Marvel's Speedster

This stormy battle ended with a complete victory for Ross' side.

Reverse Lightning was arrested, Firestorm died, League of Assassins was eliminated, Atom was beaten to the ground by Captain Cold Snyder and the crowd, Green Arrow and Hawkeye tried their best, and they both lost. In the end, they all fell into the hands of Ross. The only Barry who was not treated seriously thought he had found an opportunity, sneaked into the secret base to rescue the hostages, but was trapped by Eliza who was holding a speed-reducing gun--it was a new type of weapon developed by Ross based on the principle of the turtle's super-ability. Weapons are extremely effective against speedsters like Barry.

At the critical moment, Barry broke free from the restraints of the force field and almost escaped, but Patty, who appeared at the right time, gave him the final blow and fixed his legs on the ground firmly with the nail net specially designed to capture super-ability users, so The Flash also Can only become a prisoner.

The torrential rain subsided, and the next day the Midtown was sunny and the temperature rose. Ross led the defeated Harrison and his party into the state-of-the-art laboratory, formally occupying the original owner's private research institution.

From a noble master to a poor prisoner, the Reverse Lightning from the future is definitely extremely dissatisfied.

"The Speed ​​Force is the result of my life's research, don't expect me to tell you without reservation." Through the transparent wall, Harrison stared out with the most vicious eyes, and tried his best to press his face against the glass. Looking at Ross's back and shouting.

He has just been locked in the deepest cell in the basement, which has undergone special treatment. Even if Harrison destroys the speed force and vibrates the cells and molecules in his body, he will never escape from the prison.

"I don't want to hurt your smart brain, I just want to open it, and then go in and have a look." Ross replied without turning his head, and flipped the switch, and the heavy safety door slowly fell, shutting Reverse Lightning inside alone.

14 Now the entire laboratory is respectfully open to the Conqueror. He can enter and exit every facility and review all the secrets of the loser at will, and Harrison is powerless to stop him.

Ross walked out of the basement, Joe West and his partner Eddie Swan were waiting outside nervously holding guns, Alice had already been released by Ross, and huddled together with Barry and others.

"Don't be nervous, detective." Ross passed the two of them directly, took off his mask, and showed his true face without hesitation.

"When I get what I want, I will naturally leave this world and hand over the lab and Barry to you completely, but please remember that the premise is not to hinder my emotions. When I don't want to see you, You'd better disappear from my sight obediently."

His tone was like an ultimatum, leaving no stone unturned, Joe and Eddie could only look at each other.

...we know what to do and hope you will do the same.

Joe and Eddie hesitated for a minute and finally made the right decision.

They knew that they had no way to deal with Speed. Even if they dragged in the entire Midtown defense force, it would only cause more casualties. In the end, the two dedicated police officers retreated without saying a word, without even asking for help from the police station. .

This is a very wise choice, avoiding unnecessary conflicts, so in return, Ross allowed them to take Alice away, and the captured Green Arrow and other people from Star City had no value to stay, and were driven out together , and finally only Barry et al. were left to cooperate with the experiment.

From this day on, Ross devoted himself to the new journey. In a hidden secret room, he found Gideon, Reverse Lightning's personal assistant, an artificial intelligence similar to Iron Man's intelligent butler J.A.R.V.I.S. , already has considerable intelligence, its data Curry has collected a large amount of information, and its content is as rich as the sum of books in dozens of large libraries. It records the knowledge that Ross urgently needs. Through the study of these knowledge, the future The magnificent scenery of several centuries unfolded before Ross's eyes like an exquisite scroll.

The golden light flashed fiercely in his eyes, and countless streams of information flowed down his retina like a waterfall. Ross raised his thinking speed to the highest level, staring at the future works displayed by Gideon, and roaming wantonly in the ocean of knowledge.

He held a cup of drink in his hand, and the faint water vapor slowly rose from the cup, accompanied by the warm afternoon sun, and a strong aroma lingered around him. This is the coffee made by Patty himself. The taste is a bit close to the specialty of the Kanna region of Hawaii. The coffee beans cultivated by the volcanic lava have a slightly wine aroma and a very unique flavor. The acidity is bright and refreshing, which is also just right. Ross likes this taste very much .

While scanning the documents and materials, while sipping coffee slowly, in the eyes of outsiders, Ross is not busy at work, but has a rather leisurely and comfortable feeling.

Definitely, this is not the case. His tasks are much more arduous than before. Every day, he has to read a large number of graphic reports and summarize them by the way. This is a very labor-intensive task.

Although Reverse Lightning has collected a large amount of information in the various eras he has passed through, he seldom organizes them in detail. He puts all his energy on aspects related to his own Ability and ignores other fields. This is what Ross It seems that it is huge amounts of waste.

In these materials, there are not only scientific and technological achievements passed down from generation to generation by the mainstream scientific community, but also many utopian theories that are considered unrealistic.

According to Ross's observation, what is considered to be fantasy often hides ideas beyond imagination. The same idea may be an extremely simple prototype in this era, a trendy abstract conceptual speculation rather than a mature and complete theoretical system. Authorities simply denounced it as absurd and left it in the garbage dump, but after an embarrassing period of time, someone would raise a similar point of view again, interpret it from another angle, and it might become shocking at that time. The advanced concept praised by the world is recognized by the world.

As time goes by, some ideas are finally proven to be correct, while others are eliminated for various reasons. The ones that are considered correct may not be the best solutions, and the ones that are eliminated are not necessarily meaningless. Including the tachyon in the Mercury Laboratory, many inventions were not valued by the world at the beginning. They were only used as exhibits and placed in display cabinets to show off their scientific research capabilities. Often, they could not find the correct way to use them for decades. Someone was suddenly inspired one day, and the outside world re-recognized their value.

These things are like pearls buried deep in the mud, and they can be preserved thanks to Reverse Lightning's collection addiction, which is also the strength of the speedster who can travel in time.

With this understanding, in the process of sorting out the data, Ross has gained a lot, completely exceeding the initial expectations.

The information became thinner and thinner, and time passed quickly. Before he knew it, a month passed, and Ross gradually had a general understanding of the era that the reverse lightning passed. With the help of those future papers, he seemed to have crossed the long river of time. The top scientists of all ages have secret dialogues, and he has dissected the complete context of scientific and technological development that has lasted for several centuries. The branches and trunks of large and small file sizes are all circling in his consciousness.

For these systematic knowledge, with the help of Eliza and others, Ross drew up a note. Although he wrote it in a simple way, but it involves the basic theory, there are still not many people who can really understand it, except for Ross himself. , Eliza and Bree can only understand a small part, and most of them are related to their majors. Caitlin is roughly similar. Sisko and Barry are surprisingly more comprehensive than them, but they are also very limited.

"Am I getting stupid? Maybe I'm not suitable for research." During this period, Eliza was a little depressed. She was impacted by the knowledge of the two worlds and different eras, and she was under the most pressure.

"There is no need to be too nervous. A preliminary understanding is enough. For scientists who are truly in the cutting-edge field, creativity is more important than anything else. When a new invention is just born, it has already begun to become obsolete. Only by maintaining Only with interest and self-confidence can you keep improving, and there is no need to be in awe of knowledge." Ross patted her on the head to wake her up from her disappointment.

During this month, Ross felt more and more deeply that the time limit always exists.

The 21st century is equivalent to a tomb for Reverse Lightning who was born in the future. All the people living in it are Deadman. He can't wait to escape from this dead and suffocating place in his eyes, but the future is not perfect either.

The more blazing the light, the deeper the darkness will become. The more prominent the advantages, the more obvious the defects will be. The scenery of each era is different, but there are always some similarities when you look deeper. Whether a thing is advanced or not depends not only on the technological content, but more importantly, on the crystallization of wisdom and creativity hidden behind the invention.

The development of science and technology depends on natural resources and human environment, but creativity enables human beings to be ahead of the times. Each period has different limitations. In the era of steam engines, people widely used coal mines, and in the era of internal combustion engines, they relied on oil. However, if coal is readily available, oil is extremely rare, and humans will not be obsessed with the latter. Technology such as coalification oil Nature will flourish. People will always find new ways to use the original basis, but without the brilliant idea of ​​replacing human and animal power with 613 mechanical power, all progress would be impossible to talk about, so it is difficult for people like Ross to distinguish value simply by technical content It seems a little short-sighted.

The same is true for the study of Speed ​​Force. By this time, Ross even gave up interrogating Reverse Lightning and got the idea of ​​copying Speed ​​Force from him. Although Ross has a lot of subtle tricks, if he uses a few at will, it is enough to make the stubborn stone speak and make the most stubborn people beg, but compared with real wisdom, he prefers to use his own brain to think independently, rather than simply imitate the inverse. The achievement of lightning is self-enclosed in the limitations of the predecessors.

Even if the research fails or the results are not ideal, he doesn't care, because he has obtained enough inspiration in the research process, and these inspirations will not be wasted, and will eventually turn into a solid theoretical foundation, helping him to move towards a higher goal. Level up.

At this time, Ross can finally call himself a scientist without any guilt. He is no longer a speculator who takes advantage of his advanced knowledge and opportunistically. A real titan.

Science has no distinction between noble and humble, it is not a condescending examination, and it cannot rely on pure imagination to determine objective laws without authorization. It should be discovery, exploration, and unremitting pursuit of the extraordinary factors hidden behind things in the ordinary world, day by day Accumulated understanding of the past, continuous progress on the basis of the past, and then to be ahead of the cutting edge of the times.

Feeling and analyzing in this way, one day when Ross activated the reconstructed particle accelerator to simulate the original accident process, ten kinds of wonderful powers were suddenly born in Ross body.

At that moment, the golden light in his eyes was shining brightly, and the electric light on his body swirled around like a silver snake. It gradually changed from red to golden, and soon metamorphosis back to light blue, which was so white that it was shining brightly. The color was like the clear sky after the rain. Although the color of lightning is changing, what remains unchanged is the essence of power, which seems to echo with the universe and resonate with the world.

He raised his right hand high, pointed it to the sky, looked at where his fingertips were pointing, Ross smiled slightly.

He knew that he had obtained what he wanted, and the time to stay in this world had officially entered the countdown. .
