The Hell Merchant in American Comics

The battle began to reach a stalemate.

The mutant soldiers were chasing very fast. Alec had to use his flash ability frequently, which put a great burden on him. Spellcasters have never been good at protracted battles. The energy consumption of high-level spells is very alarming, which means that If the spellcaster cannot quickly deal with the opponent and the battle is dragged into a war of attrition, then the possibility of his failure will be extremely high.

Alec realized this problem the second time he was forced to use Blink.

Although he still had plenty of mana, he still took out the soul coins to reduce the mana consumption.

The reformed soldier wields his sword like rain.

He didn't have any superb fighting skills, and his attacks even stalled from time to time, but with his strong recovery and super speed, he was able to beat Alec back steadily.Occasionally, Alec uses his Blink ability to distance himself and counterattack with spells, but these spells have difficulty hitting the modified soldiers, let alone causing substantial damage to them.

Among the mutants, Jean has the highest level of ability and is the least suppressed by leech poison.Even though the underground base was filled with leech poison, she could still barely use her abilities to contain the transformed soldier Alec. At first, Alec put his hope in mutants, but he soon realized that it would be difficult for mutants to help him. In such a high-intensity battle, Alec , his magic power can't last long enough for the mutants to get rid of the leech poison.

Raven's screams were heard not far away.

Alec was distracted and watched, Raven was impaled by Diamond Man's blade-like arm and pinned to the wall.

Such an injury is not fatal to a vampire, but because his body was pierced, Raven could not move. It would be very dangerous if he was chased by a modified soldier at this time. Alec quickly flashed over and slashed the soldier's arm with his sword. .The crimson lava sword collided violently with the crystal clear diamond. Before anyone could see the result of the sword, a bolt of silver light rushed into the flames like lightning, knocking Alec back again.

With Alec's helping hand, Raven covered the wound and retreated in embarrassment.

Vampires have very strong recovery power, but Raven's strength is limited and the healing speed is not ideal.Before the wound on her lower abdomen had healed, the modified soldier in diamond form had taken the lead and completed its self-healing.

The situation on the field became quite unfavorable. The transformed soldier did not pursue Raven, but turned around without saying a word, intending to attack Alec with his companions.The mutants were anxious, but under the suppression of leech poison, they were unable to stop the transformed soldier Wolverine from joining the battle. Although he had lost his recovery power, his powerful body and Adamantium alloy claws could still function. Looking at the injured Raven, he barely blocked the reformed soldier.

Deep inside the base, Stryker looked at the monitoring screen with satisfaction.

With the help of leech poison, the modified soldiers had the absolute upper hand. If this advantage alone was not enough for him to act so confidently, what really made him feel at ease was that these two soldiers were not all the power in his hands. .

He still has several similar modified soldiers on hand.

Genetic technology is difficult.

But if you have mature transformation technology, and have enough funds and experimental subjects, it is not as difficult as imagined to produce results.

Stryker has been relying on government funding before. Although his mutant research has achieved some results, it is difficult for the government to invest heavily. As a government, their first priority is to maintain social stability, and Stryker's research will undoubtedly make mutants The conflicts with ordinary people have become more acute.What's more, mutants are already a common phenomenon, and no one knows whether a mutant will emerge among their children. This determines that the government's support for Stryker is quite limited.

What's more, the government has so many projects on hand

When there are more choices, mutant projects with obvious drawbacks are no longer the first choice.

For these reasons, Stryker's research has been in a lukewarm state. After the Alkali Lake Dam stop, the government directly canceled Stryker's x-weapon program and invested the funds in other projects. department.

Of course, there is also Charles' reason for this.

When Stryker learned that the project he had devoted his whole life to was shut down, his mood could only be described as despair.

But everything soon turned around.

He met a man who also studied mutants in depth and saw them as a threat.

Dr. Teslak.

The biggest difference between him and Stryker is the resources he owns. Teslak Industries is a world-famous giant and a military-industrial enterprise through and through.Although Stark Industries has little reputation among the people, in the eyes of the military, it is a giant comparable to Stark Enterprises.The director of this giant company, Dr. Teslak, has unimaginable resources and an almost luxurious research environment.After Stryker suffered a heavy setback, it was Dr. Stryker who reached out to help and re-injected funds into him.

Stryker's ability to make a comeback so quickly is indispensable to Teslak Industries.

Of course, there is another important factor that facilitated this deal, and that was leech poison.

This was originally a trump card used by the military to deal with mutants, but Stryker gave this poison to Dr. Teslak in order to gain the support of Teslak Industries.

The battle between mutants and modified soldiers did not last long, and the outcome began to take shape. Under the attack of leech poison and digital modified soldiers, even Alec could not turn the tide. Stryker stared at the surveillance camera with some regret, saying no in his heart. Whether it was joy or sadness, decades of struggle finally paid off. Even though he was as calm as he was, he still had mixed feelings in his heart.

But he was undoubtedly happy too soon.

A cold voice suddenly sounded behind him: "Colonel Stryker, it turns out you are hiding here. It's really hard for me to find you."

Stryker turned around stiffly.

"How is that possible Alec?"

Just in the blink of an eye, Stryker was covered in cold sweat. He turned back and glanced at the surveillance camera. Another Alec was struggling with the reformed soldier.But the person in front of him was definitely not an illusion, because all the soldiers in the secret room were eliminated silently. He suddenly pulled out his gun and shot fiercely at the person in front of him.But these bullets had no effect at all. Alec's body collapsed into a ball of flames, and then quickly returned to form.

He waved his hand casually, and a red chain tied him, Stryker, tightly.

Stryker finally gave up: "He is indeed the person who makes Nick Fury extremely afraid of him. He is awesome."

Alec curled his lips: "Stop transforming soldiers."

"impossible."

Stryker's face was quite ugly, but he was still making the final struggle: "Let me go."

"Then, we take Charles and the others back to the Mutant Academy and wait for your next attack on Stryker. Don't insult my IQ." Alec looked at him with a half-smile, "Your plan is over, reformed soldiers. Although powerful, you still can't keep me. If you are brave enough, you can use your life to exchange for the lives of Charles and the others. Now, ask the reformed soldiers to stop, and then negotiate terms with me."
