Shadow of the Beautiful World

We have to be more patient than him to deal with the hunter well, and we have to be more careful if we are going to set traps.

Code-named Speaker, the voice of Alexander Pierce, who is actually the chairman of the World Security Council, rang in the ears of Mrs. Hydra who was resurrected from the dead and occupied the body of poor Ms. Lars:

We want to use him to clear some obstacles and lure him into a trap. I will do this.

But the last failure has proved what I have always maintained. Conspiracies and tricks alone will not accomplish anything. We still need some power, some extra, some extraordinary power.

Pierce took a sip of his wine and said:

This matter has to be handed over to professional people, and this is also something you need to deal with in the next period of time.

Tell me the truth, Pierce.

Mrs. Larson said with some disgust:

I'm not going to do it with you anymore, I have more important things to do.

No, ma'am, you're just a little angry now, feeling like you've been abandoned, but it's not like that, let me persuade you.

Pierce seemed to have anticipated the thoughts of the leader of the dark wizard, he said slowly:

On the North American continent, the last stronghold of dark wizards, the Spellcasters Guild in Port Brimstone, was taken over by him a month ago in conjunction with the Magic Association. 80% of your most loyal and secretive subordinates They were all sent to the Arcatraz, and 10% were directly sent to the gallows, well, I acquiesced in this matter.

The dark wizards in Europe have also been attacked by the Ministry of Magic of various countries and the European branch of S.H.I.E.L.D. in the past few years. They had to flee in a hurry. Guess, ma'am, who issued the hunting order?

you

Mrs. Larson gritted her teeth and said:

Are you giving advice?

I just wanted to remind you

Pierce said:

We live in this unfree world. Everyone has to make some decisions that they don't like. I mean, it's not up to you. I gave your subordinates the chance to revive you, ma'am, but as long as I Make a phone call, and the person you fear the most will appear in front of you again within a minute, and this time, no one will save you again.

Then let's die!

Lady Hydra is not an easy character either, she said:

You can try whether it's faster for you to call, or for me to give your real identity to that person! Don't threaten me, Pierce, don't threaten a wizard!

Hehe, whatever you want.

Pierce laughed and said:

You can go and inform me casually. If you can persuade him to believe that I am the supreme leader of Hydra, then I am willing to kill you. Who do you think he will trust more? You? Or me?

The two stalemate for a moment, and Pierce took the initiative to say:

Okay, we are all on the same boat, and the broken boat is starting to leak. If we don't abandon our conflicts, clarify each other's needs and work together, what awaits us will all be drowned. .”

Ma'am, listen to me. I'm not threatening you just to threaten you. I just want you to know how bad the situation is now, so that you can restrain your domineering style and really keep a low profile. Ordinary and low-key are Our best protection, if you calm down, I will tell you about your next mission.

If you are still not calm, then I can only give up on you.

Fu

In the dark basement, Mrs. Larson stared at the red skull and octopus emblem on the opposite wall. After a while, she took a deep breath and said:

Tell me, what do you need me to do?

Very well, I knew that you, who can become the leader of the dark wizard, are definitely not a reckless person.

Pierce said:

What I need you to do is very simple. As I said before, you can't achieve great things by relying on conspiracy and tricks. We need extraordinary power. I mean, the power that really belongs to us and is loyal to us. Conservative aliens only Worship their gods, and in our future order, there is no place for 'gods', they cannot be trusted, they need to be sacrificed.

And their sacrifice and counterattack before dying can buy us enough time, ma'am, I need you to use this last time to make us our own super fighter!

etc!

Mrs. Larson interrupted Pierce, she said doubtfully:

Hasn't the Horntail Serum been in your hands? Damn it, I've had bad luck because of this damn thing. Don't tell me that the serum test failed?

No, it's still there, but I can't risk using it until there's a bloody bayonet battle between the two sides.

Pierce was a little regretful, and said with some regret:

Had I known the joints in it, I would not have allowed you to launch that attack because of this stupid serum. It almost destroyed us completely. The anger and hatred that burst out of that man's heart was like wildfire , makes people fearful, and makes us completely cut off the possibility of joint with him, what a pity it would be if he was on our side.

Hehe, this shows that you are not omniscient, Mr. Pierce.

Mrs. Larson said sarcastically:

I hope that when you plan your plan this time, you have considered all unexpected factors. I don't want to die again because of your negligence. I am very weak now.

Don't worry, you won't be shown in public this time.

Pierce quickly restrained his senseless regret, and said calmly:

He is really capable, but his ability can also be used by us. In the process of suppressing the mob in Sulfur Harbor, because of him, we collected some useful things, and soon someone will put those things Send it to you.

What is it?

Mrs. Larson asked:

I'll have to do an assessment first.

It's some biological samples.

Pierce said:

The biologists of S.H.I.E.L.D. told me that those samples contained a special gene fragment that could allow living organisms to evolve almost infinitely. I also consulted some professionals. He told me that if the direction of infinite evolution If it is controllable, then it is very simple to create a batch of super soldiers.

It's not that easy!

Mrs. Larson is not only a dark wizard, she is also an excellent biologist, she said to Pierce:

Not to mention whether the gene fragment is as miraculous as you said, just talking about gene transplantation and directional cultivation, which requires too much energy and resources, and this kind of thing, judging from the current level of technology, it is more like It's luck.

Hit luck? No.

Pierce shook his head:

I found you an assistant, his name is Jason Wood, a guy I fished out of the Arkham Asylum in Gotham City, a genius biologist, he told me that his knowledge of plant toxins The research results can help us realize the controllable transplantation of gene fragments in a short period of time, I don’t know if what he said is true or not, but I don’t mind giving it a try.”

Also, the a.i.m, which was suppressed by that person and Fury, had to go underground, was also forced to throw an olive branch to us under difficult circumstances. They want to return to Hydra's command. I have agreed. Yes. In the research blueprint of a.i.m, there are also many research results of biological enhancement, and they will also assist you in completing this matter.

I have already prepared an underground laboratory for you in the mountains of Colorado, and registered a medical company. The person in charge of the company will write your name, as long as you don't show yourself too much. Believe me, no People will find out that you have returned.

All right.

Seeing that Pierce had planned so solidly, Mrs. Larson no longer had the idea to refute.

After all, situations are stronger than people, and in this case, bowing your head is not a stupid choice.

Besides the genetic fragments of endless evolution, there is one more thing. In fact, the reason why I resurrected you at this moment is precisely because of it.

Pierce said:

After all, professional things should be handed over to professional people.

While you were sleeping, the mythical vampire Dracula tried to take over Port Brimstone, but the high-profile, stupid vampire was soon defeated by that man and his righteous companions, but, like the infinitely evolved Like genetic fragments, Lord Dracula, also left us some 'inheritance'.

Our agents worked hard to capture a few samples from those blood phantoms

it's useless.

Mrs. Larson said to Pierce helplessly:

I know Dracula's blood river ability. The Dark God Book once told me that these blood phantoms are just the manifestation of Dracula's power, and have nothing to do with his body. I guess, the few phantoms you captured are now Breaking down fast, right?

Um.

Pierce represented his answer with a nasal sound.

That's normal. Without the control of Dracula himself, you don't need to do it. Those irrational illusions can't live for a month.

But we have something else.

Pierce added:

Several aliens caught by Dracula were taken in by us when they fled, and their bodies were injected with Dracula's source blood

Huh? Source blood

Mrs. Larson narrowed her eyes and said:

If it's source blood, then it's not impossible, but I still need a few pure-blood vampires as samples. You have to know, Pierce, to revive such a legendary vampire requires a lot of things and very complicated steps. , The fatality rate and out-of-control rate are also very good, you'd better prepare a few more samples.

OK.

Pierce said:

The samples you need will be sent directly to your laboratory in a few days.

The speaker's voice stopped, and after a while, he said:

That's all I have to say. Is there anything else you want to add?

have!

Larson replied:

I have two requests.

First, while I'm helping you, you also have to help me. I need the knowledge of the dark divine book. That book is still in this world. I can feel it. You have to help me find it.

Second, it is related to the experiment you want me to do. In order to ensure that those samples can last longer, and also to ensure their future actual combat capabilities, I need some additional gene fragments. Some gene fragments with self-healing properties you Have you ever heard of a mutant named Logan who is so self-healing that he is almost immortal?

There was a twinkle in Mrs. Larson's eye, and she said:

I want his blood, the more the better!

Okay, I'll figure it out.

Pierce readily agreed, and he urged:

It's best not to stay on the east coast. It's not safe here. After you recover, go to Colorado.

Um.

Mrs. Lars nodded, and at the final stage of the conversation, she asked again:

What's the name of that place? And don't tell me which company you gave me, you gave it a weird name again.

No, not at all.

Pierce said softly:

I gave it a great name, Protector of the Umbrella New Order.

As for your lab, it's in a place called Raccoon City.

Raccoon City? Never heard of it.

Hehe, isn't that better?

That was the first time I saw so many people die and be displaced because of me. The strong sense of guilt made me almost unable to breathe.

In the lobby of the mysterious house, Merlin was lying on the sofa, and he told the story of his past in a low tone. Judging from his expression, this kind of open chat made Merlin's mental state better.

But instead, on the sofa next to him, Miss Zatanna's expression was not very good-looking.

She is a sensitive person with a valuable empathic character, and she was attracted by Merlin's story, which is a bumpy story full of darkness but also a glimmer of hope and light.

It was also at that time that I finally realized that when you are faced with the problems that are chasing after you, running away is not going to solve the problem.

Merlin says:

You can only choose to face it, or continue to allow innocent people to die because of you, and then live your life as a coward and sinner in the shadow of those deaths.

I chose to face it. I am very grateful for the choice at that time. It made me who I am now. At least a sharp part of my character comes from the choice at that time.

Having said that, Merlin suddenly opened his eyes, he turned his head to look at Zatana, he said with a smile:

It's late at night, Zatanna, it's time for you to go home. Thank you for listening to my babble.

No, no, we still have time.

Zatana looked at her watch in a hurry. Less than an hour had passed, and she was still far away from the 8-hour limit of being alone. What's more, if you can't finish listening to the story, you can't follow the story. Design a hypnotic method to complete the in-depth communication between her and Merlin at the spiritual level.

Miss Magician coughed a few times, stretched out her hand solemnly, and pushed Merlin, who was trying to get up, back on the sofa again. She sat beside Merlin, with the scent of violet flowers lingering, and she said to Merlin seriously:

I'm a doctor, you're a patient, Merlin, listen to me.

Finish the story

The night is still long, and we still have time.
