If it were anyone else, getting Sacks’s research data would be very hard.
But with CEO Sacks in hand, Luke only needed to deal with the guards.
20 minutes later, Phil arrived in a hurry with a large group of people and sealed off a research building in Queens.
Without looking at the man who was tied up and shouting, “This is a fake Batman,” Phil went straight to Luke.
Passing the information he had copied to Phil, Luke said, “The database has a self-destruct setting, so I made a copy for you first.”
Phil took it and gave it to his subordinate. “Where’s that Shredder?”
Luke shook his head. “I don’t know. Have your men check it out. Sacks is just his pawn. The residence he knows about is empty.”
Phil nodded.
In fact, Luke didn’t need to say more. Phil had already begun searching after receiving the information. Now, he was just confirming if there were any new leads as SHIELD had yet to find Shredder.
Luke thought for a moment, then said, “You should pay attention to those test subjects. After they came out, they all went into the sewers to hide their tracks. According to the information, about a hundred of them ran off.”
These test subjects had three times the physique of a human. If their hearts, heads, and blood vessels were injured, they wouldn’t die immediately. Their combat ability wasn’t bad.
Microchips were used to control them, but they couldn’t be controlled over long distances. Also, they would only obey three people — Sacks, Karai, and Shredder.
That was why Luke wasn’t too worried.
Worse came to worse, he could just make Sacks or Karai order the test subjects to stop.
Suddenly, Luke’s expression changed and he said, “Tell your men to be careful. Those test subjects are coming out of the sewers under this building.”
As soon as he said that, the SHIELD agents who were locking down the place issued a warning. “Sir, suspected test subjects are coming out of the bathroom in the southwest corner of the building. There are a lot of them, no, there’s a huge number of them! Retreat!”
Luke glanced at Phil. “Don’t tell me you want to catch them alive?”
Phil smiled calmly and didn’t panic. He summoned two of his subordinates to drag Sacks away. “As long as this one’s alive, you can kill those test subjects.”
Luke was stunned. He had planned to use the Sacks to deal with these test subjects.
But on second thought, he dismissed the idea.
It didn’t seem like it would take much more effort to directly take care of these test subjects than to use Sacks to issue an order.
“Tell your men to be careful. Ordinary firearms won’t do much damage to them; they won’t die even if their heads are gone.”
The slight smile on Phil’s face didn’t change as he touched his earpiece. “The targets may be immortal to some extent. Follow the plan.”
Almost all the agents around him put their pistols and rifles away and took out short and thick shotguns.
Scanning them with his lenses, Luke nodded. “It seems you’ve updated your equipment too.”
Phil shrugged helplessly. “There are more and more monsters who aren’t afraid of death. We can’t use ordinary guns, right?”
Luke asked, “Aren’t you going to make some high-energy weapons?”
After a brief silence, Phil ventured in a low voice, “Then why don’t you provide us a batch of arc reactors?”
Luke turned away decisively and pretended not to hear him.
What a joke. The arc reactor was the core technology for his and Tony’s suits.
With this thing, the Hydra that was in SHIELD would be able to make a bunch of subpar Iron Man suits.
As long as it could fly and stand up against most ordinary weapons, it was practically invincible.
At most, they would avoid Iron Man and Batman; the two of them had no time to scour the world looking for all of them.
As Luke and Phil chatted, a group of lean and muscular test subjects rushed out.
Thankfully, Luke had taken down the security guards before he came, and Phil and the others had taken them away as potential witnesses.
Otherwise, these crazy test subjects would probably kill all the security guards.
This wasn’t speculation on Luke’s part. He saw one of the security guards they had missed bitten to death; the test subjects even stopped and continued to gnaw on the security guard.
Frowning, Luke grabbed Phil and retreated to the entrance of the building that was easiest to defend. “Something’s wrong with them. Tell your men to be careful and not to engage.”
Phil immediately repeated Luke’s words. At the same time, he crossed his arms and activated his mechanical gloves.
Without this defensive weapon, Phil wouldn’t be so calm.
Luke sighed and gave him a pair of grayish-black gloves. “Put these on.”
Stumped, Phil did as he was told.
The gloves looked unremarkable, but they were very loose.
As soon as he put them on, he felt his arms itch. He lowered his head, only to see the grayish-black gloves stretch from his hands up to his upper arms, as if they were alive.
“This…” Phil was shocked.
Luke said, “It can only cover your upper half at most, and you can choose whether to activate the facial protection or not.”
With a thought, Phil’s face was also covered in black. It extended downward with a slightly itchy sensation, then stopped when it reached his waist.
He blinked. “What’s this?”
Luke said, “They’re triple defense nanogloves, but they’re mainly for protection against poisonous gas for now. You should cover your face for this fight. These test subjects look different from before. It’s like they have rabies.”
Phil suppressed his shock and quickly put on his mechanical gloves. He immediately instructed his subordinates to take up a defensive position.
Even without Luke saying anything, Phil could also tell that something wasn’t right.
Those test subjects weren’t three times as strong as ordinary people, but almost five times as strong.
At the same time, they were moving frenziedly and were completely out of control.
If these things were living weapons, they had to have been made by people who hated humans.
That was because apart from destroying all the creatures in front of them, the test subjects had no other thoughts.
It was a good thing that after the chaos with the undead last time, the SHIELD agents were now equipped with things like restraining nets and stun guns.
With a series of dull thumps, black net after black net flew out to wrap around the test subjects charging at the agents.
They howled and struggled, but couldn’t break free.
Actually, even if the strength of these test subjects was doubled, they were more likely to just cut themselves into pieces in the metal nets. After all, strength was different from durability.
The most outstanding thing about humans was their intelligence and how they used tools. In an age of science, extraordinary physical qualities alone weren’t enough.
Only those with brains could become super soldiers; those without were easy to take down with net guns.
That was also why Sacks wanted the mutagen: to produce test subjects with normal mental faculties.
