Marvel's Superman

Chapter 456 - 453 | The Choice Of Marriage, Assassins.

"Barry, have you done anything bad recently and got caught by the Green Lantern Corps?"

Luke deliberately wore a serious expression and looked at the Flash, who was stunned.

The other party and the Green Lantern, Hal Jordan, were good friends.

People like Abin Sur and Sinestro were naturally no strangers to him.

"Recently, apart from being busy making the Cosmic Treadmill, I've only been spending time with my Mother..."

Barry looked innocent.

He was just sitting quietly at home, but a huge accusation suddenly fell from the sky.

Obviously, he wasn't doing anything, but he was suddenly targeted by the Green Lantern Corps?!

'Sinestro couldn't be targeting me in order to get Hal back, right?'

'Even so, he should go to Carol!'

'It's not like I'm the one married to Hal and sleeping in the same bed!'

"Judging from the information provided by Abin Sur, Sinestro is probably aiming for your Speed Force."

Luke stopped scaring Barry and chuckled.

It seemed that Sinestro was probably aware of the rapid expansion of the Flashpoint aftermath and the fact that this timeline must have been rewritten.

It looked like the Flash still hadn't found out what a far-reaching thing he had done yet.

Breaking through the time barrier led to the appearance of Flashpoint, which directly restarted the multiverse.

It led to the New 52 and parallel Earth 52s.

The origin of superheroes, and other details, had all been rewritten.

And in this process, the originally closed multiverse had produced a loophole, and a person behind the scenes, who was silently watching, got in.

Doctor Manhattan from the Watchmen universe!

And it all started with this collapsed, distorted space-time.

"What should I do now?"

Barry was a little panicked. Sinestro was the most famous fighter in the Green Lantern Corps since Abin Sur.

"Do I run away when I see him? But Mom is still in Central City, so if Sinestro threatens her with ..."

Seeing the Flash's troubled look, Luke chuckled softly. The downside of superheroes was this...

The villains had a million ways to put them in a moral dilemma.

"Don't worry, Kal is here, and I'll get Dr Wayne here later. Could Sinestro hurt your family in front of Batman and Superman?"

Luke said softly and comfortingly.

The Flashpoint world would end soon.

With strict precautions, there shouldn't be any problem in handling a single Sinestro.

According to the situation, finding the Reverse-Flash was the key.

If they couldn't solve this guy, Barry's Speed Force would be difficult to complete, and it was impossible for him to break through the time barrier again.

"Green really doesn't suit me."

Luke touched the lantern ring on his right hand, and the power of his will shone through.

The intensity of the emotional energy was probably estimated to be medium to a high level.

Obviously, he didn't exactly fit the green light of will.

The courage to overcome fear was far less powerful than that of Hal Jordan or Batman.

After all, the superheroes have sacrificed their parents. He couldn't match their profound emotions.

"Well, let's not worry about things that haven't happened yet. It's been over 20 minutes since you left the restaurant. If you don't get back soon, your mother might think her son had fallen into the toilet."

Luke waved his hand, suggesting that Barry should relax.

Of course, he originally intended to say that even if Sinestro threatened the Flash with his mother, it wouldn't affect anything.

After all, after correcting this timeline, the Flash's mother would still be killed by the Reverse-Flash.

But that sentence would be too cold, which was totally inconsistent with the good image of the Kryptonian cousin who was warm-hearted and kind.

"Okay, but are you going out like that?"

Barry scratched his head. His cherry pie was only half-eaten. If he rushed back now, it would probably still be warm.

"I'm going to Australia to follow the peace diplomacy of Themyscira and Atlantis. As you know, my greatest wish is for world peace."

Luke smiled and stashed away the power battery and the lantern ring.

In his view, the promotion of combat power by this thing was far less than its auxiliary effect.

The lantern ring wasn't only a tool for fighting. It could also help him travel through wormholes, heal physical injuries, use electromagnetic scanning, detect radio, radar and high-frequency band communications.

When necessary, it could also act as a cosmic translator.

Almost all languages of any race, civilisation and planet could be translated and conversed with.

In addition, the lantern ring also had extensive knowledge from the Book of Oa, which could be considered as a universal encyclopedia.

This was the real reason why the lantern ring was called 'the most powerful weapon in the universe'.

"Australia ... you and Diana?"

Barry's eyes lit up with gossip. He quickly threw the unfinished cherry pie to the back of his mind and came over to ask, "Luke, I remember you said you had been to Themyscira before."

"Just ordinary friends."

Luke refused to disclose other information, pushed Barry away from the inquiry and flew up to the sky.

As most people knew, the Flash, Green Lantern, those two guys, and Aquaman were the people who couldn't keep secrets in the Justice League.

Anything they knew could spread all over the league in less than 20 minutes. An hour later, even the Teen Titans, Justice League Dark and A.R.G.U.S would hear the rumours.

"Wonder Woman and the Kryptonian cousin ... this pair, to some extent, is quite appropriate."

Barry looked at Luke, who left and commented to himself.

After all, Wonder Woman was one of the few superheroes in the Justice League who didn't mind carving people up.

As it happened, Clark's cousin, who didn't seem to be much about love and justice, was a moderate and peaceful character.

...

...

Sydney Opera House, Australia.

The diplomatic conference, a symbol of peace, lasted for a week.

The United Kingdoms, formed by Atlantis and Themyscira, had started round after round of in-depth and cordial friendly talks with representatives of various countries in the human world.

This was the ending.

The discussion focused on the details of trade cooperation and the establishment of diplomatic embassies.

"It's boring."

Diana, dressed in Themyscira's signature robe, quietly stepped out for a breath of fresh air.

She didn't understand much of the polite and tedious official rhetoric and the need to maintain proper decorum, which made the diplomatic talks a long ordeal.

Diana began to miss the Themyscira arena and the good old days of training every day.

'A week has passed ... had he returned to Themyscira and left without finding me?'

The Amazon Princess was in the human world these days, but she hadn't learned anything. She had watched a lot of dramas on TV.

Although she didn't quite understand why the heroine in the drama 'Vampire Diaries' could like her brother and be entangled with him at the same time, she still watched with interest.

"Your Highness, there you are."

Diana's quiet moment didn't last long. Arthur Curry, the majestic prince of Atlantis, appeared in front of her.

This future Sea King was always the first to find out where she was and come over.

"Getting some fresh air; it's too stuffy in the venue."

Diana replied perfunctorily with a polite smile.

These days, wherever she went, she would always meet him by chance.

No matter how slow she was, Diana understood it.

Unfortunately, first impressions often play a big part in the relationships of young people.

Arthur admired Diana, so he courted her.

But the Amazon Princess wasn't interested. She was a little angry at the thought of the slain sea monster and the disruption of her plans to go to the world of man.

"Today is the day when the talks come to an end, and in the evening, there is a ball -- a social event in the human world."

Arthur, who considered himself charming, offered an invitation.

"I don't suppose you have a date yet, Your Highness? I can ..."

Diana didn't even think about it and directly refused, "Sorry, I can't dance."

"I can teach you. It's easy."

Arthur was in hot pursuit, but his old-fashioned tactics didn't work well with Themyscira's naive girls.

"Your Highness Curry, I'm not interested in dancing."

Diana shook her head again. Her mother, Hippolyta, had hoped that Themyscira and Atlantis would solidify a marriage that would strengthen their relationship.

But she didn't like it. Partly because she didn't like Arthur and partly because she didn't like the fact that there was no ice cream in the underwater world.

'I don't want to spend my life with a man who talks to fish. '

Diana said deeply in her heart.

No matter which time and space, Aquaman would always be ridiculed for that.

"As I said, Arthur, you can't be that direct with a girl."

When Diana left by chance, the Ocean Master, Orm, suddenly emerged from the corner.

In the Flashpoint world, he wasn't favoured by the King of Atlantis, and his position was far inferior to Arthur's.

"What do you think I should do?"

Arthur's mouth was slightly pursed. He was a little unhappy about the fact that he was treated so coldly.

"Creating surprises and romance ... in the surface world, they say that those things are useful."

Orm replied with a smile.

"By the way, what about Mera? She's already engaged to you."

Thinking about that problem, Arthur had a bit of a headache.

His future Queen was already prepared.

That's why Diana was so stubborn and even disgusted.

Themyscira took personal loyalty very seriously.

Men with a lot of lovers, when they meet tough Amazon women, most of them would meet their end in a wood chipper.

"I didn't choose her ..."

Arthur couldn't help saying those unique words of a bastard.

Mera was the daughter of the King of Xebel, which is why the King of Atlantis chose her as the future Queen.

Right now, Themyscira was more powerful, supported by the Gods of Olympus.

Therefore, Diana became the most suitable marriage partner.

"Haha, Arthur, you mustn't let Mera know. Otherwise... she'll definitely go after that Amazon Princess."

Orm seemed to be kindly reminding him.

"That's why I didn't let her attend the diplomatic conference."

Arthur's mouth hooked up. He was now a veritable 'King of the Sea'.

Let's just say that the Flashpoint world was too nasty...

It was the world that was wrong.

"Good luck, brother."

Orm whispered.

He averted his eyes and looked out at sea, not far away, his eyes flashing with a strange look.

The air of intrigue quietly permeated.

...

...

The stars were shining, and the lights were on.

In the venue of the Sydney Opera House, soft and soothing music flowed out.

Atlantis, Themyscira and the human world jointly organised a ball.

Hippolyta, the Amazon Queen, had been dealing with representatives from various countries and the Atlantean delegation. It was a happy thing to see Themyscira accepted by the human world.

She knew very well that remaining closed-minded would only lead to stagnation.

"Diana, why don't you go dancing?"

The long, light blue sea water-like dress, worn by the Amazon Princess, instantly became the focus of the audience.

A tall posture, graceful figure, noble temperament ...

As soon as the dance started, many men came up and invited Diana to dance with them after they had puffed up their courage.

However, they all got the same answer.

"I was afraid that when those men put their hands on my waist, I would uncontrollably draw my sword and cut off their heads... This is a warrior's instinct, Mother, and I find it hard to overcome this."

Diana blinked and made an innocent expression.

"Such willfulness."

Hippolyta shook her head in exasperation but didn't say anything else.

Diana was the Amazon Princess, the future Queen of Themyscira, and no one could force her to do anything.

"So, you're going to sit here all night?"

Hippolyta reached out to her daughter's cheek and spoke in a soft voice, "See? His Highness, the Prince of Atlantis, has an eager look on his face and will probably be inviting you later."

"I'd be happier to spar with him with a sword and spear than dance."

Diana snorted lightly. The thinking of an Amazon female warrior was simple.

There was nothing that couldn't be solved by a fight.

Recently, she had read many books about the human world and knew that male creatures attached great importance to pride.

If he lost to her in a battle, then maybe he wouldn't bother her again.

The Princess thought so.

"Change your rude behaviour. A girl shouldn't always be thinking about fighting with someone."

Hippolyta felt a little helpless. Themyscira's martial spirit had led Diana astray.

She wanted to cultivate her daughter into a noble and elegant Princess.

"Okay. You should go back to your social gathering, Honorable Amazon Queen."

Diana changed the subject and expressed her desire not to be lectured by her mother.

Hippolyta smiled and gracefully picked up a glass of Themyscira's unique fruit wine from the silver tray held by the waiter.

She raised her glass and took a sip, then frowned slightly and realised something was wrong.

"Diana..."

Hippolyta threw down her wine glass and paled.

Just before she shouted, a golden bolt of lightning struck!

It was a golden trident.

Swish!

It was like a crossbow arrow at full force, quickly attacking the Amazon Queen.

Diana was the first person to notice. She subconsciously reached out for the Sword of Athena, only to find that she didn't bring it with her.

The dress wasn't battle armour. There was no room for swords and shields.

In a hurry, she reached over.

Bang!

The sound waves shook eardrums!

The Bracelets of Submission perfectly blocked the sudden assassination attack!

But before Diana could feel fortunate, two more bolts of lightning pierced the air.

Hippolyta, with one hand on the table, looked terribly pale, unable to mobilise the divine power in her body.

In the next moment, the feeling of a deadly crisis enveloped them.

Bang! Bang!

The two tridents bounced off.

The scene of the Amazon Queen's death didn't happen.

There was a green shield in front of Hippolyta.

Then, a loud shout rang out --

"Assassins!"

In an instant, the whole venue was in chaos.

The delegates fled in haste as security personnel surrounded them.

The Amazon warrior women were the first to respond, guarding the entrances and exits and searching for anyone suspicious.

"I came at the right time."

A smiling voice sounded at Diana's side.

"You're ... Luke!"

Seeing the familiar figure appear in front of her, the Amazon Princess was at a loss.

On the one hand, the assassination just now came by surprise and was too dangerous, so she hadn't recovered.

On the other hand, Luke's appearance was too abrupt.

"What? Too excited to say anything?"

Luke smiled. He didn't think he would run into an assassination attempt on the Amazon Queen.

According to the plot, Hippolyta was supposed to die, and then it was discovered that the Atlanteans had done it.

The United Kingdoms collapsed, and the two sides ignited a war.

Now, it seemed that something was changing in Flashpoint because of someone's intervention.
