Chapter 22 The Great Evolution

As the door to the laboratory opened, Susan walked in and came to Reed's side.

"It's good that you're okay, Sue."

Although he spoke words of concern, Reed was still focused on studying the zombie's body. He concentrated on cutting out a small piece of the zombie's heart and placed it under a microscope for careful observation.

With his eyes fixed on the microscope, he seemed to be communicating with the cells of the zombies.

Susan approached Reed and didn't care about his coldness. She asked with concern: "Why are you staying here by yourself? I thought you were working with Banner and Tony."

"They are working on other projects, and we conduct different studies separately, so that if one of them makes a discovery, the other person can go over and help."

Reed continued to be immersed in the study of zombie organs, and he didn't seem to care too much about Susan's departure.

"Computer, clean up area 16 of Gamma on the 30th floor."

Her voice trembled, and her eyes flashed with anger and helplessness. She couldn't understand why Reed described the changes in the zombies so coldly, seeming to completely ignore who the culprit of all this was.

Fury thought silently for a few seconds, then burst into laughter. There was a kind of relief and joy in his laughter, and he stretched out a big hand towards the prophet in front of him.

Turning around and walking out of the laboratory, she no longer wanted to say another word to her crazy husband.

"Are you still there, Sue?"

Reed's eyes flashed with excitement: "These creatures are really amazing. They are human beings, but they are not. The infection by the virus has made them such efficient creatures."

".Overwrite successful, start cleaning."

"Um"

Susan nodded in understanding.

To be honest, part of what he said is correct. Zombies do have little demand for energy consumption, but Reed ignored a crucial point, which is the appetite of the three major human desires.

"It was Tony's idea, but I agree."

Fury looked at Reed, who was still spinning around on the zombie corpse on the screen, and was in a rare moment of hesitation.

Reed still didn't look back at this time. He looked up and down the corpse of the zombies and said indifferently: "Of course I haven't forgotten it, but what I can't ignore is that these zombies seem to have evolved in our body structure. ”

This sudden change surprised Bai Ye, but then he also showed a smile, stretched out his hand and shook it firmly.

After that, he took off one of the zombie's eyeballs, held it close and observed it carefully, and uttered admiration from time to time.

"This evolution in some ways makes them more adaptable to today's cruel world."

"If this doesn't prove the accuracy of my prediction, then I just said that these zombies can live forever without eating or drinking, which coincides with Reed's experimental results."

Under normal circumstances, after a person is full, his brain will send a signal to his body to prevent him from stretching himself to death, but zombies are different. Although zombies will still feel full, because their heads have been severed, they still feel full. The ability to "live" immortality.

However, there are indeed some zombies among zombie heroes who can resist this hunger, but that was forty years later. During these forty years, they almost ate up the entire universe.

Afraid that the agent leader would be compassionate and want to let Mr. Fantastic go, Bai Ye quickly stood up and said more jealously: "Do you remember what you said? I have the power of prophecy, and it was I who injured Quicksilver that gave him You bring valuable reaction time.”

As he expected, Reed may have gone crazy after losing his child, or maybe he was already crazy. In short, he now regards zombies as the future of mankind.

After Susan heard Reed's words, she was filled with grief and anger. She could not accept his description of the evolution of zombies. How could such absurd words come from the mouth of Mr. Fantastic?

The camera instantly zoomed in on Mr. Fantastic, and his every move was fully visible.

After hearing Reed's description, Susan's eyes widened in disbelief and she shouted: "These zombies are all demons! They are not new creatures. Don't forget what they did to our children!"

As long as these guys have a mouthful of meat in front of them, they will still have to stuff the meat into their mouths even if their intestines are exploded, and they won't die anyway.

He was observing the zombies' organs, trying to understand their evolution. He glanced back when he heard the door slam, but quickly turned his attention back to the experiment.

"oh?"

“A pleasure to work with.”

"Many of their organs have stagnated because they don't need those useless things, but they still retain mobility and intelligence under such circumstances, but their minds rarely play a role, which is strange."

Seeing the one-eyed dragon in front of him still lowering his eyes and remaining silent, Bai Ye slapped the table with a rather frustrated attitude: "What are you waiting for? Why don't you kill Reed quickly? Do you want us all to be treated like desserts by these guys? ?”

"There is a registered hero in the target area, ID: 00042, Mr. Fantastic Reed Richards. The protection program is activated and cannot be cleaned."

"Can you imagine? An adult male needs to consume at least 15,000 calories and 20 liters of water a week, but these creatures only need one thousandth or even one ten thousandth!"

"Evolution? Cruel world?! This world has become so cruel because of them! They destroyed our homes and took away the people we love, and now you want us to understand their so-called evolution?"

Fury calmly took a puff of his cigar, flicked the ashes, and said:

"Use level ten authority to cover it and ensure that the target is completely inactivated."

"What, is this evidence enough? He even called this virus evolution. No matter what you think, I don't think a bunch of man-eating monsters are evolution."

Seeing "Susan" walking out of the laboratory and returning to her dull look after the door was closed, and disappearing into the cracks in the wall, Bai Ye opened her mouth and said.

"You have proven your worth and your stance, and S.H.I.E.L.D. welcomes you."

"But to be honest, I don't know how Tony and the others are doing, but I should have made some progress here."

Returning to his seat, Fury lit a new cigar and handed it to Bai Ye. He smiled after watching the latter take it, and flicked his left hand in the holographic projection.

As the mechanized voice in the holographic projection disappeared, Bai Ye clearly saw that Mr. Fantastic, who had been studying beside the corpse in the laboratory, moved.

He took off his head-mounted magnifying glass, walked to the far desk and wiped his forehead, took off his white coat and hung it on the back of the chair, and then looked around with some confusion.

Is it my own illusion?

Why does it feel like the laboratory that was originally a little cold suddenly became hot?
