The next day, even though it was Sunday, John arrived at the office early in the morning and heard bad news from his men: the four injured who had been tested had all managed to grow their lost limbs, but they all had died after a short time after they had turned into lizard-like humanoids.

Silently hung up the phone, in fact, he had expected such a situation a long time ago, this is not surprising, as for the four injured people, he had already left him behind, and at this moment, the phone rang again.

The call came from the front desk, John estimated that someone from the military was coming again, I don't know why, the military has been urging more and more urgently.

"Secretary John, Dr. Connors said he had a major breakthrough in his experiments, and he just told me he was waiting for you in the lab." The voice of the beautiful woman at the front desk was sweet, and the news from the words made John even more natural.

"Okay, I'll go over now." Unexpectedly, after one night, there was a major progress on Connors's side, and this unexpected joy made John not even care about resting, and rushed directly to Connors's laboratory.

When John arrived, Dr. Connors was already debugging the experimental equipment alone, and a mouse with a broken leg was lying quietly in the experimental box, and after seeing John, he couldn't wait to say: "John, today, we will witness a miracle in the history of human medicine." ”

"Let's get started." Hearing Connors say this, John is also a little expectant, but to be on the safe side, it is better to experiment first.

So, Dr. Connors repeated the experiment again with the genetic potion he had made yesterday and demonstrated it to John.

Dr. Connors looked at the mouse on the table with a somewhat excited expression: "Cross-racial genetics has fully worked, the leg of the mouse has been completely regenerated, and it is in good health, and no side effects have been found recently!" ”

"It's a miracle." John echoed with a glint in his eyes, and he looked away from the tubes of genetic potions, then at Dr. Connors, "But the trial is going too slowly!" Don't forget what our ultimate goal is! ”

"Slow?" Dr. Connors shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I don't think so, scientific research is a step-by-step process, not like a bard who can create inspiration out of thin air, our scientific research needs basic research, and basic research needs repeated experimental data to improve, basic research is available, our inspiration can work, otherwise it is to pull out the seedlings and promote it, which will have the opposite effect." ”

"My suggestion is that it's better to experiment on primates first, preferably chimpanzees."

"However, the boss doesn't have time to wait for you to study slowly." John's eyes fixed on Dr. Connors.

Dr. Connors's tone froze slightly, and he said in a somewhat sullen voice, "He has to wait, there is no way around it, unless he wants to treat himself like a guinea pig." ”

John shrugged and said, "He's not going to be a guinea pig, and he can't listen to what you say step by step in his current situation, all you have to do and can do is speed up the pace and weed out the useless steps!" ”

Dr. Connors's face changed slightly: "What do you mean, do you want to ......?"

"Congratulations, you guessed it, it's a human trial!" John stared at Dr. Connors and said word for word, "You need to conduct human trials!" ”

The words "human experiment" hit Dr. Connors like a hammer on his heart, and he staggered for a moment and did not stand firm, but took a few steps back before standing against the experimental table: "No, absolutely not, and I will never agree." Dr. Connors angrily refused, "This is murder!" Kidding with people's lives, you can't find volunteers! ”

John laughed and said, "Volunteers? Who cares, there are many things in this world that are not voluntary, we can say that this is a medicine that can bring a severed limb back to life, and I believe that there should be many people in the Disabled Veterans Hospital who will be willing to try it. ”

"Are you kidding?" Dr. Connors looked at John incredulously, "I'll go to the military and report you, you won't succeed!" ”

"What do you think?" John couldn't help but chuckle, he knew that Connors was from the military, but he still said confidently: "Don't speak in such a righteous and awe-inspiring tone, it was the same with Richard Parker back then, and it turned out that he didn't resign himself, not to mention" He changed his tone and said with some sarcasm: "As long as it's not on the news, you don't think the military cares about these things, right?" ”

Dr. Connors shuddered in his heart, looked at John in silence, and finally swallowed his saliva, still shaking his head resolutely, "I can't do it!" ”

"Alright then, anyway, all the research products and materials belong to the company now, good luck and say goodbye to your dream growing arm." John shook his head regretfully and said, "I regret to inform you that you have been expelled!" Tomorrow morning you vacate your office. Those little pets of yours can also be taken away. ”

As he spoke, he picked up some information and a tube of genetic medicine and walked out of the office.

Dr. Connors watched John leave blankly, remembering twenty years of hard work, twenty years of persistent dreams that would be shattered at one time, and his heart was full of discouragement, and then he was filled with anger and unwillingness, and then he thought of what John had said before.

"Say goodbye to the arm you dreamed of." This sentence reminded him that this was the original intention of his cross-species genetic research, "There will always be a way." He said this to himself, and finally his gaze rested on the genetic potion on the table that had not been taken away, "Maybe I can try it for myself first!" ”

While Connors was bothered by the experiment, there was a person on the other side who was just as worried about the experiment as he was.

New York, an unknown place, Nick Fury is standing in front of the window looking at the lake in the distance in a daze, as the director of the Bureau of Homeland Strategic Defense and Logistics Support, he is actually not as beautiful as others think.

As his henchman Agent Hill knew, the Boss would look out the window at the lake whenever he was worried.

The Territorial Strategic Defense Attack and Logistics Support Agency has the power to override many other departments, but as a direct department under the World Security Council, how much power it has also means how much obligation it has, and if Nick knew what Ben Parker said to Peter Parker that day, he would probably agree with it very much.

"With great power comes great responsibility." But sometimes, he finds that what he is doing is not an obligation that should be fulfilled, but the will of the superior.

As a veteran, Nick fought in the Vietnam War, and there were even rumors that he fought in World War II, which he did not deny, and he knew that he was indeed a by-product of Captain America's Super Soldier program, and with him a comrade-in-arms named Frank Custer.

In order to create a super soldier, he was experimented with like guinea pigs along with many other patriotic and ambitious comrades-in-arms, and only two people succeeded in the end, and the other is now a wanted criminal by the government.

Later, it seems that the military has abandoned the Super Soldier serum program, but it wasn't until he took over the damn long, awkward game that he realized that instead of stopping the Super Soldier program, the military had caused a mess of things.

An experiment that could detonate the contradictions between mutants and ordinary people, an experiment that has caused a lot of panic, an experiment that has taken hundreds of lives, and Nick Fury feels like he's off to a hellish start.

What makes him feel most uncomfortable is that the institution he is in charge of has a high status, a large authority and a wide range of involvement, which can be said to be the pinnacle, and has long surpassed all its predecessors, even the Gestapo plus the East and West Factory and Jinyiwei are far behind, but its original intention has changed.

It's no longer the institution it was created to protect the world, or that protecting the world and fighting evil is no longer the main purpose of S.H.I.E.L.D.

It has become a marionette in the hands of the big men above, a battlefield of politics and power, everyone wants to come in and intervene, everyone wants to get a piece of the pie in this huge organization, and the result is that the smoke is everywhere, and the miasma is full of smoke.

For example: plans to recruit mutants to form a special operations group were rejected.

God knows that when the TV reports of provoking mutants to interact with ordinary people appeared, Nick wanted to surprise that big-mouthed Congressman Robert, but he couldn't, because there were all kinds of members of Congress who were biased against mutants, and he estimated that he would have to use a missile to kill them, and then wait to be killed.

Nick Fury sometimes really wants to give up, why is it that while he is trying to lead the troops to push the tower, his other four teammates are forming a group to send people to the dragon? And they are facing more and more problems.

But they don't really know how much trouble they will cause to the world by what they do, just as the military has asked for Captain America to be given to them for super-soldier serum research.

Do these pig-brains with super soldier plans think everyone is Captain America Steve Rogers! Not everyone has Steve's noble feelings and reassuring character.

Especially when the military was planning to select experimenters from among the 100-battle elites, Nick was even more opposed to this plan, and he firmly protected Captain America's body and refused to be approached by anyone other than his own henchmen.

As a veteran who came out of a sea of corpses and blood, Nick Fury knows very well what the nature of those elites is, disregarding life, cold-blooded, and sometimes even unscrupulous, because he almost became such a person himself.

Once such a person gains great power, Nick Fury can't imagine what kind of disaster this is.

"Strength." Nick Fury rubbed the bridge of his nose with a little headache and muttered, "I need a team of superheroes, like the commando team under Steve back then." ”

He turned his head to a cold and glamorous maid-type woman not far behind him and said, "Ciel, add Daredevil and Dawn to the Avengers' tentative list." ”

"Yes!"
