Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Inhumans
Emma went out for a while and returned to the laboratory, first at Alex, then slowly walked towards Howard, and asked cautiously with a look of hope on his face, "Alex, he... How's it going? ”
Howard hesitated for a moment and said, "The specific situation is not clear for the time being, and it will take a while to observe." ◇↓◇↓,”
Emma nodded silently, turned and walked to the device that had enclosed Alex, her hands on the transparent glass, and quietly looked at Alex inside, her eyes closed, her eyes glistening with tears.
"Everything outside has been taken care of?" Howard was speechless.
Emma nodded imperceptibly, her eyes not leaving Alex for a moment.
Howard looked at Emma, shook his head with a wry smile, and didn't speak again.
The lab fell silent for a long time, and when the daylight tilted and the lab grew dark, Emma finally spoke again.
"Howard, do you know why Alex is like this?" Emma has been racking her brains to think about the reason for Alex's accident, why it happened suddenly, but she still can't figure it out.
Howard walked out from behind the desk, walked outside the instrument, looked at Alex inside and said slowly: "The specific reason is not clear, but I guess that it should be oversaturated with absorbed energy." After a moment's pause, Howard continued, "Now he's constantly emitting energy shockwaves outward, which is actually a means of releasing excess energy in his body. ”
"You mean, wait until the excess energy in Alex's body is released. Will he get better? Emma's stiff face finally moved, with irrepressible excitement.
Howard hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded: "Look at the current situation." That's how it should be. ”
"Then I'll be relieved." Receiving Howard's answer, Emma couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and the expression on her face softened.
Behind him, Howard couldn't help but want to tell the truth, but looking at the expression on Emma's face, he thought about it and endured it.
In fact, according to Howard's examination during this time. The energy in Alex's body is indeed very large, but it should not reach a state of energy saturation. After all, Alex is not stupid and would not be so stupid and crazy to absorb energy. Alex became what he is now. Howard didn't know exactly why.
The only thing Howard knows for sure is that the energy in Alex's body is constantly being released outward in the form of a shockwave. It's just that this energy shock wave is constantly damaging Alex's body in the process of being released. If this continues, there is a good chance that Alex will be destroyed by the constant energy shockwaves.
Howard had previously been trying to terminate the release of energy from Alex's body. It's a pity that he didn't succeed.
"Emma. Can you find a way to give me a ride back to New York? After a moment's hesitation, Howard spoke, the situation was beyond his ability and he had to find someone to help.
Emma was stunned, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it." ”
As she spoke, Emma contacted a mutant with teleportation abilities, although his abilities were not as powerful as Alex's teleportation. However, it is possible to achieve ultra-long-range teleportation at a greater distance than normal teleportation.
With the help of the Teleporter, Howard soon returned to New York.
"This friend. You wait here for a while, I'll go find some people, and I'll be back soon." After leaving the Teleporter at Stark Industries, Howard quickly headed for a hidden place in New York.
Ten minutes later, at S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters, in Nick Fury's director's office, Howard told Alex about his situation.
Nick Fury frowned and asked with a serious face, "What do you need me to do?" ”
"Reliable energy and human scientists."
"How much?"
"The more the merrier!" Howard's face was overjoyed, and he couldn't wait to say, "But it must be reliable, the secrets there must not be exposed." ”
Nick Fury pondered for a long time, nodded and said, "Five people, absolutely reliable." ”
"Can you find it now?" Howard was really worried that something would happen to Alex, so he didn't dare to delay at all, "I still have someone waiting there to send us over." ”
"I've been informed, I'll be coming soon." Nick Fury opened his mouth to explain, and then asked, "Is it really that serious?" "Nick Fury has always admired Alex and never thought that anyone could hurt Alex.
Howard smiled bitterly and nodded: "If it weren't for the critical moment, I wouldn't have come to beg you." ”
"Who the hell is that Tassim?"
Thinking of that terrifying Tasim, Howard couldn't help but shudder: "I don't know, he claims to be an alien." ”
"Inhuman?" Nick Fury's swarthy face showed a hint of surprise, and his eyes widened.
Howard looked at Nick Fury, whose face had changed drastically, and asked with some surprise, "What's the matter, do you know any news?" ”
"Seven days ago, something happened in Ohio." The expression on Nick Fury's face became a little strange, "A small town, everyone is in a coma, at the same time, thousands of people. ”
"Is it also an alien?" Howard couldn't help but stand up, and after seeing how powerful Tasim was, Howard also had a trace of fear for the Inhuman.
"At first we thought it was a mutant." Nick Fury smiled bitterly and shook his head, "But later we tracked down and found the real culprit, a middle-aged man who also called himself an alien." ”
"Anything else you found?" Howard felt that his original guess might come true, and if the Inhumans were to emerge on a large scale, the whole world could be chaotic.
"Actually, it was the man who came to us on his own initiative." Nick Fury's swarthy face flushed slightly, and he said with an embarrassed expression, "He also warned us that he was here to hunt down fugitives, and that this is an internal matter for their Inhuman race, and they don't want humans to interfere." ”
"Inhumans!?" Howard stood up suddenly, the expression on his face was very exciting.
"Yes, Inhumans." Nick Fury spoke, his tone becoming helpless, "A race that may be more powerful than mutants. ”
Howard was completely speechless, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly stood up again: "Then did he say who the fugitive was?" ”
"You mean, that Tasim is their fugitive?" Nick Fury's eyes shrank, and he came to his senses in an instant, "I'll contact that person!" ”
"By the way, Alex's business is also on their heads." The more Howard thought about it, the more excited he became, "The man was injured by their fugitives, and they have to heal Alex!" ”
Nick Fury's eyes lit up, and he said with a happy face: "This is okay, that person is not bad except for his strange temper." (To be continued......) u
