Ian turned to open the door.
The oak door creaked open, and the metropolitan night wind, carrying raindrops, rushed in.
A man in yellow was standing outside the door.
The guy was wearing a bright yellow jumpsuit, yellow gloves, yellow boots, and even his mask was a fluorescent bright yellow. He was moving around so much that even Ian's super vision couldn't catch a glimpse of his face.
“Yes, your Aquaman and Aquaman have arrived, kid.” The man in yellow grinned, his voice crackling like electricity, and raised his hand that was waving incessantly.
There were two people being carried on it.
The unconscious Aquaman Arthur and his wife Mera.

outside the house.
The night rain continued incessantly.
Accompanied by a thunderclap.
The porch light in the Kent house made the uninvited guest's yellow uniform stand out starkly.
There he stood.
His scarlet eyes crackled with the lightning of the Speed-Reversing Force.
A distorted smile, as if pixelated, hung at the corners of his mouth.
"This is Aquaman, this is Mera... Surprised, child?" This person's wicked smile wasn't as sinister as Lucifer's; it was more of a condescending attitude with a hint of sarcasm.
Ian blinked.
He watched as the uninvited guest raised his hand once each, showing him two unconscious heroes—Arthur and Mera—who had clearly been attacked.
The wound is still bleeding.
It kept dripping onto the porch floor.
"It's a pleasant surprise, but with the adults not home, I'm afraid I can't afford these two mermaids." Ian was only slightly taken aback, but he had already recognized who was in front of him.
Reverse lightning.
The Flash's nemesis, Barry Allen's greatest nightmare, and one of the most dangerous speedsters, especially known for his complicated relationship with The Flash.
There are several types of reverse lightning.
but.
The most famous Reverse-Flash is Alberd Swann. He was initially a fervent fan of The Flash, but over time, his adoration for Barry Allen gradually turned into jealousy and hatred. In attempting to emulate and surpass his idol, Swann unexpectedly gained speed abilities similar to The Flash.
These powers come from the distorted use of the Speed Force.
It is known as the Reverse Speed Force.
When Reverse Lightning runs, the Reverse Speed Force is generated. As soon as a speedster comes into contact with it, the Reverse Speed Force will frantically devour those who possess the Speed Force, like cancer.
In addition, the Inverse Speed Force can sever the connection between the Speedster and the Speed Force. This is why the possessor of the Inverse Speed Force is naturally the Flash's greatest nemesis.
"Do you want to trade Aquaman and Mera for The Flash?" Ian didn't know why Reverse-Flash dared to come to Metropolis, but he knew very well that the other party was definitely not here to find Superman or himself.
"I think it's okay."
Reverse Lightning gave a wicked smile.
In this regard.
The Flash inside the house seemed completely unaware.
"Who is it? Arthur even brought you fish? Don't believe him, they don't eat fish, the gifts they brought are all bean products." Barry Allen's voice came from inside the house.
His words carried a hint of having been tricked.
“It’s your old rival. He’s switched sides and started delivering food—America’s economy is definitely in a slump.” Ian’s loud response to the room made Reverse-Flash’s smile freeze instantly.
The frequency of facial shaking was slightly slurred.
Seizing the opportunity, Ian suddenly struck – Black Tiger Strike at the Groin, his movements as fast as lightning! This sneak attack was truly swift and decisive, but unfortunately, he could never find an evenly matched opponent.
Ian's speed, which is dozens of times faster than that of ordinary people, may be effective against ordinary superhumans.
But it's still not enough against the fastest.
Even though the attack was launched first.
The reversible lightning still transformed into red lightning at the last second. Ian didn't even have time to see the other party's movements before he heard two heavy thuds behind him.
Reverse Lightning not only went into the house by itself.
He had already thrown the two mermaids on the ground.
He stood behind Ian.
At this moment, the fading afterimage in front of Ian still lingered on his retina.
"Distract me, then launch an attack—a fine strategy..." Reverse-Flash's voice was close at hand, laced with sarcasm. "Unfortunately, you're far too slow."
"Son of Superman? Nothing special." This was a truly effective taunt. Ian felt his strength increase; it was the boost that [Perfect Divinity] would bring when faced with taunts.
[Perfect Divinity: When you are mocked in any way, you will gain a 30% increase to all your attributes, but your morality level will continue to decline.]
This is the [Savage Tyrant]'s innate skill. Ian was sharply mocked, and his combat power was instantly boosted, but at the same time, he did not feel any side effects.
This must be because of the system's excessive overtures.
What other reason could there be?
"Knowing this is Superman's house, how dare you, a rat, come here?" As Ian turned around, Reverse-Flash's face was almost right in front of him.
"Boom~"
The intense rays that erupted from Ian's eyes came without warning.
It's fast.
however.
From Reverse Flash's perspective, he could clearly see two golden rays extending from Ian's eyes, and sensing the danger, he immediately retreated several hundred steps.
"Boom~"
Ian's attack missed again.
This attack blasted through the ceiling of my living room.
"Ian! What are you doing!"
Jonathan, who had been asleep, was awakened. He was fully armed and covered with various idols. He peeked out from the second-floor corridor and saw Ian and a man in yellow standing opposite each other under the burning ceiling.
"I'm going to call Dad!"
First stunned.
Then, Jonathan, who was just an ordinary person, made the best decision, instead of shouting about bonds and family ties and going downstairs to his death like in most movies.
He turned around and rushed back to his room.
He also knocked on Jordan's room a few times, calling for his other superhuman brother to come downstairs to help.
Unfortunately, there was no response from Jordan's room.
“Superman? Ha, he can’t come to save you. He’ll be too busy to take care of himself tonight.” Reverse-Flash dared to come at such a precise time, of course, because he was certain that he wouldn’t be caught by Superman.
This is the bugged ability of a time traveler.
Not to mention he himself is a time traveler from the future. Before he finished speaking, another red lightning bolt flashed—Reverse Lightning had already appeared in front of the equipment holding Barry.
"This means that no one can stop me from killing the Flash." Clearly, after intimidating Ian, Reverse-Flash's target this time wasn't Superman's child.
"Damn it! It's you again!"
Because they were inside Batman's device.
Barry Allen simply couldn't break the glass made by Wayne.
Anything Wayne makes is bound to be top-notch, and the Speed Force's resonance ability had no effect whatsoever—the reason is simple: the device's true function is not just to analyze the Flash's physical data.
The words "Speedster's Cage" are printed on the outside of the glass.
Batman didn't even bother to make any changes or alterations; it's clear that his original intention in creating this device was simply to imprison speedsters, and analyzing their bodies was just one of its functions.
"Can't get out, right? How pathetic... The teammates you betrayed are now betraying you in return." Reverse-Flash's figure was still very swaying, and he stared at the Flash in the instrument and began to mock him again.
Reverse Lightning is that kind of person.
The Flash enjoys giving others pep talks, so his nemesis naturally enjoys mocking and attacking him. Faced with his old rival's ridicule, Barry Allen, inside the device, merely showed a hint of annoyance.
soon.
This annoyance was replaced by calm.
“I know, all these years, you’ve humiliated me time and time again. You must enjoy mocking me.” Barry Allen looked at the man in yellow outside.
He suddenly had a flash of inspiration and spoke sincerely.
“I can accept this fate, I can submit to you… I can provide you with any emotional value you want, you just need to do one thing for me.”
Has the Flash lost his suit and his indomitable spirit?
Barry Allen at this moment doesn't resemble the Flash who never gives up at all.
This left Reverse Lightning somewhat bewildered.
Ian, who was rescuing Aquaman and Mera, also paused upon hearing this.
The little boy stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
Someone is talking about his lyrics!
as predicted!
“Los Angeles, there’s a place called the Light Bar, you just need to help me smash it…” Barry continued, mimicking even the tone and that sharp, eunuch-like voice perfectly.
Ian's expression was priceless.
Even hackers can have their accounts hacked one day?
