Chapter 5168-5171 [The Anti-Life Equation]

Xiang Nan and Diana traveled the world for three years. During those three years, they went to almost every place except the deep sea, and fully experienced the different customs, natural landscapes, historical sites and so on.

Of course, Xiang Nan wasn't just doing it for fun.

In fact, one of his purposes in traveling around the world was to find the "antimatter equation" inscribed on the Earth.

The antimatter equation is an extremely powerful superpower that can corrode and devour anything it touches. Darkseid, the biggest villain in the DC Universe, has been searching for it.

Because he wants to enslave the entire universe and become its sole god. And the antimatter equation can help him enslave everyone and bring them under his control.

In Zack Snyder's planned Justice League 2, Superman is manipulated by Darkseid using the antimatter equation because of Lois Lane's death, thus becoming an accomplice in Darkseid's rule over Earth.

However, due to the box office failure of "Justice League", Warner Bros. was preparing to reboot the DC Universe, so "Justice League 2" was canceled before filming even began.

However, the power of the antimatter equation is still evident. Darkseid conquered 100,000 planets in order to find it.

Xiang Nan did not want such powerful abilities to fall into Darkseid's hands. Otherwise, not only would Diana be killed by Darkseid, but he himself might also be controlled by Darkseid and become his slave.

Therefore, he wanted to find the antimatter equation in advance and contain this power.

However, despite traveling to every corner of the world with Diana, he never found the antimatter equation.

Even the Wish Compass couldn't guide him to the whereabouts of the antimatter equation.

……

"Is it only possible to find it with the help of the mother box?" Xiang Nan couldn't help but wonder.

In the movie Justice League, Steppenwolf discovers the existence of antimatter equations on Earth only after being guided by two Mother Boxes.

But Xiang Nan knew that once the Mother Box was activated, it would release a message to its master, Darkseid. At that point, Darkseid would launch another attack on Earth.

In Justice League, the Mother Box was activated because Cyborg's father recklessly used its transformative power to save Cyborg, who was crippled after a car accident.

As a result, although the son survived and became a special life form that was half-human and half-machine, the Mother Box was also activated and released a signal to Apokolips, which led to Steppenwolf's invasion of Earth.

Although Steppenwolf was eventually killed by Superman, Darkseid already knew Earth's secrets and could invade Earth at any time.

Although Xiang Nan's strength surpasses Darkseid's, to be honest, he still doesn't want to provoke Darkseid in the short term.

Darkseid, as a being of single-universe power, possesses terrifying strength. He not only has immense power, speed, stamina, and defense, but also technology far surpassing that of humans.

His omega rays, in particular, are guaranteed to hit their target once fired. And once they do, the target is completely annihilated. Only those protected by gods or the laws of the universe could possibly escape unscathed.

Xiang Nan was neither blessed by the gods nor protected by the laws of the universe.

To be honest, Steve Trevor should be a dead man. The fact that he is still alive violates the laws of the universe. I guess the DC universe would love for him to be eliminated by Darkseid.

Therefore, Xiang Nan does not want to provoke Darkseid for the time being.

……

After their round-the-world trip, Xiang Nan and Diana returned to Paradise Island. "Diana, it's so good to see you back," Queen Hippolyta of the Amazons said with a happy smile upon seeing her daughter return safely.

“Mother, I’m also very happy to be back,” Diana said with a smile.

"Why did he come back too?" Antiop asked Xiang Nan, puzzled.

Xiang Nan gave an awkward smile.

Seeing this, Diana affectionately took his arm and said, "Mother, we are together now."

"I knew it." Hippolyta said, rubbing her forehead in frustration. One of the reasons she didn't want her daughter to go out with Xiang Nan was that she was worried her daughter would fall in love with him.

Now, as expected, her fears have come true.

“Diana, you are our Amazonian princess, how can you be matched with a mortal?” Antiop exclaimed in surprise. “And don’t you realize that mortals have very short lifespans?”

No matter how deep your love is, decades later, he will grow old and die. You, however, will still be young. How will you live the rest of your days then?

“But Steve is no ordinary man,” Diana explained. “He is the god of justice, the messenger of Ilúvatar.”

“Ilúvatar, the goddess of justice?!” Hippolyta shook her head. “Never heard of her.”

“Yes, Diana, humans are very cunning. Don’t be easily fooled,” Antiope said to Diana.

She had been enslaved by humans in the past, so she didn't have any good feelings towards them.

“I wasn’t fooled, he really is a messenger of God,” Diana said, waving her hand. Then she looked at Xiang Nan and said, “Steve, show them what you’re capable of.”

Xiang Nan nodded, stretched out his hands, one hand spewing out extremely blazing flames, the other hand spewing out extremely cold air, and his eyes also released powerful shockwaves, and his body slowly floated up...

The flames were so intense that they melted even the rocks on the cliff edge; the chill was so strong that frost quickly formed on the ground. The shockwaves emitted from the eyes easily destroyed boulders... demonstrating unparalleled power.

The Amazons watched this scene in astonishment, never expecting Xiang Nan to possess such formidable strength.

"It seems we still lack understanding of the gods," Hippolyta had to admit after witnessing Xiang Nan's displayed strength.

According to DC Comics, gods like Zeus, Ares, the God of Deception, and Artemis are actually native to Earth.

Moreover, there are not only Greek gods on Earth, but also Egyptian gods, Norse gods, Eastern gods, and so on. They were all born under the catalysis of the wave of the gods.

These deities, placed in the Marvel Universe, are equivalent to Thor, Odin, Surtur, and so on—they belong to the level of a Godfather.

These gods are as numerous as hairs on a cow in the universe, so even though the Amazons are familiar with the gods, there are still many gods they do not know.

“But he’s a man, and it’s not really appropriate for him to stay on the island,” Antiop said worriedly.

Paradise Island is full of women; leaving a man there seems inappropriate.

“If you want to force Steve to leave, then I’ll have no choice but to leave Paradise Island too,” Diana said, clearly indicating that she would never separate from Xiang Nan.
