I absorb everything in the United States

There are various bottles and jars in the laboratory, and the folding lamp glows with soft white light, illuminating four three-meter-high round jars.

One of them is filled with red liquid, and the other three are covered by black curtains, so the contents cannot be seen.

"M.O.D.O.K., I came here from the Hydra base just to see you filling red wine in a can." Baron Zemo said dissatisfied, "You told me on the phone that you were about to find the lost artifact. .”

"You are still so irritable, Zemo." M.O.D.O.K. sneered, "These signs show that we are getting closer to our goal little by little."

M.O.D.O.K. picked up a cup, went to the faucet placed in front of the jar, and took a glass of red water.

"I won't drink that stuff." Zemo refused.

The liquid in the cup is crystal clear, without any impurities, but it makes people feel sick just looking at it.

"Hydra is my big customer, how could I harm you as an executive?" M.O.D.O.K. mocked, snapping his fingers.

Two guards escorted an unkempt prisoner in.

"Open his mouth!" Mo Duoke ordered.

The guard immediately complied, and the prisoner could only watch helplessly as an ugly head poured unknown liquid into his throat with his short hands.

"Let him go," M.O.D.O.K. said calmly.

The prisoner fell to the ground with a thud, curled up into a small ball, and began to convulse all over.

After a while, it stopped.

"Huh?" Baron Zemo asked confused.

"Be patient," said Mordor, "the best is yet to come."

Seeing that the prisoner who had been motionless just now suddenly stood up, as if some force had lifted him up, his arms dropped, and he looked up at the sky with a pair of pure black pupils.

"Tell us, what did you see?" M.O.D.O.K. activated his mind to stimulate the prisoner.

The prisoner's posture did not change, and he spoke hoarsely: "A tree...a tree that connects everything...and one of its branches, falling into the abyss like a meteor..."

Baron Zemo's eyes became greedy and hot. He stepped forward and grabbed the prisoner's shoulders and said, "Yes! Tell me more, where is the branch!"

"Where...where?"

The prisoner looked at Baron Zemo, his black eyes like bottomless black holes, and suddenly he opened his mouth, tearing the corners of his mouth to the base of his ears.

The ear-piercing scream resounded throughout the entire White Nest in an instant.

"FK!"

Baron Zemo was in pain from the shock. He squatted down and covered his ears. The ears covered by the mask overflowed with blood.

boom!

The prisoner's head exploded and his headless body flopped to the ground.

"Damn it! What did you do?" Seeing the prisoner being killed, Baron Zemo immediately got up and rushed to M.O.D.O.K. angrily, "You just killed our clue!"

"If I don't blow up its head, everyone here will be killed by it." M.O.D.O.K. said, "Its sound will not only hurt the eardrums, but also break the fragile human spirit. And..."

Mordor waved his hand, and the curtain of a jar fell.

There were several human corpses soaked in formalin in the jar. They died with their eyes open and every pair of eyes was pure black.

"I have almost completed the experiment. After drinking red water, they will only repeat the few words they just said when they come and go, and then launch an attack that can shatter the soul."

"Then what to do next?" Baron Zemo asked.

M.O.D.O.K. pulled open the third jar.

The jar is divided into two layers and contains a hairy frog-like creature.

The first floor was empty, except for a strange creature lying motionless without any vitality.

The other layer is filled with red water, and the strange creatures inside crowd the glass jar, as if it might burst out at any time.

"That's disgusting." Baron Zemo said in disgust. The side with water was like a pot of thick, moving black meat porridge.

M.O.D.O.K. floated over to the jar and placed his hands on it, as if caressing the strange creature through the glass.

"Do you know what is the most wonderful thing about these creatures, Zemo?" M.O.D.O.K. said the answer without waiting for an answer, "When I first started, I only placed one in each of these two levels of space. "

Baron Zemo was stunned: "You mean... they will automatically copy themselves without limit when soaked in red water?"

"Haha, if it is indeed unlimited, Mine No. [-] would be full of these things by now."

M.O.D.O.K. left the jar, "They can selectively replicate themselves, but once they get out of the red water in Mine No. [-], they will become endless self-reproduction elsewhere. This may be a protection mechanisms, and they are related to the artifact we are looking for.

Every prisoner bitten by these strange creatures died, except for one gentleman, who successfully avoided the security check and was dragged to the prisoner cafeteria before the danger broke out. "

M.O.D.O.K. reached out and pulled back the curtain on the last jar.

Inside is the monster that transformed in the cafeteria!

"He...it's alive?!"

Baron Zemo said in surprise. The chest of the humanoid creature in the jar was rising and falling slightly, and white mist was sprayed from its nostrils from time to time.

"That's right." M.O.D.O.K. pressed a button and a screen stretched out from the ceiling.

What was playing on the screen was the surveillance video of the monster killing everyone in the canteen that day.

"I said before that the protection system of the artifact is related to itself, and this monster is no exception." M.O.D.O.K. said, "So I tried to stimulate it. I believe this thing is much easier for me than those frogs and black-eyed people. Yes, I successfully stimulated its 'go home' instinct.

So now we just need to put it out, and it will lead us to the location of the source. "

"This is very good, very good. I am very satisfied with this progress." Baron Zemo nodded with satisfaction and came to the bottom of the screen to observe the monitoring.

The video on the screen was exactly at the moment when the mutated monster was confronting Yassen.

Baron Zemo pointed at Yassen Garcia, who was facing the monster in the video: "Who is this person?"

"What? How do I know, he is just an ordinary prisoner." M.O.D.O.K. was puzzled.

"Have you really not noticed, M.O.D.O.K.? There is no fear of death in this man's eyes."

Looking at the man on the screen, Baron Zemo felt vaguely flustered.

Only when facing superheroes does he feel this kind of anxiety!

"so?"

"So I want you to use your smart brain and search his memory to see if there is anything interesting in it."

……

"Ah!"

Yassen Garcia, who had exited Pit No. [-] and was among the prisoners, sneezed.

He has not yet realized the seriousness of the matter.

Following the guard's order, the prisoners who had taken refuge in the open space took heavy steps, like giant old turtles, slowly returning towards the direction of the White Nest.

Due to an unexpected situation, today's mission in Mine No. [-] ends here.
