Chapter 140 Perfected Velocity Serum
Chapter 140 Perfected Velocity Serum
Vandal Savage raised the Staff of Horus with savage force and brought it crashing down.
The azure-blue energy light descended along with the Staff of Horus, enveloping everything.
Boom!
The surrounding objects were instantly crushed and dispersed, energy waves swept past Stephen, and the explosion resonated behind him.
True badass never look back at explosions.
Stephen didn't turn around; he simply pursed his lips in disappointment. The potential of this Staff of Horus seemed ordinary. While its destructive power appeared impressive, it was only a skirmish for the name of the god. Stephen possessed genuine power and remained unharmed.
"This... this can't be!" Seeing Stephen emerge unscathed left Vandal Savage struggling to accept.
"Hey there, I'm the one they call Impossible." Stephen approached Vandal Savage with a chuckle and tapped his finger on his chest.
In an instant, frigid air surged from his fingertips. Vandal Savage tried to dodge with a pained expression, but the icy chill rapidly froze the blood in his brain. Soon, his entire body was encased in ice, turning him into a human-shaped popsicle!
Switching tactics, Stephen used Vibe's power and summoned a wormhole resembling a tumbling cloud materialized at Vandal Savage's feet, causing him to plummet downward.
Puff!
Vandal Savage, now a popsicle-like figure, landed directly on the platform, startling Caitlin and Eliza, who were engrossed in serum's research.
"Who's this now?"
Observing Stephen's appearance, Caitlin Snow couldn't help but inquire with curiosity.
"An experimental specimen," Stephen replied with a faint smile. "He possesses remarkable regenerative abilities. As long as a single cell remains, he can resurrect. Study his cells to potentially counteract the drawbacks of the serum."
"Is he a metahuman?"
"Metahuman? No, he's an ancient monstrosity with a lifespan beyond reckoning. We didn't quite see eye to eye before, so I decided to resolve it now." Stephen explained while assisting Vandal Savage to thaw. Since he could be revived within ten minutes, Stephen allowed Caitlin to examine his cells.
The secondary personality remained dormant, leaving Eliza Harmon to display her characteristic determination and compliance. Despite being inexplicably transported here, she proved to be a valuable asset. It's worth noting that Vandal Savage's cells are truly exceptional. Although Stephen mimicked his abilities, there seemed to be no bodily alteration. While his cells functioned, Stephen wasn't interested in becoming a laboratory subject.
Before long, Vandal Savage was resurrected.
Without letting Vandal able to fully grasping the situation, Stephen used the telepathic control on him and cooperation flowed candidly.
As time passed, the sun dipped below the horizon, and night descended.
Caitlin Snow and Eliza Harmon were both prodigies in this domain. In the original story, Caitlin upgrade the velocity serum, while Eliza Harmon replicated the serum showing her talents by aiding Caitlin. Their mastery of the serum formula displayed remarkable aptitude. Caitlin briefed her on the serum, and Eliza Harmon's firsthand knowledge as a speedster led her to engage wholeheartedly.
Stephen requested Laurie to prepare dinner, and the trio carried on studying while eating.
As dawn gradually broke, the Earth was veiled in a silvery gray, creating an almost ethereal atmosphere. The hushed sky began to awaken, a thread of light tiptoed along the horizon's edge, and the landscape slowly brightened.
Caitlin's voice broke the stillness as she excitedly announced her findings from the platform. She turned towards Stephen, her excitement evident. "Comparing the data presents no issues. It's just the experimentation..."
"Psst!"
Before Caitlin could finish her sentence, Eliza Harmon injected the serum into her arm. In an instant, her pupils flickered with yellow lightning, and a tremor of excitement ran through Eliza Harmon. She transformed into lightning and zipped around, emitting joyful shouts. Eventually, she came to a stop.
"How did it go?" she inquired of Caitlin Snow.
"Everything's normal!" Caitlin Snow replied with a momentary pause.
"Do we still need to extract his cells for future use?" Stephen inquired of Caitlin.
Caitlin Snow shook her head. "I have created an artificial cells from his samples. These cells can divide and regenerate. As long as they're present, serum production can continue. His cell's isn't needed anymore!"
"That settles it!" Stephen seized Vandal Savage and led him outside, making their way far from the city.
He activated Betty's ability, the bomb-wielding girl, turned Vandal Savage's body into a bomb. This detailed transformation encompassed all his cells. While a specific method was required to kill Vandal Savage, it didn't necessarily demand the original method of employing a meteorite and Hawkgirl's abilities at three distinct points. If all his cells were simultaneously obliterated, resurrection would be rendered impossible, even if he possessed the desire.
Stephen withdrew his telepathic control and tapped his bracelet.
The steel battle suit instantaneously enshrouded his entire body.
"No matter what you do, I'm beyond death's grasp, you know... so wait for me. I'll return to find you," Vandal Savage coolly remarked to Stephen.
Snapped!
The black and gold mask snugly fit onto Stephen's face, and his eyes ignited. Stephen lifted his hand and snapped his fingers.
Boom!
An explosive roar erupted instantly, engulfing Vandal Savage in a detonation. Flames soared like a missile's ignition, forming a miniature mushroom cloud of destruction that disseminated fiery impacts in all directions.
The black-gold steel battle suit braced against the onslaught, its foot-embedded ground piles absorbing the shock. The suit's cooling system activated, ensuring Stephen felt no discomfort.
After an extended interval, the explosion subsided, and the residual shockwaves gradually faded.
Stephen examined the battle suit and found its damage from the explosion's force was almost negligible, necessitating only minor touch-ups.
"Excellent!" Stephen nodded contentedly and surveyed the vicinity for any remnants of Vandal Savage.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
After seeing that no limbs or cells remained, the battle suit promptly expelled energy into the air, propelling the steel-clad figure into a mid-air acceleration.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Sonic booms echoed and subsided as visible sound barriers formed in the atmosphere.
