BXBX NOVEL Chapter 281: The Allure of Longevity
Chapter 281: The Allure of Longevity
With S. H. I. E. L. D.'s black technology recuperation method, it would take about half a month to completely recover.
The only problem was...
The man named Wamuu used some unknown method to insert the two poison rings into the major artery of their hearts. Even the most advanced surgery could not remove them.
Moreover, the poison in the rings could not be analyzed. It seemed that the only way to save them was to defeat them and take the antidote in the lip rings as Wamuu had said.
Apart from the two of them.
This research institute, along with Colonel Stroheim, had a total of 147 people killed in the line of duty.
When more than a hundred human skins were neatly placed in front of their eyes, everyone fell silent.
The Pillar Man was terrifying and cruel.
It was like a red-hot iron that was deeply imprinted in the heart of everyone.
This was a battle of survival!
Success or failure was related to the status of prey and predators, as well as the honor of being the head of all spirits at the top of the food chain!
Just like two million years ago, when the ancestors of mankind defeated the Neanderthal, they established the current position of human beings at the top of the food chain!
The Pillar Man must die!
This was the thought in everyone's hearts!
After reporting all the information here, they received a reply in less than fifteen minutes.
After being confirmed by the members of the three major council, they jointly signed the highest level command, demanding that they capture the man of the super ancient race pillar at all costs.
That's right, it was capture!
Moreover, the higher-ups had specifically warned them that they must be the living Pillar Man!
When he heard this order, Steve was so angry that he almost went crazy. The rest of the people were also dumbfounded.
Capture?
In the face of a terrifying race that treated humans as food,
They didn't think about how to destroy the other party, but asked them to capture them alive!
Steve suppressed his anger. He grabbed his communicator and asked loudly, "Fury, I need an explanation. When you asked me to come over, you didn't say that!"
"Captain Rogers... I can't do anything about it." Nick Fury said with a tired face, "I swear I have tried my best, but this is an order from the council."
"F*ck!"
Steve frowned and said angrily, "What the hell are these bastards trying to do?"
"Long life..."
Nick Fury sighed. "The council saw the hope of humanity's long life on the Pillar Man, so they gave such an order."
Steve gritted his teeth and said, "But don't they know how dangerous the Pillar man is?"
"No one can refuse the temptation of immortality, especially when it is within our reach," Nick Fury said faintly.
Perhaps the so-called pig teammate referred to the politicians who paid attention to the corpses and disregarded life for their own selfish desires.
In the face of the temptation of immortality, things like life, morality, and laws were simply too cheap.
This was not the first time, and of course, it would not be the last time.
Sometimes Nick Fury felt tired. He clearly knew that the danger factor was very high, but there was a group of pigs sitting on top of his head. They repeatedly probed around on the edge of death, and after they were done, they let him wipe his butt.
Everyone fell silent for a moment.
Although there was only a difference of two words between capturing and eliminating the two, the difficulty was like heaven and earth!
If one wanted to capture the living body of the Pillar Man without using a fatal weapon, who knew how many lives would have to be sacrificed to do so!
Steve gripped his communicator tightly and said unwillingly, "But I can refuse to carry out this mission, right?"
"I suggest not."
Nick Fury understood what he was thinking and sighed, "The council controls the world's greatest power. The result of resisting them will only be worse."
Although Fury did not make it clear, Steve still understood the hidden meaning, "Unless you don't want to live in this world, it is best not to resist the council."
"I didn't expect to meet such a disgusting group of people after sleeping for seventy years." Steve hung up the call weakly, a look of disappointment on his face.
This was not the first time he had experienced such a situation. Back in World War II, there were many similar politicians who ordered him to complete missions against his will with all kinds of selfish requests.
"We need to make a plan."
Steve looked around and found that everyone was suppressing their anger. He said helplessly, "First of all, Coulson, come and gather all the information about the Pillar Man that we already know."
The special operation team led by Rumlow could not access information about the Pillar Man in terms of authority, but now that they were about to fight with such a terrifying creature, they had to be familiar with all the habits and weaknesses of the other party, so it was very necessary to gather information.
"No problem."
Coulson took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart. "Currently, there are three men who know the pillar. They are at least 100,000 years old or even older. Their flesh and bones can be squeezed and deformed at will."
"Secondly, the Pillar Man also has a strange ability called 'Flow'. It is known that Wamuu in the group of three can use this ability to launch a powerful storm attack. The collapse of the underground research room is because of this ability of Wamuu."
"Other than the above points, everyone must pay attention to not touching the skin of the Pillar Man. Otherwise, they will devour and assimilate it like food."
"Wait..."
Hearing this, Rumlow could not help but frown. "You only mentioned their strengths. What about their weaknesses?"
"Unfortunately, we still don't know the weakness of the Pillar Man." Coulson sighed and shook his head. Currently, there was too little information about the Pillar Man, and he could not find the weakness at all.
Steve pondered for a moment, and his brain worked wildly. "The biggest problem we are facing now is how to find these three men of the pillar. Coulson, Melinda, do you have a way to track them down?"
"This is not a problem, Captain Rogers."
Melinda May smiled, "If we mobilize the Heavenly Eye System, we'll be able to find their tracks very soon."
The Heavenly Eye System was born based on the massive network and cameras around the world. It was the predecessor of the 'Project Insight' that Pierce had carefully planned to use to search for the traces of the three Pillar Men. It could be said that it was not too easy!
Steve, who had been asleep for seventy years, obviously did not have a deep understanding of modern technology, so he was somewhat skeptical.
Melinda didn't explain too much. She directly turned on the computer she carried with her and inputted the characteristics of the Kars, Esidisi, and Wamuu into the system. Then, she used the dozens of satellites in the nearby orbit and instantly began a huge search.
Mobile phones, ATM machines, surveillance videos, driving records, and so on...
All electronic devices that could be connected to the Internet and had cameras became part of the Heavenly Eye System at this moment.
Everyone waited patiently for a few minutes before the Heavenly Eye System found the Pillar Man.
"Found it!"
Melinda narrowed her eyes and said, "They took an international flight and left Italy. They officially arrived in America this morning!"
Everyone:???
