A Journey of American Comics Starting from the Zombie Universe

Chapter 220 Mutant Gene Reverse Engineering

The halo of light closed behind him, and Bai Ye returned to the Holy of Holies once again. He turned his head and looked at the disappearing halo of light thoughtfully.

At this time, a sinister-looking man with light gray hair walked up to Bai Ye and asked in a low voice: "What did you and the Supreme Mage talk about?"

Bai Ye turned around and looked at the man. It turned out to be Casillas. Unexpectedly, he didn't just walk away, but stayed here waiting for her to come back.

It seems that even if this guy has no evil intentions, he already has his own little thoughts and wants to resurrect his lover.

Casillas was not a mage who had been trained since childhood. After his wife and son died due to various reasons, he was approached by Mordo in a bar to join Karma Taj.

So he seems less pure.

Bai Ye shrugged and said casually: "We were just talking about whether to install wifi in the Holy of Holies. As a modern person, you should also know how expensive it is to use data to watch videos online."

Casillas was stunned after hearing this, obviously not expecting Bai Ye to give such an answer.The evil light in his eyes flashed slightly, but he soon regained his composure.

He nodded, didn't ask any more questions, and walked away.

Bai Ye secretly sneered in his heart, this Casillas is indeed as ambitious as the future.However, if he wants to find out about Gu Yi, he will not succeed so easily.

After watching Casillas leave, he turned to shout: "Pietro!"

"coming!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a light blue figure suddenly appeared next to him. It was Kuaiyin who was wandering around again.

Bai Ye nodded, and the ring on his finger flashed, and a ball of silver light instantly enveloped the two of them. After a few seconds, the two people and the ball of light quickly faded until they disappeared completely.

At this time, Casillas, who had already gone away, came back again.

He looked at the place where Bai Ye and Pietro disappeared, with the gloomy expression still on his face.He seemed to be thinking deeply about something, with complicated emotions flashing in his eyes.

"Strange people." Casillas muttered, and took out a photo of a family of three from his arms. He gently touched the heads of the woman and boy in the photo with his fingertips and whispered:

"Maybe soon. Soon, we won't be able to meet each other only in dreams."

"Some of the knowledge in the world needs to be granted by others, and some..."

"You need to ask for it yourself."

The light dissipated, and Bai Ye and Pietro walked out of a large, boxy machine. They were surrounded by flashing numbers and a bright instrument panel, full of a sense of technology.

This place is a little different from when they left. It seems that the craftsmen have not been idle these days and have been upgrading the teleporter.

He shouted casually: "Artisan?"

The sound echoed in the metal passage, but there was no response.

Just when he was about to shout again, heavy footsteps sounded behind them.

They turned around and saw a man with a red headband on his forehead driving a bipedal mecha that was more than two people tall from the studio next door and opened the door.

The mecha made a harsh roar, making the ground tremble with every step.Despite its size, the mecha is very flexible and can even turn around in narrow passages.

The upper body of the mecha also had many small mechanical arms, which seemed to be used to assist its master.

<divclass="contentadv">"Ah, you are back." The craftsman looked at the two men with a smile, then pressed the machine on the operating table of the bipedal mecha, and raised the bumper protecting him, allowing him to jump down.

"How's it going over there? Is the new universe safe? I see you've been teleporting soldiers there during this time."

"Overall, there's not much danger, but we have new work to do."

Bai Ye raised the box full of samples in his hand to show it to the craftsman, and then turned towards the direction of the laboratory. Mr. Sinister must have made a lot of contributions these days.

The door of the laboratory is open, and it is filled with various complex equipment. You can see some scientific researchers wearing white lab coats busy doing various experiments.

There is a huge cylindrical jar in the center with smooth inner walls and small bubbles popping out.

In the jar, a man with a pale complexion and a mustache with a red diamond-shaped patch on his forehead was in a coma. His body was filled with various tubes, connected to various complex devices around him, and displayed readings.

Bai Ye looked around in a blink of an eye and saw that the chief scientist here and the White Queen who was responsible for instilling knowledge into the scientists were not here. He randomly pulled over a researcher and asked:

"Where's Walter?"

"He is in the restaurant. I will call him over for you right now, Emperor!" The researcher was obviously in awe of Bai Ye, and he replied with a trembling voice.

He quickly ran to the landline phone on the wall, raised it and dialed the number.He said a few words briefly, then hung up the phone and took a long breath, as if he had let go of a heavy burden in his heart.

Less than a minute later, the elevator door in the laboratory opened with a ding, and a bald middle-aged man wearing glasses ran out panting, followed by several equally nervous scientists.

Walter was a little nervous. Bai Ye, who was the lord of the entire wasteland, must have something important to do when he summoned him, so he didn't dare to neglect anything.

He quickly came to Bai Ye and asked seriously: "Emperor, is there anything you need me to do?"

Seeing Walter's anxious look, Bai Ye couldn't help but feel a little funny. He joked casually: "Don't be so anxious, be careful of appendicitis."

Walter adjusted his glasses and smiled without saying anything.

"How is the research on Mr. Sinister's mutant gene going?" Bai Ye asked.

"Oh, we are making very good progress." Walter said, waving to the scientists behind him, indicating that they were ready to start working, and then continued:

"With the information recovered from Mr. Sinister's lair and the information brought to us by Ms. Emma Frost, our research is progressing very quickly."

"So what's next?"

"We only need absolutely pure mutant genetic samples to start experiments." The bald scientist replied. What the Red Skull has done to mutants over the years has left a profound legacy.

There are probably only a few dozen mutants alive in the wasteland now, and most of them are very weak and not good experimental subjects.

What's the point of having thorns growing on people's heads, or turning into a lizard or a toad?Not every mutant has powerful abilities.

He continued: "However, there is no such thing in the wasteland. We have found Wolverine and several other mutants these days, but for safety reasons, no experiments have been carried out."

Bai Ye smiled slightly, raised the box in his hand and said:

"Is that so? Then, the mutant gene you need is here."
