The Outsider Squad knew how strange this force field was.
No matter how many abilities you had, you couldn't use them.
You would only be defeated without realizing it and be at the mercy of others.
Seeing the light green Still Force field rushing towards Samuel in an instant, the Outsider Squad couldn't help but worry about him.
Although Samuel didn't deliberately show or hide his abilities in front of them, they knew that Samuel was definitely also a metahuman, but they didn't know what his metahuman ability was and whether he could deal with this Turtle Man?
Hmm???
Just as the Outsider Squad was worried about Samuel, a strange scene occurred.
Samuel, who was originally in front of Turtle Man and about to be enveloped by the Still Force field, unexpectedly appeared behind Turtle Man at some point.
Teleportation?
Dimensional travel?
No—it shouldn't be either of those!
The Outsider Squad discovered that Samuel's body was flashing with azure lightning, feeling just like—just like Flash?!
Samuel grabbed Turtle Man's neck from behind. Turtle Man's expression instantly froze, and he immediately frantically activated the Still Force.
"Buzz!"
The Still Force field erupted again, and the color of its energy tide was deeper than before.
Turtle Man leaned forward, preparing to break free from Samuel's control. As a result, when he moved, the hand gripping his neck also moved with him!
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! You—how can you move?" Turtle Man exclaimed in disbelief, strengthening the Still Force again, but the result remained unchanged.
It was as if no matter how much he strengthened it, the hand on his neck was unaffected.
"His ability is to absorb kinetic energy and potential kinetic energy from the surrounding environment, thereby reducing speed and making everything around him still or slow-moving."
"When facing an opponent with such an ability, even if your abilities are outstanding and special, you are helpless."
While choking Turtle Man, Samuel lectured the Outsider Squad on the spot: "For me, there are many ways to defeat him, but for you or for most people, to defeat him, there are a few abilities that are most effective."
"Firstly, Speed Force, which is the kind of Zoom like Flash. The Speed Force within them prevents them from becoming still in the Still Force field. As long as they have enough energy stored in their cells, and as long as they persist for a few seconds, moving forward for a few seconds, they can defeat him."
"That's what I did just now, but for other Zooms, the effect would vary from person to person."
"Secondly, Teleportation!"
Samuel released Turtle Man. The moment his hand let go, he had already returned to his original position, standing in front of Turtle Man.
"So fast!"
"We were clearly staring at him, but in the blink of an eye, he changed places."
"So fast, so fast that it's as if he was standing there the whole time without moving!"
The Outsider Squad was amazed at the sight.
Turtle Man was also startled, and without thinking, he released his ability again.
"Buzz!"
Just as the Still Force field was released, truly in that instant, Samuel disappeared into thin air again.
"Uh—" Turtle Man's ability stopped, because that hand was gripping his neck again.
"To use the ability of Teleportation against him, you must precisely grasp the timing. If you are slow, you are just giving away a kill. This requires proficient mastery of your own ability and extremely high combat talent."
The Outsider Squad subconsciously nodded. Although this Teleportation and the previous speed seemed no different to them, both were gone in a Flash and appeared in a Flash, they could understand what Samuel meant.
Moreover, Samuel had already used two superpowers, right? Speed like Flash and Teleportation.
So, will there be a third, a fourth next?
"Whoosh—"
Samuel returned to his original spot once again, his purpose self-evident.
Turtle Man wasn't stupid either. How could he not see that Samuel's ability and strength were above his own? If he really intended to deal with him, there was no need to waste time. He was treating him as a whetstone to train these three women!
Angry?
Angry!
Furious?
Furious!
Useful?
Useless!
So Turtle Man didn't shout or become hysterical, but chose to cooperate!
He was very glad now that he had only controlled these three women and had not killed or injured them, otherwise he would not be facing being a teaching tool now.
Although he was originally a third-rate thief, he did become very arrogant after gaining abilities, but now, after being struck down by Samuel, his cleverness as a small person was back online.
"Can we start?" Turtle Man proactively asked for instructions.
Samuel raised an eyebrow and said with a smile, "Your cooperation makes me feel a bit bad about being ruthless. Fine, I won't kill you this time!"
Turtle Man breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said, "I won't tell anyone about what happened today."
Samuel clearly had abilities but had been hiding them, indicating that he didn't want to expose them. Turtle Man saying this was to show that he would keep the secret.
The survival wisdom of a small person!
Is it shameful to admit defeat?
It doesn't matter, as long as you don't lose face.
What goes around comes around. If it comes to my turn next time, I will naturally be arrogant and presumptuous!
Samuel shook his head with a half-smile: "I have a friend waiting for me. This time, I will demonstrate the last ability that can easily defeat him."
"Mind Manipulation Ability!"
"Buzz!"
Mind Manipulation Ability was released. Turtle Man, who was already ready to cooperate, his expression froze, and then he turned around and walked over to release the Outsider Squad one by one.
The Outsider Squad looked at Turtle Man blankly, vaguely feeling that he had been controlled.
Mind Manipulation Ability is not like other abilities that have obvious characteristics when released. It starts and ends unknowingly.
"Now you understand what I mean, right? You are indeed excellent, but your abilities are different. What I need is a squad that can perfectly execute any mission, not a single-task squad!"
"I will continuously expand the squad's lineup, but I hope you know that each of you, and each of your abilities, is valuable and irreplaceable."
"You guys go back first."
"Yes!"
The three members of the Outsider Squad nodded somewhat dejectedly, packed their things, and left.
The previous problem with the Outsider Squad was that they were a bit overconfident and arrogant. With superpowers, serums, and various technologies, they naturally believed they could solve all problems.
Besides that, they also had some cognitive misunderstanding about the nature of the Outsider Squad. There were a total of three, two of whom had a relationship with Samuel, and one was valued. They inevitably felt that this squad was composed of people like them who had a relationship with Samuel, a private squad specifically for him to handle shady matters.
Internal competition is everywhere. They had already fallen to the point of doing dirty work, and they instinctively hoped that the fewer people competing within the squad, the better.
"Whoosh—"
At Jitters Coffee Shop, after erasing Turtle Man's memory of his true identity, Samuel pushed the door in, pretending to have just finished a phone call, and returned to the two squads' table.
