The Boys: Viltrumite Evolution Panel

Caitlin Snow rubbed her temples. "You two go ahead and act crazy. I still have to do cell comparisons tomorrow, so I’d better head back."

Seeing this, Barry Allen also stood up. "Alright, I’ll drop Cisco Ramon home first, and then double back to pick up Caitlin Snow."

"Alright, don’t bother."

"You drop off Cisco Ramon, and I’ll drop off Caitlin Snow. We both have super speed anyway."

Caitlin Snow nodded. "That works too... shall we go then?"

"Stay safe."

Barry Allen turned into a flash of lightning and rushed out.

Lucas scooped Caitlin Snow up in a princess carry, instantly appearing in the sky above Central City. The delicate body in his arms felt light and soft.

"Huh, it’s actually not cold?"

At such a high altitude, the wind was strong and howling in her ears. Caitlin Snow subconsciously shrugged her shoulders, but didn’t feel any cold.

"I have a Bio-field. Even if I took you to see a neutron star, you wouldn’t be vaporized by the cosmic radiation," Lucas said matter-of-factly.

"That really is..."

Caitlin Snow was left speechless.

A neutron star? How extreme could he get!

"Uh! Where do you live?" The reason Lucas stopped was because he didn’t know where Caitlin Snow lived.

"Oh, right! Sorry, see that bridge? Fly past it and then go three blocks!"

Lucas arrived at the destination in a second.

At the entrance of her apartment, he gently set her down.

Caitlin Snow was incredibly amazed. "When Barry Allen runs with someone, they can still see a blur of speed, but you arrive almost instantly, just like teleportation. Just how fast are you?"

"That depends on the situation!"

Lucas said seriously, "Sometimes, the faster the better. But other times, you have to slow down and enjoy the granularity!"

What granularity?

Caitlin Snow didn’t understand.

Lucas directly vanished. If he waited for the beauty to realize what he meant, things would get awkward.

Caitlin Snow smoothed her messy hair. Lucas’s explosive power was terrifying, but his fine control was even more impressive.

"See you tomorrow?"

Caitlin Snow muttered.

...

See him, my foot!

Lucas proved with his actions that some people completely disregard rules.

Especially after borrowing five thousand dollars from Barry Allen, he stood them up for the next day’s meeting.

S.T.A.R. Labs.

Iris West arrived early in the morning, but even after everyone else had gathered, there was no sign of Lucas.

She glanced at Barry Allen. "That friend of yours doesn’t seem to be on time for work. It’s almost ten-thirty!"

Wally West was a bit confused.

No one had even told him about Lucas.

"What friend? Did we hire someone new?"

Barry Allen rubbed his hair awkwardly. "I’ll explain to you later, Wally West!"

Then he looked at Caitlin Snow, who was tinkering with a microscope. "Caitlin, why don’t you give Lucas a call? Ask him where he is?"

Caitlin Snow put down the test tube in her hand. "Barry, did you forget? He just rented a place yesterday. He has no relatives or friends on this Earth, and he probably hasn’t even gotten a SIM card yet. Where would I call him?"

Barry Allen slapped his forehead. "Oh right, I totally forgot about that!"

Just as he finished speaking, Cisco Ramon, sporting dark circles under his eyes, pulled a new SIM card and the latest iPhone out of his pocket.

"I prepared this a while ago... think of it as paying him back for the game discs!"

Cisco Ramon wouldn’t admit that he had secretly swiped a few game discs yesterday. Since Lucas couldn’t play them all at once anyway, Cisco took them to play himself.

As an apology, a mid-range iPhone.

Plus a SIM card.

"You stole Lucas’s game discs? Bro, what games did you take?"

The first thing Barry Allen cared about was actually what games they were, rather than the theft itself!!

"A lot."

Cisco Ramon made a pinching gesture, but judging by the thickness, it was clearly more than three or four. It had to be at least seven or eight game discs.

"My man!"

Barry Allen reached out his hand.

Cisco Ramon shook it. "I get you, bro. Bros for life!"

Caitlin Snow and Iris West were completely speechless.

Whoosh!

In just less than a few seconds...

Barry Allen’s figure instantly materialized, and beside him, a tall figure also appeared.

It was indeed Lucas.

However, Lucas was clearly not in the zone. He wasn’t wearing his Viltrumite suit, but was instead casually draped in a house bathrobe with a pair of fluffy slippers on his feet, looking exceptionally contrasting.

Because the collar of the bathrobe was wide open, it revealed a large expanse of perfect chest muscles. From the middle of the robe, his exceptionally robust abs were faintly visible, full of explosive aesthetic and power.

He practically oozed raw hormone and masculinity!

Iris West was drinking coffee, but when she saw Lucas like this, her eyes instantly went wide.

She nudged Caitlin Snow with her elbow, deliberately lowering her voice. "Caitlin, did you see that? I didn’t notice yesterday, but this guy’s muscles are so insane?"

Caitlin Snow’s gaze unconsciously lingered on Lucas for a few extra moments.

In fact, last night, she had already felt the contours of Lucas’s body. Seeing it now, she was practically drooling!

"Yeah, he has a really good body!" Caitlin Snow coughed and looked away.

Lucas had zero interest in the attention of the two ladies. He let out a huge yawn and then patted Barry Allen.

His palm was so heavy it almost pushed Barry Allen into the concrete floor.

"Barry, although I don’t need much sleep, I really hate being disturbed when I’m sleeping soundly!"

Barry Allen pointed to the time on the big screen. "Lucas, it’s already ten-thirty in the morning! We are a team, and we need to have a meeting to discuss how to deal with Zoom!"

They still needed a meeting for this?

Just beat him and be done with it!

Zoom, slow-mo, whatever he is, he’s just a nobody on the street.

Lucas clearly didn’t take it to heart.

"So what if it’s ten-thirty? Nobody is paying me a salary!" Lucas rolled his eyes and sat down casually. "My original intention in becoming a superhero was just to make a few hundred million dollars a year, and then have nobody dare to boss me around!"

"I want to sleep whenever I want, occasionally watch spongebob squarepants in the office, and maybe hook up with a beauty on the spot. That’s enjoying life, kid!"

"If being a superhero means I still have to clock in and work from dawn to dusk, then what’s the point? I might as well go back and just lie flat!"

Wally West’s lip twitched as he listened.

This superhero’s wishes were truly simple and crude.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Stop right there! Say no more, Lucas! Since you are now an external consultant for our team, you at least have to listen to the general strategic meeting."

Lucas picked his ear. Fine.

Looking at the room full of people, he secretly complained in his heart.

He had to admit, the correctness in American dramas was truly pervasive. In this group of people before him, half of them were forcefully cast as minorities.

Even Iris West, who was at the core of the plot, was a black woman.

He vaguely remembered that in the original comic setting, Iris West was clearly a white, intellectual beauty. But it didn’t matter; he was just a passerby anyway and had zero interest in the character changes of this world.

He would just spend half a year here peacefully, and then head straight to the Marvel universe, where there were plenty of beauties... Scarlet Witch, Black Widow, Thor’s girlfriend’s best friend (the one from Mad Max, she is really stacked!), and Iron Man’s Korean female doctor...

By now, Barry Allen had already begun explaining the detailed plan to deal with Zoom.

"According to our current intelligence, Zoom has built a multidimensional cannon capable of absorbing Speed Force energy and converting it into destructive firepower."

"We can’t let his plan succeed, otherwise all parallel universes... will be destroyed all at once. The number of living beings there would be in the trillions at the very least."
