A secret conference room at Heblelen.

Luke, Team Steve, Frank, and Nick, who hurried in and learned something. The four sat in a row of chairs, and in front of their table were captives with their hands still tied.

"Is he okay? I mean he was only shackled with such a pair of shackles. Seeing the visitor, Nick was stunned at first, as if he didn't expect that the other party just used a pair of handcuffs to chop things.

Although there was no need to worry about the other party's outburst when Luke, captain Steve and Frank were all fighting power, in order to avoid that situation, he still asked steadily.

"His alienated limbs are now in a state of slumber, which means that he has no control over his alienated mechanical limbs at all. There is no need to worry about the other party's breaking free and resisting. Luke pointed to a small palm-sized mechanical spider lying on the captive's mechanical shoulder, and said softly.

This small mechanical spider has the ability to seal the mechanical organs of the alien and interfere with neurons.

"Eric Savin? He used to be the head of the army's super-tech project, and the people on General Ross's side, the extremists. It only took a little time for Nick to use his authority to find out the main past of the man on the other side.

Eric only had an inscrutable smile on his face, and was silent without answering.

"A few years ago, due to the disbandment of the hypertech project, you left the army and worked for the founder of .m, sure enough, the latest mechanical virus, is Aldridge Killian the ghost?"

Nick didn't stop because Eric didn't speak, he still talked to himself little by little, just the intact one-eyed, staring at any subtle expression on Eric's face without blinking as he spoke. It's a pity that the other party's expression is very normal, and he always maintains that cynical smile.

"The mechanical virus is a great result of research, but unfortunately it's not perfect." Luke spun a pen in his hand and suddenly spoke in his seat. Luke's voice caught Eric's attention.

"You should be well aware that, no matter what, .m is going to face some inevitable turmoil next. It's not a good ship anymore. ”

"I know you, Luke Field." Eric finally spoke, the first thing he said as he entered. "Dr. Killian admires you, you were once one of his alternatives."

As he spoke, Eric's gaze swept over the four people sitting in front of him one by one, and chuckled, "I know what you guys think of us, madman!" Convict! Villain! Doesn't matter. In my opinion, you are not much nobler than we are. At least Dr. Killian still has some great ideas. Do you think we're about to fall, maybe we'll be able to turn the tables eventually?

I like a quote from my former commander that whoever has the weapon has the power to speak. At present, Dr. Killian also has a weapon in his hands, a very powerful weapon with infinite potential! You can't help him. ”

"To have too much faith is to be arrogant. The world and us are not so simple. Nick said meaningfully. Let's talk about Dr. Killian's purpose. I don't have any ill feelings towards his technology, but I'm unhappy that he's spreading this immature technology outward. I know you may have the shadow and backing of some people in the military behind you, but they have caused enough trouble in the past. ”

】

"Killian can't perfect this technology, can he?" Luke spoke abruptly.

Eric glanced at him, but this time he didn't speak. But Luke didn't care, "In fact, he, or you, are almost overwhelmed. If he can't perfect this technology in a short time, then soon, you will pay for this immature technology. With your lives as the settlement currency! ”

This time, Luke's words finally made Eric's face change.

"I guess this technology wasn't developed by Dr. Killian, it probably started by accident. You must have used some medium to create this so-called mechanical virus. Is it the core of that Tinder project, the Cosmic Cube? If there is no cube, will your technology become a rootless source?

Dr. Killian discovered the peculiarity of the cube and developed a technique to harness the power of the cube. I guess he must have been ecstatic when he first developed this technology. But the experiment was a failure, wasn't it?

Look at your face, am I right? Luke looked at Eric's unpredictable face, leaned back, leaned back in his chair, and grinned.

"Failure? Shouldn't it be a success? Those aliens of theirs. Nick next to him turned his head. No matter how you look at it, although the alienated person on the other side cannot be said to be perfect, it cannot be said to be a failure. After all, after a few ordinary people are alienated, they can use their alienated mechanical limbs to fight against an ordinary secret service team. Not to mention that the military, even him, is a little greedy for this technology. Even though S.H.I.E.L.D. already has all kinds of technologies to offer from Hyperion!

"I think Dr. Killian should have only solved the part of how to alienate people, and he hasn't had time to complete the process after alienation, or he can't figure it out." Luke shrugged.

"Elaborate." Nick didn't care about Eric on the other side, but stared at Luke. Captains Steve and Frank both looked at Luke curiously, waiting for his answer.

"Stability, and the supply of energy." Luke answered. Under the gaze of Nick and the others and Eric, he whispered, "I have dissected and analyzed the corpses of artificially created alienants, they are still very young, but their bodies are already full of holes. Even if you don't get killed, you don't have much lifespan.

I think this is due to Dr. Killian's immature technology and eagerness to experiment, so after the alienation, the body of these alienants is already on the verge of collapse. The reason why he can still be alive and not dying and paralyzed in bed and survive on the life support system should be that Killian has found some way to forcibly glue his body to pieces. Of course, the end result of this stabilization technique is that it has a stabilizing effect, but it is not as good as it should be.

Every time an alien uses his abilities, he is shaking this stability and consuming his own [life]. The stronger the ability acquired after the alienation, the more powerful this instability and sequelae will be. I've seen footage of your battles, and I've examined your body with the detection system inside the all-metal armor. You don't seem to be the same as the alienated ones I dissected. You have a larger source of energy in your body, which makes the burden of your alienation less abundant. Have you been injected with any super soldier potion? ”

Eric was silent again.

Nick next to him had his one-eyed brilliance dimmed again, and his interest in this alienation technique had greatly decreased. For him, what is needed is technology that is stable and ready to be installed, like the ones sold by Hyperion. Although most of them are dangerous, they are all controllable under the technical control of Heblem, and even if there is an accident, there will be a solution.

If it is an unstable technology, all kinds of messy items within S.H.I.E.L.D. can create many super soldiers with extremely flawed flaws. Of course, just because his interest has dropped greatly does not mean that he has given up on the technology. That cube was obviously a dangerous object, and S.H.I.E.L.D. definitely wanted to seal it. Even if it is circulated, it can only be circulated within the scope of controllable risks.

"Is it a desperate virus?"

Eric looked up and looked at Luke in amazement, as if he was surprised by the words that came out of his mouth.

"How do you know?" Eric asked rhetorically. As a top secret within .m, the Desperate Virus is a secret known only to a few people and a few collaborators. Obviously, there is no close connection between the company and those who work with them.

"Is the Desperate Virus used as an energy source for a mechanical virus? Double instability. Luke smiled. People in this world are often so crazy that every time they can't wait for the technology to fully mature, there will always be accidents that cause them to use these technologies in advance or accidentally, and inject imperfect potions.

It is a very ingenious way to use the desperate virus as the energy source of the mechanical limbs transformed by the mechanical virus. Commendable. But only if both of them are stable.

If you are too eager to use both technologies in one person's body, then the other person's body will not just be on the verge of collapse, but will be like a powder keg that will explode at any time, and the instability and uncertainty will rise to a point where no one can be sure.

Killian should also have a stabilizer in his hand, which he uses to bind and control those who are alienated.

"Did you know that Heblem has developed a new technology, synaesthesia? This technology allows one person to peer into another person's deepest memories. So your concealment seems to me completely unnecessary. Looking at Eric, who had returned to a taciturn state, Luke stopped speaking.

"Do you really have this kind of technology in your hands?" Nick came interested. This technique is a perfect match for an agent like them! If this kind of technology really exists, then the difficulty for them to obtain intelligence will be greatly reduced. He could even use this technique to try out some hidden people lurking within S.H.I.E.L.D. first.

He has a few suspicious candidates in his heart, so he needs the appropriate means to verify the truth of his suspicions.

"Of course. If you need it, I can show you it live. It's just that this technique has some after-effects. Luke said yes and no. Synaesthesia technology is naturally true, and this technology is also very mature within Hebelun, but for some considerations, it has not been disclosed to the public for the time being. As for the sequelae? The latest version of synaesthesia awareness technology is of course no problem. But who would lose the king in the first place?

"What do you want to know?" Eric asked. He didn't know if what Luke said was true or not, but he still recognized Heblelen's skills and Luke's fame.

Let people peek into their own memories?

Eric is not sensitive.

What's more, even if he said it now, it wouldn't affect Killian anything. As a confidant, he naturally knew Killian's purpose and all his plans. His disappearance will definitely attract Killian's attention and force the other party to take the final plan in advance. While he was leading the hunt for Venom, Killian had already begun to prepare for a rainy day, and now that so much time had passed, Killian should have everything ready.

"We just want to know, what the hell does Killian want to do? I've been following .m for a long time, and you show a certain tendency that seems to me to be very dangerous. Nick temporarily put away his thoughts about talking to Luke about business on the spot, and looked at Eric who was willing to open his mouth with a serious face.

"Change." Eric replied.

"Change?" Nick's expression became more serious. It's not a word to celebrate for someone like Killian who is a little crazy.

"A revolution in evolution! This is the Tinder plan he formulated after experiencing the invasion of the Zetarians and obtaining the Cosmic Cube. Eric gave a very quick explanation: "The plan is to use the power of the cosmic cube to make human beings completely evolve!" Get rid of the weak human body, disrupt the current political structure, and gather the power of the entire world by a new administrator to make humanity enter the space age and become a member of the interstellar life that can survive and be active. ”

"It's a big plan. So, who is this new manager? Killian? There was a mocking sneer in Nick's eyes. If he did get to that point, he would rather Luke, the black-bellied profiteer, or Stark's arrogant tongue, sit on it, than agree that it was Killian who sat in the new position.

"You don't know anything about the power of the Cosmic Cube, which is why you are so arrogant and ignorant that everything is under your control, and even if it happens, it can be reversed. In fact, you may already be faced with a choice between choosing to die in evolution? Or join us and be one of us to contribute to Killian's new world. Eric sneered at Nick's-for-tat return.

"What do you mean?" Nick sensed something bad at Eric's words.

"It means that it's too late now, let's join this mechanical evolution together." The sneer on Eric's face turned into a crazy smile: "After I lost the news, Killian should be ready to activate it in advance by now, he will activate the energy of the Cosmic Cube, and release them indiscriminately. Entire metropolises, entire countries, and entire worlds will soon be exposed to the light of evolution.

At that time, everyone had no choice but to follow Killian's script. If you can't help him fix the technical flaws as soon as possible, many, many people will die. And if you want to stay alive in the first place, you need a stabilizer in Killian's hands. ”

Is this a friendly army?

Luke tilted his head subconsciously.
