Chapter Seventy-Four: Alex
Soon Chen's three-man team returned to Queens from the tunnels, and the Earthwalkers set out to retrieve Killian's body. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 The location of the info meeting is still the pharmaceutical company where Winston was born, which has now been transformed into the headquarters of the Zombie Army, and out of a certain bad taste in his previous life, Chen Lu renamed this pharmaceutical company as the new Ambrera Company.
New Ambrera & Medical Laboratory
Alex took a little blood from Chen Lu's body and put it under the microscope to look closely, he held his chin and frowned, looking quite distressed.
"Master, your current body is completely different from the one I thought I had made for you. The fusion of the mutant healing factor and the zombie virus did produce some kind of mutation that was so accidental that it couldn't be replicated, and I really couldn't figure out how to use it. ”
"Really?" Chen Lu is not surprised, in the Marvel worldview, Deadpool's mutated self-healing factor has always been non-replicable, and it is quite rare to be fused by the zombie virus in his body like this, and he doesn't expect it to be used on other zombies.
Since the mutated self-healing factor is irreproducible, it means that if this body dies completely, Alex will not be able to create the same body for Chen Lu to use, that is, it can no longer be used as a sacrifice that can be discarded at will. However, its unique super-speed regeneration and death resistance, two powerful self-healing abilities, also make this body's survivability stronger than Chen Lu's body, but it is not too worried that it will be easily destroyed by the enemy.
In the end, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages.
Watching Alex skillfully use various medical equipment and scientific instruments also made Chen Lu have a new question, although Chen Lu has known Alex for two days, and he has been busy with other things and has no time to understand him deeply, today is the first time that Chen Lu has become interested in Alex's past.
"Alex, you seem to have a fairly high level of medical research knowledge, is that also the ability given to you by the virus?"
"No, master, I got my degree in genetics from Columbia University before I was infected and worked as a researcher at Gentek, and medical research was my job."
Gentek? Kind of familiar, wait!
"Alex, is your full name Alex Mercer?" Chen Lu exclaimed a little uncalmly.
"Yes, master." Alex replied in the affirmative.
Chen Lu hurriedly continued to ask, "Then have you heard of the word 'black light'?" ”
"Well, before the outbreak of the virus, I did receive news that the upper echelons of Gentek were going to transfer me to a project codenamed 'Black Light', but before I officially participated in this project, I was infected by the zombie virus."
Sure enough, this is no coincidence! Now standing in front of Chen Lu is Alex Mercer, the protagonist of the game "Torture and Killing"! It's just that at present, he has not been infected into a monster by the black light virus, and he has not even joined the "black light" project that will completely change his fate, and he is just appearing here as a medical researcher who knows nothing for the time being.
Before the crossing, Chen Lu heard that Marvel intended to acquire the adaptation rights of "Torture and Killing" and adapted its protagonist Alex Mercer into a Marvel character, but there was no follow-up news, but he didn't expect Alex to really appear in this Marvel world. It's just that before his "heroic" deeds happened, he was infected by the zombie virus and became Chen Lu's assistant.
However, since Gentek and Alex have appeared, this also means that there is another virus material in this world that is very worthy of Chen Lu to devour evolution-the black light virus!
This powerful virus, which is much more domineering than the desperate virus, will be the goal of Chen Lu's next evolution.
Suddenly, a strong black man opened the door of the laboratory and walked in, this person was the mutant infected Tuwalker who was used by Chen Lu as a delivery courier. As soon as he entered the room, he half-knelt down and saluted Chen Lu, "Master, Killian and the Desperate Virus stock solution have been delivered to Tony's house. ”
Yes, Chen Lu arranged for a tube of the Desperate Virus stock solution for Tony to study, and also gave him Killian's submission. The reason why Killian degenerated from a young man with three good intentions to the villain who controlled the scientist organization AIM was caused by Tony's unintentional faux pass and broken promise. As the saying goes, the bell still needs to be tied to the bell, and since Tony was able to have such a big impact on Killian's life trajectory back then, he must still occupy a very important position in Killian's heart now.
Anyway, Chen Lu gave the order, and it was his business whether Tony wanted to coerce or lure or put his heart into his heart, regardless of whether he sold his body or his soul, as long as he could get Killian.
[You have submitted the zombie villain: Aldridge Killian.] The character will not be able to disobey any orders you give from the spirit link unless its consciousness is completely dead. 】
It's so fast, Tony, didn't you really sell your flesh・・・・・・
In any case, in short, Chen Lu is another researcher who has mastered black technology, presumably Killian will provide considerable help to the research of the Desperate Virus, and can also be used as a combat unit if necessary, which can be called a very good chess piece.
In addition, his status as the leader of AIM, an organization of scientists, is also of considerable use to Chen.
"Very well, stand down and get back to your business." Chen Lu waved his hand to let the earthwalker leave the laboratory, then stood up and picked up a tube of the Desperate Virus stock solution, turned to Alex and asked:
"Alex, how long will it take for the zombie virus to devour the Desperation virus to complete its evolution."
Alex shook his head and replied, "I'm not sure, the length of time it takes for the zombie virus to evolve depends on the virus it consumes, and I can't predict what the situation will be. ”
That's troublesome, according to Chen Lu's estimation, there will be something that needs to be busy tomorrow morning, if it scabs over for three days and three nights like the normal desperate virus transformation, then the situation will become very troublesome. It's unlikely, but you have to be careful.
"Alright then, it's okay to use my body for virus devouring evolution." After thinking about it for a while, Chen Lu proposed this expedient measure.
"Yes, so that you can evolve into the mother of the virus, and the main body can also gain the ability to devour the virus of desperation. Due to the existence of mutated self-healing factors, the body that received the injection at the same time may also have some special mutations that are not present in the body. ”
"That's fine, let's start the injection." After listening to Alex's explanation, Chen Lu gave Alex the stock solution of the desperate virus and lay down on the research bed in the center of the laboratory.
