Chapter 716 Toilet Head and Kick-Ass King
Dr. Rice is dead, from a loss of control of the plane. This incident is a very, very bad thing for Hydra. Because senior scientists are not easy to recruit.
First of all, there are many top scientists in the world. The top 100 experts in various research fields are almost all followed by various countries and organizations around the clock.
It is very difficult to buy top scientists with money. In fact, scientists who have reached this level no longer care much about money. Or they don't have to worry about money at all.
Most of the people who can excel in the field of scientific research have nothing in their hearts. As long as the life is relatively rich, it does not require an excessively luxurious life. Except, of course, a certain playboy.
Most of the money that scientists spend is on laboratory studios and various experimental materials and equipment. These research dollars are the real bottomless pit.
Take the Horizon Foundation led by Tony Stark as an example. This foundation makes venture capital for a large number of scientific laboratories around the world.
The general humanities and social sciences (mainly studying the political and social relations in the universe, which is the prospect of entering the interstellar civilization after exploration) have relatively little investment.
And the investment in biological science and materials science is simply terrible, such as the [Parker Factor] project that Tony is very optimistic about. The investment in the first phase exceeded 50 million US dollars. It may be added later.
In Peter Parker's plan, the partial practical application of [Parker Factor] requires the experiment to enter the third stage. As for the third stage, the Horizon Foundation needs to invest more than 130 million U.S. dollars in Peter Parker. It is even possible to exceed.
As a scientist, Tony knows that scientific research is a bottomless pit, and he is ready to throw 200 million dollars for Peter to burn. As long as it can produce certain results, the money will be well spent. Because [Parker Factor] has a bright future, it is worth investing in it.
It is even said that [Parker Factor] is really universal and can be mass-produced, then perhaps the entire human social process will be changed for it.
Because of such a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, Peter Parker in London really couldn't get along with Gwen for too long. Although the two are still adapting to their telepathy, they are trying to control it.
This made the relationship between the two of them warm up a lot from the initial stiffness. At least Gwen rented a car to take Peter to the airport when he left London, and Peter was smirking when he got back and it looked like he was doing well.
Gwen is also very aware of the mission Peter is carrying now, regardless of his identity as Spider-Man, a New York City vigilante. Just the leader of the [Parker Factor] laboratory, Peter Parker, who is less than twenty years old, controls the power and huge funds of the laboratory (of course, when the amount exceeds a certain amount, Tony or Pepper needs to approve and sign).
This made Peter mature a lot, and it also made him understand the severity of relief. In addition to completing courses at NYU, he spends time in the lab and occasionally fights crime part-time as Spider-Man.
He was almost busy, but it seemed that after being irradiated by the reality gem once, Spider-Man's physical strength increased greatly. His spirit has also improved a lot. Peter was absolutely unable to cope with so many things, and would often doze off during class.
But now that he is in high spirits every day, maybe the radiation of the reality gem is a good thing for him? Anyway, Peter thought so.
Having said that, because these outstanding scientists are not easy to find, it is even difficult to find scientific researchers like Peter, who are not the top and can only be in the second-tier echelon. So the death of Dr. Rice made the Red Skull a pain.
An excellent scientist is more important to Hydra than thousands of miscellaneous soldiers. This is a huge loss, and someone needs to be held accountable for this loss.
So under Schmidt's signal, Crossbones Bullock executed the ground crew who were doing logistics for Dr. Rice's plane at that time, because it was their mistake that caused the accident.
Until now, everyone thought Dr. Rice's accident was an accident. This is just a coincidence.
This is also the strength of Sentinel Ultron. It hides at the core of Hydra, devouring and transforming resources greedily, but it does not let people discover it. Dr. Rice, who is most familiar with it now, was also killed by it.
In this way, Sentinel Ultron has become much more stable, like a crazy virus, Sentinel Ultron is constantly expanding outward through the central control computer of Hydra to back up itself, and has been accumulating strength, waiting for one day to purify this world.
But all this is still going on secretly, no one knows. And because of the death of Dr. Rice, as his deputy, the former major general of the United States, and also the anti-mutant vanguard of the radical faction: General Stryker is on the throne!
Schmidt handpicked his plan to succeed Dr. Rice and continue to preside over the Sentinels. Because he had done this with Dr. Rice's father back then, and he had been working on the Weapon X program for so many years, Stryker was very experienced.
Although scientific research ability is definitely insufficient, it is still possible to grasp the overall situation. Didn't Rice say that Sentry's brain will automatically optimize every battle.
Then all Stryker needs to do is to escort the system, and he doesn't need to do much.
Because he didn't do much, Stryker applied to Schmidt to start the Weapon X program within Hydra. In fact, this plan has been done by Dr. Rice before.
However, due to the birth of the Sentinel Project, it was temporarily shelved in order to save money. Now that Stryker brought up the old matter again, Schmidt agreed after only thinking about it.
Because for the current Hydra, maybe solving the problem of the mutant brotherhood is the top priority. Schmidt is even ready for Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch to start fighting, and it's time to make trouble for the Brotherhood of Mutants.
And Stryker, who just took over the power of Dr. Rice, also has a lot of things to do. For example, send someone to retrieve the girl code-named X23, a biological experiment subject of a Weapon X program who escaped before.
Master Copycat, Cougar and Kraven the Hunter have their work cut out for them.
………………………
New York City is as bustling as ever. When the lights come on, there is a lot of traffic. I am flying in the night sky of this city to defend the safety of this city. Sam, the boy with a toilet head, thought triumphantly.
However, his heroism didn't last long before he was immediately interrupted by a phone call.
"Has our Italian double basil burger not been delivered yet? Your delivery speed has been getting slower and slower recently! As a backup member, I will consider firing you if you are like this!" The leader of Young Star, Supergirl Mindy complained on the other end of the phone.
Well, I spent a long time looking at the night view of the city, and almost forgot my own job. Sam immediately rushed to the place agreed with Mindy and Laura.
Although I don't know why, Sam, who originally wanted to be a superhero, has now become a complete errand boy. And he also regards this as his own job, maybe he has a little error in his understanding of superheroes?
However, it is enough for young people to enjoy it, anyway, this grade is the time when there is too much energy to vent.
In an old building in Brooklyn, Mindy and Laura were sitting side by side, chatting about school while waiting for the delivery of food.
"I noticed that Ron Dick in Class C of the eighth grade has been watching you quietly in the physical education class. Do you think he has a crush on you?" Mindy said with a smirk, holding Laura's shoulder.
Under the repeated persuasion of Big Daddy and Punisher, Wolverine temporarily agreed to send his daughter to study with Mindy. The guardian Jiuyou Daddy in New York is in charge together with the Punisher.
So as classmates at the same school, now Mindy and Laura have more to talk about. But Laura's grades are very poor, and she is the bottom of the class. Only the physical education class is very good, and she will only enter school in September, and many classmates don't know each other yet.
So she didn't know what Mindy was talking about about eighth grade C or Ron Dick.
Mindy continued to smirk: "It's the guy who likes to show off on the football field and likes to imitate Beckham. Every time you appear on the sidelines of the football field, he will perform very hard."
Laura thought for a long time and shook her head: "I have no impression, I don't know."
Mindy glanced at his mouth: "Well, poor Ron Dick, if he knows this news, he will be heartbroken."
While the two little girls were chatting, a green figure jumped between the tall buildings, like a legendary martial arts master with light skills.
And this green figure quickly approached the roof of the building where the two little girls were.
The uniform is a green background, decorated with black and yellow lines, and the colors and styles are so ugly that they explode. There are also two short sticks on the back. Needless to say, among all the superheroes in New York, there is only Kick-Ass King David with this terrible aesthetic.
"Hi, girls, good evening. Is there anything you can do with me today?" Haibian King David greeted Mindy and Laura familiarly.
And at this moment, the boy with the toilet head flew back with all kinds of takeaways. As soon as he landed, he saw Kick-off King David, who looked very familiar with the two 'bosses'.
The boy with the toilet head subconsciously asked, "Who is this person?"
