v5 Chapter 225： Finally fattened

"I?"

Barry pointed at himself with a look of surprise, and everyone in the laboratory cast their gazes on him.

"How can I help?"

"I need your speed."

Ethan's words left everyone at a loss, so he had to explain to everyone what super power is.

In fact, Ethan doesn’t know much about Shensu Li, but the group of people in front of him hasn’t even heard of Shensu Li. It’s the first time I heard about this from Ethan today, and Barry finally knew it. Being able to run so fast turned out to be a matter of speed and strength.

"Not dark matter?"

Everyone, including Barry himself at this time (except for the reverse lightning disguised as Harrison Wells), has always thought that his special ability was caused by the dark matter released by the particle accelerator explosion. As a result, Ethan told him today that the actual The source of his power is something called the speed force, which is completely different from his original guess.

"So... you want this kind of power called speed force?"

"Yes it is."

Following Ethan's explanation, everyone finally knew Ethan's purpose, which was to obtain this kind of power called speed force from Barry.

"How to do it?"

"For now, I can only wait for you to run faster and faster."

"Let me run faster and faster?"

Barry's running movements and stride range have hardly changed, and his running posture has not changed much, but his speed has been increasing, which is the effect of superpower.

The closeness of the connection between Barry and the speed force, or the amount of Barry’s own “creation” of the speed force directly affects Barry’s speed. Conversely, it means that the faster Barry’s speed, the greater the speed of his body. many.

Ethan wants super power, so he needs a Barry fast enough.

"So... just run hard, Barry."

It sounds like he is encouraging himself, but Barry always has a weird feeling that he is like a livestock being raised, and he will be slaughtered when he is fed enough fat.

"You want to get that kind of power called speed force. In the end, you don't want to kill me and then seize this kind of power?"

"Huh?" Ethan waved his hand: "No need, super power can be extracted easily."

Not to mention the existence of Ethan's strong control over energy, even Caitlin and Sisko on the side can extract the superb power from Barry's body through technological means.

"And you don't have to worry, it will not cause any harm or even burden to you."

Ethan explained his purpose and repeatedly stressed that he would not cause harm to Barry, and Joe West breathed a sigh of relief.

Of course, it is impossible for him to completely put down his guard against Ethan and others, even if Ethan has repeatedly assured that he will not believe what Ethan says.

In the days to come, the Flash will still deal with those transforming criminals in Midtown. Ethan also ran to the cutting-edge laboratory from time to time to stay, and from time to time he would give his own suggestions. As a result, he found Barry Allen It's even more troublesome than Arrow Oliver Quinn.

Even if he was deflated again and again, he always ignored Ethan's suggestions, so after a few times, Ethan gradually stopped giving his own suggestions.

He quietly waited for the superb power in Barry to reach a certain level, and then extracted the weight he needed from it, and then completed his plan.

During this period of time, Ethan didn't do anything at all. The last time he came into contact with Inverse Lightning, he ‘got’ very little superpower from Inverse Lightning.

Ethan has specially studied this small part of the speed force, and even conducted some tests with these speed forces, and finally came to the conclusion that only a small part of the speed force energy needs to be extracted from Barry to meet his own needs.

This is a good thing, because it means he doesn't need to touch the speed force itself, just touch Barry Allen.

Compared to the supernatural power of babbling and self-consciousness, Barry is undoubtedly a lot easier to talk-especially Barry is a good old man. He generally won't refuse to help when someone asks him if he doesn't hurt others. .

At this moment, Barry encountered the murderer who was suspected of killing his mother, and Barry was not his opponent at all.

Whether it's speed or combat experience, Barry, who is at a disadvantage, is simply beaten by the opponent at will.

Frustrated, Barry found Ethan when he couldn't think of a way.

"Do you want me to help you figure out a way to deal with that person?"

Ethan will often stay in the cutting-edge laboratory during this time. He is like a member of the cutting-edge laboratory, and everyone has become accustomed to his existence.

Although Ethan is not a scientist, when the Flash dealt with various criminals who transformed people, most of his suggestions were not adopted (in fact, none of them were adopted, because in Ethan’s view, he tried hard to catch those guys and still It's better to kill it directly, so his advice is: Barry, use a knife!).

In addition, Barry and Ethan also practice duels in their spare time, which makes it impossible to look directly at the scene.

Barry, who thought he had super speed and was completely impossible to lose, was taught to be a man again and again by Ethan. Ethan always knew what he was going to do in the next second. Fireball or some other magical energy is released on his "must pass".

Even if he can avoid it with his strong reaction and super speed, the next second he will be hit by Ethan's indiscriminate attack spell, and then he will be violently beaten by Ethan, who has mastered the initiative.

When the two practiced, people often visited and did not shy away from everyone, so Dr. Harrison Wells also saw how Ethan cleaned up the Flash.

Compared with the naive Barry Allen, Harrison found more details: Ethan's reaction speed can easily keep up with Barry's speed, even if he does not use that wide range of attack magic, only relying on his fists and feet Barry. Don't even think about getting it right-I have personally experienced the reverse lightning of Ethan's power, and I have enough say in this.

This also meant that Ethan's strength was much stronger than he had previously predicted, which made Ni Lightning even more afraid to act rashly.

Ethan, who was unexpectedly shocked by the reverse lightning, had a more comfortable life. At the same time, his relationship with Sisko and Caitlin was getting better and better. At least the two of them now regard him as a good one. Friends of, I often make jokes or something on weekdays.

The relationship with Barry is not as awkward as it was at the beginning, so Barry will ask Ethan for help when in trouble.

"Yes, I don't know how to beat him."

"You said he is faster than you, so you don't know what to do?"

"That's it."

Ethan pondered for a while, seeming to be thinking about the way to deal with it. Sisko and Caitlin next to him looked at Ethan expectantly, wanting to know what kind of solution Ethan would give, or say What kind of training plan will Barry design?

As a result, Ethan's answer almost caused two people to vomit blood.

"It's very simple, as long as you change faster."

"..."

How awkward and awkward the expression on Barry's face is. He thinks that Ethan may not understand the point. If he can be faster, then he still needs to ask Ethan for help? He just felt that he couldn't get faster, so he wanted to think of other ways.

But Ethan directly denied his guess without waiting for him to speak.

"Barry... you are a good person, you have a lofty character, you have done a lot for this city... but you are not a qualified fighter."

In Ethan’s eyes, Barry don’t talk about being excellent, he can’t even talk about being qualified. His fighting consciousness is about nothing, and the rules he set for himself make many effective combat methods unavailable-strictly speaking. , The Flash is a good citizen who has super abilities, abides by the law, and often does good deeds. There is no essential difference from the ordinary people who help the elderly cross the road every day.

For Barry like this, even if Ethan worked out a training plan for him, the final effect would not be so good, and he might even be angry with Ethan.

Since Barry will definitely not follow the way he teaches, it is better to let him continue to run on the road of his ‘good at’.

"Even if I teach you all the fighting skills, how much can you use in battle?"

Barry opened his mouth and suddenly understood the meaning of Ethan's words. Obviously, the fighting skills taught by Ethan will cause harm to the enemy. This is not what Barry wants to do. Even in the face of criminals, he does not want to hurt the opponent, let alone kill the opponent.

"So there is actually only one choice before you."

"I understand."

Barry finally realized that he had no choice at all. He wanted to defeat another mysterious speed man, the only way was to make himself faster than the other party.

"Thank you for your guidance."

"I didn't point you to anything."

"No you made me realize what is best for me."

Barry expressed his gratitude very sincerely, and then began to wonder how to further improve his speed.

I don't know if it is because of Ethan's words that Barry has strengthened his belief, his speed has indeed improved, and by this time, Ethan is also ready to start drawing superb power from Barry.

After Ethan expressed this idea, almost everyone gathered in the cutting-edge laboratory, including Tony, who didn't know where to hang out recently, all came back specifically to witness this moment.

"I thought you went home early."

"How is it possible, I have missed the time when you became smaller, but I don't want to miss the scene when you grow up again."

The conversation between the two made the people around him completely incomprehensible, but no one asked this at this time. For example, Joe West was more concerned about whether Barry was really unharmed.

"Don't worry, absolutely not!"
