force attempts to control or invade Earth, the Justice League would be utterly unable to resist.

Unfortunately, shortly after successfully killing Doomsday, the Justice League encountered an enemy far more terrifying and many times stronger than Doomsday.

Two years ago, that is August 6, 2017, coinciding with the seventy-second anniversary of the Hiroshima atomic bomb explosion, a planet with a diameter of twenty thousand kilometers, the "Purgatory Planet", completed some kind of spatial jump voyage, almost instantly reaching Saturn's orbit.

Before Earth could react, the "Purgatory Planet" barreled through, ignoring Saturn and Jupiter's gravity and orbit, straight into the asteroid belt to dock.

When the Justice League noticed an extra planet in the Solar System, the enemy had already opened several portals linking to Earth, and also released demonic creatures approaching infinite numbers.

The sudden situation left the still-recovering Justice League to hastily coordinate with Earth's government and military.

Diana said that at first, "they" used their own talents and military firepower to successfully evacuate the city residents near the portals.

They even once reversed course, boldly sending a military special squad through the portal to infiltrate the Purgatory Planet in the asteroid belt, successfully planting several strategic nuclear warheads.

But as they withdrew back to Earth, detonated the nuclear bombs, and believed they had won again…

The portals never closed, and the enemy dispatched even more powerful individuals.

Moreover, even if all surviving members of the Justice League were gathered, they could not oppose one who calls himself the New God King, Dark Lord, named "Darkseid".

Possessing divine speed, whose ultimate potential might exceed light speed and rewrite history, the Flash Barry Allen became the first friend sacrificed at Darkseid's hands.

Next was Aquaman.

Darkseid single-handedly took Arthur Curry's weapon, the trident, then used it to pierce Arthur's chest, after which Darkseid flung him aside; this Aquaman, due to his bloody scent, attracted thousands of demons to come and tear him apart and devour him.

Even the Justice League's strategist Bruce Wayne went missing in that battle, unknown whether dead or alive.

Finally, Darkseid unleashed the technology of its Purgatory Planet, also known as "Apokolips", which almost instantaneously altered Earth's surface and atmospheric environment, and at the same time took half of humanity's lives.

Faced with such an enemy, Diana had no choice but to lead the remaining personnel and soldiers out of combat, withdrawing to Paradise Island protected by her father Zeus.

However, this action directly exposed Paradise Island, dealing a devastating blow to her homeland.

However, before Darkseid set its sights on Paradise Island, it first dug up the corpse of Superman Clark Kent and seized control of the Kryptonian spacecraft…

No need to think much; the monster that attacked the refuge, stronger than the Doom Demon of the main universe Astate, is exactly the creature bred by Darkseid using Apokolips and Kryptonian biotechnology, along with Clark Kent's genes.

As for Superman, who had already died before the apocalyptic war began, Darkseid "resurrected" and "remodeled" him into a puppet lacking self-thought and self-wisdom.

Afterwards, the destruction of Paradise Island was carried out by the puppet Superman leading the first batch of Doom Demons bred by Apokolips.

Diana's mother Hippolyta, while shielding Diana and the remaining soldiers during their withdrawal, also died at the hands of the puppet Superman.

Although Diana and the soldiers managed to escape, her mother and sisters also permanently lost their lives.

Since then.

The Justice League, existing in name only, was left supported by a single person, Daianna, and based on the surviving soldiers, began to roam across the Americas, forming a small yet extremely elite resistance force.

During this time, she heard that the long‑vanished Olympian gods had reappeared and walked the world because of the apocalyptic war on Earth, passing through a Space Gate to the Apocalypse Star.

The lack of further news indicates that the Olympian gods were either captured or had their souls or original existence erased; in any case, the Apocalypse Star achieved a complete victory.

Having completed the conquest, Da Ke Sai De, perhaps to display honor or to "commemorate" the Justice League's resistance, regarded Earth as a perfect trophy and delayed ordering the draining of the mantle and core, instead establishing a government of human traitors willing to submit to its rule to govern humanity.

Immediately thereafter.

Da Ke Sai De left a fellow called "Wangyuan Lang" to guard and supervise Earth, withdrew the puppet super‑human and half of the Doom Demons, and together with the Apocalypse Star continued the conquest of the Zero Seven Universe.

Afterwards, Earth's Asia, Europe, Americas, even Antarctica had become completely desertified; paradoxically, the "human traitor" gathering places and Africa, where the traitor government's capital lies, were spared, becoming the most suitable region on Zero Seven Earth for humans and flora and fauna to survive.

Not long ago, after Daianna learned that a Krypton Meteorite lay within the Philadelphia Laboratory about one hundred kilometers southeast of the shelter, her hot‑blooded impulse and desire for revenge drove her to lead the resistance in a blind, desperate, suicidal assault.

Because every member of the resistance knew that, whether or not they obtained the meteorite, the outcome had been sealed the moment Earth fell; no matter how they fought, death was inevitable, so they chose to struggle and fight for the remaining "hope" before dying.

As Daianna had said, the operation failed; two Doom Demons slaughtered all the resistance except her, and she even had her right arm ripped off.

She fought with all her might, barely managing to behead one of them, but another Doom Demon's right fist struck her; the sheer force hurled the seemingly slight woman into the air, and she crashed into a building, falling unconscious.

Next, the scavengers encountered Daianna and brought her back to the shelter.

After learning the detailed situation of Zero Seven Earth through Daianna, Fu Ge Rui Mu felt that if his father had not opened the Space Gate, the human compatriots of Zero Seven Earth would only face a dark future of enslavement, persecution, and death.

Otherwise, Da Ke Sai De would be called the Dark Lord.

At this very moment.

Inside the Command Center of the Advance Base, Fu Ge Rui Mu, Gen Luo·Westgate, Sarah Kerrigan, the commanders of the 2nd and 3rd companies of the 13th Battalion, and Rus, whose holographic image was projected, were gathered around the main console discussing what to do next.

"Everyone, please rest assured," Rus, unusually serious, said, placing his hands behind his back, scanning the assembled people, and spoke in a deep voice:

"Fenris will provide maximum support. I have already dispatched my personal Honor Guard to the Advance Base, and the company has also sent the Olympian troops skilled in Spiritual Energy and possessing robust physiques. They are expected to arrive at Fenris in four hours, and will then assist you in controlling and eliminating the so‑called…

…what thing?" he said, while Rus still looked at Fu Ge Rui Mu with a slightly flamboyant expression.

"Doom Demon, brother," Fu Ge Rui Mu replied patiently.

"Yes, Doom Demon," Rus nodded, continuing in a righteous tone: "Because of the Doom Demon's unique physiology and the lives of two billion human compatriots, we cannot employ large‑scale Spiritual Shock. Therefore, my brother, also an OriginalBody, Fu Ge Rui Mu, will present his perspective."

"…" Fu Ge Rui Mu was speechless at Rus's overly solemn demeanor.

Moreover, what terrified him most was that, unconsciously, he found this completely normal, as if he were being assimilated by Rus and the Space Wild Wolves.

After a brief hesitation, Fu Ge Rui Mu began to state his view: "Our primary task now is to seize the Krypton Meteorite in the Philadelphia Laboratory and, by analyzing the meteorite, obtain detailed information about Krypton.

Then we can use the planetary terraforming device to select an Earth‑like planet in the primary universe, transform it, and recreate a complete Krypton.

Since we have been here for over four hours without receiving any attack, we can infer that the enemy is brewing a full‑scale offensive.

Therefore, I will cooperate with Rus's Honor Guard to create a big commotion as a lure, and seize the opportunity to capture the meteorite, preventing the enemy from destroying it; this task will be assigned to Sarah Kerrigan and the 13th Battalion's stealth squad.

At this point, Fu Ge Rui Mu looked at Gen Luo·Westgate and concluded: "Finally, Colonel Westgate, please lead the 2nd and 3rd companies of the 13th Battalion, using my forces and the Honor Guard to draw enemy attention, and coordinate with the already deployed 1st Company to rescue as many survivors as possible."
