Chapter 381

Southwest Australia.

Nalebo plain.

A red lightning bolt ran along the road.

This is the longest and straightest highway in Australia, with a total length of 90 miles and covering the southernmost end of the whole country.

It has been abandoned for many years, and few people remember the existence of this road except those crazy tourists.

Those truck fleets that occasionally cross the past from here have already changed their driving routes.

After all, no one wants to drive along a straight and long road. The boring and boring along the way will make people sleepy.

However, for another group of people in the world, this road is simply a perfect existence.

Just avoid the sudden kangaroos and Australian ostriches, and you can run at full speed.

A straight and long track is like heaven in the eyes of speeders.

The surrounding scenery became blurred into fleeting light and shadow fragments, and even the wind gradually weakened until it was silent.

The red speedster known as "flash man" seems to be galloping in a vacuum tube, surrounded by golden lightning, like walking in another world, the multi-dimensional absolute stillness of time.

Barry could not feel any material existence, and nothing could hinder him. The wind, air, resistance, everything, disappeared.

Only speed, accelerating speed.

"This is the wonder of God's speed."

Barry thought so.

He used to come to this place to think.

In the process of running at top speed, your thinking will be sharper and faster than usual.

Many difficult problems that cannot be thoroughly studied will be solved immediately.

But today.

Barry just wanted to run and didn't want to think about anything.

A lingering shadow haunted him like a ghost.

Even if he was able to break through the speed of light and surpass time, even if he was the fastest man in the world, the dark shadow hidden in the bottom of his heart always shrouded over his head and smiled at himself as a child.

"No matter how fast you run, it's too late to save everyone - you can't save the people you care about!"

Anti lightning words echoed in Barry's mind.

Space-time is like an unconventional ring, and the starting point and end point are often connected with each other.

Albert swan, a future human being in the 25th Century.

Crazy worship flash, he forgot to eat and sleep, studied the source of his ability, and finally learned the mystery of divine speed.

Swan successfully reproduced the accident that led to the birth of flash and became a new speedster.

With super speed, he turned into "counter lightning", and became the enemy of destiny with the flash man.

Finally, in order to destroy his opponent, he did not hesitate to break the boundaries of time, cross into the past and kill the lightning man who had not yet grown up.

This is the beginning of everything. Time and space are intertwined into a circle. Swan killed Barry's mother, but also contributed to the birth of flash.

The flash made him a speedster, a super criminal nicknamed "anti lightning".

"Barry, we have to learn to accept the things that can't be changed - I accepted my destiny when my parents fell in the dark alley."

Said the dark knight of Gotham.

"But, Barry, you can't forget that this is a blank you can never fill in -"

The nihilistic voice echoed quietly at the bottom of my heart, like a faint light in the deep darkness, attracting people to go to it.

Red lightning is still running, like the giant chasing the sun in ancient mythology.

An unprecedented sense of emptiness filled his body, and Barry felt cold inexplicably.

Even if he was accompanied by family and friends, the unspeakable weakness still wrapped him, as if reminding him all the time——

"You have the ability to save her, but you don't!"

"No, I tried... Mom."

The shadow of childhood came to mind again. Barry stopped running with pain.

He held his head in his hands and said low.

Just as his companion, the dark knight of Gotham, will never forget what happened in that alley.

He could not forget that the woman who once sat by the bed and read the bedtime story gently and quietly died in front of him.

"You watched her die for the justice and faith of the so-called 'hero'! You watched your mother die in front of you. The fastest person in the world can't catch up with you even if time can't catch up, but - you didn't save her!"

The nihilistic voice, like the roar and thunder of the approaching rainstorm, exploded in my mind again and again, laughing wildly against the lightning.

Flash, half kneeling on the ground, closed his eyes in pain.

An irreparable regret is like a hole in the canvas of life. No emotion can fill the grief of losing a close relative.

"Barry, the opportunity is close at hand. Catch up with the time and leave it far behind. You can redeem that regret."

There seems to be another voice in the spiritual world, which is the strong emotion formed by Barry's regret and chagrin.

"Catch up with time... Save regret?"

The flash whispered.

On the highway with no end in sight, the barren weeds and the kangaroos passing through the highway in groups in the distance are about to sink into the warm sunset on the horizon.

Barry looked around blankly. The world was so fresh, real and beautiful.

He is the flash, the Savior of midtown, one of the members of the Justice League, the fastest man in the world and a superhero admired by everyone.

"Mom..."

But now he's like a child lost to his parents.

"Put down the responsibility... Put aside the shackles... Run with all your strength!"

As the breeze blew across the plain, Barry stood up, turned back and looked into the distance.

At the far end, there are friends who belong to his city, love and care about themselves, and insist on accompanying them.

In the other direction, beyond endless time, there may be nothing there.

But there is a gentle woman who is willing to tell him bedtime stories, cover his quilt and sing lullaby.

"Mom."

Barry looked back and waved his hand back as if he were saying goodbye.

The next moment, the red lightning lifted the air flow and turned into an unparalleled streamer.

With a bang, there was a roar in the air, and Barry had broken through the sound barrier.

Golden lightning lingered around his body. Vaguely, he approached the divine speed world that existed in another dimension.

Faster, faster, faster!

With the increasing speed, Barry seems to be racing against time. As long as he catches up with the beam of light in front and exceeds the speed of light, he can open the door of time and space and make up for the hole that exists deep in his heart and can never be filled.

In the normal world, the red lightning has disappeared. The surrounding space is like running water, rippling in circles. The light gradually distorts and flashes into a crisscross fuzzy picture, like a scene formed by the fragmentation of the void, which contains the good memories at the bottom of everyone's heart.

Barry was indifferent and his eyes were full of perseverance.

The golden lightning became more and more intense and almost completely wrapped his body. It was an illusory picture existing in different time lines, just to slow down the pace of the fast person. As long as you hesitate and pause a little, the turbulent flow of time will involve you. From then on, you will be lost in the divine speed force, gradually assimilated and integrated into time and speed.

Boom!

Countless lights intertwined, and the tiny points gradually expanded and expanded. Barry ran with all his strength. He felt like a burning fire, violently releasing the heat and light in his body.

The time when the constant speed flows forward suddenly stops. The red lightning seems to be running in the viscous glue. He is about to reach the speed limit.

"A little faster -"

Like a mountain crashing into a calm lake, there was a roar in the empty space, like rolling thunder clouds.

Time is completely static, like a torrent rushing forward, solidified by an extremely powerful force in an instant.

The whole world seems to be frozen, and even the rotation of thinking becomes extremely slow.

Boom——

There was another loud noise, and the light reversed, like a backward tide.

Everything is falling back quickly.

Like a clock of time, it is constantly fiddled back by the unknown existence.

The world began to regress, time and space reversed!

In the time-space tunnel composed of endless light and shadow, Barry runs at a high speed, and the golden lightning generated by the divine speed force constantly surrounds him and crackles.

The torrent of history flashed away. Many things that had happened, those beautiful, painful, happy and sad, turned into streamers one by one. He didn't look at them, but just wanted to run to the end - the place where they first started.

"Mom."

Barry shouted hard. The white light wrapped him and fell into the deep tunnel of time and space.

At this moment, flash doesn't know yet. His impulse made a group of people in the world outside the wall seize the opportunity.

……

……

Marvel Universe.

"Deal reached."

After hearing the eternal explanation, Luke nodded lightly and said, "I don't mind taking a better trip and making a small contribution to the multi universe facing crisis."

Facing the invitation of the five creation gods of the universe, he agreed with a smile.

As they said.

This is the best chance!
