Nolan raised an eyebrow, looking at the robber who died instantly upon arriving in hell.
He was quite unlucky; Nolan had chosen randomly and didn't expect to land directly in a gladiator arena.
After a brief moment of shock, the surrounding pedestrians quickly turned their attention back to Nolan's actions, completely unconcerned about the robber's disappearance, instead excitedly taking photos.
"Hello, can we talk?" Nolan smiled as he looked at Barry Allen.
"Uh, I'm going to be late for work, maybe next time!" Barry Allen looked nervous, his eyes darting around as he desperately searched for an excuse to run away.
"I advise you to think carefully!"
Venom Jie reached out and grabbed his shoulder, her grip too strong for Barry Allen to break free.
"Okay, I know a really good burger place."
Barry Allen's face fell, and he sighed inwardly at his bad luck. His body was already weak from lack of calories, and facing two people who could keep up with his speed, he couldn't escape at all, so he could only reluctantly compromise.
And whether it was his imagination or not, Barry Allen felt his body becoming a bit heavy, and he was more tired.
Venom Jie withdrew her hand, and Nolan also noticed the Flash's avatar appearing on his chest core, with a faint current flickering around the avatar.
"Speed Force acquired." Nolan's lips curved slightly upward, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes.
The Speed Force can be said to be the easiest bug ability to obtain in DC.
Although the Speed Force was obtained, because Barry Allen is the origin of the Speed Force, it is not infinite in the Marvel Universe; every time it is used up, it must be replenished by coming to the DC World, but it's not a big problem.
Arriving at the burger place Barry Allen mentioned, it was still empty at this hour, and Nolan generously offered to treat him.
Barry Allen unceremoniously ordered a huge pile of burgers, stacking them up like a small mountain, and Venom Jie also ordered a chocolate sundae.
While Barry Allen was devouring burgers, Nolan also took one and started eating, taking a bite and praising, "The taste is good, full of juice."
After Barry Allen ate the equivalent of five people's meals, he finally let out a long sigh of relief, leaning back in his chair, contentedly rubbing his stomach.
Nolan looked at Barry Allen and said with a smile, "Barry Allen, do you feel very secure now, thinking you'll never have to worry about not having enough energy to run?"
Barry Allen scratched his head awkwardly and said, "How did you know?"
Nolan smiled slightly, his gaze deepening as he slowly said, "Because I've also been in your situation, being controlled by someone whose strength is unknown.
Even if the other party means no harm, you still feel like a puppet on strings, losing control over your own destiny. That feeling is very unpleasant."
At this moment, the light from the restaurant spilled onto Nolan's face, reflecting the slightly bitter expression of his recollection.
Venom Jie quietly rolled her eyes, thinking to herself, "It's Nolan's time to start acting again."
"Uh, I didn't mean to, it's just..." Barry Allen began to apologize; even though he was being held by them, he proactively bowed his head at this moment.
Nolan felt a pang of guilt, secretly thinking, "Bullying the future Justice League's White like this really makes me feel a bit bad."
"It's nothing, it's human nature. I just saw that your ability is very powerful and wanted to talk to you," Nolan said with a sincere expression.
"My ability came on a rainy night..." Barry Allen also believed he had no ill intentions, so he revealed his abilities without reservation.
Venom Jie blinked, secretly muttering, "This guy has no sense at all; he even spilled all the weaknesses of his abilities like pouring beans from a bamboo tube."
Nolan also chatted with him about his name, the direction of his ability development, the World's situation, and his favorite vehicles. Barry Allen was also very happy; it was the first time someone could keep up with his pace, and he completely let down his guard.
"Speaking of which, what exactly are your abilities?" Barry Allen asked with a curious expression, his gaze shifting between Nolan and Venom Jie beside him.
Nolan simply smiled faintly, then slowly extended his hand towards Venom Jie.
Venom Jie understood immediately, grasping Nolan's intention. She quickly extended her hand, tightly gripping Nolan's outstretched hand, their fingers intertwining.
Immediately after, an astonishing scene unfolded: Venom Jie's body seemed to come alive, transforming into strands of black tissue that slowly crawled up Nolan's arm.
"Oh my God!"
Barry Allen was startled by this sudden change, jumping up from his seat, his eyes wide, his mouth agape, his face filled with an expression of disbelief.
However, after only a moment, his attention was completely drawn to the armor gradually forming on Nolan's body.
"Wow, that's so cool!"
Barry Allen couldn't help but exclaim, his eyes fixed on the incredibly cool golden armor.
"But... wait, does that mean your girlfriend isn't human? And that symbol on your chest."
Nolan smiled slightly and explained, "Venom Jie isn't human; she's an alien symbiote. As for my abilities, you should know by the symbol on my chest."
"She's an alien? But an alien as a girlfriend..." Barry Allen was a bit conflicted about his friend's unique taste.
Nolan put his arm around Barry Allen and said with a mischievous smile, "Venom Jie can transform into any woman, so she can satisfy any of your tastes.
Whether it's the pure and lovely type, the sexy and charming type, or the elegant and noble type, whatever type you like, she can perfectly present it and fulfill all your fantasies.
Not only that, but she can also forever maintain the beautiful appearance of an 18-year-old youth."
These words struck a chord in Barry Allen's heart like a lightning bolt, instantly captivating him.
After all, what man could resist the temptation of such an infinitely charming and eternally youthful girlfriend? He leaned towards Nolan's chest and said:
"Venom Jie, do you have any sisters you could introduce?"
"No, get lost." Venom Jie replied curtly. Symbiotes are usually sought for power; this was the first time she encountered someone looking for a girlfriend.
"Oh." Barry Allen lowered his head in disappointment.
"Hahaha, Barry Allen, don't worry, I'll help you find one if I get the chance."
"Thank you, Brother Nolan."
Venom Jie quietly stayed on Nolan's body. Although she could now exist independently, as a symbiote, it was most comfortable for her to be on Nolan's body.
There was a familiar warmth, a tacit understanding, and an indescribable sense of belonging.
"Brother Nolan, are you Superman's fellow Kryptonian?" Barry Allen asked curiously. The Kryptonian invasion incident made the whole World aware that Superman was not the only one.
"No, but I gained my abilities from Superman," Nolan replied calmly.
"Then, Brother Nolan, are you going to become the new Superman?" Barry Allen blinked his eyes, full of expectation.
"No, I am not a hero, nor will I become Superman."
