Sentinel

Chapter 102 Mutation
Butterscot Mansion, Sean's residence.

An anxious Reed sat on the sofa and took the coffee brought by Minty. In front of outsiders, this violent little loli still maintained a very well-behaved and cute image.

"I'm going to do my homework." The little Lolita had a soft voice, trotting back to the room in a dress and princess dress.

"Your cousin is really sensible. It's rare for a child of this age not to be noisy." Reed took a sip of coffee, and his inner anxiety gradually stabilized.

Sean laughed off the praise, and only those who have really seen Mindy's true nature will know how troublesome this seemingly cute little loli is.Almost every week he received bloody and tearful complaints from the dean, but the school chose to turn a blind eye with his generous education funding.

"I didn't expect you to be discharged from the hospital so soon." Sean looked at Reed who was running in a hurry, and he already knew the purpose of the other party's visit from the bottom of his heart.

Presumably at this time, Reed and his party had already discovered their anomaly. Being exposed to the energy storm in outer space and being attacked by the flow of high-energy particles did not affect them at all.

"Sean, uh, have you... just felt uncomfortable recently?" Reed asked hesitantly like a crappy doctor.

He was really embarrassed to open his mouth, remembering the promise he had sworn before, but now such an unexpected accident happened. Because of his own calculation error, the space station was destroyed by the energy storm, and his companion's body also had an abnormal reaction.

"No." Sean shook his head. "I asked the Red Queen to conduct a medical examination of the whole body. There is no excessive radiation in the blood, and the vital signs are all normal."

"Actually, I would like to wake up overnight and suddenly become a superhero with infinite strength..." He looked deeply into Reid's eyes, and smiled at the corner of his mouth.

Facing Sean's deep gaze, Reed couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. He thought of Ben who had turned into a stone man, and decided to speak frankly: "The energy storm in space completely changed the genes of me, Susan, Johnny, and Ben. Therefore, it has acquired unusual abilities, but this may also threaten our lives..."

"So you want to ask if I am like you?" Sean smiled and turned on the TV.

The TV news reported a rear-end car accident on the Brooklyn Bridge. A large truck out of control caused dozens of cars to rear-end. At the same time, an amazing explosion occurred, causing the fire trucks that arrived to almost fall into the river. This unprecedented car accident almost caused huge casualties of hundreds of people—if it wasn't for the help of the Fantastic Four!
"Congratulations, you have become another group of superheroes who have officially appeared in public after Tony Stark." Sean said jokingly in his eyes, "Now the whole New York knows your existence. You guys are called the Fantastic Four, cool title."

Seeing that Sean already knew everything, Reed couldn't help but bow his head in frustration. This was one of the few failure experiences in his life, and the last time was because Susan left him.

"It's just terrible!" Reed was full of trouble. Unlike Johnny, he thinks that having superpowers is a cool thing, especially seeing the huge changes in Ben, he feels guilty in his heart endlessly.

"The human body's genes are altered, which may lead to some unpredictable changes in the body, even life-threatening! Only Johnny would think this is worth showing off!"

Sean curled his lips. He didn't agree with Reed's opinion. This future Mister Fantastic is always full of hesitation before doing things. When he takes the first step, he will think about the next hundred steps in advance. Allowing will certainly reduce the chance of making mistakes and ensure the chance of success, but at the same time it will miss a lot of things.

Susan, for example, is an obvious example.Compared to Reid, even Victor Doom is much stronger than him. When he learned that he possessed extraordinary abilities, the first thing he thought of was how to make himself stronger, rather than rejecting this ability. God-given power.

If it weren't for being overwhelmed by power, overly arrogant and arrogant, and the tragic fate of being a villain, it might not be able to be won by the Fantastic Four in the end.

"You resist the changes in your body, Reed?" Sean's eyes flickered. "Have you thought about a solution? This is not some kind of incurable disease. With your wisdom, it should not be difficult to solve."

"I want to build a machine that uses a stream of high-energy particles to generate an energy storm, conduct a reversal experiment, and if successful, maybe return us to normal."

Reed is worthy of his name as a genius, and he thought of a way in a short time, but there is still hesitation between his brows, obviously this method is not perfect.

"It's a good idea, but it's also very risky. A slight calculation error may cause your symptoms to increase exponentially, and even life-threatening."

Sean actually saw the risks of this plan. The accident that Reid encountered was almost difficult to replicate, otherwise this would be a method to mass-produce superpowers.The exposure time to the energy storm, as well as the impact of various rays, can make a huge difference in the final result.

For example, the Fantastic Four, they are also in a similar environment, but they get completely different abilities, and even Ben's appearance has undergone earth-shaking changes, and his flesh and blood have turned into hard and heavy stones.

"Maybe I can help." Sean offered to propose that he is very interested in superpowers other than mutants, and it might be a good research topic.

"Your genetic structure has undergone mutations, which may hide the key to open the door to evolution. Reid, I think you should be calm, this is not a bad thing, you are not mutants, and you are discriminated against and rejected by people - New York The citizens think of you as stars!"

Hearing Xiao En's comfort, Reed breathed a sigh of relief. The depression and anxiety for many days made him suffer and suffer. On the one hand, it was the heavy blow of the failure of the experiment, and on the other hand, it was the guilt of hurting his friend. pain.

"You have to cheer up, at least Ben needs your help!"

Sending away Reed, whose eyes had recovered somewhat, Sean's eyes were deep. Perhaps a small calculation error could cause the energy storm to take the life of the experimenter, but for him who has Skynet, as long as he can control Small changes in time, and maintaining precise judgment, may not be impossible to replicate successfully.

"Hmph, what bad idea are you thinking again!"

Sean, who was thinking about how to benefit from it, was interrupted by Minty, and the little Loli crossed his arms, looking like a grown-up.

"I'm obviously thinking about how to help Dr. Richards." Sean coughed twice, with a sincere expression on his face.

"Tch, I don't believe you." Minty turned her head and said, "You said last time that a man of science and technology like him is best to be deceived."

Sean carried the little loli who knew too much. The former super killer girl had a tendency to evolve into a home girl. He bought a bunch of games and snacks with his pocket money. A kind and friendly ideological education.

"Games like "God of War" are too bloody, not suitable for children, confiscated! GTA5? Violent and vulgar! Let me put it away for you... Hey, there is also "Witcher", which is not suitable for children, I will keep it for you first, Wait until you grow up to play again! By the way, eat less snacks, I'll take this away!"

Sean wandered around Minty's room and conducted a carpet-like search. In the end, the result was rich, and the little girl was so angry that she barked her teeth and claws, wishing to take back her beloved collection.

"I'm doing this for your own good. When you're young, you should be more restrained. In the future, you'll eat less ice cream and coke, and run more to keep fit."

For Minty's resistance, Sean suppressed it with one hand. He walked away with a pile of booty, thinking that the task of educating and reforming violent loli is a long way to go...
