Chapter 203 Tianma
“.Driving on the dark and dark desert road, the cool wind blew my hair, and the strong smell of Dama permeated the air”
"Looking up into the distance, I saw lights flickering. Then she lit a candle, and there were voices coming down the corridor, and I thought I heard them talking."
"Welcome to Hotel California, what a beautiful place, what a lovely face."
Sunshine, road, warm wind.
The "Mustang" galloped on the interstate highway in California. As the car drove rapidly, the warm summer wind blew through the woman's thick short silver-white hair, like the warm hands of a lover passing through the hair.
Even though Dr. Wendy Lawson has listened to the song "Hotel California" released by the Eagles for nearly ten years, she still can't help but be intoxicated by the heart-pounding tragic feelings in it, as well as the Longing for the anticipation of returning home.
About 150 kilometers away from Los Angeles, on the empty and lonely road leading to Edwards Air Force Base, the sound of guitar strumming in the car stereo accompanied by Dr. Lawson's beat on the door frame, the long and boring solo walk seemed no longer lonely.
From time to time, she rubbed the two orange cats coiled up on the co-pilot, and soon, the outline of the air force base came into her eyes.
Founded around the 1930s, Edwards Air Force Base was once one of the training centers of the American Air Force during World War II.
Today, in addition to the regular training of Air Force pilots, it is also the test base for the special research project "Pegasus Project" jointly established by the Strategic Science Department of the "SHIELD" led by the American government, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, and the Air Force.
"Pegasus", one of the most famous fantasy creatures in Greek mythology, is said to have been born of Medusa and Poseidon, the **** of the sea, and its more widely known name is Pegasus.
"Dr. Lawson, Mr. Stark is already waiting for you in the laboratory. By the way, you look great today!"
"Oh! Thank you Harrison, I'm an old man, you're going to spoil me like this"
The guard on duty at the test base looked at Dr. Lawson's gentle and smiling face, and watched her turn and leave cheerfully.
Strange to say, Dr. Wendy Lawson has short silver-gray hair and is said to be in her fifties, but with her mature and intellectual temperament, her firm, white, beautiful and hearty face, she looks only in her thirties charming lady.
Guard Harrison and a few other guards often chatted and speculated that Mr. Stark cared so much about the advancement of the "Pegasus Project", probably had an inseparable relationship with this charming female doctor.
Dr. Lawson came to the office and changed into a white lab coat, and gave the orange cat "Guz" a few words as if talking to a child. Before she could go to the "Light Speed Engine" research and development laboratory, the door was locked Click lightly.
Howard Stark responded to the sound of "please come in" inside, and leaned half of his body.
"Hi Wendy, I just passed by and saw you just arrived. I saw the new and improved engine model, genius move! No 'Pegasus Project' and don't know how many years it will take to get to this point. "
Mr. Stark subconsciously pressed one side of his well-fitting hair, and wanted to interact with Dr. Lawson's orange cat a few times, but Mr. Guz rolled his green eyes with vertical pupils and gave him a fat His **** fell asleep.
"Thank you Mr. Stark. Although the theoretical basis of the current engine is mature, but only relying on these extracted energy modules, it is difficult for us to study the universe and this unknown dark energy to meet the required standards."
Dr. Lawson shook his head calmly, he didn't care much about Howard Stark's praise, and continued to list various problems encountered in the research.
".Most of the dark energy storage modules are still captured and collected during World War II. The purity and magnitude are not at the same level as those of the Howlett Group. Although I trust the driver Carroll, the engine instability and The risk factor is still too high.”
Mr. Stark is no longer the suave Chief Scientist of the Strategic Science Corps, but his body shape has remained well-proportioned over the years, and Stark, who is used to wearing formal clothes and being well-groomed, is still a charming old gentleman.
He leaned against Dr. Lawson's desk, remembering that his "Ark" reactor had been stuck in a dead end all these years, and all his gains and troubles came from the mysterious energy bodies seized from the "Hydra" troops.
"So I specifically want to ask you again today. You must know that it is much more difficult to meet Mr. Howlett than to meet the president. I still got this opportunity through the relationship of two old friends."
Howard turned his head sideways and pressed his bow tie, lowered his voice slightly and continued cryptically:
"... You don't want to meet in that world, 'that' world! The most terrifying man on this planet in legend?"
Wendy Lawson blinked her eyes and seemed to be flustered for a moment. She straightened her silver-gray hair uncomfortably, pulled through a stack of data calculation materials, and flicked through them, casually perfunctory.
"...Look, there are a lot of things here, and I'm not good at public relations work, hehe. It's up to you to coax that gentleman. I just use this core source of energy to do some research. I think such a big man should not Will be stingy."
"I haven't congratulated you on raising such an excellent son, the youngest all-award graduate in the history of MIT? Tony is only seventeen years old. How about it? Ask him if he is interested in participating in the 'Pegasus' project."
"Ho! I didn't raise him, that kid. Heh, as for the youngest and top student was a guy named Reed Richards. He was a down-to-earth kid, going on to Caltech, Harvard Multiple Doctor of Science degrees from universities such as
Dr. Lawson listened to Howard Stark as if he had opened a chatterbox, pouring out his complaints and anguish about his son Tony's perverse behavior.
She couldn't help but smiled and shook her head. The relationship between father and son at this age seems to be limited to a script of mutual discord.
Consolation and reminded Mr. Stark a few more words. Watching his back leaving the office, Lawson was silent for a moment, slowly opened the drawer, and stared at the golden armband lying in a metal box.
Wendy Lawson stroked the protruding star pattern with her fingertips, and finally muttered to herself after a long time:
".James Howlett, known as the 'Wolf Emperor', is almost a god-level figure on the planet, alas. How dare I go to see him, just in case—Supreme Intelligence. Is it true that you will never make mistakes? ?”
Empire State Building, 350 Fifth Avenue, Manhattan, New York.
The 100th floor at the top of the building, in an empty and solemn dark golden hall, has a ceiling height of nearly nine meters, and the space of thousands of square meters is empty, except for a simple blue-black rectangular stone table.
The video projector in front of James had just revealed the face of Hank McCoy in blue.
"The Beast" wears a pair of large round-rimmed glasses, and wears a tie with his naked body. His barbaric and ferocious appearance like a lion is matched with a gentle demeanor, which is quite elegant like a tiger sniffing a rose.
He bowed his head and bowed to James, his throat roared like a beast, and he reported solemnly.
"Sir, with the launch of the two satellites recently launched, the extraterrestrial orbit detection system covering the world can finally be launched. We are no longer blind to the possible 'visitors' from outside the earth."
Hank’s image was hidden in the light curtain projected in the center of the rectangular stone table, and then changed into a miniature model of the earth, a group of light green omentum-shaped shields regularly orbiting forty-eight satellites in special orbits Down, completely covering the planet.
Theoretically, this satellite monitoring system can detect all objects that pass through the earth's atmosphere from outer space, whether it is a meteorite, a rocket ship, or even an organic life individual.
Following the order of James Howlett ten years ago, a search for extraordinary powers like a "big bottom" was launched all over the world,
This system was also included in the task list of the scientific team of the "Wolf's Nest" base after Emma, Peggy and others discussed and studied it, and it was finally completed and started today.
Jade-like fingertips tapped his forehead. After listening to Hank’s detailed and responsible introduction, James smiled freely, and said in a non-cautious half-joking way:
"Hank, maybe before this system was started, an unknown number of aliens had slipped in, and we were always in the stage of creating behind closed doors, hehe, maybe we really encountered some alien technology , people have already had more advanced countermeasure technology."
James was wearing a slim gray casual suit, with half-length black hair tied behind his ears, and he didn't really care whether this technology could really "guard" the earth perfectly.
Today, because he promised Steve and Peggy to meet Howard Stark in person, he rarely came to the headquarters of Howlett Group in the Empire State Building in New York.
After chatting with Hank McCoy for a few words about orbiting satellites, he said a little seriously:
".Compared with this monitoring and defense system, I would rather be able to truly improve the inter-galaxy navigation technology. It is indeed difficult for you. If you can get a few so-called alien spacecraft, it will save you from doing so. to some groping alone."
Tiger-like claws popped out from the thick and long fingers of the beast. He scratched his chin. His thick and long indigo mane was like a thick beard. The pair of vertical pupils mumbled in thought:
"Sir, the U.S. government is led by Mr. Howard Stark. The 'Pegasus' project promoted by Dr. Wendy Lawson has solved this part of the problem from the perspective of the light speed engine. Well, this Dr. Lawson with excellent ability It can be regarded as turning out of nowhere.”
“. If we don’t have a significant breakthrough in space folding technology, it’s not advisable to use the method of freezing warehouses.”
James raised his eyebrows, and helplessly heard Hank start to talk about technical issues related to the professional field. After a long while, he finally interrupted when he caught a loophole:
"So Hank, I agreed to Stark's request, and I am willing to talk to him face to face, hehe, I wanted to buy Stark Industries many times a few decades ago, but he never let go, he is an interesting person .”
As James ended the call, just as he put away the video light curtain, he heard a few knocks on the heavy dark golden door of the hall.
A tall and slender young lady walked in slowly with her slender waist twisting in a long green dress that covered her hips.
