Marvel: It Starts with a Spell

The camp has been built in a proper manner. Those primitive people are detained in a temporary prison, that is, they are locked in tents in a corner of the tribe with wooden fences, and they are not allowed to move freely. As for food, they are synthetic foods, and they are not allowed to eat too much, otherwise they will cause trouble.

Li Huang threw the huge Tyrannosaurus Rex into the camp and asked the chef to take the meat for cooking. The chef cut up the huge dinosaur and began to fry and cook it in the camp. A strange fragrance wafted out.

Eating dinosaur meat for the first time made these modern researchers and mercenaries very excited. They should be the first people in the world to eat real prehistoric animals. Although the quality of the meat was not as magical as they had imagined, the curiosity had made up for that little regret.

I don't know if it's because of their living environment, but these dinosaurs need to exercise frequently and a lot, so there is very little fat in their meat. You should know that the deliciousness of meat has a lot to do with fat. The famous Wagyu beef is famous for its marbling fat. The same goes for Li Huang's favorite pork belly. The fat not only makes the meat softer, but also enhances the taste of the meat.

The fat content of these dinosaur meats is very low, and it tastes a bit like rough turkey or low-grade beef. However, because these dinosaurs have a unique taste, Li Huang defines it as a wild taste. The unique taste of dinosaurs makes up for the lack of meat quality. Anyway, there are no babies present, so even if the meat quality is a little worse, no one cares. As long as the taste is good enough, there is no problem.

Li Huang took a large piece of barbecue and sat next to Dr. Otto: "Doctor, how do you feel?"

"The meat is delicious. As for this island, if it weren't for the fact that we can't connect to the satellite and there are many dangers here, this place would be a paradise. I think the problem affecting our signal is the magnetic field of this sea area. Maybe we can conduct research and crack the magnetic field." Otto was cutting a steak.

"Doctor, I think if we destroy the magnetic field here, the animals on the island will probably leave the island and enter human society. Who knows what kind of trouble will happen."

"That's true, but we can only achieve communication within the magnetic field."

"I think this is a good idea." Li Huang thought of Umbrella's model. They controlled Raccoon City, but there were still certain risks since it was on the mainland after all.

But the location of Skull Island is different. Skull Island is surrounded by the sea and has a natural magnetic field barrier. It is naturally a good choice to establish a base here.

"I'll have Tony send someone over right away, and Vought Company will make its first fortune from this island."

"Um, boss, I have something to ask." Otto poked the piece of meat on the plate.

"explain."

"Could you please not let me, a PhD in physics, study biology? My research field is too different from those researchers'."

Li Huang was most afraid of the sudden silence in the air. Only then did he realize that Otto didn't seem to be a biological researcher.

"Well, okay, Doctor, but I hope you can stay on the island, because this will become the headquarters of Water Company, and Water Company can also support you in the research you are going to conduct." Li Huang said sincerely.

"Of course, boss, I will stay here. This place is still very suitable for me. I can continue to work on my inventions."

"Just control it." Li Huang didn't want Otto's artificial sun to destroy the entire island.

"Yes, boss."

Li Huang is actually very optimistic about Otto's artificial sun. You know, it is a new energy source. If handled properly, maybe their energy industry can compete with Tony's for the market.

A technological light flashed, Tony put down the tools in his hand, and in front of him was a silver-white half-body armor.

"The shock absorption system needs to be improved again, and an air filtration system needs to be installed, and..."

"Sir, Mr. Li Huang appears in your living room." Jarvis suddenly interrupted.

"What is this guy doing..." Tony muttered, and climbed up from the basement to the living room on the first floor. As soon as he entered the living room, Tony smelled a strange meaty aroma: "Hey, Li Huang, I think my security system can be changed to a food delivery system. Also, what's that in your hand?"

"Dinosaur meat, do you want to try it?" Tony in front of Li Huang had bloodshot eyes, two huge dark circles under his eyes, and messy hair stuck to his scalp. I wonder what those who admired him would think if they saw it.

"Dinosaur meat, let me try it. What kind of dragon is it, Brontosaurus? Stegosaurus? Triceratops?" Tony took the dinosaur meat and ate it with relish.

"This thing is not that delicious. It's just a little older than ordinary meat and has a special taste." Tony said vaguely.

"It's grown in the wild, that's enough. We can wait until we start breeding dinosaurs before pursuing more tender and delicious meat."

You know, the animals we commonly eat now have all been selected and bred for tens of millions of years. Take pork for example, wild boars are not as delicious as domesticated pigs. Maybe in the future they will be able to raise dinosaurs on a large scale and breed better-tasting meat dinosaurs like they breed pigs.

"By the way, what are you busy with? Look in the mirror and see how you look now."

"Of course I'm busy with my secret invention. After a while, I will definitely surprise you. By the way, have you explored the island? Why are you back so soon?"

"The advance base has been built, and now we can transport supplies and personnel inside. I will do my best to eliminate the dangerous factors that ordinary people cannot cope with, and leave the rest to the mercenaries. After all, they are not hired to get money for nothing." Li Huang was not satisfied with these guys.

"Okay, I'll send the people over right away. Remember to send the first batch of ships back so that we can find a safe passage." Tony ate voraciously, as if he hadn't eaten for a while. He was so devoted to the work that he forgot to eat and sleep.

"No problem." Li Huang agreed readily.

Li Huang returned to the camp. Wade was arranging the night watch with others. After nightfall, except for the soldiers on duty, everyone else went to bed early. They had seen too many miracles today and were exhausted. They all needed a good sleep so that they could start new work with full energy tomorrow.

Li Huang didn't know how long he had slept before he was awakened by gunshots. He immediately got up, dressed, and went outside. The sky was still pitch black, but there were lights in the camp. He could see clearly that in the inner passage of the tribe, the soldiers were shooting with guns, and the soldiers on the city wall were also firing outside the wall.

The flashes of bullets, accompanied by loud noises, could be heard from far away in the silent night.

As the gunshots rang out, more and more soldiers came out of the tents, holding guns and running towards the passage entrance and the city wall. The researchers also woke up and looked outside with a little worry. They were not combatants and could only worry in the camp.

"What happened?"

Otto asked, running out in his vest.

"Dr. Otto, boss, please go back to the camp. It's not safe here. We are fighting some bugs on the island." Wade said seriously.

"Bugs?" Otto was surprised. Was it necessary to treat such a small bug as a threat?

"Yes, our night watchmen discovered the incoming bugs right away. It's a pity that we don't have insecticide this time, otherwise we would have been able to resolve the battle quickly." Wade was as talkative as ever.

Li Huang immediately thought of the bugs in the movies. Those bugs were N times larger than the original ones. The crickets were as big as wolfhounds, not to mention other bugs. How could these bugs come to attack here?

Li Huang appeared on the city wall and saw dense swarms of insects pouring out from the forest below and starting to crawl towards the city wall. Countless bullets hit these insects, breaking them into pieces and splashing mucus. It looked quite disgusting. Although they were well-armed and had fierce firepower, there were so many of them that some of them had already begun to climb the city wall. The big hole that was blown out by the mercenaries when they attacked the primitive tribe during the day was now flooded with a swarm of insects.

The influx of insects revealed their full appearance under the light, which startled everyone. Looking at the mouthparts of those insects, if they were the original size, they would not be so scary, but after being magnified thousands of times, they looked so creepy. Although they could break the body of the insect with one shot, if these insects rushed over, they would probably be able to drown them in an instant and gnaw them into bones. The same would be true for the whole world. Think about the frequent locust plagues. After the locust plagues, no grass would grow. If the locusts all over the sky could eat people, would humans be the same as crops...

After seeing this, Li Huang immediately joined the battle and attacked the insects.

"Dragon Blast!"

A beam of orange energy appeared on his palm, blasting a group of insects into pieces, relieving some of the pressure on the soldiers, but more insects still rushed over.

"Everyone, open fire without restriction! Do not use explosives against the city walls!" Li Huang gave the order, and grenades, rocket launchers, and incendiary grenades exploded in the pile of insects, turning the insects into pieces on the ground. After dealing with the insect tide, he climbed up the city wall and began to supervise the battle.

Li Huang fired blue energy bombs and red beams of light at the same time, like a rail gun, causing an explosion at the edge of the forest, and the impact of the insects was instantly interrupted.

The primitive people were also awakened by the fierce gunfire and explosions. They were very familiar with these things. Whenever they encountered them while hunting, few of the tribesmen would be able to return. Now these insects were attacking the camp. These white people and everyone in their tribe might have to go to see their ancestors together tonight. Many primitive people have already prayed to their gods, hoping that they could save themselves from the fire and water.

"Boss, leave some living bugs. The mutations of these bugs are worth studying!" Li Huang heard someone shouting from behind. He wondered which researcher was still thinking about doing scientific research at this time.

However, those insects can actually grow so big. This kind of mutation is very rare, because the body structure of the insects is not enough to support them to grow too large. The insects here are already a bit against the laws of nature. It is normal for researchers to want to study such insects when they see them.

"Once the threat is resolved, we will give you some live test subjects."

Scorpions half as tall as a person, centipedes two or three meters long, and strange cricket-like insects the size of truck tires all rushed here at once, making people feel cold all over and get goose bumps.

"How disgusting! You should drink some 7.62mm insecticide!" Wade kept talking and his firepower increased, causing a large number of insects to scream in pain.

"Another barbecue set. Oh, fuck, you look scary!" An incendiary grenade smashed into the pile of insects, igniting a bunch of insects. The half-human-high scorpion instantly began to twist, and its back began to crackle. The scorpion pounced in Wade's direction, and Wade shot a string of bullets into its body...

There were gunshots and explosions everywhere, but Li Huang was in overall control of the situation. He would lend a helping hand wherever he saw the situation was unfavorable, using either dragon or pig talismans, or blue light blades or energy explosions to drive back the insect tide.

I don't know how many bugs I killed. After fighting for more than an hour, the bugs finally retreated, leaving behind a smelly pile of bug remains and mucus.

Looking at the piles of debris and red and green mucus, Li Huang somehow thought of the fried insects he had eaten before.

Those little things were so crispy and delicious, but now seeing these bugs, he has lost his appetite. These arthropods are really disgusting after they grow bigger. Even if these bugs are high in protein, he has no desire to eat them. I'm afraid that even the legendary beheading expert Bear Grylls would not be able to eat them.

Looking at those researchers carefully searching for living insects among the insect corpses, Li Huang didn't know whether he should praise their courage and research spirit, or call them a group of research lunatics.

After the sudden attack, everyone's sleepiness disappeared without a trace. It was already past three in the morning and everyone started to wash up and get ready to work.

The group of researchers actually caught a few living insects. Although they were injured, they still showed signs of life. They happily went into the simple temporary room and began to treat the insects, preparing to use them for research to see what kind of mutations had occurred in the genes of these insects and whether they could affect other organisms.

After such an unexpected incident, they intensified the night watch. Nearly half of the mercenaries came to keep watch, leaving the non-combat personnel and the other half to rest. Li Huang lay there in a daze for several hours until dawn.

After daybreak, everyone had breakfast and took turns on duty. They used drones to scout the nearby situation. Today they had to deal with the dangerous factors nearby to avoid being caught off guard like they did tonight.
