502, the red giant appears (6/10)
Southwest of the United States.
In the midst of a seemingly uninhabited desert in New Mexico.
Wind and sand swept away the traces of tires on the gravel ground, masking signs of human activity.
And beneath a mound overgrown with cacti hides the entrance to a long-abandoned military base.
General Ross and Glenn Tarbert had spent a day and a night working here, where they could evade the goddamn robot's surveillance.
The base's internet network had been cut off five years earlier, and with insufficient wireless coverage to cover the underground, General Rose couldn't find a better place to hide from Ultron.
In the evening, another convoy cautiously approached the military base, the helpers hired by General Ross and the ones determined to resist Ultron.
The men cautiously joined General Ross's subordinates and entered the base, where they hid in a secret room that did not see the light of day.
"I didn't expect us to work together, I was really surprised......"
General Ross said in an indifferent tone.
Logically speaking, in such a difficult time, it should be a blessing to have someone to give him charcoal.
But despite this, General Ross did not seem very enthusiastic about the guest sitting across from him.
At this time, Glenn Tarbert was also squinting at the guy who had rushed to help, because this guy looked very strange.
He was a strange deformity, and his whole body resembled a stunted pumpkin.
His head was huge, at least eight to ten times the size of a normal person's head, but his body had shrunk to the level of a toddler, so at first glance, it looked as if there was only one head in his body.
"With such a big head, this guy must be very smart." - Glenn Tarbert pondered quietly.
At this time, the big head smiled and said: "Oh, General Ross, I didn't expect us to cooperate, after all, you are a high-ranking general, and I am a notorious businessman." ”
"Not a businessman, it's a criminal, Murdoch." General Ross corrected, "You AIM have done a lot of notorious things...... It's ridiculous that even Hydra couldn't stand your evil practices and terminated the relationship with you......"
"No, actually, we gave up on Hydra on our own initiative." Murdoch laughed and said, "The Hydra people are too rigid to keep up with my advanced pace." ”
"Say whatever you want, Hydra is dying anyway, and no one can stand up and contradict you." General Ross said, "But Murdoch, I advise you not to be clever in front of me. ”
"Haha, General Ross, that's funny to say. You were dismissed from your post by Ultron last night, but now you are still talking to me in the tone of a general, and you can see that you really don't want to be a general......
Bang!
General Ross slammed his fist on the table and asked, "What did you say?" Do you have to say it again? ”
Murdoch laughed: "Oh, it's so mighty, the general is really majestic." ”
Then the smile on his big face disappeared in an instant, replaced by a sympathetic expression.
"It's a pity, it's a pity, you're nothing now. Ultron has taken over the country and removed you from office, General Ross, you have nothing left now, what right do you have to lose your temper? ”
"You say I'm a criminal? What about criminals? Criminals are also stronger than you! At least Ultron didn't remove me from my position, nor did it take away my resources......"
"And I'm one of the few people on Earth who has the IQ to rival Ultron, isn't that why you asked me to come here?"
General Ross took a deep breath, he knew Murdoch was right.
Even if he looks down on Murdoch and Pioneer Technology again, he must join forces with people like Murdoch in extraordinary times.
Taking a deep breath, General Ross showed his ability to bend and stretch.
"Murdoch, I think I need to apologize to you, I didn't just show an attitude of welcoming allies."
A smile appeared on Murdoch's face: "That's right, General Ross, in front of the mighty Goofy and Ultron, we little people can only huddle together to keep warm......"
"So what do we do next?" Glenn Tarbert next to him was a little breathless, and hurriedly asked, "Do we have a chance to defeat Goofy and Ultron?" Our National ...... Will it be possible to get back to the way it was before? ”
"Absolutely! Of course. Murdoch smiled and said, "Don't worry, as long as you follow my plan, our country will soon return to its original state......"
After the big head said this, a sly gaze flashed in his eyes.
This guy doesn't care if America can go back to the way it was, he has his own calculations.
"So, what do we do first?" General Ross asked.
"First step?" Murdoch thought for a moment, "It's simple, don't you have the blood of the Hulk?" If my message is correct, you've imprisoned the Hulk for almost a year. ”
"That's right, I have a lot of his blood here." General Ross said.
"That's easy, I'll help you get stronger first." Murdoch said.
"What?" General Ross was stunned for a moment and asked, "You want to use Hulk blood on me?" ”
"Of course, how can you be a mortal like you now and stand up to Goofy and Ultron? I've got to make you stronger...... "Murdoch said, "What?" General Ross, don't you dare to accept such a mutation? Are you not willing to make sacrifices for your country? ”
"Of course not." General Ross hesitated for a moment, but finally made a decision, "Then let's do it." ”
"Sure enough, it's General Thunderbolt, it's happy enough." Murdoch smiled, got up and pointed in the direction of the lab, "Please." ”
————————
Two hours later.
A faltering General Ross walked out of the laboratory with the help of the nurse.
Although he can't stand on his feet right now, he feels like he's in very good shape.
"General......" Glenn Tarbert hurriedly greeted him and asked in a low voice, "How do you feel?" ”
"It's very comfortable......," General Ross said, "and I seem to have infinite power......
"I've improved the way you mutate, and you should be more capable than Bruce Banner now." At this time, Murdoch's voice came from not far away, and he still had a pistol in his hand.
"Oh, Murdoch, you're a talented man." General Ross said with a smile.
"I don't deny it." Murdoch shamelessly admitted, "But now, General Ross, it's time to test the results." ”
Speaking of which, he suddenly fired a shot at General Ross.
Bang!
The sound of gunfire echoed through the narrow hallway, shaking everyone's eardrums.
"Oh!"
Glenn Tarbert was startled and quickly flashed away.
The bullet hit General Ross in the chest with precision.
But in this instant, General Ross's body suddenly began to swell and become larger, and the clothes on his body were directly burst by him!
Not only that, but General Ross's skin turned an angry red with a bloody glow.
Spurred on by Murdoch's bullets, General Ross completed his first transformation, at which point he looked very similar to the Hulk, except that his skin was red.
"It's ...... Red-red-red...... Red Giant?! ”
Glenn Tarbert stammered in fright, looked up at General Ross and said.
And if the Red Giant and the Hulk are the same species, then at this time, is the Red Giant going to start attacking indiscriminately?!
However, just as Glenn Tarbert was about to escape, General Rose, who had transformed into a red giant, sneered.
"Don't panic, kid, I won't hurt you."
"What?" Glenn was shocked that General Ross's consciousness was still there!
At this time, Murdoch smirked and said, "This is my improvement on the mutation, General Ross, even if you transform into the Red Giant, you can still maintain your sanity...... That's a lot better than Bruce Banner, isn't it? ”
