The Devil Comes to America

Chapter 359: Mission

When Berlik came back, Bob immediately reported what happened to Robin.

Bolick frowned slightly: "Morris and Catherine chose the archives room?"

"The surveillance shows that they did use those cabinets to avoid surveillance." Bob said, "It was Morgan who discovered this when he came back to deliver something. The two men were indeed about to start, but were interrupted by Morgan. Sir, look at this."

Bolick was silent for a moment, then said, "You have worked with him for a long time, what do you think?"

"He is indeed our ace fighter." Bob said, "But his insistence on going to the archives is really abnormal."

“What files did they look at?”

"Nothing has been found yet, but when they clashed with Morgan, they knocked over a lot of filing cabinets, and the information inside was old stuff from decades ago."

Bolick hesitated for a moment. "So, your argument is that they are fine?"

"If you really want to point out the problem, it's only the incident at Key West. You know Morris's record, except for that incident."

"Where's Catherine?"

"It's the same, sir. Under normal circumstances, that woman shows no signs of being affected by the fifth-stage potion, but when she goes crazy, she wants to kill Morgan."

Bolick raised an eyebrow.

Suddenly, he said, "Why don't we just ask him? Let them come to see me."

"what?"

"Go do it."

Soon, Robin and Catherine were called to Berlick's office.

The two stood in front of Bolick, who sat leisurely on a chair.

Bolick said directly: "If you want to see any files, just tell me. There is no need to look like that, right Morris?"

Catherine knew that she had already prepared what to say when she and her partner came to see Berlik.

She had even made up her mind that once Borlik discovered something, she would take action against him immediately.

If Catherine were to say who the two strongest people are among the experimental subjects now, they would only be herself and Robin.

As long as they control Berlik, they will have the key to leave here and know the truth.

But just when Catherine was about to speak, Robin suddenly said for some reason: "Phoenix, New York, San Diego Base, including Key West, I need to know the truth, General."

While Catherine was stunned, Robin said seriously: "The truth about the Super Soldier Project!"

When Bolick heard this, he sat up straight from his lazy state and asked with interest, "So, you went to the archives room on purpose?"

"It has nothing to do with Catherine." Robin said, "I just told her to go somewhere exciting."

Although Catherine didn't know what Robin wanted to do, she immediately cooperated: "Damn it, Maurice, are you using me?"

Robin said nonchalantly, "Kill two birds with one stone, baby, there's no use for that."

Beric looked at Robin and asked, "What did you see?"

"If you give me a little more time, I might be able to find something."

"What's the purpose?"

"I don't want to die, General." Robin said as if it was a matter of course: "Look at those super soldiers you trained. Without me, how could they complete their missions? I thought I could at least get some rewards for doing this, right? What happened? I'm like a robot."

"I am stronger than the fifth-stage fighters, I am more stable and more loyal than them. I don't understand why I have to go on the operating table. I used to be a fourth-stage perfect fighter, and now I am a fifth-stage perfect fighter. I think I should be taken seriously."

"You haven't said what file you want to see Morris."

Robin grinned, "I want to find my file. I want to see what's so special about me. I want to see how many years I have left to live for you to target me like this. I also want to see if there's any way for me to leave here, just like those fifth-term warriors. They've been causing quite a stir lately, haven't they? If I find them."

Robin said, "I should be able to be the leader, right?"

Bolick tapped his fingers on the table, his tone somewhat silent: "Is this still loyalty, Morris?"

"You guys treated me like this, but I just wanted to run away." Robin also said with a smile: "I think this is already extremely loyal, just like the loyalty of those firefighters who saved the World Trade Center in New York. Unfortunately, I seem to have suffered the same betrayal as them, right, General!"

Hearing this word, Bolick felt as if his heart was stabbed.

"Okay." Bolick nodded: "I can see that you are discussing business with me."

"I don't want to do this either, General, but I think I can defeat Morgan, but I still have to call him sir."

"You have quite a bit of bonus money."

"I've lost my family since I joined the Super Soldier Program. What's the point of having more money? Where can I spend it every day at the base? Money that can't be spent is not as good as toilet paper. At least it can be used to wipe your butt, but I only see a bunch of numbers."

Bolick smiled. "Tell me what you want. Tell me directly, Morris."

"I want to be a colonel, or at least a major." Morris said directly: "Also, I need to know what happened to me. I also need a complete promotion path, at least the same as Morgan."

Bolick laughed, and laughed happily.

He likes people with desires.

Because this kind of person knows clearly what he wants, as long as you can give it to him, he will try his best to get what he wants.

As for concerns about Morris's loyalty?

He survived the first phase of the experiment, and the files on Bolick's side know Morris better than Morris himself.

Before the conversation, he was really worried that this guy would deny it outright, because that would mean that Morris had other ideas in his mind.

Judging from the various experimental data of the fifth phase of the drug, this is not a good sign.

Bolick stood up and said, "Morris, from now on you are no longer a lieutenant, but a lieutenant colonel. Three jumps, the documents may arrive a few days later."

"Thank you General, but this is only part of it."

"Keep your desire, Morris." Bolick said, "You are a perfect experimental subject. To be honest, we don't know how long you will live, but believe me, you don't have the short-lived sequelae of those super soldiers."

At this point, Pericles paused and said, "Do you still want to know the truth?"

"I don't want to be just a pawn." Robin said, "The Mud Legs' counterattack, I think I deserve it. That traitor was in charge of a base back then."

Bolick smiled even more happily: "Tell me what you want specifically?"

"What is that rain?" Robin asked.

"I don't know, but that thing can bring us element zero, which is the most important thing for synthesizing super soldier potion. We haven't figured out the rules yet, but I guess you've figured it out."

"What's the purpose of super soldiers? Stop talking about a new war. I don't think we'd be any more useful than a state-level missile."

"That's you." Berlik replied.

Robin snorted, "I knew it."

This reaction made Bolick feel more relieved.

But he still asked, "Did you know?"

"I was shot in the heart but survived. Other super soldiers don't have this ability. So the self-healing ability I mutated into is what the super soldier program needs, right?"

"Yes, you have to know that the military is always an extension of politics. Now there is more than one country on this planet that has the ability to destroy humanity. In addition to training warriors like you, the super soldier also has another task of exploring the secrets of life."

"Even today's super soldiers can ban drugs in Mexico. If our soldiers have abilities like yours, what in the world can't we control?"

"Can we also solve those annoying voices, including internally?"

Robin frowned: "Abandon democracy and embrace dictatorship?"

"You can guess as much as you want."

Robin smiled and said, "I like this. At least, according to the current rules, I will always be a soldier, but it may be different in the future."

"So do you have any questions?"

"My path to promotion won't be interrupted, right?"

"of course."

"That's all." Robin said casually, "This is much more fun than looking for those wanted criminals. Can I go on a mission, sir?" Bolick smiled and said, "There's a mission for you to do. Let's go to Phoenix. There's something there that needs you to solve."

Robin was stunned for a moment, but immediately said, "I was just joking."

"This is the only way you can go Morris."

"Okay, let's go back and prepare."

"Bob will arrange everything for you from now on."

Robin and Catherine left, and Bob came in from outside. He took off his headphones and said, "I can tell that Morris is hiding something from us."

"No one would turn their heart out to me directly, Bob. Maurice at least determined his direction. He is indeed too good. Fortunately, we have what he needs."

"But."

"I know you're still worried. Julia can still give him what we give him, so let's take advantage of this to get him moving around more. If he's really poached in the future, we'll have less loss, right? We need a replacement for him."

"I understand what you mean. We need him now."

A plane took off from here and headed all the way to Phoenix.

As the plane passed over Phoenix, two people jumped out of it.

The parachute landed outside Phoenix City. After Robin sent out the coordinates, he looked at Catherine and said, "This mission requires you to fake your death and leave this place."

Catherine said as she sorted out her equipment, "I need to know the reason. You told me before that you wanted to fight your way out, but you suddenly asked for benefits from Bolick. Robin, why?"

"Two reasons. First, Berlik is too dangerous."

"He's a super soldier too?"

"I don't know. I just instinctively felt that he was dangerous."

"What about the second reason?"

"I need evidence." Robin said seriously, "Evidence that will let the public know the truth."

Catherine frowned. "So what did you see Robin? You never told me. I think as the unlucky guy who cooperated with your actions, I need to know something."

Robin took a deep breath and said, "I saw a record of an experiment."

"What?"

"The body's functions are restored." Robin grinned and said, "Their experiment was successful. The fifth-stage potion has no side effects, but there is a time limit."

"And then? Why are you so excited?"

"Because it mentioned that there is a shortage of raw materials." Robin said slowly: "And the so-called raw materials are the key to synthesizing the medicine."

"Berrick just mentioned that rain."

"That thing will be carried by humans." Robin continued, "Phoenix happened to have that kind of rainfall, just like the San Diego base. I was investigating the incident at the San Diego base. They would do anything to get this thing. Do you remember the many people who passed the experiment at the No. 4 base?"

Catherine nodded: "Residents of Phoenix."

Robin nodded and said, "I just thought before that they built Base No. 4 in Phoenix to mass-produce super soldiers, but do you think the fifth-stage potion with no side effects will only be given to soldiers?"

"you mean"

"I once heard Bob talk about how expensive it is to make a perfect Phase IV test subject. Where does the money come from? Is it just Congress?" Robin pursed his lips and said, "Even if it is, these medicines can be used by soldiers, so why can't politicians and wealthy people use them? They have plenty of money."

Catherine was stunned for a moment, then she understood in an instant: "Damn it, this is not a super soldier potion, this is a vampire potion! Those people in Phoenix City will become blood bags for those old guys who need young people!"

"And New York," Robin said, "or somewhere else later. Is the blockade of Phoenix really just because of those rats? If so, why prevent the residents of Phoenix from leaving that dangerous city?"

Robin looked at Catherine seriously when he said this: "So, this matter is too dangerous. You have helped me a lot, Catherine. Find a chance to leave here during this operation. I will contact Jia Yu and Mr. Xiu to take you away."

Catherine frowned: "You want to find evidence yourself?"

"This is my mission!" Robin said very seriously, "It is also something I must do! Do you see my face? I have died once, Catherine, and I can survive because of this mission now!"

Catherine thought about it, then said, "Okay, it sounds dangerous. But you don't have to contact him. I also have the contact information of that oriental boy."

"what?"

Catherine smiled and said, "How do you think the experimental subjects at Base 4 got out of control? Your friend is a crazier Robin than you think. By the way, what are we going to do this time?"

"Catch him." Robin said, "A super soldier with no record."

"what?"

Robin was about to say something when he saw a car approaching: "They're here."

Two jeeps stopped in front of the two men, and the people in the rear jeep got out first and pointed their guns at the two men.

Morgan in the car in front finally got out of the car and snorted, "You are lucky. But I advise you not to cause trouble on my territory. This is an evaluation of you."

"Why is it this disgusting thing?"

"Why, you wanna do something to me, new soldier?"

"I will." Catherine sneered, "After all, he is a guy who can't even deal with a group of rats."

But Morgan was not angry at all. He just curled his lips and said, "Once you encounter them, you will know how difficult they are."

"Get in the car. The information is all in the car."

The two got into the car.

There was indeed some information on the back seat.

The two opened it and looked at it. Robin's face changed, but he still said calmly; "A child?"

Catherine said: "Still black."

"Yes, his name is Sweet." Morgan said, "When we noticed him, he was being chased by a group of rats. He was wearing a Hoodie Man mask and showed the ability of a super soldier."

"How did you find out that he was wearing a mask?" Robin naturally remembered the black child.

"He probably didn't know how many satellites were watching this city. He was smart and disappeared from the satellites. We then started investigating the consumption records of those people in the nearby area. The good news is that his family is a model black family in Phoenix, so not many people live there."

"There are quite a few people around here who have bought the Hoodie Man mask. There are six people who fit that height. It's simple, isn't it? We can tell by looking at who has an abnormality. This Sweet is the abnormal one."

Catherine asked from behind: "Since we have found him, why don't you catch him?"

"Hiding."

"You failed?"

Robin looked at the description at the back of the information, and a look of surprise flashed across his eyes: "The fifth experimental subject team didn't catch him!"

"Yes, he ran away."

Robin secretly said in his heart, "That's great!" Morgan continued, "Besides, the rats are also chasing him. The good news is that he hasn't left Phoenix. The bad news is that it's hard for the rats to find him, and it's even harder for us. That's why we need you to come."

"We are only responsible for arresting people."

"Of course, he was hidden by those rats. Take a look at this."

Morgan threw over a flat board with three mice on it, some with short hair, some with long hair, and some without hair. The smallest size was marked as about 1.3 meters tall.

"We think he seems to be working with rats. They hide in various apartment buildings and community foundations. Our heavy firepower can't be used. Once the super soldier team goes there, they will be discovered and then move away. So we need a few new faces."

"Don't worry about the rats, just catch this kid. The higher-ups are very interested in him. They want to know why this kid has the ability to escape from the Fifth Stage and has none of the Fifth Stage's disadvantages. You know, none of the Fifth Stage soldiers who caught him died. One of them was ambushed, but this kid didn't kill him."

Robin's frown deepened.

The car quickly drove into Phoenix and stopped in a garage.

Morgan got out of the car and said, "You have also been to Phoenix, so I won't introduce you. I have marked the place where they disappeared last. The next step is yours. Bolick has said that you have to complete this mission by yourselves."

At this time, in a high-end villa.

Shulman handed Sweet a portion of food, and opposite them were three huge rats.
