Chapter 23: Incineration

In the lab, Reed sat in a chair and stretched his palms into a giant fan. Waving, he tried to fan the air and bring himself a touch of coolness.

"Whew...... Call...... Why is it so hot......"

Reed kept fanning, hoping to bring in some faint wind.

His hand moved rapidly, fanning the air around him. Despite his efforts, the temperature in the lab still seems to be rising. Reed felt sweat drip down his forehead, and the hot sensation made him a little uneasy.

Is the temperature control system broken? No, S.H.I.E.L.D. shouldn't make such a low-level mistake.

The temperature in the laboratory continues to rise, and a strong heat wave fills the air, making it seem that all the oxygen in the air is thinning.

Reed felt his clothes clinging to his body, wet, and a hint of heat steam.

The heat was like an invisible flame, scorching every inch of his skin, making his breathing rapid and difficult. He felt thirsty, and a fire seemed to burn in his throat.

The temperature in the laboratory has far exceeded the normal limit, as if you were in a furnace. Instruments and equipment whimpered and could not withstand such heat.

"What's going on! Fury?! Sue?! It's not funny, it's not funny at all! ”

Reed rushed towards the door of the lab in a fit of rage, and he slammed the button open, hoping to escape the scorching heat.

"Open the door! I'm Mr. Fantastic, Reed Richards, open the door for me! He shouted loudly, hoping that the access control system would recognize him and unlock the door.

However, the access control system only responded with two beeps, displaying a warning message that "the identity is not recognized, and the person is not found in the database".

"It can't be! I'm a registered hero and I have a record in S.H.I.E.L.D.! He roared angrily and slammed his fist against the door.

However, the access control system still did not respond, and the doors of the laboratory remained closed.

Reed cursed under his damn breath, his eyes rolling, his body compressing like a spring, and then slamming into the ventilation duct on the ceiling in the corner of the room.

However, when he tried to grasp the louvers of the ventilation ducts, his hands simply slid over the smooth metal plates. His mood instantly fell into despair, and anger burst out.

As Reed landed in despair, he realized that things seemed to be getting worse because of the strange movement coming from the nearby wall.

His eyes widened as he looked in horror at the barrel of a gun protruding from the wall. Before his eyes, flames and fuel erupted from the barrel of the gun, forming a terrifying tongue of fire that struck him.

Damn, who's going to hurt me!

Reed's body began to become soft and elastic, and he stretched and contracted like rubber, using his ability to bounce quickly through multiple flames.

His body contracted like a spring, then suddenly expanded, bouncing him out of the range of the flames. With each bounce, he flew over the burning flames like a nimble projectile.

"What the fuck is going on? Fury! Are you watching surveillance? Help me! ”

Fury didn't respond, and the only thing Reed got was more barrels sticking out of the wall, spewing flames at him as he dodged.

The flames raged in the laboratory, and Reed kept dodging the flames, but the muzzles of the guns on the walls continued to shoot out crimson flames, forming a sea of fire. Almost the entire room was engulfed in flames, and the vicious fire filled the air with a thick smoke.

White coats, chairs, instruments, everything burned in flames and made a crackling sound. The white coat on the chair was engulfed in flames and quickly burned to ashes, leaving only sparks flying in the sky.

The equipment in the laboratory was not spared, and the chemical bottles burst, making a violent explosion that released devastating flames and smoke. The scorching flames turned the walls black and began to melt, dripping with a red-hot liquid.

The whole scene becomes chaotic, and the fury of the flames turns the laboratory into a hellish sight. Reed felt a strong heat wave hit him, his skin burned, and he could feel his clothes begin to melt.

Why.

Why?

Why!

Reed slumped to the lab bench in the middle of the room, staring desperately at the flames that were rushing towards him.

Suddenly, Reed noticed that the skin of the corpse on the table was beginning to melt under the burning of the flames, revealing broken bones, and his eyes were fixed on this scene, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he seemed to understand something.

He looked up at the ceiling, laughed maniacally, and roared from his mouth: "Fury! You son of a bitch, blind! I know what you're afraid of! You are afraid of the future! ”

His voice echoed through the burning laboratory, like the angry roar of a wounded beast. There was a smack of madness and despair in his laughter.

"Can't you fool see with one eye? Our resistance is in vain! Why don't you join those creatures who have evolved, don't you understand the beauty of eternal life! ”

Feeling the heat of the flames, his body began to be irreversibly affected by the melting. The burning flames eroded his elastic muscles and soft skin, and the rubbery muscles gradually lost their original elasticity. His skin began to melt, turning into a puddle of hot liquid that smelled burning.

The flames licked at his body, causing him to feel great pain.

His body resembled a piece of melting rubber, and the surface began to show deep dents and dissolving marks. The properties of elasticity fade away, becoming soft and fragile.

"Ahh It hurts! ”

"Just a few more minutes, a few more minutes...... I'll be able to turn Susan and them into new humans! We're going toβ€”"

Reed's limbs gradually deformed and fell to the ground in a heap.

His nose fell to the place of his mouth, one eye softened, the other sticked out of his socket like a stick, and his ears flowed down to his legs, and he had lost his human character, fading into a twisted mass of matter.

No one would think that this thing was still alive, but he was still roaring, but he was still wailing.

"Do you think you'll be able to run away from under the zombie's mouth if you kill me? Impossible! It's only a matter of time before you guys get eaten! ”

"Ahhh My hand! ”

The flames eventually enveloped Reed's body, and his voice faded in the raging flames. His last words echoed in the air.

"Wo...... No... Gan...."

As time passed, the flames receded, and the raging flames dissipated into the air. The room gradually returned to its tranquility, covered with charcoal and ashes.

At the same time, the muzzle on the wall retracted into place and disappeared into the wall as if it had never existed.

Everything burned to the ground, except for the black mass in the center of the room, which was once a part of Reed's body faintly recognizable from the shape of the char.

Although it has now completely lost its original elasticity and vitality, and has become stiff and brittle, it still retains some residual contours.

The wreckage reached out its hand, or part of its body, to another mass of char on the platform just before it died.

......

......

Everything that happened in the surveillance was seen by Bai Ye, and he smiled with satisfaction as he watched the charcoal gaba crack into several pieces.

"Your wife is raised by S.H.I.E.L.D., don't worry about it."
