The rainy night has not stopped.
Thunder rolls.
Lightning not only pierced the sky outside the house, but countless blue lightnings seemed to also light up inside the house - the Speed Force vortex in the center of the living room was spinning crazily like a black hole.
It mercilessly swallowed everything around it. The leather sofa was torn into pieces and was involved in it, instantly turning into powder. Even the floor tiles were torn apart and sucked into the violent energy vortex.
Ian only had time to save his mother's antique vase, but failed to save his father's toolbox that was placed far away - it seems that Superman was really delayed by something.
The tool box contains all Clark's favorite wrenches, iron pliers and the like.
Several years of accumulation.
Farm boys loved tinkering with these things.
Now it is directly burned to the ground.
The body of Reverse-Flash, who had just died, was also rolled up and floated towards the core of the vortex. At the last moment before disappearing, his yellow uniform peeled off like burning paper.
Revealing the rapidly carbonized body underneath.
Flesh is withering rapidly.
The corpse even opened its eyes and roared - Speedster obtained the right to use Speed Force, so they had to pay a price. Their final Homecoming was neither Heaven nor Hell.
Instead, become a slave to Speed Force.
Just like those black figures swimming in the whirlpool of Speed Force. Each black figure represents a former Speedster, and they will continue to serve Speed Force after their death.
Until the end of time.
"What is that?" Ian also saw the black figure of Speed Force in the whirlpool. He knew it and tried to carry out a sneak attack. However, Reverse-Flash easily escaped Ian's teleportation sneak attack.
After all, the rotation speed of the eyeball determines the landing position of Ian, which cannot escape the observation of Speedster, not to mention that the new Reverse-Flash that appears now seems to be much faster than the previous one.
Even when Ian moved his eyes, he had already appeared behind Ian's landing point, but he did not launch an attack, but whispered softly with his electronic reverb.
"Ian·Kent, you are a boy who should not have appeared. Maybe the universe has given you some wonderful abilities, but your abilities are insignificant in front of Speedster."
Reverse-Flash, who didn't seem to be irritable, still had a condescending tone, with a hint of Speedster's unique arrogance, "The little tricks the universe has given you are completely worthless in front of a Speedster like me."
"In the final analysis, you are just a product born from Flashpoint and created by our abilities." Reverse-Flash appeared in another location the moment Ian turned around to attack.
Still did not launch a counterattack against Ian. This Reverse-Flash's focus has always been on the Speed Force vortex, and he obviously has no interest in killing Ian or Flash.
The dark shadow in the vortex reflected on his damaged mask.
Those shadows squirmed like living creatures.
"Oh, really?" When Ian launched another attack, his brain had already begun to make crazy calculations. He knew that he needed enough data to analyze Reverse-Flash's action patterns.
Deal with Speedster.
Most people can only rely on prediction.
Same goes for Ian.
"You will understand that I am only stating the facts, and I hope that the pain of losing your family tonight will give you enough motivation to grow." The speed of this Reverse-Flash is at least twice that of the previous Reverse-Flash.
"Just like your two brothers."
He is too fast.
He was even able to stand on the same spot and just tilt his body slightly to avoid Heat Vision, who was predicted by Ian. Of course, Ian's sneak attack this time was obviously much closer to Reverse-Flash than the last time.
This is really progress.
But there is still a lot of room for improvement. Upstairs, Jonathan and Jordan were lying on the edge of the broken ceiling, looking nervous. They were also startled when Reverse-Flash glanced at them.
"Damn, what happened at home when I was studying?" Jordan seemed to have understood what happened not long ago. Before that, he had been sitting in his room wearing headphones.
It's not like he committed the crime against the wind.
But true concentration allows Jordan to practice controlling his own Super Hearing, blocking out the sounds he doesn't want to hear, and only listening to the music and "yes" sounds he wants to hear.
Said he was studying.
That's not wrong.
However, the slightly guilty expression made Jonathan hesitate to speak.
"There was an intruder at home, but dad's phone couldn't be reached..." Jonathan did not criticize his second brother after all, but stared at the living room below with a worried expression.
They were all nestled in the same corridor, watching from the edge.
"Dad is Superman. He must be too busy. Maybe I should help Ian. After all, I am also Superboy." Jordan said and was about to jump down.
He was grabbed by Jonathan.
It's not that Jonathan thinks Jordan shouldn't go. He dragged out a wooden box from under the bed, with small statues of various styles neatly stacked inside. "Hurry up and hang some statues on yourself."
"I'll also hang some for Ian by the way. This is a mystical protective gear. Although we will also run the risk of offending the gods, the enemies who break the statues will definitely be more serious offenders than us."
Jonathan is still so superstitious.
But Jordan also made a speechless rebuttal.
He felt that what Jonathan said made sense, so he took the statue that his elder brother had given him and kept hanging it around his neck. Seeing this scene, Jonathan showed his rigor.
"Different vital parts require different statues of gods. For example, the statue of God must be placed in your crotch. Of course, the most powerful gods need to protect your most vulnerable places."
Jonathan is teaching.
Jordan is also really giving feedback seriously.
And just when the two people were discussing the support plan. Downstairs, facing Reverse-Flash's verbal attack, Ian also felt nervous. He stared at the man who was shaking his figure not far away.
"Losing family members? What are you talking about?"
Ian
Regarding this.
Reverse-Flash just smiled evilly.
"You will receive the message soon, don't worry, I look forward to seeing your potential." Reverse-Flash played Riddler with a super electric sound. He looked at Barry·Allen and then made a running gesture.
"Tonight is the beginning of Justice League's downfall, and each of us seems to have his own game." When Reverse-Flash finished his last words, he immediately started running.
This guy instantly turned into a red lightning.
Straight out of the house.
At the same time.
Speed Force The vortex suddenly exploded!
Several black shadows jumped out of it and rushed towards the living room like the Spectre.
They have human shapes, but are covered with rotten skin. Half of their faces are flesh and blood, and half are dry bones. They wear black battle suits with the Speed Force logo.
"Ho ho ho!"
The humanoid monster roared.
But it's not like the sounds that living things can make.
They are--Black Flash.
Time Wraith with legs.
Reaper exclusive to Speedster.
Black Flash exists for only one purpose. To end the lives of Zoom heroes and villains in DC Universe, and to bring Speedster back to Speed Force to become a part of them.
The moment a total of nine Time Wraith appeared, these monsters' eyes were fixed on the outside - the red arc of Reverse-Flash's escape was still left on the street.
"Ho--"
Eight Time Wraith flew out directly.
They instantly turned into black streams of light.
Its speed is even far beyond the ordinary Speedster. Obviously, the target of these guys is Reverse-Flash, who does not belong to this time and space, and has an abnormal state that is sensed by Speed Force.
I saw that the Time Wraiths were moving in an extremely weird way, leaving scorched black footprints on the floor every time they stepped, and those footprints extended forward like a fast-forwarded image.
Eight of them chased and intercepted in eight directions.
As for the remaining one.
"Clang!"
It stayed in place not because it didn't want to move, but because it and its "companions" had just emerged from the Speed Force vortex and were still in place twisting their necks to pose. It was attacked by a sneak attack.
It is different from Reverse-Flash.
Time Wraith never cares about those who dare to touch themselves.
They can hide.
But there is no need to hide at all.
All living things that touch them will have their lives taken away by them - because of this, if you were careless and did not dodge, a double-door refrigerator fell from the sky and slammed the last unlucky Time Wraith on the spot.
There is still a bit of cold temperature inside.
Of course.
Twenty degrees below zero was not enough to slow down Time Wraith too much. It ignored the obstacles of matter and penetrated out. However, Ian, who had been prepared for a long time, directly grabbed its right leg for running.
"Ho ho ho ho!!"
Time Wraith yelled angrily, he had always harvested other people's time, but today someone dared to catch him? He looked back at the little boy as if nothing had happened.
This moment.
Time Wraith is confused.
It seems that it only now realizes that it seems to have encountered something dirty.
"Ho ho ho~"
It could not speak, or could no longer speak. It could only roar a warning at Ian who caught it, and stretched out its hands in an attempt to directly take away Ian's life.
However.
Time Wraith soon discovered that his "innate" ability did not seem to be playing its intended role. Not only did the other party not die, but his smile became more and more abnormal.
"Wait for me for one hour, just one hour. You must belong to the big tonic species!" Ian's arm was indeed eroded, but this was just a decay of his flesh and blood.
[Berserker Experience+9]
[Berserker Experience+7]
[Berserker Experience+8]
Ian stares at the countdown to career awakening.
He really doesn't want to give up this rare species. Maybe if he swallows Time Wraith, he can get a speed-related improvement. If that doesn't work, maybe he can give it to his adoptive father.
Just like the previous Son of the Demon God!
Ian has suffered enough from not having high basic attributes, and he also wants to be like his father who can beat Speed Force purely by relying on numerical values. Speedster is indeed a bit of a genius against superheroes like him who don't have a high profile.
"Just one hour! It won't take you long!"
Ian pulled Time Wraith in front of his body with all his strength. Maybe it was because he didn't tell the truth often enough, and even the "ghost" didn't want to believe his comfort.
"Ho ho ho!"
Time Wraith is struggling desperately.
Like a Komodo dragon caught by Brother Asan.
When it found that Ian's hands were motionless, it even used its other foot to kick Ian's face - as a result, its other ankle was also caught.
Facing the boy with glowing eyes.
Time Wraith finally made a decision that went against his Speedster identity.
"Crack!"
There was a heart-wrenching sound of breaking - it broke off its legs and escaped. The upper half of its body clawed at the ground like crazy, using its hands instead of its feet, it sprang into a Black Flash and got into the Speed Force vortex.
The outside world is too dangerous!
It wants to hide in the arms of mother Speed Force!
"Damn it! Come back! I won't eat you! Christmas is coming soon, I'll let you be my reindeer." Of course Ian couldn't catch up, and Time Wraith didn't fall for his deception.
After all.
Time Wraith is just dead.
Not stupid.
They also had a good brain.
"Can I become Speedster if I get in?" Ian is not always brave. At least at this moment, he doesn't dare to act rashly and follow Time Wraith.
Of course.
Speed Force didn't give him a chance to choose either.
"Brush~"
Speed Force The vortex disappeared completely in almost an instant, as if it had never appeared before, and the living room immediately returned to silence from the noise.
It disappeared too quickly.
It's as if Speed Force himself is worried about Ian rushing into his body.
"Don't be like this, Santa Claus Ian's reindeer only has two reindeer legs left now?" Ian's two legs in his arms were still trying to escape from his clutches.
However.
Even though red Speed Force flashed on his legs, it was still of no use. Ian was so strong that they were still pressed hard by Ian in his arms.
[Berserker Experience+4]
[Berserker Experience+3]
[Berserker Experience+3]
There is some kind of power that is still corroding Ian's chest.
But it's not a big problem.
As soon as Self-Healing Tide's ability is activated, the missing vitality will be replenished. The power that constantly corrodes his body even makes Ian feel a joy hidden in the corrosion.
Time the Spectre's legs.
It might as well become Ian's new leveling artifact.
"What a good thing!"
Ian studied the two constantly twitching Time Wraith legs like a new toy.
The black limb twisted in his hands.
The red arcs beating on the surface of the legs make a "cracking" sound from time to time.
"Ian! I'm here to save you!"
The voice of Jordan came from above the head. With a "boom", the second young master crashed into the living room in an unelegant posture, his body bulging with the statues given by Jonathan.
It looks very funny.
But there is an inexplicable feeling of solemnity.
"Where are the people?"
Jordan, who was full of religious aura, looked around, and finally locked his eyes on Ian's legs moving wildly in his hands. He was a little surprised, with a feeling of jaw-dropping.
"I can't give this to you, I still have a magical effect!" Ian's vigilance suddenly rose. Just in case, he quickly hid Time Wraith's legs behind his back.
"I also know that they must be useful, don't make trouble, second brother, how could I steal your things... I actually just want to ask, what happened to that Yellow-Clad Man just now?"
Jordan coughed dryly.
He changed the topic very abruptly.
An awkward silence filled the air.
"That's Reverse-Flash." Barry·Allen's voice suddenly interrupted. This Speedster had woken up at some point and was leaning against the broken wall, rubbing his blackened neck.
"He came to see me. I'm sorry for causing trouble to you." Barry·Allen's voice was filled with guilt. He always felt that it was his fault that caused this family's children to suffer such an unreasonable disaster.
In fact, no one cares about this.
"Oh oh."
Jordan's eyes are wandering, and his focus is obviously very special.
"It's him. Not her?"
He didn't know what to expect. The second brother has social anxiety disorder and lacks an effective life in adolescence, so it can be seen that he has a tendency to be extremely showy and repressed.
Ian couldn't help but look sideways.
Has he paid special attention to it before?
My second brother was still in the room. When the roof was shot through for some reason, he subconsciously leaned out, but he retracted after seeing the figure exploded in the sky and Ian.
"It seems that our laboratory has never thought about this issue. That's right, no one can tell the gender of Reverse-Flash. Maybe I will have to tell Dr. Wilson about this guess about you when I get back."
"If Reverse-Flash is a female Speedster, then we must have checked in the wrong direction before." Barry·Allen seemed to be inspired by Jordan's whimsical ideas.
He woke up relatively late.
So I don't know what happened before.
Ian hesitated to speak.
And at this moment.
Barry·Allen looked at Ian who was holding two legs in his hands.
"You guys fought against Reverse-Flash? And... could it be that the legs you were holding were Time Wraith's legs?" He was obviously deeply shocked by another round of blows from Ian.
That's the Time Wraith that Speedster can't avoid!
Why are there only two legs left?
And was held in the hand of a little boy??
All of a sudden.
Flash It is impossible to sort out what happened before.
"There were two Reverse-Flashs. One hit my second brother's gun and was directly seriously injured. Then he was killed by the other Reverse-Flash." Ian had a Time Wraith's calf tucked under each arm.
He told about the outrageous things that happened to him.
Regarding Speedster's various time-travel issues, I'm afraid even Flash can't figure it out. You can realize this by looking at the shocked expressions of Barry·Allen.
"Two Reverse-Flash?"
Barry·Allen stood up straight suddenly.
Almost triggered Speed Force.
"No wonder Time Wraith appears!"
His eyes were firmly locked on the underside of Ian's arm.
"I think you'd better... let it go... it's poisonous." Barry·Allen even shrank back, he was obviously very afraid of Time Wraith.
"If it wasn't poisonous, I wouldn't like them."
Ian blinked.
He looked at his corroded armpits, and his experience with the prompts given by the system in his ears from time to time was getting less and less. He even felt that the "toxicity" of Time Wraith was a bit stretched.
"..."
Barry·Allen also doesn't know how to respond to Ian's statement.
He didn't even understand why Ian could still speak. Logically speaking, Ian should have died long ago and could no longer die. Time Wraith would die if he touched anyone.
Kryptonian is really so outrageous?
Barry·Allen, who had never encountered such a situation before, was obviously touched by a blind spot in knowledge.
"You must be tired after saving all of us. I can help you get some. Maybe I'm not afraid of poison." Jordan took the initiative to offer his courtesy, which seemed like a traitor or a thief.
"No, I have to use them to push myself hard. When I catch that little Reverse-Flash in the future, I will definitely let him deliver food to me 24 hours a day every day."
Ian has already remembered the incident with Reverse-Flash in his heart. This matter will have to be delivered by Reverse-Flash for at least thirty years. He feels that Reverse-Flash's battle suit is naturally suitable for delivering food.
"???"
Barry·Allen fell silent immediately after listening to Ian's speech.
"Did you know that I have a takeaway company? I entrusted it to Uncle Bruce for management." Ian occupied the magpie's nest in advance and said to Barry·Allen.
Hear the words.
Barry·Allen swallowed directly.
"I can't do it... I can't deliver food. I have other jobs." He seemed to be afraid that Ian would arrest him and deliver food too. Flash's thinking is sometimes so strange.
"That's such a pity. You are my uncle Barry - I will buy you medical insurance. Aren't you interested? If you work for thirty years, you will be promoted to a shareholder."
The temptation of Ian made Barry·Allen's mouth twitch wildly.
He wanted to faint again.
At this time, Jonathan, who had made dozens of calls but no one answered, came back from the side holding his cell phone with a worried look on his face.
"Dad's phone still can't be reached."
He had a bad premonition in his heart.
"I'll go look for dad right away." Ian thought of Reverse-Flash's words and felt a little uneasy. He grabbed the battle uniform that Flash took off and walked to the burst water pipe to clean it.
Aquaman and Mera's heads are still buried in Fish Tank, blowing bubbles.
"You don't actually need to help me wash clothes, you'd better go find Clark and Diana." Barry·Allen was awkwardly helped by Jonathan and sat down on the concrete in a ruins.
He scratched his head in embarrassment, "Actually, my leg will be completely healed soon. I can wash my clothes myself. I may be able to support you later."
Flash has always been interested in being a superhero.
However.
The sound of water not far away is still there.
No response.
After a while.
Ian walked out with wet hands, followed by Jordan who looked guilty. This sturdy boy held a stack of banknotes in his left hand and a familiar electric saw in his right hand.
"Don't worry, Uncle Barry, please take good care of yourself."
Ian showed the smile of a sunny boy, "My Franklin has already told Jordan for me. He will ensure that your legs are always in Schrödinger's ideal condition."
Kent Family's youngest son seems quite considerate.
However.
Barry·Allen was not happy at all.
"What are you doing?"
Barry·Allen didn't dare to look more. If he looked more, he was afraid that he would put his hands on the ground and run away Speed Force--I saw that the boy not far away had already put on his uniform.
Literally forcing himself into his uniform.
The red and gold tights stretched funny wrinkles on Ian's body, the mask hung crookedly on the back of his head, and the ill-fitting uniform looked rather cheap.
"Obviously, I am now the core member of Justice League - Flash." Ian found a way to join Justice League, and he once again used his traditional performing skills.
Master of hacking.
There is no account in this world that Ian cannot steal. There are only accounts that he wants to steal or has not yet stolen. The previous Batman incident has successfully verified how superb his account stealing methods are.
The world only knows superheroes.
No one cares who the person under the superhero uniform is.
uniform.
This is the essence of heroes!
"?????" Barry's mouth opened into an "O" shape. This was more uncomfortable than when he saw Iris dating another man - at least that time the other man didn't wear his uniform!
"I am Flash!" Barry protested weakly.
"The uniform is on me, who knows?" Ian blinked and began to wrap the exposed wires around his body, "Justice League can't live without me, I mean can't live without Flash."
He promptly corrected his statement, and the good second brother next to him immediately started praising him.
"I know this, Flash is an indispensable member of Justice League, just like 3 District D cannot live without My Little Pony!" The second brother's words directly silenced everyone in the room.
Also includes Ian.
Jordan, who seemed to realize that he had said something wrong, quickly ran to Jonathan, the gentlest brother in the family, who was helping Fish Tank, Aquaman and Mera, who seemed to be unable to heal their injuries.
"Ian said that Atlantean would use kelp to heal his injuries after being injured. He didn't find kelp, but gave me these seaweeds." Jonathan is pasting seaweed on the two superheroes in Fish Tank.
The same style as Nori Seaweed.
"Let me help you."
Jordan is going to be an ostrich in this area.
However.
"You have to come and guard Uncle Barry!"
Ian still called him back again.
Jordan had no choice but to return to the ruins of the living room, sit down next to Barry·Allen, and put the chainsaw in his hand, which he did not intend to go to the warehouse in vain, on Barry·Allen's lap.
"Sorry, Uncle Barry, Ian gave you too much..." Jordan had already begun to apologize in advance while Barry Allen was trembling. Barry·Allen, who knew that the naughty kid could do anything, quickly looked at Ian again.
"But, you don't have Speed Force, how can you pretend to be Flash?" Barry·Allen could no longer care about complaining. He stared helplessly at Ian, who was hanging wires on his body.
"I can pretend I have."
Ian took out his own micro nuclear reactor, connected it, and debugged it. Then, a blue arc appeared on his body, and finally, he fiddled with it and turned it into a yellow arc.
"Few people know that I am actually a top student." Ian felt the electric current constantly stimulating his body and spoke softly without any hint of showing off.
[Berserker Experience+1]
He turned up the current.
The arc on his body became more intense.
It's just that the damage isn't high.
"Your brother is about to be electrocuted by himself!" Flash smelled the fragrance of his uniform. He shook the boy who sat next to him crazily and used a chainsaw to suppress his broken leg.
Barry·Allen felt that his battle uniform had been scrapped, but he didn't want Superman's youngest son to be scrapped too.
"Ian has his own plan." Jordan did not move, as steady as a rock, and the chainsaw pointed steadily at Barry's plaster leg. Both he and Jonathan knew who the smartest child in the family was.
"Yes, I have my own plan, Uncle Barry. Now that you have lost your body, you can't tell that this is my Speed Force resonance. I don't blame you. Flash is just so generous."
Ian's voice also successfully brought electronic music.
He couldn't really make his muscles tremble to such a blurry level. Fortunately, Flash's classic hood only exposed his mouth.
As long as your mouth can tremble.
"How? There are always more solutions than difficulties. This time, it is impossible to get beaten, because Ian is still at home, but Flash will go to support Justice League who is extremely loyal to him." Ian first glanced at the dumbfounded pirated Flash, and then looked at his second brother seriously.
"It's time to say your lines."
He reminded in a low voice.
"Oh oh."
Jordan quickly lowered his voice after reacting.
"Run, Ian, run... you are the fastest man in the world." His tone was ups and downs, which made Barry·Allen on the side straighten their necks and express themselves very wonderfully.
"Here we go! Run!"
Ian directly tied the thighs of two Time Wraith to his legs - Time Wraith, who was moving wildly, took him out and ran out. Four legs were faster than two legs.
"Whoosh!"
Ian really succeeded in finding a way to steal the speed that only Speedster deserves without having to pay the price - the real Speed Force flashed on the outside of his legs!
"Bang~"
Ian that crashed through the wall.
It seems to have become Speedster.
He ran very fast.
It's just that it's a little difficult to control the direction when turning.
Not a big problem.
It's completely OK to use teleport to control steering.
