"Richard, you don't have to worry about Mobius threatening us."

David smiled and said, "Do you think that the victims of the Presbyterian Hospital were killed by Mobius?"

"Is not it?"

Richard was a little surprised: "Didn't the police report claim that Mobius had acquiesced in the matter when he was questioned?"

"It's not that simple..."

David saw Richard's uneasiness, and explained patiently: "Mobius is a man with self-control, he has a smart mind, and at the same time has a higher sense of social responsibility than ordinary people. Even if he becomes a vampire, he will not be blind. Killing and sucking blood."

"I know you know him, but you don't know him."

David spoke slowly: "I have worked in Horizon Labs before, and I know what kind of person Mobius is."

"Although he does pose a certain threat to us, our goal is to improve the bat serum on the basis of his experiments, and use medicines without side effects to treat more people..."

"He's dying, he's reached the limit of the disease's life cycle, there's no other option but injections. We're different, we've had enough time to refine it, perfect it, we've seen what's possible, never fail .”

David's words dispelled Richard's worries.

"Since that's the case, then I'm relieved."

Richard nodded.

After he left, before David could catch his breath, the knock on the door rang again.

Boom boom boom!

This time it was Killian who pushed the door open.

"Dr. Killian, what's the matter?"

David was curious.

To be honest, this was the second time he had spoken to Killian.

The first time was shortly after Killian joined the job. In that conversation, Killian was very grateful to David who was willing to take him in.

"Yes, I have some thoughts about bat serum."

Killian hesitated for a moment. Seeing David's excited expression, he quickly said, "Maya Hansen, I don't know if you know her, but her research may be very helpful to us."

"Maya Hansen, Extremis?"

David grimaced.

"Great, it seems that you know her, so I don't need to explain too much..."

Killian breathed a sigh of relief: "I think the reason why the bat serum has side effects is that when the bat gene is fused with the human gene, the human nerve repair center cannot match the bat gene, which leads to serious side effects such as becoming a vampire..."

Having said that, he paused, as if thinking.

David listened carefully, and suddenly stopped speaking. He glanced at Killian in surprise, and urged, "Please continue."

Killian nodded, worded it a little, and continued: "If we can use Maya Hansen's research to reprogram the human nerve repair center to make human genes more suitable for bat genes, maybe we can do it without modifying the current bat serum. make the side effects go away.”

David understood instantly.

Killian changed his mind, instead of focusing on transforming bat serum, he started with human genes to make human genes more compatible with bat genes.

The two research directions lead to the same goal.

However, since the optimization of bat serum encounters difficulties, it is better to optimize human genes.

"where is she?"

David couldn't hold back, and immediately said, "I want to talk to her."

"MIT, she's a professor there..."

Killian answered without hesitation.

"I'll call her right away... No, that's not enough. I'll fly over to see her in person."

Delighted, David called to book a plane ticket for tomorrow.

As he said that, he found Killian standing in front of him with a tangled expression on his face, he couldn't help being surprised: "Is there anything else?"

"Can I go with you?"

Killian blushed a little, lacked confidence, and whispered: "Actually, I have always admired...Dr. Hansen..."

"Of course, I'll book two tickets right now, and you will come with me."

David understood that this was dog licking.

He laughed dumbfounded, and did not refuse Killian's request.

……

at the same time.

In a tall building not far from Empire State University.

A man in a hoodie and hat, eyes closed, listens to the city's every move.

He seemed to have heard the conversation between David and his employees, with a complex expression on his face showing hesitation, and finally he sighed lightly, then his body flashed, and he suddenly rose into the air, his limbs seemed to be blurred in the air, black mist appeared, and he disappeared in place.

If someone saw his face, he would definitely recognize him as the vampire murderer that was repeatedly broadcast on TV today.

Michael Morbius.

Chapter 54 Invitation

the next day.

The sky is clear and it is a good weather for flying.

The plane took off from Kennedy International Airport and landed at Boston Logan International Airport.

As the largest airport in New England, Logan Airport is very busy with tens of millions of passengers coming here every year.

David pushed his way through the crowd.

Killian followed him. Although he was an employee, he was more like a younger brother. He was always half a step behind him, watching his every move.

"You don't have to be so nervous. Even if I was found to have a genotyped blood disease, my physique is much stronger than that of ordinary people. I can walk without any problem, but a little slower than ordinary people."

David was helpless.

I didn't feel the so-called inferiority complex, after all, the blood disease is very likely to be cured.

He now carries the bat serum in his arms.

If you want to cure the disease, you only need to inject the serum.

However, although bat serum has the function of curing diseases and enabling people to obtain superpowers, it also has unacceptable side effects.

If it is not a last resort, he will not inject until he finds a solution.

The time limit for the task of the new identity was very long, it took six months, which broke the record.

David has plenty of time to find a way to crack it.

Even if he can't find a way to eliminate the side effects of the bat serum within six months, even if he gives up the system rewards, he will not rush to inject if his own safety is not affected.

"clear."

Killian said so verbally, but his actions were stubborn.

He still followed David, and he didn't relax a little until the two took a taxi and headed to their destination.

Cambridge is not the Cambridge in the UK, but a city next to Boston, Massachusetts, USA. It is opposite to the downtown area of ​​Boston across the Charles River and belongs to the Boston metropolitan area.

The reputation of this place is not inferior to that of Cambridge, England, and even to a certain extent, it is greater than Cambridge, England.

Because there are two world-renowned universities in Cambridge.

Harvard and MIT.

The destination of David and Killian's trip is the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, Boston.

After Christmas, it's school season.

There are many people at the gate of the college.

David and Killian got out of the taxi like father and son coming to register for school.

January is the time for spring admission.

At the door, a round-faced girl with freckles saw the two of them, and stepped forward to greet them proactively.

She was smiling all over her face, and her eyes were rolling on the slightly pale and slightly sick David's face.

"A freshman coming to report?"

The round-faced girl smiled and said, "I'm a volunteer to welcome new students. I can tell you about the school rules and campus culture. The teacher will handle the issue of accommodation."

"Sorry, I'm not a freshman, I'm here to find someone."

David shook his head.

"Hello, do you know Maya Hansen?"

Killian couldn't hold back: "Is she at school today?"

"Are you looking for Ms. Hansen?"

The round-faced girl smiled and said, "I am her student. She is at school almost every day. I can take you to meet her."

After a while.

The two came to Maya Hansen's laboratory.

"Can I leave a call?"

The round-faced girl was very active before leaving, and she winked at David: "Although you are not a student of our school, you are my favorite."

"Sorry, I don't have a cell phone."

David smiled and refused.

The round-faced girl was furious, her chest heaved violently, she gave David a hateful look, turned around and left.

You don't even want to come up with a good excuse.

"Boss, actually I think you can..."

Killian was dumbfounded, feeling subverted worldview, and worded it slightly: "A more tactful rejection."

"You think I'm you?"

David glanced at Killian and knocked on the laboratory door.

Boom boom boom!

"Please come in."

A gentle female voice came from the room.

Hearing this voice, Killian swallowed, his body tensed up, becoming tense visibly to the naked eye.

"You really are a licking dog..."

David sighed, opened the door and walked in.

Maya Hansen looks to be in her early 30s, with long dark hair, not extremely beautiful, but very temperamental, like a ripe apple, one can't help but hold it in her hand and take a bite.

Compared to her title of professor, she is quite young in her early thirties, and she is a well-deserved genius.

At a scientific conference held in Bern, Sweden, a few months ago, Tony Stark, who had a one-night stand with her, praised her—she was the smartest woman he had ever seen, at least in Switzerland.

Being able to get such praise from the mouth of the Marvel universe's own father, the smartest man in Marvel, it is conceivable that Maya Hansen is definitely not a vase role.

"Hello, do we know each other?"

Maya Hansen looked curious when she saw David: "Which department are you a student from?"

"Sorry, my name is David Fisk, and I'm from Empire State University, not an MIT student."

David introduced himself, and then pulled Killian: "He's Aldredge Killian, you should have met him."

"That... Ms. Hansen, we met at a scientific conference in Switzerland, do you remember?"

Killian raised his hand nervously to say hello.
