"Do you feel anything?" Caitlin asked Barry Allen, who seemed unharmed, expectantly.
Barry Allen's hand twitched rapidly for a few seconds, then stopped.
"It didn't work!"
Everyone was subsequently discouraged.
Barry Allen's speed had not recovered, and Farooq Gibran could rush in and kill everyone at any time.
The situation was critical!
For a moment, everyone's hearts were covered with a layer of gloom, except for—Samuel.
He didn't feel depressed or in danger at all; on the contrary, he even felt a little like laughing.
Especially when he saw Dr. Harrison Wells looking equally serious, he couldn't help but be curious about how he managed to act so naturally without breaking character?
"We must find a way to leave here." Dr. Harrison Wells said in a deep voice, his gaze inadvertently glancing at Samuel.
Samuel was unmoved. He knew that Dr. Harrison Wells meant that if Barry Allen was really in danger, he hoped he could take action.
He glanced at Dr. Harrison Wells and shook his head slightly: "We just got rid of him on floor D. We definitely can't get to the main entrance from here."
"What about the garage? The mobile lab truck. As long as we can get to the garage, we can leave here." Cisco suggested.
Dr. Harrison Wells said, "We can try."
"Oh my God, Barry, look, your cells are repairing rapidly!" Caitlin didn't know when she sat by the computer and started studying Barry's condition.
Barry excitedly tried again, then said disappointedly, "No, I still haven't found my speed."
"It must be a psychological problem, not a physical one."
"You have pitching amnesia."
"What's that?"
"You know, when a second baseman suddenly can't throw to first base, or a golfer wants to gently putt the ball, they feel embarrassed and frustrated, and then the pitching amnesia gets worse, and then it becomes a mess, and then they feel even more like a failure."
Cisco said a lot excitedly, and then—Barry said with a speechless expression, "What you're saying is no help at all!"
"Alright, let's go to the garage first and try to leave here." Samuel urged.
One of the reasons he didn't spend time here every day like Caitlin and Cisco helping Barry Allen fight metahumans was that he couldn't stand the verbal attacks that might appear at any time.
Barry, you are Flash, not Mouth Cannon Man.
When you encounter an opponent, your first action should be to take down the opponent, and then use verbal attacks to appeal to their emotions and reason, to see if you can persuade them.
Instead of using verbal attacks first, then giving the opponent a chance to cause more damage, and then regretting it.
On this point, the newly debuted Outsider Squad did particularly well. Facing Chrono King, they didn't even show their faces, let alone use verbal attacks.
Brie Larvan controlled robotic bees to fly directly into the police station and use tranquilizers to knock out the unsuspecting Chrono King. Immediately after, Lisa Snart and Betty Sans Souci went in and arrested him. There was not a single word of nonsense in the entire process. That was efficient!
Other people's opponents are villains who die from talking too much, while Flash is the opposite, he is a hero who is defeated by talking too much!
Hmm, uncomfortable without a verbal attack!
Samuel praised the Outsider Squad in his heart and complained about Flash while following the crowd to the garage.
There were many cars in the garage, and Cisco reminded Barry: "The second truck, the key is in the car."
"Quick, get in the car!"
Barry ran over to start the car and hurriedly waved everyone to get in, but just then, the headlights suddenly went out, and the car stalled.
The rolling door of the garage was slowly rising.
Farooq Gibran is here!
"Bang!"
The rolling door rose, and Farooq Gibran, with electric light releasing from his hands, slowly walked in.
Barry Allen got out of the car and stood in front of everyone.
Just as Farooq Gibran, who was a ruthless man of few words, was about to directly launch a deadly attack, Dr. Harrison Wells, who didn't know when he had arrived in a wheelchair, was behind him.
Samuel curled his lip. Is it time for verbal attacks again? Speaking of which, being a villain of Flash is really miserable. They just want to kill for revenge, why do they have to endure your repeated verbal attacks!
Do you have a quota for verbal attacks, and you must complete it?
"You!"
"You came for me!"
Farooq Gibran turned around: "You finally showed up."
"I really don't want to die very much."
"Neither did my friends." Farooq Gibran slowly walked towards him, the current in his palms sizzling and flickering.
"I know that I hurt many people that night."
"Many people? You don't even know their names, do you?"
Dr. Harrison Wells said without any hesitation: "Jack Davenport, Jinda Ya, Ralph Dibny, Al Rothstein, Grant Emerson, Will Everett, Beatriz Da Costa, Ronnie Raymond."
"I remember the names of everyone who died that night. I know that each of them was valuable, and this World lost the possibility of their future. This is the sin I will always bear."
Dr. Harrison Wells looked at Barry and the others: "But they, they didn't make the mistake! If you want to punish me, you can, go ahead, but don't kill them."
Dr. Harrison Wells sacrificed himself to save others, and his words were reasonable and logical. Farooq Gibran seemed to be persuaded.
After a moment of silence, he slowly spoke.
"You died that night."
With that, he made his move, and the electric light went straight to Dr. Harrison Wells in the wheelchair.
"Bang!"
The wheelchair tipped over, and Dr. Harrison Wells rolled a few times on the ground.
"Just pretend you just found out today." After Farooq Gibran finished speaking, he released the current again and blasted Dr. Harrison Wells on the ground.
"No!"
Barry Allen shouted, the Speed Force lightning flickering in his eyes, and with a whoosh, he rushed out and brought Dr. Harrison Wells back.
The unwillingness to watch Dr. Harrison Wells die in front of him broke his so-called pitching amnesia and restored his speed.
"Whoosh—"
After sending Dr. Harrison Wells to Samuel and the others, Barry Allen ran back to the lab to change into his suit, then reappeared in front of Farooq Gibran.
Samuel felt like he could barely suppress his inner urge to complain.
Are you sick?
You're still changing your damn suit at a time like this?
He already knows your real identity, does changing your suit even matter?
Will wearing the suit help you withstand more damage?
The problem is you're the Flash, not Superman; if you need to tank damage to defeat an opponent, what kind of Flash are you being?!
To take a step back, the suit is the soul of a hero.
Fine!
But couldn't you just take him down directly while your opponent is looking around and unprepared?
Do you absolutely have to stand in front of him and tell him, "Get ready, I'm going to go head-to-head and defeat you fair and square"?
Idiot!
