Malloy's eyebrows were immediately knotted, and Rhea knew what he was thinking at a glance.

They were probably speculating about Professor X's intentions. Who knew what he was going to do when he checked Rhea's body.Because Rhea herself thought so too.

You have to be a little defensive when you are in someone else's territory.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm just worried about Rhea's injury." Professor X said in a gentle voice.

Malloy emphasized: "She's fine!"

"I don't mean to doubt, but if you use some abilities on Rhea, you should also check their effects on ordinary people."

The smile on Professor X's face remained unchanged, and he didn't know if he "saw" Rhea's suspicion.But with Malloy around, he wouldn't take the liberty to peek into their hearts.

Before Malloy said no, Rhea said, "Thanks, I'll think about it."

"Rhea!" Malloy stared at her, his expression changing between worry and anxiety, and Rhea took off her hat and smiled at him.

"Let's go to the laboratory first." She soothed.

And Rhea is indeed a little curious, with the X gene as the driving force for production, what kind of style will the mutant technology have.

There are so many students of Professor X here.

Rhea intuitively felt that he would not make trouble here.

Scott turned his head directly. He didn't seem to like the combination of Rhea and Malloy at all. He pushed Professor X's wheelchair and walked out.

Leaving the study room and going deeper, the architectural style has gradually changed from exquisite European style to sci-fi futuristic mechanical style, white marble, silver-gray metal painted walls, leading to a sensor door at the end.

The blue X-ray shot out, and after scanning Professor X's face, the door slowly opened, revealing the fully equipped laboratory inside.

There was already a person waiting there wearing a white coat. He seemed to be extraordinarily strong, holding up the white coat.

When he got closer, Rhea saw that it was a person covered with blue hair. No, his own shape was more similar to an evolved blue-haired beast than a human being.

But the pair of golden animal eyes shining with wisdom behind the glasses showed that he was actually human.

"Professor, Scott." He greeted the visitor.

Rhea tried her best to control her eyes to slide over the other person, not to stay too long, so as not to make herself appear offensive.Compared with Malloy's astonishment, she was indeed a little unusually calm.

Even made the "monster" big man smile: "Among all the people who saw my form for the first time

Here, you are at your best. "

"Hi, Rhea. You can call me Hank. You can also call me 'The Beast' if you like."

Another Hank.

This is no surprise, Hank is not an uncommon name.But falling on a mutant in this form is impressive enough.

Hank the Beast stretched out a broad hand to Rhea, with thick blue hair on the back of the hand and a thick palm.

Malloy quickly raised his hand and shook it for Rhea.

The blue beast that called itself Hank was stunned for a second, and strangely enough, you could see his injuries even on that furry face.

Rhea suddenly felt that she was a bad person.

She also reached out and shook Hank's other hand.

The pads were softer than she had imagined, and the long hair was not irritating.This makes this strong, frighteningly strong blue monster look a little cute.

Hank reacted.

He let go of his hand and said a little shyly, "The professor mentioned you, but it's still surprising to actually see you. I mean, we usually see you on the screen before, not, like this Face to face."

It seems that mutants also watch movies, and even watch gossip news.

Malloy glanced sideways, feeling a little like looking at a fan.Driven by his thoughts, "Recovery Agent Package No. 01" floated in front of Hank, interrupting his conversation with Rhea.

Hank regained his senses and immediately grabbed the test tube.

"This is the Essex test sample that the professor said, let me take a look." Hank's tone became normal, his huge body did not affect his operation of those delicate instruments, and he skillfully took a little sample with a dropper Observe under a microscope.

He commented: "Although your preservation is not good enough, the cellular components are still very active."

"Hank, please take a look at the dangers of this tube of reagents." Professor X coughed, glanced at Rhea, and continued: "Essex gave it to Rhea under the banner of speeding up the recovery, there should be no So easy."

"Okay, I'll put it into the detector, and the test result report will come out in a while."

Rhea smiled.

She could hear Professor X's warning, Rhea already knew the "danger" of these things, and now she just wanted to confirm more information...

Rhea looked around and saw some obvious wearable equipment, she muttered: "You have to wear equipment too."

Scott who followed couldn't help mocking: "Not every mutant can escape from bullets."

He seemed to mean something.

but

The words hit a nerve, and Malloy glared at Scott.

Rhea changed the subject: "Then it's a fluke for me, an ordinary person, to survive the last incident. Is there anything I can use, Charles?"

This is what they said before.

Professor X nodded: "There are some that you can use, but you need to do some checks for you first."

Hank looked up from the microscope. He temporarily put down the Essex "recovery potion" and walked to another table to pick up a few things.

He put them one by one in front of Rhea.

The first one is a flesh-colored vest. Rhea felt that the material was thin and smooth, but she couldn't tell what it was, and there was a slight hissing sound when she pressed it.

Hank explained: "You can wear this underneath and it won't interfere with your movement or show through, and you can even wear it under an evening gown, it fits snugly."

Rhea was very interested: "Will that show my figure?"

"Ah?" Noticing the difference in the vision of several people, Hank quickly added: "Well... it still needs to be modified according to your body data. The bulletproof function is good! Of course, it only includes the place it covers."

"And this." Hank handed over a long belt worn on his waist and abdomen, "Press the button in the middle to release an energy field that protects you, but there is a time limit, it can last for three to 10 minutes, and there is a time reminder on it." .”

"This won't work. It's too conspicuous for Rhea to wear this. Not only can't she participate in many activities, but it will also attract people's speculation." Malloy glanced at it, and then made criticisms one by one according to the manager's function.

"Especially on the belly — you don't know how many stories about pregnancies out of wedlock are going to be written up in the media."

Hank is stuck.

"It's good to keep her alive, she's an ordinary person! Malloy, do you still expect her to act as a star under the siege of the enemy?" Scott frowned, and he couldn't help but choke.

He has tried his best so far.

"If it wasn't for you, then we wouldn't be staying here at all, but should go to the film's celebration banquet!"

Malloy's words were extreme.

The shooting accident wasn't just a problem for Professor X - Professor X actually helped them.

But this did not affect the two men looking at each other with hostility.

Now Rhea can see what's going on, Scott seems to know the former Malloy, and their relationship is not very good.

It's even more impossible now.

She chose to ignore the two, and turned to Hank the Beast: "Sorry, can you?

Would you please change it into a lady's watch? "

"Okay. I'll try." Hank couldn't wait to take the steps that were handed over, he was relieved, and left the atmosphere of the confrontation between the two.

Professor X didn't speak for a while, but just smiled, and seemed a little emotional.

Sensing Rhea's gaze, he immediately put away his smile again, and said to Rhea: "Let's measure it, and let's see how you are recovering by the way."

Since Professor X offered life-saving equipment on his own initiative, there was no need for them to push back.

Malloy looked sullen, but said nothing more.

Rhea obediently followed Hank's instructions and sat down on an instrument.

Hank walked to the other side and debugged for a while in front of a monitor screen. The huge alloy closed and reopened in front of Rhea, transmitting a series of data.

At this time, Malloy skipped Scott and stood directly behind Hank, guarding against their small moves.

He stared at the monitor for a while, seeing nothing, which made Malloy tense from shoulder to arm, and focused on Rhea.

"Well, it looks like your body is recovering well." Hank analyzed while looking at the data that popped up above: "But the body fat is too low, and there are some problems with the stomach... I suggest you pay attention to your diet."

Professor X frowned disapprovingly.

Rhea ignored this trivial problem, and asked: "Is there nothing else? Didn't find anything special?"

"This is just a rough scan. You can't find anything just like this. If you want to try, you can let me take some blood samples." Hank became slightly excited.

Then he immediately explained: "Well, don't worry, take it out for on-site testing, if you don't like it, we will destroy the blood sample immediately, and your genes will not be preserved..."

Professor X said with concern: "Malloy, you should also have a checkup. During this period, you have used your ability many times, and there are no adverse reactions?"

Malloy looked at him warily, with distrust in his eyes.

Rhea thought to herself, it seems that she is incidental, Professor X actually wants to check her agent.

A scheming guy, he said he was willing to let go and give him a chance to test, but he still can't rest assured after all, right?

"Drip!"

Just in time, the report began to print the test results of "recovery agent subpackage 01" under the operation of the advanced machine.As Hank was about to get it, Malloy couldn't wait to grab the paper and hand it to Rhea.

Rhea sat up from the instrument to read

Read assay.

She couldn't understand the long paragraphs of symbols, but Rhea was sure of one thing. More than one line was marked with multiple "+"s, far more than that. Of course, this is not good news.

Hank doesn't need a paper report, he can look directly at the monitor, he lifts the pair of glasses that are too delicate and small for him, and sighs.

"Oh! It really is something from Essex—for the ultimate recovery effect, this thing contains a high concentration of X gene. To be precise, this type of X gene is not simple self-healing, but repairing tissue and cell reorganization— —

If the content exceeds the tolerance of ordinary people, it will lead to tissue distortion. "

Rhea and Malloy looked at each other.

This is basically in line with the information given by Andre Witte.At least in this matter, neither side should have lied to her.

She gave a smiling face: "Thank you, this information is very useful to me."

Rhea took the initiative to extend her hand this time, Hank was still a little stunned, she had already said, "Don't you need my blood sample? Please help me to have a physical examination with Matthew, I'm already healed, but I have some Worry about Matthew."

Malloy's resistance fluctuated, but after contacting these mutants with his own eyes, he still accepted Rhea's choice and defaulted to doing the inspection.

The test that can be done this time is very comprehensive, more thorough than all the items that can be done in the hospital, it takes less time and is more efficient.

Because the test was performed in front of them, Rhea felt a novelty.

She keenly noticed that Hank was obviously more focused and careful when studying Malloy's blood sample.It wasn't obvious what they did, but it was clear that he spent more time with Malloy than he did.

"Hmph." Rhea pouted at Professor X.

Malloy's ability has only just begun to be revealed, and it has become so complex and changeable. Of course, it is impossible for Professor X to let go completely.

Professor X just sighed, he cast his eyes on Rhea, and glanced gently, but it didn't bring the girl's awakening.He is a wise man with the overall situation in mind, and Rhea only cares about the interests he can get in front of him——

But she's not that bad, and she's not that stupid.Against this kind of person, Professor X is naturally at a disadvantage.

Hank first analyzed Malloy's blood sample: "Your X genes have been fully activated. They not only repaired all the defects in your body, but also evolved stronger than before..."

Realizing his gaffe, he swallowed nervously and looked at his companions.

Professor X immediately linked the minds of everyone except Malloy.

Of course including

Rhea.

'careful. '

Rhea was a little nervous.

But to her surprise, Scott turned sideways in her direction first, as if he was afraid that Malloy would go crazy and hurt her.It seems that he is not as tough and indifferent as he appears on the surface.

But Malloy didn't take it seriously at all, he just thought that Hank was comparing it with when he just woke up, and he cared more about—"Where is Rhea's, is everything normal?"

"Oh, yes, yes, there's no problem." Hank hurriedly remedied, he was eager to say something, to make up for his previous mistakes.

So instead, he took Rhea's blood sample sheet and said a lot.

"There is nothing wrong with it. This is the data that a healthy ordinary human being should have. The blood sugar level is a little lower, but it is still within the standard range..." Hank said a lot. .

When he turned to a row of data, he got stuck: "Wait, that's not right! Your telomeres are too short."

"Impossible, you are still so young! What's going on?"

Immediately, a conversation from memory jumped out from the depths of Rhea's memory.

'Riya, the length of 'telomeres' at the end of chromosomes will shorten with age, and the length means the speed of human aging. '

'A young body with abnormally short telomere chromosomes is probably the product of cloning. '

She seemed to have been hit hard by something, and her face turned pale instantly.

'Andrei Witte! '

'It is likely that the superhero Adrian Witt made a young clone for himself in order to delay aging.But he's not quite Adrian - I'm not sure. '

This was what another Hank, Hank Pym, told her when she took Andre Witter's gene to someone for a DNA test.
