Chapter 178 Swimming Pool Swan
Crisis averted.
Magenta was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she immediately put the cruise ship back onto the water of the harbor.
"That’s right! Good girl!"
Lucas then withdrew his hand, thoughtfully patted the dust off the girl’s shoulders, and revealed a very gentle smile, practically radiating bright and cheerful energy.
"Then I can’t help but ask, instead of staying home watching TV late at night, what made you think of using a cruise ship to smash innocents?"
Magenta was somewhat exhausted, sitting limply on the ground and crying while covering her face.
"I... I don’t know either. Ever since the accelerator explosion, a strange voice has been echoing in my mind, telling me to destroy things. I... I actually just wanted to kill my adoptive father..."
"Oh? Your adoptive father?"
"Yes... Ever since I was eight, he has frequently abused and beaten me... He even threatened that I wasn’t allowed to tell the truth, or else he would make me pay the price!"
The girl’s eyes were filled with despair.
Lucas nodded, which was about the same as the plot in his memory.
"Your Meta-human powers are quite good. Used on the right path, you might even become a superhero. As for your sadistic adoptive father..."
Lucas twitched the corner of his mouth: "Central City’s best Flash will represent the Central City Police Department tonight to personally throw your adoptive father into prison. As long as you bravely speak up, he will definitely rot in a cell for the rest of his life! Right, Barry Allen?"
Swoosh!
Barry Allen flashed into view, panting heavily.
Seeing Magenta obediently collapsed on the ground and cooperating with the investigation, Barry Allen was momentarily stunned.
Lucas drifted away leisurely.
"Bam! Guardian takes the first point. Barry Allen, you suck today!"
Cisco Ramon gloated in the communication room.
Lucas returned to S.T.A.R. Labs in an instant.
Dr. Harrison Wells turned to look at Cisco Ramon: "It seems I’m not needed here for the time being. With this guy around, plus your technical support, you are already capable of standing on your own. I should go back to accompany Jesse!"
Cisco Ramon’s face showed reluctance to part.
Caitlin Snow also gave Dr. Harrison Wells a hug as a farewell.
"You still have to come back if you have the chance, we are all your family!"
Dr. Harrison Wells nodded repeatedly.
In fact, he should have left after defeating Zoom, but he had always been uneasy about Lucas, this newcomer.
In case this guy turned into an enemy, he still had to devise strategies for the team.
As for now...
...
Dr. Harrison Wells returned to Earth-2 that very night.
Time flew like a white steed passing a crevice, and two months quickly slipped away in a Flash.
Lucas occasionally appeared in Central City to fight crime. His punches were fast and precise, hitting much harder than the Flash.
Most criminals arrested by Lucas basically lost their short-term mobility.
Even Meta-humans were no exception.
Central City citizens called him a true expert.
To fill the vacancy left by Dr. Harrison Wells, Cisco Ramon and Barry Allen used a wormhole to summon a new Harrison Wells from a parallel Earth, and the interview process went quite smoothly.
As a result, within a few days, this guy was solid-proof caught with a forged resume.
But after experiencing a few storms, because HR often provided unexpected inspiration, the Flash team ultimately pinched their noses and kept him at S.T.A.R. Labs.
At the same time, Barry Allen also had a few encounters with Savitar.
Due to Savitar’s special mechanics, Barry Allen was beaten to a pulp during several consecutive head-on clashes.
Every time Savitar finished beating him up, Lucas would step out to clean up the mess. After all, he had to give some face to the Speed Force and couldn’t interfere with the Flash’s growth line, otherwise, it would cause irreversible damage to the Speed Force itself.
Barry Allen also learned at the same time that Savitar would kill Iris West, so he trained like a madman, not only torturing himself but also dragging Wally West along. The two of them sprinted at high speeds through the streets and alleys every day.
Lucas was purely on vacation. He bought a detached small Western-style house in Central City, hugging Caitlin Snow every night to align their perspectives.
[Ding! Current World conquest progress: 56%]
One night, the system prompt popped up.
The conquest progress had already passed the halfway Mark. Next, having a child and then establishing the Justice League, this World would practically be conquered.
Caitlin Snow was undoubtedly a virtuous wife and loving mother.
At least there was no need to worry about the child being raised crookedly.
But the key problem was that Caitlin Snow found Killer Frost slightly repulsive, and Killer Frost also found Caitlin Snow’s maternal instincts repulsive.
"Killer Frost, why do you have to produce a rejection reaction every time?"
Caitlin Snow questioned in the depths of her heart.
The two of them could currently communicate telepathically without the aid of equipment.
In other words, whenever Lucas engaged in activities with one of the personalities, the other personality would experience it immersively.
This was the benefit of twin martial souls!
"Nonsense! At that time, you won’t be the only one suffering; this lady doesn’t want to have a child so early!"
Killer Frost snorted.
"Early? Those classmates of mine are already holding their second child, while my boyfriends keep dying over here. Can you consider me for once and at least let me live the life of a normal woman!"
"What can I do about cursing boyfriends?"
Killer Frost simply refused to agree.
Who told Caitlin Snow to suddenly take over the body at the critical moment every time?
You get to enjoy it while making this lady suffer a living hell.
"We need to talk!"
Caitlin Snow stood up and walked toward the bathroom.
Lucas pricked up his ears.
To others, this pair of sisters communicating might look like mental illness, but to Lucas, he never got tired of watching it every single time!
Especially when Killer Frost occasionally dropped some thunderous language.
One hour later.
Not knowing what conditions Caitlin Snow offered this time, Killer Frost agreed.
"So you two have reached an agreement?"
Lucas looked up.
Killer Frost took over the body. She extended her finger and froze the swimming pool into an icy surface.
"Of course. Now Caitlin Snow has been shoved by me into the depths of her mind and has fallen into a deep sleep. There are only the two of us left here!"
Lucas’s eyes flickered slightly.
Oh?
Killer Frost froze the clothes on her body surface, gave a gentle shatter, and directly transformed into an unclad ice and snow beauty.
"I bet with her that even your essence has no way of remaining active at low temperatures. If you can pull it off, I’ll give birth to a soccer team for you!"
A soccer team?
Good, good, good. Following right behind the Ultra-evil Mark, the Ultra-evil son of Lucas version is here!
"Then you are too naive; my activity level is extraordinary!"
Lucas accepted the challenge.
Don’t forget he also had an entry called Gene Stability!
Absolute zero my foot, get out of here!
...
Killer Frost truly lived up to being the aggregation of Caitlin Snow’s most open side. Lucas thoroughly experienced what a white swan on an icy swimming pool surface meant.
What the hell mandarin ducks playing on ice meant.
A night of fish and dragon dances...
For several consecutive days.
Until news came from Central City’s laboratory on Earth-2, Killer Frost finally let Caitlin Snow back out.
???
"Why does my date display that a full three days have passed?"
Caitlin Snow picked up her phone and was dumbfounded on the spot.
"Uh, you should ask Killer Frost about that!"
Lucas shifted all the blame onto the other party.
"Killer Frost, come out and explain!"
"Hiccup! I’m full!"
Killer Frost let out a milky hiccup.
