Skye sat on the bed with her legs together, her arms wrapped around her knees, and boredly counting the cracks on the white wall in front of her.

This is the isolation cabin of SHIELD Aircraft, and she has been here for two days.

There were really not many activities to do in the isolation cabin. Colson arranged a special TV for her to pass the time, but she soon became bored with watching TV. One reason was that she was not in the mood, and the other reason was that the TV could only receive a few news channels.

Recently, a terrorist organization called the "Ten Rings Gang" seems to be quite arrogant. Various news stations are full of news related to this organization. They openly provoked the US president and launched many decisive terrorist attacks, which set off a considerable wave in public opinion.

Several channels were full of things about the Ten Rings Gang, and the "Mandarin" who claimed to be the leader of the gang talked about the story of Lucky Cookies on the screen, threatening to teach the United States a lesson. Skye was upset after watching it for a while and simply turned off the TV and ignored it.

After returning from that damn underground city, she seemed to be completely different. The reaction she showed after a blood test made her feel like she had become a brand new species.

According to the laboratory, it seemed that her body had become completely different from the genetic level and could hardly be called a human anymore. Agent Simmons explained to her that she used gel electrophoresis or some other detection of purified DNA molecules. She mentioned what DNA reordered and extra macromolecules were mentioned later, but she understood the only thing she had.

That means she is no longer herself.

A day later, it was said that a agent discovered Rena - the woman who was infected like her when Terrigan mist spread in the temple. According to the agent's description, Rena seemed to have a creepy black barb on her head, her eyes turned into amber-like golden color, and her whole face was deformed and ferocious. In the words of witnesses, it was like "a furious beast."

When he heard this, Skye couldn't help but wonder, if Rena became a "furious beast", then what would I be?

The bad experience of this mission made everyone feel depressed, especially one of them, an excellent agent fell to pieces after petrification. They had a dispute and a fierce quarrel. In Skye's impression, she never seemed to have seen everyone lose control like this.

She didn't remember what happened at that time, but she just remembered that she was nervous and felt bad... and then the whole plane began to tremble, as if someone was pulling the plane with a string and swaying violently.

That time she lost control, she exploded a few light bulbs and glasses, but fortunately she didn't shatter anything important. But since then, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at her. In the past, she could see trust in the eyes of these teammates, but now she only sees worry and fear...it's like looking at a monster hiding under a beautiful skin.

What's worse is that when she looked directly at the person behind the mirror, she felt like she had also seen a monster in a trance.

If everyone thinks you are a monster, and if even you start to feel like you are a monster, then what else can prove that you are not?

Skye was displaced since childhood and was displaced and never settled down anywhere. ASCHE is the first place she has found so far that she thinks she can call her home... a destination.

As expected, as long as you are a human, you will need such a place? Even after saving the world, Superman will need to have a place to relax, take off his guard, and sleep peacefully with people you are close to.

If even such a destination disappeared... she didn't know what to do in the future.

On the plus side, she is already in the cage now, how can things go bad? She thought to herself.

The door of the isolation cabin was opened from the outside with a "click". Director Colson walked in.

"You'd better pack some luggage, Skye," he said. "We have to go out and go around."

"I guess you can't tell me where we're going, right?"

Colson didn't agree.

"Check your luggage," he said, "we'll set out in ten minutes."

Skye suddenly had a strange premonition.

She began to feel that maybe things could get worse.

When Michael unlocked the door and walked into the laboratory, Shirley had already directed various precision instruments to scan his trophy - the cluster of blue Kerry crystals - inside and out.

"Is our spoil research still going well?"

"It's basically done, sir."

"Show all data, cast on the virtual screen."

"Okay, sir."

The light blue interface opened one after another, surrounding Michael in a ring shape. He reached out and dragged the virtual screens made by the light one by one in front of him, and carefully read and studied.

"The crystal itself is harmless to ordinary people?"

"I conducted multiple tests and confirmed that the Terrigan crystal itself is harmless. Its components are extremely unstable compounds that carry components that identify specific mutant genes, but also store extremely huge amounts of energy. If enough crystals are weaponized, it can theoretically create extremely powerful weapons of mass destruction."

So White Hall's lifelong ideal is not entirely a fantasy, and the weaponization of the obelisk is indeed feasible in theory.

Michael asked: "So what's going on with petrification? I remember records showing that non-indians who came into contact with the obelisk had petrification."

"I believe that's due to the protective metal on the outer layer of Terrigen crystal." Shirley replied, "The metal wrapped in the outer layer of the crystal is an aggressive alien material that produces an instinctive response similar to immune rejection to non-inhuman gene carriers."

Michael browsed all the analysis results, roughly understood most of the properties of Terrigan crystals, and was convinced that the huge amount of energy contained in it could be extracted and used for weapons.

More importantly, although the energy provided by Terigen crystal is not endless, it can absorb elements in the air and automatically convert and replenish. No matter how much energy is consumed, it can recover itself as long as it is given sufficient time.

It is simply an impeccable perfect energy source.

Then he called out the previously preserved project archives of the "X-06" vibrating armor and cast the three-dimensional projection map of the semi-finished armor on the experimental table. He spent about four hours designing and modifying the energy core and energy supply lines of the new armor, and finally successfully established a virtual model of the armor driven by Terigen crystal.

After solving the energy problem, the design of the vibrator armor was basically completed. After some minor modifications were made, Michael saved the model, restored the data back to the "X-06" file, and ordered Shirley to prepare the materials and enter the actual operation stage.

"By the way, there is one more thing." Michael remembered something, "Help me check if there are any members of Tianjian who have a slightly more social influence in the Eastern European branch?"

After a moment of searching, Shirley quickly found the results. The photos and detailed information of seven or eight senior political leaders in Eastern European politics and financial giants all jumped out of the three-dimensional screen of the laboratory bench, each of them was the eyes and ears of Tianjian.

Michael swept the message of several people roughly, and finally stopped at the owner of an Eastern European multinational group.

"Lauren Beard, it's him." Michael pointed to the gray-haired old man in the projected photo. "I called the branch over there and said I had a task to hand him over."
