"So, your arrest failed, Director?" In a reception room near Capitol Hill.

The one-eyed black agent was not annoyed by this lack of deference, although there was no subordinate relationship between them, and Aegis was generally not accountable to the Senate for its actions, but he did not intend to anger the other party over the issue.

"Yes, the killer took advantage of the chaos in the exhibition hall to escape, and we had to give up the arrest in order to protect the most urgent personal safety of the gentlemen." Nick points out the dilemma at the time.

The fact is also true, if the guests in attendance are not protected, the big people in the crowd may be killed, although it is not the Winter Soldier who kills them, but what difference does it make, people will die anyway, and the result will be the same whether they die at the hands of the machine or be killed by the killer.

The senator wants to express his dissatisfaction is nothing more than that Aegis did not invest more forces at his request and did not inject more resources into the security measures of the big shots, but Aegis has its own responsibilities, and Director Fury is not a full-time bodyguard of the senator, so it is not easy to do this, and the next step is to start again.

Senator Kelly was gagged by him, stood up very displeased to see off the guest, and waited until the black director left, and he walked into the next break room, where anti-mutant activists were waiting for his news.

"We can't count on anyone else, S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn't look reliable." As soon as he entered the door, Kelly made up his mind.

His guests looked at each other, if the Aegis that was good at dealing with ordinary humans was unreliable, then who else could they rely on?

"I'm not saying we're going to leave them alone, that's what we deserve, we're an important part of this country and deserve it. Fury won't compromise on this, but it's probably unrealistic to expect him to catch the killer soon. So we have to have our own strength. Kelly explained.

"But what can we have, we're not agents or soldiers. I don't even have a gun? A scholar-like man timidly asked, the people around him were either rich or noble, they all had their own defenses, and he was just a university teacher who advocated social Darwinism, and several of his colleagues who had been killed before were all such academics, and they were very effective as spokesmen, but if there was any threat of violence, his situation must be the most urgent.

"Then go buy a gun. Master the tools, master the skills. The senator was not very enthusiastic about him, and beat him out with a casual sentence of the arms company's advertising slogan.

In order to gain attention, scholars who take a radical attitude to express their opinions are everywhere like drunks in taverns, where they don't care about life or death, and they need to pay attention to those who really have the strength and resources, and these people are safe, their bodyguards and agents are enough to defend against a single killer, in fact, they are not without speculation about the origin of that person, mutants are more accustomed to using their talents to fight, and may not be able to send such a well-armed guy. On the contrary, it is the colleagues who have been in contact with them who are more suspicious, as evidenced by those who have been killed before, perhaps those who want to muddy the waters even more. Urge them to make stronger moves.

However, there is no need to say anything about this kind of thought, and those who don't know don't need to know, and if the status is high enough, you can know it in your heart.

People gradually left, and finally the well-known people from the pharmaceutical group stayed.

"Lynch, last time you talked about Watsonton's research, I'm interested." Kelly spoke directly about the new appearance of pharmaceutical companies.

"Yes." Although we suffered a setback in our research on the body of the new Magneto, God did not close all the doors, perhaps in return for our tireless efforts, not long after the research team reached an impasse. The unexpected mutation of a virus in our microbiology research department in the culture room gave us a whole new kind of power. ”

"Virus?" Senator Kelly frowned. It's a term that sounds a little unsettling.

"Yes, but please don't worry too much. This virus is not very contagious, we have done some related things, unless it is specially injected, it will not be infected, and even if the virus from the receptor is extracted and injected into a new organism, it will only be rejected rather than mutated - it is more like a tumor than an infectious disease. Mograini quickly explained.

The senator leaned back to the sand and thought for a moment before letting him continue.

"This virus can promote the strong and rapid division of biological cells, and greatly increase the mutation rate, producing all kinds of abnormal cells, just like mutants carrying mutant genes, each receptor will produce a variety of different spreads due to the difference in its environment, if the receptor is placed in a safe observation box, they will evolve slowly, but if it is changed to a dangerous environment, the host is aware of the threat, and it will mutate in a short time. According to our experts' guesses, this is due to the combination of individual proteins, enzymes, and genes themselves, resulting in a variety of unpredictable results. ”

Mograini said some jargon, and the senator just nodded, but didn't continue to ask, he just wanted to know the final effect.

"Powerful, very powerful." The muscles in Mograini's face twitched, and he seemed to have some not-so-good memories. "Almost infinite life, power beyond the limits of volume, and possessing indescribably powerful restorative power."

"Sounds like Captain America?" The senator groaned for a moment, comparing it to the most familiar hero of his age.

"Stronger than him, and at least the golden wolf." Mograini affirmed. "Although it can't deal with a monster like Magneto, its potential is far from the limit, this is a virus that can shorten the process of biological evolution indefinitely, and its potential is unlimited."

"If it is really as effective as you say, I will ask His Excellency the President to increase support for Watsonton Pharmaceuticals." Kelly pressed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and made a formal promise, but he had one more precondition.

"Do you have any solution to the present crisis, knowing that our group was formed as a result of Mr. Watsonton's strong appeal, and he has an inescapable responsibility for the present situation." There was a cold smell in the senator's words, his body leaning back against the sand, the glow of the fireplace shining from behind, casting a heavy shadow on his face, making Mograine completely unobstructed by his expression.

Mograine, who has been lobbying on Capitol Hill for many years, knows that this senator who is trusted by the president has an eccentric and withdrawn temperament, and has suffered heavy setbacks on the mutant issue, perhaps because of this reason that he wants to take some drastic measures, and now he is very dissatisfied with the inability to do it because of the mutant ability, and if he can't come up with an effective solution on the killer problem, maybe he will turn to other support and abandon Watsonton Pharmaceuticals, which has invested a lot of money.

Mograine had only recently officially left the lobbying firm to join Watsonton, and he still had shares in pharmaceutical companies, and certainly did not want his fortune to shrink for no reason.

But the effects of the virus do look a little scary, and there are mixed opinions about it in the company. If it is not properly controlled, it may actually cause trouble, and if it were not for the pressure of the senators, he would not have taken the initiative to bring it up.

"We have some options." Mograini hesitated. "We can choose some animals to cultivate, equip them with biological brain control, and use them like military dogs. We already know a little bit about the killer, and he doesn't have a lot of physical metrics other than his skills, so I think we can surprise him and the people behind the scenes. ”

"Very well, we need such constructive advice, and I will make a special call to Chairman Watsonton to thank you for your contribution to the country, and of course, especially Lynch, your help, you are an important member of us." Getting what he wanted, the senator's stiff facial expression became vivid, he stood up with an uncharacteristically smile, and Mograine quickly shook the senator's hand in flattery.

"Go for it, don't worry too much, the history of mankind has never been done by cautious and cautious people, if navigators are afraid of wind and waves, and only dare to wander near the sea, then this big 6 will not be seen at all, and our country will not be able to talk about it. Behind all amazing achievements, there must be some brave and persistent people, which is why we call that kind of people heroes - and if you do, I can guarantee that heroes will be rewarded as they deserve. The senator said meaningfully, and then sent Mograini out of the door.

In the face of great interests, the former lobby elite, who looked as brave and fearless as a lion, also bent over, and when he disappeared from the presence of the senator, Kelly slowly transformed into a different image.

Hammer Industries has fallen, and next is Watsonton Pharmaceuticals, the company that holds the mutant cure has a staunch anti-mutant chairman who will pay the worst price for his dangerous tendencies.

Who said that in order for mutants to integrate into human society, they must compromise with those in power? Even before the legislator made changes to take into account the diversity of mutants, his target demographic was already targeted by interest groups. In this cruel world, the only way is to stand up and protect yourself. Obeying the rules set by the perpetrator is as ridiculous as a sheep asking a wolf to eat grass instead. The new leader does not intend to integrate into human society as a marginalized group, he wants his group to become the mainstream of humanity. There is no need to ask for consent in this process.
