Chapter 149: 1+1 & gt; 2
Red was right that he didn't rush forward, because in the purple lightning package of inertia, he could see that the figure of the reverse lightning was changing rapidly, and the yellow tight-fitting suit also disappeared without a trace, turning into a middle-aged man with dull eyes and a haggard face.
Red noticed that his feet were twisted in an eerie way, clearly disabled.
"I'm ...... Where. I remember I was trying to find the cosmic treadmill..... Where is the cosmic treadmill ......"
The original name of this reverse lightning is Hunter Zolemont, he used to be a fan of the Flash, and asked the Flash for help in order to change history and reshape his life, but after being rejected, his personality was distorted, and he detonated the cosmic treadmill, so he gained superpowers.
As it stands, inertia literally stole his time and brought him back to the moment before he gained the speed force.
"Hahahaha, I stole all the time and power after you obtained the speed power, but it's not enough, I still want more people's time!"
It seems that this is the new ability that Inertia has obtained under the guidance of Reverse Lightning, but this kid is indeed full of evil attribute points, and his first reaction after obtaining the new skill is to take revenge and turn his teacher back into an ordinary person.
"Get out of the way, don't get in the way, useless old thing."
Inertia kicked Hunter away, and after staring at Red for a moment, he seemed to sense something.
"I can feel it now, you seem to be in control of the time around your body, right, then I wouldn't be stupid enough to approach you easily."
Although he was seen through by inertia, Red still looked at each other with a provocative gaze.
"That's a pity, I guess you're afraid that you can't control your time as well as me, but it's not surprising, after all, you're just an inferior clone, and it's normal to have a little problem."
Inertia's expression stiffened, but he let out a few dry sneers, then turned his head to look in the direction of Canterlot's downtown area.
"Don't worry, I'll be back and get rid of you bastard later, but before I can do that, I'll have to feed the other speedsters first."
Cracking sound!
Under the envelopment of purple lightning speed, the inertia turned into an afterimage and ran in the direction of the city.
Tsk, didn't you succeed in provoking.
In the case of not being able to use the function of the red light ring smoothly, Red's provocation is not as effective as before, so I can only hope that the scoundrel will help them complete the device as soon as possible-
Boom!
At this moment, surrounded by purple lightning, the inertia suddenly flew back upside down, and it rolled on the ground several times in a row before stopping.
"You don't have to run so far, I'll meet you myself."
I saw little Iris West wearing a red tight-fitting suit with yellow lightning wrapped around his body standing in front of Red, showing a hearty and confident smile.
"How is it, Brother Sword Soul, is my body still suitable? I found it from the ruins of the Flash Museum...... It seems to be Dad's old suit. ”
Red couldn't help but sink his heart as he looked at the yellow speed power light wrapped around little Iris's body.
The color of the speed force in a sense represents the degree of connection with the speed force, except for the inertia from the 30th century with green lightning, the electric light of other ordinary speeders should be red like reverse lightning.
And yellow lightning is almost the iconic color of the Flashes of all ages, so it can be seen that the connection between little Iris and the speed force is no worse than her father's.
However, for this child, the connection to the Speed Force has become stronger, which is not good news.
"Hahahaha, you little Bichi came to the door by yourself to see me steal your time—no."
Inertia quickly got up from the ground, his cold gaze licked the little Iris in front of him like a poisonous snake, and the corners of his mouth curved in a strange arc.
"I should speed up the passage of your time, turn you into an old woman, and then absorb all your time and speed power in one go!"
"Then you have to be able to catch up with me first!"
"Wait, Ellie—"
Little Iris and Inertia started at the same time, and Red could only see the afterimage of the two of them instantly filling the field of vision in front of him.
It was too fast, and without the Time Gem triggering, it was impossible for the naked eye to see the movements of their speedsters.
Only a second later, in the flash of lightning, the two figures bounced away at the same time, and Red knew that although only a second had passed from his own angle, in fact, little Iris and Inertia might have been fighting for a long time.
It seems that the inertia is relatively embarrassed, and it seems that he has received hundreds of punches on his body, but little Iris has been squatting on the ground for a long time, but he still hasn't stood up.
"Hahahaha, how's it going, are you osteoporosis, how much life do you have to waste now?"
Although he did not directly see the course of the battle, Red also roughly guessed the outcome of the battle from the current situation. If you talk about speed alone, it should be that little Iris will have the advantage, but the difference in experience between the two in combat is too big.
Most importantly, little Iris isn't cruel enough.
As a result, no matter how many punches she throws at Inertia, she is only restrained by the force to subdue and stun him, but every time she hits Inertia, she herself suffers from the side effects of the Speed Force.
In the end, it was little Iris who couldn't withstand the destruction of his body by the speed force first.
"Ellie, you're alright."
Red walked quickly to little Iris, and he noticed that the girl's orange hair, which had been as bright as the sunset, was now as dull as dead grass, and mixed with a lot of gray hair.
"No, it's okay...... Brother Sword Soul, no, don't look at me......"
The inertia in the distance seemed to have begun to heal itself with the force of speed, and after a moment's hesitation, Red walked over to little Iris and crouched down, exposing his back.
"Come on, I'll run with you on my back, trust me."
After a few moments, Red felt little Iris lying on his back, and he could clearly feel the child's accelerated heartbeat.
"You should know that continuing to strengthen the connection with the speed force of God is likely to accelerate the decay of your lifespan, right?"
Red whispered, and through the metal can, he could hear little Iris's rapid breathing.
"I know, but I still want to-"
"You're ready to come to your senses, Ellie. Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to stop you...... Drive your speed with all your might, and I'll run with you. ”
Little Iris's arm around Red's neck tightened a little, and she hummed firmly and excitedly.
Thunderbolt.
Red felt that little Iris shared the speed power on his body with him, and the speed around him seemed to be slowed down, and at the same time, the time gem on his right hand also produced special energy fluctuations.
"Hahahaha, are you stupid, divide one person's speed power among two people, do you think you can be faster than me?"
The inertia turned into a purple-yellow afterimage, and he rushed towards the city again, and it seemed that he wanted to attack little Iris's younger brother first, and then increase his speed to come back to decide the victory.
However, Red concentrated his mind and fully drove the speed force given to him by little Iris, and then his body turned into a white afterimage and rushed towards the inertia at extreme speed-
Raptors slash through the air!
"How could it be !!?"
Inertia looked at Red, who was catching up with him at an astonishing speed, with a look of disbelief.
"It seems that the textbooks of the 30th century do not tell you ......"
"1+1, at some point, can be much greater than 2."
