In the underground laboratory, piles of videos, photos, and documents were like dazzling stars, shrouding the heads of Tony and Steve. The light shone on their faces. They raised their heads and looked at it all with frowns. Wrinkling, his eyes were full of anger and disbelief.

"Sir, the encryption is complete."

Jarvis's unique mechanical sound echoed in his ears.

"Integrate and classify these things and save them, play the video, analyze the characteristics of the characters in the video, and investigate which organization the laboratory belongs to."

Tony Stark opened his hand and grabbed all the documents, crumpled them all into a ball, and threw them into a box. Soon the dazzling video and picture files were all classified in an orderly manner, and a prominent video began to play. .

The video content, the light is a bit dark, there is a large jar in the picture, and a person is soaked in green liquid. After injecting some kind of energy, the person suffered a violent shock, and terrifying electric currents tore through his body. Soon layers of thick armor grew on his body, and his whole body began to change, becoming like a pangolin.

"Genetic modification experiment?"

Steve had a sullen face, and this was the first thing that came to mind. He had also participated in similar experimental projects, but they were voluntary, legal and compliant projects, and only carried out with full confidence, and the video It looks completely different inside.

In the video, the person in the jar directly smashed through the jar after mutating, and tried to escape like crazy. He tried to break through the solid iron door, but was stunned by guards in black who surrounded him from all sides and used stun guns. Then a collar was put around his neck!

After putting on the collar, the armor on the man disappeared and he returned to his original appearance.

"It's not like that."

When Tony was about to continue speaking, the video screen switched again. The scene was still in the laboratory, but the people inside completely made him fall into deep anger and silence this time, and his pupils suddenly shrunk.

"This is."

Steve's pupils also shrank suddenly, his fists clenched, and his breathing became rapid.

Because, in the video footage they saw, it was a little girl who was being subjected to some kind of special punishment. Weird sound waves were used to stimulate her to cry. The little girl looked to be only three or four years old, and she was violently Under the impact of the shock, the girl's spirit gradually collapsed, her eyes glowed with white light, her open mouth and ears also glowed with white light, and the bright light gradually occupied the entire lens!

When the white light dissipated, the girl had fainted on the ground. In her coma, her body was still shaking subconsciously, and her wrinkled face was full of fear. The guards around her didn't seem to see it, so they picked her up and held her there. He put on a special collar and put her in a cage.

Then, a line of text appeared at the end of the video, the dark side of Maine, the inhumane devil's cave.

"Damn it! These guys are like demons, and this hell is actually in our own country!"

After Steve saw the text clearly, he couldn't help but cursed angrily and smashed the table.

He finally understood why the mysterious man suddenly said those words, and why he was so sure that everything he had built would be completely destroyed after seeing the video!

He was mentally prepared. After all, he was also a soldier who had experienced hundreds of battles and had experienced fighting many evils, but he had never been so angry as he was now.

"I thought the dirty streets, poor facilities, and daily evil in Queens and Brooklyn were enough to make me uneasy. But I was so naive. I didn't really understand the nature of the world! That guy You’re right, the world is not a binary of black and white, but a mixture of grays, a complex color that I can’t fully understand!”

Steve frowned, his tone full of anger and unwillingness, as well as a lot of self-blame.

Tony Stark is a man with a sharp tongue and a lot of words, but at this time, he is more silent than anyone else.

After a long while, he took a deep breath and asked, "Who gave you the hard drive?"

"A strange guy, I don't know him, but he knows me well."

Steve recalled his time at the port, "He saw me as a guardian and expected me to do what I had to do."

"Sir, based on my database review and the information I learned after entering the S.H.I.E.L.D. database, I think the people in the experiment screen should be mutants."

Jarvis's voice sounded.

"Mutant?"

Steve was a little confused. As an old man who had been sleeping for decades, he didn't know much about mutants.

"It sounds like SHIELD hasn't taught you a lesson. The concept of mutants was proposed by Charles Xavier. They are people who possess the X gene in their bodies and develop mutant abilities as their bodies develop. So, we Call them mutants, these people have extraordinary abilities.”

As Tony spoke, he stretched out his hand and drew out a piece of data, with the entry for mutants on it.

As he spoke, he looked at the information in the laboratory and said in a more serious tone, "However, they are essentially no different from humans. Mutants are first and foremost ordinary humans. They only show mutant abilities as their bodies develop."

Tony does not believe that humans and mutants are two different species. As a top student at MIT, he has known about the existence of mutants a long time ago and believes that mutants are just people with the same feelings and ideals.

He said: "Mutants are just humans who carry the X gene and produce superpowers. They are indeed dangerous, but not all mutants are dangerous."

"No one has ever said this to me."

Steve was a little surprised.

"I'm also surprised that there are no new mutants born in the latest official statistics."

As soon as Tony finished speaking, Jarvis immediately gave an analysis:

"According to official news, the number of mutants is currently in sharp decline. According to official statistics, no more mutants were born more than ten years ago. However, according to the analysis of video footage, this statement is obviously not in line with official statistics."

Jarvis said, while taking a series of logs and laboratory information on the holographic projection, "According to the contents recorded on the hard drive, it can be known that the youngest mutant in the laboratory is only three years old."

"Obviously, either this information is fake, or some people in the officialdom are trying to deceive everyone."

Tony's deep eyes revealed his thoughts, "They want to use mutants to get more benefits."

Steve also fell into a brief silence. In just a few minutes, he was greatly shocked. The modern outlook he had just established was now completely shattered. Peace, freedom, and morality. In the video, He only saw fear and abyss, a group of demons who despised living life and only had interests in their eyes.

He took a deep breath and sat down on the chair tiredly, "Tony, what should we do, I'm a little at a loss."

Tony looked serious, holding his chin with one hand, thinking for a moment, and said: "We need to thoroughly investigate the contents of the hard drive first to confirm whether the information in it is authentic and credible. If they are indeed authentic, then we must find other laboratories To prove this information, to stop some people’s mouths so that they can’t quibble.”
