[Comprehensive British and American] Daniel Phillips

Chap.65 Proteus

As Daniel said, Kevin Mark Taggart, who has transformed into a full energy body, cannot maintain this state for a long time. Once he is eroded in the changing external environment, his life will be threatened, which is why Mo The reason why La MacTaggart kept him in the laboratory—before an effective method could be found to help him stabilize his physical state, the external radiation and air oxidation might kill him.

After escaping from the laboratory, Kevin did not leave immediately, but wandered around there.Because he has a mother who is an agent, he has been familiar with it since he was a child, and he also knows that the invasion of the laboratory is definitely not a simple matter. Sure enough, 15 minutes after the explosion, a team wearing fire suits did not look like firefighters. The 20-member team entered the explosion site.They seemed to be searching for something, and became more cautious after finding their safe cabin, which made Kevin believe that the group of people came for him.

He thanked them for allowing himself to escape this suffocating environment.Although the laboratory is safe, he has to endure the pain of his body being torn apart by energy every day. Muscles and bones are crushed to pieces in one second, and they are restored to intact in the next second. This kind of pain is like using a knife to go back and forth on the nerves. It's the same as cutting back.As time went by, his state of mind also began to distort. He hated his parents for giving him such a body and genes, hated Mora for leaving him in the laboratory, and even began to hate the world and all mutants. People.

"No trace of him was found. His body should have been reduced to ashes after leaving the safety cabin." It was Rumlow, who had just participated in the Greenwich Incident, who led the team. After losing his most powerful assistant, Gerry, After Luo, although Alexander Pierce sent another equally outstanding Hydra agent Johnson, Rumlow was still not used to cooperating with strangers, but this operation was handpicked by Alexander Pierce, and he had to go this trip.

"The data show that he can transform into the purest energy body, and maybe he has escaped after the explosion." Johnson walked up to Rumlow with the tablet, "Look."

After the explosion, they intercepted all the monitoring images in the laboratory, copied all the data, and destroyed them. What Johnson showed him was the image captured by the surveillance cameras when the safety hatch opened at the moment of the explosion, and a blue-green energy body gushed out. .Rumlow nodded to his team members, and someone brought in an instrument and began to conduct a complete scan of the ruins.

Kevin could feel a sense of uneasiness, and he quickly fled to an area where the equipment could not detect, just in time to see an Asian woman in a gray dress walking into the scene.She has long black hair and a graceful figure, but her eyes are icy iron gray, and her eyes are full of wildness.Perhaps it was the special induction between mutants. Kevin recognized that this woman should be the same kind of person as himself. Seeing that he had lost one-fifth of his energy, he directly crashed into this place without hesitation. In the human body!

"Yuriko, why are you here?" When Rumlow came out, he saw Yuriko standing outside at first sight. At first, he thought that this woman was just Alexander Pierce's mistress, until he saw her fighting power with his own eyes.The remodeled Yuriko has made great progress in terms of movement speed and lethality. The Adamantium alloy that was originally located between the fingers was extracted and re-injected into the nails. Her ten fingers are now deadly weapons.

"The boss asked me to check on the progress." The moment of dazedness caused by entering the body has passed, "Yuriko" licked his lips, walked over with a smile, and said to Rumlow, "It seems that you didn't find anything. "

Her smile was a little unsuitable, with an inexplicable danger, Rumlow narrowed his eyes slightly, he unconsciously touched the penis tied to his thigh, but he had already adjusted the current situation to the highest state of alert in his heart .

When Tony Stark came to school in his famous Lamborghini, he happened to meet Maura MacTaggart leaving. For the time being, no one fell into deeper despair after finding Kevin, apparently not noticing that the man wearing sunglasses in front of him was the famous Iron Man.But Tony Stark is no stranger to her. When he was in the second grade of middle school more than ten years ago, he had hacked into the FBI internal network and looked through the information of all senior agents. The lady in front of him was one of them.

But this did not attract Tony Stark's attention. You must know that although many official organizations are secretive about mutants on the surface, they will cooperate secretly. This is why the "Mutant Registration Act" has been deadlocked and failed to pass. reason.

"You're Tony Stark?" A girl who looked only fifteen or sixteen years old had sharp eyes and recognized him immediately, "Iron Man, right?"

Tony Stark took off his sunglasses to reveal his signature caramel-colored eyes, causing the girl in front of him to scream out loud.When Daniel rushed over, he saw his friends taking selfies and signing autographs with the students. It was obvious that Tony Stark was very contented, as if this was not the base camp of mutants, but the scene of the Iron Man fan meeting.

"I thought you would call me before you came again, instead of texting me when you got to the gate." Daniel touched his turtleneck sweater, the hickey mark Bucky left on his neck last night hadn't faded yet, He had to come out in a sweater that didn't fit the season, "Fricken let you out?"

"I'm not the captain, and Fury has no right to keep me in S.H.I.E.L.D." Tony Stark said while waving at the students, "It was you who ran away without saying hello to me, which made me Thought something happened to you."

"I asked the captain to explain to you. You know, I can't be exposed to S.H.I.E.L.D. for too long." Daniel walked around the campus with his friends, "Charles asked me to say sorry to you, he I can't come out to receive you because I have something important to do."

"It's okay, I just came to see you." Tony Stark turned his eyes around Daniel before saying, "Why are you wearing a sweater, is it cold?"

Daniel froze for a moment, but he quickly relaxed his body and said, "It's just a cold."

Tony Stark glanced at him suspiciously, almost bewildered Daniel, before nodding his head to accept the statement.He didn't have any important things to come here this time, he just wanted to ensure Daniel's safety.The charming Black Widow once joked that he was Daniel's "chicken mother", who had to protect Daniel no matter what happened, but he didn't dislike the title.

"I just met FBI agents at the door, did the X-Men cooperate with them recently?" Tony Stark asked.

"This is their business, I can't say too much." Daniel didn't want to make this matter public, "By the way, did the people from S.H.I.E.L.D. embarrass you after I left?"

"No." Tony Stark shrugged, "Even Fury didn't say anything, probably busy with the 'insight plan'. Even Coulson seldom appears recently. I asked Natasha, and she said Ferry sent both Coulson and Hill out, but no one knows exactly why."

It appears Fury took his words to heart.Daniel nodded, and was about to say something, but was interrupted by the ringtone of the mobile phone that Tony Stark remembered in his pocket.His bell is as flamboyant as his own personality, and the dynamic melody echoes in the empty campus.

Daniel suddenly remembered a comment Natasha Romanov made to her friend: a man with his own BGM.He silently watched Tony Stark answer the phone, inexplicably feeling that Natasha's words were not unreasonable.But the Stark genius who answered the phone didn't have the complacency just now. Daniel could see his friend's relaxed look turned serious in an instant. He didn't ask until Tony Stark finished talking: "What happened?" What's up?"

"It's Rumlow," Tony Stark frowned, "he's dead."

It was a homeless man who found Rumlow's body. This senior Hydra agent and the captain of the S.H.I.E.L.D. Rapid Response Force was found dead in a remote back alley. His body was covered with scars cut by sharp knives, and fatal wounds ran through his body. The heart left five small holes on the body, as if it was inserted straight into the heart with a fingernail.

"What kind of weapon would cause such a wound?" Fury glanced at the deep scars on Rumlow's face, the pale flesh turned outward, revealing the dark red muscles inside.Blood mixed with sewage spread a large pool of water on the ground, his eyes were still wide open, as if he didn't understand why he was killed.

"It's hard to identify, I've never seen such a wound." Natasha Romanov stretched out her hand to compare the position of the heart of the corpse, and suddenly bent her finger to rest on the wound, and unexpectedly found that there was an 80.00% match, "It must be a joke, fingernails?"

"Maybe it's a metal weapon on his hand." Clint Barton looked up and looked around. "This is a dead corner for monitoring, and the back alley can lead to any street. It is difficult for us to identify the suspect."

"It may also be a mutant." Fury remembered that Charles Xavier had a mutant who could freely control metal claws. The scars on Rumlow's body were very similar to those caused by the mutant. "We need to go to Wester Stuart go."

Natasha Romanoff and Clint Barton looked at each other, and finally the red-haired agent said: "I don't think the X-Men did it."

"I didn't say it was them." Fury had already turned and left, "I just went for a consultation."

Black Widow and Hawkeye quickly followed.
