In Louie's view, this kind of work of selling war bonds is a kind of mental and physical training, and it is very reasonable to give some reward.

But the Mark of the Brave didn't think so, and didn't even give Louis a hair, but Esther rewarded Louis with different tricks during this time, making this journey across North America less boring.

In addition to Louis attending various banquets or events, he will take Esther with him, and it seems that there is only one ceremony away from becoming Mrs. Hunt, in the middle of the publicity campaign, many merchants suddenly came to the door, they took a fancy to Louis's status as a war hero and excellent image, and invited him to shoot some advertising photos.

Of course, Louie will not refuse this kind of thing, who will not get along with money? Among them, there are many wealthy businesses who want to invite popular Hollywood actresses to cooperate with Louie, but Louis recommended Esther, and the other party agreed with almost no hesitation.

Esther has an excellent image, and she has followed Louis in many newspapers during this time, and she is not unfamous, and she can also use the identities of Esther and Louie to make a fuss: a beautiful girl who is waiting for her boyfriend to return from the battlefield, how perfect!

Louie's itinerary changed because of the merchants, and the original plan was to pass through North America in a straight line, but as a result, several more cities appeared, and his route became even more bizarre than when he was hiding from anti-aircraft fire in the sky, and by the time Louis finally completed this long propaganda journey and arrived in New York, it was already 1943.

He spends Christmas and New Year in propaganda activities, and he still needs to work on the days when many people are off, but fortunately, according to Senator Brandt, this trip has worked very well, and it is unlikely that such an intensive publicity campaign will be arranged in a short period of time - even if you cut leeks, you have to wait until the next round of leeks grows before you start, right?

"In the next period of time, you can go to Dr. Erskine, I don't know what he does, maybe it's easy, maybe it's troublesome. ”

Senator Brandt was quite satisfied with the results of this work, and Louie's performance was called perfect, and Senator Brandt even asked Louie if he had any ideas about entering politics, and if so, he could arrange for Louis to retire from the army and officially enter politics after two years.

Louis refuses this, not to say that he doesn't have this idea, even if he does, it is useless, and he doesn't think it is a good idea to be in politics in this world.

After being separated from Senator Brandt, Louis took a break in New York before heading to Dr. Erskine's research base in New Jersey, ostensibly a boot camp where Dr. Erskine's lab was hidden.

"The environment is not bad, if you feel bored, you can go to the river for a walk. "Surrounded by woods and rivers, the environment is clean and undisturbed, as for the camouflage training camp? No recruits have been assigned yet, according to Erskine's explanation, the selection of 'suitable' recruits will not begin until the experiment has reached a certain stage.

Louis took a tour under Dr. Erskine's guidance, and after taking note of the environment, he asked himself directly what he was going to do?

"Let's do a medical check-up first!"

"Huh?" Surprised, Louis followed Dr. Erskine to a room full of various medical equipment, and in it stood several doctors in white coats.

He wasn't worried that the gang would rush up and dissect themselves, and the soldiers guarding outside wouldn't be enough for him to fight, as long as he wanted, he could completely dismember all the researchers present in a matter of seconds.

Taking off his clothes and leaving only his shorts, Louie went to measure his height first.

"Six feet and one inch, that's a little higher than when you joined the army. Dr. Erskine just glanced at Louie's body, focusing more on Louie's body: "Your body and legs are perfectly proportioned, like a masterpiece made by the greatest artist." ”

Although "......" is a compliment, Louis is really not happy to be surrounded by a group of scientists and praise himself as an old man.

And these guys don't just watch, they take all kinds of measuring sticks and compare them on themselves, and luckily these people don't do anything else.

After the basic body data was measured, it was time to test heart rate and strength, etc., and before the test, Dr. Erskine made a special statement: "Play to your full strength, because the follow-up work schedule is based on your test results today." ”

Louis looked at Dr. Erskine, secretly using the Force to perceive the trajectory of the future, with his current strength, he could not perceive anything particularly detailed, and could only vaguely feel whether it would be unfavorable to him.

But that was enough, he didn't perceive the danger coming. Since it doesn't pose a threat to yourself, it's fine. Louis showed his strength, explosiveness, agility, and almost every statistic exceeded the testers' expectations.

Only Dr. Erskine did not show surprise, and when Louie finished his test, he took him to a more secret laboratory.

This is the core laboratory of the Super Soldier Project, and then pointed to the bottles in front of him that looked similar, those were the results of some time ago, and they could only be regarded as half-finished products. ”

Louis looked curiously at the glass tubes containing the potions in front of him, and then reached out and brushed them lightly.

Originally, I just touched it curiously, but when I came across one of them, a message suddenly came from the Seal of Courage in my left hand: Enhancement potion (semi-finished product), slightly improve my own attributes.

“？”

Louis froze, trying to pretend that nothing had happened and continuing to brush over the other bottles, but Dr. Erskine had been watching him and had noticed the change in his expression.

"What do you feel?"

Louis rolled his eyes, the old guy brought himself, sure enough, he was planning this, since this is the case, he will no longer hide it: "What do you want to know?"

"I want to know which of these potions is likely to be successful. ”

"You think I can know this kind of thing just by touching it?" Dr. Erskine shrugged his shoulders, and it seemed that he did think so, and Louis was speechless, "You are a scientist, why would you believe such an unscientific thing?"

"Science can't explain everything, we really have very little scientific knowledge, maybe in a hundred years, what seems unscientific will become very scientific. Dr. Erskine clearly doesn't care about this kind of thing: "Like your magical sensory abilities. ”

He had studied Louie's flight footage many times, and he had gone through all the details of it, and he had come to the conclusion that either Louis had terrifying dynamic vision and great calculus, or he possessed some kind of magical power, or he could not explain what he almost always flew through safe routes.

Once or twice can be lucky, and every time it is, it obviously can't be explained by luck.

Whether it was Louie's incredible arithmetic powers or special abilities, Dr. Erskine thought he could help him, and now it seems that he has made the right choice.

"And, in fact, only this tube is the real potion. The rest were fake, and Dr. Erskine casually threw them into the trash can next to him.

Louie didn't care about Dr. Erskine's 'test', nor did he care that his abilities were known, especially after determining what kind of world this was, his abilities were not a big deal at all.

"So, you actually want to use my abilities to complete the potion. ”

"Well, actually, ......," Dr. Erskine corrected Louie's guess, "It's a potion improvement." ”

Dr. Erskine gave a detailed introduction to the situation of the super soldier serum, it turned out that he had already made the enhancement potion, but the current potion has huge side effects, and he is trying to find a way to eliminate the side effects.

"Side effects?"

"Elixir magnifies everything in your body, not just strengthening your body, but also the thoughts that exist within you. Dr. Erskine pointed to the location of the heart: "It will make the good guys better and the bad guys bad." ”

Louis opened his mouth speechlessly, he had long forgotten that this potion had this side effect, but he immediately remembered that when he touched the half-finished product of the potion just now, the Mark of the Brave did not remind himself of the side effects?

What does that mean? Is it because of my status as a brave man?

Dr. Erskine didn't know what Louie was thinking, and after explaining his thoughts in detail, he took out several bottles of potions that looked similar to the previous ones from a hidden cabinet next to him.

"These potions are modifications I've tried, which one do you think might succeed?"

Louie didn't answer, and directly reached out and touched the medicine bottle one by one, almost all of them were potions that improved their own attributes in small or small amounts, but most of them were additionally marked: insufficient mental power will encounter unknown risks.

"Are these potions modified in different ways?" Louis asked Dr. Erskine as he withdrew his hand, wanting to be sure of one thing.

With Dr. Erskine's introduction, Louie discovers that the few products that do not indicate risks are the products of Erskine's greatly weakened potion effect, and the other ones that indicate risk are products that want to keep all the enhancement effects as much as possible.

Combined with the information after his 'probing' just now, the conclusion is very clear: a few bottles that indicate the risk are equivalent to telling himself that with his current mental power, using these potions is risky.

There is no risk warning, that is, it can be used at will, but the effect is much worse.

"No matter how bad it is, it will be effective, and no matter how small the mosquito is, it will be meat!" Louis realized that this place was a treasure trove for himself!
