"After my previous discussion and research with Barry, there are countless relatively independent multiverses outside of our universe."

In the watchtower of another universe, Cyborg slowly explains to everyone what the multiverse theory is.

"In principle, our various multiverses will not affect each other, and it is even difficult for them to intersect."

"However, in some specific cases, there are channels between the multiverses that can be connected and shuttled between them."

"It's like Barry's speed power is itself the key to unlocking the multiverse."

With the establishment of the Justice League, Batman, a big dog family, funded it, and various research facilities are relatively complete.

Cyborg has also studied the multiverse, and the Flash himself has the speed power to travel through time and the universe, so they are no strangers to the existence of the multiverse.

"Damn, Barry was kidnapped by them to another universe?"

Getting the Flash kidnapped by those people to another multiverse made everyone feel a little unbelievable.

"I think we need to figure out why they invaded our universe and kidnapped the Flash in the first place?"

Wonder Woman also raises a very important question, most criminals have some kind of criminal motive, and these people from another universe want to kidnap the Flash.

"That's what I've always wondered about why they kidnapped Barry alone."

"And I noticed that they seemed to have made a very good plan for coming this time, and they should have come specifically for Barry, creating a bank robbery, just to lure Barry out."

Batman agrees with Wonder Woman's question, and he thinks about it carefully, because their motives may be the key to seeing the problem.

"In fact, Barry once told me that in most universes, there are Flash-like Rushers who control the Speed Force and guard the universe they are in."

"Because under some kind of crisis that is enough to destroy the entire universe, only the Flash has the power to reverse time and save the universe."

Cyborg slowly said what he knew.

"Could it be that their universe has suffered some kind of special crisis, so it is necessary for the Flash to reverse time and save the universe?"

At this moment, everyone remembered that not long ago, the Flash of their universe shuttled from the future, gathered all of them, and defeated Steppenwolf in advance.

It is precisely because of the existence of the Flash that they did not let their universe fall into a hellish apocalypse.

"However, if this is really the case, then where did the Flash who guarded their universe go?"

Aquaman slowly spoke, asking the question of his heart.

"Perhaps, the Flash of their universe, has disappeared for some special reason......"

"As a last resort, we can only come and kidnap our Flash to save their universe."

Steelbone guessed, but he didn't expect that his guess was actually very close to the answer to the question.

……

"Unfortunately, these are just our guesses."

"And the most important problem we face at this moment is that Barry has been kidnapped by them into their universe, and I don't know what kind of terrible experience he is facing alone."

"And we, on the other hand, can only waste our time on these inconsequential things, and we can't go to help Barry!"

It was the first time Superman felt so powerless as he had at this moment, and he clenched his fists and slammed them on the conference table, instantly stopping the rest of the discussion on the issue.

"That's right, whatever the reason, we're going to do everything we can to save Barry!"

Batman also said with a serious expression, even if he didn't think about the fact that not long ago, the Flash had saved them all.

Just because they and Barry are companions fighting side by side, they can't afford to sit idly by while Barry is kidnapped.

"So, what exactly are we going to do now to save Barry from those people?"

Aquaman slowly stood up and asked the crowd, and he agreed in his heart to rescue Barry as soon as possible.

"Perhaps, we are not completely out of chance!"

"Although my research on the multiverse is still very shallow, I can't use the power of technology to create a spatial channel to connect the multiverse."

The steel bones also slowly stood up, with a mysterious expression on their faces.

"However, when I had just cracked the device they left behind, which could open the portal, I found that the device was not damaged and could still be used, but it lacked a special energy to open the portal."

Steelbone's gaze looked at the device that could open the portal.

As he studied the device closely, he felt a very familiar feeling in it, as if this particular device had been created by him.

It's just that he created it in the future.

"Victor, are you sure that you can restore it and successfully open the space-time portal?"

Clark's gaze was instantly drawn to the steel bone, and he asked with some expectation.

"Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find the kind of special energy that can activate this teleportation device at the moment, and if Barry is still around, his speed power should be the best energy to activate this device......"

However, there was a hint of regret on Victor's face, the person who made this device obviously surpassed him in terms of technology, and the other party had some kind of special energy to open this device instead of God Speed Force.

"Isn't this another stalemate, Fack?"

Aquaman also slammed his fist on the table with anger and helplessness at this moment.

Fortunately, this conference table was made by Batman using some kind of special metal, otherwise it would have been smashed by the two of Superman and Aquaman's extremely powerful two at this moment.

"Do you need speedy energy?"

However, compared to the disappointed expressions on the faces of the others, Batman seemed thoughtful.

"Actually, at this moment, in our universe, there is still a guy who has mastered the speed force!"

Batman suddenly spoke, and everyone in disappointment couldn't help but light up in their eyes.

……

At the same time, in another universe.

The Flash and Superman and the others who kidnapped him looked at the huge black eyes above the earth outside the space station and did not speak for a long time.

"What the hell is this?"

After a long time, the Flash finally spoke and asked the most doubtful question in his mind.

"Actually, we don't quite figure out what this thing is!"

"Although it can be seen with the naked eye, it is not anything that can be touched, and humans have tried to attack it with nuclear bombs, but it has not had the slightest effect."

"The nuclear bomb passed through its surface without any effect, and the explosion inside it, a huge shock wave, did not affect it in the slightest, as if there was no longer a dimension between the two."

At this moment, Superman, who was standing next to Barry, slowly opened his mouth to answer the question in the Flash's heart.

"Only humans have thought of resisting, don't you have ......?"

"Of course we've acted, and I've even flown into that darkness myself!"

Superman seems to know what the Flash wants to say, and as heroes who protect the earth, they naturally can't watch as these huge black eyes disturb the harmony of the earth.

However, Superman seemed to recall an extremely bad memory, and even involuntarily revealed a trace of fear in his extremely determined eyes.

"However, it turned out that I was almost completely lost there, bewitched by that strange eye, which completely activated the dark side of my heart, and became a puppet controlled by the dark side!"

I don't know how terrifying the experience is, even Superman almost got lost in it, and almost became the puppet of the other party.

"How is this possible, you are a superman, how can you have a ...... in your heart"

The Flash felt incredulous, he had the impression that Superman was the most sacred being, and that he should not have such a terrible dark side.

But, as if thinking of something, the Flash suddenly stopped, because in their universe he had personally experienced the horror of Superman after his blackening.

"That's right, I'm just a superman, not a god, and my heart is full of complex emotions like a human being!"

Clark shook his head, he had never considered himself nobler than humans, and he had all the same emotions and desires in his heart.

It's just that he can suppress all kinds of desires and anger in his heart, showing kindness and protection for human beings.

Over time, humans even worshipped him as a god.

"Barry, we've studied this particular aura of darkness, and it doesn't seem to be any kind of matter or energy that we know it is."

"But it can trigger the deepest hidden dark side of human hearts, and anyone who has come into contact with this dark breath will find it difficult to get rid of its control, and become a crazy puppet that is stimulated to the dark side of the heart and controlled by it."

Cyborg slowly spoke, explaining.

"Some call it the source of all evil in the world, and some call it the opposite of light, the ultimate darkness."

"There are also some scientists who think that it is just a special energy that we humans have not yet explored, such as dark matter and dark energy......"

"There are even religious believers who worship it as a god, the supreme god who guides all human beings to evolve and move towards eternal life."

"The faithful reveled in its coming, scrambling to offer themselves to their gods for the arrival of the great darkness!"

The steel bone spoke slowly about the extreme chaos caused by the appearance of this black eye, but his face seemed to have long been numb.

"And this black eye, with the dedication of countless people, has gradually grown, from a range of only a few kilometers in diameter, in less than a month, to now a range of nearly 10,000 kilometers, occupying nearly one-fifth of the diameter of the entire earth."

"The earth has gradually stopped turning itself even under its shroud, and the side shrouded by it has been plunged into extreme darkness forever!"

At this moment, just listening to them, the Flash could also feel the despair in their hearts.

Such a terrifying existence is not an existence that can be defeated and expelled by one's own strength.

"So, what do you need me to do when you kidnap me?"

At this moment, the Flash seemed to have understood in his heart why they would go to the universe where they were and kidnap themselves here.

In the face of a crisis of the level of cosmic destruction, it is not surprising to make any decision that has a chance to save the world.

Just like the last time he forcibly reversed cosmic time and saved Earth ruled by Darkseid.

"We have a plan, a plan that bets everything, but we don't know if it's going to work!"

Superman's gaze retracted from the strange dark eyes, stared at the Flash tightly, and then said in an extremely serious deep voice.

"And this plan needs your help!"

……

Soon after, they took the Flash into a special laboratory on the space station.

And in the center of the laboratory, there stands a very special-looking device.

The overall appearance is like a huge treadmill that has expanded several times.

"It's ...... What is it? ”

The Flash circles around the giant "treadmill" and finally discovers that it does seem to be just a giant treadmill.

Of course, after all, the Flash's own research on science and technology is relatively scarce, and in the Justice League organization, Cyborg is the researcher of all science and technology.

"As you can see, it's a treadmill!"

The steel skeleton spoke slowly, finally confirming that the device was indeed a treadmill as it seemed.

"Of course, it's not a simple treadmill, but a cosmic treadmill created specifically for the speedsters!"

Then, Cyborg added again.

"Cosmic treadmill? Created specifically for the Speedsters? ”

At this moment, the Flash seemed to know the reason why they needed their help.

"That's right, the cosmic treadmill can help the speedy person establish a connection with the speed force, concentrate the huge speed force energy in his body, and make it burst out with unparalleled power, and even in some cases, the burst of power is enough to destroy the entire universe!"

Cyborg explains the role of the cosmic treadmill for the Flash.

The speed force itself is one of the basic forces that make up the existence of the universe.

When used properly, it can not only reverse the time and reality of the universe, but even burst out with the power to destroy the entire universe.

"And our plan is for the Speedy to run fast on the cosmic treadmill, condense a large enough speed force, and then through the amplification of this watchtower, gather into a speed cannon, and then attack that weird dark eye!"

"The Divine Speed Force Cannon has the effect of ignoring time and space, and annihilating everything from the root!"

"Perhaps only the Divine Speed Force Cannon can attack that dark energy that is not in the same dimension and completely defeat that strange dark energy."

This is the special plan they have devised to destroy that strange dark energy.

Use the treadmill to gather the energy of the speed force and charge the speed force cannon.

Then completely defeat that dark energy and restore the Earth to normal.

Of course, this is only the general direction of the plan, and there are many more detailed plans in it.

For example, after successfully eliminating the threat of that strange dark energy, how to restore the rotation of the earth, as well as the potentially polluted continents and oceans, and how to deal with those who actively or passively dedicate themselves to that dark energy.

If they can't recover with the disappearance of the source of darkness, I am afraid that they will have to be wiped out by cruel means to completely eliminate all threats.

And it will be a very painful and difficult decision for them.

As for restoring the planet, it was naturally done by Superman.

When the time comes, he will venture into the core of the sun and absorb plenty of energy.

Then burst out with its most powerful force, thus pushing the stopped earth to continue to rotate slowly.

"You guys, it's crazy!"

At this moment, even the Flash, after listening to their entire plan, couldn't help but feel a strong shock at their crazy plan.

"I'm sorry, we don't have anything else to do!"

It's not Superman or others who want to make such crazy plans.

It's just that dark energy is too weird.

It was so strange that they had tried countless methods and schemes, but they couldn't dispel it, and they couldn't even have any effect on it, so that it could not cause a trace of chaos.

It was also when they tried countless methods and did not make any progress that Superman insisted on entering it himself without stopping the advice of others.

Eventually, under the influence of the aura of darkness, the dark side of my heart erupted.

The Flash, who once sacrificed because of them, has become a lingering regret and nightmare in Superman's heart.

He blames everything on Batman, believing that it was Batman's actions that led to the Flash's sacrifice.

He almost became a puppet of that strange energy, and finally woke up the bewitched Superman with Batman's sacrifice in front of him.

At that moment, even though Superman felt great regret, it was already too late.

……

"No wonder, I haven't seen the Batman of your universe yet!"

It was only at this moment that the Flash finally understood why there was no Flash or Batman in the Justice League of the universe.

It turns out that they have all sacrificed for the sake of this universe.

The Flash understands that when they formed the Justice League and dedicated themselves to protecting the safety of the entire universe, they were already destined to protect the safety of the universe at any cost.

Even if they die unfortunately in the process, they have no regrets.

But he was equally saddened and saddened by their sacrifice.

I also understand the situation of the remnant.

Except to watch the Earth be engulfed by that strange dark energy, they have no choice but to give it a go and make a plan to save their world at any cost.

"Well, I've got an idea of your situation and your whole plan at the moment."

The Flash's gaze was fixed on the giant cosmic treadmill, as if he was pondering something.

"Barry, in order to complete our plan, we have no choice but to kidnap you from another universe!"

"But that doesn't mean we're going to force you to help us with this plan that we don't know if it's going to work."

"We just wanted a chance."

"A chance to complete the plan and save this place!"

"In fact, we can't deny that this practice is somewhat selfish, and there is a kind of moral kidnapping!"

"And you, don't care about that, just follow your heart and decide whether to help us complete this plan!"

"If you refuse, then you can go back to your universe and forget everything that happened before, and we will never stop you from leaving."

Superman looked at the Flash who was contemplating, and said slowly with a determined expression.

Subsequently, he directly asked the steel bone to open a spatial portal to the universe where the Flash once was.

The rest of the people didn't stop this, because it was a decision they had made before they left for the other universe.

They can give up their moral bottom line and be selfish for the sake of their own universe.

However, you can't force anyone to make a choice they don't want to make.

What's more, the plan itself does not know whether it will succeed or not.

If it fails, it could make the situation worse, and even all of them could be sacrificed because of the failure of the plan.

So, they decided to leave all the choices to The Flash himself.

If they are lucky enough in this universe, then the Flash will stay and help them with their plans.

And if they are unlucky, then there is no need to continue.

……

There is no doubt that this is a moment of truth that will decide the fate of all of them.

Everyone present looked at Flash with their eyes, waiting for his final decision.

Although their faces were expressionless, they didn't want to put too much pressure on the Flash.

But their hearts, contrary to their flat expressions, are very nervous.

After all, the Flash's choices determine the fate of them and the entire planet.

The clock ticked by.

The Flash was still brooding, and didn't make his choice quickly.

And for everyone, every second at this moment is as long as years.

The scene was very silent, and the pin drop could be heard!

No one spoke, interrupting the Flash's thoughts and choices.

There is only a portal that flashes with blue light, and it makes a "buzzing" sound from time to time, which seems to remind the Flash that he can choose to return to his universe at any time.

"I'm sorry I reject your plan!"

Suddenly, the silence of the scene was broken by a voice, and the moment the Flash's words sounded, although everyone tried their best to hide it, they still couldn't hide the disappointment in their hearts after all.

"I'm sorry, Barry, but we've caused you unnecessary trouble, you can now go back to your universe......"

Superman looked indifferent, as if he didn't care about Flash's refusal, pointed to the portal in front of him, and apologized to Flash.

"You may have misunderstood, I just rejected the plan you made!"

However, the Flash did not walk directly into the spatial portal, but turned to look at everyone and said slowly.

"Actually, I think I have a better plan than you!"
