Coastal military base on the east coast of the United States.

"Professor, can't you really analyze it?" In the laboratory, a dignified-looking, slightly blessed officer frowned and asked an old professor who had just come off the test bench.

The old professor glared at the senior unceremoniously: "Mr. Colonel! I think I put it very clearly! That piece of rotten meat is like a steak that has been fried in a pan for a month, and you still want to extract DNA? Are you sure you're not playing with me? At the last sentence, the old professor almost roared.

Also, whoever sleeps in the middle of the night will be forcibly woken up by a team of soldiers, and what experiments will be carried into the base, they will be angry.

"However, those pieces of minced meat were brought back by my soldiers only 3 hours ago, so they should be very fresh!" The colonel didn't care about the old professor's rudeness, he was not a rough mercenary.

"Hehe" The old professor sneered, looking at the colonel without speaking, his eyes looked like he was looking at an idiot.

"Professor!" The corners of the colonel's mouth twitched, and he took a deep breath, "Can you explain it to me?" ”

"I'm thirsty!" The old professor ignored it, and sat down in a chair beside him.

The colonel was helpless and personally poured the professor a cup of coffee: "I'm really sorry to invite you so late!" He slowed down, "I crave your help, Professor!" ”

After drinking several sips of coffee, the old professor breathed a sigh of relief and his face softened.

"I say it's like a steak that has been fried for a month, but it's just an analogy, not that the meat is fresh or not, but just like after extreme damage such as strong radiation or ultra-high temperature, not only does the minced meat not have a complete cell structure, but even the most basic gene chain is broken! The simple and crude explanation is that there is not even a single biological macromolecule in the minced meat! After the professor finished speaking, he drank his coffee and stood up: "If you are unwilling, you can find someone else to come and see, and now, I think you can send me home!" ”

The colonel nodded, and a soldier left with the professor.

"Are the three wounded awake?" The colonel asked his adjutant.

"Nope." The adjutant replied, and then looked like he was about to speak.

"What's the matter?" Seeing this, the colonel frowned and asked.

"Uh...... Of the three soldiers, the seriously injured one was in stable condition, and the medic said that all of his injuries were caused by a car accident; The other two soldiers had no other injuries except bleeding from their eardrums, but ......" said the adjutant, and his tone was slurred again.

"But what?" The colonel stared into the adjutant's eyes and asked.

However, their brain waves showed that their brains had almost no physiological activity, which meant ...... Now they're all vegetative! The adjutant replied.

The colonel took a deep breath, turned around, and walked towards the medical area of the base.

……………………

The colonel looked at the three soldiers lying on the hospital bed, eager to shake them all awake, they were participants in the whole process, eyewitnesses, only they knew what was happening.

"Get me all the best brain doctors in Boston!" The colonel stood for a while, gave the adjutant a word, and left.

There was another place he was going to, and it was another lab, full of the base's own scientists.

The lab, built on six basement floors, was originally a Cold War-era nuclear silo control area, but was abandoned and converted into a laboratory by the military.

In the center of the laboratory, Tom's skeleton is fixed to a glass shelf, surrounded by experts in lab coats.

"Hi, Colonel!" A man with gray temples and deep glasses saw the colonel, smiled and walked over and greeted: "Where did you find this skeleton?" This is simply the most incredible craft! ”

"Nope! This is not a craft, Professor William! The colonel nodded in response, "This is a real skeleton!" ”

Professor William's eyes widened, apparently judging whether the Colonel was joking or not, and after ascertaining the Colonel's serious expression, he looked at him with the eyes of caring for the mentally handicapped child.

The colonel's forehead was bruised, and he scolded in his heart: "Do you scientists like to look at people with this kind of eyes? ”

He didn't go into any more explanations, and asked directly, "Have you researched anything?" ”

At the mention of the skeleton, Professor William immediately became interested: "This is the most perfect creation ever created by mankind!" If possible, I'll definitely visit its maker! We tried all the methods to detect its composition, and neither high-temperature calcination nor laser cutting could destroy it in the slightest! Even gamma rays bounce off perfectly! It's a miracle of miracles! I've been doing applied materials research for most of my life, and I've never seen such an incredible product. Oh my! If you told me that this skeleton was made by some god, I would have chosen to believe it for a minute, really! ”

The Colonel was frightened by Professor William's fanatical appearance, was this still the same doctor who had always been a little cold?

This doctor is amazing, he is a classified person who belongs to the super S-level of the US military! He has contributed half his life to the US military, and none of his research results have been made public, all of which are military secrets!

Picking out any one of the words that is announced to the world is enough to make him win the Nobel Prize, enough to make him famous for all eternity!

It's a pity that those studies belong to the black technology of the U.S. military, top-secret protection, and they are rarely even used in peacetime, in official words, that is: strategic-level backup technology!

If even he is amazed, it will be really incredible!

"Professor" Colonel approached the professor and lowered his voice: "You didn't use [Zero] to try?" ”

Professor William rolled his eyes: "Do you want to destroy the base?" Or did you get permission from Mr. President's signature? ”

"I'm just asking! Hehe" The Colonel's eyes flashed, and he said with a smile, "So, the material of this skeleton is too powerful to be studied by conventional means, right?" Do you want to put it on the table as a collector's item? ”

"Hehe, of course not!" Professor William's face was full of excitement, and he pulled the colonel to the skeleton, and then used his hands to move the joints of the skeleton, as well as the sharp claws on the two hand bones that can be retracted at will: "See?" It's almost the same as the skeletal structure of a real person! It's perfect! And this razor-sharp claw, it's a killing machine! Do you know what that means? ”

"That, Professor!" The colonel couldn't hold back, "Haven't you seen that there is a comic book where a character called 'Wolverine' is very similar to this?" ”

"I never watch comics, I don't watch movies or TV! Tasteless! Professor William was upset that the Colonel had interrupted him, and his face darkened, "Can I continue?" ”

The colonel sat down with a "please" gesture before the professor continued: "My student, Freddy Barton's artificial intelligence research has made a breakthrough! We can use this skeleton as a framework to build an artificial intelligence robot! Do you know? That would be the perfect killing machine! It must be cooler than the futuristic robots in the Terminator movies! ”

"Uh...... Didn't you just say that you've never seen a movie? The colonel's eyes widened.

"Humph!" Professor William blushed, didn't speak, and turned to leave—he was going to discuss the details of the robot's manufacturing with his students!

Looking at the skeleton on the glass shelf again, the colonel sighed, sacrificed 7 fighters, and another 3 were almost brain dead, only to exchange for this skeleton, and I don't know if it's worth it.

"Call the captain of the vulture squad! There is also the staff on duty of the base's communications management department, I want to ask him what happened to them during the 16 minutes of missing contact during the rescue! The colonel left the lab, returned to his office, picked up the phone and ordered.
