Begin from the original form of torture and become immortal

Chapter 1587: Tricking the Soldier Boy
The series of violent incidents they created not only brought great panic to the society, but also attracted the high attention of the government and major capitals.

As the leading company in the superhero industry, Vought Corporation naturally became the target of public criticism.

If you don’t want to be liquidated by the government and face bankruptcy, and at the same time avoid being jointly sanctioned by major capitals and completely disappearing from the business stage, you must try every possible way to break this almost unsolvable deadlock.

Edgar, the key decision maker of Water Company, had to contact the Russians at this critical moment.

After some difficult communication and intelligence gathering, he learned a shocking news: the soldier boy was still alive.

It turns out that after the soldier boy was hit and captured by the Russians with a super weapon, he became the experimental subject of the Russian scientific research team.

Over a long period of time, Russian scientists subjected him to various inhumane experiments and torture.

They used a flamethrower to spray high-temperature flames directly onto the soldier boy's body, trying to test his tolerance limit to high temperatures; they also used acid to corrode his body to observe how his skin and tissues reacted in a strong acid environment; they even injected radiation into his body to explore his resistance to radiation.

But what is shocking is that after countless cruel experiments, Russian scientists confirmed that the soldier boy's body is simply an indestructible fortress. No matter whether it is knives, guns, sticks, or various extreme physical and chemical attacks, they cannot cause substantial harm to him. His body is invulnerable inside and out.

The stronger Soldier Boy is obviously more uncontrollable, but Edgar has no way out at this time. Water Company is in danger, so he can only take a gamble and let the Soldier Boy return.

After a series of complex interest games and transactions, Edgar paid a large sum of money on behalf of Water Company as a reward, enough to bankrupt any small or medium-sized enterprise.

Finally, the soldier boy was carefully transported back to Vought Company.

The soldier boy's body possesses properties beyond the imagination of ordinary people. He hardly ages, and the years have left almost no traces on his face and body.

Moreover, his metabolic capacity is extremely strong. The renewal of ordinary cells in him is like a high-speed machine with extremely high efficiency.

This means that common sedatives and anesthetics have little effect on him and are unable to put him to sleep or incapacitate him.

Even if the dosage of the drug is far beyond the limit of what ordinary people can bear, it is just like a mosquito bite to him and has no substantial effect.

During the long process of research and control, the Russians could only use an extremely terrifying nerve gas - Novichok, to put the soldier boy into a coma.

Novichok, this dreaded nerve agent, is more toxic than VX, which is known as the "king of nerve agents."

It is a new type of binary chemical weapon developed by the Russians with a large investment of resources in the 1970s and 1980s.

Its uniqueness lies in that the poison is not stored directly in the bomb body, but the two chemicals are placed in two isolated containers.

Once used, under the action of special devices, the two chemicals will quickly mix together, undergo a violent chemical reaction, and instantly transform into a deadly nerve agent.

This design gives it the significant advantage of high storage safety, without having to worry about dangers such as toxic agent leakage caused by conventional storage methods.

The toxicity of "Novichok" is so strong that it is terrifying, 5 to 8 times that of VX. Its developers once vowed that its mortality rate is as high as 100% if even a tiny amount is inhaled.

However, even though the soldier boy had absorbed nerve gas for decades in the Russian experimental base, it was amazing that his body functions did not show any pathological changes or organ failure. It can be said that his resistance in all aspects was full.

After the soldier boy was awakened, he saw his old acquaintance Stan, but Stan had aged a lot and he almost couldn't recognize him.

Edgar was very calm. When facing his fellow countrymen, he was able to keep his heart rate constant and his emotions unchanged. How much more so for the soldier boy in front of him?
After all, from past understanding, the emotions of soldier boys are much more stable than those of their fellow countrymen.

The Chinese are like a spoiled giant baby, with mood swings. They will fly into a rage and do some unpredictable and extreme things when things don't go their way.

Although the soldier boy has a rebellious character, he often has his own judgment and determination when facing things.

When the soldier boy saw his acquaintance, he did not run away directly as in the original plot. Then Edgar told him what had happened over the years.

In the course of the narration, Edgar cleverly concealed the fact that all members of the Blood Debt and Blood Payback Squad had betrayed the soldier boy.

He knew in his heart that once the soldier boy knew the truth, Water Company would inevitably be implicated. After all, Water Company also played an ignominious role in it, which was tantamount to betraying him.

Therefore, during the time of searching for the soldier boy, Edgar mobilized all the resources of Water Company and worked non-stop to deal with all the insiders and related information.

Some of those who knew the inside story back then were coerced and bribed into keeping silent; others disappeared quietly and were never seen again.

Relevant documents, recordings, images and other materials were also destroyed or tampered with one by one.

So, in Edgar's carefully woven lies, the truth of the matter became that after Vought Company learned that the soldier boy was hit by the Russians' super weapon, they launched a desperate search.

However, the search was full of difficulties and nothing was found. The company's top management had no choice but to assume that he had been killed by the Russians and even his body had been taken away.

Until recently, the company accidentally learned from some secret channels the astonishing news that he was still alive. Out of respect and responsibility for the former hero, Water Company spared no expense and went through many hardships and obstacles to get him back from the Russians.

In order to make the soldier boy more convinced, Edgar also showed him the contact information and call recordings between him and the person in charge on the Russian side.

Those messages and recordings were filled with Edgar's anxiety and sincerity in redeeming the soldier boy, as well as the fierce bargaining process with Maozi.

The soldier boy frowned, watching and listening carefully, his eyes revealed a hint of doubt, but more of it was thinking about Edgar's words.

"Really? Where are my teammates?"

The soldier boy now wants to find his former lover. He hasn't seen her for so many years and he misses her very much.

"They're doing fine, that's not the problem right now, soldier boy."

Edgar pulled out a video.
