Thirty-Two, a World without the Flash
Thinking that Harrison Wells might have been replaced by Reverse Lightning, Rorschach suddenly felt that it was not a very good decision to acquire Star Labs.
Unless you solve the trouble of reverse lightning first.
Luo Xia would not want the technology in his hands to be stolen by Reverse Lightning.
"Bruce, Diana, I suddenly remembered something."
Rorschach pointed to the photo of Harrison Wells and said, "This man is a super criminal."
Bruce Wayne was ready to take a private jet and set off for Central City. Hearing what Rorschach said, he immediately stood up and asked doubtfully, "Rorschach, how did you know... By the way, you are from In the future, just tell me what crime he committed!"
"He killed Harrison Wells."
Rorschach spoke surprisingly, but quickly explained: "This man, named Albert Swan, code-named Reverse Lightning, is also a super criminal from the future world. He is the old enemy of Flash Barry Allen. In order to defeat Flash , Traveling through time and space in reverse lightning, trying to kill the young Barry Allen..."
From the perspective of the audience, Rorschach simply told Bruce Wayne and Diana about the reverse lightning.
Both of them had serious expressions on their faces.
The origin of the speed force, the time paradox, the speedster, the tachyon accelerator, etc., all kinds of terms made it difficult for them to digest for a while.
"I find it really hard to adapt to this world when I'm with you..."
Bruce Wayne thought he could quickly adapt to this world of supernatural powers, but the reality quickly slapped him in the face and told him, no, you didn't adapt at all.
He sighed: "Rorschach, don't talk about the paradox of the origin of the speed force, you know, tell me, is the one called Reverse Lightning still a speeder?"
"It's a speedster, but it's not..."
Hearing Rorschach's tricky answer, Bruce Wayne wanted to hit someone, but considering that he couldn't beat Rorschach, he finally had the patience to listen to the other party's explanation:
"Reverse Lightning can't continue to draw power from the Speed Force, so his speed has completely disappeared, but he has an artificial substance to replace the Speed Force, allowing him to have the speed of the speedster, that is, the tachyon acceleration device. This device can The only disadvantage of providing him with speed is that after his speed is exhausted, he needs to recharge it."
Charging for two hours, loading b for five minutes.
Of course, the ratio is not that exaggerated.
In the story of The Flash, Reverse Lightning relies on the tachyon acceleration device to keep its speed crushing the Flash.
It is also worth mentioning that even if Reverse Lightning caused the particle accelerator to explode and artificially created the Flash, he still could not return to the future world at his own speed.
Even if he has faster speed than The Flash.
Rorschach's understanding of this is that most of the speed of reverse lightning comes from the superphoton accelerator, and the most important thing in traveling through time and space is not speed, but the speed force.
Therefore, in Reverse Lightning's original plan, he planned to absorb the Flash's super speed force, allowing himself to break through the barriers of time and space, thus traveling through time and space.
"In other words, he is still a very dangerous superpower?"
Bruce Wayne now feels a little tired whenever he hears about superpowers.
Diana comforted: "Don't worry, Bruce, leave this kind of super criminal to me and Rorschach, and you are responsible for acquiring the Star Technology Laboratory."
Bruce Wayne gave Diana a blank look, expressing that he didn't want to talk to this woman.
He looked at Rorschach again and asked, "But you said that Reverse Lightning will create a particle accelerator explosion. Only in this way can Barry Allen establish a connection with Speed Force. If we capture Reverse Lightning now, then the Flash will Will it still appear?"
It should not appear!
Luo Xia didn't even think about it, and said, "To tell you the truth, the world without The Flash would be a better place."
The two of Diana expressed their incomprehension,
Rorschach explained: "Because The Flash, or the speedster, especially likes to travel through time and space and change the past, which will create various flashpoints, or reset the timeline..."
"Sounds like he likes to cause trouble!" Bruce Wayne concluded.
"That's almost what it means, and now that the Flash hasn't been born, it's the best time to kill the Reverse Flash, because once the Flash appears and the Reverse Lightning reappears and connects to the Speed Force, he won't be able to be killed," Rorschach said. Said.
"Why can't he be killed? Is he immortal?" Diana expressed difficulty in understanding.
Rorschach rubbed his chin, and tried to make the logic simple: "Because Reverse Lightning is a person from the future world, we kill Reverse Lightning, it belongs to the event that hasn't happened, it belongs to the future, and in Reverse Lightning's timeline Inside, his death belongs to the past. For any creature, death may be the present or the future, but it is definitely not the past. The point of the speed force bug is that the future reverse lightning will know that it is dead In the past, and then escape the timeline affected by the death of the past..."
Bruce Wayne and Diana looked at Rorschach blankly, knowing that they didn't understand.
"Let me give you an example..."
Rorschach decided to give an example, "Bruce, you have a son named Damian in the future, and now I travel from the future and kill you, will your future son disappear and be erased from this timeline?"
Bruce Wayne's old face darkened, and he nodded: "Yes."
"But if your son Damian is a speedster, then he will be able to travel through time and space and escape death before his father's death spreads to the future timeline." Rorschach felt that he had explained it clearly.
In the story of The Flash, the ancestor of Reverse Lightning chose to commit suicide in order to stop Reverse Lightning.
I thought that the death of the ancestor would completely end the reverse lightning, but the speedster is a kind of existence that can transcend time. The future reverse lightning still escaped the spread of death and became a ghost that has been separated from the timeline.
"I understand what you mean, that is to say, as long as there is no Speed Force, then the death of Reverse Lightning is really dead." Diana said in a concluding speech.
"Yes, but there will still be a bug in this timeline. If the Speed Force does not appear in the entire timeline, then the future Reverse Lightning will not cross over and kill Barry's mother..." Rorschach said.
Isn't this an endless loop?
Reverse Lightning artificially created the Flash, and restoring his own speed is one aspect. In fact, the most important point is to let the Flash reappear in order to fix this bug.
"So, why is there such a thing as the Speed Force?" Bruce Wayne felt very tired.
Luo Xia quickly comforted the two and said: "But don't worry, the timeline has a strong self-repair ability, it depends on how the timeline will fix this bug."
"Then is my son a speedster?" Bruce Wayne asked suddenly.
Rorschach gave him a blank look: "No, I just gave an example."
"In this case, do you have any evidence that Reverse Lightning killed Harrison Wells? If so, I will go to Sheriff Gordon immediately." Bruce Wayne immediately brought the topic to serious business in order to hide his embarrassment superior.
Bruce Wayne is still the most active in fighting criminals.
"Of course there is, but I only go straight to the approximate range."
Rorschach recalled how Reverse Lightning was found out in the story of The Flash. It seems that the adoptive father of the Flash joined forces with the police in Star City to find the real Harrison's body.
"Reverse Lightning buried the real Harrison Wells' body near the car accident, and just need to find Dr. Wells' body, wouldn't it directly prove that Dr. Wells in Star Lab is a counterfeit? "Rorschach said.
"I'm going to go to Sheriff Gordon now and ask him to help contact the police in Star City and Central City to collect evidence." Bruce Wayne planned to return to the Batcave immediately and put on the Batman suit.
