Synopsis: Rebooting Dead Life / the Law of Infinite Control

"Miss Paige!" Howard smiled wryly. "Scientific research is not something to be taken for granted. It should be analyzed based on exact data. But now we haven't even analyzed the specific components of the serum, so what can we achieve?"

Of course Peggy Carter knew that it was useless to get angry at Howard.A look of helplessness appeared on her face. "Howard, I hope you can hurry up. You know, Steve is the only successful super soldier project. The United States needs him to strengthen the confidence of the people."

"His ghostly appearance is considered a success?!" Howard showed an obviously sarcastic look.Pointing to Steve who was lying on the sickbed and had his blood drawn by the researcher, he said, "I doubt now whether he has the social skills of a normal person! You even told me that the United States needs him to strengthen the confidence of the people. ?”

"Howard!" Peggy Carter's tone suddenly became serious, and said sternly: "What the United States needs now is only a symbol that can give the people confidence to join the war."

Howard shrugged. "Okay! If that's the case, then Steve is available anytime now. After all, you don't need him to do anything specific. I think all you need him to do is act like an actor in a stage play. That's right. Bar?"

Howard's obviously mocking words were ignored.Peggy Carter was silent for a moment.

"Steve can now...? I mean, in his current state, can there be no accidents? You know, even actors, once on the stage, there must be no accidents. Otherwise, the result will be Disastrous!"

"Of course!" Howard nodded affirmatively. "Although Steve's current state is similar to a split personality. But his main personality has not been affected at all, at most he has hallucinations occasionally. And this kind of hallucination, I mean when the Chinese personality appeared, Steve I am capable of handling it! As a clown in a stage play, there will be no problems!"

"That's good!" Peggy Carter breathed a sigh of relief. "You guys better hurry up and find a way to deduce the formula of the super soldier serum. And figure out how to get rid of the damn side effects. I'm going to take Steve away as soon as possible!"

"It seems that the battle situation on the front line is not as smooth as advertised!" Howard easily analyzed some truths about the war situation in Europe from Peggy Carter's words.

"That's not what you should know, Howard!" Peggy Carter warned sternly.

Howard shrugged nonchalantly.Turning a blind eye to Peggy Carter's warning, she gave instructions to the researcher on her own.

Not long after, Steve, who had been injected with anesthesia, woke up faintly.

Looking around blankly, Steve rubbed his blurry eyes.Said: "How? Is there a solution to my situation?"

"Sorry, Steve!" Howard shook his head. "Because of Dr. Erskine's death, we lost the specific formula of the super soldier serum. This means that we need to start from scratch. You know, sometimes scientific research is very time-consuming! So, your Problems cannot be solved overnight!"

"Okay!" Steve looked rather disappointed.He said with a heavy tone: "I always thought that I have the ability to overcome the side effects of the serum. Even Dr. Erskine believed in me, but I didn't expect that I overestimated myself and let the doctor down!"

"It's not your fault! Steve!" Peggy Carter reached out to hold Steve's hand, and comforted him softly: "Even Dr. Erskine can't really solve the side effects of super soldiers. Don't be too Guilty!"

"I just think..." Steve raised his head, stared at Peggy Carter and said, "I underestimate the darkness in my heart."

"You really think I'm the darkness in your heart?"

A voice that obviously did not belong to the members of the room suddenly rang in Steve's ear.

"It's you again!!" Steve suddenly became irritable. "You bloody bastard, get the hell out of my head!"

"Your brain?" The Chinese man's face darkened suddenly.The figure appeared in front of Steve's eyes as if teleporting, and grabbed his neck. "How arrogant are you to think that I am the dark side of your heart? What do you think you are? Just a test product made of super soldier serum, not much different from a mouse. Where did you get the courage? , talk to me like that?!"

In the eyes of others, there were no Chinese men from the beginning to the end.What they saw was that Steve suddenly became manic, and then he grabbed his own neck, as if he was crazy.

The lack of oxygen caused his face to turn red in a very short time, and even his veins burst.

"Steve, calm down! Calm down!" Peggy Carter hurriedly comforted Steve, and roared loudly to Howard beside her: "Damn it! Howard, is that what you said, okay? Do you know how much trouble Steve will cause if he shows up on stage like this? We're going to be court-martialed!"

"Don't worry, let me take a look!" Howard put away the cynical smile on his face.He leaned into Steve's ear and said, "Listen! Steve, I'm Howard, and I'm your friend. The Chinese man you see now doesn't exist at all, he's just an illusion! Don't pay attention to him The more you care, the stronger he will be! Only by ignoring him can you become stronger!"

"Illusion! Haha..." The Chinese man pinching Steve's neck suddenly burst out laughing.The tone was full of sarcasm: "Steve, do you think I'm really hallucinating?" ..

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"Mr. Stark!"

In the intensive care unit.With Steve pinching his neck like crazy.A researcher who was observing various data in the room stood up suddenly in horror.He said eagerly: "A terrible energy reaction suddenly appeared on Steve's body. This powerful energy reaction is fully tens of millions of times the power consumed when he was injected with the super soldier serum. Once he This burst of energy on his body is enough to blow up the entire New York!"

There was silence in the room for a moment, and expressions of horror appeared on everyone's faces.

It is no exaggeration to say that if the monitoring equipment did not fail, then Steve would be a complete humanoid disaster now.It is even more terrifying than the nuclear weapons researched by the Manhattan Project!

"This...this is..." Howard's eyes lit up instantly.

As a genius beyond the times.Howard has a frenzy for all unknowns.This frenzy was enough to overwhelm his fear of death.

Seeing Howard's eyes staring at Steve like they wanted to shine, Peggy Carter didn't have the same mood as him.She shuddered at the thought of destroying New York after the energy explosion on Steve's body.

"Howard, hurry up and find a way to stop Steve. You must not let his energy explode. Do you know how many permanent residents there are in New York?" Peggy Carter said eagerly.

On the sick bed.

As the lack of oxygen became more and more serious, Steve's face turned from flushed to purple.The whites of the eyes even made up for the bloodshot eyes, which looked extremely terrifying.

"He...he's not a hallucination..." Steve's eyes widened, staring at Howard's face, his voice was hoarse as if it were frosted, and gradually weakened.

"It...is it all right?" Steve didn't expect that he would pinch himself unconscious.Peggy Carter was in shock.

Seeing Steve in a coma, Peggy Carter asked Howard anxiously: "What's going on? Didn't you say that Steve is capable of handling it? But now? Not only was he almost killed by himself The killing of another personality almost destroyed the whole of New York!"

Ignoring Peggy Carter's questioning, Howard frowned, looking suspiciously at the unconscious Steve.

"Howard, I'm talking to you! Answer me, what's going on?" Peggy Carter said angrily.

"Sorry, Ms. Carter!" Howard came back to his senses, with a bit of excitement in his tone.Said: "Maybe, my previous thoughts were wrong. Did you hear what Steve said just now? He said that the Chinese personality is not his illusion!"

"I don't care about hallucinations! I just want to know when Steve's situation will get better!"

"I can't give you a definite conclusion!" Howard shook his head.His eyes were full of enthusiasm and he said: "I can only say that maybe this change in Steve is more worthy of our attention than the super soldier serum! Compared with the truth of this change, let Steve do a Actors are simply reckless!"

"You..." Peggy Carter felt a chill in her heart.From Howard's fanatical eyes as if a religious believer saw his god descending in front of her, a terrifying thought suddenly appeared in her heart.Howard wants to study the source of this terrible energy in Steve, and he wants to create this horrible thing!

As a super genius, especially now that the United States is still in a state of war, as long as the members of the government department are not idiots, they will not relax the monitoring of Howard's every move.

Don't forget, Howard is now the largest arms dealer in the United States. It can be said that on the European battlefield, at least half of the ten American soldiers are armed with weapons produced by Stark Industries.

In this case, the agents' research on Howard has gone deep and deep into the bones.
