Marvel's Speedster

Soft music lingers in the entertainment room in a low voice, Ross dances slowly in the center of the hall with Maya in his arms, Otto and his wife pass by them, Qin and the professor sit by the window to play chess, Pepper, Ororo and others are indifferent Knowing what topics are being discussed when sitting around, Gwen receives academic tutoring from Dr. Connors alone in front of the bar.

The day's work is over, and At the moment is the time for leisure and relaxation. Most of the senior members of the laboratory are in the entertainment room to soothe their nerves.

At the end of the song, Ross took Maya by the hand, sent her back to her seat, and then walked to the round table where Pepper and others were.

"Girls, what are you discussing?" Ross asked casually.

Pepper gave him a weird smile, stretched out two snow-white fingers and gently pushed forward, pushing the tablet in front of him.

Ross glanced at it casually, and it was reporting some interesting things that happened in the western states recently.

"Skull smashed with a hammer! The shadow of a serial killer appeared in New Mexico, and tens of thousands of residents along Route 66 were threatened with death!"

Under such sensational titles, a small incident that happened not long ago is recorded. The cause is as everyone knows, a group of unknown persons who seem to have an official background are arresting a dangerous fugitive in a small town. It is rumored that this person is an Australian deserter, his hands are stained with the blood of innocent people, and he is especially good at beating others with a hammer My head is so...

This was originally an excuse that Colossus randomly made up during the arrest to deal with the curiosity of the locals, but after they made a big fuss in the hospital, they attracted the attention of several reporters. After being exaggerated by the boring media, this matter is not worth mentioning The trivial matter suddenly turned into a shocking news. It is rumored that the Albuquette regional government has begun to consider dispatching the National Guard to maintain order, and the police are also investigating the truth of the incident, but nothing has been found so far.

It is definitely impossible to find out that the noble Prince Thor has been packed into a suitcase by Pete and others and brought back to New York, and he will return to his hometown in Asgard in a short time. The New Mexico police can't even dream of finding the truth.

In fact, Ross doubts their enthusiasm will last long. More than 2,300 people go missing in the United States every day. Regardless of adults or children, any age group, any gender, any economic status, any class and any skin color will go missing. In the past 25 years, the number of missing people has increased by 6 times. , and this year officially surpassed the 900,000 mark. Under such a bad social reality, it is hard to imagine that the local government will be willing to invest precious financial budgets for a missing person of unknown nationality.

"Simple and crude." Looking away from the flat screen, he gave a rather low evaluation.

Definitely this is for Iceman and Colossus.

"Why would you send these children to perform missions alone? If they were placed in the East, they might even attract the attention of the FBI because of their recklessness." Pepper shook his head repeatedly at him.

Pepper knew that the watchmen under Ross were almost equivalent to his personal army, and they often went to perform some secret missions, but she didn't want to see Ross get into trouble because of such a trivial matter.

"They have to grow up, I believe that next time there will be no such low-level mistakes." Ross replied with a smile.

Gwen, who was sitting next to her, raised her head in dissatisfaction, holding up a pencil and yelling in dissatisfaction.

"Hey, don't mention such things in front of me." The director's daughter protested loudly. If the doctor was not explaining the difficult problems to her, she would jump on Ross and beat him hard now.

"In front of Gwen, you'd better pay attention." Dr. Connors also issued a tactful accusation. He and George are alumni and friends, and he must definitely take Gwen's position into consideration.

It's just the instinct of being a scientist that made him also very interested in Thor who was brought back.

"In my opinion, it is still necessary to pay attention to this alien. I have read the preliminary test report. His body density is three times that of ordinary humans, but his organs are basically not significantly different from ours. The gap between the two It is more reflected in the microscopic level that it is not easy to age, has no degenerative diseases, and has strong resilience...I think it is very necessary to study it."

"Can't our current technology do it?" Gwen asked with wide eyes. In her opinion, the cells of Sabretooth and Wolverine also have similar effects. If the strength is not enough, maybe some more need to be added. Other features, but it's doable anyway.

Ross smiled and pinched the tip of her slightly upturned nose.

"We definitely can do it, but it provides another way of thinking. As far as I know, our guests come from Asgard in Norse Mythology. The legend has reached our current technological level thousands of years ago, but they did not like We are dominated by economic activities and political activities, but retain more of the style of ancient society, which is really a very interesting idea."

"It sounds more like a retrogression of civilization, abandoning complex social relations, content with blurred social division of labor, without developed currency exchange and large-scale industries, and at the same time using force to maintain order in surrounding areas... This is really It’s really like the way of life of the ancient Nordic people, except that the body functions have been extremely strengthened.” Connors’ evaluation is not high, he thinks that Asgard may have fallen into the twilight years of civilization, and it is only relying on past accumulation to continue to maintain the status quo.

"Perhaps their greatest achievements are their bodies. No civilization is perfect, just like the once outstanding Mayan civilization that didn't even have the basic prototype of a wheel like lacquered wood." Maya thought deeply.

Except for the professor and Qin who are still concentrating on the confrontation on the chessboard, everyone else has joined in to explore the nature of alien civilization from various angles.

After listening for a while, Gwen felt more and more confused. The country that claimed to be God's Domain seemed to be shrouded in thick fog, and its outline was completely blurred.

"Then what is their technology like, and what can we get from them?"

She tugged at the hem of Ross's shirt and asked in a low voice.

"Do you know the concept of tacit knowledge?" Ross asked rhetorically.

"Tacit knowledge" is the definition in psychology, which refers to knowledge or skills that some people can use but do not know its principles. The most typical tacit knowledge is "language". Most people can't figure out all the grammatical rules in the language they speak in their lifetime, but this does not prevent people from using it proficiently.

Another example is the bat's ability to use its sonar to fly and hunt prey. This kind of skill is almost an incredible phenomenon in the eyes of human beings. Up to now, the radar system built by human beings with all their wisdom is not as good as the sonar system of bats in many aspects, but it is a very important thing for bats. This kind of "tacit knowledge" is an ability that has been endowed by nature in the long history of evolution but not known to its own consciousness. It is extremely exquisite and can be used effortlessly, but it has nothing to do with intelligence.

For Thor and his Asgard civilization, those so-called divine powers may be a kind of tacit knowledge, which they can effortlessly harness only by their instincts, so for Thor, this power is magic.

For the people on earth, the power of the Asgard people has become "explicit knowledge", which can only be understood with intelligence, so this kind of power is advanced scientific knowledge in the eyes of people on earth.

Maybe Thor can't even do tenth-grade math problems, but the scientific power he has mastered is enough to make even highly educated scholars have to worry about it. So here, Thor is the bat who can only use the sonar system to prey, but has no knowledge of sonar knowledge, and Ross is the scientist who can find important principles from bats.

"I'm going to meet this bat now, and I'll tell you the answer later." After explaining to his girlfriend, Ross smiled mysteriously, and left the laboratory alone.

Not long after, he met a despondent Colossus and his party at a nondescript home in New York's Bronx area.

At the moment they already knew that their actions had attracted the attention of the outside world, and Pete and Bobby were both worried that they would leave a bad impression on their boss.

Fortunately, Ross didn't intend to criticize them. Being too strict with this group of rookies was meaningless. It would only make them less and less afraid to accept mistakes, and instead lose the opportunity to grow.

He first looked at the prisoner. At the moment Thor was sleeping in the cell, with one side of his lips swollen and some bruises on both sides of his eyes.

"It seems that you guys beat him hard." Ross commented blankly.

Both Colossus and Iceman are embarrassed, and it sounds like they've turned sadistic.

"It's not like that, Boss." Bobby quickly stood up to defend himself. "He woke up again in the middle, shouted and said some strange words, the anesthetic has little effect on him, and according to our observation, the resistance is still gradually increasing, in order to avoid attracting outsiders, we had to beat him Faint, so that he will have a longer quiet time."

"So it is." Ross nodded slightly, then turned around and announced his decision.

"I already know the process of this operation. No matter how you say it, it is very good that you can complete the task independently when you go to an unfamiliar area for the first time. We will discuss the specific issues for the next time. When you go back tonight and write a report, it will be regarded as A homework assignment, and I'll see your summary tomorrow morning.

Pete and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

After dismissing the young man, Ross quietly watched the prisoners inside through a layer of glass.

The blood samples have been collected, and some cells have been collected from the body surface, but more in-depth research cannot be carried out at present. Ross does not want to wake up the sleeping Odin prematurely. After all, the father just wants to give the arrogant heir a profound Lesson, but will never let him fall into danger.

"The time is still close, we have to be patient."

Ross murmured to himself, and suddenly turned his head to look across the room.

There was obviously nothing there, but Ross was keenly aware that some kind of obscure fluctuation was approaching quietly.

The next moment, his figure slowly disappeared, and the wind rang in the room. .
