Chapter 577 43. Ha, you didn’t expect it, Brother Mason, this is my way of escaping
The arrival of Hermes, the God of Speed, eliminated the need for Mason to come on as a substitute, and the subsequent scene of eight speedsters starting to run at the same time was quite terrifying.
In particular, the speed force resonance they generate when running is expressed differently in the material world. The colors and shapes are all different, which is really dazzling. But in fact, this is not the deliberate "showing off skills" of the speedsters, but everyone. The different extreme running speeds caused errors in the appearance of the Speed Force.
As a friend of Flash and a researcher who has experienced the energy of the Speed Force many times, Mason has long been accustomed to this phenomenon. When he puts on the Speed Force armor, he can also show different luster according to different speeds.
However, the crowd of onlookers didn't quite understand this at this time, and some people were discussing in the communication which of the eight speedsters had the most beautiful light.
Mason had to explain the principle of this phenomenon to the "curious babies" during the charging stage of the Speed Force Cannon. After all, being a good teacher is the common fun and hobby of every adult man.
This behavior also has a more popular name called "pretending".
"Different speed levels cause the Speed Force to undergo a 'blue shift' phenomenon in the material world."
The captain held a special instrument in his hand to monitor the resonance level of the Speed Force energy, and casually explained:
"When the speedster is running at a constant speed, this power will appear in the most common red color, just like when Little Flash first debuted, he always flashed red light across the city, and when he accelerates, the red color will shift to yellow to represent a rapid increase in speed.
Ordinary speedsters will form a brilliant yellow streamer when running at maximum speed, but the speed difference between the two is not exaggerated for speedsters.
But after breaking through the super-light speed and entering another level, it will show a more obvious blue shift. At this time, the speedsters will be surrounded by blue broken light when running, which means that they have exceeded the ability of ordinary speedsters. The ultimate speed achieved.
For example, Barry is running now and Hermes, the god of speed, comes to support us. ”
"Well, that sounds interesting."
Sister Ka stood on a high place and looked at the light beams gathered by the speedsters below as they accelerated. She asked curiously:
"So the blue features of the Savitar we killed last time mean that he is faster than Flash? And why is the symbol of Hermes' speed force not the light of lightning but a wandering snake?" < br>
"Savitana is a special case."
Mason looked at the rising energy reading in his hand and explained:
"Acquiring the Speed Force through different methods will also cause different changes in the light of non-genuine speedsters, just like the reverse speed force of the reverse lightning will always appear yellow, and when I use the speed force armor, I have to draw the speed force from the outside, so It will show a weird blue color, but this is beyond the scope of discussion
As for the symbol of Hermes’ Speed Force
After all, he is a serious god of speed, and he always creates cool scenes for himself that can make mortals worship him. His two snakes are actually the energy of the Speed Force that was 'shaped' with superb shaping skills. of.
This must have taken a long time of practice.
However, this thing only looks powerful and has no effect on improving speed. However, being able to control the speed force to such a fine level, the destructive power he causes when running is definitely stronger than other speedsters. ”
"These Speed Force secrets are so interesting! My little sweetheart is so powerful, but why did Wally turn gray?"
The cute little Harley, holding a telescope and looking here, exclaimed:
"The Speed Force in his body is turning into white light. Does this mean he is a racist bastard?"
"That means that Wally's speed has been equal to or even exceeded the flow of time. As long as he is willing, he can easily travel to any point in time he wants to reach.
He is indeed the fastest man in the universe. ”
Mason sighed:
"But as far as I know, this doesn't seem to be Wally's limit yet. But it's the limit that the Speed Force cannon's special runway can withstand, Wally!
Keep this speed and don't speed up any more. If you go any faster, my equipment will smoke.
Everyone, the energy resonance is about to reach perfect coordination. The Speed Force extraction will start in half a minute. You need to maintain the current speed and run for at least ten minutes to complete the charging of the Speed Force cannon. ”
"Received!"
Seven voices rang out in unison, but Reverse Lightning, who was wearing a Speed Force armor and running at a constant speed with the Speed Force on the main runway, did not respond.
This is normal.
This guy was forced to participate in this incident, and his runway is longer and larger than that of other speedsters, which means that the pressure that Reverse Flash has to endure when running is stronger than that of other speedsters.
As Mason counted down, the energy storage devices in front of the eight runways were smoothly activated, like hamster cage generators.
The resonance energy of the Speed Force caused by the speedsters when they ran began to be absorbed. The energy of different colors was absorbed in the form of current coverage, and the eight lights on the main frame of the entire Speed Force cannon also began to strobe.
"Maintain this speed, very good, the energy transfer is very smooth."
Engineer Mason, who was manually operating under the Speed Force cannon instrument, shouted:
"In the first stage, the energy storage target is 5%! The estimated completion time is 30 seconds."
"Everyone retreat to a safe area immediately!"
Mason also issued instructions in the communication:
"The current resonance level of the Speed Force will soon cause time chaos in this area. It will be very troublesome to get involved. If you don't plan to see your childhood selves or go and lay flowers on your tombstone, don't do it before it's over. Approach rashly.”
Sister Ka and the Justice Lords retreated from Shan Ruliu to the edge of the ruins of the city. Mason himself also put on the Speed Force armor to avoid being involved in the turbulence of time.
"The first phase of energy storage is over! The current storage capacity is 7%, which is faster than expected! Very good, everyone, now enter the second phase, the storage target is 30%!
Estimated completion time is three minutes! ”
Engineer Mason's shout rang out again, everything went incredibly smoothly.
This always makes the captain feel a little uneasy. Judging from his experience in everything he has participated in before, if there is no accident, then there should be an accident soon.
"Hey, Mason."
Only ten seconds after the "disaster prediction" mentality emerged, Reverse Flash, who had been silent today, suddenly took the initiative to speak, which made Mason's heart skip a beat, and at the same time, the stone hanging in his heart quietly fell to the ground.
Look, a surprise is coming.
"There's something wrong with my runway!"
Reverse Lightning said coldly:
"Although I haven't run on other tracks, I guess the energy extraction on their side is not as strong as mine?
According to the timetable you set and the current rate at which the Speed Force is being extracted from me, there is a half chance that I will die of exhaustion when the cannon is fully charged! ”
"No, it won't."
Mason responded calmly:
"The Speed Force armor on your body will bear part of the pressure for you. As long as you don't do anything wrong, you will lose strength but not die.
This has been carefully calculated. You have to believe that the numbers will not lie. If you need me, I can show you the complete calculation process. You can probably understand it with your wisdom.
Don't do anything stupid, Reverse Flash!
I will let you go when this is over. You should know that I am a well-known person and I always do what I say. ”
"Do you think I would choose to believe your bullshit promises in this situation?"
Reverse Flash sneered.
He maintained his running movement, but said to Mason eloquently:
"Eight runways, eight speedsters, the last one was 'borrowed' by you from the gods. I used to wonder why you had to force me to join them, but now I know the reason.
My life is not dependent on your mercy, Mr. Mason, it is you who need me now!
Oops, it seems we have entered a very embarrassing situation. This thing has started and started charging, and it can't stop, right?
You said, if I stop running now"
"Don't do anything stupid!"
Mason's tone cooled down and he said to Reverse Flash:
"You are making fun of your own life now. I really don't recommend this behavior."
"Really?"
Reverse Lightning snorted and said in a deep voice while reducing his speed:
"I don't believe it!"
"Ka"
The moment the speed of the main runway slowed down, a light on the main body of the Speed Force cannon turned into a flashing red, and engineer Mason immediately exclaimed:
"The energy storage speed of the main runway has decreased and is close to interruption! We are about to stall. Main body, what are you doing? Let him run quickly. Without the support of the main runway, the energy storage will not be completed at the scheduled time. This cannon will be charged due to It can be destroyed by overheating for too long. ”
"Ha, I knew it."
Reverse Flash reduced his speed from the speed of light to jogging in a few seconds. He seemed to have taken back the initiative and shouted to Mason:
"You put me at the core of this system just to die in place of your heroic friends! What a cold-hearted bastard, but do you really think I will just accept my fate?
But you shouldn't have put me in such an important position!
I don't know how long it would take you to recreate a Speed Force cannon, but I'm guessing you don't have enough time to make another attempt on this scale.
Therefore, I have the final say on the current situation.
Unlock the proton bomb, now! ”
"Countdown to explosion starts! 30, 29"
Mason's response to this was quite direct. He activated the proton bomb on Reverse Flash's wrist, and the cold countdown echoed in the Speed Force suit that bound Reverse Flash.
"I say it one last time, run!"
The captain warned in a very serious tone:
"Don't risk your life at this time. I have a backup plan, but you don't! You're doing it to yourself."
"You're the one who's still humiliating yourself, right?"
Reverse Flash stood with his hands on his hips on the main runway that had come to a complete stop. He stared at the other seven speedsters with a playful look like watching a hamster running, completely ignoring the countdown that kept counting down.
He shouted:
"Haven't you seen the current situation clearly? Little Mason, I have already said that the initiative is in my hands, just like my legs are in my body.
I can run when I want and stop when I want.
This armor of yours can only make me run in a predetermined direction, but what can you do to me if I don't run?
Oh, I really didn’t expect that the most powerful weapon I, a speedster, could use at this moment was actually to stop running to protest Mason’s tyranny. This change in the world is really fucking awesome.
What you said before is right!
We speedsters have been running for too long, and perhaps stopping occasionally would be more beneficial to our tired legs. ”
"20, 19, 18"
The cold countdown tone continues.
Mason's silence made Reverse-Flash a little nervous, but he was ready to fight now and there was no turning back. He shouted:
"Come on, blow me up! After you blow me up, no one will be able to take on the important tasks you expect at this important moment. Such a classic coward game, I often played it when I was a kid!
Ha, I have never lost in this kind of game. I am a cold-blooded villain.
I don't believe you dare to blow me up right now! ”
"Do you think I wear this armor just to look good?"
Mason finally responded.
His response was to activate his armor and rush into the main runway, restarting the runway as he ran, forcing the reverse flash on the runway to also start running.
The light representing the energy storage turned back to flashing green, but the speed could not be increased so that the current energy storage progress was seriously behind.
"So your solution is to replace me yourself? Hahaha, you have no chance, idiot. Your persistence in your great goal exposes your weakness."
Reverse Flash felt really confident now.
Although the countdown had reached a dangerous 10 seconds, he was determined and began to run in the opposite direction on the track, forcing Mason, who was not as fast as him at all, to slow down.
"Disarm the bomb immediately!"
Reverse Flash scolded me in a confident tone:
"Your speed is stolen. If you are not a speedster, you can't even hope to complete such a run. If you run here for two minutes, your life will be drained.
It's like the idiot Barry we saw before, boiling himself down to a skeleton for a doomed world.
What a stupid sacrifice that was, he could have escaped. ”
"Countdown 5, 4, 3"
"Stop it quickly!!! Otherwise we will die together!"
Reverse Flash's last scolding was already filled with panic.
But in the next moment, the countdown stopped steadily at the number 2, which made Reverse-Flash, whose heart was in his throat, finally let out a sigh of relief, and then he started to look up to the sky and laugh wildly.
In the end, he won this coward's game, hahaha, and idiot Mason lost.
"Ka"
The Speed Force armor restraining Reverse Flash bounced away, allowing the guy to walk out of his cage in a swagger, and handed his hands to Mason to signal him to quickly open the proton bomb.
"Let me tell you a secret, Reverse-Flash."
Mason also popped out of the suit and seemed to really want to help Reverse Flash disarm the bomb.
But when his fingers touched Reverse Flash's wrist, the captain suddenly raised his head and looked at the triumphant villain in front of him with a deadly look.
He said softly:
"I don't give a damn whether you die or not! I really didn't threaten you just now. I really hope you don't do anything stupid. I think you can become one of us.
I know that in some time and space you occasionally do good things, and I don’t think you are so hopeless.
But it turns out that some birds end up in cages because their every feather shines with intolerable stupidity.
Please step out of the armor just because you don’t want it to get dirty. In addition to saving a dry cleaning fee, after all, you also have to consider the feelings of the next user.
Now, farewell, idiot. ”
"Countdown to restart, 1"
"Boom"
As Reverse Flash watched in disbelief and with wide eyes, a ball of purple fire exploded on his wrist. The terrifying destructive energy destroyed his hands in a thousandth of a second and spread along. Bones and flesh all the way up.
What was reflected under the red eye patch of Reverse Flash's helmet was the expressionless indifference and sarcasm on Mason Cooper's face outside the explosion, and the arrival of death was so decisive that he could not even utter a word of begging for mercy.
"No!!!"
It seems to be a roar that remains in the waves of time.
But the fact is that in the precise directional blasting, the villain who can travel through time can't even transfer and turns into a blackened ashes.
Dark scorched bones were scattered on the ground, and there were still red Speed Force remnants in the fragile skull eye sockets. But in the next moment, they were crushed by Mason, who put on the Speed Force armor again.
This means that Reverse-Flash is the poor loser in this coward's game, because the person he chooses to play the game really doesn't care about his life.
The chicken game or extreme pressure will always be won by those who don't care about winning or losing.
"You asked for it, man."
Mason stepped forward and folded up the Speed Force Cage Armor that restrained Reverse Flash into its original mechanical box and stuck it on his gauntlet. He turned around and rushed onto the main runway to start accelerating.
"The energy storage progress has fallen far behind. You must keep accelerating, subject."
Engineer Mason shouted:
"But you can't do that. Reverse Flash's statement is correct. You are not a speedster. This kind of absorption will make you exhausted and dead in two minutes.
Get back!
Let me tell you quietly, when I made this thing, I imitated Batman's thinking and kept a hand that would not let you die. Now you can start Plan B to increase the energy extraction of the other seven runways, so that other speedsters can bear this pressure. ”
"That way they won't be able to recover when the impact comes. I also need them to run the Speed Force matrix in times of disaster. That's their real job, and it's up to me."
Mason's main theory:
"Be prepared to increase the energy extraction of the main runway. Don't be afraid, engineer, I really have a backup plan."
Ps:
Thanks to Brother "Huo Zheng is good" for his silver alliance, my heart is beating wildly. The 20 exclusive chapters will be updated on a certain day during the May Day holiday. I have to save manuscripts quickly.
I saw my brother said that there is no book club group, it’s not that there is no book club group, it turns out that one was blown up by the mole
The new group number is 215681356. Brothers are welcome to come and guide the work. I love you. (End of chapter)
