Chapter 173 Superhuman Roger

"Today we are not going further toward extinction, but the first step on the road to peace..."

"It starts with a series of minimally invasive injections, injecting serum into the muscle, which triggers a rapid change in the cells, which then stimulates growth..."

"Then, through the life ray, penetrate the main body..."

Dr. Abraham Erskine briefly explained the principle of the experiment to the guests in the control room.

While Dr. Erskine was explaining the principle, his experimental assistant pushed up a refrigerator containing 7 super soldier serums.

After the assistant loaded 6 of the serums, Dr. Erskine finished his explanation, came to Rogers, and asked him how he was feeling in a low voice.

"Injection begins!"

After confirming that Rogers had no problems, Dr. Erskine gave the order to officially start the experiment.

Although Roger is now Howard's assistant, he does not need to be in charge of the operation of the experiment.

The only thing he can do now is to stand in the laboratory and witness the birth of Captain America Rogers.

6 super soldier serums, 1 life ray machine that consumes half the power of Brooklyn, 1 suitable injector.

That's all the super soldier experiment needs.

"five four three two one!"

At the end of the countdown, the injection of 6 serums started at the same time.

At the same time as the injection ended, the steel coffin-like life ray instrument began to rise slowly, and the hatch began to close.

When the life ray instrument stood up, Dr. Abraham Erskine came to the instrument again and confirmed Rogers' status.

"Mr. Stark, go on!"

After Dr. Erskine finished speaking, the experimenters including Howard and Roger took out the sunglasses that had been prepared and put them on.

The instruments were activated, and the life ray began to glow.

As the power continues to increase, the light becomes more and more dazzling, just like a real sun.

When the power increased to 70%, Rogers in the life ray instrument suddenly let out a painful scream.

The loud screams even overwhelmed the noise of the equipment running.

Rogers' screams made everyone nervous except Rogers.

"Turn it off!"

Peggy Carter, who was sitting in the control room, came directly to the laboratory and shouted at Dr. Abraham Erskine.

After hearing Peggy Carter's reminder, Dr. Erskine reacted and shouted at Howard who was operating the instrument: "Turn back, Mr. Stark, turn off immediately, turn back!"

Although Dr. Erskine is the inventor of the serum, just as Howard was worried about just now, he does not have much experimental experience.

The Doctor has never injected the serum on anyone other than Red Skull John Schmidt.

To make matters worse, the Red Skull's injection also had obvious "rotten face" sequelae.

As Roger said, Rogers is now a guinea pig.

Whether he can become a super soldier through serum, even Dr. Erskine is not sure.

Just when Howard was about to turn off the instrument, Rogers' voice sounded again.

"No! Don't turn it off! I can handle it!"

Rogers' voice made Howard give up shutting down and continue to increase the output power of the life ray.

In a few seconds, the output power of the life ray was increased to 100%.

The dazzling light erupting from the life ray instrument became the only color in the laboratory.

However, this scene did not last long.

Because of Roger's extra help, the life ray device Howard built this time was not as overloaded as in the original timeline, and the entire process was safely completed.

After the dazzling light completely disappeared, the coffin-like life ray instrument slowly opened the hatch.

Under the shroud of white hot air, Rogers appeared in front of everyone like a freshly cooked barbecue.

The little Rogers, who was 1.6 meters tall and weighed ninety kilograms, completely disappeared.

In its place, a brand new Rodgers with well developed pecs and perfect abs.

To be precise, it is a brand new Rogers with a height of nearly 1.9 meters, a weight of two hundred catties, and all bodily functions such as strength, senses, and reaction ability have reached the potential limit of human beings.

It worked!
Rogers became the first super soldier in American history.

Dr. Abraham Erskine helped Rogers down, who had not yet recovered, and looked at him with relief.

The guests in the control room descended on the laboratory and began to congratulate Dr. Abraham Erskine.

When everyone was immersed in joy, Roger's eyes were on the official personnel who came to the laboratory last.

Although he couldn't remember the name of the man in the gray suit and glasses, he knew that this guy was from Hydra.

It was he who snatched the last remaining serum and shot Dr. Abraham Erskine, making Rogers' super soldier serum formula an unsolvable puzzle.

Although the Hydra agent was about to shoot Dr. Abraham Erskine, Roger did not stop his plan.

The death of Dr. Abraham Erskine was something Rogers had to go through to become Captain America.

In other words, such was the fate of Dr. Abraham Erskine.

Dr. Erskine also noticed this suspicious guy, but before he could say anything, a violent explosion broke out in the control room on the second floor.

boom!
At the same time as the explosion sounded, this well-mannered Hydra undercover agent immediately came to the refrigerator and took away the last serum.

"Stop him!"

exclaimed Dr. Abraham Erskine.

bang bang bang...

As soon as he finished speaking, he was hit in the chest by a bullet and fell down slowly.

The guards and Agent Carter tried to prevent the undercover Hydra from leaving, but their efforts did not have the desired effect.

In the blink of an eye, the undercover Hydra rushed out of the laboratory with the serum.

…………

Roger didn't step in for Rogers' first hero performance.

The development of the matter was the same as in the original history. Rogers successfully prevented the undercover Hydra from taking away the serum, but failed to bring back the last serum.

When Roger saw Rogers again, Rogers had completed the meaningless blood draw, and came to the laboratory of the Strategic Science Corps with Agent Carter.

Dr. Erskine died, and the serum formula was not left behind, and the only finished serum was destroyed.

This is undoubtedly extremely bad news for the Strategic Science Corps, which is trying to build a team of super soldiers.

At this time, they can only put their hopes on Rogers' blood, to see if they can reverse the formula from Rogers' blood.

From a scientific point of view, their idea is correct.

But what they don't know is that this is simply impossible.

Not to mention using the technology of this era to reverse the formula, even in Roger's era, those scientists were unable to do this.

"This morning, I spoke with the President on the phone. Starting today, the Strategic Science Corps has a new mission."

"We're going to fight Hydra to the death, pack up Agent Carter, Stark and you too, we're flying to London tonight."

After Colonel Phillips dismissed Senator Brand, he said to Carter and Howard.

After finishing speaking, Colonel Phillips was about to leave the laboratory, but at this moment, the voices of Roger and Rogers sounded at the same time.

"Sir, if you want to deal with Schmidt, I will also join." Rogers said with a serious face.

"I think you should take me with you when you go to London." Roger also gave his opinion.

If Rogers suddenly proposed to join, Colonel Phillips, Carter and others are understandable.

Then when they heard that Roger also wanted to join, their expressions became very puzzled.

Colonel Phillips first glanced at Rogers, then turned to Rogers and said, "You are an experiment, you have to go to Alamodo."

"The serum is working!" Rogers asked puzzled.

"What I want is an army, but you are the only one, which is not enough!"

Colonel Phillips rejected Rogers mercilessly.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Roger's voice sounded again.

"Colonel, I can give you an army!"

After being interrupted to leave one after another, Colonel Phillips' face became a little ugly.

"Mr. Wayne, I hope you understand what you're talking about?"

There was unabashed menace in Colonel Phillips' tone.

If Roger hadn't appeared here as Howard's good friend and assistant, he would have asked Roger to be kicked out early in the morning.

"I know exactly what I'm talking about, Colonel, what you want is not an army, but a force that can defeat Hydra."

"And I am such a force!"

While speaking, Roger came to Colonel Phillips and said confidently.

"It's up to you?" Colonel Phillips said disdainfully.

This time, even Howard felt that Roger was a little too arrogant.

"Whether I can do it or not, I will know if I try it."

"Rodgers should be the super fighter in your mind, I can defeat him in just three seconds!"

Roger pointed to Rogers, and raised three fingers on his right hand.

"Three seconds? Okay, I'll give you three seconds. I want to see how you can beat Rogers!"

Colonel Phillips didn't have much affection for Roger, who was of unknown origin. At this time, Roger's arrogant attitude directly aroused his dissatisfaction.

"I reject!"

Rogers declined without thinking.

He didn't think he would lose to Roger, he just didn't want to become some kind of test tool for no reason.

"Sorry, your rejection was rejected!"

As soon as the voice fell, Roger launched an attack on Rogers.

He didn't use any extraordinary physical skills, and he didn't even explode his physical strength with all his strength.

However, even so, his moving speed and punching speed are still far beyond the imagination of Colonel Phillips and others.

His figure flashed for a moment, and before they could see clearly, he came in front of Rogers.

Although Rogers, whose physical fitness has been enhanced by the serum to the limit of human beings, can clearly see Roger's movements, he has no time to resist Roger's attack.

Bang!
A non-fancy straight punch hit Rogers' chest like a cannonball, knocking him into the air, and slammed into the brick wall behind him.

The terrifying force from Roger's fist even penetrated Rogers' body and hit the brick wall fiercely, causing cracks visible to the naked eye to appear on the brick wall.

Although Rogers gritted his teeth and insisted on the sharp pain coming from his chest, his will did not weaken the body's instinctive reaction.

Under the watchful eyes of Colonel Phillips and others, he instinctively spat out a mouthful of blood, and he half-kneeled on the ground weakly.

"I shouldn't have to continue!"

Roger's voice sounded faintly.

Until then, Colonel Phillips, Agent Carter and others finally reacted.

However, their first reaction was not shock, but pulled out the guns on their waists and aimed them at Roger.

"Who the hell are you?" cried Colonel Phillips.

"A superhuman who can meet your needs!"

Roger opened his hands and said casually.

"Superhuman?"

Obviously, Colonel Phillips and the others don't know much about superhumans.

"Superhumans are humans who have mastered extraordinary powers, and now Rogers is a superhuman."

Roger explained briefly.

However, his explanation did not make Colonel Phillips and others put down their pistols.

"It seems that you still don't believe it very much, shoot, and I will open your eyes again!"

Roger asked them to shoot.

"Shoot! You don't even have concerns about shooting!"

"It's been so long to think about shooting, no wonder you can't beat Hydra!"

Bang bang bang!

Under his prodding, Agent Carter finally opened fire.

However, instead of shooting his heart and brain, Agent Carter shot bullets into his limbs.

However, after Carter shot, they saw an even more incomprehensible scene.

I saw Roger's right hand swipe quickly at a speed beyond the limit of human naked eyes.

Afterwards, the bullet flying towards him was caught in his hand.

Colonel Phillips and others couldn't see what he had done at all. When he opened his palms, they saw clearly the bullets that should have hit him.

This……

The scene in front of them was completely beyond their comprehension.

Colonel Phillips and Carter, who are experienced in combat, were better off and did not behave too badly.

But Howard, Senator Brand and the others had their eyes widened with incredulous expressions on their faces.

how can that be!

How can humans catch bullets with bare hands!

……

After showing his skills, Roger successfully boarded the plane to London and became a temporary agent of the Strategic Science Corps.

As for Captain America Rogers, just like in history, he started his touring career.

London, where the Strategic Science Corps is stationed.

"How on earth did you do it?"

Ever since he witnessed the scene of Roger catching bullets with his bare hands, Howard became very interested in this question and asked Roger again and again.

"It's as simple as seeing where the bullets are coming from and grabbing them when they hit you."

Roger explained calmly.

"It's impossible. The human nerve response speed and eyes can't do this at all, and even if you can see the trajectory of the bullet, it's impossible for the human body to make such a quick move."

Howard shook his head and said.

"That's why I said that I am a superhuman. A superhuman is a human being who surpasses normal human beings. What humans cannot do, superhumans can do."

"If you like, you can call people like us Superman!"
