Cthulhu

In Connors' laboratory, Dr. Patty Edmund, who is in his 80s, and Dr. Collins, who is in his [-]s, are having an animated debate.

Connors looked helplessly at the two people who were at loggerheads. Both of them were elites from the Third Institute of Biology and leaders of their respective teams.

Patty Edmund was Abraham Erskine's experimental assistant.

He insisted on following the path of Abraham Erskine, and what he found here convinced him.

Back then, Abraham discovered the cells of a monster and extracted the super soldier serum from them.

He wants to copy Abraham's path and make the super soldier serum appear again.

Bernie Collins is different. He is influenced by cutting-edge ideological trends. He advocates the complete elimination of these monsters, and by studying the genetic sequences of these monsters, he can directly create a biological virus targeting this monster.

The two argued endlessly about their respective philosophies.

Connors rubbed his forehead helplessly, "You two, let me interrupt. Let's not argue about which path is right. Can you tell me if you have achieved results? The boss is urging you."

The two doctors thought of a bunch of reasons in an instant. Time was tight, the task was heavy, and the danger was great.

Before he could say anything, Connors slammed the table: "Don't tell me, time is tight, the task is heavy, and the danger is great, that's not what you said when I gave you enough funds for your experiment."

The two doctors, who had been arguing just now, suddenly stopped and looked at Connors awkwardly, "No, give me a little more time."

The two said in unison.

Connors was very anxious, with a irritable look on his face, "Two weeks have passed and we still have nothing. The bosses are anxious. Do you know who the monster was delivered today?

Beaton, New York City Councilman Beaton, these monsters are already among us.

We are required to produce results this week, not only to find a way to deal with this creature, but also to distinguish these creatures from the crowd.

If you can't take it out, not only will I be unlucky, but you won't be able to escape either.

You two, after hearing this news, do you still want to argue with me?"

Patty Edmund and Collins Bernie looked at each other and looked at Connors with some embarrassment.

S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Third Biological Research Laboratory itself was formed on an emergency basis. Their original identities were different and they were all professors from different universities.

Although both of them were transferred to this laboratory urgently, there are only a small group of people in the top circle of biology, and no one knows anyone.

The quarrel just now was not staged. If they hadn't been pushed hard by Connors, they wouldn't have come up with such a damaging move.

"It's not that we don't hurry up, it's just that this kind of creature is too weird. It can't be seen directly and cannot be described. Once it exceeds a certain limit, it will make people crazy. This is completely inconsistent with the theory of biological evolution." Collins said, feeling helpless. said.

Just when the two of them were still trying to argue, a doctor ran over quickly with great excitement on his face.

Quickly ran to Patty Edmund, "Professor, it worked. Professor, it worked."

"It's nothing to panic." Patty Edmund reprimanded, glanced at Collins Bernie, and said, "What a success."

The doctoral student was very excited, and even being scolded did not affect the excited smile on his face.

"The super soldier serum sub-project was successful. No. 48 succeeded. He gained the ability to breathe water and retained conscious consciousness."

"What?" Patty Edmund, who was in his 80s, stood up all of a sudden. He didn't care about Connors and Collins, he got up and walked to his laboratory.

Although the old man was old, he was in good spirits and his legs and feet were nimble. He arrived at the laboratory in two or three minutes.

There are four or five research instruments, spectrum analyzers, centrifuges and other equipment required for biological experiments in the laboratory with metallic luster on the walls. Three or two researchers are still doing experiments there.

Seeing Edmund and others approaching, he quickly stood up and said hello.

There are three walls, the east one is a transparent glass, and inside the transparent glass is an observation room that is also white.

"Where's No. 48? Let me see him," Patty Edmund shouted angrily.

Everyone in the laboratory did not dare to delay and quickly led him to the transparent glass.

Looking at the transparent glass, Connors quickly asked: "Why is it transparent glass? Can he observe it directly?"

Because the monster cannot be directly observed, Connors remembered that their glass was all frosted glass. Looking at the transparent glass in front of him, Connors was a little puzzled.

Xiaoye quickly explained, "We tested it and found that No. 48 no longer has the contagious aura and can be directly observed. This discovery is too important. Let's take a look at the experimental subject first."

Xiaoye sounded excited, and he was also excited about the results of this experiment.

He pressed a button, the bell rang, and the guard took No. 48 to the observation room.

No. 48 is a black criminal. He is worried and excited. He participates in the experiment voluntarily. He can be free only if he survives the experiment.

Not only did he survive, but he also gained an extraordinary ability.

"No. 48, show your ability." A voice came from the speaker on the wall.

Next to him is a large transparent fish tank, two meters long and wide, and even deeper, three meters deep.

Black man No. 48 jumped in without saying anything. When No. 48 jumped into the water, his cheeks quickly split open and turned into fish gills.

His hands and feet also have connecting fascia like the soles of duck feet, allowing him to move more freely in the water.

He seems to have become a fish-man, able to live freely underwater.

Patty Edmund looked at the mutated No. 48 excitedly.

It actually succeeded. This was an epoch-making invention. It was so successful without any preparation.

The old man was so excited that he almost had a heart attack.

He has achieved what Dr. Abraham once achieved, and one can imagine his excitement.

Although it is just a free movement in the water, this seemingly useless super power, but the meaning of science is to summarize, summarize and repeat.

Yes, only something that obtains the same results under repeated conditions and can be replicated can be called science.

As long as there is such a breakthrough point, subsequent research progress will be absolutely rapid.

Connors and Collins Bernie on the side were staring at No. 48 at the same time. They didn't expect that this old guy Patty Edmund, who usually keeps quiet, would make a big deal for you at this time.

"Edmund, don't stand there, show me your experimental records. I want to see how this guy mutates." Collins said from the sidelines.

Edmund also reacted at this time, experiment record

He didn't know much about the 48 project, and he didn't know that his experiment was successful.

After all, as he was getting older, it was usually Xiaoye who did the hands-on work. Now he also wanted to see the experimental records.

"Xiaoye, get the experimental records quickly." Dr. Edmund told the doctoral student just now.

Xiaoye was already prepared and handed over the prepared experimental records.

And gave one copy to each of the three lab bosses.

The scene suddenly fell into silence.

There was only the sound of a few people turning the pages of the book.

Without saying anything, a few people just started looking through the experiment records.

In just a few minutes, the three people's brows frowned.

"Xiaoye, how did you make this experimental record? Why do you only have the reaction record after the injection of No. 48, the preparation record of the medicine, and the ingredient list? Why are there not these most important things?" Connors asked strangely.

"Um, boss, didn't you ask someone to send you a potion? Didn't you ask us to find someone to try it?" Xiaoye looked at Connors with a strange look on his face.

Connors' expression was also very strange, "No, I have been in a meeting with Edmund and Bernie. What medicine was sent from somewhere."

Xiaoye didn't waste any time and took out a used syringe, "This is the sample that was sent, wasn't it from you?"

"No."

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay.
