Chapter 97: Avengers (Revised)
Bob Lee Eagle, a former Marine Corps sergeant, is a legendary sniper.
In one mission, he was betrayed by his superior and his observer was killed, and he fought against hundreds of armed men and a helicopter alone. In the end, he survived and crawled 16 kilometers in the wilderness of the Middle East with only his remaining left leg.
Afterwards, Bob Eagle shot and killed his superior who betrayed him with an SVD sniper rifle from 500 meters away. Many people suspected him at the time, but there was no conclusive evidence.
After retiring from the army, he was admitted to the Veterans Hospital in New York City. He thought that his life would end like this in the hospital bed, but a magical serum changed his life.
Perhaps because of his strong will, Bob Eagle was not affected by the secondary personality after being injected with the lizard serum. He defeated this new personality and did not become a monster mixed with the evil personality of the lizard.
He was very clever to disguise himself like others and did not expose the fact that he still maintained his sanity.
"The weak and ignorant old humans are no longer worthy of ruling this beautiful planet. We lizardmen are more perfect and more powerful. We will eliminate all the old humans just like Homo sapiens eliminated Neanderthals."
These new lizardmen soon showed strong sociality. They were led by Colonel Johnson.
Colonel Johnson was a very tall lizardman. Compared with other lizardmen, he looked more like a lizard, with a long snout and black scales. At this moment, he was stepping on the corpse with one foot, encouraging other lizardmen:
"We need to create more compatriots. The stupid Osborne Group has the technology of lizard serum! We must take it away! Turn New York City into a kingdom belonging to the lizardmen!"
The remaining lizardmen laughed wildly. They picked up the guns used by the armed personnel of the Osborne Group. Although the lizard-like claws were not very convenient to operate guns, they were experienced soldiers before they were admitted to the Veterans Hospital and quickly overcame the difficulties.
"Boom!"
The broken isolation door was finally violently demolished by them. The lizardmen laughed wildly and rushed into other rooms of the laboratory, relying on their keen sense of smell to find the hidden researchers one by one.
This laboratory belongs to the Osborn Group, and often conducts inhumane human experiments under the instructions of Norman Osborn. The subjects are usually homeless people caught from the streets and stowaways bought from snakeheads.
These researchers were as hard as stone when facing the experimental subjects that they could slaughter at will. Now that they are at the mercy of others, they immediately exposed their ugly and weak side. They knelt on the ground and cried bitterly, begging the lizardmen to let them go.
"Look, my compatriots, these old humans are such weak and cannibalistic waste!"
Bob Eagle's body trembled slightly, and what he had just seen in the laboratory was almost a nightmare. The dark side of human beings is so unbearable that even he was greatly shocked.
Osborn Group obviously has more than one cross-species gene transplantation project. The experiments conducted here are more eager for quick success and barbaric. The test subjects were roughly implanted with genes of various animals and turned into ugly monsters. Most of the test subjects died due to gene conflicts and immune system disorders. They were dissected and made into specimens and soaked in formalin.
Their semi-animal bodies were cut open, revealing various strange internal organs, and their faces still had expressions of fear, hatred, or relief.
There were only three successful test subjects, one snake man, a mixed body of human and snake, with a skinny body, a white-haired old man's head, and a mouth full of sharp teeth. A cat man, she was more like a cat than a human, with long ginger hair all over her body, bald in some places, deformed legs, and even difficult to move. The last one was a vulture man, he was the most successful, with a snake-like neck holding a middle-aged man's head, and the lower body was no different from a big vulture.
"Crack!"
Colonel Johnson scratched the old snake's head with his claws. And broke her neck in the cat man's pleading.
"These despicable failures don't deserve to live in this world!"
It didn't consider these poor people as companions at all, even though they were all victims of the Osborne Group.
"Please spare me. My daughter is still waiting for me to come home. I can fly and I am still useful!"
The vulture man flapped his wings, and his bald face was full of pleading.
Colonel Johnson hesitated for a moment and released his hand that was holding the vulture man's neck.
"I hope you can show enough value, otherwise I will tear your wings off!"
The vulture man repeatedly bowed his body and folded his wings to express his gratitude to Colonel Johnson. He finally survived, tears bursting out of his eyes, and two gullies were washed out on his dirty face.
"Kill all the remaining people, let's go."
Amid screams and pleas for mercy, the head of the laboratory and the researchers were torn into pieces. A severed head rolled on the ground and stopped when it hit the glass, looking at the specimen soaked in formalin.
Colonel Johnson raised his head, sniffed the air, and a ferocious smile appeared on his lizard-like face.
"It seems that many new friends have come. Let's go and warmly welcome them!"
A number of riot vehicles belonging to the Osborne Group surrounded the secret laboratory, and armed personnel equipped with various state-of-the-art weapons filed out of the vehicles. They surrounded the exits of the secret laboratory in a well-trained manner, and three of the most elite teams broke into the laboratory from the roof, the main entrance and the second floor.
"Get rid of all the lizardmen as soon as possible, don't let any of them escape, kill them all!"
A retired Navy SEAL officer served as the commander of these Osborne Group armed forces.
Although the location of this laboratory is a bit remote, the previous gunshots still attracted the attention of New York City citizens. They must clean up all evidence and traces before the New York City Police Department arrives here.
The Osborne Group's connections in the government are not omnipotent. The previous Veterans Hospital incident has made the New York City Police Department very dissatisfied, and some congressmen have also stood up to question the Osborne Group for votes.
Suddenly, there was a scream and gunshot in the laboratory. All the Osborne Group armed personnel who were preventing the lizardmen from escaping on the periphery looked at each other, with doubts in their eyes.
In their view, these lizardmen were just beasts. No matter how strong their recovery ability was, they would definitely die if their heads were pierced.
A figure suddenly broke through the outer window of the laboratory and fell to the ground from the third floor.
"Puff!"
The armed man spurted out a mouthful of blood. He had broken bones all over his body.
"The monsters are all monsters. Run! Run!"
