"Whew~!"

Miami, inside a basement at the Killian base. At this time, there was no one else in this basement but Killian. Killian was here alone because he was going to experiment with some of his own speculations that he didn't want the other heat to see.

However, in order to prevent accidents, Killian also specially prepared a few new desperate viruses for himself.

When everything was ready, Killian held out his hand to a steel plate more than 1 centimeter thick that lay in the middle of the laboratory.

And as his hands slowly dismantled the steel plate, Killian's hands slowly turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye. Unlike before, Killian was only able to mobilize these desperate viruses in his body when he was emotional. But today, Killian has indeed mobilized this change of the desperate virus in his body by virtue of his own will, not only in the case of strong emotional fluctuations.

And for the fear of the changes in the desperate virus in the past, Killian no longer cares about this. On the contrary, his will is still accelerating this change. At that time, Killian was deeply afraid of this change because he knew that if the desperate virus was allowed to change, he would explode.

But after Killian realized that the warmth of the Desperate Virus was not a hazard to himself, but a weapon, he knew what to do. He wants to master this power, master this superhuman power.

And just before, after Killian heard Maya Hansen say about the situation of the Desperate Virus, Killian knew that if he couldn't control this force, then in the near future, he might die on this force.

And during this time, Killian discovered that with his usual conscious exercise, slowly, he could really control part of the ability of the desperate virus in his body. Just like now, with his own will, his hands began to reddened and fever with the effect of the desperate virus.

But in the process of redness and heat, Killian could feel that this time the operation of the desperate virus was under his control. Although he was still very busy, he was already able to smoothly control the desperate viruses in his body.

And in this case, even if the energy value of the Desperate Virus in his body starts to rise, he will not explode. As long as he can get that heat out of his body before it explodes.

The moment the steel plate, which was more than 1 centimeter thick, came into contact with Killian's reddened hands, the part where it came into contact with Killian was like ice cream meeting a soldering iron, and it quickly began to melt.

You must know that the melting point of ordinary steel is around 1500 degrees, and if you want to melt steel at the moment of contact, the temperature of Killian's hands must more than double, reaching a high temperature of at least 3000 degrees.

And in such a terrifying temperature, although Killian's eyes have become red and shiny, he can still maintain the appearance of normal human hands.

"I never found out that you were so powerful!"

Killian looked first at the two red-hot holes in the steel plate, then at his own hands. He could feel that after mobilizing the energy of the Desperate Virus, his strength had also increased a lot.

Then Killian reached out and grabbed a hole in the iron plate in front of him that he had just melted. Then with a force, the steel plate, which was 1 meter wide and 2 meters high, and was more than 300 catties, was lifted by Killian with one hand.

And when it comes to the thickness of this steel plate, Killian's first reaction is that it is light, too light. Killian felt like he was holding the steel plate weighing more than 300 pounds as if he was holding a cardboard of the same size, no, it was a feeling that was easier than holding the cardboard before.

Killian then took the edge of the plate and tossed it down, and it slammed into the wall of the plate like a dart. Killian then looked at his hands that had returned to their original shape, smiled, and then picked up the coat next to him and put it on himself.

Today's test has made it clear to Killian that the Desperate Virus is not as fatally flawed as they thought. On the contrary, this is not a flaw, but where the Desperate Virus is really powerful.

However, regarding this discovery of the desperate virus, Killian will not choose to announce it for the time being. For him, it would be more beneficial for him to make them feel that he is still plagued by the Desperate Virus than to let others know that he has overcome the shortcomings of the Desperate Virus.

After all, Killian knew very well that he was Hydra now, but Hydra was not him.

"Seal this basement and don't let anyone in. Also, call Eric to meet me! After leaving the basement, Killian spoke to the Pioneer security personnel he had called to guard the door.

······

"Sir, are you looking for me?!" Not long after Killian returned to his office, Eric came over.

"Eric, how long have you been with me?" Killian gave Eric a deep look, then suddenly asked.

"It's been almost 10 years, sir." Listening to Killian's question, Eric replied with a confused expression. He didn't know why Killian asked this question suddenly, but he did the math, he had been at Pioneer since he was injured and retired, and now he counted the time, and it was almost 10 years.

"Can I trust you, Eric?" After Eric answered, Killian asked, staring him in the eye.

"I swear by my life." Listening to Killian's words, Eric knew that he probably had some secret mission to give him. Knowing that a secret mission like this can be dangerous, Eric knows he's the best fit.

"Prepare to inject the third generation of the Desperate Virus, and I'll teach you how to control it."

That's right, Killian intends to hand over the means of controlling the desperate virus to Eric. Killian felt that Eric, who had been with him for almost 10 years, should be trustworthy, and he also needed such a strong subordinate.

But knowing Hydra's might, Killian wasn't sure if his right-hand man was loyal to him. But for the sake of Eric having been with him for almost 10 years, Killian decided to believe him.

So in front of Eric, Killian directly reached out and pinched the metal pen holder on his desk into molten iron.

"It's like this."

Looking at the puddle of molten iron flowing on the ground, Eric was honestly stunned for a moment. In fact, when Killian asked him to inject the Desperate Virus just now, Eric thought that Killian now needed to use the 2nd generation of Desperate Virus Warriors to start experiments.

After all, compared to ordinary people, people who have been injected with the second-generation desperate virus can already be regarded as a little superman. Eric felt that even compared to the Captain America wearing the Star-Spangled Banner, his physical fitness was not weak.

But after Killian showed off his powers, Eric knew it was time for them to really rise... It's coming.
