233, Tom's ability (5th update)

Reed's views echo Goofy's, and he agrees that it's time for a change.

Especially when he knows the rest of the story, and knows that New York is about to usher in an unprecedented catastrophe, he must let himself, his friends, colleagues, and neighbors live in this world.

Thinking of this, Goofy couldn't help but look at Tom Cooper, who was undergoing a psychological evaluation under Susan's guidance, and it was no accident that this Inhuman was targeted.

"Have you ever wondered why Tom was kidnapped?"

Goofy asked coldly, and Reed and Ben were still discussing the fire-breathing armor in Old Bridge Town.

Hearing Gao Fei's question, the two of them quickly turned their faces.

"What?" Ben was confused.

"You are asking, why was Tom kidnapped?" Reed repeated the question of flying high on one side.

"Yes." Goofy nodded.

Reed thought for a moment, "The people who kidnapped Tom must have taken a fancy to his superpowers, and these people must need his superpowers very much...... Tom's superpowers are twofold - one is to detonate explosives, and the other is to observe the flow of energy on any individual. ”

"The first superpower doesn't mean much, and there are so many tools that can detonate flammable and explosive substances that it is...... In this way, what they need is Tom's second superpower. Reed was quick to draw conclusions.

"That's right, it's the second superpower, the kidnappers need Tom to help them observe the flow of energy in the individual." Goofy nodded.

He had actually figured this out yesterday, and Tom's ability was a miracle skill.

"What's the use of this ability? Why does it feel like a waste......" said the stone man bluntly.

Reed suddenly said: "Ben, you are wrong, this ability is not wasted...... An adult man's energy flow is about 2,700 kcal per day, and that of an adult woman is 1,800, and Tom can accurately observe this data. ”

"That's all...... Function? The stone man looked disdainful, "I still think this ability is a waste......"

Reed straightened his forehead, you use your brain to think that you will die!

"Ben, Tom can monitor the data of normal people, and he can also monitor the data of superpowers, and the number of superpowers' daily body energy flow is far beyond that of normal people - that is, Tom only needs to look at it to determine whether a person is a superpower or an ordinary person!"

"My God!" Ben finally realized, "I see! Tom is a walking superpower detector! Just take this kid and find out the superpowers of the whole New York for you in minutes! ”

Goofy smiled and nodded, "Now you know why Tom was kidnapped, right?" I suspect he's been targeted when he mutated a month ago, but the kidnapping plan wasn't implemented until a few days ago. ”

"No wonder these people want to kidnap Tom, with Tom they can find other superpowers......," Reed said, "so there are already many organizations secretly attacking superpowers, and the superpowers are in a dangerous situation." ”

"That's right." Goofy nodded, "That's why the superpowers have to stand up and gather together to speak out. Hiding in the shadows not only fails to protect this special group, but also allows organizations with ulterior motives to persecute them unknowingly......"

"After the implementation of the registration law, any organization with ulterior motives that attempts to attack the superpowers must take into account the public opinion of the society and the resistance of other superpowers."

……

At this point, Tom has completed Susan's psychological evaluation of him, and the results do not seem to be particularly optimistic, which means that Tom will have to undergo psychological treatment for the next period of time.

Reed hurriedly stepped forward to encourage Tom, and then took the opportunity to ask Tom about his superpowers.

"By the way, Tom, how different is the flow of energy from our superpowers compared to ordinary people?"

"Very big." Tom explained earnestly, "It's a world of difference, the normal energy flow of superpowers is generally between 100 and 500 times that of ordinary people, and this number increases exponentially when using abilities...... For example, Mr. Richards, your normal energy flow is 300 times that of the average man. ”

"Why is that?" Susan asked curiously, "But we don't eat that much more than ordinary people, do we?" ”

"It's not just about the amount of energy intake, it's also about the energy utilization." Reed easily figured it out.

"For example, if you use the same amount of the same substance, you use its chemical energy, such as burning gasoline, burning wood...... Then the energy it releases is finite, but if you harness its nuclear energy, then the energy it releases will be much greater than the chemical energy......"

"Because of the difference in utilization, the energy released by the same amount of matter is also different."

Susan suddenly realized: "I see. ”

This goes straight to the point: "So, you only need to look at it to know if a person is a superpower?" ”

Tom smiled shyly, "Theoretically, that's right. ”

"Then how many times my energy flow is normal to a normal person?" Ben asked eagerly.

"Yours is 120 times more than normal." Tom was blunt.

"What?" Ben was immediately unconvinced, "Reid has 300 times, why am I only 120 times?" But my strength is much greater than his! The block is also much bigger than him! ”

Tom shrugged: "I don't know, Officer Goofy is almost 500 times over, and Miss Storm is 230 times ......"

"What ......"

The stone man originally thought that he was the one with the most energy flow among these people, but he didn't expect to be ranked first from the bottom.

Reed hurriedly smiled and persuaded: "Everyone's ability is different, and the amount of energy flow is naturally different, but I think the amount of energy flow does not represent a person's strength, and those with more energy flow are not necessarily stronger, and those with less energy flow are not necessarily weak." ”

Gao Fei also patted the stone man on the shoulder: "I think so too." ”

Still, he wanted Tom to help him see how much energy was flowing in Carrie......

At this time, Reed suddenly had an idea and made a suggestion.

"Friends, I have a bold idea...... Since Tom can detect the approximate range of energy flow in the superpowers' bodies, I can use this data to create a device that covers the entire city of New York City, so that we can get an early warning when an abnormal superpower appears. ”

Hearing this, Goofy immediately became intrigued.

If this instrument is really built, it will be a big improvement for the security of New York.

Don't say anything about the Zetarian army at that time, as long as Loki dares to take the lead in New York, he will be arrested directly! Want to open a wormhole over New York? Pass me first!
