But in the span of just a few daylight hours, the whole world had changed.
Such a massive shift—regime changes on a global scale—could no longer be hidden from the masses.
On the world network, people across the globe were shocked by the sudden transformations in various nations and the presence of Barmulodi Group personnel. They soared grandly through the skies, causing an uproar. Their figures were photographed, sparking widespread shock.
"I saw the trench coat with the Ω logo from Barmulodi. That man was flying through the sky at high speed!"
"What is going on?"
"They can fly?!"
"I'm here too. I saw people wearing the exclusive Barmulodi windbreaker flying in the sky!"
"I've seen people flying in London multiple times!"
"Barmulodi's men were taking to the skies over New York!"
"I saw them in Seoul, South Korea too."
"Paris as well..."
"Tokyo... there was blood on his body..."
"The U.S. military is on alert. The President has died unexpectedly. General Sam Lane and the Vice President are handling government affairs temporarily."
"The French military and government have entirely changed hands..."
"The British royal family has vanished, the Prime Minister is dead, and the one who took over national affairs is suspected to be from the Barmulodi Group..."
"The German Bundesrat impeached the President. He stepped down and disappeared before everyone's eyes. The Vice President has taken over."
"Australia's top executive was slaughtered..."
"Indonesia announced it would surrender sovereignty and join the Barmulodi Empire..."
In just a few hours, every country with a population over fifty million experienced regime change, triggering mass killings at the highest levels of power.
Nearly five million high-ranking Kryptonian warriors—Kryptonians embedded in governments around the world—removed their civilian disguises and donned battle coats emblazoned with the Ω logo, exclusive to the Barmulodi Group. Some were even top Kryptonian scientists, beings far beyond the capabilities of ordinary humans, now leaping across the skies.
Little Hera sat in the Emperor Building, and Little Louis was enjoying desserts in the Sky Garden, all while issuing commands to take control of the entire planet.
Little Hera did not block global news. On the contrary, today's network was running smoother than ever, and the events people saw and heard spread quickly across the globe.
Humans stared up at the sky in disbelief, watching the sonic boom trails streaking across it.
Figures in windbreakers flew overhead.
One by one, Barmulodi employees moved back and forth across various countries, carrying out massive slaughters.
Online, some people broke down in tears. Others were too stunned to speak.
"My country... it's gone. It's now part of the Barmulodi Empire!"
"Same here. What's happening?! I've become a citizen of the Barmulodi Empire???"
"I heard the welfare benefits for commoners in the Barmulodi Empire are great...?"
"They're killing and seizing power."
"This is aggression. Barmulodi is invading the entire world."
"The country's leadership was wiped out. They took control of the military and top officials. Anyone who resisted was slaughtered."
"I saw the family next door in their villa burned into charcoal by a Barmulodi employee whose eyes shot lasers. He even smiled and told me not to be afraid! Damn it, of course I was scared!"
"A top official tried to resist Barmulodi. His entire family was killed. Only the shivering Filipino servant was spared!"
"Who are these people?! They have laser eyes, can fly, have infinite strength, and are invulnerable!"
"This is Superman. A monster beyond human comprehension!"
"Are they genetically engineered superhumans created by Barmulodi?"
"He has so many Supermen! Is he planning to rule the world?"
"This is a tyrant. He's taking over the world! He's triggering global bloodshed."
"The Emperor Building is suspected of being under attack, and there was a huge explosion!"
"Someone captured a photo of a gorilla shooting down a black fighter jet near the Emperor's Mansion!"
"Then the gorilla was blasted into the ground by a particle beam from the sky and died!"
"It's rumored that all countries sent superpowered individuals to attack the Emperor Building, but they were killed one by one by Barmulodi."
"A small country even detonated a nuclear bomb on the spot, trying to perish together with Barmulodi's employees!"
"This is freaking terrifying!!"
"Barmulodi employees walked out of the ruins several kilometers away! Their windbreakers were still flying! Damn, they looked so cool!"
"What kind of monsters are these?!"
"They can survive nuclear bombs?!"
"Even if it wasn't ground zero, nothing should be able to survive that!"
"What happened to the world!!!"
"Everyone, check the World United Nations announcement!!"
"The United States declares it is no longer a sovereign nation and is now part of the Barmulodi Empire!"
"France declares it is now part of the Barmulodi Empire!"
"Russia declares it is now part of the Barmulodi Empire!"
"Germany declares it is now part of the Barmulodi Empire!"
"Britain declares it is now part of the Barmulodi Empire!"
"Japan announces it is now part of the Barmulodi Empire!"
"Out of 48 countries in Asia, 43 have become territories of the Barmulodi Empire! Over 4 billion people are now Barmulodi citizens!"
"Europe has 43 countries and 1 region. 35 have become direct territories of the Barmulodi Empire, with around 700 million people now Barmulodi citizens!"
"Africa is even more terrifying. All 53 countries and 6 regions have become tropical backyards of the Barmulodi Empire, adding 1.2 billion people as citizens!"
"Oceania, North America, South America... nearly 7 billion people worldwide, in just a few hours, have been marked as citizens of the Barmulodi Empire! How is this possible?!"
"What is happening!"
"Why did a world war break out!!"
"Other than sonic booms in the sky and people flying, it seems... nothing else changed."
"It's like... nothing happened to ordinary civilians?"
"It's sad. We didn't even go to the battlefield. Yet silently, we became citizens of another country through the internet."
"The rulers at the top just changed."
"It was just one damn afternoon. I played a few games of League of Legends, got two wins, and now I'm a citizen of Barmulodi?!"
"I took a nap, woke up, and suddenly people can fly, and there's only one country left on Earth! I was so stunned, I thought I had traveled to another world!"
"Barmulodi—the man once marked with the greatest wealth, the best of everything, the most powerful energy in the world..."
"From now on, he's no longer just a symbol."
"He owns the entire world!"
