Chapter 2137 The Ultimate New World (XVIII)
As for Bruce, he was already tired of the reset, but he still didn't want to give up and wanted to try another way.
If he snatched the potion from the construction site, he would become a monster. If Osborne Group didn't have what he wanted, he would be attacked by mysterious mucus and lose his mind.
Then Bruce had only one way left, which was to cooperate with the mysterious person who contacted him through text messages.
This time Bruce was frank, because through the elimination method several times before, he already knew that Osborne Group was not the culprit. Even a fool could see that the person who contacted him through text messages was the thief crying "Catch the thief". The mysterious person behind the text message was the one who released the Extremis virus.
So Bruce asked Bai Can to provide him with the Extremis virus, and the Extremis virus without side effects, otherwise he would provide evidence to Osborne Group to accuse Stark of conducting illegal biochemical experiments and poisoning the water source in San Francisco.
That's right. In the last conversation with Norman, Bruce already knew that Osborn was investigating the Stark Group. It's not surprising to think about it. The only person who can develop this kind of black technology is probably Tony Stark, who is known as the smartest scientist in the world.
Bai Can is a native of Marvel, so as time resets, his memory will also be reset. He was surprised that this ordinary human experiment subject recognized him, but no matter how he investigated, Bruce's background was flawless.
Because this is a background story woven by a higher dimensional force after all, there will be almost no flaws.
Stark can only think that Bruce may have learned about this through Osborn. Since Bruce has already cooperated with the Osborn Group, will this be an olive branch thrown by the Osborn Group?
Whether it is a threat or an invitation for cooperation, Bai Can thought about it for a while and felt that it was not wise to let the Osborn Group explode this bomb now, so he could only take a delaying tactic and give him what he wanted first.
So Bai Guan provided Bruce with the third phase of the Extremis virus. He actually didn't have time to conduct clinical limit dose tests, so he just used Bruce as a test subject.
Unfortunately, the experiment was not very successful. The third phase virus was indeed more stable, but the effect was almost zero.
There is an upper limit to the improvement of human appearance and muscle mass. No matter how much it is improved, it is still a human, with two eyes, a nose, two arms and two legs. The Extremis virus cannot create other organs to enhance humans themselves, and the effect cannot be as strong as spider mutation.
Bruce was at a loss to find that after he injected a large amount of this virus given to him by Stark, except for a slight increase in strength, it had no effect at all.
If it were other Batman, he should have been thinking about the way the virus works at this time, or simply ruled out the virus as an option and started looking for other reasons for his own strength.
Because other Batman can figure it out, Iron Man has no need to lie to him. If this virus has not been launched on a large scale, and it is only a matter of time before it is launched on a large scale, then giving him the real virus will do no harm, and lying to him will do no good.
But Bruce obviously couldn't figure this out. What ordinary people are best at is not doubting when they should doubt, and making groundless doubts and attacks when they should think rationally.
Bruce also fell into a dead end of thinking. He felt that either the Osborn Group didn't give him the real thing, or the Stark Group didn't give him the real thing. Anyway, these two groups were not good people.
But with Bruce's ability, he could only be angry for a while in his rage. He had no effective way to retaliate against these two groups, let alone ask them how to make him stronger.
But if he didn't retaliate against these two groups, these two groups would have their eyes on him.
Most of the time, fence-sitters don't have a good end. The Osborn Group thought that Bruce must have revealed the situation of the experimental center to the Stark Group, and the Stark Group thought that Bruce and Osborn had cooperated for a long time.
Both parties wanted to silence them, but neither Osborn nor the evil Iron Man were good people, and they had the ability to kill.
In the end, the Osborn Group took the lead. In the process of taking Bruce to New York, Bruce escaped and was accidentally killed by the security guards of the Osborn Group.
Fortunately, Nick Fury, who had been watching him from behind, quickly reset the time back to the beginning.
So Bruce was reborn again.
No matter how stupid Bruce was, he understood that there must be something wrong with this matter. As long as he changed his trajectory of action, he would definitely not achieve his desired goal.
The force that blocked him was very strong, and rushing around trying to change the future would not achieve his desired goal. It would be better to continue following the script, and maybe he could gain power again.
Bruce felt that as long as he followed the original script meticulously, he would definitely be able to reach the point of gaining power, and then at the moment of gaining power, he would not waste time testing, but immediately begin to explore what was preventing him from gaining power.
In theory, this idea is the most correct one at present, but he missed a factor, that is, Aisha.
Don't forget, Elsa is also a DC person. Although she can also reset time as the universe is reset, her memory is also retained.
During the second reset, Elsa discovered Bruce's abnormality and guessed what he was doing in this crazy rampage.
Through the first contact, Elsa knew that Bruce was extremely weak, so she could infer from his extremely weak strength that he wanted to save Gotham but had no way, and he was more helpless than other Batman.
Then it can be guessed that Bruce's urgent and crazy state must be because he saw the hope of gaining power.
Elsa actually hopes to help Bruce gain power.
But she really doesn't know, if Bruce sees hope, then what he sees hope through, she can only control the situation as much as possible like other Batman.
But this control went wrong.
Elsa assisted Bruce in the previous few times, but in the end, Elsa found that this Batman was really hopeless. If he wants to achieve his goal, he can't rely on himself, and he has to do it himself.
Aisha took a more radical step.
As mentioned before, Aisha controlled the robot to physically seize the storage equipment of Stark Group. This is actually relatively conservative. Although the success rate is not high, it is relatively safe.
However, due to Bruce's crazy state, Aisha found that she had no time after reaching this step.
If she could not figure out the secret of Stark Group's desperate virus in a short time, Bruce would definitely go crazy when he found that he still could not get power after following the plot.
Aisha gritted her teeth and stomped her feet. It was too late for physical invasion. I would just write an artificial intelligence and let it invade Stark Tower.
In theory, the level of artificial intelligence written by Aisha is not bad, but her hardware conditions are too limited, and it is not a little bit worse than Stark's pile of super equipment that spans the times.
So in order to continue to optimize artificial intelligence, Aisha chose to get a device first, but to get the device, she had to break through the security defense. To break through the security defense, she had to rely on artificial intelligence, which became a dead loop again.
In the end, Aisha chose to spend a little energy and break in violently to get a device first.
But the bad thing was that Pepper kept the original consciousness of the righteous Iron Man in the Stark Group.
Aisha also inherited Batman's unlucky tradition. Among the equipment she moved away, there happened to be a device that saved the consciousness of Iron Man.
Aisha was eager to optimize the program and did not consider the security of the network. After gaining control of the equipment, she connected to the network without thinking, and then began to optimize the artificial intelligence life she created.
As the saying goes, a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger. The newly born artificial intelligence is not that smart. It rushed around in the regional network and directly woke up the backup consciousness of Iron Man who was still sleeping.
Tony Stark's body has always been its shackles. When it truly becomes an unconscious and intelligent life without weaknesses, few carbon-based life can beat it.
The moment Stark broke through the limitations of the storage device, he entered the Internet through the networked device and naturally learned about the information of the Extremis virus.
Iron Man realized at the first time that the spread of the Extremis virus was the prelude to the destruction of mankind.
Those who can afford it will be divided layer by layer, cutting human society into more dense pieces, making the upper class more divided, and those who can't afford it will not give up, they will find ways to resist the increasingly severe oppression.
Stark will never sit idly by and watch a war that destroys humanity, so the first thing he has to do is to fight against his evil self and find a way to thwart his conspiracy to release the Extremis virus.
Bai Can is also sharp enough. He caught the traces of the righteous Iron Man on the Internet and was ready for confrontation.
But in a confrontation, if one person has a moral bottom line and the other does not, it will eventually develop into a situation where neither of them has a moral bottom line.
Because in order to win, a person with integrity cannot beat a villain who has no bottom line at all, so in order to win, both sides will eventually do whatever it takes.
What kind of disaster will the collision of the two most talented geniuses in the world cause?
On this day, humans lost all their network signals, and a long-lost meteor shower fell on the earth. The countless satellites that had risen and represented the arrival of the information age fell.
When the disaster happened, Bruce finally woke up, and the terrible thing was that he caused the disaster, but he had no ability to clean up the mess.
Sitting in front of the screen and observing all this, Nick sighed. As the king of agents, he knew that he was not good at remotely controlling everything in the office.
When he sat here, there were not many things he could do, and they were not what he was good at. If he wanted to solve this problem thoroughly, he had to go down in person.
Nick stood up, put on his coat and walked towards the portal. He was going to this universe in person, replacing Nick Fury there, and as the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., he would completely solve all these troubles.
Don't faint first
