Nevada desert
Area 51
Edward X2 Air Force Base —
Area 51 is now the headquarters of the US military, and the combined size of its inland air and air bases is as many as 10 places! Of course, there is more about weapons research and development, which also includes biological genetic research and engineering, and in general, Area 51 accommodates the presence of many aspects of technology in the military field.
200 meters underground from Edward X2 Air Force Base —
The underground research institute established in 1999 is engaged in a number of research projects such as biological genes, including recombination, mutation, and evolution. During the Gulf War, in order to reduce the loss of soldiers, the United States hoped to use gene cells to study painless soldiers, which is commonly known as cyborg people.
Gene cell research is very risky, and the risks of recombination, mutation, etc. are unpredictable. At first, they experimented with animals, but the animals that were used as experimental subjects mutated, and the military spent a considerable amount of money to settle the matter, and then the United States ZF sealed the institute.
Until the outbreak of the T-virus, the ZF agency was paralyzed, and after the remnants of the military regained control of Area 51, the institute was reactivated for the purpose of studying vaccines against the T-virus.
At this moment John. Connor is at the heart of the institute, and the research project here is SSS-classified, and it is impossible to get in without Level 6 authorization, so how did John get in?
John didn't know, and he wasn't in the mood to think about anything else at the moment, because in front of him was a glass culture drum, which was filled with pale green culture fluid, and in these culture fluids was floating a person, who had test tubes inserted in his temples, arms, abdomen, chest, legs and other important parts of the body and joints, and there was an unknown liquid in the test tube that was slowly flowing into his body, his eyes were closed, obviously unconscious, his mouth was wearing a breathing mask, and with a long breath, strings of bubbles were bubbling in the culture medium.
John walked in and saw that the person in the culture medium turned out to be Zhao Xiaojie?!
"I said how it was that as soon as I arrived in Area 51, the seriously injured Jie was taken away and I don't know where to go, it turned out that he was sent here." John touched his chin and was muttering to himself, when three people walked in from outside the nanodoor, two researchers in research suits, a middle-aged man with a serious look, and a young girl with blond hair and blue eyes. The back is also a middle-aged man, he is wearing a black power suit, a big back, black sunglasses, high-waisted combat boots, how do you look like a good bird, especially the eyes hidden behind the sunglasses, people can't guess his thoughts, he is generally a man who makes people feel a calm but heavy atmosphere.
As if they didn't see John, the three of them walked straight to the cultivation of the poor, John wanted to ask something but stopped talking, the soldier who brought him in had warned him to pay attention here, what to pay attention to? He didn't know.
"How's he doing?" The man in sunglasses asked the two researchers, his voice slow and low, giving a feeling of indescribability.
The female researcher said with an endorsement: "The body surface strength is restored by 94%, the muscle lipid layer is restored by 99%, the bone and internal organs are restored by 98%, and the brain nerves are restored by 99%......"
The corners of the man in sunglasses rose slightly: "Very good, Dr. Kolo, you are the top person in this area, don't let me down, the serum of the T-virus is you." ”
The middle-aged researcher, that is, Dr. Keluo, stepped forward and looked at Zhao Xiaojie in the culture medium with the same hot eyes as the naked girl: "I never thought that someone's gene cells could be fused and recombined with the T virus!" It's just one in a million, no! There is no one in 100 million! If he can grasp the secret of the T virus in his body and unlock the code, it will be a milestone in the history of human evolution, a qualitative leap, and maybe from now on humans can evolve into higher-level creatures. ”
Dr. Kolo talked about his interest like a river flooding out of control, and he was very serious about his work.
At this moment, he was still chattering: "You see, when he was first sent, he was scarred all over his body, according to my analysis, a majestic force poured out of his body, and his body was seriously damaged because he couldn't bear this force, and the muscle, bone and nerve damage ratio reached 90%, if it was an ordinary person, one tenth of his injuries would die." To be honest, I also thought that he was alive at the time, so he only put him in the convalescence and hoped that he would live a few more days for research, who knew that in less than 24 hours, his body was basically recovered! When his body is damaged, the reproduction rate of red and white blood cells in his body is 60 times faster than that of normal people, which greatly accelerates the self-healing ability, not only that, but when his body is automatically repaired, the strength of the body will be more powerful, which is the powerful self-healing effect after the fusion and recombination of the T virus! ”
Listening to Dr. Kolo's words, the corners of the man in sunglasses hooked slightly, as if he had expected this result. John's eyes widened in disbelief, he knew that Zhao Xiaojie was very powerful, but he didn't know that Zhao Xiaojie's ability came from the T virus, let alone that the T virus was so powerful!
"To sum up......," the young girl said softly, "The T-virus is a double-edged sword, not only does it have the ability to wipe out most of the human race, but it also has the effect of moving the human race to a higher evolutionary level, but at the moment we don't have effective means to control it. ”
The man in sunglasses turned to Dr. Kolo in a commanding tone and said, "Give you a week and give me a satisfactory research result." ”
"Impossible!" The young girl refused, "The T-virus is the highest level of virus ever discovered, it even has self-consciousness to control the host, and the structure is so complex that a week can't solve this problem!" ”
"Becca!" Dr. Kolo whispered to the young girl, "Shut up! ”
Becca closed her mouth when she heard Dr. Kolo's shouting, and only those big beautiful eyes stared at the man in sunglasses angrily.
The man in sunglasses continued: "The zombies in North America have gathered dozens of huge zombie groups to spread everywhere, one or two of them may not pose a threat to us, thousands or hundreds of millions of words will be a devastating force, not counting those mutant beasts with cruel and cunning, now our armed forces do not exist in ten, nuclear weapons cannot be activated for a while, it is difficult to resist with the weapons in our hands alone, the military bases in the east and south have been captured one by one, and the North American Air Defense Department also lost contact yesterday, and it is estimated that there will be more than one luck." Therefore, time is very tight now, and if we can't develop a vaccine for a long time, we will not be able to escape the mouth of the zombies! ”
"A week ......" the man in sunglasses stretched out his index finger and said, "A week, don't let me down, while it's still your research." ”
"Yes, Mister Rogers." Dr. Kolo replied respectfully.
Becca snorted coldly and pursed her lips.
"John? Connor ......" The man in sunglasses turned to look at John and said: "I live on Triangle Street in Los Angeles, I joined the army in 2003, and I have joined the Rangers, Delta, Marine Corps and other units, and after the end of the world, I led my subordinates to fight against the killing machine made by "See Nokia" - the Terminator ......"
John listened quietly as the man in sunglasses recited his information, he had seen a lot of this kind of thing, and every time he came down from the battlefield, the CIA or gendarmes would say these things to him, and usually after he had finished speaking, he would start interrogating.
"You led the rebel fighters and Zhao Xiaojie to defeat Nokia at Hell Gate, preventing the outbreak of nuclear war, and when you returned to the rebel headquarters, you were promoted to major. Then in Alaska, you and Zhao Xiaojie fought against the XE organization and exposed the conspiracy of Major General Sheffield, am I right? ”
"Can you tell me first, you...... Who exactly? John ignored the other party's question and asked the man in sunglasses rhetorically.
The man in sunglasses pointed to his chest with his index finger with a black tactical glove and said, "Captain America, have you heard of it?" ”
"Beautiful ......"
John blurted out with his mouth wide open, "You're Captain America!" ”
If the other party surprised him to know such detailed information, then John was not surprised when he heard this, but shocked.
Captain America, a legendary figure, has been heard of by many people in the United States, but few have seen him, because his identity is more top-secret than the newly developed weapon, and it is because of his secrecy that it is difficult for the general public to guess. Only then did someone make up his deeds on a whim.
John only knows that Captain America is a symbol of the United States and has high power, just like the emperor of RB and the queen of England, the difference is that whether it is the emperor or the queen, although the status is the highest in the country on the surface, but in fact the power is pitiful, to be honest, they are like puppets. Captain America is different, he has real power, except for the president, he alone has half of the power of veto power in the Pentagon! Under normal circumstances, if it is not related to the security level of the entire country, he will not show up, the more times he appears, the greater the chance of exposure, which country does not have one or two trump cards? Captain America is also an ace for the United States.
In addition to this, Captain America also has extremely strong individual combat ability, and I don't know how good he is. The people he had fought with were basically gone.
"Yes, he's Captain America Rogers." Dr. Chloe indifferently confirmed the identity of the man in sunglasses to John again, looking at the expressions of Dr. Chloe and Becca, they seemed to have known the identity of the man in sunglasses.
John was nervous, he didn't know what Captain America, that is, Rogers had asked him to do, he was just a small army major.
"Major, don't be nervous." Rogers' sharp gaze seemed to penetrate John's heart, Rogers pursed his mouth and said, "I came to you because you know him......"
Rogers pointed to Zhao Xiaojie who was soaked in the culture medium and said to John: "I know your relationship with him, in fact, he and I have been paying attention to you last time in Las Vegas." ”
"His appearance broke the difficulty of the T-virus, he is equivalent to the key to open the door to a new world, and the only person who can turn this key is me."
"Uh......" John thought for a few seconds before asking, "What do you mean?" ”
Rogers looked at Zhao Xiaojie with his hands behind his back and said slowly: "I know the ability given by the T virus in his body, so far I have only found that his genes can be fused with the T virus, of course, it is not ruled out that he is the only one." ”
"At present, our research project on the T virus has entered a bottleneck, and his appearance can help us, so that the serum is not known, and the ability of the T virus has not been fully stimulated, maybe his body can't support it, but I have a way to draw out the power in his body."
John's eyes lit up and he stepped forward and asked, "So, did you arrest him to save humanity?" ”
"No, no, no......"
Rogers said with a look of regret: "Although I really want to save humanity, but at present, in terms of our technology, the structure of the T virus is too complex to produce serum in a short period of time, so we can only channel its power to replicate, so that at least we can make human beings stronger, which can effectively reduce the mortality rate of human beings under the siege of zombies!" ”
Looking at Rogers' righteous and awe-inspiring look, John disagreed, to put it bluntly, Rogers just wanted to take the ability of the T-virus for himself, and the idiot would believe that he was willing to extend this ability to all survivors to achieve national evolution.
Rogers's mind is Sima Zhao's heart, everyone knows it, but no one says it, John knows that even if he opposes it now, he doesn't have the ability, and Rogers crushing him to death is as simple as crushing an ant.
After guessing Rogers' conspiracy, John didn't react much, just asked expressionlessly, "I don't know what you want me to do......"
Rogers turned to John in a serious tone and said, "Major John Connor, you are a rare elite of our army, in addition to your fighting ability, you also have your intelligent intelligence. ”
John rolled his eyes and waited for him to come.
"In the survivor gathering place in Las Vegas, there is a camp with a small number of Chinese, and the manager of that camp is the mysterious Chinese organization - the Dragon Group! I'm sure you know a little bit about it. ”
John nodded.
Rogers continued: "Before the outbreak of the virus, when the Dragon Team leader Long Xiaotian led the Dragon Team Elite Agent Team to Las Vegas to arrest the high-level personnel of the XE Organization, he encountered a virus outbreak and was trapped there, and it was not until our army recovered Las Vegas that the Dragon Team was able to survive until now, but the T virus completely paralyzed the travel routes of various cities and countries, so that they can only stay there now. Later, the nameless person whose real name was Zhao Xiaojie joined the Dragons when he arrived in Las Vegas. Yesterday, Zhao Xiaojie came back from the Alaska front line and learned that the dragon group had been looking for his traces since we secretly took him away. My purpose is to let you release fake news so that the people of the Dragon Group will not move for the time being, because we are now in an allied relationship with China, and I don't want to affect the cooperation between the two countries because of this matter, understand? ”
"It seems that he is afraid of the strength of the dragon group," John thought to himself.
Rogers said, "Alright, now you can go back, oh yes." Now that I have officially promoted you to colonel, as long as you do a good job, you will be rewarded in the future. ”
"Yes, Captain." John saluted and turned to leave, he had now completely seen through Rogers's face, and he was still saying something for his own selfishness in order not to affect his interests, phew!
Looking at John's departing back, a subtle smile appeared on the corner of Rogers' mouth......
Air Force Base 1, Area 51 —
When John returned to his temporary quarters, he saw Li Zhenping anxiously walking around the room.
After seeing John, Li Zhenping stepped forward and took John's hand and asked eagerly, "Where did they arrest Nameless?" His grandmother's, we fought life and death on the front line, and even if we didn't give the official a knight, we were arrested when we returned to the rear, what is it! Look at the soldiers outside the room, who are clearly watching us, and they say, "Protection!" ””
Listening to Li Zhenping's scolding and scolding, John smiled bitterly, he is really difficult to explain as an American. John could only briefly tell Li Zhenping what was going on in the research institute.
After hearing this, Li Zhenping said calmly: "No wonder that kid is so powerful, it turns out that this is the case, that Rogers, we must not let him do this, we must find a way to inform the Dragon Group." ”
After speaking, Li Zhenping looked at John with a deep taste, and John, who was uncomfortable, waved his hand and said: "Okay, okay, if you don't say anything about the nameless thing, I will help, and I will go to Las Vegas tomorrow." ”
"Hey, hey!" Li Zhenping hammered John's shoulder and said, "That's why I didn't look away!" ”
John smiled bitterly and said to himself: "It seems that I am the ...... of this double agent."
