Chapter Eighty-Eight: If You Want to Wear a Crown, You Must Bear Its Weight

Such a strange and unreasonable circular secret room is the environment in which Li Jie is now.

In such a complex situation, he not only had to constantly control and stabilize his own electromagnetic field and shield himself from the influence of the strong magnetic constraints inside the "magnetic cage" tokamak, but also to deflect his mind and use electromagnetic force to deflect and unload those crazy charged particle streams and plasma clusters from the high-speed impact.

The difficulty of this can be imagined, and even he was caught off guard for a while, and he was repeatedly hit by the frenzied particle flow.

But fortunately, after surviving the initial stage, Li Jie finally gradually adapted to this crazy environment, and entered the really most difficult stage - using powerful electromagnetic force to capture those high-temperature plasmas that rushed to the gushing out, and then carefully separated them little by little, and gradually incorporated them into his soul origin.

If at this time, another powerful demon would perceive and detect, he would see such a wonderland, Li Jie, surrounded by countless colorful light and flames, accurately captured a relatively faint stream of reddish high-temperature particles from the torrent of the sky, and incorporated it into his own soul origin formed by the convergence of thousands of glows.

With the difficult realization of this step, Li Jie's whole body shook violently, his golden pupils instantly shrank to one point, all the muscles around his body were tense and trembling violently, and he even raised his head to the sky and let out a silent roar, countless crimson scales like blood involuntarily pierced the skin and burst out, and gradually faded rapidly, and the light flames around his body continued to shake out uncontrollably, sweeping out circles of light and shadow ripples in the void!

The unimaginable pain made the tall glowing figure almost unbearable, and the crazy agitation was almost on the verge of collapse, but it was stubbornly supported by Li Jie's amazing control. I was just trembling because of the pain in my soul. It is no longer even able to control its own electromagnetic field stably. It was hit by several vigorous red plasma clusters in a row, and a series of terrifying energy storms erupted!

This feeling of forcibly removing the soul origin defense and allowing the ultra-high temperature plasma to be integrated into it and gradually transformed into nutrient tempering is ten million times more painful than ordinary people falling naked into the ice cap of the South Pole.

When the pain reached the extreme, even Li Jie's own consciousness dissipated and dazed for a moment, and the depths of his soul fell into a blank. Mechanically and mechanically, they can only act on instinct.

This originally short process seemed to have passed thousands of years in the depths of his soul, and when Li Jie regained consciousness again, the form of his whole body was already in the constant change of human and demonic bodies.

A seemingly simple fusion, but it produced unimaginable pain, which made Li Jie also flash a trace of fear in his heart, fortunately, he did not rely on his strength and blindly increased the energy amplitude of the ring fusion chamber, otherwise the consequences were really unpredictable.

His footsteps stepped out of the void, and the electromagnetic field and light flames around him that had regained their stability suddenly shook into a circle of ripples. Forcing the surrounding crimson plasma cloud open, golden pupils reappeared from the nightmarish black eyes. Six thick horns extended from the forehead, and they simply completely transformed into demonic forms, but on the surface of the originally deep blood-like scale armor, one after another esoteric and mysterious lines gradually emerged, already carrying an extremely subtle trace of dull gold.

And he also deeply felt that although his spirit was much tired, the soul source seemed to be vibrating with joy, and he only drew energy and new life from pain, and gained a strength comparable to the work of ordinary days.

There was a hint of indescribable meaning in Li Jie's heart, not only the joy brought by the growth of the soul origin, but also the bitterness and horror. This method of forcibly grabbing high-energy plasma to strengthen itself was far more difficult and dangerous than he expected, and those uncontrollable ultra-high temperature charged particle streams were like dangerous flames, which could injure themselves or even incinerate them if they were not careful.

But at the same time, on the other hand, this simulation of the environment of the sun's photosphere is conducive to his observation and perception of these wonderful energies, and further familiarity and control.

In the human world, the phenomenon of plasma is not uncommon, and the top of the burning flame and the dazzling lightning, and even the brilliant aurora are the result of the action of the isoplasma.

In the vast universe, the plasma state is a ubiquitous state, and the internal temperature and pressure of most of the luminous planets in the universe are unimaginably high, and the matter inside these planets is almost all in the plasma state. It is only in those dim planets and scattered interstellar matter that it is possible to find solid, liquid and gaseous matter.

According to Steve, the plasma state accounts for 99% of the cosmic matter currently observed by humans.

That is, it is an extremely universal energy.

Li Jie forcibly abandoned the distracting thoughts in his heart, because he knew that once he couldn't help but imagine and recall the pain of merging with the soul origin, he was afraid that he would probably give up trying because of fear. And such a result is something he would never want to see.

This reminded him of a proverb among human beings, "There is no harvest without pain."

It's just that there are a few people who can really taste the deep meaning and turn it into action.

Time passed little by little, and in the closed "magnetic cage", Li Jie's body was like a swimming fish, cruising at an unimaginably fast speed, while concentrating on observation, while constantly searching for a relatively weak plasma cloud suitable for absorption......

Half an hour later, the naked Li Jie walked out of "Helios", and the thick black shiny new hair stubble gradually grew on the top of his head, and he returned to his original appearance. Steve, Gilbert and the others all felt that the boss in front of them seemed familiar and unfamiliar, although the perfect tall and strong body shape had not changed in the slightest, the skin on the surface of the body seemed to be glittering with a soft luster in every curvature, producing a contradictory feeling of both gorgeous and peaceful, even if it was just a slight skimming of the corners of the eyes, it gave birth to the feeling of being burned and dazzling.

In their superficial perception, Li Jie at this time was more like a brilliant light, difficult to distinguish any form, and endless light and heat gushed out, which was unbearable.

……

Arlington County, Virginia, Defense Pre-Research Agency Headquarters.

Marlow? Chaplin's tall body slowly stood up, took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped his hands carefully, and walked out of the special confinement room without looking back.

Behind him, the alloy door dozens of centimeters thick slowly closed, leaving only a small window, completely isolating a trembling prisoner who was crawling on the ground, and above the prisoner's neck, a conspicuous metal neck ring emitted a faint luster.

After passing through heavily guarded corridors and several levels of safe passage, Marlowe was soon back in Atley? Hopson's biological lab.

"Interrogating the prisoners again? What's new? ”

Atley barely raised his head, and asked aloud as he busied himself with what he was doing, as if he could tell from his footsteps that it was his arrival.

"It's still all the scattered news, there's nothing new, and these idiots don't know much."

Marlowe moved his steps and walked to the other party's side calmly, not at all as if he had just interrogated an extremely serious offender.

The vast majority of the so-called superhumans captured in the Wall Street incident have been transferred to the North Branch Prison under the Department of Defense in western Maryland, where they will receive special "care" without fail.

And several of the "lucky ones" were secretly transferred to the Pre-Research Bureau as the subjects of the experiment. In just a few days, Marlowe had even asked how many times they wet the bed when they were young. These seemingly uncontrollable superpowers, after stopping taking drugs, are only slightly stronger than ordinary people, under the dual control of directional neck bombs and special cages and strict surveillance, they can't stir up the slightest wind and waves, and their minds are even more fragile, even less than some extremely fanatical terrorists.

Let Marlowe easily defeat the mental defense and dig out the foundation.

That's right, they've identified the source of these so-called superpowers' special powers. Marlowe casually picked up a transparent tablet from the utensils on the table, and the clear "P" was clearly displayed in the light of the laboratory.

These seemingly tiny things, after entering the human body, can actually burst out with such an amazing effect, which makes Marlowe's heart more vigilant, and gives birth to a feeling of irritability that has nowhere to focus.

These drugs, which circulate everywhere through private channels, can only be traced to those smuggled goods dealers everywhere, and it is not a one-time effort to dig deeper into the root cause. Obviously, the supplier has already made full preparations, and has an unimaginably complete network, which can be called a hand and eye.

"I heard that the corona and Lockheed Martin have agreed to the requirements of the top and have entered the stage of detailed consultations, and they cooperate like this, do you still doubt that the whole thing and Bruce? Does Lee have a relationship? ”

As if guessing what his old friend was thinking, Atley turned to look at him.

Marlowe didn't answer, just sneered, although it was difficult to understand why the Corona Company accepted the plan of the Ministry of Defense so easily, he trusted his intuition and judgment more, and would not give up his doubts easily, but he couldn't find a new breakthrough for the time being. And will this strange drug called "Pandora" become the key?

Seeing that he didn't mean to discuss the topic, Atley asked worriedly:

"If the whole package passes, it's best to go through a stage of testing before you accept the modification to avoid any hidden dangers."

Marlowe is still silent, the video of Li Jie wearing ghost armor in the Wall Street battle, he has played it countless times, and it has long been deeply engraved in his memory, and the strong sense of urgency and pressure makes him almost suffocated, and he has offered to become the first batch of genetic modification personnel in the military.

"I'll take notice."

Almost gritting his teeth, Marlowe spat out such a sentence. The resolute attitude contained in it made Atli sigh helplessly, but he decided to put more effort into research and protect his old friend and do his part. (To be continued......)
