In the early morning, Manhattan is not as quiet and lazy as dawn, and the bustling streets are already full of people, with all kinds of transportation flowing endlessly, some people hurrying to skyscrapers with briefcases and coffee in hand, and some people smoking cigarettes and rubbing fluffy hair to the high-rent box apartments.

In such a modern metropolis, the boundary between day and night has long been blurred, and the sunrise and sunset are just a landscape with no other meaning.

Rosho walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and gently pulled back the curtain covering the entire glass, not far away from the misty Hudson River, diagonally opposite the landmark building of Manhattan, Stark Industries.

"This apartment isn't bad, right?" Tony Stark's voice came from behind Luo Xiu, "You can walk to work in five minutes, and you don't need to commute to and from work every day, this is the life that many people dream of." ”

"Not bad, indeed." Luo Xiu nodded with satisfaction, "But you don't have to bother so much, I can live in the laboratory." ”

"Xiu, the minimum quality of life must be there, and a stylish life will significantly improve your work status." Stark, who was sitting on the sofa, crossed Erlang's legs, "Many people like to associate scholars with ascetics, thinking that only by compressing desires and working hard can they move forward on the path of truth, but in my opinion this is pure nonsense, if you want a hen to lay good eggs, you have to give her the most comfortable nest to sleep in, eat the most exquisite food, and listen to some high-grade symphony." ”

With that, Stark snapped his fingers.

The apartment was filled with violent rock music, and Rohew's ears began to ring from the excitement.

"So Mr. Stark, I'm a layder?" Luo Xiu laughed and teased.

"You know I'm just making an analogy, and I don't mean anything about you." Stark explained.

In order to avoid the deafening rock music in the room, Luo Xiu hurriedly grabbed his coat and patted Stark on the shoulder: "Let's go, Mr. Stark, call the others to the laboratory, Agent Coulson will send some of the remains of the frost giants over today, I have to study these vicious-looking monsters carefully." ”

"I'm not interested in anatomy, maybe Fitz would want to study this ugly alien." Stark said with a look of disgust.

"Fitz isn't good at biology either, so it would be nice if Jenma was still around." Luo Xiu said regretfully.

"It's a pity that Zhenma was taken to Kama Taj by the Ancient One, and she successfully transformed from a scientific researcher to a witch." Stark laughed and said, "But to be honest, it's still witches who are cooler, and by the way, I also thought of a name for her - Thunder Witch, what do you think?" ”

"Hmm......" Luo Xiu was noncommittal, "let's go to the laboratory first." ”

——————

At half past eight in the morning, all the members of the Avengers research team gathered in Stark Building, and Tony Stark provided the research team with an underground laboratory with a construction area of 517 square meters, which was dedicated to studying the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, the Ice Corpse Virus, and the Jotunheim.

Half an hour later, the ancient one's master Mo Du sent the corpse of a frost giant to the laboratory, Kama Taj's space magic is born to prepare for logistics, and one day in the future, if the universe is peaceful, the mages will definitely make a lot of money by developing side jobs.

Luo Xiu decided to start researching the Frost Giant and the Ice Corpse Virus first, although there is no news of Nick Fury and Hawkeye from S.H.I.E.L.D., it is still necessary to develop antibodies to the Ice Corpse Virus in advance.

However, the lack of talents in the field of biology in the scientific research team gave Luo Xiu a headache.

"Mr. Stark, can you hire a couple of creatures to come over? The subject of the Ice Corpse Virus is extremely difficult, and I need help. ”

"No problem, I happen to know a few young talents who have made great achievements in the field of biology." Stark said with a laugh.

Before the helper invited by Stark arrived, Luo Xiu first teamed up with Fitz to dissect the remains of the frost giant, and Fitz gagged several times in the process, and Luo Xiu almost couldn't hold on, biological research requires not only erudite knowledge, but also strong psychological quality.

After a "desperate struggle", Luo Xiu and Fitz finally succeeded in decomposing the Frost Giant and extracting a certain amount of his body cells, while Luo Xiu compared the Frost Giant's body cells with the Ice Corpse Virus to understand the characteristics of the Ice Corpse Virus.

According to Luo Xiu's preliminary research, the Ice Corpse Virus is a tiny particle that can multiply itself indefinitely, and these tiny particles have the unique ability to forcibly refrigerate with considerable efficacy.

From the perspective of thermodynamics in earth science, temperature represents the intensity of the thermal motion of the molecules of the object, the temperature of the substance depends on the kinetic energy of its molecules, and the microscopic meaning of refrigeration is to reduce the kinetic energy of particles.

The tiny particles of the ice corpse virus have a kind of energy radiation similar to light waves, which can exert extreme pressure on atoms at the microscopic level.

When an atom moves in a light radiation with a frequency slightly lower than the atomic transition energy level difference and propagates in opposite directions, the atom tends to absorb photons in the opposite direction of the atom's motion due to the Doppler effect, while the probability of absorption of photons traveling in the same direction as the atom is smaller, and the absorbed photons will emit spontaneously isotropically. In this process, on average, the net effect of the two-way optical radiation of the ice corpse virion is to produce a damping force opposite to the direction of the atom's motion, thereby slowing down the movement of the atoms and producing a strong refrigeration.

This is similar to the principle of the "laser cooling method" in Earth's thermodynamics, which pursues absolute zero, but is more efficient, so that the Frost Giant can cause the temperature to plummet in a short period of time, and even condense ice blades in the palm of his hand.

Figuring out the refrigeration principle of the Jotunheim people and the ice corpse virus, Luo Xiu benefited a lot.

"Dissecting this alien will at least make a qualitative leap forward in the refrigeration industry on Earth." Luo Xiu said half-jokingly.

"Hopefully, the refrigerator made this way won't be infected with the ice corpse virus...... Fitz said with a wry smile.

However, refrigeration is only the most superficial effect of the Ice Corpse Virus, and the more terrifying ability of the Ice Corpse Virus is that it can confuse a person's mind.

It is only natural that people infected with the Ice Corpse Virus after death are instinctively aggressive, but according to the Captain's description and the surveillance footage provided by Agent Hill, Hawkeye and Nick Fury were infected with the Ice Corpse Virus while they were alive, and they did completely abnormal actions while they were fully conscious, which means that their consciousness seems to have been manipulated, which is far from being explained by the movement of microscopic particles.

In the case of the Ice Corps virus, research seems to have just begun.
