Chapter 394 The Man of the Pillar
"No, the other party is still alive!"
However, Doctor Doom's thoughts hadn't settled yet.
Dr. Zola scanned the situation of the mysterious creature through the equipment installed in the laboratory. The image on the screen showed human surprise: "Not only did it survive, but its body was struck by lightning. It is also recovering rapidly at an unimaginable speed. How is this possible? To support such a powerful healing ability, it has far exceeded the limit of biological cells and requires consumption..."
"Life force."
Hearing Dr. Zola's exclamation, Susan immediately thought of the strange radiation power that she and Reed had discovered in the meteorite.
If the power of radiation can make a broken leg grow a new one, then it can naturally recover from Doctor Doom's lightning attack.
Automatically ignoring the second half of Dr. Zola's self-talk with obvious research meaning, listening to the other party's reminder, Dr. Destruction gritted his teeth and once again activated the lightning in his body to form a dense current, and looked at the mysterious creature without blinking. The direction in which you were hit.
"Really recovered?!"
A few seconds later, just as Dr. Zola described, the mysterious creature that had been electrocuted by Doctor Doom's current once again stood in front of him intact.
Turning his head and glancing at Doctor Doom who was facing a formidable enemy, the mysterious creature looked down at his slender and perfect palms and clenched his fists.
Crackling!
The next moment, a strong electric current emerged from the mysterious creature's arm that was as strong as Doctor Doom's.
"What?!"
Seeing the electric current emerging from the mysterious creature, Doctor Doom's expression under the steel mask could no longer maintain his indifferent expression: "Could this creature still have the ability to imitate!"
"Dr. Zola!"
The ability to imitate the mysterious creatures not only disturbed Dr. Doom, but also panicked everyone in the Hydra base.
Straker looked at the lightning wrapped around the mysterious creature, and the cold expression on his face suddenly changed, and he quickly shouted.
"Sorry, Straker, the various abilities displayed by this creature are far beyond the scope of my research..."
In the final analysis, Dr. Zola is a technologically advanced researcher. Even if he has some understanding of biology due to his relationship with Hydra, he is far from a professional. What's more, even if a professional biologist observes the abilities displayed by mysterious creatures, he may not be able to see much useful things.
As the extractor of the card, Li Ran naturally knew that [Kaz] in the laboratory did not have the so-called imitation ability as predicted by Doctor Doom.
However, relying on this characteristic of the ultimate creature, Li Ran was unable to create a large amount of lightning like Doctor Doom. However, it is still possible to change the muscle cells of the clone so that it can form electricity-generating muscles similar to those of an electric eel in the body, thereby achieving the performance of generating electricity in the eyes of Doctor Destruction.
Randomly changing the cell structure of the body to the extent of generating electricity, as everyone in the Hydra base watched in horror, the mysterious creature released its hands and put away the electricity on its arms, and then spoke with a dissatisfied expression. A few sentences: "*￥ # （&*……"
Naturally, no one in the laboratory can understand the language spoken by the mysterious creature.
He opened his mouth and said a few words, but noticed that everyone around him had no response to his inquiries.
The expression on the mysterious creature's handsome, non-human face changed slightly, and the next second its tall body disappeared from everyone's gaze.
"What?!"
Seeing the mysterious creature disappearing, the expression on Straker's face suddenly changed.
"Where is he? I kept staring at him without even blinking. How did such a tall figure disappear so early!"
"Where is he!"
Frowning,
Although the mysterious creature is fast, it is not able to avoid the eyes of everyone in the laboratory.
At least in the eyes of the silver-haired man, he could clearly see the movement trajectory of the other party.
At the silver-haired man's reminder, Straker and the others quickly reacted and looked in the direction he was pointing. Immediately, he saw the mysterious creature that disappeared in an instant appearing in a twisted and weird posture behind a Hydra researcher who was unaware of the expression. He opened his arms and hugged the researcher tightly. In my arms.
"This is, like the corpse on the meteorite before, he is eating the researchers. What kind of creature is this? It actually uses humans as its own food in such a weird way. He uses his entire body to eat the research of Hydra. The person is integrated into his own body, which means that he... he is eating in this way... This is a creature that feeds on humans. In his eyes, humans are just a kind of food..."
Witnessing with his own eyes the process of the mysterious creature dissolving Hydra researchers into his body, Doctor Doom understood why he felt suppressed when facing the opponent before.
Perhaps, as Straker said, this is the cry from the top of the food chain that is engraved deep in his cells.
"Reed, what kind of monster were we studying before?"
Looking at the researcher who was completely swallowed into the body by the mysterious creature, there was a clear look of fear in the depths of Susan's eyes.
Although, theoretically speaking, researchers who can become Hydra cannot be benevolent beings, especially the researchers who were reused by Strucker, all of whom, without exception, had participated in the previous tragic human body wars about the power of the scepter. experiment. But witnessing a living human being being integrated into the other person's body was still a bit too much of a challenge to Susan's psychological endurance.
"He...his body is getting bigger. This is a complete monster..."
The sight of mysterious creatures merging with researchers in the Hydra base seemed to have completely defeated the remaining sanity of the Hydra soldiers. They may be cruel and show no mercy to their opponents, but that doesn't mean they can still be cold and calm when facing a creature that can devour them.
Seeing a living companion being swallowed by the creature that came out of the meteorite in front of them, the nerves they had been tense with were instantly shattered. They didn't know which soldier fired the first shot.
Immediately afterwards, these soldiers holding submachine guns raised their firearms and fired the replaced bullets towards the mysterious creature in front of them.
"It's useless. It has been proven just now that bullets cannot destroy this creature at all."
A large number of bullets fell on the mysterious creature like raindrops. However, Doctor Doom looked at the tall figure covered with bullet holes, but there was no trace of joy on his expression under the steel mask.
Standing on the spot, letting a large number of bullets from the Hydra soldiers hit his body, the mysterious creature looked at the submachine guns that continued to emit flames in the soldiers' hands, and then raised his palm and pointed his index finger at the people in front of him.
"Why is he making that gesture? What does it mean?"
Looking at the movements made by the mysterious creature, Straker looked puzzled.
"No, he is imitating..."
Looking at the gesture of the mysterious creature's hand, the expression on Susan's pale face changed. She frowned and said, "That gesture represents a pistol. He is imitating the pistol with his own hands."
Under the current situation, Susan could no longer care about her situation as a prisoner of Hydra. If the mysterious creature in front of her was allowed to get out of the Hydra base, she simply couldn't imagine the possible consequences. After all, this is a terrifying existence that uses humans as food.
"Imitation pistol?"
Upon hearing Susan's speculation, Strucker frowned.
If he could barely accept the opponent's ability to imitate Doctor Doom before, then how could a creature with a pistol imitate the ability of a firearm.
boom!
The doubts in Straker's heart did not linger for too long. The next second, as the mysterious creature on the opposite side stopped its finger, only a strange expansion sound was heard, and the tip of the mysterious creature's index finger exploded instantly. , and then a brass-colored bullet was fired, accurately hitting a Hydra soldier on the opposite side.
"He was actually able to control the bullets that entered his body and fire them back again with his fingertips!"
Seeing the scene of the mysterious creature shooting, the image of Dr. Zola on the screen couldn't help but look shocked.
Bang-bang-bang-bang-
Through his own fingers, he sent a large number of bullets in his body back to the Hydra soldiers in front of him one by one.
The mysterious creature retracted its finger, and the burst wound on the fingertip instantly recovered. It turned to look at the only dozen survivors in the laboratory, and finally set its sights on Straker.
"Is it... you... who woke me up?"
Under the protection of Wanda's power, Straker was not hit by the flying bullets, but when he heard the words from the mysterious creature's mouth, the expression on his face suddenly changed.
"You learned our language? When!"
"Just before...I ate it...that guy learned it later."
At first, the mysterious creature's words were a bit choppy, but soon it was able to communicate smoothly like normal humans.
Speaking fluent English, the mysterious creature looked at everyone in the laboratory. His eyes paused for a moment on the red energy emitted by Wanda's hand, but he quickly retracted it and looked down at the Hydra soldiers on the ground. Their bodies finally fell on the submachine guns they were carrying.
Stretch out your arm continuously, grab the submachine gun on the ground and go back.
"This is the first time I've seen it. This is a tool I've never seen before, and it can actually cause harm to me."
He tilted his head and looked at the submachine gun in his hand. The mysterious creature grabbed the slot of the submachine gun. In the next moment, his hands seemed to move smoothly and decomposed the firearm into countless parts. Then he reassembled it in an instant and became the previous one. appearance.
"This is something that would take ordinary people hours or even days to disassemble and assemble, but he actually did it in just a few seconds."
Seeing the submachine gun disassembled and reassembled in the hands of the mysterious creature, the expression on Strack's face was extremely shocked.
"This is a creature with intelligence, even far beyond human intelligence..."
"Is it really a space creature from outside the universe! It fell into the space station because of a cosmic storm in space?"
Controlling the electric current on the body to form a dense electric grid to wrap around the body, the ability and wisdom displayed by the mysterious creature made Doctor Doom dare not relax at all.
"wisdom?"
Hearing Dr. Zola's exclamation, the mysterious creature turned its body and looked at the face that appeared on the screen. An unexpected expression appeared on its face: "Who are you? It's the first time I've seen you like this." Creatures have no body..." Walking to the console screen, the mysterious creature stretched out its hand and placed it on the screen: "It cannot be absorbed by my body. "
With a curious look on his face, the mysterious creature took another look at the people around him: "And you humans, all seem to have quite special abilities, but they give me a completely different feeling from those guys in the past. In addition... ..." Turning to look at the meteorite fragments in the experimental cabin, the mysterious creature showed an expression of obvious thinking: "If my memory is not wrong, I was clearly knocked into the sky during the last battle and was helpless. If I come back again, I will eventually have to maintain my vitality by changing my body structure. Who brought me back? Judging from your appearance and the memory of the guy before, it seems that it is completely different from those guys before. What exactly am I? In the universe...it turns out that this is what you call the place above the sky..."
"You are from Earth!"
The words of the mysterious creature undoubtedly revealed a lot of shocking information, but what shocked Strack and others the most was that the creature came from the earth and was quite familiar with humans.
"Of course I am from the earth. In fact, I have lived on this planet for a long time, so long that you can't imagine..."
Facing the surprised gazes of Strucker and others, the expression on the mysterious creature's face remained unchanged, and told an astonishing secret in a calm tone: "In fact, in the era when I lived, there was only one of my race, Zhu. Men are the most powerful beings on the earth. All creatures in that era were our prey, including you humans... We who originally had such powerful power will forever rule the earth and you humans, However, the weakness of the Pillar Man clan has become a constraint for us. Because we cannot survive under the sun, we are forced to move into caves, but in the end, you, the food, seize the opportunity..."
