My Superhero Can’t Be This Jerk

In the night, a pair of huge bat wings spread, piercing the night sky.

Fully armed, Eric sneaked into the Water Research Center again.

Using gamma ray detection equipment, it is determined that there is radiation energy emitted from the underground layer of the research center.

However, the amount of radiation is very light, and it would never be discovered without the use of professional testing equipment.

Standing on the roof of the building, Eric first used the bat dart drone to detect the interior of the building, and then activated the superconducting state of the bat suit.

After the superconducting state is activated, you can enter the stealth state.

Using his invisible state, which cannot be recognized by sight and ordinary infrared detectors, he easily sneaked into the building.

After some investigation, Eric quickly identified a person who could be used.

Jon Fisher, a white male with combed shiny hair, wearing a black suit, and a serious face.

His title is Director of the Life Science Research Laboratory.

Eric was on the phone when he sneaked into his office.

"Yes, I will be responsible for fixing this matter. The stolen new No. 5 compound is only a batch of clinical reagents, which has little impact on us. I am not shirking responsibility. I will find them and not let them flow into the market."

He seemed to be trying to explain something to the other end of the phone.

"Yes, Mr. President, all the aftermath has been dealt with, and all the security personnel have been dealt with, and no information will be leaked."

Jon's voice was low and cold. After hanging up the phone, he stood up, walked to the window, and stared at the dark night.

"Maybe you are not careful enough, after all, the conversation between you was overheard by a third person."

Eric's voice sounded faintly behind him.

"who?"

Jon was startled by the sudden voice behind him, and immediately turned around to look back.

However, as soon as he turned around, he felt dizzy.

It seemed that something had penetrated his nostrils and into his head.

Consciousness was immediately lost, and the whole person became confused.

Eric put away the spores provided by Poison Ivy and pulled over a chair.

Grab Jon by the collar and throw him onto the chair.

Tom!

The dazed Jon fell on his back to the chair, making a dull crash.

Eric stepped on the chair, leaned forward, grabbed his tie with his left hand, and punched him in the face with his right hand.

The beating caused his nose to bleed profusely, and his face was peachy.

After letting him experience the feeling of being beaten, Eric asked him: "What is the energy source in the underground?"

Jon was first affected by the spores of Poison Ivy, and then he was stunned by Eric's punch.

For Eric's pressing question, without thinking, he subconsciously said: "Julie Stone."

"very good."

Eric nodded in satisfaction.

The development of things finally progressed smoothly according to my own idea.

"What it is?"

Jon has been controlled by the spores and is completely at Eric's mercy, so he didn't hide anything, and told Eric directly, "We don't know where it came from, but what is certain is that it is definitely not produced From the earth. It contains powerful energy itself, but it also emits a strong radiation effect."

"Then is the birth of your No. 5 compound related to it?"

"Yes, humans will be poisoned if they come into contact with this stone for a long time, but short-term radiation may cause humans to mutate. This kind of mutation is not all in a good direction, and it will also have extremely bad consequences. We call this kind of stone. The mutation is 'Meteorite Mutation'."

"Meteorite mutation?"

Eric repeated the word with a strange expression.

According to the characteristics of the meteorite described by Jon,

He was reminded of kryptonite in the DC universe.

The radiation of kryptonite, which appeared in the TV series Smallville, can mutate ordinary people. And long-term exposure to this kind of kryptonite will indeed poison people. Lex Luthor suffered from cancer due to long-term exposure to kryptonite.

Could it be that this is a piece of blue kryptonite?

Resting his chin with his right hand, he fell into deep thought.

Jon, with blank eyes, continued to explain to Eric: "After decades of research, Mr. Walter Federico gradually controlled the 'Julie Stone', extracted, refined, and mixed with certain compounds. Compound No. 5 was produced through complex production procedures."

"Injecting the No. 5 cooperative drug into the body of ordinary people can direct stable benign mutations and produce controllable mutations."

"Then what role did the people from the motherland play?"

Eric asked him.

"I don't know. The specific experiments on the natives of the motherland are in charge of Dr. Joson Wagner."

"Um......"

Eric nodded, he didn't have much doubt about the director's words.

After all, his mind has been completely controlled by Eric.

"Mr. Jon, I am very satisfied with your cooperation. Now, please take me to the underground laboratory. Oh, don't forget to clear all irrelevant personnel around."

Eric picked him up and handed him the phone on the table.

 …

Jon, whose mind was controlled by the spores, walked towards the elevator hidden in the mezzanine of the room like a walking dead.

Eric turned on his invisibility and followed him.

Unexpectedly, there is such a mechanism. There is a single elevator hidden in the study!

Should it be said that it is truly an institution with great secrecy and creativity?

Go down the elevator and arrive at your destination soon.

With a ding, the elevator door slowly opened.

Walking out of the elevator room, you can see a long white corridor.

Jon uses iris scanning and fingerprint recognition to open three metal security doors and enter a laboratory.

The moment he walked into the laboratory, Eric suddenly felt a weak form of energy radiating from the inside out.

Following the feeling, I found a glass container as thick as a person in the center of the room.

It was filled with liquid, and in the center of the liquid, there was a changeable diamond-shaped gemstone that was bigger than an adult's fist.

The surface of the gem is light blue throughout, exuding a gloomy light, and the surrounding liquid that illuminates it also turns blue.

"This is the Jolie Stone, part of what we have separated from the full Jolie Stone."

"What about the whole stone?"

"I don't know, where the complete Julie Stone is kept, only certain high-level members of the company's board of directors know."

Jon's eyes were blank, and he said this passage as if reciting a line.

Eric nodded, put his hands on the surface of the glass jar, and quietly felt the coolness emanating from it.

After confirming that the surrounding monitoring equipment was shielded, he lifted his invisibility and ordered Jon to take out the energy stone.

Kryptonite or not, I want it!

Click!

When all the liquid in the glass jar flowed out, Eric reached in and picked up the energy stone.

Suddenly, a strange sound came from the room.

It seems that something has been opened.
