13. Stryker's "Legacy" [61/100]

For a base that has been established for more than 30 years and undertakes secret research missions, there is no shortage of all kinds of equipment, and at least they must be able to ensure self-sufficiency in a short period of time under the blockade of the outside world.

So Cyber's body test was completed after 1 hour, but Professor Hawkins, who was severely understaffed, said that it took at least 20 minutes to wait for the test results, so he took the opportunity to start doing something else.

For example, the most popular part is the part of receiving loot.

"Toot toot... Toot toot..."

The strange sound of a phone call ringing in Cyber's ears as he sat in Stryker's large office, using the fully encrypted intercom to contact the people he could barely remember the numbers.

It's just that 3 years have passed in the outside world, there are a lot of things and people, Dad's phone can't get through at all, and Robin's phone is also busy, until the third call, the voice that makes him worry rings.

"Hey"

Catherine sat bored at the end of the classroom at Xavier Castle, and while Tutor Auroro was lecturing, the little girl secretly picked up her mobile phone, put it to her ear, and said impatiently, "Who are you? How do you know my phone number?"

“...”

There was silence for a few seconds, and Catherine's brow furrowed, and her tone became more and more impatient,

"If you don't talk again, I'll hang up!"

"Catherine..."

The voice from there was a little trembling, but it was the little girl who was in class who reacted more violently, who suddenly stood up from her chair and shouted, "Cyber, Cyber, it's you!"

"I'm here in Canada, I don't know exactly where it is... But I'll be back to see you soon, take care of myself, wait for me, I'll be back soon. ”

Cyber's eyes were also a little sour, he didn't know what to say, and he didn't know where the hell's base was now, and he couldn't let the little girl pick him up, and most importantly, he had other things to do before going back, so he could only say a lot of vague things.

"God, it's great that you're alive... That's great. ”

Catherine's tears fell from her eyes like beads of broken thread, and she rushed out of the classroom with her phone in her arms, leaving Auroro and the other students with a bewildered expression, but considering that Catherine Hawke had always been a "problem girl" at Xavier's Talented Junior Academy, the others were not surprised.

"But speaking of which, when Catherine cries, it's really cute..."

Babi, who was sitting next to Catherine, was a little distracted and thought about some very rude things, but considering that they were all teenagers and girls who were just starting to fall in love, it was nothing more than that, the problem girl Catherine was one of the most beautiful beauties in Xavier Academy.

"Huh"

Catherine walked through the walls of Professor Charles's office in a very cool way, and the professor looked up at her, his glasses eyes full of doubts,

"Is there anything going on? Catherine?"

"My brother has something to ask you, Professor!"

Catherine handed the very cute pink phone in her hand to Professor Charles, who froze for a moment, then his face became serious, he took off his glasses, and took the phone,

"Cyber, it's me, Charles. ”

"It's like this... I just destroyed an evil base that used mutants for human experimentation,"

Standing in Stryker's office, looking at the children who were cleaning up the base and making a lot of noise under Santars' command, Cyber couldn't help but rub his forehead and said to Professor Charles,

"The worst part is that there are now more than 20 mutant children here who have been abused for several years, and they are having a miserable life, and I released them, and according to my observations, these children are in the category of those who have a lot of potential..."

This is complete nonsense, those who can be caught by Stryker to study must be mutant children with great potential, those weak chickens of the Ipsi dragon level, Stryker can't look down on them at all.

"Professor, I don't know where I am right now, and I can't always run around with some kids, so I want to ask, would you be interested in taking over?"

He smacked his mouth, "Well, by the way, get me out of this desolate hellish place." ”

Charles's expression became cold, especially when he heard the words "human trial", Catherine, who was standing in front of him, felt that even the surrounding air had turned into a substantial oppressive force, of course, this was not an illusion, at this moment, all the instructors of the entire Xavier Talent Youth Academy had Professor X's angry voice in their minds, and they immediately put down what they were doing and prepared for the sudden trip.

"Cyber, wait for me for 1 day... I'll be there by this time tomorrow at the latest. ”

The professor solemnly made a promise, and finally, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile,

"Thank you for everything you have done for this race, take care of those poor children, please. ”

He put down his phone, and there was a gentle smile on his face, he reached out and patted Catherine's head, looking at the little girl's expectant gaze, the professor nodded,

"Go, pack your things, you go with us. ”

"Yay, long live the Professor!"

Catherine screamed and rushed out of the professor's room, and even her screams of surprise could be heard through the wall, but just after Catherine left, Professor Charles's expression became indifferent again, he closed his eyes, and rarely extended his huge mental power, and after a while, he whispered, the voice had irrepressible anger,

"Nick Fury... I need an explanation!"

After making the call, Cyber happily threw the microphone aside, opened Stryker's drawer casually, and saw a black metal scroll, he curiously picked it up, twisted it a few times, it seemed to be open, he was curious about what was inside, but just as he was about to forcibly twist it open, Professor Hawkins's voice rang out.

"Don't touch it!"

"Huh?"

Cyber looked at the professor who walked in suspiciously, he was holding a stack of materials in his hand, and the latter looked at the metal scroll in his hand with palpitations, and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead,

"It's an encrypted information store, and if you force it open, it will trigger a high explosive charge that is powerful enough to destroy the office, and is usually used to store important information. ”

Hearing this, Cyber suddenly became interested, and he waved the scroll in his hand, "And what is it in here?"

"I don't know. ”

Professor Hawkins put the information in his hand in front of Cyber's eyes, and he shook his head, "This thing needs a special opening code, and it seems that Stryker is in a hurry to pull this thing down." ”

"Okay"

Cyber put the scroll aside, his eyes fell on the data, the numbers and symbols on it made him dizzy, he simply threw the data aside, crossed his hands on the table, and looked at Hawkins,

"Tell me, Professor, what's wrong with my body?"

"The problem is big, it's serious. ”

Hawkins sat in the chair across from Cyber, "Your gene chain is 90% repaired in a special catalytic process, and all those messy gene fragments have been repaired and used to strengthen your strength, agility, and physical fitness, but... The remaining 10% is still getting worse, and if you can't find a way to suppress it..."

The old professor glanced at Cyber and lowered his voice, "Your body will eventually collapse quickly, just like before. ”

"But I feel like I'm healthy!"

Cyber patted his chest, "I feel like I only have a little problem left to overcome. ”

When Hawkins heard this, he couldn't help but take off his glasses, and he sighed,

"I don't have to lie to you, Cyber, I still count on you to help me rescue my grandchildren... Because 90% of the gene chain is normal, your eventual collapse must be a sudden, like the first domino to be pushed down, and in a very short period of time, your body will completely collapse, and until the 10% chaotic gene collapse moment comes, you will always be healthy. ”

"It's a chain process, Cyber, and if we can't think of a good solution, it will come eventually. ”

Cyber silently took out a box of delicate cigars from another drawer, held it to his mouth, smoke swirled, and after a moment, he looked up,

"How much longer?"

Professor Hawkins was silent for a moment, and held out a finger, "Based on the current genetic stability, it won't be more than 1 year at most, and if you use the devouring ability many times... This time will be even shorter. ”

"I don't have to hide it from you, Professor. ”

Cyber's fingers twitched on the table, "I used Victor's serum to devour his self-healing before I got back to this state, do you think this method is feasible?"

"I see..."

Professor Hawkins realized, "No wonder you can recover so quickly, the self-healing ability of the saber-toothed tiger Victor and his brother Logan is also one of the best in the world, but... It's hard to say, Cyber, your phagocytosis is flawed, the same genes can only be enhanced, not repeated, according to you, your genetic devouring of Victor has reached the limit... However, maybe we can try another person. ”

"Logan?"

Cyber's eyes narrowed, and after a moment, he nodded, "Very well, I'll go get his blood... Now tell me what's in the base, and let me see what Stryker left me. ”

The old professor took out a small recording device from his pocket, put it in front of his eyes, put on his glasses, and whispered like an old butler,

"The most valuable thing is definitely the remaining 54kg of liquid Edman alloy, according to the price I came across, it is worth at least 200 million!"

"And then..."

"Wait, Professor, tell me more about this Edelman..."

Cyber remembered the time when he fought Yuriko, and the sharp blade on the woman's ten fingers, the sharpness and solidity, made him remember it vividly.

"Uh, okay. ”

Professor Hawkins put down the instrument in his hand and coughed lightly, "The so-called Edelman alloy, this is actually a special metal native to eastern Africa, and I don't know much about it, but I know that Stryker injected Logan into Logan's body is this kind of metal, its hardness and strength are incredible, almost beyond any metal we can find... The density is so great that once solidified, it cannot be smelted again. ”

"On the African side, some people call it "God's Gold", which means that only gods can wield it in battle, Stryker has experimented, an Edelman alloy knife can easily pierce through 200mm steel plates, and it will not be damaged in any way, in fact, once formed, it will almost never wear out. ”

As Professor Hawkins spoke, he saw that Cyber's eyes were getting brighter and brighter, and the red light made people palpitate, and he stood up abruptly and looked at Professor Hawkins,

"I remember you said that there are molds for all kinds of weapons in this base, right? Let's go, let's go and have a look!"

After saying that, he pulled Professor Hawkins to the outside of the test area, but when he saw Yuriko, who was almost tied up like silkworms by the children and was still unconscious, Cyber stopped again, pointed to the slender woman, and said to Professor Hawkins,

"I've seen her by Stryker's side, but she doesn't seem to have a mind of her own, it's like... It's like a fighting machine, what's going on? Who is this Yuriko?"

Professor Hawkins looked at the face with obvious oriental features, and he sighed,

"Well, I know... Yuriko is also one, how to say... Poor man. ”

"Tell me about it. ”

"She's Japanese, and it's said that her father was a Japanese scientist in World War II, and it's said that he studied Logan..."
