Chapter 126: Saving Private Ron

The entrance to the mine, which has been widened and reinforced with steel beams and concrete, is wide enough for small cars to pass through. The ground has been simply leveled and there are small rails.

Unlike the light and dark sentries in the woods on the hillside outside, there is no one guarding here, as if it is an abandoned mine.

Fu Qinghai activated his Force perception to its fullest, carefully stepping over various trip mines and booby traps while crushing the camera hidden in the corner.

In fact, with the protective power of the power armor, the amount of explosives in general booby traps can be directly ignored. Even if he steps on it and the explosion occurs, it will not hurt Fu Qinghai at all, unless it is an anti-tank mine, there is a certain possibility of breaking the defense, but who would install an anti-tank mine in a narrow mine?

Fu Qinghai was just being cautious and deliberately slowed down his speed to give the perfect humans time to assemble and let Upton DuPont reach the depths of the mine first.

As long as the perfect human reincarnation is not stupid, he should have discovered his invasion by now.

Fu Qinghai walked in the mine holding a bolt gun without an extended barrel and a sight. Facing the mine tunnels that were interconnected in all directions, Fu Qinghai brought into play the hunting instinct engraved in the genes of the White Scar, and occasionally used the ability of genetic detection nerves to follow the mine tunnels with the most people.

Fu Qinghai turned on his active and passive perspectives, and soon, the first perfect human reincarnation appeared in his sight.

In the gray-white outline image through the eyepiece, behind a load-bearing wall at the corner of the mine tunnel, a figure carrying a huge rocket launcher moved stealthily there.

The perspective image was so clear that Fu Qinghai could even identify the model of the weapon.

FGM-148 Javelin anti-tank missile.

Fu Qinghai held the gun steadily, adjusted the grenade launcher to semi-automatic shooting mode, and aimed at the load-bearing wall.

"clatter!"

A fist-sized hole appeared on the concrete wall, and the entire upper body of the reincarnation behind the wall exploded.

The first one.

Fu Qinghai killed the first reincarnationist and was waiting for the reincarnation world to prompt the assimilation points.

The reincarnation world prompts the assimilation point reward.

The perfect human happens to be in the enemy camp, which is great.

Fu Qinghai was even more motivated for the next killing. Members of the same society would lock onto the same camp when entering the reincarnation world. If the perfect humans were also in the Hydra plot line camp, Fu Qinghai had considered killing a few people first to establish his authority, and then threatening them to release Ron, a route of fighting and negotiating at the same time.

After walking a few more steps deeper, there was a three-way intersection in front of them. In the perspective picture, three reincarnations, holding automatic weapons and grenades in their hands, were lying in ambush in the mine tunnel on the far left.

Fu Qinghai pulled out a rifle grenade from his waist and stuffed it into the grenade launcher hanging under the gun.

"Click…Bang!"

A black shadow was thrown accurately into the mine tunnel.

"boom--"

Fiery flames erupted from the dark mine tunnel.

The perspective screen lit up, and when it was restored, all that was left in the mine tunnel were broken bodies stuck to the inner walls of the tunnel.

…

In a laboratory deep in the mine, Mandel, a man with a curly beard, looked grimly at a large screen in front of him.

One third of the screen in the entire monitoring room was already black.

Wherever the giant white-armored warrior went, he destroyed the surveillance.

"Where are the people from the law enforcement team?"

Mandel turned his head and asked.

A man who looked like an assistant answered:

"The law enforcement team sent three groups of people there, and they all... died."

Mandel said unhappily:

"Are the people in the law enforcement team all idiots? Although I don't know where they came from, these people wearing heavy armor like human tanks will be directly used with anti-tank missiles and individual rockets."

The assistant looked at Mandel carefully and said:

"What they brought were anti-tank missiles, Javelin, Stinger, RPG, expensive and cheap, they took everything."

At this moment, in the surveillance footage, the tall warrior in white armor, as if he had predicted the future, turned around and shot through two sniper teams carrying Barrett anti-material sniper rifles who were hiding behind several supporting pillars.

His gun was extremely powerful. One bullet after another pierced through and broke several supporting pillars, and then smashed the two reincarnations in front and behind.

What's going on... Curly-bearded Mandel frowned and thought.

When did the perfect human provoke such a powerful technological warrior?

Even going so far as to chase him to the Marvel Comics Universe of Earth-36 to seek revenge?

The perfect human family is large and powerful, and has made many enemies in the entire reincarnation world. The number of people he has offended is so large that he can't even count them, and Mandel couldn't remember them all at the moment.

Mandel didn't think about the symbiote host deep in the mine. He didn't know about the existence of the fetish and had no idea what channels the guy had to pass on the news.

At this time, in the mine tunnel, the enemies seemed to be aware of Fu Qinghai's ability of perspective and began to hide in thicker tunnels, or directly built fortifications on the spot and prepared to shoot at Fu Qinghai.

Fu Qinghai killed another reincarnation who was crouching behind a concrete bunker and attempting to launch a single-soldier missile at him.

Either he used his perspective to kill silently, or simply, Fu Qinghai's nerve reaction speed was faster than his, and he took aim and pulled the trigger first.

As I walked past the body, I glanced at the weapon on his shoulder.

FIM-92 "Stinger" individual air defense missile.

Are you planning to use anti-vehicle weapons against me?

It is true that the Astartes' defense is equivalent to that of a human tank, but the Astartes' movement speed, reaction ability, and agility are completely incomparable to the slow tanks.

Too weak.

Fu Qinghai shook his head and pulled the bolt of the gun with a "click".

How can it be so weak?

He could sense that these perfect human reincarnations were very rich, and they had assimilated dozens of American-style equipment in service, but what was the use of just having money? Could the reincarnation world be played with money?

How come there wasn't even a single person with super powers?

Before, Fu Qinghai heard Zhang Yuning and Upton DuPont mention perfect humans. From the tone of their voices, it felt like they were a large, overbearing, and famous reincarnation society.

But now it seems that the strength of its members does not match their fame and status at all.

Fu Qinghai felt that the Samsara Society, which was in name only, would not last long in the Samsara world. The other party might have had other changes or had some hidden tricks up their sleeves.

…

At the same time, in the monitoring room deep in the mine, Curly-Bearded Mandel could no longer bear the white-armored warriors approaching the laboratory step by step.

He grabbed a walkie-talkie and yelled into it:

"Edgar, forget about that damn symbiote, bring your people back immediately and come to the laboratory!"

After yelling, Mandel lowered his head and walked back and forth twice, clenching his fist and waving his hands angrily:

"Fuck, fuck, fuck!"

"Now anyone dares to ride on the head of a perfect person and shit on him. If our X genes hadn't disappeared during the M-Day, there would be no chance for these guys to be so rampant!"

After cursing, he said to the assistants around him:

"Edgar may not be reliable. Put on your gas mask, put on your closed chemical protective suit, open all the exhaust fans and gas tank valves, and let's use Tabun gas to poison that guy to death."

An assistant reminded:

"Sir, if the poison gas is released, all the test subjects in the culture tank will die."

"Why are you still bothering with all this at this time? Just do it!"

After saying this, Mandel found that all his assistants were standing there in a daze, with horror on their faces, motionless. Mandel was about to get angry and curse, when suddenly, a bolt gun with a slightly hot muzzle was pressed against his forehead.

It's him!

The man with the curly beard raised his hands quickly:

"I vote..."

"Bang!"

The head exploded.

"unnecessary."

Fu Qinghai's cold voice came from the loudspeaker.

After ensuring that the enemy is doomed, Fu Qinghai can accept the enemy's surrender in order to extract more benefits, but the primary goal now is to rescue Ron.

According to the information brought by Zhang Yuning, the strongest reincarnation who disappeared from the perfect human race - "Jerome" - is always a sword hanging over Fu Qinghai's head, leaving him no time to argue with these people, and he must fight quickly and decisively.

Mandel's headless body fell down. Several assistants in white coats around him watched this scene, all trembling with fear and not daring to say a word.

Fu Qinghai pointed to the surrounding equipment and gas tanks and asked:

"What are these?"

"It's... it's the ventilation and oxygen supply equipment in the mine."

An assistant in a white coat said tremblingly.

Fu Qinghai put down the grenade launcher and placed it on the equipment. Just when several people in white coats breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he was going to capture them, Fu Qinghai suddenly drew out the power sword from his waist.

A flash of white light appeared, and four heads rolled to the ground.

"You don't need to tell me, I can understand it."

Fu Qinghai muttered to himself in a low voice.

After all the people in this section of the mine died, Fu Qinghai laid down his weapon and began to study the instruments and equipment here.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

This was a makeshift laboratory without the complicated security measures like those in the Hydra base. Fu Qinghai quickly browsed through the contents of the laboratory computer and immediately figured out the research content of this laboratory.

The X gene of mutants from other reincarnation worlds is implanted into the receptors through special methods. First, see if the receptors can survive. After they survive, various physical means such as beating, abuse, lack of oxygen, disability, or chemical means such as hormones and drugs are used to stimulate the awakening of the X gene in the body.

Looks familiar, right?

That's right, in the first movie "Deadpool", Wade Winston Wilson was tricked by the villain who claimed to be curing cancer into going through this process. After going through hardships, he gained the self-healing ability from Wolverine and became Deadpool.

There is a similar plot in the last Wolverine independent film, "Logan", which is about the life of the Wolverine character.

There are many people on Earth who naturally carry the X gene, but they never show mutant traits of superpowers throughout their lives, so becoming a mutant requires a process of stimulation and awakening. The methods of Professor X's Wiesel School for Gifted Youngsters are relatively scientific, gentle, and step-by-step, while the methods used by the villains are very simple and crude.

The movie "Deadpool" is faithful to the original comic book plot, and "Logan" is also adapted from the comic "Homecoming". Whether in movies or comics, the plot of stealing and utilizing X genes through biochemical technology is very common, so it is not difficult to imagine the source of the technology of perfect humans.

Fu Qinghai removed the three hard drives used by Perfect Humans to store experimental data and research materials from the computer case.

This is the biggest gain of this operation...oh, the biggest gain besides saving Ron.

As a technological reincarnation, Fu Qinghai is an Astartes technical sergeant who possesses the "electronic soul backup of Tony Stark" in his mind. For him, these scientific research materials are far more valuable than assimilation points.

It has been made clear before that Fu Qinghai himself will not touch the X gene.

Because the X-gene is indeed powerful. Omega-level mutants such as Dark Phoenix, Magneto, Hope, and Storm are all powerful and can call the wind and rain. In a sense, they are more worthy of the title of "demigods" than the Primarchs in Warhammer 40K. However, the X-gene also has many disadvantages, and they are very fatal.

The occurrence of M-Day in the 616 main universe is an example.

In "Logan", the villain used genetically modified food technology to integrate the gene fragments that eliminated the X gene into various genetically modified crops, so that mutants would no longer be born naturally in the world. This was already a very mild method. In other comic universes, there are a hundred ways for mutants to be collectively exterminated.

The X gene is very powerful, but also very dangerous.

Although Fu Qinghai himself would not touch it, it did not mean that he could not store technical information related to the X gene.

This is just like the attitude of the Mechanicus towards technological archaeology: no matter if it is a Coca-Cola production line or a Panacea production line, as long as it is an STC template, all are accepted, and the more the better.

Even if it is just to be able to better deal with the mutant-type reincarnations in the future, it is worth studying.

Moreover, Fu Qinghai, who has a deep understanding of the X-Men comic series, also knows that these X-gene modification surgeries that seem to appear frequently in various movie versions actually originate from the same scientific research project - the X-weapon project.

The funding, technical support and behind-the-scenes mastermind behind all the Weapon X projects in different movie company versions actually come from the same company and the same person.

Perfect human beings are nothing more than imitating others.

After taking away all the research materials from the Perfect Human Mine Laboratory, Fu Qinghai looked at the operating table next to the instruments and equipment.

Just now, Fu Qinghai has already understood what these gas tank-like things are through the appearance of the equipment and the information in the computer.

The last line of insurance and protection arranged by perfect humans for the mine laboratory.

Gas tanks filled with various poisonous gases are connected to the ventilation ducts and ventilation equipment throughout the underground mine passages.

It is used not only to defend against enemies, but also as a chemical agent to stimulate the test subjects to awaken.

Looking at the names on the gas tanks, they are sarin gas, tabun gas, mustard gas and diphosgene.

These are all poisonous gases that can explode if they come into direct contact with the skin, and even ordinary gas masks are useless.

Wow, the Death Guard and Mortarion are experts. Fu Qinghai sighed in his heart.

The Death Guard are the Space Marine Legion that are most adept at biological warfare. Mortarion is its Primarch, an old fellow who has a suit of power armor with all kinds of poison gas canisters stuck on the back and breathes poison gas as if it were oxygen.

But unfortunately, for Fu Qinghai who had a fully enclosed power armor and a breathing valve, not to mention that they were killed before they had time to release the poison gas, even if they released the poison gas, it would not affect Fu Qinghai's swaggering to the laboratory and killing them all.

It's a completely useless move against Space Marines.

Fu Qinghai came to the laboratory behind the machine room, where the mine tunnels were divided into different functions, including culture rooms, dissection rooms, morgues, incinerators, etc.

Fu Qinghai walked into the culture room. Most of the subjects here had died. There were only two women still soaking in large culture tanks and a man who had been tortured to death.

Fu Qinghai operated the equipment buttons to wake up the two naked women in the incubator, and then untied the hands and feet of the scarred man on the electric chair. He said loudly:

"I don't know who you are, and I don't care, but you are all free now. Get out of here. I'm going to destroy it soon."

The man looked at Fu Qinghai deeply, as if he wanted to remember the appearance of his armor. He endured the pain and knelt on one knee to salute Fu Qinghai. Then he turned around and limped out of the mine without saying a word.

After thanking Fu Qinghai, the two women supported each other and left.

After releasing the test subjects captured by the perfect human, Fu Qinghai came to a dark mine tunnel, which was the passage leading to deeper parts of the mine.

He thought for a moment: It's been so long, Ron and Upton should have left.

Fu Qinghai combined the construction data in the computer, carefully observed and studied the supporting structure of the mine, got some missiles and explosives from the dead reincarnations, and combined with his own grenade launcher, he blew up the entire tunnel in a few shots.

"boom--"

The entire passage was buried in rubble and gravel.

Back in the control room, Fu Qinghai opened the exhaust valves of the gas tanks one by one, and then adjusted the power of the ventilation fan to maximum, transporting all the poisonous gas to the depths of the blocked mine.

Before entering the laboratory, Fu Qinghai heard that the man with curly beard seemed to say that the mine was more complicated and deeper, and contained the elite combat force of their perfect human beings.

Fu Qinghai is not the so-called martial arts fanatic who has to challenge his enemies one by one personally. He is not interested in what the enemies he has never met look like, what super powers they have, or what weapons they use.

Fu Qinghai is a result-oriented person. He is not obsessed with killing the enemy face to face. As long as he can achieve his goal, he doesn't care what method is used.

Fu Qinghai thought, a plastic ghost doll and a symbiote host are not afraid of poison gas, so I might as well seal the mine and fill it with poison gas.

So, he set the gas tank to transport the gas inward and pushed the output power of the ventilation fan to the maximum. Then Fu Qinghai walked away and left the mine laboratory directly.

…

Three minutes ago, deep in the mine, a blond man led five men, holding flamethrowers and searchlights, searching in the dark and complex mine.

One of the men came up and said:

"Lord Edgar, Lord Mandel urged us to return to the laboratory as soon as possible."

The blond man named Edgar kicked the gravel beside the mine impatiently and cursed:

"Damn it, every time I'm about to catch that guy, these bastards get into trouble and ruin my plans, damn it!"

Having said that, he also knew what was more important, so he did not continue to explore deeper to close the net, but led his men back the same way.

There was a long distance leading to the upper laboratory. As Edgar was walking, he suddenly sniffed and stopped.

The blond man asked:

"Do you smell anything strange?"

Upon hearing this, several of his men stopped and began to sniff violently.

"Is there a gas leak somewhere?"

"Idiot, then why didn't you smell it when we came down here?"

Only Edgar felt something was wrong the more he smelled it. His face suddenly changed and he thought of the gas tanks in Mandel's laboratory.

　Thanks to book friends 2021*9169, Zanghai6666, and Astartes Brother for their rewards.

　　Congratulations to Brother Astartes for becoming the master of this book. This ID is so appropriate that I am even considering whether the protagonist's regiment should be called the Hammer and Sickle Chapter in the future.
