Chapter 393: Suppression from the top of the food chain
"What the hell is this?"
In the base of Hydra, Straker and the others looked at the tall figure revealed in the experimental cabin with stunned expressions.
"I didn't expect that there was a humanoid creature hidden in the meteorite......"
On the other side, trapped on a chair-shaped device made by Hydra, Susan couldn't help but blurt out as she looked at the exposed creatures inside the meteorite.
The Fantastic Four has been researching such meteorites for a long time, and as Mr. Fantastic's girlfriend and research assistant, Susan has always shown an attitude of interest in various research data of meteorites. It's just that she never thought that there was a creature with an almost human appearance hidden in the meteorite that they had been studying for so long.
Of course, Susan knew that although the creatures inside the meteorite were similar to humans, they could never be humans.
"No, no, maybe it's not hidden in a meteorite, but ......"
The creatures that appeared in the meteorite made Susan forget the reality of her captivity, and she looked at the figures in the experimental cabin, and a large number of speculations in her mind were quickly overturned: "...... The meteorite is formed by the creature in front of you, a kind of existence similar to camouflage or protection, just like the protective color of living things in nature. ”
“……”
In the chair, Susan, out of the researcher's instinct, kept making various inferences about the existence of humanoids in the experimental chamber.
However, in Hydra's base, except for Wanda, who was not far from her, everyone else obviously had no time to pay attention to the captive's muttering.
Standing near the console, closer to the chamber, Doctor Doom looked at the figure that appeared in the chamber, his expression solemn under the steel mask.
Perhaps because of his special ability, compared to the others in the laboratory, Doctor Doom was more sensitive to feel an inexplicable sense of oppression from the tall creature that appeared in the center of the meteorite, which was quite strange, as if the creature in the lower levels of the food chain encountered the instinct engraved in the depths of the memory cell at the top.
It's like a mouse facing a cat, an antelope facing a wolf, trembling but not resisting.
Dr. Doom was quite disgusted by the feeling, but at the same time became extremely wary because of it.
After the space storm radiation mutation, the half-human, half-metal Doctor Doom still feels suppressed when facing the creatures inside the meteorite, let alone others in the Hydra base.
As the feeling of suppression became more and more obvious, Straker couldn't help but reach out and touch the one-sided glasses on his face, gritted his teeth and began to give orders to the Hydra soldiers in the laboratory: "Soldier, obey the order and launch a ...... on the creature that emerged from the meteorite"
"Wait, don't shoot yet."
However, before Straker's order could be carried out, Dr. Zola's voice rang out again.
On the machine screen in the lab, Dr. Zola's virtual image opened his mouth: "Maybe we can try to see if we can control this creature that appeared in the meteorite, I am quite interested in its way of survival, how this creature with obvious human characteristics survives in the universe." ”
Because he gave up his body to completely store consciousness in the network, Dr. Zola did not have the feeling of repression that Straker and others had. He looked at the tall creatures inside the meteorite, and the expression in the image clearly revealed the desire to study, through the power of technology, although Dr. Zora succeeded in gaining the power of immortality, but also paid a huge price for it, losing his body as a human being, most of his instinctive desires disappeared, only the desire to study still existed in his electronic consciousness.
Or, as Dr. Zola, who is incarnated as an Internet consciousness, only the continuous burst of research ideas makes him feel that he is still alive and not cold data.
"I'm sorry Doctor, but I'm sorry for the difficulty of accepting your request."
In the face of Dr. Zola's request, Straker's face showed a hesitant expression, but it quickly turned to a determined expression.
As the leader of the Hydra base here, although Straker is bent on building his own army of transcendents to fight the Avengers, he also knows that, as Dr. Zola said, the mysterious creatures that appear in the meteorite in front of him may really bring about a change in his plans.
However, Straker trusts more in what he feels inside.
The mysterious creatures inside the meteorite are quite dangerous.
Gritting his teeth and rejecting Dr. Zola's proposal, Straker immediately grimaced and gave the order to attack.
With Straker's order, the Hydra soldiers in the laboratory, who were already nervous under the inexplicable suppression feeling, immediately pulled the trigger in their hands. In an instant, the sky filled the laboratory with firelight, and dense bullets whistled out, raining down on the creatures in the experimental cabin.
"Hit, hit."
The constant flow of bullets was like a catharsis that turned the fear in the hearts of everyone in the base into the urge to shoot, and after more than ten seconds, as the last bullet in the submachine gun in the hands of the soldier next to him flew out, Straker raised his hand to signal that the shooting stopped.
After fanning the pungent smell of gunpowder that filled the tip of his nose in the entire laboratory, Straker squinted at the mysterious creature in the center of the meteorite that had been shot into a sieve and still did not move at all, and began to wonder if his previous feelings were wrong: "Is it just that I am thinking too much, this creature that emerged from the meteorite is not dangerous?" ”
"Chief, sir......"
In the laboratory, before Straker's inner thoughts could be completely revealed, the next second, he heard a distinct exclamation from the mouth of a Hydra soldier behind him.
"Living life in meteorites...... It's alive! ”
The soldier's cry immediately caused more panic among the already panicked crowd, under their gaze. The tall figure that had been curled up in the center of the meteorite began to writhe its body, and its stone-like but blood-colored and shiny muscles seemed to have life-like contractions, and then in the panic and fear of everyone in the laboratory, the muscle-covered but unusually slender arms stretched out to make a supporting posture.
"Stand up, it's up!"
Eventually, he supported his tall body in a twisted posture and stood up from the test chamber.
Boom!
“……”
Looking at the mysterious creature that slowly stood up, the expressions on the faces of Straker and the others had not had time to change.
In the next moment, because he didn't calculate the height of the experimental cabin, he hit the top of the hatch directly, and his whole body fell back into the experimental cabin with a bang.
The situation of the mysterious creature falling down as soon as it stood up may be a little funny, but there is no mockery on the faces of Straker and the others in the laboratory. Because with its movements, they have clearly seen the whole picture of this creature, and it is different from what they expected, the mysterious creature that appeared from the meteorite is not an ugly or deformed alien creature in their imagination, on the contrary, the appearance of the other party is as handsome as a Greek statue, with long purple hair, and the bullet holes left by the bullet on the other party's body not only do not make the appearance of this creature ugly, but add a different kind of mutilated beauty.
“¥&¥#%#*(……”
Falling back into the chamber, the mysterious creature shook its head, glanced up at the hatch above its head, and uttered a series of strange and rapid tones.
"Is this, a language?"
Trapped on the chair, Susan had been paying attention to the scene in the experimental cabin since the moment the creature in the meteorite appeared, and when she heard the voice coming from the mouth of the mysterious creature, she couldn't help frowning and subconsciously made a guess.
"Do you know what it's talking about?"
Standing not far from Susan, Wanda had been silently hearing her muttering.
At this moment, he couldn't help but ask.
Turning her head to look at Wanda beside her, Susan shook her head: "This is obviously not any known language on the earth, but since the other party has a language, it means that this creature is likely to have a civilization of its own race." ”
A few words of indeterminate intonation came out of his mouth, and the mysterious creature wriggled its body to its feet again.
In terms of height, the mystical creature of more than two meters was clearly beyond the maximum top of the test chamber, and he would have to lower his head if he didn't want to fall like he had before. However, it was clear that the mysterious creature had made a different choice, and he reached out his palm to grasp the top of the hatch, and the next second, with a harsh bending, the heavy, solid metal of the chamber was easily pulled off like a shortbread.
"This power!"
Beneath the steel mask, Doctor Doom looked at the metal hatch that had been easily pulled off in the hands of the mysterious creature, and his eyes flashed with a solemn light.
Tossing the metal hatch cover aside in his hand, the mysterious creature stepped out of the experiment chamber with a large gap. Turning his head to look at the people in the laboratory, he tilted his head and said, "%......*¥%)*(&"
"It'...... It's talking! ”
Under the gaze of the mysterious creature, the sense of suppression on Straker and the others became even stronger.
Avoiding the other's gaze, Straker looked at the screen to the side, watching the image of Dr. Zola as he stayed there, gritting his teeth and asking.
"Dr. Zola, can you know what the other person is saying?"
"Nope."
On the screen, Dr. Zola's image shook his head and gave Susan a glaring answer: "I recorded what the other person said, and searched all the languages known on Earth, but there was no match for it. Perhaps, I can decipher the meaning of his words by recording more of the conversation, but it will take time......"
"Is that so?"
Hearing Dr. Zola's reply, Straker muttered softly, but then restrained his regret. He wasn't a researcher like Dr. Zola after all, and he didn't have much desire to study this mysterious creature that emerged from meteorites.
On the contrary, the strength shown by the other party has proved Straker's previous hunch.
Turning his head to sweep the Hydra soldiers around him, Straker finally fixed his gaze on Doctor Doom not far away.
Previously, the Hydra's attack had proven that the bullets in the hands of the soldiers were not as lethal to the mysterious creature in front of them as they imagined.
“&*%……*¥¥#)~”
After opening his mouth and saying a few words to Straker and the others in the laboratory, he found that they were slow to react, and the mysterious creature twisted his head, felt the strangeness of his body, looked down and noticed the dense bullet holes on his body, and his handsome face like a Greek statue frowned slightly.
In the next instant, a large number of bullets were pushed out of these bullet holes.
Bang, bang-
The dense bullets rained down on the ground, making a series of crisp crashing sounds.
"Dr. Doom."
Seeing the bullets coming out of the mysterious creature and the wounds on the other party's body healing at a speed visible to the naked eye, Straker's expression changed, and he immediately anxiously reminded the Doctor Doom around the console.
In just a few minutes of the mysterious creature standing up, the other party had already continuously demonstrated two abilities beyond ordinary people, super strength and recovery ability.
In fact, without being reminded by Straker, Dr. Doom had already sensed the crisis of the situation.
The appearance of the mysterious creature completely disrupted his plan, and how to let the other party continue to act, it is very likely that his previous painstaking efforts will come to naught. Thinking of this, Doctor Doom no longer hesitated, controlled his body to generate a large amount of electricity, and immediately blasted towards the mysterious creature in front of him.
Cracking sound!
The violent electric current was controlled by Dr. Doom into two dazzling lightning bolts and struck the mysterious creature's body, and in the face of his powerful and rapid attack, even the mysterious creature that emerged from the meteorite seemed to be unable to react for a while, and was hit by the lightning fiercely, and the instantaneous impact even flew out of its tall body.
Bang –
With the violent force of the electric current, the mysterious creature flew into the air as if it was powerless to parry, and crashed into a large area of equipment in the laboratory.
However, looking at the figure of the other party flying out upside down, Dr. Doom's face did not dare to relax in the slightest, so judging from the ability shown by the mysterious creature before, it was obvious that a few lightning bolts alone could not destroy the other party.
Therefore, without any hesitation, watching the mysterious creature fly out of the direction of the crash, Doctor Doom once again condensed the electric current in his hand and turned into violent lightning, which continued to fall on the other party's body.
"Did you succeed?"
The lightning lasted for more than ten seconds, and then Dr. Doom stopped his movements, controlling his metal arm, which was reddened by the frequent use of his abilities, to converge the only remaining electricity on his body, and looked at the direction of the corner of the laboratory that was scorched by a large number of lightning strikes, and his eyes flashed.
