[Super Bat] The third type of god

"It turns out that those gossips are true..." After a long time, Barry was still in shock, unable to recover for a long time, "You fell in love with Bruce Wayne! That's why you chose to help humans and stayed on Earth. Touching."

Clark knew that those gossip speculations were outrageous, but he still felt a little subtle when he heard it with his own ears. He clarified: "It's not true. I grew up on a farm in Kansas. I came to the earth when I was very young. A pair of human beings The couple adopted me."

"……what?"

"I had to hide my human identity in order to protect my mother," Clark said.

Barry understood, and comforted him, "You must be working very hard."

Clark was noncommittal.

After carefully putting away the signed poster, Barry quickly ate another slice of pizza, with a little apology in his eyes: "Sorry, Superman, but I'm really hungry... I have to work three part-time jobs a day, and I always come to ran away."

While Barry ate, Clark gave him the general picture.

"Bruce doesn't actually belong to our time and space, he comes from five years later."

Barry stopped and asked, "It doesn't make sense. If he came from five years later, what about the current Bruce, where did he go?"

"Listen to me, Barry." Clarke patiently explained, "There are no two Bruce, only him from beginning to end. The future me died at the hands of Doomsday, and Bruce happened to get an antique mug, he thought Prevent me from being killed, so this cup made a deal with him."

Barry was confused: "Was that cup sent him back to the past? But how is it possible..."

"That's not an ordinary cup. Later we found out that it was an artifact cast by Cronus. It didn't manipulate time, but sent Bruce's obsession back. The future Bruce was not affected in any way, he would think I had a dream myself, I didn't get any cups, and I didn't go back to the past."

"Wait, wait...let me understand..." Barry's mind was spinning fast, trying to understand Clark's abstract words, "That is to say, that cup added future memories to Bruce in this timeline , didn’t he directly bring his whole being from the future back to the past?”

"According to Queen Hippolyta, it should be."

"So the multiverse was formed?" Barry muttered, belatedly realizing something unusual, "Hippolyta? Isn't that a character from Greek mythology? Wait, Superman, you just said, Who cast that cup?"

"Cronus, the father of Zeus."

Barry: "?"

"They're real, Barry, and Zeus is Wonder Woman's father."

Barry: "...wow."

Barry was stunned for a moment, then suddenly asked: "Then I can work with living gods in the future?"

"you can say it this way."

Barry exclaimed: "It's incredible..."

Clarke went on to say: "Later we wiped out Doomsday, and I also proposed to Bruce, and he fulfilled his wish, and was taken away by the cup."

Barry subconsciously asked, "Where are you taking it?"

"Probably outside the world? I can't feel him." Clark sighed softly, "The cup feeds on human will and belief, it 'eat' Bruce, and this is the reward for fulfilling Bruce's wish. "

Barry nodded knowingly: "Then what are you going to do now?"

"Stop that proposal, let Bruce stay first, and then find a way to deal with that cup."

Barry didn't answer right away. He ate another piece of pizza, thought for a while, and said, "But it failed, right? If it succeeded, you couldn't come to me because Bruce had already stayed. But this There's a time paradox that can't be explained...time is a complicated thing, and sometimes I don't fully understand it."

"This is not the first time you and I have met, Barry, I saw you last night at my proposal."

Pointing at himself, Barry asked in surprise, "My future self?"

"You took me back to the past to stop the marriage proposal. But it was a step late. When I arrived, Bruce had already taken the ring and disappeared. Then you also arrived at the scene and brought me back to the future."

"So it really didn't work out."

"I was thinking, if we were faster this time, would we be able to successfully stop the marriage proposal?"

Barry poured cold water on him: "No in theory, it's like an endless loop. You failed, so come to me, and we will go back to the past. Then you see me in the future and know to come to me for help , I will stand here and talk with you."

"What if we go back to an earlier time?"

"No, absolutely not, you can't talk to your past self about anything that will happen in the future! It would have immeasurable consequences, time has its own laws, it corrects itself. Maybe one or two people are wiped from the timeline , it could be the entire city, or even the entire planet. Don’t underestimate the butterfly effect caused by changing the timeline, trust me, you don’t want to see that happen.”

Clark: "..."

"We have to minimize the risk." Clark said, "I will stop the proposal faster this time, and if it is a cycle as you said, I will try my best to break it."

Barry agreed: "We can try."

"Do you have time now?"

Barry was taken aback: "Of course, what's wrong?"

"Go to Gotham, the Justice League meeting hall, Wonder Woman and Aquaman have arrived." After Clark finished speaking, he threw the dark red uniform over.

Barry took it and changed into his clothes, and said in surprise, "Is it so urgent?"

The moment he was dressed, Superman flew into the air by the junction of the back of the uniform's neck.

Barry: "?"

During the high-speed flight, Barry was almost blinded by the wind, and asked loudly, "Superman, is this the VIP seat?"

"It doesn't count."

-

Barry was very excited when he met Diana and Arthur for the first time, especially when he saw Diana, he became visibly nervous, and even introduced himself by mistake and said his name backwards—Hello Barry, I It's Diana.

Everyone was successfully amused by him.

Superman bought food for 30 people and put it on the conference table.

"You said you'd be hungry after a high-speed workout."

"Thank you, Superman!"

After signing the agreement to join the Justice League, Barry came to the open space outside the conference hall and told Clark the precautions for going back to the past.

"I've never taken anyone into the Speed ​​Force before, and this is the first time, I don't know if it's going to happen. Well, since you've met me, it should work. In the Speed ​​Force In the power', you will see a lot of things, the past, the future, the present... It will dazzle you. But you must follow me closely, otherwise you may fall into the vortex of time and space, and you will never come back The most important point is that if you really go back to the past, you must never mention what will happen in the future to your past self.”

Clark nodded in understanding.

Arthur said, "Diana and I will stay here until you come back."

Diana said, "Come back safe, Clark, Barry."

Entering the Speed ​​Force requires a long run-up to reach the corresponding speed. Fortunately, there is a wilderness outside the conference hall, and there is enough space for Barry to display his ability.

Barry was right, the Speed ​​Force is a wonderful thing, and when his speed reached the critical point, Clark entered an ethereal space.In Speed ​​Force, time seems to be not just a concept, but a real line.

It is composed of countless fragments, and the pictures made up of those memories are constantly flashing before his eyes. The past is like a floating shadow, which is clearly close at hand, but far away. The only thing he can touch is Barry Allen who is still running .

In addition to the past, Clark also saw more other scenes, those scenes were very strange, perhaps this is the future that Barry mentioned.

Suddenly Clark saw Bruce's bat fighter, which was a model he had never seen before, and a nuclear bomb was hanging under the fighter, galloping towards the sea.

"Bruce!" Clark rushed over almost without hesitation. He no longer cared about the consequences or the price. His only thought was to save him.

"Attention, Superman, the exit is just ahead... No, where are you going! Come back!" Barry tried to stop him in panic, but Superman's speed was almost the same as his, so he jumped in vain, "Oh, damn it!"

The nuclear bomb exploded the moment Clark arrived. He hugged Bruce tightly in his arms, wrapped him in a cloak, and rushed into the sky.

Clark said angrily, "Why don't you call me? I said that as long as you call 'Carl', I will appear in front of you. Do you really want to die like that, Bruce?"

"...What?" Bruce looked at him blankly, completely out of the situation.

Only then did Clark see clearly that the Bruce under the mask was a completely unfamiliar face. He was much younger than the Bruce he knew, with a handsome appearance and a thinner body.

why is that……

Young Bruce asks, "Who are you, do we know each other? If I'm not dreaming, we're... flying in the air right now?"

"I'm……"

Before he finished speaking, an invisible force suddenly swept the two of them away—it was Barry who rushed over, and he brought Clark and Bruce into the Speed ​​Force.

All of a sudden, everyone was spinning, Clark was so uncomfortable that his pupils were dizzy, his arms were so weak that he could hardly hold Bruce, and in a dizziness, he caught a glimpse of a flying red and blue figure, obviously it was himself!

So he let go of his hand decisively, and threw the young Bruce in that direction.

After that, the passage of the Speed ​​Force returned to calm.

Barry broke down and shouted: "I told you, Superman, don't run around, or you will fall into the space-time vortex! I almost failed to bring you back! The exit is ahead, you must speed up, otherwise you will not catch up of!"

Clark knew he was in the wrong, didn't say anything, and rushed towards the exit in silence.

This time, he saw himself kneeling on one knee yesterday, and the kryptonite ring that Bruce picked up.

"No, Bruce, don't say yes, no!!!"

He missed.

He was one step too late after all.
