Chapter 68: Emergency

Looking at Thomas, Ron said:

"Where's the Flash? Did you see that guy? Barry Allen, from Central City. And what was that fast movement you just did? Don't tell me you killed him."

Although Thomas's reaction just now was quick, Ron still keenly noticed the lightning that burst out around Thomas when he moved... If it was from another world, he couldn't be sure, but this kind of instant movement accompanied by lightning, as long as it appeared in the DC world, was most likely related to the Speed ​​Force.

And Thomas... is the Batman of the Flashpoint world. As the Flash Barry changes the world line, the person who died in Crime Alley that day changed from the Wayne couple to Bruce Wayne. In order to avenge his son, Thomas transformed into the Dark Knight...

No, not the Dark Knight, but the more brutal Bloody Knight.

Unlike Bruce who holds the philosophy of not killing, Thomas would not kill easily under normal circumstances, but once the bottom line is touched, he would kill without mercy. Even if it is just to interrogate the other party, he would threaten with direct death.

"..."

Hearing this, there was a moment of silence, and Thomas said in a cold voice: "Tell me about Bruce. I heard you say this name. After this, I will tell you what you want to know."

"Okay, it's a deal."

Looking at Thomas in front of him, Ron nodded, realizing that Thomas might know Barry Allen. But it was obvious that Barry Allen did not tell Thomas more information.

At least, Thomas now doesn't know why the world has become like this.

After preparing his words, Ron raised his head and said, "To put it simply, the people who died in Crime Alley that day should not have been Bruce Wayne, but you and your wife."

Hearing this, although his face was still cold, Thomas couldn't help but grit his teeth.

Thomas could feel that he was constantly suppressing his inner excitement. But in the end, he couldn't suppress his desire. With the sudden golden flash and red light, Thomas turned into a shadow and crashed into Ron at dozens of times the speed of sound.

He was not injured. In fact, the moment Thomas approached Ron, an invisible "forward force" enveloped Ron's body. He was not sure before, but now, feeling the form of this force, Ron couldn't help but feel his heart sink.

It's the Speed ​​Force - the Speed ​​Force from the Flash. But now, it appears on Thomas Wayne? !

He grabbed Ron's collar and slammed him against the wall. Even through the mask, Ron could still clearly see Thomas's eyes which were full of tension and anxiety.

It was like a drowning man grabbing the last straw, or a drowning man grabbing something. Just out of instinct, he subconsciously wanted to grab it and hold it tightly.

"Go on! Go on! I'm asking you to go on!!"

Staring at Ron, Thomas couldn't help but grit his teeth. But after a long time, Thomas suddenly let go of his hand, then took off the mask on his face and gasped violently.

After a while, when his breathing had stabilized again, Thomas looked at Ron again.

"I'm ready, please speak." "You people in the Bat Family are all a little neurotic." Looking at Thomas in front of him who was startled and now calmed down, Ron shook his head again and repeated the origin of the Flashpoint world.

"The Flash was angered by his old enemy, the Reverse Flash, and went back in time to change the fact of his mother's death. As this destined death was changed, the butterfly effect it produced also affected the whole world."

"Logically, Barry Allen should come find you and explain to you everything that is happening now. And you will choose to help Barry Allen in order to keep Bruce alive and join the battle to save the world."

"Did you find out? The root of all this lies in the Flash Barry Allen." Ron said:

"But you just used the Speed ​​Force - the source of Barry Allen's super speed that allows him to travel through time."

After hearing what Ron said, Thomas's expression changed continuously, as if he was wavering between doubt and belief. Sometimes he was excited, sometimes angry, and sometimes desperate. But in the end, these emotions finally turned into a touch of calmness.

"If that's the case... I'm willing to cooperate with you."

"I understand. For Bruce, you wouldn't hesitate to cooperate with me, let alone give your soul to the devil."

Looking at Thomas in front of him, Ron said, "Where does your speed come from?"

"From Barry Allen." Thomas said calmly:
"That's the guy you mentioned... But unlike what you said, I didn't meet him, nor did I help him regain his speed force. In your words, it seemed like a Barry Allen from another world who accidentally entered this world. He came to me first, and he mistook me for Bruce, and left a letter and this ring."

Thomas opened his hand, and a red ring with a golden flash appeared in his palm.

"After charging, the ring can put me into a speed-up state. After that, he left Gotham and went to Metropolis to look for others."

Hearing this, Ron stretched out his hand: "Let me see the letter."

"Yes." Thomas handed the letter over. After taking a quick look at it, Ron realized where the problem lay.

The Flash in this Flashpoint world has not been born for unknown reasons. He may have died or may not have awakened his speed force. The Flash who came to this universe from another universe does not know the situation in this world. He only thinks that the existence of Batman means that he is still Bruce Wayne. In fact, the current Batman is Thomas Wayne after the timeline has been changed.

Not knowing this, but out of trust in Bruce, Barry Allen from another world only hurried to Gotham to confirm the existence of Batman and then chose to leave.

According to the message on the letter, Barry Allen is heading towards Metropolis.

"What happened next? No more contact?"

“Then things started to get out of control.”

Thomas said indifferently: "The curse began to spread in the sea at an alarming speed and joined the natural cycle. Gotham City barely survived with its high walls, but it was also attacked by the corpse of Atlantis. And Metropolis... had lost contact a month ago."
