Laboratory.

Not long after Mawson left, Howard reluctantly assembled the reinforced chamber, and the exposed wires and conduits around it raised suspicions about the experimental setup.

"Steve, get up on it!" Howard urged.

"This set of experimental devices is not mature enough, although it requires a small amount of power, but it will prolong the strengthening time, you have to be mentally prepared. The process of strengthening will promote your skeletal muscle growth, which is extremely painful and even life-threatening! Howard explained, fiddling with the instrument in his hand.

Steve could faintly hear gunshots coming from the factory not far away, and he took a deep breath, took off his shirt, and lay down in the reinforced pod.

"I'm ready, tie me tight!" He turned to Carter and Howard.

"I don't know how much it hurts, and I don't know if I'll be able to keep going, but this is the opportunity that Mawson gave his life to fight for."

"So I have no choice but to die on this or make it down!"

"Let's get started!" With that, he closed his eyes.

Steve was ready to die, and he didn't even dare to look at Carter again because he was afraid that he would back down because of it.

"Steve......"

Carter covered her mouth, but didn't let herself make a sound, she knew what decision to make when and when, and just silently tied Steve tightly, and stepped aside.

Now all she can do is trust Steve and pray for him.

Although Howard has renovated the reinforced cabin, if he is given another period of time, after a detailed investigation, the transformed reinforced cabin will definitely be safer and more stable than before.

But he didn't expect the enhancement to come so suddenly, so he didn't have a lot of confidence in the transformed experimental equipment.

But now that he was ready to send it, he put on his goggles and turned on the machine with a wrench.

Snort!

Under Howard's control, the fluid in the test tubes was injected into Steve's body, and no one noticed that in one of the test tubes, Howard was left with an undetectable trace of serum.

This serum can't even be noticed with the naked eye, but it is an important reason why Howard agreed to help!

Although he has a sense of heroism and justice, at heart, Howard is also a scientist and businessman, and he can't help but be moved by such things as fortified serums.

"Ah......h

Steve's screams of pain rang out in the lab with a blinding light, and Carter could even tell the whole process of Steve's broken vocal cords, repaired them, and then torn them again.

She bit her lip tightly and tried to stop Howard several times, but stopped with tears in her eyes.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, there was a loud banging sound outside the door of the laboratory. "The serum is mine!" And with Hodge's angry shouting!

"Don't worry, the gate is reinforced, even a super soldier can't even think of entering with his bare hands." Howard reassured.

Sure enough, although the sound outside the door was violent, it couldn't shake the iron door at all.

The experiment continued, but Steve's shouts became fainter and quieter, and there was a feeling that some of the oil lamps were running out.

"How long is it going to end? Steve: He can't hold on! Carter asked urgently.

Howard was also sweating profusely, and he didn't know much about the data of the new equipment, but now it took him more time to see the enhancement than he estimated.

"It's coming, it should be fast, hold on a little longer!" Howard could only comfort Carter like this.

At this time, Hodge, who looked like a madman outside the door, also found that he could not smash the iron door at all, he glared at the scarlet eyes and scanned the surroundings, and then noticed the car that crashed into the low house not far away.

He got into the car, ripped off the unconscious Jarvis who had been hit, and then poured the car out of the rubble, breaking a tire but not affecting the car's movement.

Hodge adjusted his direction, slammed on the accelerator with a horizontal face, and slammed into the iron door of the laboratory!

He was about to smash the iron door and break into the lab.

Having broken a tire and not having a good direction, Hodge held the steering wheel, not caring if he would be injured in the impact, and stepped on the accelerator to the end!

Just as the front of the car was about to hit the gate, Mawson jumped out of the factory with an arrow and shot at the tires.

Boom!

At the last minute, the car slid and slammed diagonally into the edge of the iron door, which was not shattered by Hodge, although the entire door was deformed. Affected by inertia, Hodge sprang out of the front windshield, and he rolled to his feet.

The shredded flesh from the wound on his face was scraped off in the roll, revealing deep white bones, but Hodge, who had already entered the madness, seemed to know, broke off a metal from the shattered car door and rushed towards Mawson with a grin.

"Troublesome bastard, why aren't you dead yet?!"

Mo Sen's heart was beating hard now, his eyes were blurry, and he fired several shots in succession, but Mo Qi's eyes were full of flaws under the rapid movement.

By the light of the moon, as soon as Mawson raised his hand, Hodge could accurately judge the direction of Mawson's shooting, so as to dodge in advance.

In just a few leaps, Hodge came to Mawson's side, his grim face like a ghost, standing tall in the shadows of the moonlight, and the metal spikes in his hands stabbed Mawson in the neck fiercely.

Mawson was now badly wounded, and although he was infused with repair fluid, he could only barely suppress the injury, and he couldn't avoid Hodge's blow.

A cruel smile appeared on Hodge's lips, and just when he thought he could penetrate Mawson's neck and kill him with one blow, a round shield appeared strangely between the two!

"Ding!"

The metal spike in Hodge's hand pierced the round shield with a soft sound, and he couldn't move an inch. Even because of the suddenness of the incident, Hodge used too much force, and the place where his right hand held the metal spike was scraped by the reaction force to create two deep wounds.

Bone is visible deep in the wound!

This shows the power of Hodge's blow just now.

"What the hell is this?"

A hint of surprise flashed across Hodge's face, and he was very sure that in the split second, Mawson suddenly had this shield in his hand.

But he only hesitated for a moment, and the pain in his hand spurred him into a frenzy again, and he switched the metal spike to his left hand and attacked wildly.

Although Mawson can protect most of his body with a shield, his speed and physical strength are much worse than Hodge's, and he quickly became tired of coping, and then Hodge's blow picked the shield away, stabbing the metal in his hand into his abdomen!

"Ho Ho ......"

Mawson fell to his knees foaming at the mouth of blood, and just as Hodge was about to twist Mawson's head, there was a shout far greater than usual in the laboratory behind him.

Unable to solve Mawson, Hodge picked up the pistol on the ground and shot several shots in succession at the fuel tank of the car in the distance.

Boom!

With a violent explosion and skyrocketing fire, the sturdy laboratory door opened.

Seeing the fire in the distance, Hodge casually dropped the pistol that shot the bullets, picked up the shield not far away, protected it in front of him, and walked towards the laboratory.

Left behind a bloodied Mosen, who did not know whether he was alive or dead.
