Chapter 368: Future Crisis
As the boy stopped in the conference room of the Owl Court, the blue electric light on his body gradually dissipated, revealing his true face.
The boy had broken blond hair and a childish and handsome look.
He wears an old-fashioned pair of goggles and wears a yellow uniform with a circular lightning bolt mark on the chest of the uniform.
Seeing this, Lex frowned slightly, and slowly walked behind Depp.
Depp looked through the mirror of the introduction and was surprised to see the name of the comer.
Wally West: Lightning Kid
Main ability: Speed Force.
Favorability: Trust.
Depp didn't expect that Wally West would take the initiative to find him.
No one would believe that this kid had come here by accident.
After all, Wally West is known to be the fastest person in the DC Universe.
His speed far surpassed that of his uncle, Barry Allen, the Flash.
He is one of the founders of the Flash Kid, three generations of Flashes, Teen Titans, and has also joined the Justice League.
But....
Depp suddenly thought of something, and his brows immediately furrowed.
Because he realized that at this point in time, Barry Allen was even a kid in his early teens.
So Wally West, who is Barry Allen's nephew, can't appear in front of his eyes at all.
Because, this kid hasn't been born at all!
Linked to the ability of the speed force, Depp has already determined one thing.
In the future, there must be a crisis that cannot be solved, which leads Wally West to the present more than ten years ago, and finds himself or Lex.
"Good morning, Uncle Depp."
Wally West took off his goggles and said familiarly.
However, instead of seeing the excitement of his mentor, his face was full of sadness and anxiety.
Looks like this kid knows me well...... Depp walked over, gave the other party a bear hug and said, "Good morning, Wally, it looks like you're in some trouble?" ”
"You can recognize me? It's amazing, you know, in this day and age, I wasn't even born yet. Wally said curiously, "Could it be... Uncle Depp also once traveled to the future through the speed force? ”
Depp shook his head and said: "I haven't traveled through time, in fact, I don't have such an ability now, and these shouldn't be the point, the point is that you are here for you?" In the future, what will really happen? ”
Hearing this, Wally looked at Lex behind Depp and did not speak.
Seeing this, Lex immediately understood that the following conversation should not be something he could hear.
Thoughtful, he immediately said, "I think I should go back, and when the time comes, I will contact Wayren and Lucius to study these Kryptonians together." ”
Saying that, Lex was worried again, physically, he was just an ordinary person, and he couldn't hold the two wooden boxes and the Kryptonian corpses in them.
Seeing this, Depp immediately activated the speed force, and in an instant, he sent Nexus and two wooden boxes back to his villa in the small town of Smallville.
Lex sat on the bed, looking at the wooden box next to him with the corpse, his expression glazed.
"Speed Force... Future... Volley West..."Lex murmured, his eyes gradually hardening, "It seems that there are many mysteries in this world that I don't know. But don't worry, I'll peel you back layer by layer, and then make the most of it. ”
Back in the office of the Owl Court, Depp saw that Wally was still standing in place, and immediately said: "Don't be restrained, Wally, we can sit down and talk." ”
Volly West sat down in his chair with an anxious look on his face, and he said, "Actually, I came from a world fifteen years later, and through the cosmic treadmill developed by Uncle Depp and the speed force, I was able to travel through time and countless planes to get here. ”
"Countless planes?" Depp immediately captured the small details in Wally's mouth.
Wally nodded and said: "Yes, the cosmic treadmill can allow speed runners to travel through time and space, before coming here, I have been to more than ten parallel universes, but in those universes, there is no news of Uncle Depp." It can even be said that in other parallel universes, Uncle Depp may not exist at all. ”
When Depp heard this, he didn't speak, which was actually completely consistent with his previous guess.
Before that, Depp also considered questions about the multiverse.
The biggest possibility is that he only exists in the current parallel universe, and in other parallel universes, there is no Depp.
In those worlds, it was still the main stage for Bruce, Clark and others.
They may be righteous, they may be evil, or they may be crazy.
But no matter what, in those parallel universes, there is no Depp to help and guide their actions.
In other words, the parallel universe in which Depp himself is located is actually a universe that is different from all films, television and comics.
And the biggest difference is that in this parallel universe, there is more Depp.
Depp settled down for a moment and asked, "So that means, Wally, you are from the future of this universe, so you recognize me, right?" ”
"That's right, I'm from the universe where Uncle Depp exists." Wally clenched his fists and said: "However, in the future, there is a real big crisis in our universe, and even Uncle Depp, who is the hero leader of the whole universe, cannot stop it at all. ”
When Depp heard this, his eyes narrowed, and he asked in a deep voice: "What will happen in the future?" ”
Depp's brain was running rapidly, and his mind kept flashing the DC comics and movies he had seen in his previous life, thinking about what kind of crisis would happen in the future!
Is it Crisis on Infinite Earths?
Or is it "Darkseid War"?
Or "The Three-Body Problem" or "Evil Eternal"?
Or maybe Injustice?
In short, there are countless major events in the DC universe, and even Depp can't guess what will happen in the future.
Wally West didn't know what Depp was thinking, he pursed his lips and said: "Actually, the main reason for the future crisis is from you, Uncle Depp. ”
"Me?!" Depp was shocked: "Could it be... Did I become the villain? ”
Wally West nodded heartily and said, "That's right, fifteen years later, the Depp Group has swallowed up Uncle Bruce's Wayne Group, Uncle Lex's Legacy Group, and Uncle Green Arrow's Quinn Group and other large enterprises, becoming the most powerful company in the world, and even the most powerful organization. ”
When Depp heard this, he subconsciously touched his chin, and couldn't hold back his smile, looking like Nicolas Cage.
When he saw Wally looking at him incomprehensibly, he immediately smiled awkwardly but politely, and said, "You go on." ”
When Wally West heard this, he had to continue: "After this, Uncle Depp, you decided to let the Depp Group start a global war, intending to control the entire earth, and then eliminate all crimes on the earth according to your own will. ”
"Uh... It sounds a bit like Injustice, but it seems like I'm taking Clarke's place? Wait, Bruce and Clark, aren't they trying to stop me? Depp asked puzzled.
"Of course they stopped you right away." Wally said: "But it is useless, fifteen years later, you are so strong, you seem to have obtained all the abilities of the heroes of the earth, and no one is your opponent at all!" ”
"Not to mention, there are many superheroes on your side, and all your enemies are powerless to resist."
"That sounds pretty cool." Depp said, suddenly thought of something, and immediately asked anxiously: "Wait a minute, Selena and Mera, are they still safe after fifteen years?" ”
Because Depp suddenly thought that in the plot of the Injustice universe, Clark's blackening was because his beloved Louise and the child in Louise's womb died because of the Joker.
So Clark in the Injustice universe is determined to eradicate all crime on the entire planet.
But in Wally's mouth, Clarke's role seems to have been replaced by himself.
In that case, could Selena and Mera ......
Depp can't imagine such a scene, if such a thing really happens, Depp feels that he really has the possibility of starting to blacken and becoming a dictator like Clark in the Injustice.
Even, Depp felt that he might do something more extreme, he didn't mind killing criminals all over the world to sacrifice his beloved's blood.
However, Wally's words made Depp's heart suddenly relaxed.
"No, Uncle Depp, Aunt Selena and Aunt Mera are both very safe and strong." Wally said: "The two of them are also your biggest help. ”
"But if they didn't have an accident, why did I turn black?" Depp asked puzzled: "Also, if I am really blackened, why do you dare to come to find me fifteen years ago?" Aren't you afraid that I have been preparing for fifteen or even twenty years for that moment, isn't this the same as throwing myself into a net? ”
Hearing this, Wally smiled and said, "Sure enough, Uncle Depp at this point in time is righteous!" ”
"What do you mean?" Depp asked.
Wally explained: "Because in the future, the members of the Justice League will find out that Uncle Depp, who suddenly became tyrannical and dictatorial, does not seem to be the real Uncle Depp. To put it simply, everyone thinks that the guy acting as Depp doesn't seem to be you, but another person pretending to be you, or... Somehow occupies your body. ”
Snatch away!
This was the first question that came to Depp's mind, and this question also made Depp nervous immediately.
If he is taken away by some existence in the future, then Selena and Mera around him will unknowingly fall into a dangerous situation.
He may be able to ignore who controls the world, but he can't even ignore Selena's safety.
"So, you want me to go fifteen years from now, and go head-to-head with the man who disguised or took me?" Depp frowned slightly and said, "But why do you think that I am now enough to defeat me fifteen years later?" ”
"Because Uncle Bruce said that he discovered Uncle Depp's secret, and as long as you come fifteen years later, you will definitely be able to gain the same power as you are."
Bruce...
Depp secretly said in his heart that if it was Bruce, after fifteen years of observation and analysis, it was indeed very likely that he would find that he had a system.
In addition, after one to fifteen years, you will be able to acquire the same abilities as your future self.
So in other words, fifteen years later, his ability should be related to the comics released by Depp Group in the two worlds of DC and Marvel.
In the future, the spread of comics will be widespread enough that when those superheroes see the corresponding comics, they will automatically gain abilities.
And that really makes sense...
However, Depp still wants to confirm the truth of the matter.
"I can't fully believe it from your words alone, and if you want me to accompany you back fifteen years later, then you need to come up with some stronger evidence to prove that what you just said is completely true."
Hearing this, Wally took out his mobile phone from his arms, and after unlocking it, he opened the album, clicked on the only video in it, and handed it to Depp.
"Uncle Bruce said, as long as you have that monocle, you'll know I'm not lying."
Wally said with some trepidation.
Even with Bruce's assurance, Wally is still a little worried about Depp in the end and still doesn't trust himself.
Depp took the phone and clicked the play button of the video.
In the video, Bruce is wearing a dark blue suit worth hundreds of thousands, sitting at the table.
However, compared to the current Bruce, there are some more undetectable surrounds on his forehead in the video, and his skin is slightly loose.
Bruce says:
"Depp, I'm Bruce Wayne, I hope you can recognize it."
Through the mirror of the introduction, Depp confirmed that the identity of the man in the video is indeed the real Bruce Wayne.
"When you see this video, it shows that our world is suffering from a huge crisis." Bruce paused slightly, then said, "And... This crisis is beyond my control. ”
"Of course, the specific situation, Wally should have said more or less before he showed you this video."
"So, I hope you can help us come with Wally to the world fifteen years from now."
"Don't make us wait too long, the world can't afford more war and more anger from that [Depp]."
After the video played, Depp handed the phone back to Wally and said, "You're right, Wally, this is indeed Bruce." I think I can go back with you, for the sake of this world. ”
No, it's for Selena and Mera!
Wally took over the phone, and when he heard Depp's words, he breathed a long sigh of relief and said: "Whew~ Thank you Uncle Depp, it seems that our world has been saved!" ”
Seeing this, Depp flicked the kid lightly and said, "Don't be too happy, maybe I'm not that guy's opponent at all." ”
