Superhero Comic – Overlord’s Path

Chapter 38 2. Another Identity

When Rumlow came down from the third floor with a black box, what he saw was a silent Seber and a leisurely Coulson drinking watermelon juice. The tasks that Sen played on the stage will basically end up like this.

As Saiber said, Coulson is a person who is very good at "persuading", and Coulson did not deceive Saibo. It is really impossible for a level 8 agent, a level 7 agent and him The commanders of this rapid response special forces unit were dispatched together.

This time they had another mission, they just passed through Gotham on the way, and then got the order from Director Nick Fury to deal with the trouble caused by Cyber.

Although Rumlow also thinks that Cyber ​​is a dangerous person, for SHIELD, which is as huge as Mount Olympus supporting the world, Cyber ​​who mysteriously appeared in Gotham is just a dispensable little guy Forget it, those things he did may be terrible for this city, but for them, they are simply not worth mentioning.

Coulson turned his head to look at Rumlow and the box in his hand. The latter nodded to him. Coulson understood. He turned his head, drank the last sip of watermelon juice through a straw, stood up, and tidied up He took off his clothes, patted him on the shoulder, and said in a low voice,

"Seven days ago, the killers of the Shadow Fighters Alliance hijacked a cargo ship equipped with special equipment off the Atlantic Ocean. They will arrive in Gotham in the next few days. The equipment was made by the European Division of Wayne Industries for the US military desert combat plan , be careful, Seber, for the sake of our good conversation, let me give you a piece of advice, don’t show mercy to those lunatics, this sentence can also be passed on to the "hero" around you."

He took a small box from Agent Iceberg behind him, and put it beside Seber,

"Here is a small "gift" I personally gave you. Klein used drugs to kill nearly a hundred people in Eastern Europe. You killed him and comforted those dead souls. You did the right thing."

After finishing speaking, he picked up the sunglasses on his chest, put them on his eyes, and walked out of the Old Gun Bar with his two companions. Soon, there was a roar of an engine, and then it slowly faded away.

In the glossy black SUV, Rumlow is in charge of driving, Coulson is sitting in the back seat with agent Melinda May, and the silent female agent is holding a black box with her fingers on the box Rubbing on it for a moment, then turned to look at Coulson, and asked in a hoarse voice,

"You seem to think highly of him, Coulson, that's not like you."

"Important? No, no, no, personal preferences cannot be the basis for our actions, Mei."

Coulson took off his sunglasses, heaved a sigh of relief, and looked at the brightly lit Gotham pier outside the window, "This city is very special. It used to be a symbol of the rapid economic development of the United States, but some people have called it "" Crime capital, look out the window at these people, May, we are supposed to protect them, but we are not strong enough, what can they do in the face of the violence that is happening around them?"

"Ordinary people can't protect themselves even with guns, and just one Batman is not enough to make it more stable. I don't value him, but he is mysterious, isn't he? In this city where we are weak, one more opponent All of us with good intentions are good, especially since he is still a mutant... You have observed him for so long, May, do you think he is trustworthy?"

"How can someone like him be trustworthy? I can feel threatened even when I stand in front of him."

Agent May shook his head, took out a file from the box next to the car door, opened it, and inside was a piece of personal information. The unclear photo was the one who rescued Robin that night. Rachel didn't say anything. Wrong, many people have indeed watched that surveillance video.

"Cyber ​​Hawk, a mutant who mysteriously appeared in Gotham a week ago, with suspected self-healing abilities and short-term strength enhancement, is initially judged to be an Epsilon-level mutant, master-level fighting skills, and skilled firearms Mastery, with serious violent tendencies, extremely egotistical personality, unrestrained, suspected to have received strict training in a mysterious organization, threat level B+, necessary actions against him, it is not recommended for agents below level 5 to act alone."

May finished reading Saibo's information and turned a page backwards, but it was blank, which surprised her a little. She looked at Coulson, who grinned at her,

"How is it? I feel it. With our investigative power, it took 2 days and we couldn't find any information about his past, his family relationship, his social circle, his religious belief, where he came from, I don't know anything! I admit that I am very curious about him, but so far, he has not been able to affect the overall situation."

Coulson rubbed his forehead, closed his eyes slightly,

"Anyway, it's just some information about mutants, and it won't break the balance. I'm more worried about General Tresco's "weapon" plan. It's hard to imagine that the Ministry of National Defense will pass such a sensitive experiment. Although the director Fighting hard for our surveillance rights, but I just hope they can be more secretive and low-key, and stop provoking those crazy "mutant brotherhood"."

"It's Project Weapon X, you missed an X"

Rumlow, who was driving, turned around and said, "I think this thing is pretty cool, by the way, Coulson, that box has been opened."

Coulson nodded.

"I know, but that's nothing, it's just a fear of poisonous gas, and the director didn't intend to make all the insiders disappear, otherwise he wouldn't have sent us here. Facing the Shadow Warrior Alliance, they also need some special gadgets. Cyber ​​and that one Bat, let's hope we don't end up cleaning up the mess again."

Naturally, the conversation of the trio of agents would not be known by others, and after they left, Saibo turned off the light and sat alone in the dark, as if thinking in this quiet environment, but he squeezed it from his hand. It can be seen from the cigar and the thick smoke that his heart is not at peace.

Mutant!

In fact, he has always suspected whether his self-healing ability is abnormal. Now it seems that his worst guess has been confirmed by Coulson. He does not doubt Coulson's evaluation of him. Which S.H.I.E.L.D. agent would lie to him about something like this.

Coulson should not be an ordinary person. Seber can feel a bit of commanding temperament from him. He should be in the middle of that organization, and as Seber who has experienced similar incidents, he also knows that the Narrow Island incident even if it is placed in In the eyes of the mayor of Gotham, it is not a big deal.

There are 8 million people in this city!

He opened the small box in his hand, and there was a data card in it. Saibo took a deep breath, people who live at gunpoint will not give in so easily, even if life gives him sticks after sticks, he He took out his mobile phone and put the data card into it.

A screen marked with the S.H.I.E.L.D. logo opened on the screen, rotated, and Sable pressed the OK button lightly, and a document jumped out.

"Mutants, this is a mysterious existence that is almost as old as the history of human civilization."

This sentence immediately caught Seber's attention. He put the cigar in his hand in the ashtray and began to concentrate on reading this not-so-long document, although Coulson modestly said it was a "small document." gift," but it's definitely one of the things Cyber ​​needs most right now.

"At the invitation of Pierce, I came from as far away as Europe to post-war America to undertake this astonishing work, and dare I say, after the tragic death of Professor Bolivar Trask, I It's a real honor to be the first person to have full authority on this study... blah blah blah."

Saibo turned over 2 pages. This should be a research report. Saibo was not interested in the emotions and preparations of scholars. He quickly found something really important.

"I found that in all the 237 experimental individuals in the experiments, their genes contained a part of the structure that was different from ordinary people, only a small segment, but I believe that this is what made them different from ordinary people, more importantly Interestingly, in the genes of normal people, I also found some similarities to these messy and special aesthetic gene fragments, but they were not "activated."

"Professor Bolivar named it "X Gene". It is a pity that his research materials have been lost in the chaos, so we have to start from scratch. After 15 months of research, after the discussion of the entire huge team Among them, we believe that whether this short gene fragment is activated is the decisive factor in determining whether a newborn will become a mutant, and there are two ways to activate it, the first is the activation at birth, that is, the natural mutant .”

"This kind of situation is very rare, but in the research materials I have, such mutants are all extremely powerful beta-level or alpha-level mutants without exception, such as the Magneto King who destroyed 11 concentration camps in Nazi Germany, Another example is Charles Xavier, the leader of mutants who has good intentions towards the government. It is worth mentioning that he plans to open an academy in Queens, New York, that specializes in providing education for mutant children. This is a real good deed. People are afraid of this power, but we all know that mortals are stupid, and those poor children have a home at last."

After reading this passage, Saibo had several names in his mind, but he didn't stop, but continued to look back,

"The second type of activation of the X gene is much more common. Most of them experience severe mood swings during adolescence, which will lead to the activation of the X gene. 95% of mutants appear in this situation, but it is undeniable , compared to the total number of people with the X gene in their bodies, there are definitely only a small number of mutants who are activated at present, don't doubt, maybe your best friend is a potential carrier of the X gene."

"If we look at it purely from this point, I have to come to the conclusion regrettably: mutants are actually more like the evolutionary direction of ordinary people. Due to the incomplete statistics in the past, I can only make a guess: with As time goes by, the number of mutants will increase and eventually reach a normal state. Overall, the threshold for the number of mutants should be 10%-15% of the total number of human beings, which is enough to affect the progress of human civilization. number."

"If we have enough time and energy to search in ancient legends and myths, it is not difficult for us to find that many of the heroes in those stories and those famous figures in history have the characteristics of mutants, such as King Arthur Merlin who can use magic around him, such as the alchemist who drove a big ship to find the elixir for the emperor in the far eastern legend, such as the giant in Norse mythology, etc. If this guess is true, we have to face a pessimistic fact: mutants They have long left their traces in the history of human civilization, and they are more numerous and more colorful than ordinary people."

"So, whether we want to admit it or not, they are our stronger and wiser compatriots, and they are not monsters!"

"A table of mutant ability classification is attached - 1959 edition."

This research report is not long, it took Seber 15 minutes to read it, and there is a file with the same name marked with the 1998 revision at the back, Seber did not open it immediately, he needed to digest the knowledge he had just acquired.

The rigor and speculation in this article gave him a clear understanding of the group of mutants, and maybe it was the last sentence left by the unknown professor, or maybe Cyber ​​himself had calmed down Come down, in short, after reading it, he had a special sense of solidity.

People are like this. When they realize that they may be a freak in the crowd, they will always feel pressure, but once there are many people like him around, that pressure will disappear in an instant, even if he lives his whole life. They may not even be able to meet their own kindred.

But now, he was sure of at least one thing, in this new world, he was not a monster, and he had a faint feeling that the real door of this world had been opened to him bit by bit.
