Chapter 417: The Flash: Days of Future Past

parallel world.

Gotham, Wayne Manor.

On the roof, long-haired Barry handed the uniform to the recently rescued Supergirl Kara-El, and turned around on his own initiative. Kara, basking in the sun, disappeared from her weak state. She tore her gown into shreds with a casual pull, revealing her perfect body with graceful curves and eight-pack abs.

hum!
There was a turbulence in the void, and Cheng Long walked out holding a head.

Kara stopped pulling up her pants abruptly, and looked at the handsome and elegant man in front of her with a dull expression.

"good body!"

Cheng Long opened his eyes wide, looked him up and down, and gave the most honest evaluation.

"Who? Who is talking?" Long-haired Barry, who had his back to Kara, heard the voice and wanted to turn around but stopped. He was curious about the sudden voice, but was afraid to turn around and see Kara's body.

Susu!

Kara quickly put on her uniform and stared sharply at Cheng Long and the head in the other's hand.

There was blood still flowing from under his neck.

This man looks like an executioner.

"Whose head is this?"

"Darkseid, the dark lord of Apokolips, the infamous ruler."

Cheng Long replied truthfully.

After Darkseid was beheaded by his sword, this guy's head and body had actually lost their life characteristics. Unexpectedly, the head floating in the control, after being quiet for a while, could actually emit Omega rays and send itself to another parallel universe of DC.

Supergirl and the long-haired Barry with his back to them are obviously a branch of the Flash's plan to use the speed force to travel into the past and change the established facts in order to clear his father's name.

The Speed ​​Force is a strange, different-dimensional space located in a higher dimension that contains all possible knowledge of time and space. At the same time, the Speed ​​Force is the source of the Flash's speed. It was created by Barry Allen and exists between every part of the electrical energy and entity in every dimension, every universe, and every era.

The specific abilities of the Speed ​​Force include exceeding the speed of light, penetrating objects, and traveling through time and space.

When the Flash is in the state of super speed, he can control time and space and even enter a time loop. This ability enables the Flash to change history at critical moments and avoid disasters.

But this will also create different timelines, leading to the birth of the multiverse.

The DC universe that Cheng Long is in right now is a parallel universe that should not exist. There is no Aquaman, Wonder Woman, Cyborg, Superman and other members of the Justice League here. Even before Barry appeared, even the Flash no longer existed.

In this world, Gotham is known as one of the safest cities in the world. As a result, Batman lost his job fighting criminals and had to stay in Wayne Manor, living day by day in a daze.

"He's Darkseid?"

Kara's pupils suddenly contracted, it was obvious that she had heard of this name.

But this is normal. Darkseid himself is the ruler of Apokolips, the most terrifying planet in the DC worldview, and one of the most terrifying and powerful New Gods in the DC multiverse.

"Yes, he tried to invade my woman's home, so I killed him!"

Cheng Long replied calmly.

At this time, Barry, who had long hair and his back to the two of them, couldn't help but turn his head back.

"Oh my god, you, you are actually holding a human head?"

"Hey, Barry, look carefully, this is not a human head, it's the head of an alien New God..." Cheng Long threw Darkseid's head at Barry's feet as a prank, and the long-haired Barry was so scared that he disappeared on the spot in a flash.

Kara smiled and asked curiously, "How do you know his name?"

"Because I know the short-haired Barry below. They are actually the same person, just from different time and space..." At this point, Cheng Long changed the subject and asked knowingly: "Where is your cousin? I can't sense his presence on this earth."

"It seems you are indeed from the same place."

Kara thought of what the short-haired Barry said before she went upstairs, and her guard was lowered a little. Then she looked up at the sky and said, "Before those Kryptonians in the sky arrived on Earth, I always thought I was the last son of Krypton. I didn't expect that these exiled criminals would survive because they were exiled to the Phantom Zone."

"So Superman has never been to Earth? He either fell on Krypton or was stranded on an alien planet, right?"

The movie "The Flash" did not explicitly state that Superman died, it just said that Kara and Superman's hibernation pods were separated. Although Superman was still a baby at the time, it was not impossible for him to survive.

"good."

Kara nodded.

At this moment, Barry with short hair ran up from downstairs. When he saw Cheng Long for the first time, his eyes lit up immediately, and he walked up to him excitedly and said, "Oh my God, Mr. Long, you are really still alive?"

"Why, isn't it a surprise that I'm alive?"

Cheng Long's mouth corners slightly raised. The fact that Barry recognized him meant that he and he were from the same DC universe, and not the Flash from some parallel universe.

"No, no, I just feel very happy to meet you."

Barry, who had a worried look on his face just now, immediately calmed down when he saw Cheng Long.

When he came forward, he found the head on the ground and said in surprise: "No, it's Darkseid's head, why is it so fresh? Mr. Long, when did you get here?"

"Just now."

Cheng Long knew very well the purpose of Barry's questions.

Because when Barry disrupted the normal timeline, created a new timeline, and formed a parallel universe, the Justice League had been established for some time and had stable work.

"But when I came to this parallel universe, more than a year had passed since you blocked the Apocalypse space fleet in the starry sky. Diana was very sad at the time and wanted to find you like crazy. If Long Yi hadn't kept saying that you were fine, she might have gone crazy."

Barry was very envious of the relationship between Cheng Long and Diana. After Long was hit by the rays shot out from Darkseid's head and disappeared, Diana seemed to have lost her soul and was in a daze.

Even though Long Yi repeatedly emphasized that Cheng Long was not dead, Diana was still so worried that she couldn't eat or sleep well.

If the other party was not a demigod, he would surely become thinner day by day.

"In that case, I must go back as soon as possible."

Cheng Long originally wanted to wander around in the parallel universe, but now that he knew Diana missed him very much, there was no need for him to wander around anymore, even though the Supergirl Kara in front of him was good-looking and had a sexy body.

But considering that after Kara landed on Earth, she was imprisoned by mercenaries in a base in Siberia and suffered torture and research for a long time, he gave up the idea.

It goes without saying what happens when a woman is detained for a long time.

"Mr. Long, do you have a way to go back?"

Barry's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his face flushed with excitement. "Of course, there is a special energy in this head, a power containing the Omega effect. As long as you master this power, you can travel through time and space." When Cheng Long was sent away by the Omega ray, he controlled Darkseid's head with his mind and brought this head to this parallel universe.

Studying Omega rays is indeed a way of returning home.

However, even without the Omega rays, he still has plenty of ways. For example, his clone Long Yi is a very good plane coordinate. Cheng Long can completely sense the existence of the clone and use his great magic power to tear the void and travel back.

But this behavior is too rude and may cause unnecessary trouble.

God exists in the DC universe, and he is omnipotent, similar to a saint in the universe.

Even if he summoned Yuanshi Tianzun, Yuanshi Tianzun might not be able to protect him in someone else's main battlefield.

So you have to be low-key.

"That's great, this way I can also hitchhike back to my original world." Barry was so excited that he almost jumped up when he learned that Cheng Long had a way to go back.

From the time he lost his speed force until now, he has been thinking about going back all the time. However, losing his speed force is equivalent to losing his return ticket.

We can only place our hopes on our counterparts in parallel universes.

But the long-haired Barry next to him has been happy since childhood, leading a carefree life, and his behavior is particularly eccentric, so I don't understand his heart at all.

It's quite worrying.

"Barry, what should we do if you leave?" said long-haired Barry worriedly.

"..." Barry's expression froze.

Yes, if we all leave, the Zod of this world will capture the Earth and use the World Engine to transform the Earth into a new Krypton, and the lives of billions of people on Earth will be threatened.

"Long, you should know Zod. He is here. We need to resolve this crisis."

Cheng Long did not reply immediately, but turned his head to look at the sexy Supergirl Kara and asked, "You are also a Kryptonian. I need your position now."

"..."

Kara remained silent. Her experiences over the past few years made her hate the humans on Earth. However, not long ago, Barry sneaked into the Siberian base and found that he had found the wrong person, but he still took her out regardless of the danger, which moved her deeply.

"Kara, if it was Clark, he would definitely choose to fight for the Earth. I'm not saying this to make you traitors to your race, but there are many unowned planets out there. Since you Kryptonians have the technology to transform planets into habitable ones, there's no need to kill billions of people to snatch the little broken ball under our feet."

Barry advised with a serious expression.

When Zod invaded the Earth, he had just obtained the speed force and was not very proficient in his own strength. In the disaster that affected thousands of people, Barry had the ability to save a child and the child's father, but because he was unfamiliar with the power, he could only save the child and watched the child's father die.

This incident, like a thorn, was deeply rooted in Barry's heart.

In order to prevent the disaster from happening again, they must repel Zod. It would undoubtedly be best if they could persuade Zod to leave and find a no man's land outside to build a new home.

"Kara, Barry is right. There are not only bad people on Earth. There are also students, waiters, chefs... millions of ordinary people." Long-haired Barry followed and persuaded.

"You saved me. I can help persuade Zod to leave, but I won't help you fight."

boom!
The voice just fell.

Supergirl then took off into the air, soaring high into the sky and disappearing into the clouds.

……

A few minutes later.

Cheng Long followed the two Barrys into the Batcave, and met the Batman from the parallel world in the cave. She looked somewhat similar to the villain Vulture in the Marvel world.

"This head looks like an alien. Is it your trophy?"

Old Wayne looked at the head on the workbench and appeared quite calm. Darkseid's head had rock-like skin and looked more like a stone than a head from a distance.

"That's it!"

Cheng Long smiled slightly, and then wisps of black gas emerged from his palm and wrapped around Darkseid's head.

Afterwards, old Wayne, Barry and long-haired Barry saw a breathtaking scene. The indestructible head melted quickly as if someone had poured sulfuric acid on it.

It took less than ten seconds from skin to flesh and then to skull.

boom!
A ball of surging red energy burst out from Darkseid's brain and transformed into a cluster of burning flames.

The crystal skull, the enchanting red flames, and the dissipated black demonic energy, this combination is weird no matter how you look at it.

Cheng Long held the refined skull in his hand, as if he could not feel any warmth or creepy breath.

"Bruce, I need a quiet room to completely refine this power." It will take some time for Cheng Long to tame this energy. If he wants to refine it instantly, he needs at least the perfection of Daluo Jinxian, or even the cultivation level of Hunyuan Jinxian.

"No problem, come with me."

After Wayne took Cheng Long away.

Barry lay over his desk, writing and drawing, trying to replicate the various opportunities he had in the past to gain super powers and reconnect with the Speed ​​Force.

"Barry, you already have hope of going back, why do you want to take the risk of being struck by lightning?" Long-haired Barry was very resistant when he first learned that he would be struck by lightning for gaining abilities.

Since he didn't look like dying, he felt that Barry shouldn't take the risk, after all, the process was extremely dangerous.

"I can't put all my hopes on dragons, and..." Barry stopped talking abruptly and didn't continue. There were some things he didn't know how to say to Long-haired Barry.

Long-haired Barry frowned and said, "Are you going to hide this from me again?"

"It's not that I'm hiding it, but this has never happened in your world, so there's no need to tell you."

"Okay, you're right no matter what you say. When you want to talk, be sure to tell me. I'm curious about your personality and why it's so different from mine..."

After a while, Wayne returned with a cup of coffee, picked up the blueprint that Barry was writing and drawing, and said, "You want to create an accident and become the Speedster again?"

"The difficulty of leading people through time and space is dozens or even hundreds of times that of an individual. I can't pin all my hopes on others." Although Barry has super speed and can go to any timeline and dimension, he can only travel alone and cannot lead anyone.

Therefore, he must regain his speed and take his destiny into his own hands.

"After regaining your abilities, you can leave at any time. Why do you insist on solving the threat from us before leaving?" Old Wayne really wanted to know the answer.

Barry looked around and saw that Long-haired Barry was not around, so he said, "Because my mother is still alive in this world, I traveled through time just to save her..." (End of this chapter)
