"His legs can go supersonic, why are you still worried about his pants? Who knows what his pants are made of? Maybe they're some kind of special engineering material," another scientist beside him explained.
"But isn't the difference in this guy's combat power too big? Compared to when he fought the vampire nine days ago, his speed is more than twice as fast, but his strength is only about four times as much."
"Hiding his strength, hiding his strength, how do you know this video shows his full power?" The scientist rolled his eyes and said, "Maybe he just held back both times to avoid using too much force and, like you said, ripping off his underwear?"
“That makes some sense.” The others nodded in agreement, while Nick Fury, who had listened the whole time, tapped his fingers lightly on the table, lost in thought.
Outside the teaching building, unlike the students who were watching the spectacle, Gwen sat on the steps, waiting silently.
The next moment, a pair of hands suddenly reached out and covered her eyes, saying in a familiar voice, "Guess who I am."
Seeing this childish behavior, Gwen gave a helpless smile, turned around and hugged Bai Ye, asking with concern, "Daddy didn't make things difficult for you just now, did he?"
“Of course not. He chatted with me for a bit and then went to do other things.” Bai Ye gently put his arm around Gwen’s slender waist and said, “You know Chief George’s attitude; he neither approves nor opposes.”
"Hmm." Gwen leaned against Bai Ye's chest, then asked, "What have you been doing lately? Sometimes you don't even answer my calls."
“I spend most of my time training, but the factory did take in a mutant,” Bai Ye said casually.
Because Gwen could hear the roar of the machines when she made phone calls during the day, she wasn't completely unaware that Bai Ye was exercising with the machines in the factory.
"Mutants? Men and women?" Gwen looked up with some suspicion.
"Of course it's a girl, and she's quite pretty, but so far, our relationship hasn't gone beyond pure friendship," Bai Ye said.
Seeing Gwen's lips slightly pouting in dissatisfaction, Bai Ye laughed and, amidst her gasp, picked her up in a princess carry. Then, his inner energy surged forth, enveloping the two of them together.
"Bai, what are you doing?" Gwen asked in a panic, grabbing Bai Ye's neck.
"I still owe you a movie ticket from last time, let's go now. Lie down and don't move," Bai Ye said with a smile, then pushed off the ground with both legs and flew towards the movie theater with Gwen.
Chapter 70 Sentinel Project
In a factory in New York City, under the cover of white night, Little Rascal stares intently at the white mouse in his hand, which is writhing in agony and gradually losing its ability to resist.
Hundreds of drained white mice lay around her, while in the sealed box behind her, hundreds more lively mice quietly awaited their fate.
Looking at the dry, lifeless white mouse in his hand, Little Mischief murmured, "This is the 151st one. Compared to the first one, it has survived for much longer. Mr. Bai was right. It seems that it won't be long before I can control my absorption ability."
'If I can achieve the level of only absorbing physical energy, then I can help Mr. Bai train.'
Thinking that in a few days, she could openly be intimate with Bai Ye, a blush appeared on Xiao Taoqi's face, and she quickly reached into the box with her right hand and scooped out a white mouse.
It seemed that the fluctuation of her emotions affected her ability to control herself. Just a few seconds later, the 152nd mouse was drained of its life force and died faster than ever before.
Watching the white mouse die so quickly, the little rascal took a deep breath to calm himself down before reaching into the box.
……
'I never imagined the world had changed so much; even in 2010, the Marvel Cinematic Universe had Inception released.'
Inside the movie theater, watching Leonardo DiCaprio spin a top, Gwen leaned on Bai Ye's shoulder as the two quietly watched the film together. Since it was a weekday daytime, the theater was sparsely populated.
However, as Bai Ye watched, he sensed something was wrong, because some of the moviegoers nearby had their hearts beating too strongly.
Although these people looked just like ordinary people in terms of demeanor, temperament, and clothing, in Bai Ye's ears, each of them had a steady and powerful heartbeat, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they were athletes.
Thinking of a certain possibility, Bai Ye's eyes narrowed slightly. It was rare for him to come out to watch a movie, and if he were interrupted, he would really be asking for trouble.
Fortunately, the other party remained quiet throughout the movie, and did not cause any trouble even after the movie ended and the theater closed.
"Chief, aren't we going to follow them?" An agent asked, watching Bai Ye skip away with Gwen by the hand.
“I’m here to exchange ideas, not to offend anyone. There’s absolutely no need for me to get involved at this time,” Nick Fury said calmly.
Without the interference of secret agents, Bai Ye spent the entire morning playing with Gwen, from the movie theater to the amusement park, kissing, hugging and lifting her up high along the way, which gradually increased the tacit understanding between the two.
When it was noon, Bai Ye glanced at the sky and said, "It's getting late, let me take you home first."
"Let's go back." Gwen said reluctantly, "Don't you want to play a little longer?"
"I've already exceeded my entertainment time limit today. I still need to go back and exercise. If you want to play, we'll have to make an appointment for next time," Bai Ye said. Tonight, he could only cut back on the time he spent playing cards with Camilla in bed and make up for the missed exercise.
Gently wrapping her arms around Bai Ye's neck, Gwen nodded somewhat sullenly. Then, Bai Ye lifted the girl up in his arms, leaped lightly, and headed towards the direction where the girl was going home.
In a military base, Stryker held a phone, and Ross's voice came through: "That kid White Night has already rejected you. He's a mutant protector, and you two can't work together."
"A mutant protectionist? Are there still normal people who want to protect mutants these days?" Stryker looked annoyed, but still said helplessly, "I understand, I won't go looking for him again."
Stryker hung up the phone casually and turned to ask, "How are the preparations for the UN summit in New York going?"
His subordinate immediately handed him a document, saying, "This is the list of summit participants we investigated."
Stryker flipped through the list and quickly spotted a name among the visitors: Charles Xavier!
“I knew you’d come.” Stryker smiled and shook the list in his hand.
At the United Nations summit in New York a month later, one of the topics was related to the Mutant Registration Act.
In this situation, how could Professor X, who cares about the unity of mutants and humanity, not come to listen in? Sure enough, Stryker only needed to check the list to get pretty close to the truth.
A fiery glint flashed in Stryker's eyes as he thought of Professor X's psychic abilities that could influence the entire world.
With Professor X and the replica helmets made in their base, wiping out all mutants in the world wouldn't be a problem.
According to the original plot, Professor X was knocked unconscious by Mystique before the global summit, so he was unable to attend, which pushed Stryker's plan to exterminate mutants back a year.
“Arrest this mutant on his way to the UN summit.”
"Remember, this mutant has extremely strong mental abilities, but physically he's just a cripple in a wheelchair. You must make him lose consciousness before he can react."
Stryker pointed to Charles's name on the list and said coldly, "I want to wipe all mutants off the face of the earth, leaving none alive."
"Yes, sir," the officers behind him replied in unison, then turned to prepare for action.
As the sergeants left, a sealed file folder lay quietly on Stryker's desk, its title reading: "[Sentinel Robot Mass Production Plan]".
The names of those who handled this project were listed below: [Bolivar Traysker], [Howard Stark], [Alexander Pierce], [Henry Jonathan Pym], [Reed Richards]...
Stryker's gaze fell on the file bag. He carefully put the documents away, got up, and walked out of the room.
At this moment, Bai Ye was unaware of Stryker's plan. After a stylish somersault in the air, he landed smoothly with Gwen in his arms.
"Good afternoon, we'll talk on the phone tonight." Bai Ye gently kissed Gwen on the cheek before seeing her into her home.
The moment the gate closed, Bai Ye's figure vanished instantly, appearing amidst the howling wind before a man with a head the size of a hard-boiled egg.
"You sent people to follow me all the way, and then you even staked out my girlfriend's house. So, what does the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. want with me?" Bai Ye asked Nick Fury calmly.
Nick Fury wasn't surprised by Bai Ye's revelation of his identity, since Bai Ye and Ross had a good relationship and it was normal for him to know about him.
So he said in a kind tone, "It's nothing, I just wanted to talk to you."
“Chatting is fine, but could you please have that psychologist on the other end of your headset shut up?” Bai Ye stared directly at Nick Fury’s forehead.
Chapter 71 A big witch meets a small witch
Bai Ye's gaze was fixed on Nick Fury, and he could clearly hear the various communication techniques suggested by the psychologist being spoken to him.
“From now on, every action I take will be analyzed in detail. Aren’t you S.H.I.E.L.D. being a little too rude?”
As soon as Bai Ye uttered his calm words, the psychologist on the other end of the headset, who had been speaking fluently, seemed to have his throat choked, and stopped talking, leaving the entire room silent.
“I’m sorry, this is a necessary preparation for important figures. After all, your threat is too strong, and we are somewhat afraid of you.” Nick Fury took off his headset, his tone gentle and his posture very humble.
"My threat?" Bai Ye scoffed. "Please, I'm a law-abiding citizen, aren't I? I've dealt with robbers, vampires, and lizardmen, yet you all turn around and are so wary of me."
“Of course, I fully believe in the legitimacy of your actions after becoming a superhero,” Nick Fury said with a smile. As for White Night’s disgraceful deeds before he became famous, neither of them mentioned them.
"The reason I'm here is because our organization wants to establish a league specifically composed of superheroes, so I wanted to ask if you're interested. I think you have a lot of potential."
"Oh, then I'd like to ask, who's currently in your alliance?" Bai Ye asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Because it's just a preliminary concept and we're still in the selection phase, we currently only have one sharpshooter from within S.H.I.E.L.D. and one well-trained female agent," Nick Fury said.
"A sharpshooter? A female agent?" Bai Ye's lips curled slightly, and he leaned forward, exuding an aura of pressure: "Just two ordinary people, from my alliance. Do they even deserve to be called that?"
"What if something happens and I have to save them?" Bai Ye said.
"This young man is really rude." Inside S.H.I.E.L.D., Natasha listened to Bai Ye's sarcasm, cut off the communication with him, and muttered a slight complaint.
“The future alliance won’t just have these two members; there will be many more people with the same potential as you joining,” Nick Fury tried to salvage the situation.
"I remember there's an X-Men group next door, right? Why don't you guys consider poaching their members? They have plenty of ready-made fighting force over there."
Bai Ye said, "Ross told me that this is a large international organization, but after all this time, it turns out that this so-called alliance is full of ordinary people. It doesn't seem that impressive. You've dragged down the overall prestige of the organization."
"Is there anything else you need from me this time? If not, I'll be leaving." Bai Ye said impatiently. He hadn't expected that he had been called here just to talk about this. So much time had been wasted; the forging machines in the factory were practically rusting.
"boom!"
Nick Fury wanted to speak again, but the next moment, as the dust rose into the sky, Bai Ye, too lazy to pay attention to his nonsense, disappeared from the spot, leaving only the silent director standing there.
After a long pause, Nick Fury sighed and said, "What a superman. I hope he's not going to be our enemy."
……
Inside the factory, the little rascal was still holding a white mouse in his hand, experimenting with its abilities.
As more and more mice died from her sucking, she found that her strength seemed to have increased significantly.
It's like absorbing the death of an object; the energy absorbed can permanently strengthen the object.
'My ability is terrifying.' A hint of surprise flashed in Little Rascal's eyes. The next moment, a strong wind swept through the factory. By the time Little Rascal reacted, he saw Bai Ye already standing on the equipment, ready to start it up.
"Mr. Bai, you're back!" Little Rascal exclaimed with delight, then immediately recounted what he had just discovered.
"Oh, not bad, keep up the good work." Bai Ye nodded calmly, offering encouragement.
There are only 70 billion people on Earth. Even if the conversion efficiency reaches 100%, it won't be that high. Moreover, given Little Rascal's current absorption speed, it would take an unknown amount of time to suck the entire world's population to death.
Smith, who was waiting on the side, turned on the machine, and the roar echoed through the factory, while Bai Ye exercised and stared blankly at his arms.
He discovered that during his battle with Dr. Lizard, there was a significant deviation in his control over his strength, ranging from tens of kilograms.
'Is it because the difference between the Spirit and Strength attributes is too large?' Bai Ye looked at the two attributes on the panel, which differed by about 0.5.
Now, every time Bai Ye's attributes increase, he measures his own strength. His strength has increased from 2.7 to 3.2, which is about four times the previous level.
Initially, a large gap between physical attributes and strength would cause the body to be unable to withstand the exertion. Now, all the attribute points to be used are added to strength and physical attributes, while mental attributes have fallen behind.
The mental attribute represents control, comprehension, focus, and patience. With a difference of 0.5 attribute points, the side effects of the significant attribute deviation finally appeared.
'It seems that from now on, I must allocate all my attribute points to Spirit, otherwise I might accidentally tear Camilla apart while playing cards tonight,' Bai Ye thought to himself.
