33. Banner's choice
"I see......"
Hearing Dr. Banner's account of the past, Ash nodded thoughtfully.
"So your main goal now is to get out of your own side and try to return to a normal life, right?"
Hearing Ash's words, Banner on the side nodded earnestly. But how funny he looks now. Because he has been on the run, he now looks very sloppy, probably because he hasn't slept well for a while, his eye sockets are deep, and his eyelids are a little swollen. His face was dirty and dusty, his beard was like a weed on the edge of a riverbank, and his clothes had already been crushed into strips of rags from his transformation into the Hulk. If it weren't for the fact that McRae put the Mexican cloak on his body on the way here, it is estimated that his small belly would have been exposed...... On the contrary, the quality of his pants was good, except for some notches that were blown out by artillery fire, at least the elastic band at the waist was fine.
"That's impossible." After hearing Banner's naΓ―ve thoughts, Ash on the side shook his head with some pity. This is somewhat incomprehensible to Banner, who has always looked at the world as a scholar.
Seeing this, Ash explained, "You should also be aware of the power of the Hulk in your body, and any country that gets this serum will put all its energy into researching this serum...... Even if it's only a third of the Hulk's effect, it can easily have an invincible army. Therefore, even if you drive out all the power of the Hulk in your body, it will be useless. Because even if there is only hope the size of a fingernail, they will never let it go. Although slicing or something, the life of a normal person is far away from you as early as the moment you receive gamma rays. β
After a pause, Ash shrugged his shoulders and continued, "It's better to say that if you had expelled the Hulk in your body, you would have been captured by the army by now. β
After hearing Ash's words, Banner on the side frowned. Obviously, he was aware of the problem, but he was a little reluctant to admit it. Now in the eyes of the military, Banner is already synonymous with Hulk, and Hulk is already part of Banner. Even if Banner really drove out the Hulk, with the current attitude of the military, he would not release Banner......
"What's more, if I'm not mistaken, Hulk killed a lot of people, right?" Ash leaned back in his chair and crossed his legs and said, "Not to mention the economic and human losses of soldiers in uniform, tanks and other things, the fighting in New York City alone has affected many innocent civilians. As a scholar who has nothing to rely on, how do you plan to face the pressure of public opinion from the media? In this case, I bet there isn't even a consortium company willing to fund your research grants. β
"Then what can I do......" Banner's face was also dark. He knew his current situation better than anyone else, he just didn't want to face it. When people are desperate, they always subconsciously think that they may be the lucky ones. Although I know better than anyone how difficult it is to be this lucky person. But people always want to be extraordinary.
Seeing this, it felt that the foreshadowing was almost over, and Ash also showed his fox tail.
"Actually, you can stay with us."
Hearing Ash's words, Banner on the side frowned hesitantly. Then he lowered his head with a solemn face. After a brief understanding, he also knew that the group of people in front of him was definitely not ordinary people. In other words, ordinary people would not open a coffee shop in the no-man's land around Route 66, and they would not be able to snatch themselves from the military. Coupled with what Hela had just said, Banner even suspected that they might not even be earthlings...... At least not like Hela.
"At what cost?" Banner looked at Ash in front of him hesitantly.
Hearing Banner's words, Ash slapped the table excitedly.
"Beautiful! I just like to talk to smart people! Lowering his hand, Ash stood up and walked in front of Banner, his eyes glinting with an almost substantial glint. Have you ever heard of the Deadgame Gang? β
Hearing this, Banner fell into a brief silence.
The Dead Game Gang, for ordinary people, naturally has not heard much. But for American science and technology workers, it can be said that it is thunderous...... Or not only the United States, but also the whole world, the Dead Gang has a great reputation in the scientific research community...... For no other reason, this group of outlaws didn't even bother to use commercial spies, and directly acted as commercial robbers. Bombing trains, kidnappings, robberies...... They've used almost every means they can think of. For a scholar, Banner has a natural rejection of the Deadgame. In the scientific research community, the reputation of the Dead Gang is also notorious......
But now except for the Deadgamers...... There doesn't seem to be much of an alternative.
Thinking so, finally, Banner sighed. Then he looked at Ash in front of him and said, "Can you suppress the Hulk?" β
Hearing this, there was silence for a moment, and Ash on the side raised his head and scratched his head in some distress. A clean face was suddenly filled with irritability...... After all the calculations, he actually forgot that it was because of Hela that Banner was here...... If you can't suppress the Hulk, then everything you say now is for nothing. Even if Hulk goes berserk, there doesn't seem to be any limit on his side...... At the end of the day, Ash doesn't think Bob can be more resistant to beatings than a tank.
Seeing Ash's behavior, Bruce Banner's already wavering expression was also slightly stunned, and then he said with some confusion: "Then how did I calm down?" Isn't it because of you? β
"Nourish...... It's not because I ......," Ash said, gesturing at Hela and Ash on the side. "It's those two guys, Hulk called back......"
Hearing Ash's words, Banner also began to really focus on Ash and Hela...... But no matter what Banner thinks, Ash is fine, at least he is still wearing the pitch-black full-body armor. Hela, on the other hand, is simply wearing a black and green tight-fitting combat suit, and her slender figure is not even as thick as one of Hulk's arms.
After a pause, Banner looked at Ash helplessly and said, "I'm sorry about that......"
