“What’s wrong, baby? Don’t you like speeding?” The driver raised an eyebrow at Betty and smiled.
"This is a characteristic of New York City; you have to get used to it."
After saying that, seeing Betty blurt out "FUCK," the driver slammed on the gas and drove away laughing.
“This city is insane! That’s why I don’t like New York!” Betty said angrily.
Banner, who was standing next to him, had calmed down and his watch was no longer beeping.
Seeing Betty's barely suppressed anger, he gently advised, "Over the years I've learned some ways to calm down anger, would you like to..."
"Shut up!" Betty said, glaring at Banner before striding toward the school.
Banner smiled helplessly upon hearing this, and then followed her inside.
Finally, in front of a building, they met Dr. Samuel Stern, also known as Mr. Blue.
“You’re Mr. Blue, right?” Banner said, wearing a hat and looking at Dr. Stern.
Dr. Stern opened his eyes wide in surprise upon hearing this, looking at Banner, who appeared no different from any other person: "Mr. Green?"
To be honest, he was quite surprised, because based on the blood samples he received, he couldn't imagine what the so-called Mr. Green would be like, given his enormous power.
But when Banner appeared before him, he had to admit that sometimes reality is just that unbelievable. He thought it was impossible for a person to have such enormous power, but this person was right in front of him.
“This isn’t the place to talk. Follow me.” Dr. Stern said as he led them toward his research institute, his expression and tone revealing barely suppressed delight.
......
At night, on the rooftop of a low building outside Dr. Stern's research institute, Coulson led Holm up to the roof and exchanged nods with General Ross, who jumped down from a helicopter.
General Ross was accompanied by a short but powerful, fully armed soldier, who was none other than Bronsky, who had been beaten into a pulp by Banner in the footage.
Seeing Bronsky appear here unharmed, even more powerfully than before, Holm felt a little more at ease. It seemed that his hatred was already on its way.
Standing on the edge of the rooftop, Coulson peered through binoculars at Banner and his group talking in the lab. With his signature smile, he chuckled softly, "Looks like our Mr. Blue and Mr. Green have finally met."
Beside him, General Ross, after hearing Coulson's words, said without a smile, "This time, thanks to the help of S.H.I.E.L.D., we were able to find Bruce Banner so quickly."
"However, I have already arranged the manpower for the next operation, so there is no need to trouble the people from S.H.I.E.L.D."
General Ross's attitude was clear: S.H.I.E.L.D. had done enough in terms of effort and publicity in the search, and the military should take over the rest.
Listening to General Ross's words, Coulson, with his unchanging smile, said softly, "Of course, you are in charge of this operation, and S.H.I.E.L.D. is just helping out from the sidelines."
Hearing Coulson's sensible response, General Ross said nothing more, but simply pursed his lips and looked through his binoculars at the three who were still arguing.
He knew Banner's purpose in coming to see Dr. Stern, and judging from the current situation, they should have already completed the experiment they had discussed.
He now only hopes that Banner hasn't succeeded in eliminating the Hulk, otherwise even shooting Banner 10 times wouldn't be enough to make up for the impact of the disappearance of the powerful bio-weapon, the Hulk.
“This gentleman looks familiar. I remember now, he’s that super soldier from the footage. I didn’t expect his injuries to heal so quickly.” While General Ross was thinking, Coulson next to him also looked at Bronsky and smiled.
Bronsky didn't say anything, but just grinned, revealing a somewhat strange smile.
Upon hearing this, General Ross looked at Coulson and said, "My soldiers are not that fragile. They will be the main force in the fight against the Hulk if an accident occurs."
"Starting point?" Coulson was a little doubtful. His meaning was clear, after all, Bronsky was beaten to a pulp last time, and this time he was still the starting point.
“I’m different now.” Before General Ross could say anything, Bronsky grinned and said.
Coulson didn't say anything more after hearing this. Although he also felt that Bronsky seemed a bit strange, it was a military matter and had nothing to do with him.
"All personnel at the school have been cleared, and Sniper positions have been established in Area A..."
Upon hearing the feedback in his headset, General Ross gestured to Bronsky beside him.
Seeing this, Bronsky nodded, then led a few men away from the rooftop to capture Bruce Banner.
Watching his departing figure, General Ross pressed the intercom and said, "Ready, mission initiation!"
At his command, the sniper who was ready beside him pulled the trigger and fired a tranquilizer dart at Banner.
Seeing Banner shot and fall to the ground, General Ross lowered his binoculars, a rare smile appearing on his lips.
Coulson, who was also watching this scene, asked Holm in a low voice, "Do you think their operation can succeed like this?"
Holm shook his head upon hearing this, and lowered his voice as well, saying, "If it were that easy, how would you explain the failures of the past few years?"
"I think it won't be that easy. We will definitely be able to get involved in this incident."
Hearing Holm's answer, Coulson smiled and said, "That's how I feel too."
"You'd better be prepared if anything unexpected happens. That Bronsky always seems a bit strange, and I find it hard to believe that he can stand up to the Hulk."
"I didn't expect the commander to have so much confidence in me." Holm said with a smile, "Then I can't let the commander down. If any unexpected situation arises later, I will do my best."
"Don't worry, we won't let you deal with that big guy alone. The department has already made all the arrangements." Coulson said, pointing to the night sky above.
"Once the military loses control of the situation, it will be time for S.H.I.E.L.D. to shine."
Chapter 170, The Capture of Banner, The Birth of Hatred
"Bruce! Bruce!" Betty pulled the anesthetic out of Banner's back and hugged him, calling out in a panic.
They had just mentioned that the government's intention was not to use gamma technology to cure more people, but to turn them into weapons, while Dr. Stern was saying that Banner was too suspicious, as if he had paranoia.
Before he could finish speaking, Banner, who had just been arguing with him, collapsed to the ground, causing Dr. Stern's eyes to widen in disbelief: "They actually dared to do this!"
At this moment, Bronsky had already jumped up the stairs from below, his eyes fixed on Banner, who was lying on the ground, looking somewhat weak.
Betty tried to stand up to stop him, but he pushed her away as soon as she got there, knocking over the bookshelf next to her.
Banner was furious at the sight before him, but because he had just been injected with a large amount of antidote, his anger did not change at all, and Hulk seemed to have disappeared.
Bronsky grabbed Banner by the collar and slapped him repeatedly, yelling menacingly, "Where is he? Let him out! Let him out!!"
"Make him come out to see me! Make him come to see me!"
As Blonsky spoke, he continued to slap Banner's face. Despite the watch on his wrist beeping rapidly, Banner remained unmoved, slumped helplessly on the ground, letting Blonsky grab his collar and slap him repeatedly.
"Where did you take him?! You damned bastard! Ah!!!"
Bronsky grew even angrier at Banner's unchanging behavior, and under his constant beatings, Banner's face became red and swollen.
"Blonsky! Put him down! This is the general's order!" Several soldiers ran up at this moment, shouting to stop Blonsky.
Bronsky was much faster than them. They rushed as fast as they could but were still a bit behind. The general had instructed them to capture him alive, but judging from Bronsky's demeanor, they were also afraid that Bronsky might hurt Banner. They were just lowly soldiers and couldn't bear such a responsibility.
Betty, who had fallen to the side, was also picked up by several soldiers and dragged outside. Dr. Stern was terrified and dared not say a word, his eyes wide open, for fear that the irritable Bronsky would come over and hit him too.
At the building entrance, General Ross looked down at Banner, who was strapped to a stretcher and looked utterly dejected, and said viciously, "If he really is gone, then you'd better be prepared to spend the rest of your life in jail. I'll have someone take good care of you."
Banner listened to these words without any expression, only glancing at General Ross with eyes full of disgust and contempt.
"Take him away." General Ross waved his hand, and the soldiers quickly pushed Banner away.
Betty, who came out later, saw the direction Banner had left and quickly chased after him, but General Ross grabbed her arm: "Betty, this farce should end."
Betty turned around and flung General Ross's hand away: "I will never forgive you for what you did to him."
“He’s a fugitive,” General Ross said.
“Isn’t that your fault?” Betty stared into General Ross’s eyes and said, “To cover up your failure and protect your career.”
"Stop treating me like your daughter."
"You weren't handcuffed just because you're my daughter," General Ross said, somewhat annoyed.
Betty didn't say anything when she heard this, she just stretched out her hands and looked at him.
On the rooftop, Coulson, witnessing this scene, couldn't help but remark, "What an irreconcilable family conflict."
"It has to be said that Betty's personality is quite similar to General Ross's; they are both equally stubborn."
Holm smiled and said, "Bruce Banner is the same. Although he didn't say anything just now, I could tell from his filthy eyes that he was cursing."
After he finished, he looked up thoughtfully at the laboratory window; Bronsky hadn't come out yet.
Coulson noticed Holm's gaze and asked curiously, "What's wrong? What are you looking at?"
“I was wondering where that Bronsky went; I only saw him go in, not come out,” Holm replied.
Upon hearing this, Coulson thought for a moment and said, "They're probably still dealing with something."
"Let's go, we're going to escort Bruce Banner with them. Looks like tonight's over. It's surprisingly easy. It seems our feeling just now wasn't quite right."
As he spoke, Coulson patted Holm on the shoulder, and then the two of them walked downstairs together.
Holm followed Coulson's footsteps after hearing this, and glanced back at the window one last time.
Their intuition was certainly correct; an accident was bound to happen eventually, but the source wasn't Banner, who had already been brought under control, but rather Bronsky, who had become somewhat strange.
In the lab, Blonsky held a gun to Dr. Stern's head and said menacingly, "I don't like nonsense. I just want you to do one thing: turn me into Banner."
Bronsky's words startled Dr. Stern, but his excitement for scientific inquiry quickly overcame his fear.
“Your body is different from normal people’s. It seems that something has already formed inside you, hasn’t it?” Dr. Stern asked tentatively.
Upon hearing this, Bronsky shoved the pistol back into his hand and continued, "That's not enough. I need to become stronger than Banner, stronger than the Hulk."
"I think you must have seen what he looks like after he transforms. He's quite captivating, isn't he?"
Hearing Blonsky's words, and recalling Banner's transformation in the experiment, Dr. Stern exclaimed excitedly, "Yes! I've seen it! It's simply a miracle! I've never seen such a transformation before. My God, you really should see it too..."
“That’s enough, I need to become like that.” Bronsky interrupted his musings and stated his demand firmly.
Dr. Stern did not refuse, but continued, "I don't know what's already inside you; it might turn into something bad..."
Bronsky's patience had run out; he didn't want to hear any more nonsense.
He grabbed Dr. Stern by the neck and glared at him fiercely.
Dr. Stern immediately looked breathless, his face flushed, and he managed to utter a few words with difficulty: "I...will..."
Upon hearing this, Bronsky threw him to the ground. Dr. Stern gasped for breath, then rubbed his neck and stood up, leading Bronsky back to the place where he had just finished the experiment on Banner.
Before he could speak, Bronsky had already lay down on the lab table and prepared himself.
Seeing this, Dr. Stern sped up his work, preparing Banner's blood and other materials before commencing the procedure.
As the dark red blood was slowly propelled through the thin rubber tube, Banner's blood was gradually injected into Bronsky's body.
Then, a green gamma ray shone on Bronsky's face.
"Roar!"
