American Comics: Beginning with Luke the Maker

Chapter 145 Solution, plan, come to an end
Highland Industrial Park.

Luke's lab.

"Don't be nervous. It's not an evil experiment. It's just a physical examination for you and some information that you must keep in mind by the way. You don't have to worry about what I will do to you. You are now Director Fury's focus." Lu Ke walked out of the portal opened by the Mage King, and said to Frank who was a little taciturn behind.

"I'm not nervous, I'm just remembering how I felt when I lost control." Frank sighed, and glanced at the space surrounded by various unidentified instruments, his clear eyes were full of complexities.

"Oh? When you lost control, did you still have a little consciousness? Can you tell me how you felt at that time? Maybe this will help me understand your state at that time. You know, as long as there is nothing to hide, there is no Keep it, so that I can find the safest and most effective solution for you based on your state and my understanding of this energy." Luke said frankly.

"I will." Frank nodded.

"Is his state troublesome?" Steve, who walked in afterward, asked with some concern.He was afraid that Frank would not be able to control this power. He was here today. If he hadn't been there and hadn't obtained the first and earliest Ring of Discernment from Heberen in advance, today's story would probably be different. ending.Steve even felt that Frank should not be allowed to wear the ring until he could not control the power.

"It depends on the follow-up inspection." Luke replied.

"If, I mean, if the result of the inspection is not satisfactory, can this ring be taken back?" Steve glanced at the ring still on Frank's hand, and smiled apologetically at him, Still open the mouth.

"Of course it can be recycled, but you have to understand that a ring, even if it is a mass-produced version, will bind the wearer's DNA. And the ring of discrimination, which is the customized version of the two of you, will bind more deeply .In words that you can understand, you can treat it as a living thing, and you are equivalent to its inseparable master. Unless the master dies, under normal circumstances, it will not choose a second wearer to become its new Master." Luke told Queen Bai to start the instrument and made corresponding preparations, while explaining to Steve who asked the question, and the few people beside him who were also listening attentively.

Hearing this, Steve and Frank touched the soul ring on their right hand with the fingers of the other hand in unison.What Steve said to Luke was more profound than Frank's. After all, he had worn the ring longer and more familiarly than Frank.

Even in his opinion, Luke's spiritual ring is more like an alternative upgraded equipment version of the super soldier potion.For example, can they amplify certain emotions and desires in people's hearts?But the destructive power and power of the ring are much stronger than that of super soldiers.

"I believe Luke, you must have a solution, don't you?" Nick asked somewhat eagerly.He doesn't need to be anxious about other things, but he can't be anxious about Frank and the ring!He took on such a large debt in order to recruit thugs for S.H.I.E.L.D., or his superteam.

If there is no way to solve it, it is obvious that Frank wearing the ring is a time bomb that does not know when it will explode.At that time, Nick will not only not be able to get what he wanted and get the combat power bonus that Frank joined, but he will have to spend some energy on the opponent.

As for giving up Frank's combat power?Nick never thought about it, because if he did, a bill that gave him a heart-wrenching throbbing would blow his mind away.The sunk cost is really too high, so high that even he dare not make the decision to give up easily when things are not too bad and irreversible, and there is still room for maneuver.

"I can give you an accurate answer after the test and understand all the situation. Or simply say a reasonable solution. But I don't work for nothing." Luke led Frank towards the lab. A bed-type instrument walked over and said.

"I need to go back to perform my duties. You know, for your trip, I hired another mage to take my place." The mage king didn't intend to join in, although the supreme mage already had a relationship with the real world. The intention of contact and cooperation, but at present, it is only for Hyperion.Many mages have not been able to completely change their inner concepts in a short period of time. They still go their own way as usual, just obeying the duties of mages, and don't care about things in the real world.

Perhaps only the mage Strange after Ancient One would pay more attention to the real world and intervene more.

"Of course, say hello to Master Ancient One for me. Well, and tell Strange not to keep calling me harassing calls in the middle of the night. His current situation is not my fault at all. I should have almost done that The mobile phone number of the mage in the area has been completely blocked. I hope you can protect your communicator, and if he gets it, I will block you too." Luke waved to the mage king with an embarrassed look on his face, saying goodbye road.

"I'll tell Mage Strange." The Mage King hastily opened any door, quickly entered, and then closed the door immediately.

"Mage Strange? It seems that our doctors have made a good transformation. They have all been upgraded from apprentices to mages." Luke noticed the mage king's address to Strange, which means that the other party has probably left his apprentice now The status has grown.

"Are they always coming and going like this?" Nick asked with a frown as he watched the place where the Mage King disappeared.

"Of course, this is their specialty." Luke said, leading Frank to the bed-like instrument, and motioned him to lie down with his eyes and movements.Frank didn't hesitate, he followed Luke's instructions and lay down.

The surface of the bed-like instrument is composed of small cylinders. The top of the cylinder is not sharp like a needle point, nor is it flat, but a slightly rounded spherical shape.After Frank sat on it, these cylinders acted like mechanical force, with one part sunken and the other part propped up, wrapping half of Frank's body snugly.

"Don't be nervous, the test doesn't take long, and we'll talk about other things when we're done," Luke said.The whole process was not as embarrassing as Frank imagined, and it could be said that it was simple and easy, which made him feel relaxed.This gave him a little more trust in Luke, but also a little more goodwill.

"Wouldn't that mean if they wanted to, they could go where they wanted? Take whatever they wanted?" Nick worried.I am worried about the elusive portal of the mage.

Luke just glanced at him and knew that one of Nick's specialties was kicking up again. "Do you think the mage will take away your [treasures] without your knowledge? Don't worry, the mage won't stare at your things."

"What about you? This is your important laboratory, right? If you were me and you faced a group of people who could come into your house and take away something at any time, what would you think?" Nick asked back.

"I'm sorry, there are not many valuable things in this laboratory. Of course, I don't mean these instruments. They are still very sophisticated and expensive, but whether they are lost or not is not a big pressure for me now. Hai Bolun's technical reserves and all data are under the control of the White Queen. I don't think those mages can crack the encryption and understand those boring things. In addition, I don't have time to explain too much to you. To be honest, I understand your worry, but it's unnecessary. Anyway, you can't help the other party come in and out of your house now, can you?" Luke was a little impatient.

It is true that the current laboratory is indeed built by him, and he has spent a lot of money to renovate and upgrade it little by little in the past few years, but men always like the new and dislike the old, and now he is full of planning for his own laboratory in the dark city. Right now, this is going to be excessive in his heart, how can he regard it as the root of life like before?
Even if there really are some mysterious intruders, are the laboratory's monitoring and defense measures just a display?
"I don't intend to disturb you, but the light on that instrument is green. Is this a test?" Steve, who was on the side, stretched out a finger and pointed to the green light on the instrument on the bed, asking.

"White Queen." Luke pulled in the air casually, and a virtual screen appeared in front of him. The White Queen put all the body data obtained from the detection on the virtual screen for Luke to watch.

"How is it?" Looking at the densely packed data that looked like a bible, Nick asked nervously.This may be related to his huge new currency debt.

"Except for some hidden injuries, the whole body is healthy." Luke said.

"That is to say..."

"That is to say, the erosion of the mind ring did not bring serious burden and damage to his body. This is gratifying. But follow-up still needs to do some spiritual tests. This time may be longer, and some more A professional psychiatrist will conduct the assessment. Of course, you can also appoint trusted personnel to participate. After all, the probability of agents having psychological problems is quite high, and you should have a whole set of familiar experiences." Luke took what Nick had left to say.

"Can I get up?" Frank, who was still lying on the instrument, turned his head and looked at Luke next to the instrument and asked.

"Yes. Can you tell me about your state of consciousness when you lost control? You don't need to go into too much detail, even a vague feeling is fine." Luke nodded, and turned the topic to the direction he was interested in.

"Feeling? Terrible!" The cylinder of the bed-type detection instrument sensitively judged what Frank wanted to do based on his movements, and pushed and supported him to sit up almost seamlessly. The whole process did not require him to spend half a minute. force.

"I feel that my heart is full of resentment. The flames of anger and vengeance broke through my spiritual defense immediately, my will was swallowed, my reason was crushed, my calmness completely collapsed, and my consciousness became chaotic. I feel full of surging power, I want to release it, I want to fight, I want to revenge, I want to destroy. My consciousness is only these pure and strong emotions at the time. And the stronger these emotions, The faster the strength in my body grows." Frank looked at the ring on his right index finger that had become very plain at the moment with complicated eyes, and whispered his feelings at that time.

"That is to say, you know what you have done? Still maintain a certain level of consciousness?" Nick's eyes flickered.

"No, I was like a beast at the time. There was no such thing as being awake at all. I could only vaguely feel what I was doing. I was powerless to fight against that force, and I was powerless to stop it." Frank shook his head.

"Because this is the deepest emotional power in your heart. The spiritual ring just induces it to manifest, and then resonates with the power in the ring." Luke said.

"Can it be controlled? Just like the captain? Or let the captain introduce to him the skills and experience of how to control the ring?" Nick said, turning his gaze to Captain America.

Steve, who was pointed out by Nick, shrugged: "If I can, I will help as much as I can, but his situation is obviously different from mine. I think it is better to listen to Luke's opinion."

"The captain has a positive emotion, which does not affect his thinking and reason too much. But Mr. Frank is different. His negative emotion is too strong, and it is magnified by the ring of the soul. To be honest, apart from Captain Rogers, you are the first Two people who can resonate with a certain type of emotion so strongly, you match it so well that I am a little surprised." Luke's eyes were filled with admiration.

"Is this a good thing or a bad thing?" Nick was a little confused by Luke's words.

"It's mixed. The emotions represented by the red of anger are the most violent and hard to control in the new energy, but at the same time, they are also the most destructive and lethal. Frank, who has a very high degree of matching, will have a strong The combat effectiveness; but the flaw is the same, this energy is dangerous, difficult to control, it is easy to make the wearer lose himself in the battle, and become a puppet who only knows how to fight and hunt." Luke commented.

"The solution? You promised me." Nick stared at Luke, waiting for his answer.

"The ideal solution is to let him gradually become familiar with it, to fight against it, and to control that power. But this road is difficult, and I don't think he can succeed."

Under Nick's changing face, Luke continued calmly: "So my opinion is that if you want the kind of quick-result, temporary solution but not the root cause, it is the blue crystal of tranquility. Wearing the blue crystal of tranquility, It can fill his heart with tranquility and double his sanity. It can also effectively suppress the influence and erosion of the spirit caused by the red ring of anger. Simply put, it can keep him calm in battle."

"What about the disadvantages? There should be disadvantages to this method, right?" Nick and Frank looked at each other and asked.

"The disadvantage is that when the Serenity Blue Crystal is exhausted, he must stop using the power of the red ring. Moreover, the power of the red ring will be weakened and affected to a certain extent. It is impossible to climb up, obtain, and strengthen without limit like before." Luke detailed the shortcomings.

"Now, it's time for the last question." Nick suppressed the familiar feeling of uneasiness in his heart, and asked what he was most unwilling to ask at this moment: "How much is the blue crystal of tranquility?"

Frank looked at his old friend who had a gloomy face and forced a smile, feeling puzzled.He knew that his old friend had withheld funds to build a safe house.In other words, the person in front of him is a rich man!However, what would be the price that would make him feel heartbroken?
If Nick could hear Frank's question right now, he could roll his eyes.He was really overwhelmed by the part of asking Luke for the price, and he was already mentally prepared to be slashed again.But looking at Luke's chain, the only thing he expects is that the remaining properties of S.H.I.E.L.D. can repay Luke's debts before he sells them all.

Not to make a mess for the successor, this is the last stubbornness in Nick's heart now!

"I have some gang money, Nick should be able to launder it." Frank said kindly.

"Old man, you can't give what Luke wants." Nick was very touched by the helping hand extended by his old friend, so he silently increased the repayment ratio borne by the other party. One mind is not it?Morality, this thing is too extravagant for him.Nick sighed inwardly.

"Don't tell me I'm like a man-eating devil. Our transactions are all what you want, and I didn't force you to buy my products, did I?" Luke waved his hands leisurely. "I can give you other payment methods."

"I'll pay." Nick raised his hand.

"I mean, it can be converted into the new currency in other ways." Luke turned his head and glanced at Nick.

"I choose to give the money!" Nick repeated with a firm expression when he met Luke's gaze.

"You have no money," Luke pointed out.

"I can take out a loan! The interest rate can be higher!" Nick became more determined.

"Am I like a scourge?" Luke was confused by Nick's sudden firmness, he really wanted to give a step.After all, if the trick continues, Nick's S.H.I.E.L.D. will be changed to Heboren just around the corner.He really wanted to relax.

"It's settled like this, just give me the price when the time comes." Nick said, not wanting to hear what Luke had to say at all, pulled Frank and the captain together, and walked out of the laboratory door familiarly go.While walking, he called his subordinate Hill and asked her to arrange transportation to pick them up.

Nick is terrified of staying any longer and the bills are going to go up again!What's more, he still needs to have a good discussion with his old buddy about the debt issue between the two parties.
