The beast left in a hurry, and not long after, a dark portal appeared over the airport. It was completely different from the white portal opened by Luo Ji. This was Magneto's wormhole.
The movement of the beast leaving attracted the attention of others, and it was almost lunch time. Everyone gathered in the lounge, discussing the biological riots in the Andromeda galaxy.
Both Stark and Reed believe that this is most likely a genetic virus that only affects a certain gene. Changes based on genes will not affect the blood, body fluids, or even the body structure of the organism itself.
For example, if human genes are modified to have three arms, and from a certain point on, all children born have three arms, then nothing abnormal will be found by examining the child's blood and body fluids, and the data will be the same as that of ordinary people.
No two.
Similarly, if the tampered genes affect the brain structure, it is very likely that people will go crazy as soon as they are born or at a certain stage of growth. At this time, routine testing is still useless, and even brain scans may not be useful.
No abnormalities can be seen. The problem may occur in the neurons, and human detection methods are not so sophisticated.
Judging from the information provided by mutants, some creatures have experienced limb mutations, but the changes are not significant. It does not mean that they suddenly changed from eight-legged crabs to two-legged people, but they have grown sharper teeth.
, sharper claws, or lower limbs that can increase movement speed.
But without exception, all the rioting creatures have become extremely aggressive, and even some plants that had no intelligence at all have grown whip-like thorns that will tear every passerby into pieces.
.
Therefore, both Stark and Reed believe that the genes of the rioting creatures must have been finely modified, which means that this must be man-made and not a natural disaster.
If it is a natural disaster, the mutations will be random, and many organisms will develop body structures that cannot adapt to the planet's environment. Just like bugs that are magnified tens of thousands of times, they will be directly crushed to death by gravity, instead of like now.
Not only is it bouncing around, but it also has a lot of attack power.
This is actually good news, because after all, mutants are now infected. If the mutation is really random, a lot of people may die, but if you just strengthen the attack power and go crazy, you can always control it.
As expected, not long after, Professor
After detailed questioning by Schiller, we found out that this mutant was also unlucky. The planet he patrolled was extremely remote, and it would take a long time to even fly there in a spaceship. He was also careless and did not bring a communicator, so he plunged into it.
In the primeval forest.
When the disaster broke out, he didn't know it at all. When he started counting people and found that he was not there and found him, the creatures on the planet had already started to riot, and he was also caught.
The current situation is that he cannot change at all, and has lost his mind and cannot say anything, so he can only be temporarily detained.
Schiller knew that Harry came in person this time, probably because Osborne's research was not going well, and he wanted to get some clues from Stark and Reed. Although these two people are not specialized in biotechnology, they can be considered as analogies, and more importantly What makes them significantly different from ordinary scientists is that they are full of inspiration, and maybe they will point to the truth as soon as they have an idea.
Reed directly took out the small box of the tarantula that Harry had brought over from the big box. After staring at it for a long time, he said: "It is an idea to extract the body fluids of mutated samples and inject them into the original creatures of the earth. , but before you carried out this plan, didn’t you consider the risk of infecting all living things on the earth?”
"My father said no. He believed that the man behind the scenes was specifically targeting the creatures in the Andromeda galaxy. The genetic sequences of the creatures there are not related to those of the Earth's creatures."
"At that time, he guessed that it was a genetic problem?"
Harry nodded and said: "But if you think about it, you know that if it is a low-level means of blood, body fluids or air transmission, it is impossible to infect more than 20 planets, two of which are even more than 100,000 light years apart. What kind of animal Can one droplet travel 100,000 light-years?"
Stark nodded and said: "I have no doubt that old Osborne has such decisiveness, otherwise he would not dare to take on this task easily. If things on the earth are really infected, he will not die of illness. But he was scolded to death."
"Are there infections in other galaxies?" Schiller asked.
Harry shook his head and said, "Nothing has been found so far."
Luo Ji also interjected: "I haven't heard of any biological riots anywhere. The intensity of this infection is not weak. If there is, they will at least report it to the Alliance of the Galaxy. There is no way there is no news at all."
"So they are targeting mutants. If that's the case, why do they need to infect organisms? Why not directly infect mutants?" Peter asked with some confusion.
Schiller smiled and said: "Don't forget what the symptoms of the infected are. They will attack everything around them like crazy. Which civilization can withstand the madness of Magneto and Professor X?"
"Oh, that's right." Peter then reacted.
For other races, losing intelligence and leaving only attack instinct is a major weakening. But for mutants who are too strong individually, this thing is the battle cry buff. It is already strong enough. If it is strengthened again, there will be no more. Differential attack, can this universe still have it?
Thinking of the consequences of these two old babies' indiscriminate attacks, Peter couldn't help but shudder.
The purpose of the mastermind behind the scenes is to weaken the mutants, not to drive them to a dead end and drive them crazy. This proves that the other party is also wearing shoes and has assets to protect, rather than some madman who wants to destroy the universe. The scope is much narrower. Already.
"Will Thanos have any clues?" Luo Ji suddenly said: "How about I call him and ask him?"
No one objected, so Luo Ji went out to make a phone call, and came back after a while. She said: "Saros said that the Andromeda Galaxy is strictly blocked by mutants, and under the all-round surveillance of Professor X,
Almost no living thing can get close there."
"Any news on him?"
Thanos only said: "The three empires did conduct biological experiments in some independent dimensions before, but this was legal, and there has never been a large-scale pollution leak."
"After all, the civilizational forces of the entire universe are divided up by the three empires. It is not good for them to cause large-scale civilization destruction due to pollution leakage."
"There is no large-scale leak, which means there are still small-scale leaks?"
Luo Ji nodded and said: "This is also inevitable. Sometimes one or two experimental subjects will run out of the experimental base and cause a little trouble, but they will be dealt with quickly."
At this time, Schiller looked at Rocket Raccoon next to him. Rocket Raccoon and him looked at each other, and both of them clearly understood what the other was thinking.
The half-world that Rocket Raccoon used to live in was a typical independent dimension used for biochemical experiments. Something happened there. A group of unknown people rushed in and massacred the scientists and experimental products, causing chaos.
However, experimental subjects like Rocket Raccoon who escaped did not cause any trouble. Compared with the large-scale biological riot in the Andromeda Galaxy, it was nothing to mention.
"Who among the three empires is willing to bear the wrath of mutants?" Schiller said: "In fact, no one, because mutants are equivalent to a group of wandering desperadoes. If you don't mess with them, they are only in Andromeda.
Activities within the galaxy, but if you want to destroy the Andromeda Galaxy, what will happen if people want to live in your capital?"
This is true when others think about it. Whether it is the Kree Empire or the Skrull Empire, there is actually no need to mess with mutants.
The Milky Way is relatively remote, and the Andromeda Galaxy is very close to the Milky Way. It is also a suburb. In layman's terms, it is to Zhangjiakou. If you ruin this place, what if these people can't think about it and insist on living in the Second Ring Road?
Basically no one in the universe wants to mess with these gangsters. Just like Asgard back then, if they were targeted, they would consider themselves unlucky. They would hide if they could, and if they couldn't, they would abandon their goods to save their lives.
Magneto also abides by the rules of the world. Apart from collecting protection fees, he rarely shows up. Sometimes when two civilized caravans have conflicts, he will argue based on the amount of protection fees collected.
Some civilizations with relatively low levels of civilization almost regarded him as a patron saint, giving him whatever they asked for. This made the old man feel comfortable, and he did not have so much free time to find trouble with these civilizations every day.
The three empires think they are a threat, but to be honest, no one from the nine kingdoms is a threat. Asgard has been riding on their heads for so many years, but they have never dared to touch Odin's hometown.
"I understand." Peter suddenly said: "Look, if the mutants' home is destroyed, let alone who they will seek revenge from, they will definitely be looking for a new place to settle down. Where do you think they will choose?"
"They have worked hard to build the Andromeda galaxy for so long and it was reduced to ashes in one day. They are definitely not willing to start from scratch. At least they have to choose a place with a similar level of construction. That must be the domain of the three empires," Matt said.
.
"Yes, then there will definitely be conflicts between mutants and the three empires." Schiller continued: "And if the mutants continue to regard the three empires as the culprits of the destruction of the Andromeda Galaxy, then the conflict between them will
The contradiction is irreconcilable."
"Are you saying that the person behind the scenes wants to sow discord?"
"This must be the case. Professor
All members of the Alliance of Radiance present could imagine that Professor
Where is a destination.
Although the mutants indirectly control the Shi'ar Empire, they cannot go too far, otherwise public opinion will boil and it will be difficult for them to handle. Therefore, there is only one chance for the Shi'ar Empire to give in and give them a territory, in case someone knows the target location.
, and they started to take action there in advance, and they wanted to seize the territory again, but they were really determined to fight to the death.
"Can you give me a sample creature?" Reed said suddenly, "I'm sure I can figure out the nature of the mutation."
Harry first looked at Peter, who didn't respond, and then looked at Stark. Stark didn't say anything to stop him, and Schiller asked: "Are you going back to New York?"
"No, it's right here." Reed said, "I just need some basic equipment and enough scratch paper."
Peter immediately wanted to stop it. After all, if you don't do experiments in a professional laboratory, if something goes wrong, it will become a disaster again.
But Schiller and Nick agreed with Reed. Although the experiments here are not professional enough, Reed's technical level can make up for this well. More importantly, the Avengers and Gray Fog are both here, in case it really happens.
If something goes wrong, it will be solved on the spot.
The point is, if something goes wrong, SHIELD agents will rush over from New York for support, and it will cost a lot of travel expenses. Isn't this the chance to reimburse them?
