As a force unique to the DC world, the speed force is one of the most basic components of the entire universe.

In the comic universe, the abilities granted by the speed force are also very diverse, but unfortunately most of them are not shown in this world, and Ethan doesn't know if Barry Allen in this world can reach the level in the 'comic universe' and thoroughly develop the various abilities of the speed force.

Because this involves a basic setting difference between the comic universe and the TV universe.

In the comic universe, the speed force represents the speed of light in this universe, and the speeders connect the speed force to run to the speed of light or close to the speed of light, so that they can be regarded as entering the speed force mode, and then show various powerful abilities: for example, a punch is comparable to being hit head-on by a white dwarf, and a punch will knock the opponent to the future decades or even hundreds of years later, etc.

And when there is no 'speed force mode turned on', although the speeders can also run quickly, the combat effectiveness shown is obviously several notches lower, and they even sprint in front of the opponent and punch it, which is similar to the effect of waving their fists on the spot as usual.

In addition, in the comic universe, if the connection of the speed force is severed, then only Barry Allen can run back into the speed force mode state with his own power.

In other words, in the comic universe, the speed of light or a state close to the speed of light is called the speed of the gods.

But in the TV universe, although Barry's speed does not reach the speed of light, and even the distance is close, Barry, who runs several times the speed of sound, has turned on the speed force mode.

However, Barry in the TV universe did not show the various anti-heaven abilities in the comic universe after turning on the speed force mode, but it was similar to the speeders in the comic universe who did not turn on the speed force, so Ethan was not sure about the specific situation of the basic setting of this universe, which made Ethan feel that his head hurt......

In addition, although Barry has ultra-fast reaction and perception abilities, these abilities are not activated anytime and anywhere, which can be known from some details that Barry has just woken up at the beginning, he usually remains in an 'ordinary state', and he needs to take the initiative to 'activate' to enter the high-speed state.

This also seems to explain why Barry is always beaten up by a group of 'ordinary people', because in his normal state, his reaction is not much faster than normal people, and he is beaten by the other party before he has time to enter the 'high-speed' state in a panic.

This seems to have changed later, and after a while, Barry was more in a high-speed state, just suppressing his reaction and thinking speed in order to live a normal life.

After thinking about it so much, Ethan looked at Thea in front of him again and gave his guess.

"Probably...... Can't you?"

"Why? Doesn't the Speed Force make me faster? Since it's faster, I can do more Meteor Punches in less time. ”

"Because I don't know if you can mobilize another kind of energy when you use the speed force to enter that high-speed state. ”

"Forehead ......"

Thea has been learning from Ethan for nearly two years, and the control of energy is the key content to learn, she is no longer a rookie who doesn't know anything, she knows how difficult it is to mobilize energy.

With the guidance of a god, she has only touched the threshold now, and Thea has experienced first-hand how difficult it is to control energy.

It's hard to just mobilize one type of energy, and it might be faster to mobilize two energies of completely different natures at the same time at the same time, and maybe it's faster to take a knife to your neck.

"Then how about directly condensing the speed force into a meteor and sending it out?"

Ethan thought of Barry Allen's only attack in a long time: sprinting and speeding up and then gathering lightning together and throwing it at the enemy, which seemed to prove that the speed force could be condensed to attack.

"If you have the chance, you can try. ”

But a meteor condensed by a ball of lightning? Is this still the Pegasus Meteor Fist? Thea doesn't want to fight Thor, right?

Of course, Thea couldn't hear the complaint in Ethan's heart, and she was now eager to see the speed force as soon as possible.

However, for the next period of time, Ethan did not take Thea to the cutting-edge laboratory, but walked around Midtown by himself, until Thea thought that Ethan had changed his mind, and then went to the cutting-edge laboratory again.

Caitlin was surprised by Ethan's arrival, Dr. Snow didn't seem to expect Ethan to come again, she thought that after that visit, the two investors, Tony and Ethan, did not show up for a while because they were no longer interested in cutting-edge laboratories.

Even she thought that these people had already left Midtown, and she didn't care where they went, it had nothing to do with her anyway.

Unexpectedly, after a while, this young man named Ethan actually came again, and without saying hello in advance, he came with a surprise attack.

"Hello. ”

"Uh...... Hello. ”

Caitlyn smiled awkwardly, then kept glancing at the Latino man next to her.

It's a pity that this companion of hers didn't understand what she meant at all, and also stood there with an embarrassed face, and then greeted Ethan awkwardly.

"This is my colleague Sisko Raymond, and after the particle accelerator accident, Sisko and I were the only ones left. ”

Ethan knows that this is the kind of Sisko Raymond who can casually tinker with all kinds of black technology products, and in the near future, he will awaken a very powerful ability, but this guy is not at all concerned about developing his own ability, and that ability is a little buried in his hands.

Speaking of special abilities, Ethan also noticed that Caitlyn's body also has a vague energy, and unlike the energy in Sisko's body that is still slowly transforming him, Caitlyn herself has completed the transformation, and the energy in her body has been in a state of sleep.

"Frost Killer...... And the shock wave?"

Ethan looked left and right at the two people, who were still a little young, not because of their age, but because of their lives.

She wasn't very old in the first place, and she was engaged in more 'homely' research, so that Caitlyn and Sisko were not good at contacting people.

That's why Caitlyn was panicked when she received Ethan and the others, and Sisko didn't show up at all.

If Ethan hadn't come running out of nowhere, maybe he wouldn't have seen these two - it must have been Dr. Harrison-Wells who entertained him.

"Don't be nervous, I'll just take a look. ”

There are only two people in the cutting-edge laboratory now, and Dr. Harrison Wells is not here all the time, only the two in front of him are here every day.

Of course, the reason why the two of them are here, in addition to the fact that there is no place to go, the most important reason is that there is another special guest living in the cutting-edge laboratory.

"Who's that?"

The last time I was taken around by Dr. Wells, I didn't have a chance to go inside, so I didn't have a chance to see Barry Allen who was in a coma.

But this time it was different, he came over suddenly, although Caitlin rushed outside in time to block Ethan, but she didn't dare to stop the investor, so when Ethan went straight inside, and found the medical room all the way, Caitlin didn't know what to do.

"That's the patient who was in a coma when the particle accelerator exploded. ”

Barry...... Alan?"

Sisko was still honestly explaining the situation to Ethan, and when he came back to his senses, he found that Ethan had walked over, and that the beautiful girl had called out the name of the 'patient'.

"You know him?"

"I've seen it once before. ”

Although Sisko is not good at communicating with people, he can also see that the scene is a little bad now: the explosion of his own laboratory has caused Barry to fall into a coma, and the investor who suddenly came on to run happens to know Barry...... Is the cutting-edge lab finally announcing its closure?

"How's he doing?"

Sisko didn't dare to talk nonsense, so he looked at Caitlyn beside him with very innocent eyes, not to mention that this was her field of expertise.

Caitlin had no choice but to explain Barry's situation to 'Uncle Gold'.

Overall, Barry is doing well, even better than a lot of normal people, the only problem is that he is in a coma all the time.

Ethan could feel that it was not far from the time when Barry woke up, his body had completed the most basic transformation, and he had initially adapted to the speed force, so it could be said that he could open his eyes at any time.

It's best that way, Ethan doesn't have to wait too long.

Just as he was considering whether to push a little harder to see if he could wake Barry up, he noticed that Barry's eyelids seemed to move slightly.

"Ahem, his eyelids seem to move. ”

The two next to them stood there looking like 'good babies', and then stared at themselves pitifully, and Ethan had to give a special reminder before Catelyn noticed that Barry seemed to be waking up.

A second later, Caitlin, who had looked like a quail before, suddenly changed into a person, and began to examine Barry very neatly, and while she was busy, Barry in the hospital bed had already opened his eyes.

"Where am I?"

Barry Allen sat up with a confused expression, and then looked at the ...... beside him, whom he didn't know at all Oh, Thea, he knew, he had met in Star City before, but he didn't have a good relationship.

"Miss Quinn, why are you here?"

Turning his head to look to the side, it was Sisko who explained the current situation a little, which allowed Barry to grasp the point a little.

"How long have I been in a coma?"

"Nine months. ”

When there was chaos in the hospital room, Harrison Wells arrived just in time, he heard that Ethan was suddenly coming, but he didn't expect Barry to wake up at this time.

At this time, he couldn't care about Ethan, and hurriedly greeted Barry.

"Welcome back, Mr. Allen. ”
