I became light in American comics

"Sorry, is my stuff not ready yet?" he asked, frowning.

The shop assistant looked at him in surprise, then glanced at the time.

"Sir, while we're serving fast food, it's not 'fast' to that extent. Only thirty seconds have passed."

"Only thirty seconds?"

Barry scratched his head.

"I feel like it's been a long time already. Anyway, please urge them on for me, hurry up and get it done."

He returned to his chair, but seemed restless, as if there were thorns in it. He shifted his weight from one leg to the other, his knuckles tapping rapidly and unconsciously on the table.

A plate was placed in front of him.

Do you mind if I sit here?

Barry looked up, his face lighting up with delight.

"Agent Williams?"

"it's me."

Wearing the "Agent Williams" vest, Shen You waved and smiled slightly at him.

"I just happened to be passing by in the vicinity on some errands. It's been a while since I've seen you."

Chapter 119 Is this called "a little different"?

"So, you're completely healed?"

Shen You looked at Barry beside him. Even as the two walked out of the restaurant side by side, Barry was still holding a hamburger in one hand and a hot dog in the other, stuffing the food into his mouth.

“Almost,” Barry swallowed the large mouthful of food. “Actually, I’ve never felt this good. How should I put it? I know a lot of people might think being struck by lightning is terrible, that it will probably leave some kind of aftereffects.”

But I really didn't feel anything was wrong; in fact, I felt a sense of renewal.

He then took another big bite of the hot dog.

"Maybe he really does know."

Shen You continued scanning Barry as he spoke. Now he was certain that the bracelet's records were indeed correct; Barry was the source of that spacetime energy reaction.

Barry is now practically a walking Speed ​​Force reactor, with a Speed ​​Force energy concentration in his body that is even higher than the average intensity detected by the detectors in the Speed ​​Force space.

"Didn't you feel anything was wrong after you woke up?" Shen You asked.

“No. Oh, maybe it’s because I’m always hungry and always need to eat a lot.” Barry thought to himself as he ate. “Oh, and I feel like people have slowed down these past few days.”

Everyone procrastinates on everything. For example, if you go to a shop and order breakfast, by the time they bring it to you, it's already lunch.

Oh, and my computer. It's as slow as a snail, and IT insists it's perfectly fine. I mean, can't anyone else see that it takes forever to even boot up?

Barry was still grumbling incessantly. Shen You roughly understood that the Speed ​​Force had begun to affect Barry's body, but he himself was not fully aware of it, much less aware of his own superpower.

Perhaps they haven't awakened yet?

Perhaps something will trigger his instincts, like turning on the Speed ​​Force, making him realize what he's capable of now.

boom.

Gunshots.

Shen You immediately became alert. His quantum brain worked at lightning speed, and the instinctive activation made everything in his eyes seem to slow down. The endless stream of vehicles on the road and the bustling crowds on the sidewalk all slowed down instantly.

He turned his head and immediately saw the bullet spinning in mid-air. The air that was torn apart seemed to form a spiral vortex, following behind the bullet, as if it were struggling to push through the thick air.

A sniper.

but why?

First of all, it couldn't be a sniper targeting him, since he was using a completely fictitious alias and no one would be interested in him. Okay, General Ryan might want to skin him alive, though. But a sniper was clearly an overreaction, and Shen You quickly confirmed the sniper target by visually estimating the bullet trajectory.

Someone wants to kill Barry Allen.

Just as I was about to continue looking along the trajectory, I suddenly heard Barry speak beside me.

"Oh my god, why has everyone slowed down so much?!"

Shen You turned around and saw Barry staring blankly, looking around in astonishment at the scene of "time frozen.AVI" all over the street.

Clearly, his Speed ​​Force was activated.

Was it because he was sniped? Or was it some kind of instinct for danger within him?

Shen You was puzzled, but at the same time he quickly recorded the data of the speed force radiated in that instant.

The Flash is the source of the Speed ​​Force, and every drop of data obtained from him is invaluable, serving as the key to in-depth analysis of the spacetime knowledge of the entire DC multiverse system.

"Huh? You can move too?" Barry quickly noticed that his companions seemed unaffected by the strange effect.

“Yes. I only suspected it before, but now I’m sure.” Shen You nodded and said to him through telepathy, “That lightning bolt gave you superpowers, and that’s your ability.”

The Speed ​​Force grants Barry various anti-physics properties that make him appear normal even in still time, allowing him to speak at supersonic speeds. Shen You, on the other hand, communicates with him telepathically.

"Superpowers!?" Barry's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Yes, it seems your main ability is super speed, but it's achieved through some kind of special energy field. You just lacked a trigger before, and now that someone is targeting you, it might have triggered your superpower instincts."

“Wait, wait,” Barry rubbed his temples, “Someone’s sniping at me? What the hell!?”

Only then did he notice the warhead suspended in mid-air, like a snail struggling to climb a vine, slowly squeezing towards him inch by inch in this frozen space of time.

"My God, was that a sniper bullet? Someone shot at me? But why would someone shoot at me?"

Barry panicked instantly.

"Don't be nervous." Shen You shrugged. "At the speed at which this thing flies, you can sit down and finish what you have in your hand. You can go back to the bathroom, wash your hands, and come back before it even reaches you. What's there to be afraid of?"

"Oh right!" Barry exclaimed in surprise. "Does that mean I won't be afraid of bullets anymore?"

Shen You laughed. Bullets are nothing; from now on, you'll be one of the most overpowered characters in the entire universe, the restart button for the multiverse.

"Wait a minute, does that mean you have superpowers too?" Barry exclaimed in surprise. "You can be as fast as me? Wait, your organization specializes in dealing with superpowers. You're going to arrest me? Are you going to use me for research?"

"Don't be nervous, Barry, I won't arrest you. Actually, I'm not... well, let's talk about that later," Shen You said. "Compared to that, aren't you more concerned about who's trying to assassinate you right now?"

“Of course I want to. But how can I… Oh right,” Barry slapped his forehead, “I can follow the trajectory of the bullet to find him. Anyway, that gunman doesn’t seem like he could go anywhere else.”

"You've already gotten the hang of it," Shen You said with a smile.

Therefore, the situation from the perspective of the Death Shooter is quite bizarre.

He found his position, set up his gun, and locked onto the target. Perfect angle, absolute certainty, and the shot was fired.

Then, even before the spent cartridge case could hit the ground, the target in the scope disappeared along with the two men.

Lao Dun was stunned for a moment, dumbfounded for two seconds.

What about people?

The next moment, a heavy impact sounded from behind.

Lawton was startled and quickly and alertly turned around. He saw that the young man, who had been in his scope at the same instant, had crashed headfirst into a door on the rooftop behind him, denting the metal door, and then fell heavily to the ground, trailing blue lightning around him.

“My nose,” Barry groaned, covering his nose.

Lawton stared wide-eyed at the figure that appeared like a ghost, crashing into the wall and falling to the ground, feigning injury.

This place must be at least a kilometer or two away from where he was just aiming, right? And it just appeared like that in an instant?

That damn monkey lied to me!

You call this person "a little different"?

Chapter 120 Faster Than a Bullet

Lawton was shocked.

Many people assume that Deadshot's greatest strength lies in his marksmanship. That's certainly true, but Lawton, as a top assassin, knows it's more than that.

For a truly top-tier assassin, intelligence is even more important.

You need to clearly understand what you are facing, who you are killing, the time, the place, and what kind of situation you might encounter.

As the world's top marksman, Lawton always does his homework before each operation. He thoroughly investigates the background of each of his targets, and if he wanted to, even the world's top political figures would be nothing more than a shot away.

But Barry Allen?

All the information indicated that he was just an ordinary investigator at the Midtown Police Department, with nothing special about him.

That's how it should be.

Shocked as he was, Lawton's professional instincts kicked in. The instant he saw Barry flash behind him, he immediately dropped his sniper rifle, raised his arm, and locked onto the target with the specially designed barrel on the back of his hand.

A burst of fire erupted!

Barry was still lying on the ground, clutching his nose, which he had accidentally bumped. His pupils contracted, and the entire space seemed to be filtered through an eerie lens in his vision. Streaks of lightning ripped across the sky, and the surrounding scenery became illusory.

Once again, the bullet froze in mid-air.

He could even see the Deadshot's barrel slowly rise due to recoil, with flashes of light and a ring of smoke slowly exploding from the muzzle, the propulsion force pushing the modified bullets out of the chamber with tremendous difficulty.

"You run too fast."

Shen You appeared silently behind him and said, "Many physical laws and common sense habits are different when you are speeding. You have to learn to control it."

In fact, Shen You has already begun to realize that it is already a bit difficult for him to keep up with Barry's speed in his human form—and this is only the first time Barry has entered high speed mode, he will definitely be faster in the future.

Let's quickly record some data.

"I noticed. I hope my nose is okay."

Barry rubbed his nose and slowly stood up. Streaks of lightning flashed before his eyes, making the deadly shot, still in its firing position, and the slowly advancing bullets look somewhat comical.

"So who exactly is this guy? What's wrong with him?" Barry scratched his head.

"Deadshot, the world's best gunman."

Shen You slowly circled half a circle around Deadshot, who was still in a firing position, and examined his signature modified barrel and sight.

"It seems so."

Barry was taken aback: "How did I get involved with such a dangerous person?"
