Chapter 22 Serum Enhancement Experiments
That night, the four of them talked about late at night.
The next day, Steve follows Agent Carter to the secret lab.
Lying in the wide reinforced cabin, Steve's thin body writhed uneasily.
"Are you comfortable?" Chen Mo stood beside Steve and asked.
"It's a bit big, Master." After seeing Chen Mo, Steve obviously relaxed a lot.
"Soon you'll feel small." Chen Mo smiled mysteriously.
"Remember, no matter what, you have to hold on." Chen Mo solemnly admonished that after improvement, the effect of the serum has become stronger, but the pain caused by the enhancement will also be greater.
"I will, Master." Steve nodded firmly, he finally got this opportunity, and he would definitely not give up.
After dismissing the unrelated personnel, the doctor picked up the microphone.
"Ladies and gentlemen"
"Today is our first step on the road to peace"
"First of all, we did a series of minimally invasive injections"
"Inject serum into muscle groups"
"Serum injection triggers rapid changes in cells"
"After that, it stimulates growth"
"Then penetrate the main body through the life rays"
……
With Dr. Erskine's explanation, the experiment began, and after the serum injection, the booster chamber closed and began to irradiate life rays, and intense white light emanated from the window of the booster chamber.
As the rays grew stronger, Steve began to lose control and screamed in pain.
Seeing this, Agent Carter hurriedly shouted anxiously, "Turn it off!" ”
"Steve!" Dr. Erskine tapped on the reinforcement pod and shouted, seeing that Steve was unresponsive, the doctor hurriedly shouted, "Turn it back, Mr. Stark, turn it off!" ”
Howard was about to turn off the ray when Steve suddenly hissed and shouted.
"No!"
"Don't turn it off!"
"I can handle it!"
Howard paused and looked at Dr. Erskine, who looked at Chen Mo.
Chen Mo nodded affirmatively, "He can do it." ”
The doctor nodded to Howard, and when Howard saw this, he slowly turned the switch to the maximum.
As the white light from the window became brighter and brighter, more and more dazzling, everyone couldn't help but lower their heads and raised their hands to block their eyes.
Soon, sparks and bursts of white smoke came out of the experimental equipment, and finally all stopped, the bright light gradually dissipated, and the reinforcement cabin stood there quietly, without any movement.
"Mr. Stark." The doctor motioned for Howard to open the augmentation pod.
Under the anxious gaze of everyone, the reinforcement cabin slowly opened, and a tall figure with strong muscles was slowly revealed.
The experiment succeeded, and Steve managed to transform from a skinny little man into a tall, strong supersoldier.
"I did it, Master." Steve said weakly, the great pain of the reinforcement just now made him almost unable to hold on.
"We made it!" Helping Steve out of the strengthening cabin, Chen Mo was inevitably a little excited in his heart, the new enhanced serum was completed with his own assistance, Steve's body was taller and stronger than in the movie, showing that the new serum was more powerful than the original, which was undoubtedly his own credit.
"Yes, we succeeded!" Dr. Erskine was calmer than expected, but Howard was a little excited, "You really succeeded!" ”
Peggy Carter stepped forward quickly, looking at Steve's naked upper body in front of him, the explosive muscles reflected in the light, and Carter, who had a good impression of Steve, couldn't help but panic.
"How are you feeling?" Carter asked with a deep breath.
"I've grown taller." Steve was still a little weak and replied weakly.
Agent Carter, who has always been vigorous and heroic, turned into a little woman at this time, looked at the developed chest muscles in front of her, and couldn't help but reach out and touch it.
"It looks tall."
As the crowd basks in the excitement of success, Hydra's infiltrating spy suddenly detonates the bomb, snatches the only remaining super-soldier serum, and shoots Dr. Erskine.
Steve, who had just received superhuman strength, saw Dr. Erskine, who had single-handedly created himself, be shot and died, and angrily got up and chased him out.
The Hydra spy rushed out all the way, killing several guards and the female owner of the antique shop who was guarding outside the secret laboratory, and then fled in a car with the help of his accomplices.
The Carter agent who was the first to chase after him, with accurate marksmanship, shot the driver in the head, and the car hit his head on the side of the road and stopped.
The Hydra spy quickly got out of the car, grabbed a nearby parked taxi, and crashed straight into Carter.
Carter calmly raised his gun to shoot, seeing that the car was about to hit Carter, at this time Steve quickly rushed over, hugged Carter and pounced, dodging the impact of the car.
"I'm aiming for him!" Carter shouted angrily.
If Steve hadn't knocked her down, she would have hit the Spy with her last shot, and of course, she herself would have been hit by a car.
"I'm sorry." Steve didn't have time to say more, and got up to chase after the spy.
After a chase battle, the curtain came down on the docks, and the Hydra spy, who was driving a hidden one-man submarine and trying to escape, was caught by Captain America breaking through the hatch and thrown ashore.
Knowing that there was no hope of escape, the Hydra spy shouted "Long live Hydra!" ", committed suicide by taking poison.
Looking at the broken serum in the corner, Chen Mo, who was hidden in the shadows, quietly left.
With the death of Dr. Erskine and the loss of serum, the Super Soldier program stalled and was eventually mothballed.
The spy hunt in New York made Steve famous in the newspapers, and Senator Brad took a fancy to this and used his power to recruit Steve from the lab.
They packaged Steve as an American hero, helped them sell defense bonds, made propaganda films, and toured the United States, making Captain America's name quickly resounding across the country.
At the same time, on the other side, in a hidden base of the Strategic Science Reserve, Dr. Erskine, who should have died, sat peacefully at the conference table, in addition to Colonel Phillips, Agent Carter and Chen Mo, Howard Stark also appeared here.
"Don't we really tell Steve?" The glamorous Agent Carter asked a little unwillingly.
"He'll know, but not now." Chen Mo shook his head helplessly, "Okay, let's talk about business." ”
The night before the experiment, after Chen Mo and Dr. Erskine's explanation, the colonel and Carter also realized for the first time the hidden dangers brought by the super soldier program, once the experiment is successful, many big people will be crazy to get this kind of power, maybe even the president, at that time, with the power in the hands of Colonel Phillips, it will be difficult to keep the serum.
Once the serum falls into the hands of careerists, the consequences will be devastating, and the whole world will be shaken in the face of an invincible army of super soldiers.
If the targets of the enhancement are not rigorously tested, and the bullies, criminals, and terrorists are strengthened, when the time comes, a group of uncontrolled super soldiers will bring great chaos and destruction to the world, and countless civilians may lose their lives as a result.
Therefore, the serum must not be handed over, this powerful force that is enough to change the world must be controlled in the hands of righteous people.
In the end, they decided to follow Chen Mo's suggestion and let Dr. Erskine fake his death during the experiment, so as to end the Super Soldier Project.
Just in case, Colonel Phillips even arranged for a "spy" himself, and if Hydra did not act, then this "spy" would complete their plan in place of Hydra.
As a genius inventor, Howard Stark's ability is undoubted, and as an important member of the Strategic Science Reserve, he can be trusted, so Carter talked to him long before the experiment, and he agreed with everyone's ideas and was willing to join in.
As for Steve, Chen Mo understands this simple child, he is not very good at concealing it, and it is easy for people to see the flaws, so he simply let him be kept in the dark first to confuse those politicians.
Anyway, in a few months, he will join the Strategic Science Reserve again, and then everything will be logical and not arouse suspicion.
So, after the turmoil passed, the five of them got together again.
