Chapter 111 - 108 The Arrival Of A New Era.
…
Flying wasn't a great feeling.
There was no such thing as a smooth, comfortable and accessible experience.
On the contrary, with the increasing speed, the air compressed into a dense and highly thick 'substance,' which was like sticky glue—making it impossible for people to do anything.
'It looks like I'll have to get used to it in the future. '
Luke felt the turbulent flow of air and silently thought so.
If he hadn't opened his bio force field at high speed, he would have been on fire, like a meteor falling into the atmosphere.
"A little faster!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In the clouds, a continuous explosive sound emitted.
If Luke was compared to a fighter plane, he would be in a full sprint at about Mach 1 or 2.
The bio force field could isolate the external high-temperature friction, but it couldn't stop the turbulent air currents from wrapping the entire body tightly.
Every time he accelerated, the resistance was like an iron wall in front of him.
The seemingly weightless gas would become extraordinarily strong after being continuously compressed.
"If only we had the power of the Speed Force. "
Luke was thinking wildly and remembered Superman and The Flash's race.
Considering the unscientific and extraordinary existence of the Speed Force, a powerful plug-in that could beat down the rules of physics to the ground repeatedly, Superman would most likely not be able to outrun The Flash.
There have been several such matches in the comics,
Except for two ties, they were won by the Flash.
It's a pity that the Speed Force is only of use to The Flash in terms of sacrificing to the heavens, restarting the universe, pushing people, saving people, and so on. It rarely played a role in frontal combat.
So much so that it's often teased that the way the Flash fights was to spin around like crazy, make the enemy dizzy, and then push them down.
'I wonder if the heart of the Justice League would come over the wall for a visit?'
Luke smiled, but he had to admit that the existence of The Flash, Barry Allen, diluted the dark style of the studio next door.
If Central City and Gotham are put together, it looks like two cities from two different worlds.
"Berlin, here I come. "
Ending the meaningless thoughts, Luke, like a human supersonic aircraft, blasted through the sound barrier.
Above the clouds, cone-shaped clouds kept appearing.
The journey from Paris to Berlin was about 800 kilometers.
It took 12 days to walk.
It took a day and a half by bus.
It took 6 hours by train.
Luke, on the other hand, only needed a few moments to get there.
……
……
Bang!
A loud sound erupted.
Like a bomber dropping shells.
The underground research institute in Berlin suddenly shook.
A tall figure passed through the thick concrete floor and slammed into it.
The steel armor-like battle suit, the fluttering dark red cloak, and how it descended from the sky shocked people.
"Are you …"
"The Allied Superman!"
"Good heavens!"
"…"
Luke's photos had been published in newspapers worldwide, and his appearance has long been known to everyone.
However, this is the first time the 'Superman' image was officially used.
"The Third Reich is finished! Leave or resist. You're free to choose. "
Luke used his supervision to scan through the structure and layout of the underground institute and recorded it all in his mind.
The concrete brick wall couldn't stop Superman's gaze, and it took less than a few seconds to locate General Sankt.
When they heard the news that the Third Reich had collapsed, the researchers in white coats were at a loss, not knowing whether to believe or remain suspicious.
But they were all intelligent enough to get out of the way, whether the news was accurate or not, none of the people here could stop Luke.
Instead of being punched and killed by this Allied Superman, it's better to retain a sound body and strive for continued loyalty to the Third Reich.
This was not cowardice, but following one's inner will.
The researchers look at each other and reach a tacit understanding.
"The Allied bastard…"
Meanwhile, a fanatic stood up and bravely stood in front of Luke.
Before he could finish his words of rebuke, he was vaporized by Heat Vision and turned into a charred black skeleton.
"Courage is commendable. Who else?"
Luke looked around, spoke with a gentle tone, and no one could see any cruelty at all.
But just moments ago, everyone witnessed him take the life of a fellow human being.
After a few moments, the room was silent, and no one answered.
Luke walked forward with a straight face. He didn't have a 'no-kill policy' and held no compassion for the enemy.
During those years of painting the house in Brooklyn, Uncle Frank had said countless times of what would happen if he kept ridiculous compassion on the battlefield.
Therefore, even if Sieglinde was a woman, Luke didn't hold back.
She wasn't a sinless person without blood on her hands; there was no need to waste too much emotion.
Boom!
Luke kicked open the door of the war room.
General Sankt, who took the lead in the rebellion and became the new leader of the Third Reich less than a month ago, sat in a chair.
In front of him are many maps of war zones, and many places were marked with red pens.
It was clear that the General was determined to save the Empire from its downfall.
Unfortunately, in the end, it failed.
"I thought the Empire could hold on for a while, at least until the next batch of Aryan Supermen was made. "
General Sankt looked calm and wasn't surprised at all by Luke's sudden visit.
"Baron Strucker assured me that as long as I was willing to join Hydra, they would provide for my departure -- you just came too soon, Brigadier General. "
Luke smiled and asked, "Will you really run away, General Sankt? Leave the Third Reich, hide where no one can find you, and wait for the day when you make a comeback. "
When he entered the door, he had already swept the war room with supervision to ensure there was no problem.
After all, in so many film and television works. The desperate villain always makes a crazy move in the end.
"In the second drawer on your right, there's a Luger P08 pistol and four bullets. "
Luke said quietly.
"General Sankt, it seems that you plan on being buried with the Third Reich, which has already lost its power?"
The new leader, who had forcibly renewed Berlin's lifespan, nodded and said thoughtfully, "How can a qualified captain abandon his ship, even if she's going to sink? "
"I respect your passion for your country. But you should know that the Allies would prefer to have you tried in a military court, preferably in front of the whole world, and executed in public -- as a butcher, executioner, and conspirator. "
Luke said indifferently.
The Führer left early, leaving General Sankt as the target of the crowd's anger and hatred.
"I can give you a copy of the original 'Brood' plan, which hasn't been completely deciphered yet. "
General Sankt was at a loss. After learning from Baron Strucker that the 'battleship-class' was probably not Luke's opponent, he lost interest in the 'Perfect Aryan.'
Aryan Supermen, who couldn't even defeat a super soldier, they can't be called 'perfect'!
"Let me end my life decently, Brigadier General. "
Luke thought for a moment and accepted the deal with pleasure.
It didn't make any sense to catch General Sankt and give him to the Allies anyway.
Trial by a military court is just a process.
Allied leaders were looking forward to sharing 'the cake' and distributing benefits.
As for the post-war liquidation, it was just an after-dinner dessert to show the victor's power.
In the original historical timeline, after the Fuhrer committed suicide, he asked his men to burn his body into a mass of charcoal.
Many people once doubted whether this was a trick to get away by faking his death. But they didn't track anyone down after looking for his whereabouts.
A few minutes later, the sound of a gunshot came from the war room.
Immediately afterward, Luke came out, broke the roof without saying a word, and bolted into the sky.
He was looking down on the devastated Berlin. He seemed to have seen the collapse of an Empire—the end of a war and the end of an era.
"So, who will be the master of the new era?"
The corners of Luke's mouth rose as he stood quietly above the clouds.
