Chapter 181: A New Krypton Escape Pod!?
This is the conference room of the U.S. military base, and Amanda Waller is in the main seat, and they are just having a meeting, a very, very important meeting.
At this point, the meeting was interrupted by an uninvited guest who projected his face on the big screen.
"Miss Waller, it's a pleasure to meet again."
In the midst of the many voices that exchanged ears, Amanda Waller slowly stood up and stared at the face of the man on the screen.
Although she is a stout aunt with a body comparable to a bucket, she can still be called "Miss" whenever others ask for her.
But Waller didn't appreciate it at all.
She looked at the screen quietly with the thin middle-aged man with orange hair wearing glasses in front of her.
"Doctor Randolph Porter, you should know that you are now a Class A wanted criminal for your illegal abuse and trafficking of venom, your use of civilians for experiments, your blatant assault on the National Laboratory Laboratory, and your violent resistance to the law and the killing of multiple agents after being prosecuted on 10 counts."
Amanda said: "Your cooperation with the government has long since ended. Do you still have the courage to appear in front of us? ”
Amanda was well aware that the second before she saw the live communication in front of her, the FBI's most elite computer experts would start tracking the signal in an attempt to find the location of the daredevil.
And what she has to do is to stall as much time as possible and create opportunities for computer experts.
But Dr. Randolph in front of him didn't seem to hear what he was saying.
"Two weeks ago, I attacked your secret lab in Kansas. ”
His expression was indifferent, but when he spoke, little by little green lines quietly climbed his cheeks, adding a bit of gloomy and terrifying temperament to him.
"yes, with those unconscious Venom people of yours."
Amanda Waller said, "You're looking for death. ”
She was a little suspicious that the other party in front of her was not a live broadcast but a video, so she tentatively said, "Answer me, Randolph, do you want to die?" ”
"Don't be so ugly, Waller. Guess what I found?
Dr. Randolph immediately responded to Amanda, who didn't seem to care about Amanda's attitude and continued, "I can't believe you guys found this. ”
Then he said in a dreamy tone, "You have detected a new Kryptonian refugee ship heading towards Earth. ”
"A Kryptonian baby who could be just like Superman! That means the future! ”
Amanda Waller looked at Dr. Randolph with an ugly face, and he chuckled:
"So that's why the news of monsters jumping out of the coast to eat people before was so overwhelming, right? And why the state police and the military are completely indifferent to those monsters. ”
"You want to focus Batman's attention entirely on that matter to make sure he doesn't jump out and grab this new Kryptonian with you!"
Amanda's gaze began to grow dangerous.
This guy knows so much.
He knew so much just from the lab he attacked? Bullshit.
Amanda didn't believe it.
She realized that the other party must have used the addictive nature of Venom to control some officials, and even people within them.
Thinking of this, Amanda was in a very bad mood.
They have done their work of secrecy to the limit, and even in order to prevent intrusion, they have not even kept electronic files.
But the problem is that the secret agents are just ordinary people after all, and even if they are trained to resist drug interrogation, they will still surrender in the face of Titan Venom, a highly addictive drug that is hundreds of times more powerful than Poppy*.
Not to mention that they are still facing Dr. Randolph, the creator of Titan Venom.
Amanda believes that the other party was aware of part of their plan when they invaded the experimental base, but she didn't know the whole picture, and the rest should be the result of the other party's active investigation.
The best part is that they don't know anything from beginning to end!
"So you're here to show us that you've discovered our little secret, aren't you? Porter? ”
Amanda was expressionless: "What the hell do you want to do, Randolph Potter?" ”
"Don't be so tense, Miss Waller."
He heard Dr. Randolph laughing under his breath across the screen.
"We can work together."
"I have nothing to talk about with terrorist attackers."
Amanda said, "Your home is prison. ”
"Our previous collaboration was successful, wasn't it? I succeeded in developing Venom from those foreign prisoners. ”
Dr. Randolph said, "It's the same now. ”
He looked down at his watch. Then a reserved smile appeared on his face.
"In four minutes, that ship is about to land, isn't it?"
He said, "Isn't this meeting here to witness this moment? ”
He was full of malice: "Discussing the value of carving up this new Kryptonian? ”
Amanda Waller couldn't hold back any longer, she turned to the technician next to her and shouted, "Stupid pig, why haven't you found his place yet!" You ......"
Waller gave a look of realization, staring at the computer expert before pulling his sleeve open.
She found a pinhole in his forearm.
"It's you!"
Amanda's face was gloomy: "You work for Potter!" ”
"No, no, I don't have ......"
The computer expert still wants to deny it. But the words of several colleagues beside him cut off the last trace of his luck: "No wonder we haven't tracked it down, team leader, you ......"
Amanda Waller quickly retreated to the back, and then the guards on the scene directly pulled out their guns and pointed them at him, and several officers and officers sitting next to the computer expert, as well as the few subordinates who were still accusing him just now, also hurriedly dispersed and gave up a vacant space.
The computer expert was sweating profusely. He looked at everyone pleadingly, but received only a cold gaze.
"No, no......"
Under numerous gunfires, his psychological defenses finally collapsed.
"I'm sorry, Miss Waller, I, I don't want to, but Venom is so cool that I can't control myself...... Oh my goodness, my goodness......"
"Are you still looking for my place? Waller? ”
"No need to look for it."
Amanda turned her head to see Dr. Randolph on the screen smiling maliciously.
He picked up the camera and stepped out of the original white background, and Amanda realized that he was inside a tent and outside......
It's an endless desert.
"Longitude: 116.293417, Latitude: 40.068589." Dr. Randolph said, "Kansas, where the spacecraft is about to land, welcome to the live!" ”
Amanda gasped as he saw countless tanks and soldiers lying on the ground in the distance, the army he had arranged there to bring that Kryptonian ship back, she had just received the news that everything was okay a few minutes earlier, and it was obvious that it had been faked.
And stepping on their bones were dozens of muscular giants who roared in the sky.
Their bodies already had beast-like claws and fangs, and the skin on their bodies was abnormally pale.
Green streaks crawled down the veins of their bodies, illuminating them like hungry ghosts.
The tank was smashed open and torn apart like a walnut, and Amanda could even see a monster lifting a surviving soldier into his mouth and chewing on it as the other man screamed.
This is no longer human......
"Three minutes to go." Randolph said, "That Kryptonian ship will fall in the palm of my hand. ”
He sighed, "You have no idea how much effort I put into this day. You care so much about Batman that you've wasted most of your energy on distracting Batman and ignored me. I didn't expect it to be so easy to succeed. ”
He turned out to be a little religious: "Soon, the Kryptonian will be mine, and I'd be happy to try on him if he can use Venom in the same way." ”
"Steve!" Amanda Waller turned to Steve Trevor and shouted, "Contact Wonder Woman, we need ......"
But she stopped abruptly in the middle of her sentence, and then temporarily changed her words: "No, just take off the plane, use bombs to bomb that area, and kill everyone!" ”
"What about the Kryptonians?"
"If we get a real Kryptonite, then the bomb will kill him."
Amanda Waller said, "Go! ”
"Why? Obviously Wonder Woman is more capable of ......" Before Steve finished speaking, he realized the reason why Amanda did this.
Once Diana's help is enlisted, then that new Kryptonian is bound to be exposed to Wonder Woman's vision.
So, what they are going to do next to the Kryptonians is, I'm afraid, no, it should definitely not be recognized by the other party.
But Steve still vetoed the proposal to use bombing.
"We're not sure if that Kryptonite will be able to fight the bomb explosion!" He spoke very quickly:
"Even though we tested the ship's trajectory beforehand and showed that it had streaked across the sun, the Kryptonian should have absorbed enough yellow solar energy, but it was all calculations on paper!"
He said: "If we calculate correctly, it will not be a big problem, but if we miscalculate, it is very likely to cause the death of Kryptonians!" ”
"So what do you say?" Amanda Waller asked him in a low voice, "The Red Sun Armed Forces we had prepared for that Kryptonite have been destroyed by Dr. Randolph and his Venom Legion. ”
Amanda said, "Wonder Woman can't be used, we have no choice but to ......"
Steve knew that the other party already had the answer in his heart.
"We enable John Cobain, the metal man." "Although there were some after-effects, John was able to overcome them," Steve said. ”
Amanda nodded immediately: "Okay, I'll authorize you, wake up-"
But her words were interrupted again, and a violent roar rang out in the conference room, and the computer expert in the middle of the room violently broke free from the handcuffs that had just been put on him, and then in full view, his muscles crumbled his clothes, and his whole body swelled like a balloon.
"I'm ...... Innocent! ”
"Ahh
Immediately afterward, several others in the crowd fell to their knees, growing louder in a low roar.
The guards raised their energy weapons and continued to fire at the small giants that appeared, and the scene was immediately chaotic.
……
……
……
Bane disguised himself as a plant.
Literally.
He buried himself completely in the sand, and then sensed what was happening on the ground by the colorful ferns that grew from his back and head.
He'd done this before, using flowers to feel the location of the enemy, but frankly, the feeling was very abstract, like the ultrasonic feedback of a bat. This perception may be a very good aid when you have vision, but in the case of losing your vision, this perception is very awkward.
After all, humans are a race accustomed to visual access to information.
But the problem is that Bane is not a simple user of the green of all things, and plants have no eyes, so wouldn't it be better if I used the red eyes of all beings to grow one on plants?
This is actually a high-level application, just like another superhero "Black Orchid" who is compatible with both red and green powers, can also make his limbs and flesh have the characteristics of plants.
After days of tracking and various bone-breaking interrogations, Bane finally found the location of Dr. Randolph, and it was definitely a long journey.
At first, he still had the leisure to break other people's bones, but later there were too many interrogations to track down, and most of the intermediaries and dealers were characters who didn't see the coffin and shed tears.
So in order to make it easier to trace, he deliberately went to the place where he hid things and brought the zombie Blake over.
With the telepathic Purple-headed Release, who forcibly read the memories, Bane's tracking efficiency suddenly increased several times.
And this is where Dr. Randolph is about to arrive by forcibly reading the brain of a muscular man permanently modified by venom.
Although the unlucky guy who has gone crazy now due to the forcible reading of his memory has no idea why the other party came to such a desert where birds don't for no reason, the memory of reading doesn't lie, so Bane came here to ambush a long time ago and quietly waited for the rabbit.
Then he watched as a large group of troops and soldiers drove up, designated it as a special military zone, and then beaten into small biscuits by Dr. Randolph and his men.
Luckily, he buried himself far away, and he was able to dig sand underground to move his position, so neither of the two sides of the dog brain noticed him.
So Bane has been crouching beside him from just now to now, quietly observing them.
As the battle ended, Dr. Randolph finally made his way to a certain place by himself.
And when Bane manipulated the eyes on the plant to look up at the sky, it was only then that he finally realized what Dr. Randolph was waiting for.
There was a loud bang.
Dr. Randolph raised his arm and shielded his sleeve from the flying sand and soot. Then he stood on the desert with his head bowed, his hands folded.
Bane could see his hands trembling with excitement as he focused more on the ship.
Is it a Kryptonian orphaned ship?
No, it seems a little smaller.
Bane pondered silently.
Is it a baby ship?
It's kind of like, it can't be a dog.
Whatever it was, though, he couldn't let Dr. Randolph get his hands on him.
Dr. Randolph staggered to the still smoking ship.
His voice trembled a little: "I created a gem in the first half of my life, and his name is Bane. And for the rest of my life, you are my treasure, dear...... After so much energy, I'm finally going to get you! ”
Bane was ready to get his hands dirty.
Dr. Randolph opened the hatch.
In the next second, he was petrified in place.
