Earth. The sudden disappearance of the colossal Celestial in outer space, coupled with the unique spatial distortion phenomenon characteristic of the Mirror Dimension, left all of humanity in a state of profound bewilderment.
What exactly had just happened?
Did the White Demon win or lose?
And where did the space god go?
The internet was once again thrown into an absolute uproar. People from various factions frantically posted their theories online. Some believed the White Demon had emerged victorious, successfully completing the impossible feat of slaughtering a god. Others insisted the White Demon had been executed by the Celestial and cast down into hell. A third group argued that the White Demon and the Celestial had annihilated each other in a mutually assured destruction.
The vast majority of mortals were merely ants; they couldn't comprehend what had actually transpired. They didn't even know what a Celestial was or where it came from, leaving them to blindly follow the chaotic tide of public opinion.
Su Mu's sudden disappearance brought massive changes to Earth. One of the most immediate changes was the absolute cessation of the Mind Stone's influence. Without Su Mu actively maintaining the control, all the subjugated individuals instantly returned to normal.
In a luxurious Malibu bedroom, Mystique curled up in the corner of a soft bed, trembling uncontrollably. The other Hollywood actresses in the room looked at her in sheer confusion, wondering why this shape-shifting woman—who was usually highly favored by their wealthy "sponsor"—was suddenly having a complete mental breakdown.
As the Mind Stone's influence completely evaporated, Mystique's own will was restored. To her absolute, paralyzing horror, she realized that during this entire period, she had been doing everything in her power to serve her sworn enemy. She had been willingly serving the very demon who murdered Charles Xavier and seized control of the Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters!
Her very soul trembled in despair. The psychological shock was so severe that even her mutant abilities lost control, causing her appearance to continuously and erratically shift...
Aboard the Helicarrier Ark, numerous S.H.I.E.L.D. agents began waking up from their hypnotic subjugation.
Inside the Director's office, Nick Fury rubbed his head, his expression incredibly grim. He exchanged a heavy look with Phil Coulson.
"Coulson, do you think the White Demon is still alive?" Fury asked.
Immediately after regaining his senses, Fury had rapidly issued several commands to stabilize S.H.I.E.L.D.'s internal operations. He genuinely dreaded to imagine what had happened while they were under the entity's control.
S.H.I.E.L.D. had been completely hijacked by the White Demon. If the boy had actually harbored any desire to rule Earth, the Mind Stone's power would have made it effortlessly easy for him!
Coulson pondered for a moment before replying, "Facing a literal space god, even the White Demon should be dead. However, because we lack absolute confirmation, we must make full preparations for his potential return! Moreover, rather than worrying about the missing White Demon, we have a much more pressing task: we need to fully secure and take over the Ark!"
Fury nodded slowly. The White Demon's temporary takeover of S.H.I.E.L.D. wasn't entirely detrimental. At the very least, they now possessed the scientific methodology to synthesize symbiotes, effectively granting them a powerful symbiote army. More importantly, they had acquired critical intelligence regarding the impending threat of the Mad Titan from deep space, as well as a fully functional extraterrestrial warship—the Ark—whose technology was hundreds of years ahead of Earth's!
Inside Stark Tower, Tony Stark held his head, staring up at the sky with an incredibly complex expression. It was glaringly obvious that he had been influenced as well; otherwise, given his inherent personality, he would have never actively befriended a demon who casually slaughtered civilians.
However, the White Demon had also provided him with an immense amount of help. The bleeding-edge nano-armor, his newfound mastery over magic, and the truth about his parents' assassination were all "gifts" from the White Demon.
This left Tony wrestling with profoundly complicated feelings...
Elsewhere, the Xavier's School was descending into internal chaos, the US Military was celebrating with absolute joy, and society at large was restless. The entire planet was reeling from the White Demon's abrupt departure. Unknowingly, the entire Earth had been completely blanketed by his shadow!
In stark contrast to the chaotic Marvel Earth, Su Mu—the absolute source of all this turmoil—had successfully traversed the cosmic nexus and arrived in an entirely different multiverse!
And the name of this multiverse was DC!
Gotham. A city where darkness and sin completely intertwined, exuding an eerie, mysterious aura under the veil of night.
A thick, perpetual smog blanketed this terminally ill metropolis, blocking out any sunlight that dared to try and pierce through, ensuring Gotham remained forever decaying and dangerous.
As usual, crime and slaughter were occurring in various dark alleys. After all, the deepest shadows of towering skyscrapers were the perfect breeding ground for maggots.
But today was destined to be different. An unexpected guest had crossed countless dimensions and parallel worlds, arriving directly in this hotbed of sin.
If an ordinary person accidentally ended up in Gotham, one could only say they were incredibly unlucky. But this unexpected guest was entirely different. If someone had to be unlucky in this scenario, it absolutely wouldn't be him. It would be Gotham...
Selina hunched her body, gracefully traversing the rooftops and eaves of the high-rises. Like a literal cat, she was elegant and agile; any tiny ledge could serve as her foothold. Thanks to her feline abilities, she was the world's most exceptional thief, capable of stealing absolutely anything!
Tonight, her target was the hidden vault of a minor mob boss. This particular boss's gang wasn't top-tier in Gotham's hierarchy, but through his involvement in the jewelry trade, he had amassed quite a collection. It was the perfect target: highly profitable, with zero fear of any meaningful retaliation.
The heist had gone flawlessly. Using her exquisite thieving skills, she successfully procured a piece of jewelry she fancied and was making a leisurely exit. No one had noticed a thing.
But just as she left the mob boss's manor and prepared to head back to her own apartment, the unexpected happened!
Bzzzt! Bzzzt!
The sound of sparking energy abruptly crackled in front of her. Under Catwoman's shocked gaze, a swirling golden portal materialized out of thin air. A young, white-haired man stepped out of it, staring directly at her.
What the hell is this? A mage?
Ever since she had been resurrected from the dead, Selina knew that mystical forces existed in this world. But seeing magic manifest right in front of her still left her profoundly startled.
Her tragic childhood had forged Selina's deeply insecure, highly defensive personality. The exact second the white-haired man appeared, she reacted like a startled cat, her body tensing as she practically hissed:
"Who are you? Why are you here? How did you just do that?!"
She fired off several questions in rapid succession, finally drawing Su Mu's attention.
"Where is this?" Su Mu asked, looking the beautiful woman up and down.
Having used the Six Eyes to briefly scan the surrounding environment upon his arrival, he already had a strong theory about which universe he was in, but he needed verbal confirmation.
"This is Gotham. A hopeless capital of crime," Selina warned cautiously. "If you ended up here by accident, I highly suggest you leave immediately. This city is not safe!"
"Gotham... Looks like I came to the right place." Su Mu completely ignored the beautiful woman's warning. How dangerous could Gotham possibly be? Was it more dangerous than the Celestials?
He smiled at the young woman. "I'm afraid leaving isn't an option right now. I was just wrestling a planet-sized giant. I'm fairly certain he's a bit more dangerous than Gotham!"
Selina stared blankly at the mysterious man spouting absolute nonsense. Wrestling a planet-sized giant? Who are you trying to fool? Although she had instantly labeled this mysterious man as completely unhinged, his method of arrival was undeniably supernatural. Selina didn't want any trouble, so when he asked his next question, she answered honestly.
"Have you ever heard of Iron Man or Captain America?" Su Mu asked.
"Isn't that from Marvel Comics?" Selina replied, looking at him like he was an idiot.
Marvel Comics? Su Mu mused internally. So this is definitively the DC Universe. I'm just not sure if it's the comic continuity or the cinematic continuity. Though, considering my dimensional will was leaning toward the cinematic universe, even if it's not the DCEU, it should be a close variant!
After a brief moment of thought, Su Mu offered a warm, polite smile to the girl, who was currently trying to quietly tiptoe away.
"Miss, I'm new here and completely unfamiliar with this world. Could you perhaps take me in for a short while? Naturally, I will pay a sum that will more than satisfy you."
Selina didn't even have to think about it; she immediately wanted to refuse. A mysterious, unhinged, portal-opening mage? That had "massive trouble" written all over it. She wanted to stay as far away from him as mathematically possible!
But then, the mysterious man casually produced a handful of absolutely priceless jewels and pure gold bricks in his palm.
Selina stopped dead in her tracks. Her body completely betrayed her rational mind. Staring unblinkingly at the dazzling fortune, she nodded her head frantically.
"Yes, yes, yes! You can stay at my place! Stay as long as you want!"
After a brief conversation with the girl, Su Mu couldn't help but marvel at his own luck. The very first person he bumped into upon arriving in the DC Universe was Catwoman! She was clearly still very young and inexperienced, likely having just acquired her superhuman abilities, and she hadn't even adopted her iconic tight leather suit yet. That was why Su Mu hadn't recognized her instantly.
Persuaded by the massive pile of jewels, Selina generously gave Su Mu her own bedroom, opting to sleep on the living room couch herself.
Surrounded by the faint, pleasant scent of the girl's perfume, Su Mu sat on the bed and checked his current status.
Opening the System Panel, a massive cascade of new notifications instantly refreshed:
[System Notification: Energy Point +1]
[System Notification: Energy Point +1]
[System Notification: Energy Point +1]
...
[System Notification: Template Synchronization: 47%]
[System Notification: You have unlocked a new Skill: Unknown Wings · Colorless]
[Unknown Wings · Colorless Lv.1 (1/100): Manipulates phase power in space to manifest an advanced version of the colorless wings. Exponentially amplifies the user's overall combat strength!]
During his apocalyptic battle with Arishem, Su Mu had continuously devoured a massive volume of cosmic energy from the Prime Celestial, as well as the infinite output of the three Infinity Stones. This had yielded an astronomical amount of Energy Points. After dumping all of those points into his Template Synchronization, the percentage had skyrocketed, currently sitting at 47%.
Because the synchronization had breached the 40% threshold, Su Mu had awakened a brand-new skill: the Colorless Wings!
Furthermore, due to his relentless, maximum-output usage of various skills during the cosmic clash, the experience bars for several abilities had surged. Most importantly, one of his absolute core skills had leveled up again!
[System Notification: Hollow Technique: Purple EXP +1]
[System Notification: Congratulations, Skill 'Hollow Technique: Purple' has leveled up!]
[Hollow Technique: Purple Lv.3 (1/1000): Merges the absolute convergence of 'Blue' and the absolute divergence of 'Red' to forge imaginary mass. Unleashes an energy wave capable of slicing through space itself. The user possesses highly precise, localized form manipulation over the imaginary mass!]
