Eric concentrated, separating a small portion of his power from within his body, and the surrounding metal objects melted into liquid.
These liquid metals converged according to Eric's will, clinging tightly to the surface of the box, constantly thickening and solidifying.
In an instant, this originally ordinary-sized box grew at a visible speed, quickly reaching a height of six meters.
At the same time, the violently shaking box finally quieted down, no longer swaying, and seeing this, Eric secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"I told you, it's still not enough."
Boom—
A deafening roar suddenly erupted. The massive box exploded like a detonated bomb.
Countless fragments and surging Impact shot out in all directions, forming an extremely terrifying force.
Eric, at the center of the explosion, had no time to react and was blown away by this incredibly powerful Impact.
Accompanied by a dull, heavy thud that echoed throughout the space, Eric felt as if all the bones in his body were about to fall apart.
He immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.
Raven, who was outside, had not run far when she heard a loud bang. Looking back, the ceiling of the abandoned warehouse had been blown sky-high, scattering into countless fragments.
A massive cloud of smoke billowed upwards, like a menacing mushroom cloud, engulfing the entire warehouse.
"Eric!"
The unconscious Brotherhood members were also startled awake, staring blankly at the warehouse.
"Cough, cough… What kind of monster are you!"
Eric leaned against the wall behind him, looking at the figure vaguely visible in the dust.
Whoosh—
A strong gust of wind swept through the warehouse, blowing the dust into the sky, revealing Qinuo's figure.
"Monster? I am one hundred percent pure human."
Eric's mouth twitched. He controlled the metal on his body to help himself stand up. His pride would not allow him to collapse on the ground so disheveled.
"I don't know any human who possesses thousands of tons of strength and can spew out gales."
Eric snorted coldly, his eyes filled with doubt.
"Don't underestimate the potential of humans. I know two people who surpassed gods with mortal bodies."
Qinuo looked at the blood on Eric's lips, concerned, "Are your injuries serious?"
"I won't die!"
Eric replied defiantly.
"Then let's go!"
"Go where?"
"To save your wife and daughter. Do you still remember the time and place?"
Eric glared at Qinuo, roaring, "They're dead! They've been dead for over ten years! How can I save them? Travel through time?"
His eyes were bloodshot, his voice almost a scream, as the pain in his heart was reopened.
"Then, do you want to take a gamble?"
Qinuo didn't mind Eric's anger and extended a hand.
Eric stared intently at the hand in front of him, his gaze a mix of struggle and hesitation.
Reason told him that time travel was absolutely impossible, yet emotion ignited a tiny spark of hope in his almost despairing heart.
What if, what if this was real? His breathing became rapid, and the internal conflict made his body tremble slightly.
These thoughts intertwined in Eric's mind, and finally, his hand slowly rose and grasped Qinuo's hand.
"October 18, 1983, Carmel Town, Texas. If you dare to trick me, you'll never recruit me in this lifetime."
Eric spoke the most defiant words, yet his eyes revealed a hint of desperate determination.
Qinuo smiled slightly, and the Flash's emblem lit up on his chest.
"Eric!"
Raven appeared at the doorway with the Brotherhood members, her face full of worry.
Eric looked at Raven and said loudly, "Raven, if I don't return, the Brotherhood will disband. Take them to Charles."
"Roar!"
Sabretooth didn't care about any of this. He roared, got on all fours, and leaped.
The next moment, yellow lightning appeared around the two of them. Instantly, the entire World fell silent.
"This is… time stop."
Eric stared in shock at Raven, who was frozen mid-charge, and Sabretooth, who was floating in mid-air in a leaping posture.
"Don't throw up."
Qinuo reminded him.
With that, he grabbed Eric, enveloped in yellow lightning, and vanished from the spot.
Sabretooth pounced at nothing, falling heavily to the ground and kicking up a cloud of dust.
This was a World of colorful light streams, where dazzling lights intertwined like dreamlike ribbons. In this World, flashes of lightning occasionally exploded, each containing a power so immense it was heart-stopping.
This was the Speed Force space, where past, present, and future were all connected.
The endless light streams seemed to be the 脈絡 of time, mysterious and full of unknowns.
And speedsters with the Speed Force could travel to the past and future through this magical space.
Qinuo was also trying it for the first time and didn't expect to succeed on the first try.
Quickly confirming the direction of the past, he grabbed Eric and began to run frantically.
Eric's eyes widened as he watched the rapidly flowing light around them.
As they sped forward, vivid scenes from the past flashed before his eyes like movie frames.
First, he saw himself sitting quietly at a table, engrossed in reading a book;
Then, the scene shifted, and he saw Hedgehog Man and Toad Man fighting fiercely, neither giving an inch;
Subsequently, Raven's figure appeared, carrying a box and hurrying back…
That's right, they were truly traveling through time! Just as Eric was immersed in this fact and excitedly overwhelmed.
Qinuo suddenly frowned slightly as a green light appeared before him. Without hesitation, he immediately took Eric out of the Speed Force space.
The next moment, they appeared on the warehouse roof.
Before Eric could observe his surroundings, a familiar sound suddenly came from below.
"Who!"
Qinuo reacted quickly, taking Eric and turning into a yellow lightning bolt, instantly arriving at a nearby hillside. This position offered a perfect view of the warehouse below.
"Lao Wan, your temper is really volatile. You're already trying to kill before we even meet." Qinuo looked at the scattered flying needles and teased.
Eric also looked over, realizing that this was a week in the past. He looked at Qinuo, his eyes filled with awe.
"May I ask why we stopped?" Eric couldn't help but ask.
"I forgot to report in, Sorcerer Supreme, can you make way?" Qinuo looked up at the sky.
A note fluttered down from the sky, and Qinuo took it and read.
You can save people, but the trajectory of the past timeline cannot change.
"Understood. Thanks, Sorcerer."
