Mei Man: I drew Superman during the Great Depression

Chapter 185 Raft Prison
On the endless sea, a lonely island stands in it.

On the island, a heavily guarded building looks extremely cold and desolate in the rough sea.

The Raft Prison, also known as the Island Prison, originally belonged to the Riker Island Prison and was the highest security department in the Riker Island Prison. Afterwards, the Thunder Special Forces acquired the ownership of the prison and transformed it into the strongest prison. To detain those vicious super-capable criminals.

"Sir!"

Landed in the raft prison by helicopter, Harry Osborn ignored the sea wind in all directions and got off the plane.

Seeing Harry coming down from the helicopter, the prison staff who had been waiting on the roof for a long time hurried forward.

With the Thunderbolts led by The Mimic Master forced to disband, control of Raft Prison was shifted, with a new leader, Harry Osborn, taking over.

Nodding, ignoring the fawning expression on the person in charge's face.

Harry turned his head to glance at the rough sea waves around the prison, and then asked, "Are you sure about the target's condition?"

"We have confirmed the situation, and there is nothing unusual about the target."

Hearing Harry's inquiry, the person in charge also restrained the expression on his face and reported.

"Take me there."

Withdrawing his gaze from the sea, Harry Osborn spoke immediately.

"Follow me, sir."

Faced with Harry Osborn's request, the prison director naturally had no reason to refuse, nodded and led the way towards the raft prison.

Because the whole prison is built on the island, the raft prison can’t avoid the feeling of humidity that follows everywhere. Affected by the sea climate, the whole prison seems to always reveal a depressive atmosphere. Walking in the prison, Harry Osborn passed through the floors, and saw some familiar figures on many prison floors.

Pass through a specially made prison, ignoring the screams and roars.

Under the guidance of the person in charge of the prison, Harry Osborn stopped at the door of the lowest cell in the raft prison. Looking at the fine sand flowing in the special seawater prison, the expression in Harry's eyes changed slightly. .

Noticing the movement outside the cell, the flowing fine sand in the seawater prison began to condense, slowly forming a blurred human face under the gaze of Harry Osborn.

"William Baker."

In the raft prison, Harry looked at this fuzzy face made of fine sand across the seawater cell, and slowly said the other person's name.

William Baker, originally a street gangster, inadvertently broke into the desert nuclear bomb test zone in Georgia in order to escape the pursuit of the police during a prison escape.

Affected by nuclear radiation in the desert, the molecular structure of William Baker's body changed and merged with the sand, becoming a sand man.

After discovering that he could control the sand at will, William Baker, or the Sandman, chose to use this ability to commit crimes.

His ability to control and transform into sand at will did bring great trouble to the members of the Thunder Agents at the time, and most physical attacks, including Luke Cage, could not cause much damage to him.But in the end, it was Natasha who discovered the other party's weakness, diluted William Baker's conversion speed with a large amount of water, and then the songbird used sound waves to control his consciousness, and related him to the special cell of the raft prison among.

In order to prevent William Baker from escaping again, the Thunder Special Agents specially designed the seawater prison that Harry saw in front of them.

Wash William Baker's body through the flowing sea water, preventing him from condensing into shape.

At the same time, the vast sea around the raft prison also blocked the possibility of William Baker escaping again.

"who are you?"

In the cell, hearing the name in Harry's mouth, the expression on his face began to change.

More fine sand condensed to form a face with fuzzy facial features. William Baker stared directly at Harry outside the prison with eyes made of sand, and spoke with difficulty.

"Harry Osborn, the new leader of Thunderbolt."

"Thunder... special agent team... new leader?"

Harry's answer made William Baker's voice in the cell change a bit.

Because of the long period of detention, most of William Baker's consciousness has become blurred, but his hatred for Thunderbolt has never been forgotten by him.

In other words, it was precisely because of this hatred that William Baker was able to maintain consciousness in the washing of the sea.

"Yes."

Nodding his head, looking at William Baker's face made of sand in the cell, Harry stated the purpose of his trip.

"Due to some special circumstances, the original Thunder Special Agents team was forced to disband, and I was recruited by the Superhuman Behavior Supervision Committee to be responsible for the formation of the new Thunder Special Agents team."

For the formation of the new Thunder Agents, Harry obviously does not intend to follow the tradition of the past.

He needs to form a team that is completely at his command, not just a team of 'superheroes'.

To this end, he used Osborne's resources to persuade the members of the Superhuman Behavior Oversight Committee to agree to recruit candidates for his team from the Raft Prison.

"I can give you freedom, but in exchange, you need to join my team and obey orders."

Looking directly at William Baker in the cell, Harry put forward his own conditions.

"I agree."

With little hesitation, William Baker agreed to Harry's request.

For him, as long as he can get out of this damn cell, he is willing to do anything.

After receiving William Baker's reply, Harry turned his head and nodded to the prison director beside him.

"Sir..."

The expression of the latter was somewhat hesitant. After all, William Baker was one of the most dangerous prisoners in Raft Prison. It took a lot of effort for the Thunder Special Agents and others to imprison him in this special prison.

It's just that I thought of the carte blanche instruction received from the Transhuman Behavior Supervision Committee.

The person in charge of the prison still gritted his teeth and issued an order: "Release the water in the G area."

"As ordered!"

Following an order from the person in charge, the connecting pipes in the cell were opened, and the seawater that originally filled the entire cell was discharged.

Ten minutes later, the seawater in the cell was drained, revealing a wet cell and a puddle of mud-like objects on the ground.

Seeing the silt in the cell, the head of the prison couldn't help swallowing, and subconsciously put his hand on the pistol on his waist.

Even though he knew in his heart that bullets could not cause the slightest damage to the target in the cell, the cold feel of the pistol on his waist still gave the person in charge a false sense of security.

Just like that, under the eyes of Harry and the person in charge outside the cell.

The silt began to squirm, revealing the fine yellow sand inside. These fine sands seemed to have some kind of life as they condensed together bit by bit, and finally formed a figure composed entirely of gravel.

"Open the cell door in Block G."

Looking at the figure in the cell, Harry opened his mouth to make an order, but heard William Baker's refusal.

"no need."

Hearing this, Harry couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and looked at the sand man in the cell, and saw him lift his legs to make a stride. With the movement of his steps, William Baker's originally condensed body collapsed again. It turned into a large amount of yellow sand and covered the entire cell floor.

The fine sand kept moving, and finally crawled out bit by bit along the gap in the pipe, forming a figure of a man in a dark green striped shirt again.

Without the washing and interference of sea water, William Baker once again had the ability to control the sand and gravel, and the prison cell in front of him could not hold him at all.

Standing outside the cell of the Raft Prison, feeling the long-lost freedom, William Baker glanced down at his fingers made of gravel. Under his gaze, grains of yellow sand slowly squirmed, although From the outside it looks like William Baker has turned into a human.

But in fact, under this layer of human appearance, his body was occupied by a large amount of yellow sand.

Clenching his fists, feeling the fine grains of sand falling from between his fingers, William Baker closed his eyes and turned to look at Harry Osborn and the others in front of him.

Under the gaze of William Baker, the person in charge tightened his grip on the pistol at his waist.

Harry, on the other hand, looked at the Sandman with his expression unchanged.

"..."

In this way, in the suffocating and depressing atmosphere, I don't know how long it has passed.

"Don't worry, I always abide by the agreement."

William Baker withdrew his gaze and said in a deep voice.

"You set me free, I will do things for you."

Hearing this, the person in charge at the side breathed a sigh of relief, but Harry turned his head as if he had expected it a long time ago, and said to the person in charge, "Continue."

……

"...McDonald, originally a private detective, was forced to become an experiment subject in an accidental investigation. In that experiment, he was injected with a drug containing scorpion serum, and was forced to wear Put on an untested scorpion suit, and later MacDonald escaped from the laboratory, but he couldn't take off his own suit, so he turned into a scorpion and used the suit's ability to do evil."

Leading Harry's Sandman out of trouble, the prison chief came to a certain cell in Block F, where a scorpion-like figure in a strange uniform was imprisoned.

"Under the bonus of the battle suit, the scorpion has superhuman strength, speed, agility, endurance and endurance. It can survive even a week without food or drink, and the special tail behind its battle suit can also spray deadly sulfuric acid, which has a strong corrosive effect."

His gaze paused for a moment on MacDonald or the freely moving scorpion tail behind the scorpion, and Harry suddenly asked.

"What happened to the person who made this suit?"

"The Thunder Special Agents team has investigated that the laboratory that manufactured the Scorpion suit has been destroyed by MacDonald, and even the researchers have been killed by him. In fact, MacDonald is the only survivor of the entire experiment. "

After listening to the person in charge's explanation, Harry withdrew his gaze from the cell.

"Scorpion?"

At the same time, the silent Sandman William Baker also took the initiative to speak.

"Leave him to me to deal with. I want to see if he can really survive in the desert like a scorpion."

……

"Rhino, whose real name is Alexei Sisevich, is a thug for the Russian gang in New York."

"Later he was forced to participate in an experiment of attaching polymers to the skin, using radiation and genetically modified chemicals to attach a layer of tough polymers to his skin with rhino horns to make him a rhinoceros, The experiment gave him super strength, speed, physical strength and durability. The shell like rhinoceros leather can withstand any high temperature and severe cold. It can also resist any attack and is almost invulnerable..."

"At the same time, Alexei also has a special rhinoceros armor, which can help him fight better."

Speaking of this, the person in charge of the raft prison involuntarily glanced at the scorpion behind the sand man.

From a certain point of view, the process and encounters of Rhinoceros and Scorpion to obtain abilities are surprisingly consistent. It is because they participated in some kind of experiment and were injected with drugs, and they were forced to wear battle suits while gaining superhuman strength. It's just that the former wears rhinoceros armor, while the latter wears scorpion battle suit.

Sensing the meaningful gaze cast by the person in charge of the prison, Scorpion MacDonald in the team frowned somewhat dissatisfied.

In the fight against William Baker just now, his ability was suppressed in all aspects.

Normal physical attacks couldn't harm the sand man at all, even if he used the scorpion tail behind to spray sulfuric acid, it only corroded a layer of gravel on William Baker's body.

This kind of injury is not considered an injury at all to William Baker, who can control the sand as he pleases.

After seeing the gap between the two sides, Scorpion finally agreed to Harry's conditions and joined the team.

"Are you kidding?"

Turning his head to look at the tall rhino in the cell, Scorpion immediately expressed his dissatisfaction.

"Why is this guy's ability so similar to mine? With the same ability, it is enough to have only one in the same team."

Even Hollywood movies know that there can only be one black character in a movie.

Why is it necessary to find two members who are so similar in experience and ability in the newly formed Thunder Agents team.

"However, my ability is better than yours."

Facing the scorpion's complaint, the rhinoceros in the cell took the lead in rebutting.

Scorpion: "I can easily lift a center of gravity truck."

Rhino: "I can lift two."

Scorpion: "No bullet, not even a bomb, can harm me."

Rhino: "I can withstand all attacks from heavy weapons such as pistols, machine guns, and rocket launchers."

Scorpion: "I can go a week without food or drink."

Rhino: "I'm two weeks..."
