Chapter 203
Su Quan shrugged noncommittally. "I was just curious about Barry Allen's Speed Force, so I used it to test it out."
Dr. Harrison Wells shook his head with a serious expression. What he cared about was not that Su Quan used the Speed Force generated by Barry Allen, but why Su Quan was able to use Barry Allen's Speed Force!
As far as he knew, only his Negative Speed Force could become a third party to the Speed Force, capable of absorbing and using Speed Force.
Now that Su Quan can do the same thing, he has to consider a question.
If he can also exploit the Speed Force like I can, what should I do?
"Over the past five years, we have gotten along very well and cooperated very happily. I have truly come to regard you as a friend!"
"So I won't explore the secrets of your abilities, but you must tell me today what exactly your Speed Force is all about!"
"You know, you just stole the Speed Force that should have been mine!"
Su Quan laughed dismissively and said, "Relax, relax, don't be so serious. You need to understand, I didn't steal your Speed Force. I just used the same method as you to take advantage of it!"
"Barry has only just woken up. Once he's on the right track and becomes the Flash, he'll have enough Speed Force energy for both of us to exploit. You exploit, I exploit, we exploit together, we grow bigger and stronger together, isn't that great?"
Dr. Harrison Wells frowned. "You can share the Speed Force with me?!"
Su Quan narrowed his eyes slightly. "You're unwilling?"
Dr. Harrison Wells scoffed, "Are you willing to suddenly share something that was once yours alone with someone else?"
Su Quan curled his lip. "I don't want to either, but—there's nothing you can do if you don't want to. It's because you can't beat me or kill me!"
Dr. Harrison Wells's gaze was icy, and he gritted his teeth. This bastard was clearly bullying people!
"Don't look at me like that, as if the Speed Force agreed when you stole Speed Force." Su Quan waved his hand and chuckled, "How about this, I'll give you a chance."
Dr. Harrison Wells asked, "What opportunity!"
"I'll just use it during this time. Anyway, we can share the Speed Force we've gathered. You can recover your strength and speed as soon as possible, and then we can have a match."
"You win. I will no longer exploit the Speed Force energy generated by Barry Allen, nor will I use it."
"I won. Stop nagging about this. Let's continue our cooperation as usual and remain friends."
"How about it?"
"Good!"
Dr. Harrison Wells agreed.
Actually, there are only benefits and no drawbacks to pooling Speed Force energy together.
The Speed Force has unlimited energy. Once Barry Allen becomes the Flash, other speedsters will be born. At that time, whether Dr. Harrison Wells or Su Quan uses it, it won't matter.
Dr. Harrison Wells's stance boils down to two reasons.
First: He is genuinely unhappy. It's normal for him to be unhappy that something that was once exclusive has become shared.
Second: Don't be fooled by his nice words about not exploring the secrets of your abilities. In the end, he still wants to know what Su Quan's abilities are all about, especially since Su Quan also has the Negative Speed Force. He's even more eager to find out.
Of course, Su Quan didn't have any good intentions either.
The competition was merely a stopgap measure, simply to keep Dr. Harrison Wells on track.
Once he has finished what he needs to do, Su Quan will immediately absorb and convert all the shared Speed Force to enhance his own Speed Force.
Then he'll become an ordinary person without speed again.
Because he can only use the Speed Force, unlike Su Quan can convert the Speed Force he borrows into his own and enhance his Speed Force.
If he doesn't cooperate and insists on causing trouble, then there's no need to wait until later; absorb and transform him now, making him a 'useless person' again!
His fate was sealed long ago.
Either become a cripple or die.
Alternatively, abandon the Negative Speed Force, use your own Speed Force, become your own Speedster, and build upon your Speed Force!
There is a special connection between the Negative Speed Force and the Speed Force. If the Speed Force is likened to a river, the Negative Speed Force is like a branch of that river. You can obtain Speed Force energy naturally without doing anything.
You can replenish as much as you need.
A continuous stream.
Reverse-Flash is like a creature in a ditch; it can freely use the Speed Force energy within the ditch, but it cannot transfer the Speed Force energy outside the ditch.
Su Quan, however, was different.
Although he was also in the ditch and could freely use the Speed Force energy within it, he possessed a black hole that could absorb the Speed Force from the ditch and transfer it outside the ditch.
As long as he keeps absorbing, he can completely drain the Speed Force energy in the ditch, causing the creatures in the ditch to die of drought, and he can even swallow larger creatures whole and drain the entire river.
Su Quan to do this has nothing to do with the Negative Speed Force; it mainly relies on his Absorption Ability.
His Absorption Ability was already superimposed with that of Starlight, Black King Shaw, Zombie Wanda, Alien Jonah, Killer Frost, and more than 500 Kryptonians, so the absorption effect was not exactly groundbreaking, but it was not far off.
Moreover, all those years of sun exposure weren't for nothing; his cells can store an enormous amount of Speed Force energy.
If it were someone else, absorbing too much would probably cause them to explode from the sheer amount of Speed Force energy!
His only disadvantage right now is that the conversion speed is relatively slow. The absorption and conversion speeds are not proportional. When the energy volume is small, it has little impact, but when the volume is large, the difference becomes apparent.
If quantified, the effect on a large scale is about five to one.
Absorb five portions of the Speed Force energy and convert one portion!
"Bite!"
"Combat detected. Reward dropped: Weather Manipulation (Clyde Madden)"
The sudden drop of rewards stunned Su Quan for a moment. His Combat Detection Range had reached over 7,000 meters, and rewards would drop whenever a battle occurred within this range.
It's mostly battles between ordinary people, and the rewards are all Points.
The more Points you drop, the wider the combat detection range becomes; the wider the range, the more Points you drop, creating a perfect cycle.
Truly, you can sit at home and receive a reward from heaven!
To avoid the constant ringing in his head, Su Quan had already turned off the sound of reward drops for Points.
"Clyde Madden — Weather Manipulation— "
"Is this Weather Wizard?"
Su Quan remembered that there were three Weather Wizards in total. The first ones were the Marden brothers. They were originally bank robbers. On the night the Particle Accelerator exploded, they escaped in a small plane but were hit by the energy of the explosion, thus gaining the ability to Weather Manipulation.
This ability is both powerful and average. If used well, it can destroy a city, but if it encounters an opponent with a counter-ability, it will be defeated in no time.
Su Quan glanced at the system panel; this ability had been merged with the original ability to Create Any Form of Wind into the ability to Weather Manipulation.
The Weather Wizard, who served as Barry Allen's first rival in becoming the Flash, was only so-so in terms of strength, and it seems he was eventually shot and killed by Joe West!
Whether he lives or dies is not important at all; what matters is that his abilities are still useful!
Just like obtaining Barry Allen's Speed Force from the Justice League Universe, one can acquire his power by making a wish.
Then--
It can be used to enhance one's own ability in this area, or it can be used to recruit subordinates.
As mentioned earlier, there are three Weather Wizards: Clyde Madden, his brother Mark Madden, and— Mark Madden's Daughter.
However, she did not have a good relationship with her father and uncle. Originally a meteorologist, she later used a high-tech wand or magic wand to control the weather. After her plot to kill her father failed, she planned to destroy Central City, but was eventually defeated by the Flash.
Su Quan wasn't interested in the feud between the father and daughter, but he was quite fond of her looks and personality!
Since Clyde Madden is dead anyway, and his abilities were wasted, it's better to trade for him and have another usable girl. (This isn't an extra word; think about it carefully!)
"Su Quan, come to the surface control room quickly! You won't believe what happened to Barry!" Cisco's excited voice rang out over the loudspeaker.
When Su Quan arrived at the surface control room, everyone else was already there. Barry Allen said that he suddenly could run incredibly fast, like a bolt of Flash, and called Su Quan over to do a test together to see just how fast he could run.
An abandoned airport.
Cisco Ramon provided Barry Allen with equipment to monitor his physical condition and enable clear communication even while moving at high speeds.
After bustling around preparing for half an hour, Barry Allen, wearing his favorite red bodysuit, dashed out with a bang after Cisco shouted "Start!"
A strong wind blew them backward, and even Dr. Harrison Wells's electric wheelchair slid far backward. However, unlike Cisco and Caitlin Cisco, his face Caitlin no surprise, but rather an ambiguous expression.
It seemed like a remembrance, a sigh, and a sense of relief all at the same time.
It's indescribably complicated.
Su Quan held Kate in his arms, and when the strong wind subsided, he patted her shoulder and said softly, "It's alright, it's over now."
Caitlin stood up and said fiercely, "We can't get through."
???
Su Quan looked completely bewildered.
"If you don't swear this time that you will never mess around outside again, I will never forgive you."
Su Quan:...
This happened two chapters ago, it's still not over yet!
Um, and also, could you please change the lines you use when you break up and get back together? You said the same thing last time!
So, the flowers in the garden are never as fragrant as the wild ones!
