“That’s right. After all, time remnants are entities that jump out of a certain timeline, which is not allowed. The only problem now is whether creating time remnants on such a large scale will have any impact on the original body.” Jay Garrick explained, “This is the first time we’ve encountered something like this.”

"Why don't we ask the Flash? Maybe he knows something," Constantine suddenly said.

“Alright, that’s all we can do for now.” Although Jay Garrick was also a veteran Flash, to be honest, his experience in the Justice League world was not as rich as that of the Flash, so he did not object.

Upon hearing this, Constantine immediately used the interdimensional communicator to contact Batman and told him that he was looking for the Flash. Due to the time difference between the two worlds, the Flash had only recently arrived in the other world when Constantine contacted Batman, so he was able to make contact with the Flash very quickly.

“Three million people have been controlled by nanobots. That’s really troublesome.” Batman sighed from the side. “I can’t analyze these nanobots. I can only make a detector based on my previous experience. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be so troublesome.”

Constantine asked the Flash, "Flash, do you think it's feasible to create a large number of time remnants?"

After listening, The Flash pondered for a moment and said to Jay Garrick, "Adam's method is actually the safest and most effective one right now, but before you take action, you should talk to the Speed ​​Force first."

Jay Garrick was taken aback by this and said, "Talk to the Speed ​​Force?"

“Well, the Speed ​​Force is quite generous to us. Perhaps it would be feasible for you to go and talk to them in person.” The Flash nodded slightly and said, “This is the only way now. I think you should have met with the Speed ​​Force before.”

“I understand, I’ll give it a try,” Jay Garrick nodded slightly.

“Okay, thanks for your help, see you later!” Constantine said to the Flash and Batman after seeing that Jay Garrick had found a solution, and then hung up.

Having found a potentially feasible method, Jay Garrick immediately set off for the Speed ​​Force. After all, of the speedsters inside, he was the only one who had had extensive contact with the Speed ​​Force before; the others were all novices and had no way of entering it.

Unlike Barry Allen and the others who entered the Speed ​​Force through Cisco's abilities, the veteran Flash, Jai Garrick, can freely enter and exit the Speed ​​Force. Therefore, he greeted everyone, and then disappeared with a flash of golden lightning on his body.

Since they didn't know how long it would take to enter and exit the Speed ​​Force, the others went back to prepare for the battle that might happen later. Tony, who had been watching the show from the sidelines, found Athena at this time.

“Hey, Athena, there’s something very important right now,” Tony said, frowning.

"Is this Dr. Zola?" Athena saw through his thoughts at a glance and asked.

“That’s right. If we don’t deal with Dr. Zola first, we won’t be able to rescue those people at all. Although they are very fast, they are very likely to be noticed by Dr. Zola.” Tony nodded and said.

“OK, I’ll handle Dr. Zola. I also want to see just how strong this Dr. Zola really is. I have to admire this person; he actually managed to program all his memories and emotions into a computer and then seize the opportunity to take over the Skynet system,” Athena said with a faint smile.

“Alright, Dr. Zola is in your hands now,” Tony said with a sigh of relief.

"Yes, don't worry," Athena said after finishing speaking.

Athena then walked to the computer next to her, her body turning into a purple light and merging directly into the computer. She then navigated this vast computer network to find Dr. Zola.

About ten minutes later, a flash of golden light appeared in the hall, and Jay Garrick reappeared at the spot where he had left, with a smile on his face, seemingly having successfully communicated with the Speed ​​Force.

“Jay, how’s it going?” Wally asked.

“The Speed ​​Force did agree, but it also told us to return to our own world immediately after we rescued the people.” Jay Garrick looked at everyone and said, “After all, the Speed ​​Force also has to abide by the law of conservation of energy. A huge amount of time remnants will consume too much Speed ​​Force energy, and we can’t provide any energy for the Speed ​​Force by running around in this world.”

“I see. So that’s how it is between you and the Speed ​​Force.” Tony seemed to understand. “Because the worlds are different, although you can use the Speed ​​Force’s energy, the Speed ​​Force cannot absorb energy from this world.”

"Oh, right, neither of us seems to know how to create a time remnant," Jessie Quick suddenly exclaimed.

“It’s alright. Explaining the remnant of time is a bit complicated, but it’s actually a very simple ability,” Jay Garrick said calmly.

“Athena has already taken care of Dr. Zola, so we still have some time. You can train for a bit.” Tony said with a smile, glancing at the computer screen that had turned into a bunch of gibberish at the beginning.

Hearing Tony say this, Wally and the others had no objections. After all, Tony had already explained some things about Dr. Zola. This time, they needed to save three million people, so they couldn't afford to make any mistakes, otherwise Wally and the others wouldn't forgive themselves. Therefore, Wally and the others followed Jay Garrick out of the hall and came to a training ground to begin training their new abilities.

Time passed little by little. Athena had been in the network world for more than an hour. In this hour, Wally and the others had learned how to create time remnants. Actually, it sounds difficult, but it is a very easy skill for speedsters. The reason why it is not used often is because, as explained before, speedsters will be punished by the Speed ​​Force if they act too recklessly.

Tony and the others were anxiously watching the computer screen. To be honest, although Tony had absolute confidence in Athena, Athena's opponent was Dr. Zola, who had taken over the Skynet system made with alien technology. So he was a little worried. If something really happened to Athena, things would get really serious.

Adam might destroy the entire Earth! Tony knows his brother's feelings for Athena. To be honest, Athena didn't have a body back then, and she wasn't a real living being like she is now. Otherwise, Christine wouldn't be in the picture, probably.

"Please don't let anything happen to you, Athena!" Tony prayed silently.

Chapter 450 Countdown to the Final Battle

A thrilling battle is currently underway in the online world. Athena and Dr. Zola are both using their abilities to launch continuous attacks on each other. If they are not careful, they could be controlled by the other or eliminated from this world.

In fact, Athena had not expected that the core of the Skynet system would be so powerful. If she had not evolved from an intelligent program into a life form step by step, she might have been eliminated by Dr. Zola long ago. Extraterrestrial technology should not be underestimated.

The concept of time online differs from that in reality. The two sides constantly battle online, using their abilities to build virtual kingdoms, only to have them destroyed. Or they might transform into various ancient creatures waging war in the online world; ultimately, it's a contest of computational power and reaction speed.

Ultimately, compared to Dr. Zola, who integrated his memories into the Skynet system, Athena had already transcended into a true life form. In addition, with her mastery of both magic and alchemy, Athena was still a cut above Dr. Zola. After a period of thrilling battle, Athena finally defeated Dr. Zola's core system, erased all of Dr. Zola's memories stored on the network, and rewrote a core system to control the entire Skynet system. She then used the Skynet system to discover the Hydra base that was secretly building weapons and some of Red Skull's plans.

Athena left some new tasks to the newly created Skynet system and quietly left the network world, returning to the council hall of the Kingdom of Wakanda, where she saw Tony looking anxious.

"Phew, Athena, you're finally out. I thought something had happened to you," Tony said, letting out a sigh of relief upon seeing Athena.

"Hmph, what could possibly happen to me? I'm invincible online," Athena said confidently.

"Hehe, it's not that I don't trust you, I'm just worried. How did it go?" Tony asked with a slight smile.

“It’s all settled now. I’ve eliminated Dr. Zola and rewritten a program to replace him, so we can keep track of Red Skull’s plans at any time,” Athena said calmly.

"Great!" Tony shouted immediately upon hearing this.

The others were also very happy. After all, no matter what era the war was in, intelligence was still the most important thing. As long as you had some intelligence and made full preparations in advance, you would have an 80% chance of winning the war. As for the remaining 20%, you could leave it to miracles or other things.

"Also, I already know about Hydra's plans against the Avengers. They want to use some hostages to lure you over, and then they plan to trap you. Their trump cards are some people with abilities enhanced by alien technology, as well as some powerful weapons made with alien technology." Athena then told them the information she had obtained.

"Alien technology too, huh? So Red Skull was backed by aliens after all." Tony stroked his chin and said, "But now that you know, do you have a way to deal with these weapons?"

The Avengers weren't afraid of the superpowered individuals, but they were still somewhat worried about these unknown alien weapons. Tony was also very fortunate that if Athena hadn't helped them eliminate Dr. Zola and unexpectedly obtained this information, they would have been caught in a carefully planned scheme by Red Skull, a kind of open conspiracy that the Avengers had no choice but to participate in.

“We have to thank Dr. Zola for this. He left a backup plan when he was making the weapons, and now these backup plans will be the key to our victory. In a moment, we will split into two groups. I will control Dr. Zola’s mechanical clone to tell Red Skull that the first batch of weapons has been developed and let him use them. Once Red Skull leaves, the Extreme Ones will immediately set out to rescue people. As for the rest of us, we will go to the location where Red Skull is preparing to ambush them and launch a counter-ambush!” Athena said confidently.

After hearing this, Tony turned around and asked the others, "What do you think?"

“I think that’s a good idea. Let’s take a two-pronged approach and wipe out Red Skull in one fell swoop,” T’Challa nodded slightly after hearing this.

“I will notify SHIELD and have them attack their camp while Red Skull is away,” Hawkeye added.

“We have no problem at all. This is your territory, and we’ll do as you say.” As a representative of a superhero from another world, Constantine shrugged, indicating that he was ready to fight at any time.

"That's good. We'll wait for your news, Athena," Tony said to Athena.

"Okay, don't worry, wait for my good news." After Athena finished speaking, she paused and said to Hawkeye, "By the way, tell the people from S.H.I.E.L.D. to be careful. Actually, there's a powerful figure like the Mandarin in the military camp."

"Okay, but don't worry, Johnny is with our new Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., Phil Coulson, and their team is very capable," Hawkeye nodded slightly.

"Okay, I'm going back now. I'll let you know if there's any news."

After Athena finished speaking, she used teleportation to leave. She wanted to return to the watchtower to be with Adam. As for what they had talked about earlier, she had already assigned tasks to the new Skynet system while they were discussing it, so Athena would know immediately if there was any news.

==================Watchtower===========

When Athena returned, Adam was playing with Ganata, who was pestering him to take her to Disneyland. Adam, meanwhile, was happily entertaining little Ganata.

Adam, seeing that Athena had returned, patted Ganata's little head and laughed, "Alright, there's a battle going on down there right now. Let's go together in a while, okay?"

"Fight a war? You can tell them not to fight. You're so powerful, they'll definitely listen to you," Janata pouted.

“Ganata, sometimes even the greatest power can’t change certain things.” Adam shook his head slightly and said, “Alright, go play with your friends. Athena and I have some things to discuss. After we’re done, I’ll take you to Disneyland, how about that?”

“Mom is coming too,” Janata said, looking at Adam.

"Okay, Athena will come too. Let's go play." Adam kissed the little girl and smiled.

As Ganata ran out to play with the mutant children from the lower levels, Athena sat down next to Adam and said, "You're starting to feel like a father more and more."

"Really? Hehe, I've been reading books on this topic lately. Although Janata used to call me father, I didn't know what it felt like to be a father back then. But ever since I heard I was going to have a child, I've subconsciously started learning." Adam smiled slightly and said, "By the way, how's things going over there?"

“I have already eliminated Dr. Zola and learned about some of Red Skull’s plans through control of the Skynet system. I have made arrangements to deal with this. Red Skull has no doubts about the current Skynet system and is carrying out his plan,” Athena said with a smile.

"That's good. By the way, what happened to the time remnant?" Adam asked.

Actually, he wasn't 100% sure about this matter, since he didn't know much about God Power and the Flash, which is why he asked the question.

“It is indeed feasible. Jaygaric has already entered the divine power to inquire, but the other party also said that they would have to return after rescuing the person.” Athena briefly explained what had happened on the other side.

“I understand. It seems the real showdown isn’t far off.” Adam nodded slightly and said, “You continue to keep an eye on this matter. I’ll go check if our guests have arrived.”

"Master, are you referring to the mastermind behind everything?" Athena asked immediately.

"Hmm, I vaguely sense a very strong aura approaching Earth. This should be the person behind Red Skull," Adam said, standing up.

At this moment, he was exuding an astonishing aura. Since his strength had grown stronger, he had only used his full power when fighting against people from another world. He had not fought properly many times. He regarded this battle as his last battle on Earth, and his fighting spirit was burning!

Chapter 451 The Red Skull's Utter Defeat

Inside an abandoned building in Turkey, in a spacious area on the fifth floor, three hostages were tied up, their faces obscured by black hoods. Judging from their build, they appeared to be American. Around the three hostages stood seven people, dressed in typical terrorist attire and carrying AKs.

Opposite them was a camera flashing green, indicating that it was filming. On the wall behind them hung a banner unique to the Ten Commandments Gang. The whole scene looked like a terrorist's murder and intimidation prank.

The first terrorist on the right stepped forward and spoke in Middle Eastern-accented English that he wanted to kill the American journalists for filming unauthorized locations, insulting their fellow citizens, and so on. Everything seemed to make sense.

In a villa not far from here, Red Skull was sitting on the sofa watching a murder scene being broadcast live. And there wasn't just one screen in the room; next to the television playing the live broadcast, there were about nine other screens displaying images of the area around and inside the abandoned building that had been targeted earlier. Clearly, this was a trap set for the Avengers.

There are not only nearly a hundred mechanical soldiers around this abandoned building, but also a considerable number of enhanced soldiers, superhumans, and so on. In addition to these, Red Skull also secretly had Dr. Zola plant a large number of bombs around the abandoned building. If the Avengers arrive, even if they defeat these people, they will be blown to bits by the bombs!

Of course, this situation could only occur when Dr. Zola was still Dr. Zola. Unfortunately, the current Dr. Zola is not himself at all, but a spy played by the Skynet system, which was reprogrammed by Athena. Therefore, the bombs made with alien technology buried around and inside the building are just empty shells that look scary on the outside but cannot explode at all. As for those more than one hundred mechanical soldiers, they are secret weapons used to deal with the superpowered people in their vicinity.

The only real thing here is probably the three American journalists who were kidnapped inside the building. At this moment, Red Skull is in a villa not far from the abandoned building, watching the images on the television. A feeling of complete control over everything arises in his heart, and he thoroughly enjoys this thrill of being in control, even if it is only his own imagination.

"Has the Avengers received the news?" Red Skull asked Dr. Zola, holding a glass of red wine and putting his legs on the coffee table in front of him.

"Yes, they've received the message. Based on the information I have, it should take them about ten minutes to get here." Dr. Zola returned to Red Skull, referring to some of Dr. Zola's habits from his data.

"Well, let those people over there keep acting. Just don't let them kill the hostages before they even arrive." Red Skull looked at the scene before him and said with an ugly smile.

"I've already made arrangements. Once the Avengers arrive, we'll start killing them!" Dr. Zola's android also adopted a sinister expression, saying, "This will be an even bigger blow to these self-proclaimed righteous guys."

"Hahahaha, that's exactly how it should be! Dr. Zola, your idea is brilliant!" Red Skull laughed heartily, as if he could already see the goddess of victory beckoning to him.

Skynet, however, secretly despised Red Skull, who was unaware of the impending doom. Athena knew all his plans and had tasked him with setting up this trap to expose Red Skull's true intentions. Unfortunately, Red Skull hadn't revealed his true cards yet, but Skynet wasn't in a hurry. In any case, Red Skull's defeat was inevitable.

While Red Skull had arranged the actors and the location, waiting to reenact the Avengers being tricked, the Avengers in Wakanda were already prepared, just waiting for Red Skull's move. As soon as the terrorist's live stream came out, they immediately began their operation.

With the help of the portals created by Athena, Zatanna, and an Asian woman named Blink, all the speedsters began to run towards the locations of people controlled by nanobots around the world. One after another, time remnants flew through the dozen or so open portals to various parts of the world to carry out their missions.

As for the Avengers, superheroes from other worlds, and some X-Men, they boarded a S.H.I.E.L.D. transport plane, Phil Coulson's Airbus, and sped to the location of the terrorist in Turkey.

With everything ready, the Airbus carrying the Avengers and Supergirl flew for about ten minutes, arriving at the abandoned building five minutes earlier than Skynet predicted. Thanks to the Airbus's unique stealth capabilities, and Skynet's ability to conceal the arrival of Red Skull and the others, they were completely unaware that the Avengers had arrived.

Meanwhile, the old generation Flash, Jai Garrick, the new generation Speedster, Jessie Quick, Kid Flash, and Quicksilver, who gained the Speed ​​Force's approval because of Adam, had been creating tens of thousands of Time Residues. They began to continuously enter and exit the portals created by Athena and the others. In just five minutes, they had removed the nanobots from the bodies of three million people controlled by nanobots and transferred them to relatively safe locations.

Of course, creating tens of thousands of time remnants at once is a risk. After all, human thinking is not fixed and is constantly changing. Therefore, a person's inner self is also constantly changing. One moment you are a hero, and the next moment you may become a super villain for various reasons. This kind of thing is very common, especially for superpowered individuals like speedsters who can manipulate time at will. Such possibilities are also very numerous.

However, long before the Speed ​​Force agreed to allow Jai Garrick to create a large number of time remnants, the Speed ​​Force had already considered the possibility of such a thing. Therefore, it directly severed the relationship between these people and the Speed ​​Force, and directly eliminated a large number of black lightning bolts to eliminate these time remnants that should not exist on their way back. Although this seems a bit cruel, it is the best result for the Speed ​​Force and those speedsters. Otherwise, they would be fighting each other.

Moreover, one advantage of having four people here is that Barry Allen is not here. As long as Barry Allen, the creator of the Speed ​​Force, is not here, the Speed ​​Force can freely sever the relationship between the Speed ​​Force and the Speed ​​Force, ensuring that these tens of thousands of time remnants are obediently eliminated, instead of wandering around and causing the end of the world.

The relationship between the Speed ​​Force and the speedsters is actually quite strange. Apart from Barry Allen, the creator, everyone else is using the Speed ​​Force. Of course, the Speed ​​Force generally doesn't interfere with the activities of these speedsters. Whether they are evil or good is completely meaningless to the Speed ​​Force; they are just lucky ones chosen by the Speed ​​Force.

Barry Allen is completely different. The Speed ​​Force was born the moment Barry Allen was struck by lightning and became the Flash. However, because of the Speed ​​Force's unique property of ignoring time, there have been other versions of the Flash or other speedsters before Barry Allen. This is a strange statement, but it is not strange in the face of the even stranger power that is the Speed ​​Force.
