Cthulhu

Al takes Peter to the Stark Industries warehouse.

Peter was also accompanied by Potts. Al originally didn't want her to follow him, but it was even more inappropriate to leave Potts in the rental house.

First, he is worried that Stan will find Potts' location and kidnap her again.

Second, Al was not worried about leaving Potts alone.

Although most of Al's experimental data are in the thinking laboratory, a small part of the transformation results still remain there.

If Potts accidentally touched something and mutated her, Stark would tear himself apart.

The most important thing is that if Potts dies, the 1000 million will be gone.

"Peter, protect Miss Potts." Al told Peter, and then took out a potion, a mind-stabilizing agent.

"1000 million... No, Ms. Potts, if you drink this potion and see something you shouldn't see later, this will save your life."

1000 million

You definitely wanted to call me 1000 million just now. In your eyes, I am 1000 million. Potts opened his eyes angrily.

He glared at Al angrily.

Some curious people took the potion. The dark green potion was contained in a test tube. There was no sign on it, and the cap was only plugged with a cork.

She shook it. The liquid was very viscous and felt like liquid jelly.

"Don't look at it, 1000 million, this is what I did. This will slow down your thinking speed, but it will protect your package from going crazy due to the impact of weird information."

"My name is Potts, not 1000 million." Potts curled his lips.

How can the name Potts be called 1000 million cute? Al sighed with regret.

Seeing Potts drinking the potion, Al summoned a huge black shadow and hid himself inside.

He found that this kind of black shadow biological armor was surprisingly useful.

The huge black shadow can not only control people's thinking and actions, it itself has strong power and defense, but its speed is relatively weak.

But this does not hinder the power of the black shadow.

It's like...an ultra-low-end version of EVA Unit [-].

As for the higher version, Al is already studying it, using Dagon's cells, hound cells, and ghoul cells, as well as the culture tank obtained from the Is laboratory, to cultivate a stronger biological warfare agent. body.

The three of them walked quietly towards Warehouse No. 3.

Peter took the lead, Potts in the middle, and Al in the back.

Peter, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped. His sensitive spider senses had already detected the approach of a patrol.

Potts quickly used his authority to open the door, and the three of them ducked in.

A neat line of guards passed in front of the room where they were hiding.

No abnormalities were found at all.

This is a dark job. Although Ms. Potts, Stark's secretary, is standing next to her, Al and Peter are trespassing illegally.

It will be very troublesome after being discovered.

It's not time to be exposed yet. According to Potts, Stan has recently diverted a lot of funds and secretly pulled several trucks of goods to this warehouse.

She wondered if Stan had prepared something to deal with Stark.

I want to destroy these things in advance.

The three of them approached the warehouse carefully. With Peter's sensitive spider sense, the sentries, patrols, and cameras were all perfectly avoided by the three of them.

Several people quietly entered the warehouse.

As soon as they entered, the three of them gasped.

The contents of the warehouse almost made Potts vomit out. This warehouse was not at all the secret weapon she had imagined.

Instead, there were piles of corpses, piles of black bodies, neatly dismembered.

Yes, neat.

That was the only word that came to Potts' mind.

A dozen heads were cut off and placed neatly in the center of the warehouse.

A dozen left hands are neatly placed on the upper left corner of the head, and the right hand is on the upper right corner.

The same goes for the left foot and right foot.

The body in the middle was missing.

Scary and spooky.

Sacrifice

Al noticed these things the first time he saw them.

These are processed offerings.

Apart from being arranged neatly, no blood flowed out from the broken parts.

According to normal logic, this kind of stump limb should dry up and shrink due to the lack of blood.

But these arms and thighs lack a strange fullness and full elasticity.

There was no rigor mortis or grouper, it was as if it had just been cut off.

These are processed offerings.

The person who handled the sacrifices had a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder. After dismembering the corpse, his hands and feet had to be arranged neatly.

As for the missing torso, it must have been used as a sacrifice.

Seeing this in Stark's warehouse, Al was a little unbelievable.

No reason

This kind of thing will appear here.

This is New York, how could such a bloody sacrifice appear here.

Al stepped forward to examine it carefully, picked up a head, and observed it carefully.

Potts looked at Al, who was holding his head like a basketball.

He immediately took two steps back and muttered, "Al, aren't you scared?"

"Be afraid, these are just dead people." Al's tone was as simple as talking about a book in the library.

But Potts was even more scared, not just of the bodies, but of Al.

She never expected that Al would be so calm when facing a corpse.

Peter also had a numb scalp, and there were no anatomy classes in school.

The air conditioner is on in the warehouse, and the low temperature helps preserve the corpse, but inevitably, a trace of corpse odor still comes out.

No matter how much Peter and Potts held their breath, it still penetrated their noses.

Stung by the cold air again, Peter sneezed, shook his head and said, "Al, how about we go outside and wait for you?"

"Yes, yes, let's go outside and wait for you." Potts said hurriedly after hearing Peter's words.

"You guys just wait for me outside, I've discovered something."

Ignoring the two people's departure, Al really made some discoveries.

These people are all black and have dry skin on their bodies. They must have lived in an environment lacking water all year round.

It should be someone from Afghanistan.

Moreover, even though these people were dead, their eyes were relatively normal and did not have characteristics such as wide open eyes or bloodshot eyes. This means that these people accepted death calmly.

There is not much fear of death.

It’s very rare to train one person like this. There are more than a dozen here.

There is only one way to raise such a person.

Religious Belief

This is a commonly used method within terrorist organizations to instill spiritual confinement in people. Faith is used to firmly bind people to the organization. No matter what the organization does, it can be explained by faith.

Al suddenly had a guess, and the first layer of his virtual brain was unlocked. He found that his memory had become a little unusual, and he could clearly remember things long ago.

He remembered that in the original plot, Stan killed the group of terrorists who kidnapped Stark in order to create the Iron Overlord.

But now that I think about it, there are loopholes everywhere.

How could a group of terrorists who could obtain nuclear materials and normal-temperature superconducting metals be easily exploited by a group of businessmen?

There's something weird about everything here.
