Chapter 115: Operation "Waiting for the Rabbit" Begins

"Uh, are you sure nothing's going to happen?" Banner asked uncertainly, looking around.

At this time, Banner was no longer in Noah's island laboratory, but returned to the forest in Mexico. However, Banner was not in the place where he woke up, but moved to another location in the forest. After all, if he stayed in one place all the time, the other party might become suspicious.

"Of course it's no problem, nothing will happen to you, you just need to release some gamma energy in your body, but you may have to camp here for a while." Noah stood next to the portal and took out some materials for setting up the tent and put them on the ground.

Noah and Banner had previously completed a device for tracking gamma energy in the island laboratory, but perhaps because too much time had passed and the gamma energy of the two mutant monsters was a little weak, the traces of gamma energy they left behind were slowly dissipating, making it impossible to trace their source, where the mastermind was.

So Noah estimated that he could let Banner continue to be the bait to attract the other party to look for Banner, so that he could get

new tracking clues. Moreover, the other party's first attack failed, and next time they might send out more or more powerful mutant creatures, which would definitely leave larger gamma energy traces, making tracking easier.

However, Noah didn't know when the other party would attack, so he needed Banner to wait here. These camping equipment were prepared for him, and he also needed his emotions to be slightly unstable to emit gamma energy and help those guys find Banner's trace.

"OK, what are you going to do? Should I let the Hulk come out?" Banner's tone was somewhat reluctant, because unless it was absolutely necessary, he was very reluctant to turn into the Hulk.

"Logically, you shouldn't need to. Try to see if you can hold it back." Noah thought for a moment and came up with a good idea.

"Hold on?" Banner was still confused when he saw a little light in front of him.

"Zi~"

Noah stretched out a finger, and a yellow electric light burst out from Noah's fingertips, directly hitting Banner who was in a daze.

"Uh~~~~W~~T~~~F?"

Banner was struck by a sudden lightning and began to tremble all over. Changes began to occur inside his body. His body seemed to sense the danger from the outside world and the gamma energy inside began to riot. Noah's electric shock triggered Hulk's autonomous defense system. Banner's skin began to turn green and his body size began to grow rapidly. His clothes were about to swell to the limit and were already cracking.

"Almost, almost, let's try this next." Noah looked at Banner in front of him and took out a bell from the system backpack, Mikael's Crucible.

Mikael's Crucible

Noah certainly had the power to control the electric shock directed at Banner. If the force was too strong, Banner might even be burned before he could transform into the Hulk. Just now, he suddenly had an idea. The condition for Banner to transform into the Hulk is that his emotions fluctuate greatly, the most common being anger. One of the functions of Mikael's Crucible is to make people calm, so Noah wanted to make an attempt to use the Crucible during Banner's transformation to see if he could interrupt his transformation.

"Ding-dang~~Ding~"

The clear and pleasant sound of bells rang out. Noah liked this sound very much. Every time he heard this sound, he felt that his mood was sublimated and very peaceful. I wonder if Hulk likes this sound? Noah looked at Banner opposite him.

"Hoo!!! Ugh~"

Banner's body had a huge reaction because of Noah's sudden electric shock. He knew that Noah did this to provoke Hulk, so he was not actually angry, but this electric shock stimulated the gamma energy in his body, and Hulk could no longer stop wanting to rush out of his body. Just when Banner was about to lose his mind, a crisp and pleasant voice suddenly came to his ears.

Crisp, melodious, and... peaceful?

This is what Banner felt at the moment. He now felt an unprecedented peace in his heart. He had not experienced this feeling for a long time. In all these years of chaotic life, his mood had never been calm, let alone when he turned into the Hulk. When he transformed into the Hulk, the only emotion in his memory was anger.

"Hu~Hu~" Banner looked at his bulging body. Those were the Hulk's powerful muscles. Although they were slowly shrinking, Banner could still feel the powerful force.

"What happened?" Banner shouted in disbelief. According to the usual experience, he should have turned into the Hulk, smashing things, and then he should wake up in a strange place with only a pair of shorts on his body. But now he doesn't seem to have transformed into the Hulk, no, it should be said that he has only transformed halfway, but not yet.

"How do you feel?" Noah looked at Banner's appearance, and his guess was indeed feasible. Banner now reminded Noah of Dr. Green in Avengers 4, but now he is a little smaller and is slowly recovering to his original appearance.

"Unbelievable! How did you do that? How did you do it?" Banner was a little excited. Although he had temporarily suppressed Hulk's power with the help of Stern, it was only temporary, because not long after, when he was at General Ross's base, Hulk's power suppressed the drugs and recovered.

Now he has once again returned from the Hulk form to the normal form, and his mind is now very clear, without feeling any pain, which is a different feeling from before. Banner walked forward a few steps excitedly, and before he could fully return to his human form, several footprints appeared on the ground under his feet.

"Uh, don't get excited." Noah said, shaking the bell again.

"Uh, sorry." Banner regained his calm and rationality again. Looking at his body which was gradually returning to its flesh color, Banner felt that this experience was a bit magical. He felt that the magical magic might really be enough to restore his body. He was looking forward to going to the magic holy land that Noah mentioned.

Seeing Banner calm down, Noah pressed the nanobelt and a projection appeared in front of him. Looking at the green part of the projection, Noah nodded. These green parts represented the gamma ray energy emitted by Banner. All he had to do next was wait for the other party to appear.

Banner had returned to normal by now. He shook off his shoes that had sand in them from sinking into the ground, and walked towards Noah. He saw the bell in the other's hand, and the tranquil sound just now should have been made by it.

"This bell...what is it?"

"A divine artifact, Mikael's blessing." Noah shook the cauldron and said, he was thinking about one thing now, if he shook the cauldron after Banner had completely transformed into the Hulk, would the Hulk directly transform back into Banner, or would he retain the Hulk's body and restore Banner's sanity like now? Wouldn't that make him Dr. Green?

"Mikael, the legendary angel, is indeed a very suitable name." Banner touched his chest and said, then he looked at the tent that had not yet been set up on the ground:

"OK, let's set up the tent first, and then wait for those people to come. I have never lived such a good life in the wild."

Banner looked at the things Noah brought. In addition to the tent, there were also many daily necessities. Noah speculated that the leader's mutant monster would not arrive so soon, and Banner might have to stay for a few days, so he prepared more. Of course, Noah was not sure when the other party would arrive, so he could only ask Lissandra to keep an eye on the gamma energy detector to know when the mutant monster appeared anytime and anywhere.

"Just press that." Seeing that Banner was still going to put up the tent, Noah walked over and pressed the button on the tent. The shriveled tent suddenly stood up and was built directly on the ground.

"Oh, that's quite convenient."

"OK, then Dr. Banner, you just wait here. If he appears in the forest, I will know it first, and you don't have to worry about turning into the Hulk." Noah was ready to go back. He didn't plan to accompany Banner camping here.

"Okay." Banner nodded without being pretentious, and watched the other party step into the portal. Then the portal shrank until it turned into a string of sparks and disappeared into the air.

Banner rubbed his hands and prepared to light the small stove on the ground. This kind of life alone has been his normal state over the years, and he has long been accustomed to it.
