Chapter 193: As Batman, I am on good terms with the villains

You know.

The darkest times will create the most extraordinary achievements. Just as gold often glitters in the quicksand at the bottom of the river, just as the hottest pain creates the coldest Batman, just as...

The fastest man in the world spent his life slowly saying goodbye to his mother.

When we look back on history, we can explain it like this:

This is the moment when everything changes, this is the moment when all things sprout. This is the beginning of light, and the darkest moment, this is a glorious golden age, this is a glorious era of heroes, and it is also an unreachable... past.

We were born in the shadow of this great era.

Through them... his life, achievements, and extraordinary talents, I found meaning and I found faith.

My name is Albert Swan. Now my alias is Harrison Wells.

I was born in the 25th century, that era should be called "the future" compared to now.

At that time, superheroes have become history. They are just objects for scientists to study, or statues placed in museums.

My father is a scumbag. When I was very young, he killed my mother in front of me. I developed a primitive hatred, hating the world and everyone, but this lonely personality helped me avoid wasting my energy on boring socializing and vulgar mutual flattery.

I was extremely obsessed with the 21st century superhero Flash. In order to unlock the source of his ability and the mystery of the speed force, I worked day and night to study.

My life was smooth sailing, and all those who hindered me suddenly died in accidents for unknown reasons. When I was very young, I was given the title of "Professor Speed" for my in-depth research on the history of the Flash and the speed force.

But even if I became an authority on the speed force, I still couldn't touch the essence of the speed force. This fact made me extremely painful.

But a time capsule from the 20th century changed everything. It crashed in Midtown in the 25th century, containing a uniform of the Flash.

I tried to copy and enhance the remaining speed energy on the uniform, and I succeeded. I finally embraced the speed force.

After getting the power, I found that my era was too peaceful and there was no need for superheroes at all.

So I built a cosmic treadmill, and with this time travel machine, I traveled back to the Flash's era, intending to fight alongside him... Well, after going through a lot of things, I finally realized that I didn't want to fight alongside the Flash at all. I wanted to be him, replace him. I wanted to become Barry Allen! I failed. I was defeated by the Flash, and I was shocked to find that I would become the opposite of the Flash, the Reverse Flash I had seen countless times in the museum. I realized why all the competitors on my life path suddenly died in accidents, and why my life was so smooth. Because I killed them. I mean, I got the speed force, traveled through time and space to kill those who might hinder me, and I directly erased their existence from the timeline... From the beginning, I was the Reverse Flash, and this was a fate I could not refuse. The ability to travel through time allowed me to see the truth, I was destined to become the Flash's biggest enemy, and I could never become the Flash. So I became the opposite of everything the Flash wanted to save, the people the Flash loved, those would be what I would take away from him.

I would be better than the Flash, I would be the only person in the world that the Flash could not stop.

So, I traveled back in time again and killed the mother of the Flash Barry Allen - just as the history shown in the museum.

I wanted to make the Flash feel pain.

But unfortunately, my imperfect connection with the Speed ​​Force trapped me in 2000.

I couldn't go back, I couldn't go back to the time when I fought the Flash, nor could I go back to the time when I was born. I was trapped in this primitive society, and my Speed ​​Force was fading.

I gradually realized that if I wanted to have enough speed, enough speed to let me go back to my time, I had to take the initiative to create the Flash!

At that moment, I finally realized why I came here, and I was once again played by the Speed ​​Force.

This may be the history of the Reverse Flash, and it is also my destiny.

So, I killed Harrison Wells and disguised myself as him.

I created the accident that turned him into the Flash. I personally trained the Flash and turned him into one of the greatest heroes in the world.

When he has enough speed to send me back to the future, I can go home and continue my history and my life.

This should be the case, but...

The Reverse Flash, with the face of Dr. Wells, looked at Bruce Wayne who appeared here in silence.

Why did Batman... appear in the Star Lab?

What happened? Is there such a part in history?

Did I cause a butterfly effect?

The Reverse Flash remained calm. While thinking, he started the wheelchair and slowly drove into the hall door of the Star Lab.

"Nice to meet you, Dr. Wilson... I mean professor."

Chen Tao thought about the title of Dr. Speed ​​in his heart, and also looked at the Reverse Flash in front of him.

The two of them held hands together and did not separate for a long time, like close friends who had met again after a long separation.

Chen Tao looked down at Reverse Flash from a high position, while the Flash's nemesis looked at him with ease, easily catching his gaze.

The somewhat tense atmosphere was gradually noticed by other people in the laboratory, and Cisco and Katherine looked at each other.

And Flash Barry Allen stood stupidly beside him, watching his most beloved mentor Professor Harrison Wells and one of the investors of their laboratory, Mr. Bruce Wayne, staring at each other like two fighting cocks, with a big question mark on his head.

"What happened?"

He had a clear and stupid expression, and then Cisco's eyes stopped him from saying the next words.

The banner that was written temporarily at the back about "Welcome Mr. Bruce Wayne to visit" fell to the ground with a thud.

Reverse Flash saw that Bruce Wayne finally looked away from him.

He took out a photo from his body and showed it to everyone present.

It was a report on the Flash.

"Wow, it's the Flash, I like him very much." Cisco said a little stumblingly.

"Yes, yes." Catherine said, forcing a smile: "Does Mr. Wayne like Flash too?"

"Of course, he's a super-famous guy, isn't he?" Catherine felt that Mr. Wayne was teasing him, but in terms of tone, the rich man was as cold as if he had just lost his parents.

He saw the other party turn his head and look at Barry Allen: "Wow, super kid."

Barry Allen, the Flash in his regular clothes, was about to speak when he saw Cisco blinking at him desperately.

Even without the speed force, he still turned his eyelids to leave a residual image.

Barry knew at a glance that he must have a lot to say.

So he quickly started to talk nonsense:

"Ah, yes, I have a lot of superpowers, such as playing the viola web design..."

As Barry spoke, he saw Mr. Bruce Wayne walking closer and closer to him, and Cisco behind him had a completely horrified expression as if he saw a dinosaur eating a chicken.

"Um... I also know sign language, gorilla sign language..." Barry watched him approach his face. He couldn't say anything at last, and said awkwardly: "Whatever, it's fine."

Reverse Flash sat in a wheelchair, quietly watching the farce in front of him.

Everything was under control. Maybe Batman had already mastered the true identity of the Flash, which was not a problem. The establishment of the Justice League was something that would happen on the timeline, and the intersection of Batman and the Flash was also very normal.

As long as it didn't delay his return home, and the career in the Justice League would make the Flash more mature, stronger, and provide him with a faster return home.

This was not a bad thing.

"Silica gel quartz sand material."

He saw Batman easily find the Flash's battle suit that was hidden by Cisco and others before. Reverse Flash could almost see Cisco's face turn pale.

He covered his head in despair and lowered his head.

"This material is wear-resistant and heat-resistant."

Sisko made that expression, and Barry didn't know what to do next, so he could only continue to try to deny:

"Ah, yes, I'm a figure skater, but I like to make my uniform similar to the Flash, he is my idol."

"This is used on the space shuttle to avoid friction and fire when re-entering the atmosphere."

"...The competition in figure skating is sometimes really fierce."

Barry closed his eyes in despair just after saying this, even he knew that such a lie was really clumsy.

The important thing is that Mr. Bruce Wayne came too fast. He gave a message just 4 minutes ago, saying that he would arrive in 6 minutes, and he came in 5 minutes, while Barry was unfortunately three minutes late. When he stepped into the door of the Star Laboratory, Mr. Bruce Wayne was already standing in the center of the laboratory.

He couldn't hide his criminal tools in front of Mr. Wayne.

"Okay," Barry said a little desperately: "I am..."

History began to move forward here.

Reverse Flash sat next to him, observing quietly, while calculating the impact and pros and cons of this matter on him.

Barry Allen was soon exposed by Batman, and then joined the Justice League formed by the other party...

"... I am..."

"... So that's the case, you are really an excellent figure skater!"

?

Cisco looked up, wondering if he had heard it wrong. Katherine opened her mouth slightly, and then immediately realized that this behavior was inappropriate, so she quickly closed it again, and Barry almost couldn't catch his breath.

Reverse Flash's thinking also came to an abrupt end.

"Hahahahahaha!"

Everyone in the Star Lab saw their investor, Mr. Bruce Wayne, first laughed like a fool for a while, then took out a check from his arms, wrote a number on it, and forced it directly into Barry Allen's hand.

"It's nice to have a personal hobby, young man. This money is my personal sponsorship for your figure skating competition. With this money, you have to help me win two Olympic trophies."

How unlucky it is for an Olympic champion to run into Barry. Cisco complained in his heart.

"Ah, thank you, thank you." Barry said sullenly: But I can't accept your money, because...

But he stopped talking when he saw the number on the check.

Everyone in the Star Lab looked at each other, including Reverse Flash, and no one could figure out what was going on.

Cisco was angry in his heart.

After today, he would build a secret display cabinet for Barry, and never put his uniform outside again.

"Hahahahaha..." After giving the things to Barry, Mr. Wayne laughed again, looking not very smart. For a while, only his laughter was left at the scene.

"It's nothing! It's just a little money."

Reverse Flash was still silently thinking about why Batman didn't intend to expose the identity of the Flash now, but suddenly found that Wayne staggered to his wheelchair, then half squatted down, and hugged his shoulders in a familiar way.

"Hey brother, I'm giving your student face like this completely for your sake!"

Who is your brother?

"Well, Mr. Wayne, you..."

"Our relationship is so solid." Before he finished speaking, he heard Bruce Wayne slap the wall next to him, making a crisp sound.

Reverse Flash frowned. The wall was hollow, and his secrets were hidden inside. It couldn't withstand the other party's slap. He was a little unsure whether the other party's slap just now was a coincidence or something else. In short, he felt that Batman's mental state was not right now. He was eager to send him away.

"Mr. Wayne, are you feeling unwell?"

Reverse Flash turned his wheelchair and blocked the wall with his body.

"Don't change the subject!"

But Mr. Wayne turned a deaf ear to what he said.

He still put his arm on the shoulder of Reverse Flash, who pretended to be in a wheelchair, and squatted on the ground for this.

Catherine gave Cisco a look, which meant, is Bruce Wayne mentally ill?

"My good brother, I came to you for your sake. Shouldn't you greet me with a smile... Don't you think so, good brother?"

"Good brother, good brother, my good brother——"

"Swan, Doctor?"

"You..."

The Reverse Flash, disguised as Professor Wells, couldn't help but shudder. For a moment, Reverse Flash almost instinctively wanted to stab the other party's heart with a knife, but killing Batman would undoubtedly cause a tsunami-like butterfly effect, and he dispelled this idea in less than half a second.

He suppressed his shock and anger in his heart and tried to make his voice as steady as possible: "You are wrong, Mr. Wayne, my name is Harrison Wells."

"I know Swan, I understand Swan."

"Uh, Mr. Bruce, you called Dr. Wells's name wrong..."

"What? I didn't call it wrong!"

The Reverse Flash resisted the urge to jump up from the wheelchair.

His heart was full of mysteries.

How could Batman know him? How could he call his name accurately? Is the other party also a time traveler?

But Batman didn't continue talking.

Reverse Flash could clearly see that the idiotic expression on the other's face suddenly returned to a calm state.

His heart was cold.

This was the expression Batman would have.

His originally frivolous voice suddenly disappeared.

Reverse Flash knew very well that the other party had already released the information he wanted to release to him, and now there was no need to pretend. He just watched Batman turn around abruptly and walk towards the door to leave, ignoring the questions of several other people in the laboratory.

He clenched his fist.

He must find Batman immediately as Reverse Flash. The other party has his information and Flash's information, and he has no idea how much he knows.

They need to talk.
