Barry Allen encounters unprecedented resistance.
The person opposite seemed to have the ability to predict the future. He could guess his next move and set traps accordingly.
The encirclement is getting tighter and tighter.
He felt like prey caught in a spider web; the more he struggled, the tighter it got.
What makes people even more desperate is the opponent's speed, which is too fast and unbelievable. Before they can adjust, all the data on the panel are reset to zero.
Defeated!
The defeat was so complete and utter that there was nothing to say.
Barry Allen looked ahead blankly, his eyes a little dull. This was the first time he failed in a speed-related project since he possessed the speed force.
Is there anyone in the world with faster hand speed than me?
He couldn't figure it out, and at this moment, an alarm popped up in the security center.
Someone is invading.
It's that guy!
Barry Allen reacted instantly and quickly deployed a defense program. In the hacker battle, the attacker was at a disadvantage and the defender had the advantage. Before, Barry attacked and Luke defended, but now the situation has reversed and Barry has become the one in the advantageous position.
"I must teach you a lesson this time. I am the man with the fastest hand speed in the world."
Barry Allen gritted his teeth, concentrating.
Half a minute later!
The man who was known as the fastest man took his hands off the keyboard and slumped in his chair like a salted fish.
The computer screen turned dark blue with two words in the middle.
YOU FAIL!
The black letters occupy most of the screen, exuding a strong sense of sarcasm.
Lost again, even faster than last time!
Why is this happening?
Am I not the man with the fastest hand speed in the world? There are people who are faster than me.
No, I absolutely do not believe it.
Barry Allen pursed his lips and said nothing, looking at the black letters flashing in front of his eyes. A strong sense of unwillingness surged in his heart. He clenched his right fist and had the urge to punch the screen through it. However, when he thought of the balance in his bank card, he had to endure it.
The black letters slowly faded, and a string of text emerged: Your skills are very good. If you are interested in ShowMe, call this number.
There is a phone number below the text.
Barry Allen was silent for a moment and wrote the phone number in his notebook.
He wanted to know who the guy was who had defeated him.
On the other side, after dealing with the Flash, Luke closed his eyes and fell asleep in the admiring gaze of everyone.
Zack gave a thumbs up, convinced.
The boss is the boss, you can't disobey him.
This hand speed and judgment are simply amazing, even cheating can't achieve this level.
After the show, the work continues.
Before we knew it, the three-hour invasion was over.
Apart from Barry Allen, there is no one else who can open Luke's eyes. None of the more than 3,000 invaders are useful.
Everything was calm online and nothing happened.
The spectators in front of the computers were very disappointed. Before the action started, many computer experts vowed to teach ShowMe a painful lesson and teach them not to be so arrogant.
As a result, I was slapped in the face by ShowMe's technical department. It hurt so much that I had no way to seek justice.
The atmosphere is a little weird.
In a hidden private hospital somewhere in Gotham City, Barbara Gordon sat in front of the computer and scrolled through the screen frantically. After a long while, she still couldn't find anyone who said that he had broken ShowMe's golden body.
If no one spoke, it would mean that more than 3,000 invaders had failed.
"Is ShowMe's defense system really that strong?"
Barbara asked herself this question, and her eyes gradually brightened with a strong fighting spirit.
Barbara is not the only one who has this idea. Many experts in the hacking world are watching.
When the war began,
The first ones to enter the battlefield are always the common soldiers, while the strong ones stand behind. Only when the situation becomes unbearable will they take action, and the outcome will be determined by one battle.
This is what is called the reserve of the strong.
Although it's useless!
Luke knew very well what that group of people were thinking. The only one he didn't expect was Barry Allen. Why did this guy stop being a superhero and start playing on social networks?
But what if we could recruit him into ShowMe?
Luke considered the possibilities, then shook his head.
Barry Allen has deep feelings for Central City, and it would probably be difficult for him to leave his hometown and live in Metropolis.
Just as I was thinking, the phone rang and Luke answered the phone.
"Hello, I'm Luke Xiao, who are you?"
Luke Shaw!
ShowMe boss!
The phone number turned out to be his.
Barry Allen's expression tightened, and his tone became awkward. "Hello... Hello, I'm Barry Allen. I signed up for ShowMe's invasion event. You left your contact number on my desktop."
Luke's mouth dropped open in astonishment. What the hell? This guy must be missing a trick. It's only been a short while, and he's already impatient to call.
After thinking for a while, he said calmly,
"I remember you. You're quite skilled. Of the over 3,000 hackers who broke into ShowMe today, you're the only one who managed to break through the outer firewall."
"Really?"
The brief words contained an unconcealable surprise.
"Of course it's true."
Luke said in a flat tone. Judging from these few sentences of dialogue, the current Flash is probably a rookie with no social experience.
Maybe I can take him in as my younger brother.
Thinking of this, his tone became more calm.
"You have good skills. If you are interested in social networks, we can talk."
On the other end, Barry Allen waved his fist excitedly after hearing this, the job was in his hands.
"Mr. Xiao, do you have time?"
"Of course."
"Can we meet?"
Luke raised an eyebrow, a puzzled look on his face. What the hell? They wanted to meet before we'd even spoken a few words. Even if it was an online romance, there was no need to rush into a physical encounter!
wrong!
Luke suddenly remembered something and turned to walk out.
"Where are you now?"
"It's right in front of your company."
Luke: "…"
As expected, the fastest man in the world cannot be judged by common sense. The central city is nearly two thousand kilometers away from the metropolis, but he just came without even saying hello.
Luke hung up the phone and went to the main entrance of the company.
A young man wearing a plaid shirt and jeans stood next to the elevator, holding a mobile phone in his hand and looking around.
He is not very old, at most twenty years old, with brown hair, a baby face, and penetrating eyes. He has the air of a sunny boy, but his hair is too long and his clothes are a little sloppy. At first glance, he can easily be mistaken for a homeless person.
"Barry Allen?"
Barry nodded quickly, looked Luke up and down, and said in surprise,
"Luke Xiao? No, Mr. Xiao!"
"It's me."
Luke smiled and nodded, glanced at his watch, and said,
"It's almost time to get off work. Do you want to go for a drink with me?"
Barry said awkwardly, "I'm underage and can't drink."
Luke: "…"
You gotta be kidding me!
All right!
As a boss, you must be tolerant.
"Then let's go eat and drink some juice."
