Chapter 109 New Ability Copied

Chapter 109 New Ability Copied

Stephen's question had a strong inclination, catching Caitlin Snow off guard when he confidently stated that Dr. Harrison Wells was the Reverse Flash. Caitlin Snow instinctively resisted and retorted.

"Why? It's impossible. How could Dr. Wells be the Reverse Flash? He has been with us," Caitlin Snow argued.

"That's right, and Dr. Wells didn't even know Barry at that time. How could he have gone to kill Barry's mother?" Cisco Raymond added.

Barry Allen, however, still had faith in Harrison Wells. He glanced at Stephen and said, "If this is some joke you're playing on me, then... it's not funny."

"I knew you would react this way, but it doesn't matter. Ever heard of the saying 'a soft knife cuts the meat'? A little mystery can be interesting," Stephen pointed disapprovingly at the video. "First of all, you have to admit that there is another speedster, right?"

Barry Allen nodded.

"But neither of these two speedsters is faster than me," Stephen continued.

"If the speed is fast enough, moving swiftly between two points can create an afterimage that makes it impossible to tell what's real and what's fake," Harrison Wells smiled and looked at Stephen. Although he didn't say anything, his meaning was clear.

"With enough speed, one can create a Duplicate disguise," Stephen said with a smile, mimicking Harrison Wells.

This is the essence of Harrison Wells, the Reverse Flash. The Speed Force energy he had accumulated was nearly depleted after he saved Barry Allen. As a result, Stephen had the audacity to reveal his true identity through the video. Luckily, Harrison Wells reacted swiftly and devised a plan to handle the situation.

"It's true that Reverse Flash knows this technique so well. He can play both sides, You can also play Reverse Flash and fight against me to save Barry Allen, all while continuing to be Dr. Harrison Wells," Stephen chuckled lightly.

"Assuming I have your speed," Harrison Wells replied with a smile.

"Do you know what your biggest mistake was? Troubling me. Because I know who you are, where you're from, and your fatal weaknesses. But don't worry, I won't use this knowledge against you, at least not for now. Let's play this game slowly. When your heart can't take it anymore, you'll kneel and beg for it to end," Stephen taunted Harrison Wells, who maintained his smile, then turned to Barry Allen. "Think about who saved you."

With that, Stephen vanished in a flash.

Silence fell upon the laboratory, leaving everyone stunned.

"Everyone, should we focus on dealing with the remaining members of the four-man group? Though there are only three left, it seems they're up to something," Cisco Raymond suggested while glancing at the computer.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The red lightning darted through the streets of Central City with incredible speed. After a while, Stephen came to a halt at a power supply station.

This was the person he least wanted to encounter.

Farooq.

During the particle accelerator explosion, Farooq and his friends had gathered there to watch the event from a distance. Farooq had even climbed onto an electrical tower. Tragically, the explosion caused him to be electrocuted and fall. His friend, attempting to save him, also suffered an electric shock and lost consciousness.

Farooq discovered his ability to absorb and release electricity. It seemed unremarkable, but when he absorbed The Flash's speed energy, it deprived The Flash of his speed. Consequently, The Flash had to endure another electric shock to reactivate his cellular speed. Additionally, Dr. Harrison Wells, aka Reverse Flash, had found a way to siphon off Speed Force energy using his genetic makeup.

Clearly, Farooq possessed a formidable ability to absorb energy of speed force.

Stephen circled around and located Farooq, who was absorbing electricity. His eyes turned white, and his hands glowed with electric lights.

"Hey, stealing electricity is illegal," Stephen exclaimed sharply.

"I need... energy," Farooq muttered slowly as he turned around and waved his hand, releasing an electric current that struck Stephen.

Huh!

Stephen instinctively stifled a chuckle and addressed Farooq. "Thank you for your ability, but now... you can meet your demise."

Whoosh!

A bolt of red lightning instantly approached Stephen, who swiftly evaded it, followed by a swing of his fist, directly obliterating the lightning.

Stephen didn't want to expend any energy that could be easily absorbed by his opponent, so this attack was purely based on raw power, multiplied fiftyfold.

Boom!

With a powerful punch, Farooq's head instantaneously exploded and his lifeless body collapsed to the ground.

Observing the headless corpse sprawled on the ground, Stephen's hand burst into flames as he unleashed a blast.

The intense heat swiftly consumed Farooq's remains until the flames extinguished, leaving behind only a layer of ashes scattered on the ground. The wind swiftly carried them away, dissipating into the air.

The reason for killing Farooq and destroying his corpse was simple: to prevent Reverse Flash from absorbing Barry Allen's speed force energy. By copying this ability, Stephen could suppress the strength of both The Flash and Reverse Flash and absorb their speed force energy.

The Flash attempting to manipulate time and disrupt the timeline? Impossible!

Reverse Flash gathering enough speed force energy to return home? Not happening!

They were like lambs to the slaughter.

"No wonder Farooq hasn't shown himself in so long since acquiring his ability. He was just an ordinary person who was resurrected from the dead. His energy needs were immense, so he spent his time absorbing energy. Luckily, I'm different. Just a little hunger is enough for me if I eat more," Stephen remarked, feeling the effects of his new ability, shaking his head slightly.

The red lightning illuminated the surroundings as Stephen vanished.

Returning to his villa, Stephen asked Laurie to prepare something to eat, and the hunger dissipated as quickly as the wind blew.

"What's the matter with you?" Laurie inquired when she noticed Stephen had finished eating.

Stephen wiped the corners of his mouth, leaned back in his chair, and smiled at Laurie. "Is this the first time you've spoken to me out of your own volition recently?"

Laurie remained silent once again.

During this period of time, Laurie either cooked and cleaned or assisted Stephen in his quest to research on superpowers. She even fulfilled his intimate desires of being his pillow without complaint. Whatever Stephen wanted, she would comply, but she never initiated conversation.
