Marvel's Umbrella

Chapter 7: Shorting Stock Prices
In the base 300 meters underground in the Umbrella Building, Manhattan, New York.

Li Feng put his hands behind his back and looked at the experimental subjects in the laboratory.

At this point, the experimental subject was no different from a monster.

I saw that the subject had grown a new monster head, which was gradually replacing the subject's original head, and the subject's original head moved to the original left chest.

A strange object began to protrude from the broken skin on the right chest, and the new hands on the belly were basically detached from the body.

At the same time, the subject's right eyeball became even bigger, and his fist evolved into a giant claw, while his left hand and both feet began to turn into monster form.

This is the second stage of the G virus. The Nemesis parasite takes over the dominant position in the experimental subject, generating a new bone structure, new skin, a new brain, and a new head.

"Woooo..."

The monster in the experiment twisted its body from time to time, as if trying to wake up, but it would soon be injected with a sedative and then calm down.

After looking for a while, Li Feng frowned slightly.

"No, although G-3 entered the second stage faster than G-2, it consumed more nutrient solution than G-2, and its strength does not seem to be stronger than G-2."

"Did the experiment fail?"

While he was still thinking, the voice of Red Queen suddenly rang in his ears.

"Master, there is news about the actual combat effect of the C-2 virus enhancer in the Middle East, but judging from the results, it is not very good."

Li Feng, whose thoughts were interrupted by Red Queen, immediately came to his senses.

"There are actual combat results so soon? Is there any combat video?"

Although the initial C-1 virus can quickly strengthen the user, it can also turn people into insect-like monsters.

This is unacceptable and unsellable to most people.

The commercial value is so low that no one would buy it unless they were desperate.

So Li Feng made improvements, suppressing some insect genes so that after injection, it would slowly strengthen the user without changing its appearance.

Only when the host suffers a fatal attack is the virus's function fully unlocked, starting the strengthening of the insect's genes.

This is the modified C-2 virus, and it is also one of his best-selling products.

Of course, he also has a more powerful version of the C-3 virus, but it is not for sale at present because the C-4 virus has not been developed.

His first principle in doing business is to always keep something in reserve and not sell the latest product.

"There is a battle video, and the data transmission is starting now."

After Red Queen's voice fell, a projection appeared in front of Li Feng, but the data was still loading.

It seems that the next step is to optimize data transmission.

The current time point is 08, and the general public is still using 3G networks. 13G networks will not appear on the market until 4.

Although Li Feng has developed a speed almost as fast as the 4G network with the help of Red Queen, it still feels too slow.

After a few minutes, the data was finally transmitted and the projection began to play.

The scene on the screen is the one where Tony is fighting the little boss.

Watching the little leader fully activate the C virus and stimulate the insect's genes, Li Feng immediately began to judge and analyze the data.

If I'm not mistaken, this is a mantis with genes, but it also retains most of its human nature.

The strength increases to about thirty times, the speed reaches about one hundred meters in three seconds, and the defense can withstand ordinary rifle bullets.

But unfortunately the battle was too short and his endurance could not be seen. Also, although the opponent retained his humanity, his intelligence seemed to have decreased a bit, and he actually started to evolve in front of the enemy.

In this regard, the C-3 virus has not been improved very well, and we can only try to improve it when developing C-4 in the future.

As the projection ended, Li Feng remembered something else.

The current plot has reached the point where Iron Man goes to the Middle East to fight against the dark forces. It seems that Tony will soon come up with a new energy source. By then, the stock price of Stark Industries will rise quickly, even surpassing the previous level, and then double or triple.

"Red Queen, buy back all the shares of Stark Enterprises that were shorted."

Now that he knew that the plot of the Marvel world was about to begin, he naturally would not forget that after Tony returned to the United States, the first thing he did was to close the weapons research department and then stop all arms transactions.

This move caused Stark Enterprises' stock price to drop by more than half.

So last month he asked Red Queen to short Stark Enterprises and made a lot of money.

It is precisely because a large amount of funds were used to short Stark Enterprises and acquire Starship Corporation that his liquidity has been tight recently.

"Yes, Master."

Just when Li Feng was about to continue studying the G-3 virus, the experimental subject in the laboratory suddenly opened his eyes.

"Roar!"

With numerous needles inserted into his body and sedatives being injected continuously, the subject used his right giant arm to pull out the needles and then tore off the restraints on his body.

When the experimental subject behaved abnormally, Red Queen noticed it immediately.

"Drip drip..."

As the alarms sounded, four fully armed security guards wearing tight black uniforms immediately appeared at the door.

They were holding particularly sturdy rifles in their hands, and after observing for a while, they immediately aimed at the experimental subjects in the laboratory.

"Roar!"

At this moment, the experimental subject roared, raised his huge right hand, and punched the 30-centimeter-thick bulletproof glass.

With a "bang", cracks suddenly appeared on the bulletproof glass.

Seeing this, Li Feng, who was behind the bulletproof glass, immediately showed a look of slight interest.

This bulletproof glass can even block sniper rifles with tens of thousands of joules, but it was cracked by just one punch.

Obviously, the G-3 virus is much more powerful than the G-2 virus, and the experimental subject can still get rid of this large dose of sedatives, which shows that the body's resistance has also evolved.

You have to know that this dose of sedative is the dose for ten elephants.

"boom!"

The subject hammered the bulletproof glass with his right hand again, which made the crack bigger and even spread to the entire piece of bulletproof glass.

After being hammered for a while, the bulletproof glass could no longer withstand the impact and shattered.

"Roar!"

After the experimental subject let out a roar of victory, he immediately rushed towards Li Feng in front of him.

When the security personnel saw this, they immediately pulled the trigger without hesitation.

"Da da da…"

A large number of bullets hit the experimental subject, but did not even break the skin. The bullets only made a little indentation, but bounced out immediately.

The security guard's face suddenly changed when he saw this.

You should know that the rifles in their hands are not ordinary rifles, but electromagnetic rifles with power similar to that of sniper rifles.

Even Umbrella only has a small amount of this kind of weapon, and only the core security personnel in the base have it.

But even this kind of weapon did not cause any harm to the experimental subjects. It was simply horrifying.

Seeing that the experimental subject continued to rush forward and was about to rush in front of Li Feng, they threw down their rifles without hesitation, took out the black daggers, and rushed forward.

They are the enhancers of the T-3 virus and their own strength is not weak.
