Chapter 84 - 84

I've already wasted a lot of time, so there's no way to study Gideon yet. It's a pity, I had plans for this AI, but there's nothing I can do about it. Maybe it's for the best... I'll do it later when I get to the other world. For now, it's time to get organized.

After making a few teleportations, I quickly made my way home. After that, I took a shower, drank some water from the Lazarus Pit, and did my usual workout. I hadn't been able to do that for the past few days. But usually I try to always exercise. Of course this was different from a normal human workout. A bunch of weights was standard in the workout. The punches, of course, had to be practiced in a tunnel on concrete walls. As it happens, the punching bags were useless to me. But there was nothing I could do about it... The blows, though not like Kryptonians, were many times stronger than human blows. It's just a shame I don't have anyone to fight with. It's been frustrating, especially since I've picked up a new fighting style. Being stronger, faster, and having super instincts, relying on human fighting styles was just silly. So I had to think and come up with a new style, the problem is that it's just theory. I don't have anyone to practice and refine the techniques with. It's worth doing something about it in the future....

After all that, I was more or less ready, even feeling rested, even though I hadn't slept. But I didn't really need it, it had only been a few days, and without sleep I could last more than a month without getting tired. So it's just a couple of things to finish up in this world and I can go on a long journey. Although, I can come back at any time... Anyway, I'll take the basic things.

Next, I looked at the recent news. Everything was expected... The company started developing several projects, which was good to see. It's been almost two weeks, so they already had results. Hopefully things would start working when I got back. A few apps started working, now it was sponsorship and advertising time, to attract customers.

Hartley's report was encouraging, he had managed to sort out the conductors and production and patenting would begin soon. Now that they had the money, they could open a couple of additional labs. In the future there would be a use for them, but in the meantime they could use the technology from Earth-2. All they had to do was give the flash drive to Hartley before they left.

I then quickly scrolled through the cameras to find out what had happened in the last few days.

In my absence, Patty Spivot came to see me, and before her, Flash. I was surprised, I don't know what he wanted. As for the girl, it's hard to guess; unlike the boy, she wasn't so pushy and left almost immediately. Barry even came in the house, no courtesy at all. He didn't think I kept my victims in there, did he? Well, if he did, it wouldn't be there. I can forgive him, though, because it's like his relationship with the detective was never created. And it's probably because of me, because I'm the only one changing the canon, so it's the only option... Poor guy... Although, they would have broken up anyway. Well, I'm not really interested in that. I'd have a fling with her if I had the chance, but I've got a lot on my plate right now, maybe later.

Hmm, speaking of broken relationships, I had an idea for another one. Wouldn't want someone taking what doesn't belong to them. So before I go, I should check in with Caitlin. I've been thinking about her for a while, and I've got some plans for Killer Frost. Plus, she's beautiful, smart, and soon to be strong. That's all it takes, if you ask me... If I want to establish power in the world, why not have women?

In other news.

There's a second Harrison Wells in Central City, the same one I ran into recently during my visit to Earth-2. If he's here, it means the story's on track. Although, as I've come to realize, it's as if the story itself is trying to go in a deliberately chosen direction, as if it were fate. Well, that works for me, so whatever. This guy's daughter is going to be a speedster, which might come in handy if I hunt them down.

Then there was Linda Park, under the villainous moniker, Dr. Light, whose abilities were quite curious. Photokinesis, the ability to become invisible. If I remember correctly, the heat of her attacks is over three thousand Kelvin, which is quite significant. What's more, the speed of her attacks is on par with the speed of light. Her powers might seem mediocre, but if applied correctly... But I didn't need them so much that I was wasting my time on it. What was better was to recruit her, see if she could be of any use. Having a personal meta person would be nice, besides, she's pretty good looking, so why not. And if that doesn't work out, you can always eat her. Hmm, I don't think that's necessary though...

Well, that's about it... The new Firestorm has shown up, so the Legends will be created soon. Even Sarah Lance seems to be back to normal now, just missing Palmer. Kinda like he's at Darke's now... Wouldn't mind visiting them, after all Darke uses magic. But I don't have time for that yet, maybe later. The world's quiet, though Zoom should be here soon. But that's Barry's business. I'll do mine.

The first thing I did was give the Earth-2 technology flash drive to Hartley. In my absence, he should be studying the technology. There's bound to be something useful in there, I'm sure of it. After that, I've ordered the construction of a couple of labs near where the main bio-chemical research center is being built. Basically, it's all going to be one big complex, with a prison next to it. Which will hold the regular prisoners. In America, you can own a private prison, which was a good thing. But the prison is just a cover, its main purpose is a special department for the detention of aliens. It'll probably be an underground complex connected to the laboratories. Very convenient, if you ask me. It'll be easy to study them there when I capture them.

If everything goes well, the new Particle Accelerator will be located there in the future. And the rest of the research centers will have to be relocated.

Finished with that, I headed to Star Labs, there was one thing I needed to finish before I left. I'll get it done there, and then I'll finally be on my way....
