Chapter 185 Raft Prison(1/2)
On the endless sea, a lonely island stands in it.
On the island, a heavily guarded building looks particularly cold and desolate in the rough sea.
The Raft Prison, also known as the Island Prison, was originally part of the Riker Island Prison and was the highest security department in the Riker Island Prison. Later, the Thunder Agents took ownership of the prison and transformed it into the strongest prison. , used to imprison those extremely vicious criminals with super powers.
"Sir!"
After landing in a raft prison by helicopter, Harry Osborn stepped out of the plane ignoring the sea breeze surrounding him.
Seeing Harry stepping off the helicopter, the prison staff who had been waiting for a long time on the roof hurriedly stepped forward.
As the Thunderbolts led by Taskmaster were forced to disband, control of the Raft Prison also changed, with new leader Harry Os taking over.
He nodded, ignoring the flattering expression on the person in charge's face.
Harry turned his head and glanced at the rough waves around the prison, and then asked: "Have you checked the target's condition?"
"We have confirmed the situation and there is nothing unusual about the target."
After hearing Harry's inquiry, the person in charge also calmed down the expression on his face and reported.
"Take me there."
Withdrawing his gaze from the sea, Harry Osborn immediately spoke.
"Please follow me, sir."
Faced with Harry Osborne's request, the prison director naturally had no reason to refuse. He nodded and led the way towards the raft prison.
Because the entire prison is built on an island, the constant feeling of humidity cannot be avoided in the raft prison. Affected by the sea climate, the entire prison seems to always have a depressing atmosphere. Walking in the prison, Harry... Osborne passed through the floors and saw some familiar figures on many prison floors.
Pass by a specially built prison and ignore the screams and roars inside.
Under the guidance of the prison director, Harry Osborne came to the door of the lowest cell in the raft prison and stopped. Looking at the fine sand flowing in the special seawater prison, the look in Harry's eyes changed slightly. .
Noticing the movement outside the cell, the flowing fine sand in the seawater prison began to condense, slowly forming a human face that resembled a lake under the gaze of Harry Osborn.
"William Baker."
In the raft prison, Harry looked at the mock lake face made of fine sand across the seawater cell, and slowly said the other person's name.
William Baker was originally a street gangster. In order to escape from the police during a prison break, he accidentally broke into the desert nuclear bomb testing area in Georgia.
Affected by nuclear radiation in the desert, William Baker's body molecular structure changed and merged with the sand, becoming a Sandman.
After discovering that he could control the sand at will, William Baker, or the Sandman, chose to use this ability to commit crimes.
His ability to control and transform into sand at will really caused great trouble for the members of the Thunderbolts at the time. Most physical attacks, including Luke Cage, were unable to cause much damage to them. But in the end, Natasha discovered the opponent's weakness, diluted William Baker's conversion speed with a large amount of water, and then Songbird used sound waves to control his consciousness, and brought him to a special cell in the raft prison. among.…
In order to prevent William Baker from escaping again, the Thunder Agents specially designed the seawater prison that Harry saw in front of him.
The flowing sea water washes away William Baker's body, preventing him from condensing into shape.
At the same time, the vast sea surrounding the raft prison also blocked the possibility of William Baker escaping again.
"Who are you?"
In the cell, when he heard the name from Harry's mouth, the expression on his face began to change.
More fine sand condensed to form a face with molded features. William Baker looked directly at Harry outside the prison with eyes made of sand, and spoke with difficulty.
"Harry Osborn, the new leader of the Thunderbolts."
"Thunder...the special agent team...the new leader?"
Harry's answer caused some changes in William Baker's voice in the cell.
Due to the long period of detention, most of William Baker's consciousness has become unclear, but his hatred for the Thunder Agents has never been forgotten by him.
In other words, it was precisely because of this hatred that William Baker was able to maintain consciousness despite the erosion of the sea.
"That's right."
Nodding, looking at William Baker's face made of sand in the cell, Harry revealed the purpose of his trip.
"Due to some special circumstances, the original Thunder Agents were forced to disband, and I was recruited by the Superhuman Behavior Supervision Committee to take charge of the establishment of the new Thunder Agents."
Regarding the formation of the new Thunder Agents, Harry obviously does not intend to follow the tradition of the past.
He needs to form a team that is completely at the mercy of his own actions, rather than just a team of 'superheroes'.
To this end, he used Osborn's resources to convince the members of the Superhuman Behavior Oversight Committee to allow him to recruit candidates for his team from within the Raft Prison.
"I can give you freedom, but in exchange, you need to join my team and obey my orders."
Looking directly at William Baker in the cell, Harry made his own terms.
"I agree."
Without any hesitation, William Baker agreed to Harry's request.
For him, as long as he can get out of this damn cell, he is willing to do anything.
After receiving William Baker's reply, Harry turned to the prison manager and nodded.
"Sir..."
The latter's expression was a little hesitant. After all, William Baker was one of the most dangerous prisoners in the Raft Prison, and the Thunder Agents and others had spent a lot of effort to imprison him in this special prison.
However, I thought of the fully authorized instructions I had received from the Superhuman Behavior Supervision Committee.
The person in charge of the prison gritted his teeth and issued the order: "Release water in Area G."
"As you command!"
Following the order from the person in charge, the connecting pipes in the cell were opened, and the seawater that originally filled the entire cell was drained out.
Ten minutes later, the seawater in the cell was drained away, revealing a wet cell and a pool of silt-like objects on the ground.
Seeing the mud in the cell, the prison director couldn't help but gulped, and subconsciously put his hand on the pistol on his waist...
Even though he knew in his heart that bullets could not cause any harm to the target in the cell, the cold touch of the pistol on his waist still gave the person in charge a false sense of security.
Just like that, under the gazes of Harry and the person in charge outside the cell.
The mud began to squirm, revealing the fine yellow sand inside. These fine sands condensed together bit by bit as if there was some kind of life, and finally formed a figure completely composed of gravel.
"Open the cell door in G Block."
Looking at the figure in the cell, Harry opened his mouth to give an order, but heard William Baker's refusal.
"No."
Hearing this, Harry couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and looked at the Sandman in the cell. He saw him lifting his legs to make a step. With the movement of his steps, William Baker's originally condensed body collapsed again.
It turned into a large amount of yellow sand and covered the entire cell floor.
The fine sand continued to move, and finally crawled out bit by bit along the cracks in the pipe, and once again formed the figure of a man wearing a dark green striped shirt.
Without the sand washing and interference from the sea water, William Baker once again had the ability to control the sand and gravel, and the cell in front of him could not contain him at all.
Standing outside the cell of the Raft Prison, feeling the long-lost freedom, William Baker looked down at his fingers made of gravel. Under his gaze, the yellow sand slowly squirmed. Although
From the outside it looks like William Baker has transformed into a human.
But in fact, under this layer of human appearance, his body is occupied by a large amount of yellow sand.
Clenching his fists and feeling the fine gravel falling from his fingers, William Baker put away his gaze and turned to look at Harry Osborne and others in front of him.
Under William Baker's gaze, the person in charge's fingers tightened on the pistol in his waist.
Harry, on the other hand, looked at the Sandman without changing his expression.
"..."
Just like that, in the suffocating and depressing atmosphere, I don't know how long passed.
"Don't worry, I always keep my promises."
William Baker withdrew his gaze and said in a deep voice.
"You set me free and I will do things for you."
Hearing this, the person in charge on the side breathed a sigh of relief, but Harry turned his head as if he had expected it and said to the person in charge: "Continue."
…
"...McDonald, who was originally a private detective, was forced to become an experimental subject due to an unexpected investigation. In that experiment, he was injected with a drug containing scorpion serum, and was forced to wear
Wearing an untested Scorpion suit, Mac Donald later escaped from the laboratory, but could no longer take off the suit, so he transformed into a Scorpion and used the suit's ability to do evil."
Leading the sandman who had Harry out of trouble, the prison director came to a cell in Area F, where a figure wearing a strange uniform and resembling a scorpion was imprisoned.
"With the bonus of the suit, Scorpion has superhuman strength, speed, agility, endurance and endurance. He can survive even if he doesn't eat or drink for a week, and the specially made tail behind his suit can also spray deadly
Sulfuric acid has a strong corrosive effect.”…
Harry paused for a moment on Macdonald, or the scorpion's tail moving freely behind him, and Harry suddenly asked.
"What happened to the man who made this suit?"
"The Thunder Agents have investigated and found that the laboratory where the Scorpion suit was manufactured has been destroyed by Mike Donner, and even the researchers have been killed by him. In fact, Mike Donner is the only survivor of the entire experiment.
