Marvel's Speedster

182 The Hunt Begins

As the city where The Flash often takes place, Keystone City and Midtown are called the Twin Cities area. Although Midtown seems to be in decline at the moment, the development of Midtown was quite good many years ago, and it was among the best in terms of economy and culture. The center of American commerce, architecture, and art is known as the "Gem of the Midwest". However, with the opening of Keystone City, a large number of factories and commercial activities have moved from Midtown to Keystone City, where labor costs are cheaper. The development of Keystone City has gradually surpassed the Midtown.

Now the difference between Midtown and Keystone is like the port areas of the two cities. At night, Midtown’s pier is deserted, while Keystone’s port is still brightly lit. Under the dazzling lights, cargo ships dock as frequently as during the day. The steel suspension bridge-like cranes are constantly moving, and heavy and solid containers are piled up like mountains.

Leaving the bustling wharf construction site, not far away is a high and low construction area. In addition to the port administrative office, a large number of dock workers and their families also settle nearby. The expanding population creates various needs, and shrewd businessmen see Seeing the opportunity to make money, many feasting and entertainment venues have been opened in this area, especially one of the small streets where bars and hotels gather. Compared with other places, it is even more noisy and lively.

In a motel that also runs a bar business, every table is filled with drinkers as usual, even more people than usual, and the hall smells of sweat and alcohol, screaming, laughing The noise and clinking of glasses came and went one after another, making it so noisy that people sitting at the same table might not be able to hear what their companions were saying clearly if they sat a little further away.

Such a chaotic place is very suitable for those who want to hide their whereabouts. Several mysterious people are meeting privately in the dark corner of the hall.

.....I know that it has been a long time since the last 14 action, and I also know that the previous work was not smooth, I said that our cooperation is over

But the situation is different now, Mick, The Flash’s status has been shaken, the TV station filmed a new speedster challenging him, he can’t care about us for the time being, this is a good opportunity, so I need a new members, like guys like you. "

A tall man was sitting at the table in the deepest part of the restaurant, his whole body was hidden in the shadows, only eyes full of wildness and desire shone in the darkness.

The companion he wanted to persuade didn't seem to be tempted. The big man called Mick just sat opposite him indifferently, holding a lighter in his hand, and constantly pressing the flame.

The tall man knew his companion's personality, so he didn't take it seriously, and continued to persuade him constantly.

"You can accept extreme ideas, and you have a certain ability. You just need someone to point you in the right direction. I can do that."

While talking, he opened a small metal box, and a strange looking weapon inside immediately attracted the attention of his companions.

It was a gun that could emit high-temperature flames, which fit Mick's nature obsessed with flames.

Seeing how fondly he was holding the flame gun, the tall man smiled slightly.

"So, are you in, or are you out?" he asked.

Mick didn't answer immediately, but just raised his head and looked at the other people beside him.

"Are they new members you invited too, Snart?" He asked, pointing to the drinkers at a nearby table, where there were young women in weird dresses, middle-aged men with sad and wretched looks, and rough and tough street gangsters. , besides this, there were also some guests whose appearances and clothes did not match this vulgar place at all. While the two of Snyder were talking, these strange faces entered the bar one after another, turning their heads from time to time to look at the crowd sitting around the table. The two people at the table watched.

If it wasn't for Mick and the two who had a very deep understanding of the police, they would almost have thought that these people were spies sent by the police, but these guys looked at them like fans looking forward to stars, or tourists looking at rare animals.

"No, they have nothing to do with me. I only invited you." The tall Snaite leaned forward a little, his upper body emerged from the darkness, revealing a handsome and cold face.

He held another gun with a unique shape in his hand, and the chamber of the gun covered by the windbreaker flickered with cold light from time to time.

While the two were secretly vigilant, a dark-skinned woman stood up from not far away. She parted the crowd all the way, swung her waist and walked to their table.

"Captain Cold?" She looked at Snyder and smiled.

"Who are you?" Snaite asked coldly, the muzzle of the gun was quietly adjusted under the table, and it was aimed at the woman's lower body unconsciously.

As long as the opponent shows any abnormality, he will immediately fire without hesitation, using freezing rays close to absolute zero to let everyone know what the cold in Captain Cold's nickname means.

But the woman showed no signs of doing anything, she just came over to say hello and introduce herself by the way.

"Shauna Bates, Super Ability, this morning I heard that Captain Cold, the only one who can fight against The Flash, is looking for a partner, so I came here, can we talk about cooperation now?" The wild Shawna looked at Snyder with some admiration, just like what she said just now, Captain Cold is one of the very few people who can gain the upper hand after many confrontations with The Flash.

Snaite frowned and didn't answer, Meina's words annoyed his companion first.

"Just now you said you only invited me, you lied to me again!" Mick, who was holding a flame gun, was furious.

"No, I don't know what's going on!" Snaite denied it, and then stared at the woman who disturbed the situation.

"What the hell is going on, I only sent an email to Mick, who told you about me, and what's going on with them?" Captain Cold didn't hide anymore, aiming his gun with a cold light at the opposite woman.

Shauna was a little at a loss.

"It's a message. Someone left a message on my face asking me to meet here. The signature is your name... We are all the same." She replied hastily. They all stood up.

Snett, who was always alert, immediately realized that something was wrong. It seemed that someone took the opportunity of meeting Mick and used his own name to invite other people.

Just as he was looking around in a hurry, trying to find a safe way to leave, the flickeringly lit hall suddenly went dark.

Someone cut the power.

"Let's go!" Snaite made a decisive decision and pulled Mick to stand up.

They pushed away the chaotic crowd in the dark, and walked towards the side door, but they turned back halfway, mixed into the crowded crowd, and wanted to take advantage of the chaos to leave.

Just as the crowd was about to rush out of the bar and disperse into the street, a black figure surrounded by light blue lightning appeared in front of them, blocking Snyter's path.

"Leonard Snart." The deep and hoarse voice echoed in the hall, and everyone stopped in their tracks as if they were frozen by the severe cold.

"Who are you?" Snaite asked, distracting the other party's attention, and at the same time raised his hand to shoot, attacking the other party without warning.

With his movements, Mick's flame guns lit up at the same time. They are accomplices who have cooperated for many years, and they have a tacit understanding even if there is no prior agreement.

The cold light and the flame intertwined, and the two completely opposite forces erupted at the same time. Ripples faintly visible to the naked eye appeared in the air in the hall.

In an instant, the body of the black shadow vibrated faintly, and two destructive energy attacks passed through the hazy shadow aggressively, but failed to cause any damage to the opponent.

This is the afterimage left by the high-speed movement. Although the opponent left the original position, the image on the retina of the human eye has not disappeared due to the fast movement.

"This is a trap. The police are here to arrest us!" Seeing that the attack had no effect, Snaite retreated into the crowd and shouted, immediately causing a commotion in the hall where fish and dragons were mixed.

Knowing what his companion meant, Mick raised his hand and shot repeatedly at the head. Following several consecutive bangs, huge amounts of explosions shook the entire hall, raging flames carried broken ceiling fragments flying everywhere, crystal glass, burning Thin pieces of wood and sharp iron flakes rained down on the crowd like a meteor shower, and the scorching hot air scorched and scorched the people on the ground from above.

"Your best bet is to be honest and obedient [instead of trying to test my patience."

The black shadow is the incarnation of Ross's extreme speed, he was not fooled by Snyder's tricks, passed through the chaotic crowd, and walked straight to the desperately retreating Captain Cold.

On the way, a middle-aged man with a wretched face bravely rushed over. He swung his arm and threw Ross on the head.

This is also a person with a super ability. It can be seen that his specialty is extremely powerful strength, and there is a faint thunder in the air when he raises his hand.

"Go to hell!" The man's expression was distorted, and he really believed Snaite's nonsense.

"Don't..." Xiao Na, the black woman, guessed something instead. She hid under a nearby table and screamed. Seeing that the blocking was ineffective, her body turned into a cloud of smoke and disappeared suddenly, and then reappeared at the bar far away. later.

Under the watchful eyes of many onlookers, the middle-aged man's fist gradually approached the approaching black shadow, and Ross looked down at him indifferently, as if looking at a lifeless corpse.

For a moment, all those who watched felt a kind of horror, and the emotionless eyes under Ross's mask made them tremble from the soul.

With a flash of blue light, the middle-aged man's body froze suddenly, his chest heaved up and down several times, but he couldn't make a sound, his angry eyes showed a look of painful struggle, and then he lost focus, the whole The person fell into uncontrollable violent convulsions.

Immediately afterwards, there was a soft "bang", his head burst open without warning like a swollen water sac, and blood mixed with brain matter sprayed out, splashing all over the faces of nearby people, even After dousing the ceiling that was still burning, the hall was suddenly filled with a stench.

Under the watchful eyes of Snett and others, the headless corpse of the middle-aged man slowly knelt down at Ross' feet, a touch of bright red deeply stimulated their nerves.

"Now, you can decide, do you want to be the prey or the hound?" Ross stepped over the corpse, grabbed Captain Cold by the throat, and lifted him up high. .
