"Get out of Hell's Kitchen, you culprits!"
Hell's Kitchen, accompanied by all kinds of ugly curses.
"We have to be protected by you smug guys."
A group of hippies held the remaining wine bottles in their hands and threw them at the detective agency in front of them.
The glass bottle hit the wooden door with a harsh crackling sound. Looking at the glass shards scattered at the entrance of the detective agency, these hippies burst into laughter and stretched out their hands to gesture provocatively towards the unresponsive private detective agency. After a few seconds, they left the shabby private detective, cursing.
He held his head high, as if he had done something great.
A few minutes later, the loud jeers gradually faded away.
The door to the detective agency opens and Jessica Jones pokes her head out.
She lowered her head and glanced at the broken wine bottles on the floor, then frowned and glanced at the big words "Death to Superheroes" on the walls on both sides of the detective agency, and couldn't help but curse in a low voice.
Unlike the Avengers who are able to ignore Donald and even treat his tweets as a joke.
Jessica Jones and other low-level superheroes are the ones who are truly affected by the atmosphere.
Because of Donald's unfriendly attitude towards weirdos and superheroes, many people in Hell's Kitchen have already responded to this.
During this time, not only Jessica Jones's private detective agency, but also Luke Cage was attacked by extremists in Harlem. Although these attacks were unable to cause damage to the invulnerable Luke Cage, Hurt, but it can also be seen that the social atmosphere in the United States has gradually transformed from the initial admiration for superheroes to disgust and even extreme attack.
This change in social atmosphere is deeply felt by the Defenders of Street Super Heroes.
It's not that Jessica Jones doesn't argue with reason and even responds to violence with violence, it's just that whenever she does so.
It often only makes the situation worse.
Matt has gone to the police station more than once to bail her out.
Because of "Day of Annihilation", tens of thousands of families in New York have fallen back on the edge of poverty. Instigated by Donald, these people blame superheroes and weirdos for everything they have experienced, believing that it is because of these people. The existence of others has caused the poverty that I am now in.
Perhaps, some people will think that there is no causal connection between the two, and there is no evidence to support it.
However, as said before, many facts do not require evidence. As long as they are repeated over and over again, someone will always accept this point of view.
And the recipients of these views will become Donald's most loyal supporters.
You can think these people are stupid, but that doesn't stop them from voting.
After all, this is a sacred right granted by ‘democracy’.
…
In the United States, the election in full swing has erased bit by bit the atmosphere of sadness and fear caused by the "Day of Annihilation".
The other side of the distant ocean rests on a piece of territory between the South Pacific and the Indian Ocean.
As a member of the Five Eyes Alliance, Australia also pays great attention to the elections in the United States.
After all, as a member of the Five Eyes Alliance, although on the surface the alliances cooperate with each other. But in fact, taking Canada as an example, we can see that the so-called Five Eyes Alliance is actually just a subsidiary organization dominated by the United States and followed by the other four countries.
Among the Five Eyes alliance, Australia’s performance is the most outstanding.
It can almost be said that he is completely dedicated to serving the United States.
Because Australia knows very well that due to geographical factors, being so close to Asia, Australia can only rely on the power of the United States if it wants to survive.
The results of the American election have attracted the attention of Australia's entire political situation.
At the same time, in Australia's Northern Territory, an archaeological research team is carrying out archaeological excavation work.
Most Australians today are immigrants from Britain, or even prisoners. However, long before Australians landed on this land today, there were indigenous people living here and they have existed for tens of thousands of years. Although most of these indigenous people have been exterminated, the history they left behind The ruins have become the target of exploration in Australia today.
"Dr. Corazon, this is where..."
Driving through rugged roads, the archaeological team came to a deserted rock cliff.
Australia is the flattest and driest continent in the world, with more than 20 percent of its land uninhabitable.
What the archaeological team arrived at was a deserted cliff.
According to intelligence sources, signs of human life were found in one of the rock caves.
"Be prepared. I hope this time it will no longer be a tribal ruins, but a useful discovery."
As previously described, before modern Europeans colonized Australia, the continent was already populated by tribes.
These tribes have survived in Australia for tens of thousands of years, leaving behind a rich legacy of life. Most of these ruins are spread across the entire continent and are of no value to archaeology.
Leading a group of members of the archaeological team, a doctor named Corazon walked into the discovered rock cave.
The first thing that caught Dr. Corazon's eyes was the ancient murals on the cave walls. Dr. Corazon did not appear too excited about the murals of primitive tribes. After all, this type of discovery can be found in almost all of Australia. Relics are a common recording method used by primitive people.
Scanning the content of the mural, Dr. Corazon stayed in it and was attracted by the huge pattern surrounded by many crude portraits of primitive people.
Looking at the content of the murals, the content they described was somewhat different from the murals that simply recorded the hunting process in the previous archaeological research he participated in.
His eyes paused for a moment on the huge simple pattern in the center of the mural.
"Dr. Corazon, we have made a discovery..."
However, soon, the slightly excited voices from the members of the archaeological team attracted his attention again.
Following the team's exclamations, Dr. Corazon stepped over and quickly arrived at the location of a member of the archaeological team.
"Doctor, you see, this groove is obviously not a trace formed by nature, it is more like..."
Pointing to a sunken plot in the cave, the members of the archaeological team said excitedly.
"It's more like a specially made tool for processing."
Looking at the grooves of the cave, Dr. Corazon's expression also became excited.
If his speculation is true, it will obviously be an exciting discovery for the Australian archaeological community.
"Dr. Corazon, come here and take a look at this!"
However, before Dr. Corazon could step forward to confirm the condition of the groove, the voice of the archaeological team came from deeper inside the cave.
Inside the cave, the archaeological team held up their flashlights to shine on the huge ancient stone door in front of them, which was wrapped in a large amount of rocks. The expressions on their faces were full of shock.
…
"Experimental Subject No. 32, failed."
Mexico, somewhere in the wilderness underground.
In a secret underground base, a sturdy man with an indifferent appearance looked at the dead experimental subjects in the laboratory in front of him, and made a report with an indifferent expression.
Behind the man, a large number of figures who looked the same as him were working in an orderly manner.
If Kingpin were here, he would find that these working men looked exactly like him in appearance.
"Failed again?"
Looking at the experimental subjects who died due to genetic breakdown in the laboratory, a middle-aged man with gray hair and an academic temperament shook his head helplessly.
Regarding the death of the experimental subject, the man or the doctor did not have any inner fluctuations.
Anyway, these people are DU traffickers from Mexico and do not deserve sympathy. Catching these people for experiments may in a sense help Mexico fight against criminals.
On the contrary, what really concerns Dr. Doppelgänger is the failure rate of the experiment.
The experimental results of [Compound No. 5] are more difficult than imagined.
Today, the injection experiment that is closest to success only allows the experimenter to gain the ability to make the body glow and become a backup light source for the entire base. In addition, a large number of experiments have not made any useful progress at all. Although these The lives of drug traffickers are not worth mentioning.
However, meaningless death is completely meaningless to the experiment.
No wonder, in the introduction of the system, even Walter International Group, which mastered [Compound No. 5], only succeeded in stopping hundreds of extraordinary beings, and only seven of them were really able to take action.
Recalling the system's introduction to [Compound No. 5], the clone finally understood why the system would issue this item as an item from the [Silver Treasure Chest].
"Doctor, Experimental Subject No. 45 has some mutations in his body, and [Compound No. 5] has changed his body."
In the base, just when the clone was having a headache because of the almost negligible experimental success rate of [Compound No. 5], a 'pacifist' who looked like Kingpin suddenly appeared in the laboratory and made a report to him.
"Well, give me the test subject's data."
After hearing the report of the 'pacifist', Dr. Doppelgänger immediately spoke.
Taking the screen handed over by the robot, the clone could clearly see that after being injected with [Compound No. 5] in a certain laboratory in the screen, the body of Experimental Subject No. 45 began to change, and the bones in his body were distorted. The originally thin body was forcibly supported into a strong man, and at the same time, these bones in the body also grew like a hedgehog.
"Why is this happening?"
Looking at the results of this experiment, the clone frowned slightly.
Connect it with the glowing experimental body before.
Why, among so many experimental subjects, only two of them successfully completed the mutation.
What exactly do the two have in common?
Thinking of this, the doctor began to look through the data of his two experimental subjects.
And, he quickly discovered a certain feature that somewhat surprised him.
"It's actually..."
In the antique shop, Li Ran received a message from the clone of [Dr. Vegapunk], and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
He did not expect that what allowed the two drug dealers to survive [Compound No. 5] was not anything else, but the fact that both of them were monstrous people created under the power of grotesque light waves.
"Maybe it's because the power of weird light waves has strengthened their bodies to a certain extent, allowing them to better withstand the power of mutation and transformation of [Compound No. 5]."
Through the results of the experiment, the clone informed the main body Li Ran of the results of his analysis.
In fact, in the world of "Black Robe", [Compound No. 5] is also an extremely dangerous item. The successful products of Walter International Group are often experiments started in infancy. The number of people who can successfully survive the injection of [Compound No. 5] is almost very slim.
Li Ran naturally didn't know about this situation.
Even if he knew it, it would be completely impossible for him to conduct experiments like Walter International Group did.
After all, unlike Walter International Group, [Compound No. 5], for Li Ran, although it was related to some part of his plan, it did not make him resort to any means.
Fortunately, the discovery of the clone this time solved this problem very well.
Especially when he has the card [Bill Sever] in his hand.
For him, the grotesque can have as much as he wants.
…
Three days later, in a hidden underground base in Mexico.
The doctor transformed by [Dr. Vegapunk] looked at the weird man who had successfully mutated after being injected with [Compound No. 5] in the laboratory, and the expression on his face turned to determination.
The results of the experiment proved that the weird people transformed by the power of [Bill Sever] did have a higher survival rate than ordinary people after the transformation of [Compound No. 5].
In the past few days, he has successfully used this method to give birth to a group of grotesque people with greater power.
Although, due to the uncontrollable mutation of [Compound No. 5], the abilities awakened by these weird people are all kinds of weird, most of which are useless abilities, but compared to ordinary weird people, they have mastered the mutation ability of [Compound No. 5] They are obviously stronger.
After all, because of the mass production of the eccentric people produced by [Bill Sever], the eccentric abilities they obtained are actually not very strong.
Of course, if it was just to strengthen the grotesques, it would not be worth Li Ran's effort, and there would be so many 'pacifists' conducting experiments in the base.
"Then, the next step is up to you."
His eyes swept over the results of the experimental subjects in his hands, and Dr. Doppelgänger paused on two of them for a moment before speaking to the empty void around him.
"Ah hahahahahaha, I can't wait any longer."
As the words of Dr. Doppelgänger fell, [Bill Sever] appeared in the void holding the top hat on his head.
