For Dr. Manhattan, whose divinity had replaced his humanity at this moment, everything in his eyes was simply divided into known and unknown.
He had exhausted all knowledge within his Watchmen Universe; everything was laid bare before his eyes. Thus, it was to continue satisfying his thirst for knowledge that he undertook Universe travel.
Arriving in the Main Universe, he stood upon the endless flow of super-time, witnessing the repeated destruction and rebirth of the Universe.
However, when he traced things back to their source, he discovered that all of these outcomes were inextricably linked to one person: Superman.
Thus, he began his experiments on Superman, corrupting one righteous Superman after another.
During this process, he used his abilities countless times to alter Superman's original destiny, which also led to the creation of countless parallel Universes.
This further solidified his belief that the Superman of this Universe was the core of the entire World; everything existed or was destroyed because of him.
Each reboot after a major event seemingly returned everything to its starting point, but he knew that those past events were real; they had simply branched off in time to form parallel Universes.
So, just as he was about to conduct his final experiment, he discovered yet another variable that could influence the future!
This variable was Kytheron, a Kryptonian God who had never appeared on any timeline.
"In my opinion, your so-called plan is meaningless, even incredibly foolish, all for your ridiculous thirst for knowledge."
Facing the indifferent Dr. Manhattan, Kytheron was equally unreserved.
Perhaps this fellow was indeed incredibly powerful to the heroes of Earth, but Kytheron held a Quantum Superman with power equal to his own.
"Because of that inevitable accident, I gained the power to control everything, to change everything. The only thing in this World that makes me feel my existence is meaningful is to explore more unknowns."
"Your existence has caused an unpredictable change in my plan. Therefore, I must ask you to leave this World. If you do not cooperate, then I can only erase you. Please understand!"
Dr. Manhattan spoke to Kytheron with a serious expression, looking as if he were genuinely discussing it with Kytheron.
Hearing this, Kytheron almost burst out laughing.
"I'm sorry, I've just arrived in this World and have no intention of leaving yet."
"And unfortunately for you, if I let you continue this nonsense, it will cause me a lot of trouble as well. So, could you please go and die first!"
Kytheron said to Dr. Manhattan with a smile, his killing intent undisguised.
"Ozymandias was the first human to deceive me, and you are the first being to tell me you will kill me, but all of this is useless."
"In the future I have observed, the only one who has a chance to destroy me is Superman. However, whether he destroys me or I destroy everything is still unknown; you have no chance."
Before preparing to begin this final experiment, Dr. Manhattan had seen everything in the future through the super-time flow!
However, he only saw an enraged Superman delivering a World-shattering punch towards him in the final outcome; he did not know the ultimate result.
However, all of this was based on the premise that Kytheron, this unknown variable, had not appeared.
But after Kytheron appeared, when he checked the future again, he found no trace of Kytheron ever existing in the entire time flow.
This made him realize that Kytheron would become the biggest disruptor of his experiment. Therefore, to eliminate all anomalies, he only needed to remove Kytheron from this Universe!
He gave Kytheron two choices: leave or die. This was already the greatest mercy he could offer!
"Whether there's a chance or not isn't up to you!"
As his voice fell, Kytheron's figure instantly vanished, and a thick Dragon tail swept towards Dr. Manhattan with an all-crushing force.
"Bang!"
Dr. Manhattan merely raised a hand indifferently. Powerful Quantum energy erupted, forming a terrifying Quantum force field, instantly neutralizing the attack.
But what followed was Kytheron's barrage of attacks, like a fierce storm.
Every part of his body at this moment had become a weapon of attack, intermingled with divine power. However, it seemed Kytheron was not so much fighting as he was simply stretching his body.
"Don't make a futile struggle. The power you possess, whether physical, magic, technological, spiritual, or divine, cannot harm me."
"This is your last chance: leave or Death!"
Dr. Manhattan, who effortlessly neutralized Kytheron's attacks, still maintained his detached expression, slowly uttering two sentences.
"What a truly merciful God! It seems after becoming a Quantum God and not encountering a worthy opponent, you truly believe yourself invincible! The real show is just about to begin!"
Upon hearing this, Kytheron's grotesque maw split into a mocking grin.
Immediately, his body began to tremble, and then a blue light, identical to the one on Dr. Manhattan, lit up.
Seeing this, Dr. Manhattan suddenly noticed that the surrounding Quantum energy began to riot. This situation indicated the presence of another Quantum-side God nearby, but how could that be?
The next second, a Superman, clad in red and blue battle armor with a cerulean Quantum body, separated from Kytheron's body.
The moment the Quantum Superman appeared, the entire Universe trembled.
Within the Domain of the Gods, many Gods sensed this newly emerged aura and couldn't help but cast their attention.
"A newborn Quantum God, and from his appearance, he's a Superman from some Universe. What exactly is going on? How could Rao allow such a thing to happen?"
Some Gods felt puzzled.
Rao's role in the destruction of Kryptonian might be a secret within the Multiverse, but within the Domain of the Gods, everyone was well aware of it and merely watched from the sidelines with an attitude of spectating.
Now, a Superman from a certain Universe had become a Quantum-side God, which made them feel incredibly unbelievable.
What they didn't know was that Rao was almost bursting with rage at this moment. First Kytheron, and now a Quantum Superman, they felt their control over the Kryptonian Bloodline had been further weakened!
"Kill him! Eliminate them at all costs!"
At this moment, Rao had made a firm resolve to kill Kytheron and the Quantum Superman.
Kytheron was unaware of Rao's oath. At this moment, he raised his Dragon claw, pointed at the Quantum Superman beside him, and said to Dr. Manhattan:
"I'm sorry, I was just using you to stretch this body of mine that has just revived. Your real opponent is him!"
Looking at the Quantum Superman in front of him, who possessed an almost identical aura to his own, Dr. Manhattan's face showed a less indifferent expression for the first time.
