Chapter 288: Meditation Mites Believe in Darkseid
My name is Albert Swan. I am Reverse Flash now, but I will soon become The Flash.
I am running fast now, with my biggest rival in my life, my most familiar old friend, my most hated enemy, my most admired idol, Barry Allen.
"Swan... let me go! Now is not the time for us to fight!"
During the extremely fast running, Reverse Flash heard that The Flash's voice was a little lost, which was a sign of exhaustion.
The speed force could unreasonably accelerate everything The Flash touched, which is why The Flash would not rub against the air at high speed when running with others, burning others into skeletons.
Therefore, the sound emitted by the opponent shrouded in the speed force should also be clear and audible. However, at this time, the sound began to blur and tremble, which meant that The Flash's speed force was plundered and absorbed by the reverse speed force he controlled, and he was getting slower and slower, while in contrast...
I was getting faster and faster.
"You will kill the whole earth... Swan! You will also kill your future! You are - committing - suicide -"
The voice of Barry the Flash seemed to become more and more distant, as if it came from the horizon, and in contrast, the grin of Reverse Flash was:
"Barry... Oh, Barry! Look at you, poor and helpless Barry!"
The surrounding scenery was like fast forward, leaping madly behind him, and two red and yellow figures were running along the sea, and the raised sea water was like a sky curtain spreading across the sky.
At the edge of the horizon, the warm sunlight began to shine on the two of them. At this moment, they had already left the American metropolis at night, where Darkseid landed, and ran to the other side of the earth.
"The Earth is destroyed, and you get nothing!"
When the face of Reverse Flash appeared beside Barry, running with him, the red shadow stretched out his hand anxiously, and grabbed Reverse Flash's shoulder while running at such a high speed:
"What do you want, Swan? Kill me? Are you willing to let the whole Earth be buried with me for this? No! The Justice League still needs my help. I am an important fighting force in the league. We must hold back Darkseid in order to--"
"You can get rid of Darkseid's Omega rays, but you can't hurt him at all. Can this be considered an important fighting force?"
Reverse Flash taunted mercilessly: "Save it, big hero, it's our turn now. You can't imagine how excited I am for this moment, and how much preparation I have made."
Strands of black and red Reverse Speed Force climbed onto the body of the Flash, contaminating his originally yellow Speed Force bit by bit.
"What are you doing--"
"Devouring you, baby, devouring you. But this is just one of the things I'm doing." Reverse Flash said, "There's one more thing besides this."
"You..." Barry hugged his head.
He felt countless knowledge erupting from the reverse speed force that Reverse Flash forced into his body, shooting into his mind.
"Use the Speed Force to create an unstable parallel universe... and exile the enemy..."
"That's right, Barry, that's right. This is a technique invented by you in the future, and it is no less destructive to the timeline than the Time Residue."
(Note: Time Residue is an advanced skill of using the Speed Force, that is, the Flash actively creates a time paradox, such as traveling back to one minute ago to help himself fight one minute ago, but this will also cause himself to stop traveling one minute later, thus creating a paradox, causing the self who traveled through to disappear after being corrected by the timeline. But before disappearing, he can still fight as a fighting force.)
The Flash held his head, and he felt that his body's movements had been somewhat sluggish. It was the Reverse Flash who was affecting his actions by injecting the Reverse Speed Force into his body: "What do you mean, Swan? What exactly do you want to do?"
"Oh, Barry, Barry, poor Barry. Isn't what I'm going to do obvious enough?"
Then he heard the Reverse Flash's grin ringing in his ears, and the next moment the Flash felt that he was pushed hard by the Reverse Flash, and the Flash, who was running at high speed, suddenly lost his balance and fell.
He spun like a top, rolled, jumped, fell, and then hit a tree that a man could hug and fell into the mud. This place seemed to be in a mountain jungle with few people, and there were trees everywhere.
Thanks to the protection of the speed force, Barry was unharmed - well, I'm afraid that's not the case.
He lowered his head and looked at his forearm that had just healed.
It was broken because of a hit by Darkseid before. He just used his self-healing ability and his own skills to connect the broken bones and grow them again. However, at this moment, it twisted out a weird arc again. Obviously, it was broken again.
But Barry had no time to pay attention to this. He looked at the Reverse Flash who rushed towards him like a whirlwind. After the afterimages of the two people simply exchanged a few moves in the woods, soon, the red shadow was pressed against a big tree by the yellow Reverse Flash. The Reverse Flash's fist fell on the Flash like a rainstorm, and Barry could only hold his head.
He keenly noticed that Reverse Flash had no intention of killing him. After all, if Reverse Flash really wanted to kill him, the supersonic knife would obviously be more dangerous than this kind of painless punch. Therefore, although Barry was thinking of countermeasures, on the surface he still held his head and let Reverse Flash attack.
"I want you to die heroically in the battle against Darkseid!"
The more Reverse Flash beat, the more excited he became, as if all the expectations and grievances of these years were gathered in his fist.
"Then I will replace your name! I will make you disappear in history! I will make your name unknown! I will make your relatives, friends, and everyone forget you!"
"I will make everyone forget your merits and achievements. When you open the history books, everyone will only remember that Albert Swan was the famous Flash later!"
"In the history I created with my own hands, no one will remember you, Barry Allen, you will be drowned in the documents of history-"
He stopped the continuous beating, then grabbed Barry's neck and lifted him up from the ground.
"I hate you, Flash, I hate you. This is my purpose! I want you to disappear!"
In response, the Flash just looked at him indifferently.
Then he suddenly asked: "Can you defeat Darkseid in this way?"
"You...what do you mean." Reverse Flash was a little confused.
The other party's reaction was completely different from what he imagined.
"My question is, as long as I open that parallel universe, I can defeat Darkseid, right?"
"How stupid, I won't let you return with honor, Barry. And ordinary parallel universes can't hold Darkseid. Unless someone has been squatting there to guard, it's only a matter of time before Darkseid breaks out of the cage."
"So...?" asked the Flash.
"So what I taught you is to use the Speed Force to create a mutually destructive version of the parallel universe." Reverse Flash said: "You need to be forced to release the Speed Force to transform the parallel universe, and anchor this parallel universe you just created, which has no past and future, and is even extremely unstable, so that you can really trap Darkseid."
He sneered: "But doing so is simply exposing yourself to the Speed Force. You will be kidnapped by the Speed Force, Barry.
Like the fate of every Speed Force user, we are all destined to become part of the Speed Force, either forced or actively choosing to embrace the Speed Force forever in exchange for the powerful force to favor us for a short time!
"That would be the best. "
"What? "
Reverse Flash was stunned for a moment. He looked at the face of the Flash that was stained by the Reverse Speed Force. The face that was originally full of solemnity, full of worry, and full of vigilance against him suddenly showed a smile as blue as the clear sky behind them.
"I mean, it would be best if that were the case." The Flash said: "I already know how to create a stable parallel universe. I should go and save the world."
"Are you deaf? Didn't you hear me? Once you do this, you will be kidnapped by the Speed Force immediately!"
"I know."
"What are you talking about?"
Then Reverse Flash heard the Flash's voice: "I know the consequences. But sometimes we have no choice."
Reverse Flash didn't speak. He listened to the Flash's last sentence: "I have made all preparations."
...
...
...
Meditation Mite.
"Thunderbolt Explosion!"
Boom!
"What good will it do you to join Darkseid, Meditation Mite? "
Wonder Woman swung the Lasso of Truth, using it as a whip, and with one whip she smashed the huge stone that was attacking her. Then she was blown away by the magic explosion hidden behind it by the meditation mite. She got up from the ground with a dusty face:
"Since you are determined to join Darkseid, why don't you attack me? Come on, don't hide!"
The meditation mite was unmoved. He lightly stepped aside and tried to sneak attack Shazam from behind. The opponent's body at this time was not much bigger than a thumb, but even in this situation, the meditation mite still easily found him.
He loudly mocked Shazam who tried to sneak attack.
"Do you think you can beat me? Do you think that as long as you cast a shrinking spell on yourself to sneak attack me, the problem will be solved perfectly? Do you think that I will be so stupid that I will not notice what little tricks you are doing if I absorb too much magic power?"
The meditation mite told Billy:
"I am a wizard with hundreds of years of experience."
"No, you are a fake wizard, a bug who always wants to look down on everyone! "
But his voice was immediately refuted by Billy in a louder voice. Billy, who was in a shrunken state, jumped up and attacked the tentacles of the meditation mite. Although his body became smaller, it was obvious that Billy successfully used the correct magic and his strength did not decrease at all. The huge body of the meditation mite was thrown away by him alone.
"But I will try to pity you, because I can understand the feeling of being treated roughly by someone taller than me, so I will give you another chance - surrender!"
However, the evaluation of the meditation mite is as follows.
"Extremely stupid."
He turned his body in the air like a dragon.
Shazam restored his normal size in an instant, and huge lightning struck the meditation mite, but the experienced wizard created a huge light.
"Evil light shrouds, blinding quickly!"
In an instant, Shazam's attack suddenly deviated to an unknown place.
"The void is transformed, and the giant hand appears!"
"Get out of here, you big bug!"
Green Lantern Hal flew behind the meditation mite. He tried to support Billy, but was knocked away by the meditation mite in an instant. Two huge hands made of sea-blue magic energy stretched out from the mite's hairy squirming body, and punched Hal, who was already in a bad state, and flew out.
Wonder Woman tried to lasso the meditation mite, and she did succeed, but soon he found that she had lassoed the Green Lantern Sinestro.
Throughout the battlefield, the opponent was in a state of neither passive slacking nor fully exerting his strength. The meditation mite used some kind of spell to deflect Wonder Woman's attack.
"Oops..." Wonder Woman, who realized that she had lassoed the wrong person, could only abandon the Lasso of Truth, then crossed her arms, and the two wrist guards collided violently, colliding with the meditation mite's magic fist in a violent explosion. One of the magic fists was immediately blown to pieces, but Wonder Woman was also thrown high by the shock wave.
The rogues attacked the meditation mite, but soon they found Steppenwolf standing in front of them.
Meditation Mite turned his head and looked at Shazam.
"Now we are the only ones left."
"For my father, for justice and fairness..." Shazam endured the pain in his body and stood up again.
He roared at Meditation Mite: "I will defeat you!"
"Wait, your father?" Meditation Mite said: "Didn't Batman tell you that I controlled your father's mind and sent him to be a spy to infiltrate the Justice League?"
Shazam was stunned.
"What did you say?"
"Oh, it seems that Batman doesn't completely trust you either, Billy."
The meditation mite said: "I control your father's mind, and I know his thoughts very well. It is impossible for him to come here solely on his own conscience. Your father doesn't care about you at all, Billy!"
"No! You are lying about my father!"
"What I said is absolutely true, because I want you to understand that the meaning of fighting is a waste of effort. If you join my society, I will treat you well, far better than your father can."
"Join your society?"
"Although the people on our continent call us monsters, it does not mean that this is the case."
The meditation mite said:
"We are outsiders like you, abandoned, despised, lost, and lonely by society. You are the same, and I am not alone."
The meditation mite said: "So I choose to serve Darkseid, because he can give me what I want."
"He can give me everything I want!"
