Chapter 395: Krypton's Little Cousin, Young Feelings
Over the next half month, Luke began to assist Barry in building a space treadmill.
Nominally, Batman is building a team and rallying a powerful force to fight against supercriminals.
But behind the scenes, all the funds for those activities were invested in the construction of the treadmill that could travel through time and space.
"It's not easy to hide from cyborgs."
The Flash turned into a red afterimage and quickly ran back and forth around the room, his voice reaching Luke's ears with unmistakable accuracy.
This seems very unscientific, because no matter who is in the case of super-high-speed movement, every word he says will be torn apart by the air current.
But the speed force is so unreasonable, even if Newton and Einstein open the coffin, it can press the two big guys back.
"It's okay, there's Dr. Wayne."
Luke believes in Batman.
Whether it's Thomas Wayne or his son.
Everyone who becomes a Gotham Dark Knight is very good at how to use the trust of their teammates to deceive and exploit them.
It sounds a lot like a derogatory term, but it's actually some kind of alternative compliment.
After all, this is a dark set.
It's impossible for all superheroes to be as sunny as Superman or The Flash.
Batman, like Gotham, acts as a dark hue.
"You seem to be very familiar with us?"
Barry chatted as he worked.
Through these days of getting along, he discovers that Luke, the big Kryptonian cousin, seems to know a lot of things.
Like the formation of the Justice League, and the origin stories of each member.
The other party can say a few words, maybe there are some errors in some details, but the general direction is correct.
This made Barry wonder, knowing that he had never heard of Clark having a cousin in the main universe.
My cousin has one, the supergirl Kara, who is a beautiful blonde.
"Is there anything wrong with that? I'm not the same personality as Clark, Barry. ”
Luke smiled and whispered.
"I'm not as passive as him, always waiting for things to happen and then solving them, I like to take the initiative, so after coming to Earth, the first thing I did was to collect intelligence and analyze data."
Barry stopped, touched his chin, and sighed, "This is more like Batman's character." ”
Luke was noncommittal and continued to look at the video on his computer.
A female journalist named Louise Lane is reporting from the ground in Australia.
During the time when Luke and The Flash teamed up, the "United Dynasty" formed by Atlantis and Paradise Island appeared in the human world for the first time.
Two days ago, Hippolyta, the queen of the Amazons, and the king of Atlantis, together they sent a request for a diplomatic meeting with the countries.
It was an encounter that shocked the world!
The magnitude of the sensation, the scope of its impact, is simply difficult to summarize.
Luke was not surprised, the trade diplomacy between Atlantis in the Marvel world and the land world was facilitated by him.
The media reports, the national reaction, have already played out once in another world.
Luke's only concern is probably that according to the distorted and collapsed inertia of the flashpoint world, this time the peaceful diplomacy will not end successfully.
"Accidents happen, but not knowing when they will happen is a real headache."
Luke tilted his head and thought silently.
The third world war between Paradise Island and Atlantis is the main line of Flashpoint.
"By the way, Luke, have you found Clarke's whereabouts?"
Seeing that Krypton's big cousin was a little distracted, Barry thought that the other party was worried about Superman.
From the mouth of the cyborgs, they knew that there was a secret base under the metropolis and the military's ongoing Superman project.
It's just that, considering that the cosmic treadmill has not yet been built, the Flash did not go directly to the rescue.
"From the first day I came to the Met, I found the location of that secret base."
The corners of Luke's mouth hooked, how could a mere reinforced concrete building stop him.
It's just that after digging deep into the base, he found that those scientists really came up with a lot of research.
For example, the use of lead to insulate super vision, and the radiation light similar to the red sun inhibits Kryptonian cells......
I'm afraid this is also the reason why Superman still can't get out of the control of the military when he becomes an adult.
"Like Dr. Wayne said, I can't act right away, that would alarm the government."
Luke tapped his fingers on the table, as if thinking.
"But the cosmic treadmill is almost finished, and tonight may be the right time."
Barry nodded, he could get the treadmill up to tomorrow at the latest.
If Stellar Labs (.. Labs) are all there, and with the help of Sisko and Catherine, he can cut the time in half.
"I don't know how Clark is doing, but I hope he's okay."
A flash of worry flashed in Barry's eyes, putting "military" and "superman" together, always producing some bad associations.
"I hope so."
Luke stopped tapping his fingers, he felt that after rescuing Superman, he should go to Paradise Island and meet Diana.
It's best to work with The Flash to correct the mistake of Flashpoint World before the accident happens.
This is the perfect script.
……
……
Sydney Opera House, Australia.
Representatives of various countries have arrived and are waiting for Paradise Island and Atlantis to speak.
One from the land and one from the sea.
The alliance formed by these two civilizations and two kingdoms has shocked the world.
In the face of the "United Dynasty", which has a longer inheritance and a more profound heritage, mankind has shown a friendly attitude.
Diplomacy, peace talks, trade, exchanges......
These are all proceeding steadily.
"I don't like to be there."
Diana looked at the silky smooth white evening dress and said with an unhappy expression.
"You are the princess of the Amazons, the best female warrior on Paradise Island, how can you be absent from such an important meeting?"
Hippolyta scolded softly.
"Don't be willful, this is the best moment to show us to the outside world."
Diana pursed her mouth, she could not refute her mother, she could only mutter, "I'd rather go to a fight than wear this costume that is completely unsuitable for combat." ”
According to the usual thinking of the Amazonian female warriors, this well-fitting evening dress is in no way comparable to the armor of battle.
This is true both in terms of defense and the impact on wielding spears and swords.
Can a few patches of cloth withstand the enemy's attack?
"Paradise Island seeks peace, and it can be obtained not only from the battlefield, but also at the negotiating table."
Hippolyta spoke earnestly.
Diana was too young to be trained to become a queen.
"I promise you, when this meeting is over, you'll be free to move and let you go to that human traveler."
Seeing her daughter's reluctant expression, the Amazon queen softened her heart and had to say so.
The young man who left Paradise Island in a hurry seemed to take Diana's heart with him.
"I didn't want to look for him! That guy still owes me a gift, there is a saying in the human world...... If you owe something, it is a natural and absolutely legal act to ask for it. ”
Diana held her head high and argued forcefully.
Hippolyta shook her head, not debunking her daughter's thoughts.
"You have to remember, it's just a human, Diana."
Before leaving the room, the Amazon Queen reminded.
"He may not be ordinary, he can fight the sea monsters of Atlantis alone, and he can leave Paradise Island alone, but no matter what, he is a human being, and his life is too short compared to the lifespan of a demigod."
Hippolyta sensed Luke's extraordinaryness, and the other party had a very faint aura of gods.
It is likely that he was the patron of a certain person on the sacred mountain of Olympus.
It is not surprising that Zeus, Poseidon, Hades and the gods are very fond of living in the human world.
Occasionally, when he is in a good mood, he will give blessings to certain mortals.
Therefore, the attitude of the Amazon Queen is quite good, and she does not treat other mortals as prisoners.
"Humans, what's wrong?"
Diana remembered the vague dream, and Luke, like a mighty warrior, cleanly dealt with the sea monster.
The tall figure, like a burning brand, burned a mark in my heart.
Hippolyta heard her daughter's argument and sighed deeply, looking helpless.
The prince of Atlantis, the young man named Arthur, seemed to have some interest in Diana.
Considering the alliance between the two parties, it would be a good choice if a political marriage could be reached.
It's just a pity that Diana is not interested in this.
"Young people's emotional ......"
Hippolyta sighed.
