Chapter 0080: Another Acquaintance
Stephanie's target is not Rollo himself, but the Black Punishment Greatsword, which is something to ponder.
In the less than three years since the Black Punishment Greatsword was born from the original weird boulder, there are not many people who have seen the Great Sword, but in fact, there are not a lot of people. After all, in the more than two years that he played the role of a 'cultural relics thief', Rollo appeared dressed as a big sword. With Rollo's 'crimes' again and again, his outfit has appeared on the tables of local police, serious crime teams, criminal police, Interpol, FBI and even S.H.I.E.L.D. everywhere. Then he escaped from Black Widow once, and saved von Sdrok from S.H.I.E.L.D. and those superheroes, and his image of coming and going freely with the Black Punishment Sword was added to S.H.I.E.L.D.'s database. Well, of course, Stark's intelligent butler Jarvis also kept a copy there, but this seems to be insignificant for the time being, anyway, Stark can't collude with Hydra. In this way, Stephanie, who has never seen the Black Punishment Greatsword with her own eyes, can still learn about the existence of this weapon from many sources.
Then there is the biggest problem: whether it is the police, criminal police, detectives, or those of S.H.I.E.L.D., or even Stark, a genius and superhero with an explosive IQ, they don't care too much about the black punishment sword, but blame Rollo's combat power more on Rollo's own ability, why can Stephanie Malik find out the truth and know that most of Rollo's strength is in weapons? She had given up dozens of mutants in favor of the Black Punishment Greatsword, which neither the most intelligent (Stark) nor the far-sighted (S.H.I.E.L.D.) people paid much attention to. Why?!
There must have been something wrong with it, and I didn't think it was ......
While Rollo was thinking this, Stephanie returned, and the two researchers who had spoken before took the initiative to appear in front of him whose neck was inconvenient to turn.
"Tell me, where is your black-handled greatsword hidden? Is your real superpower spatial? Stephanie asked, looking completely in a bad mood.
It's no wonder that so many brain cells have died, and what they want to get is right in front of them, but they can't get it, which is the most uncomfortable.
Of course, Rollo has no obligation to solve the other party's doubts and make the other party comfortable. Instead of answering Stephanie's question, he looked curiously at the researcher who had followed her.
This one of these guys looks very familiar......
"These are the two gentlemen who checked me inside and out before?"
Rollo asked, but received no response. Stephanie just looked at him coldly, while one of the two researchers looked cautious, and the other—the familiar one—looked at Rollo with a complicated look of curiosity, excitement, hesitation, sarcasm, and so on. However, the ridicule here is not directed at Rollo, but at the former researcher.
It's funny.
No one answered, and Rollo didn't mind, and continued: "I'll just say, I'm hurt like this, isn't it too trivial to use this coffin-like thing to lock me up and only show my head." It turns out that this thing has the effect of scanning the body, and it is still a cell-level scan, which is really unexpected. So, is this the work of the two of you? ”
Still didn't answer, and Rollo continued: "Well, it shouldn't be you. You may be able to use it handy, but it's probably not enough to design a machine of this calibre. If the Malik family had such professionals, they would not have to lie dormant all the time, only acting as the rich man and the logistics department within Hydra. ”
It succeeded, and Rollo used these two or three sentences to successfully provoke Stephanie's anger and the dissatisfaction of the two researchers. The one who had been cautious and submissive wanted to say something, but he glanced at Stephanie out of the corner of his eye and then died down, and as for the one that Rollo was familiar with, he didn't put away the idea of retorting because Stephanie hadn't spoken yet.
"First of all, I want to correct that I invented this machine. It also has the functions of detailed analysis of body data, detection of abnormal genes, and strong binding, which I believe you have also experienced. I can tell you that there's more to it than that. In addition, I agree with the second half of your statement, if the Malik family had someone like me to serve early, their career would have been better developed. But it's not too late, because I'm here. ”
Westerners are like that, they have such and such talents, and most of them don't put them away, but tell others as much as possible, even if it makes the people around them unhappy - for example, the researcher who has been submissive under Stephanie's influence, he is very unhappy with the words of his companion next to him. And in the eyes of that companion, this was indeed a matter of course, because he did have the ability.
By the way, this 'outspoken' guy, it's time to tell me how familiar he is. One of his distinctive features is that he has a figure that does not match his ambitions and tone at all - less than 140 centimeters tall.
Hehe, who would have thought that Bolívar Trask, who was not at odds with mutants in the movies of his previous life, and the creator of the future Sentinel Robot, would join the Malik family, which had just let go of a group of mutants! No, if Rollo hadn't confirmed his character through verbal stimulation, he would have wondered if this was just another person who happened to be about the same height.
"Dr. Trask......"
Stephanie was clearly unhappy with Trask's remarks, but Trask didn't pay much attention.
"Ms. Malik, maybe we can try out the second function of my machine."
Hearing Trask say this, Stephanie was stunned for a moment: "Doctor, are you sure?" You said that the feature was for the average person......"
"It's really for ordinary people, but it's just very suitable for the situation in front of you." Trask said. "As I told you before, this machine can activate the X gene that may be latent in the human body through a series of operations. The operation here is actually to squeeze the life potential of the target through specific techniques, so that the target's body can produce a stress response, causing it to undergo mutations that may exceed the limits of ordinary human physiological systems. In this case, he is not a mutant, but he has superpowers, and we can squeeze his life potential as well to see if he is willing to surrender that weapon. If he refuses, then his own non-ordinary body plus X genes, I would like to study whether his body is really very high, or will it collapse due to the mutation conflict of different systems. Explaining this to Stephanie, Trask changed his mind and smiled at Rollo. Hehe, this gentleman, I can tell you that the success rate of activating the X gene by squeezing the life potential is not high, and whether it is a failure to die or a successful acquisition of superpowers, the subject will go through a very, very, very painful process. And you yourself have other superpowers, it's some kind of mutation that we don't know yet, what kind of effect the double mutation will have, I'm also curious, hahaha......"
