Chapter 51 Born a Monster

Chapter 51 Born a Monster

Li Chengfeng originally wanted to contact the Science Baby Duo and ask them to think of a solution.

But unexpectedly, in order to be absolutely sure, Coulson actually contacted Tony Stark.

Isn't she dating Louise Lane at the Met?

Unexpectedly, Coulson actually shook this playboy over directly.

It’s true, the FBI has a good habit of calling in people when something happens.

After all, the FBI’s biggest advantage right now is that it has a large number of people.

"Aren't you hanging out with Coulson as well? Coulson called you over with just one phone call."

"I just think it's easier to communicate with a bald guy in the front than a completely bald guy." Tony Stark said jokingly, and then his voice became serious. "Miss Hacker sent the audio file when she was escaping just now. I'm working with Coulson's two science kids on how to remove the 'centipede'!"

"Adrenaline! Emotional instability causes adrenaline to surge, which will accelerate the violent reaction of the stitched version of the desperate virus in the Centipede!"

As Li Chengfeng spoke, he glanced at Mike Peterson, whose orange-red veins were lighting up again. He knew he could not hesitate any longer, so he directly opened the portal and stepped in with Mike Peterson.

"Li... Shit!"

Tony Stark, who was just talking to Li Chengfeng on the communicator, turned around and was so scared that he burst into swearing when he was seen by Li Chengfeng who appeared directly in front of him.

"You are so kind! You brought this humanoid thermobaric bomb directly to the air command center! Are you planning to send your entire team to the west?"

The destination of the portal is the laboratory above Coulson's team's airborne command center. At this time, there are only two science babies, Fitz and Gemma, plus the big foreign aid Tony Stark.

While turning on the green light to transform, Li Chengfeng took the time to tease Tony Stark.

"What nonsense! I can take him to a deserted place, but even if you come up with a solution, can you get there in time?"

Then, barriers formed by the green light of will locked Mike Peterson inside layer by layer.

He certainly would not joke about the lives of his own people. Under the barrier of the green light of will, he was absolutely sure that not even a trace of the explosion would escape.

From the beginning, the difficulty of this matter has been to save Mike Peterson's life.

"Fitz, and Gemma, now's your chance!"

"Oh my god...Listen, his emotions are related to radiation metabolism. All methods of calming his emotions can only delay the time of self-destruction..."

Fitz was a little at a loss. It was the first time he had really encountered such a crisis.

"Don't repeat the information I already know!" Li Chengfeng took a deep breath, and then used a calm voice to guide the two obviously panicked science babies, "Don't be afraid, I can guarantee that even if he explodes, it will not endanger everyone present! Since it is related to emotions and adrenaline, let him fake his death! Didn't you design a goodnight gun?"

"Yes!" Zhenma immediately took the prototype of the Goodnight Gun from the side, "But the power is still not adjusted well..."

"What a genius design... Leave the rest to me."

Tony Stark took the Goodnight Gun, and through Jarvis's scan, the design of the Goodnight Gun and the composition list of the bullets instantly appeared in front of his eyes.

"Hmm... To achieve perfect suspended animation, your bullets need less paralysis and more rigor mortis... Adding some less toxic sea snake venom should be enough to achieve the ideal level."

"There is ready-made sea snake toxin in the laboratory!" Zhenma immediately took out a portion of sea snake venom from her biological experiment area, "But this sea snake venom is too toxic and needs to be diluted."

"Dilute it twenty times... No! Fifty times! The effect of the bullets you made before is very close. You only need to make some minor adjustments to achieve the desired effect!"

Tony Stark made a prompt decision.

Li Chengfeng looked at the scene in front of him and nodded slightly.

Coulson is such a great shaker!

Although according to the original plot of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., the science duo was able to successfully develop a perfect suspended animation injection within two hours.

But now, both Skye's story and the characters in the team have changed because of this hybrid universe.

Li Chengfeng was not sure whether Fitz and Gemma in this universe could succeed in the research and development even with his own hints.

After all, the original plot only stated that the injection came from the bullet of the Goodnight Gun, but it did not specify what kind of adjustments and research were required to achieve success!

Also, he wasn't sure if Mike Peterson could last as long as in the original plot!

Fortunately, with the help of Tony Stark, a scientist who is almost at the top of humanity at this stage, the research and development time has been greatly shortened!

Fitz and Gemma immediately started to act as requested.

Jemma Simmons was responsible for diluting the snake venom and began to make injections.

Fitz took into account that Mike Peterson's body had been strengthened by the "Centipede", so he changed the bullet to a percussion type, which would be released and dissolved the moment it touched the skin, and enter the body fluid circulation through the body surface.

Li Chengfeng originally wanted to say that he could actually give the injection to him. Given the difference in strength between him and Mike Peterson, he could just stuff the injection directly into the other's mouth.

But at this time, we should not undermine the self-confidence and self-awareness of young people.

Tony Stark obviously thought the same thing, so he didn't make any suggestions.

After Li Chengfeng's initial strong suppression, although Mike Peterson's emotions were still unstable, he was wrapped in layers of green light barriers of will and could do nothing but watch everything around him.

There was silence for several minutes, and then Mike Peterson finally spoke.

"They call you Lee? Are you the one who has the final say?"

"Yes, at this critical moment I have the final say over everything on the scene and I take full responsibility."

"Is that so... Then can you let the FBI take good care of my son?"

"If you ask me, it's better for the father to take care of the child himself, right? And you don't have to scare yourself. Our team has gathered the best FBI experts and we can definitely solve this problem in your hands. So before that, I want to ask you a question."

Mike Peterson clenched his teeth and tried not to get too excited.

Then he nodded laboriously, indicating his agreement.

So Li Chengfeng pulled a chair from the laboratory, sat on it, and began to communicate with Mike Peterson in the tone of an interviewer.

"A man named Ben Parker once said that with great power comes great responsibility. Now that you have power, can you bear the responsibility behind the power and the consequences of gaining power?"

"Although you have many powers beyond human limits, does your son have them? Can you guarantee to stay by your son's side at all times?"

"What if someone controlled you by kidnapping your son and made you do bad things?"

"As far as I know, there is a super criminal named "Clairvoyance" who specializes in this kind of thing. Do you know how he will squeeze your value? First, he will implant an electronic eye into the target to monitor the target and issue instructions to control its behavior. After you complete a few tasks for him and your limbs are broken, he will also make you an experimental receptor for those mechanical enhancement components..."

Every word Li Chengfeng said made Mike Peterson break out in a cold sweat and his breathing became more rapid.

"I don't understand anything you said... I only know that with the 'centipede', I can become strong. I can even do the work of ten people in the factory! This will allow me to bring a better life to my family..."

"So, you're willing to do it even if it means hurting your son?"

Li Chengfeng's last question left Mike Peterson confused and silent.

"I know that making a choice is always difficult." Li Chengfeng patted the barrier formed by the green light of will, "But in life, you must make a choice before you can take the next step."

“…I need to protect my family’s livelihood.”

"Don't worry about that. Even if the centipede is successfully removed, the enhancement he made to your body is a foregone conclusion. But it will degenerate to about 30% of its current state over time. There are few ordinary humans who can compare with you. And you are also a victim of an evil organization. We at the FBI have corresponding compensation measures."

Mike Peterson finally broke free from the two extreme emotions of over-excitement and resentment.

After making the decision to give up the power of "Centipede", it was as if the biggest burden in my heart had been put down.

Just like Li Chengfeng said, no matter what, you have to make a choice before you can take the next step.

"Li, the power you possess is so terrifying, but why can you be so...calm?"

"That's probably because..."

Li Chengfeng thought for a while, and finally spread his hands helplessly.

"I was born to be a monster that controls power."

……

Under the pressure of time, although the science baby duo seemed a little panicked at the beginning, their hands were always very steady, and they did not make any mistakes while speeding up.

Ten minutes later, Coulson arrived at the lab with the rest of the team, including Skye and Mike Peterson's son.

"Lee! Tony! What's going on?"

“It’s the last step.”

As Li Chengfeng was speaking, Fitz pushed the bullet made of injection into the magazine, then raised the gun with trembling hands and aimed it at Mike Peterson in the barrier.

"Agent Li, please, please remove the barrier."

Li Chengfeng smiled and took the Goodnight Gun from him.

"You've done a great job."

The young man's hands were shaking like Parkinson's disease, and Li Chengfeng didn't dare let him fire the shot.

If he missed the target with one shot and stimulated Mike Peterson to the point of exploding, then all his efforts would be in vain.

"Okay, okay..."

Fitz nodded, finally breathing a sigh of relief.

But there was a hint of loss between his brows.

Coulson saw all of this.

He knew that Fitz and Gemma were not the type who just wanted to bury their heads in research...

The destination for such people should be the confidential research institute called "Sandbox".

And both of them dream of becoming excellent field agents.

That's why Coulson chose them.

So he patted Fitz and Gemma on the shoulders and said with a smile;

"You are still a long way from becoming a qualified field agent. Come on, Skye. The three of you, do your best."
