Dr. Rice died in a plane out of control. This was a very, very bad thing for Hydra. Because senior scientists were not easy to recruit.
First of all, there were a limited number of top scientists in the world. The top 100 in various research fields were watched by almost all countries and organizations 24/7.
It is very difficult to bribe top scientists with money. In fact, scientists at this level didn't care much about money. Or they didn't have to worry about money at all.
Most of the people who could excel in the field of scientific research had nothing else in their hearts. As long as they lived a relatively wealthy life, they didn't need to live an overly luxurious life. Of course, except for a certain playboy.
Most of the scientists spent most of their money on research labs, workshops, and various experimental materials and equipment. These research funds were the real bottomless pit.
Take the Horizon Foundation, led by Tony Stark, as an example. This foundation did venture capital for a large number of scientific laboratories around the world.
There were relatively few investments in the general humanities and social sciences (mainly studying political and social relations in the form of the universe, which was a foresight for entering interstellar civilization).
The investment in bioscience and materials science was simply terrifying. For example, Tony was very optimistic about the [Parker Factor] program. The investment in the first phase was more than 50 million dollars. There might be more in the future.
In Peter Parker's plan, the [Parker Factor] entering partial practicality required the experiment to enter the third phase. In the third phase, the Horizon Foundation needed to invest more than 130 million dollars in Peter Parker. It might even exceed that.
As a scientist, Tony knew that scientific research was a bottomless pit. He was ready to throw 200 million dollars to Peter to burn. As long as he could burn a certain amount of results, the money was well spent. Because the future of the [Parker Factor] was broad, it was worth investing in it.
If the [Parker Factor] was really universal and could be mass-produced, then perhaps the entire process of human society would change.
Because of such a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, Peter Parker in London really couldn't be intimate with Gwen for too long. Although the two were still adapting to their telepathy and trying to control it.
This warmed up the relationship between the two of them from its original stiff state. At least when Peter left London, it was Gwen who rented a car to take him to the airport. Peter had been giggling since he came back. It seemed that he was making good progress.
Gwen was also very clear about the mission Peter was currently carrying. Putting aside his identity as the Spider-man of New York City. The leader of the Parker Factor Laboratory, Peter Parker, who was less than 20 years old, held great power and a huge amount of funds in the laboratory (of course, when the amount exceeded a certain amount, Tony or Pei Bo had to approve it).
This made Peter mature a lot, and also made him understand the severity of the situation. In addition to completing his courses at New York University, he also had to stay in the laboratory and occasionally work as a Spider-man to fight crime.
The Spider-man was so busy that he was about to die. However, after being exposed to the Reality Gem, the Spider-man's stamina had greatly increased. His spirit was also a lot better. Originally, Peter was absolutely unable to deal with so many things and he often dozed off in class.
But now he was energetic every day. Maybe the radiation of the Reality Gem was a good thing for him? Anyway, that's what Peter thought.
Then again, because these excellent scientists were not easy to find, even researchers like Peter who were not the best and could only be in the second-rate echelon were not easy to find. So the death of Dr. Rice made Red Skull's heart ache.
An excellent scientist was much more important to Hydra than thousands of soldiers. This was a huge loss, and someone needed to be responsible for this kind of loss.
So at Schmidt's signal, Crossbones executed the ground crew who were doing logistics for Dr. Rice's plane because it was their mistake that caused the accident.
Until now, everyone thought that Dr. Rice's accident was an accident. There were all kinds of coincidences.
This was also the power of Sentinel Alto. It hid in the core of Hydra, greedily devouring and transforming resources, but it did not let people find it. And now Dr. Rice, who was the most familiar with it, was killed by it.
In this way, Sentinel Alto has become a lot more stable. Like a crazy virus, Sentinel Alto continues to expand outward through Hydra's central control computer, backing up itself, and has been accumulating strength, waiting for one day to purify the world.
But all of this is still going on in the dark, and no one knows. And because of the death of Dr. Rice, as his deputy, the former Major General of the United States, and also the radical anti-Mutants pioneer: General Stryker took over!
Schmidt appointed him to replace Dr. Rice and continue to preside over the Sentinel's work. Because he had done this with Dr. Rice's father back then, and he had been working on the Weapon X project for so many years, Stryker was very experienced.
Although his scientific research ability is definitely not enough, it is still enough to catch the general. Didn't Rice say that the Sentinel's brain will automatically optimize every battle?
Then what Stryker needs to do is to escort this system. He doesn't need to do much.
Because he doesn't have much to do, Stryker applied to Schmidt to start the Weapon X project inside Hydra. In fact, Dr. Rice had already done this plan before.
But later, because of the birth of the Sentinel project, it was temporarily shelved in order to save money. Now that Stryker mentioned it again, Schmidt only thought about it for a while and agreed.
Because for the current Hydra, perhaps solving the problem of the Mutants Brotherhood is the top priority. Schmidt is even ready to let Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch start fighting, it's time to find some trouble for the Mutants Brotherhood.
And Stryker, who has just taken over Dr. Rice's power, also has a lot of things to do. For example, first send someone to find the biological experiment of a certain Weapon X project that had escaped before, the girl codenamed X23.
Master Mimic, Cougar, and Hunter Craven have work to do.
… …
New York City, as usual, is bustling. The lights are on, and the traffic is heavy. I'm flying in the night sky of this city, protecting the safety of this city. The young man with the toilet bowl head, Sam, thought gleefully.
But his heroic spirit didn't last long and was immediately interrupted by a phone call.
"Our double basil burger hasn't been delivered yet? Your delivery speed is getting slower and slower recently! As a reserve member, I will consider firing you! "The leader of the young star, Super Killer Mindy complained on the other end of the phone.
Well, I've been looking at the night view of the city for a long time, and I almost forgot my job. Sam immediately rushed to the place where he agreed with Mindy and Laura.
Although he doesn't know why, Sam, who originally wanted to be a Superhero, has now become a complete errand boy. What's more, he treated it as his job. Perhaps he had a wrong understanding of superheroes?
But it's okay for the young man to enjoy it. Anyway, this age is the time when there is too much energy to vent.
In an old building in Brooklyn, Mindy and Laura were sitting side by side, chatting about school while waiting for takeout to arrive.
"I noticed that Ron Dick from Class C, the eighth grade, has been quietly watching you in PE class. Do you think he has a crush on you? "Mindy held Laura's shoulder and said with a smirk.
Under the repeated persuasion of Big Daddy and the Punisher, Wolverine temporarily agreed to send his daughter to study with Mindy. Her guardian in New York, Big Daddy and the Punisher were in charge together.
So as classmates in the same school, Mindy and Laura now have more topics to talk about. But Laura's grades are very poor, and she is one of the last few in the class. Only her PE results are good, and she only started school in September, so she doesn't know many of her classmates.
So she doesn't know Ron Dick from Class C, the eighth grade, or anything like that.
Mindy continued to smirk. "It's the guy who likes to show off on the football field and likes to imitate Beckham. Every time you appear on the football field, he will put in a special effort to perform. "
Laura thought for a long time and shook her head. "I don't remember. I don't know him."
Mindy pursed her lips. "Well, poor Ron Dick. If he knew this news, he would definitely be heartbroken."
Just as the two little girls were chatting, a green figure jumped between the tall buildings, like a legendary martial arts master with Qinggong.
And this green figure quickly approached the roof of the building where the two little girls were.
The uniform was green, decorated with black and yellow lines. It was an extremely ugly color scheme and style. There are also two short sticks on his back. Needless to say, among all the superheroes in New York, only David has this kind of terrible aesthetic.
"Hey, girls, good evening. What can I do for you today? "David greeted Mindy and Laura with familiarity.
At this time, the boy with the bowl-shaped head flew back with all kinds of food. As soon as he landed, he saw David, who seems to be very familiar with the two "bosses."
