American comics: Playing Spider-Man at the beginning, wandering around and losing contact

Chapter 166 The Last Resort

"What's going on? Tell me in detail." On the other side of the phone, Drake frowned and spoke in a serious tone!

He did not expect this to happen. No, to be precise, he expected this possibility, but according to rigorous probability statistics, the probability of it happening was only one in a hundred thousand!
However, this is the fact, right before our eyes.

No one knows Eric's strength better than Drake, otherwise, with Drake's ruthless nature, he would never choose to let Eric take action.

Upon hearing this, several mutants hesitated and looked unwilling to talk about it. It was obvious that the battle just now and the exaggerated doomsday scene they witnessed had a great shock to these mutants.

It’s not that they don’t want to speak, but the horrible feeling makes them unwilling to recall anything at all!
Even just one frame is a torture to one’s will!
"What?" Drake listened to the silence of the crowd, his tone cold and a little confused.

Being defeated would be fine, but was he scared silly?

Drake naturally couldn't guess the reason why they were silent.

At this time, Mystique remained calm. She took a deep breath and suppressed her trembling emotions.

"Dr. Drake, that guy's strength... is too outrageous. It's not our fault."

Drake doesn't need a reason, he is an absolute egoist, and results and goals are what he cares more about.

As for the reason, it's just an excuse for incompetent people!

"Are you making up an excuse? Mystique. Tell me where Eric is now. I want to talk to him in person!" Drake said angrily and impatiently.

It can be seen that he probably thought that Mystique and the others were fooling him. But Drake thought he was not so easy to fool.

How could there be someone in this world who could easily defeat Magneto?

That's a level 5 mutant!

Combined with the power of the symbiote, it's comparable to that of the Omega mutant!

"Eric... hasn't woken up yet, and his life or death is unknown." Mystique sighed and said helplessly.

After the words were spoken, there was a long silence on the other end of the phone.

Drake, who was in the base at the moment, had his pupils trembling, and then, as if to prove something, he opened the data test results for Eric.

Every item is far superior to that of a level 5 mutant!

Among all the experimental subjects of the Life Foundation, Eric's body is the most suitable for the symbiote, except for his last semi-finished product.

"Are you kidding me? If Eric is dead or alive, how can you survive?"

"I didn't lie. Eric's magnetic attack had no effect on him." Riven spread her hands helplessly.

"Forget it..." Drake gritted his teeth and slammed his fist on the table! "I didn't think it through... There is such a result... As I expected, the probability of that kid defeating Eric is less than one percent..."

Even though Drake was the most staunch believer in data theory, his mind was somewhat shaken at this moment.

"No, you are wrong. Not only Eric, but even Colossus..." Mystique added.

The words that were not spoken had already made the matter clear.

Colossus, under the chaos magic, his muscles were torn apart, leaving only a shriveled skeleton.

Bones that were as hard as vibranium turned into plastic that was so fragile that it could withstand a single blow.

"You...you said Colossus, he died immediately?"

An indestructible body, and a steel warrior with almost no weaknesses on the defensive end.

Drake knew that when it came to killing ability, the bulky Colossus was not outstanding.

But in terms of endurance, he can be said to be one of the best among these mutants.

"You heard it right. I don't need to repeat it a second time. Eric is already in a coma. The cooperation between our Brotherhood of Mutants and the Life Foundation will also be terminated here."

In the beginning, it was Eric who led the collaboration because he saw the power of the symbiote experiment developed by Drake, which could turn mortals into monsters with extraordinary powers.

But at the moment, it is obvious that even Kailus, who has not undergone transformation, can defeat Eric who has been assimilated by the symbiote, which is enough to prove that Eric's previous idea was actually wrong.

They need to correct this mistake and stop the loss in time.

This means that it is time to terminate the cooperation with the Life Foundation.

Inside the base, Drake listened to the firmness in Riven's words and slammed the table in anger.

Now that you've gotten the benefit, you want to abandon him?

Should he face Kailus' revenge alone?

"Can you say that again!"

Drake's roar did not bring any response. Raven had already hung up the phone.

Behind Drake, a group of clone researchers gathered together, watching their leader Drake roaring without composure.

"What happened to Dr. Drake? Is there another experiment gone wrong?"

"No... I seem to have overheard him saying something about the mission failing..."

"What kind of mission failure would make Dr. Drake so angry..."

"It doesn't matter. As long as we complete the research on Subject Zero under the leadership of the Doctor, everything will be fine..."

During the discussion, Drake stood up and walked over to the cloned researchers.

His gloomy expression highlighted his bad mood at the moment.

And impulse is often a harbinger of the devil's arrival.

"Doctor, the research progress of Research Subject Zero has reached 95%..."

Seeing Drake coming, several people hurriedly reported the situation.

However, Drake no longer had time to care about so much.

"Ninety-five? That's enough."

Drake, who has always been rigorous, could no longer remain calm.

Eric's mission failure made him feel a deep sense of crisis. It was a sense of crisis that was like the sound of a raging storm, as if in the next moment, a guy would rush out from the darkness and wipe him out.

Or more accurately, it is a precursor to mental illness.

"Doctor, you..."

The whole group of people were dumbfounded.

Drake has repeatedly stressed that research subjects cannot be used in advance until they have reached 100% progress. This is a kind of disrespect for the great life sciences.

However, Drake was the first to break this taboo.

"I don't want to say it again, you know? Clone D3168. If you don't want to be remade, do as I say. Right now, right now!"

Dr. Drake spoke each word with gritted teeth.

Within his sight, panicked figures were fleeing, and the black and white documents flying all over the sky were particularly messy.

These data record the latest data of Symbiote Zero.

"We have cracked 95 percent of the life science and technology data on the Kryptonian spacecraft... that should be enough!"
