American comics: Play as Kizaru and get off work in three seconds

"Okay, Qin Yang."

Thank you. "

Diana nodded and hung up the video call.

Qin Yang stared at the now-black screen and sighed.

He tossed his phone onto the passenger seat, turned his gaze to the window, where the night was deep and dark, but the distant lights seemed to be foreshadowing something.

He muttered to himself, "I hope everything goes well tonight..."

Time ticked by, and the particle acceleration experiment at the Central City Advanced Technology Laboratory entered its final countdown.

In the control room, the atmosphere was so tense it was almost frozen, and everyone's eyes were focused on the data on the screen.

Harrison Wells slowly moved his wheelchair to the control panel, a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

"Doctor, the energy core has reached the expected value and can be activated at any time."

A researcher reported to the supervisor, his voice calm and his tone even: "Very good."

Start the main program.

The researcher pressed a button, and the huge particle accelerator emitted a deep roar, making the entire laboratory seem to vibrate slightly.

On the screen, the data curve began to fluctuate wildly, and the energy value soared.

Meanwhile, in the crowd outside the laboratory, John Digger suddenly frowned.

A burst of rapid static came through his earpiece, followed by an unfamiliar voice: "You...think you can control it? It will devour everything..."

John looked around frantically, trying to find the source of the sound, but all he saw were noisy crowds and protest signs.

He lowered his voice and said into the headset, "Oliver, I have something to say."

Someone hacked into our communications channels and mentioned something about 'devouring everything'.

"...I need backup."

Oliver's voice came through the earpiece: "Roger that, I'm on my way now."

Keep an eye on things; don't let anyone near the lab.

John nodded, his gaze sweeping across the crowd, his eyes gradually turning cold.

On the town's highway, Qin Yang drove steadily, but the atmosphere inside the car was far from calm.

His phone rang again; this time it was Oliver.

"Qin Yang, there's trouble in the lab."

Oliver's voice was tense. "Someone has hacked into our communications. There may be a sabotage plan targeting the experiment."

How far are you from the city center?

Qin Yang frowned and glanced at the navigation: "About twenty minutes."

How's the situation on your end?

"Hard to say."

Oliver's tone was grave. "John is there, but there are too many protesters, and the situation is difficult to control."

I'm on my way to the lab right now.

Can you come and help?

Qin Yang was silent for a moment, then finally sighed: "Okay, I'll speed up and go there."

First, stabilize the situation.

"Thanks, brother."

Oliver hung up the phone.

Qin Yang stepped on the gas, and the car's speed increased sharply.

His gaze was deep as he stared at the dark road ahead, thinking to himself, "It seems tonight is destined to be anything but peaceful..."

Qin Yang and Diana walked out of the Central City Hospital. As night deepened, the streetlights cast a dim yellow glow on both sides of the street, and the air was filled with a mixed smell of disinfectant and post-rain soil.

The streets outside the hospital were not bustling; only a few cars hurried by, their taillights casting long red trails on the wet ground.

Qin Yang put his hands in his pockets, looked up at the sky, and saw the dark clouds disperse, revealing a sparse patch of starlight.

He turned to look at Diana, whose face was solemn and her brows were slightly furrowed, clearly still pondering the mysterious power within Barry.

"Qin Yang, what exactly did you mean when you said that Barry was given power by lightning?"

Diana broke the silence first, her steps steady, her boots making a soft patter on the wet pavement. "You seem to know something, but you haven't said it clearly."

Qin Yang chuckled softly, slowing his pace as he glanced sideways at Diana's strikingly handsome face. "Are you interrogating me, Your Highness? Or has your Amazonian intuition detected something unusual?"

Diana stopped and turned to face him, her eyes sharp as knives. "Don't try to fool me, Qin Yang."

You mentioned something about a 'system encyclopedia' at the hospital, and you also said that Barry's card changed from a white card to a purple card.

This is not something an ordinary person would say.

How much do you actually know?

Qin Yang shrugged, spread his hands, and put on an innocent look. "Okay, okay, the Amazonian princess is indeed not easy to fool."

But you have to understand, there are some things I need to keep a bit of mystery, otherwise it wouldn't be interesting, right?

He paused, and seeing Diana's increasingly impatient gaze, he quickly added, "Simply put, I have a kind of... intuition, or rather, some special information channel, that allows me to know things that ordinary people can't see."

For example, Barry, after being struck by that lightning, had something special added to his body, perhaps some kind of energy, which might make him... extraordinary.

"Unusual?"

Diana raised an eyebrow, her tone tinged with doubt. "You mean, he'll become a warrior like me? Or an archer like Oliver?"

Qin Yang shook his head, a meaningful smile playing on his lips. "It's even more outrageous than that."

Barry Allen may become the fastest man in the world.

"So fast you can't catch up, Princess."

Diana paused for a moment, then scoffed, "Runs faster than me? I'd like to see that."

She turned around and continued walking forward, her tone softening slightly, "But right now, he's still unconscious. We need to make sure he wakes up safely first."

"of course."

Qin Yang followed her, his gaze sweeping over a 24-hour coffee shop on the street corner. The warm yellow light in the window made people feel cozy. "So we have to hurry up and not just worry about Barry."

General Zod won't wait for us to have a cup of coffee before invading Earth.

Diana nodded, her tone firm, "You just said you were going to a small town in the metropolis to find kryptonite."

"Can that thing really deal with Zod?"

"One hundred percent."

Qin Yang spoke with certainty, a sly glint in his eyes, "Kryptonite is the nemesis of Kryptonians. No matter how strong Zod is, he'll be kneeling when he encounters that stuff."

The question is how to use it.

I don't want to just grab any random kryptonite sword and go off to fight Zod one-on-one; that would be too stupid.

Diana glanced at him, a slight smile playing on her lips. "You do have some self-awareness."

"But you say this town is your home? Qin Yang, I've known you for so long, and you've never mentioned your past."

Qin Yang paused, a complex expression flashing across his face, before regaining his usual relaxed smile. "Home, well, it's a place that makes you both nostalgic and troubled."

The town is nothing special, just an ordinary place, except that it hides some good things.

You'll see when you get there.

Diana didn't press the matter. She knew Qin Yang always had some secrets hidden in his heart, but she also believed that although this man was frivolous, he had never disappointed her in crucial moments.

She took a deep breath and looked up at the distant night sky. "So when do we leave? Tonight?"

"What's the rush?" Qin Yang waved his hand with a smile. "Zod hasn't arrived yet, and Earth hasn't exploded. We need to catch our breath first, right? Besides, Barry was just struck by lightning. We need to wait for him to wake up, or at least make sure he's alright."

How about tomorrow morning?

Diana frowned, seemingly dissatisfied with the delayed plan. "Tomorrow morning? Qin Yang, Zod could appear at any moment. You yourself said that Earth has what he wants."

"I know I know."

Qin Yang raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, "But we don't even know where Zod is right now, so taking any rash action would only alert him."

Trust me, Princess, I have a plan.

Tomorrow morning, we'll go to town, get kryptonite, make weapons, and then wait for Zod to walk right into our trap.

Diana stared at him for a few seconds, then finally nodded. "Okay, first thing tomorrow morning."

But you'd better not disappoint me, Qin Yang.

Disappointment? That word doesn't exist in my dictionary.

Qin Yang grinned, revealing his white teeth. "Let's go find somewhere to eat something. I'm hungry."

The smell of disinfectant in the hospital made me lose my appetite.

The two walked side by side to the coffee shop on the street corner, pushed open the door, and the bell on the door made a crisp tinkling sound.

There were only a few people in the shop, a waiter was wiping cups behind the counter, and the air was filled with the aroma of coffee and toast.

Qin Yang chose a seat by the window and sat down. Diana sat opposite him, but her eyes kept glancing out the window, as if she was wary of something.

"Relax, Princess, this is the central city, not a battlefield."

As Qin Yang flipped through the menu, he joked, "Would you like a cappuccino? Or do Amazonians only drink black coffee?"

Diana rolled her eyes at him. "I'll just have water."

What about you? What are you planning to order?

"A hamburger, fries, and a Coke."

Qin Yang closed the menu and waved to the waiter, "I need to replenish my energy tonight, tomorrow is a big day."

The waiter came over to take down the order and left. Afterward, Diana asked in a low voice, "Qin Yang, are you really confident in dealing with Zod? I mean..."

"If he really comes, can we win?"

Qin Yang leaned back in his chair, crossed his hands behind his head, and said in a relaxed but serious tone, "Whether we win or not depends on how well we are prepared."

Zod was no ordinary man; he was a general, the kind who led troops into battle.

But he had a fatal flaw—he was too arrogant.

He thought the Earth was his for the taking, and that no one could stop him.

This is our opportunity.

Diana nodded thoughtfully, "Arrogance... is indeed a common flaw among many strong people."

How do you plan to use this?

"Keep it a secret for now."

Qin Yang blinked. "When we get to the town, I'll show you something good."

It will definitely broaden your horizons.

"It's a secret again."

Diana shook her head helplessly, but a hint of a smile appeared in her eyes. "Qin Yang, you know what? Sometimes I really think you're even more unpredictable than Oliver."

"Haha, that's my charm."

Qin Yang smiled as he accepted the Coke from the waiter, took a big gulp, and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."

"Tell me about yourself, Diana. Were you this serious when you were on the Amazon? Training with a stern face all day?"

Diana paused for a moment, then gave a rare, gentle smile. "The Amazon...that's a completely different world."

There are no coffee shops, no hamburgers, only training, fighting, and faith in the goddess.

However, I'm not always serious.

The sisters will sing and dance together to celebrate their victory.

"Singing and dancing?"

Qin Yang's eyes lit up, and he whistled exaggeratedly, "It's hard to imagine Princess Diana dancing in her battle dress."

You'll have to perform for me another day.

"Don't even think about it."

Diana snorted, but couldn't hide the smile on her lips. "You'd better tell me honestly what your town is hiding."

Just as Qin Yang was about to speak, his phone suddenly vibrated. He looked down and saw a message from Felicity: "Barry is in stable condition, but he hasn't woken up yet."

Have you arrived at the hospital? Have the flowers been delivered?

Qin Yang quickly replied with a message: "Arrived, flowers delivered."

I'll come see him again tomorrow.

He put down his phone, looked up at Diana, and said, "Felicity said Barry is stable and alright for now."

Looks like we can relax a bit tonight.

"Relax?"

Diana raised an eyebrow. "Are you sure?"

"Okay, okay, half-relaxed."

Qin Yang smiled and raised his Coke cup, "Come on, let's toast to Barry waking up soon, and to us getting the Kryptonite smoothly tomorrow!"

Diana picked up her water glass with a sigh, touched it lightly, and said, "To Barry, and to the Earth."

The two exchanged a smile, the crisp sound of their glasses clinking together ringing out clearly in the quiet coffee shop.

The night outside the window grew deeper, and the streets of the city center gradually fell silent. Only the occasional sound of cars in the distance reminded them that the world was still turning, and that an even greater storm was about to come.

The next morning, sunlight shone through thin clouds onto the streets of the city center, and the air carried a refreshing coolness.

Qin Yang and Diana stood in the parking lot outside the hospital. Qin Yang was wearing a simple black jacket and carrying a tactical backpack containing some essential equipment.

Diana was dressed in a sleek black leather outfit, with a short sword at her waist, and her eyes were as sharp as an eagle's.

"Are you ready, Princess?"

Qin Yang patted his backpack and grinned, "The town near the metropolis is quite far, we need to hurry."

Diana nodded, her gaze sweeping across the parking lot. "You said you're the 'fastest mode of transportation,' what exactly do you mean? Don't tell me you're planning to run there on my back."

Qin Yang laughed, a sly glint in his eyes. "Carrying you on my back? That image is too beautiful for me to even imagine."

However, I do have a way to get us to town quickly.

Come, hold my hand tightly.

Diana frowned and gave him a suspicious look, but still reached out and grasped Qin Yang's wrist.

Her hands were warm and strong, with the resilience unique to Amazon warriors.

Qin Yang took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and a strange energy began to surge within his body, causing the air to tremble slightly.

"Don't blink, Princess, we'll be in town in the next second."

Qin Yang said in a low voice, his tone tinged with excitement.

"what?"

Diana was about to ask further when the surrounding scenery suddenly blurred, the wind whistling past her ears, as if the whole world was receding at an incredible speed. (End of Chapter)
