Become a Homelander and a Marvel superstar
Chapter 633 Code Name: Argos
Strange looked down at her chest.
The golden magical membrane was flashing rapidly. Finally, with a soft "pop," the magical membrane shattered.
Fresh blood gushed out from the wound again, staining the sheets red.
"No, no, no."
"Christine...look at me, please." Strange grasped her cold hand, his voice choked with emotion.
Christine's eyes were closed, her face was pale, and she had completely lost consciousness.
Strange felt a wave of despair.
Even though he transcended time and space, he still couldn't save the woman he loved most.
Suddenly, a flash of lightning struck his mind.
He released Christine's hand and quickly rummaged in his magic pocket.
"Please...please..." Stephen frantically pulled things out: magic books, enchanted items, whiskey.
Finally, Strange pulled out a small, temperature-controlled metal box.
Click! The box opens.
A syringe lay quietly inside.
Inside the glass tube, the pale blue liquid reflected a faint light.
It bears the logo of the Vought Group and a line of small print: T-VEX Improved.
Insiders at Vought International referred to it as Compound Five.
According to Homelander, this thing, with just one injection, has the potential to turn an ordinary person into a superhuman.
Strange didn't know if this thing could save Christine's life, but he had no other choice.
He removed the protective cap from the syringe and aimed the needle at Christine's fair neck.
The entire tube of blue liquid was pushed into her vein.
Strange pulled out the syringe and tossed it to the ground.
He stared intently at Christine's face, holding his breath.
Time passed second by second.
Strange's heart sank to the bottom.
"Please...please..."
Suddenly, Christine's body twitched.
Then, a strong and powerful heartbeat sounded.
Boom!Boom!Boom!
Strange's eyes showed shock.
Christine's fatal penetrating wound in her chest is healing at a visible speed.
The granulation tissue grew rapidly, and in a short time, the wound completely disappeared, leaving only a smooth patch of skin.
"what……"
Christine let out a long gasp and opened her eyes.
They breathed in the fresh air deeply.
"Stephen?" Christine sat up, her eyes filled with confusion. "I...what happened to me?"
She looked down at her chest, where only dried bloodstains remained on her wedding dress; the wound had vanished without a trace.
Strange pulled her into a tight embrace.
"You're alright. You're alright," he murmured, bursting into tears of joy.
As Christine felt the warmth of Strange's embrace, she gradually recalled everything that had happened in the church square.
She patted Strange on the back and whispered, "I'm okay, Stephen. I'm here."
After a while, Strange calmed down and let go of her.
"This feeling... is strange." Christine looked at her hands. "I feel a surge of power within me. What did you do to me?"
"That's a specialty from my hometown," Strange said with a wry smile. "Now, you're a superhero too, Dr. Palmer."
"It seems we're all monsters now." Christine looked at Strange, her face showing no fear, but rather a relaxed smile.
Strange stepped forward and took her hand.
"I'm sorry, I broke my promise to live a normal life."
"Ordinary life can't save us from our fate." Christine grasped his hand in return. "Since the Illuminati won't let us go, then we'll find another way to live."
As Strange looked at her rejuvenated face, the gloom in his heart vanished.
"Ready for another escape, Mrs. Strange?"
"Always be prepared."
……
New York, Illuminati headquarters conference room.
All the Illuminati members were seated around the circular conference table.
A holographic projector in the center of the conference room is running, displaying a three-dimensional model of two universes slowly approaching each other.
"This is the final conclusion given by the Multiverse Monitoring Center."
"The countdown is thirty days," Reed broke the silence. "This is the final deadline before the two universes collide."
"What's the solution?" Carter asked.
"There is no gentle solution. The two universes are already anchored to each other, and it's irreversible." Reed shook his head.
"If you can't stop the collision, then why did you call us here? To wait to die?" Mordo asked Reid somewhat impatiently.
Reed remained silent for a moment.
He reached out and typed a complex string of code into the control panel.
The image on the holographic projection has changed.
The image zoomed in rapidly, revealing a red aiming marker. That was Earth in another universe.
"We can't stop them from colliding, but we can change the conditions under which they collide," Reed's voice turned somewhat cold.
Everyone was watching him, waiting for him to continue.
"This is the Buster Foundation's ultimate plan, codenamed: Argos." Reed pointed to the red marker. "Tony Stark proposed this theory a few years ago, and we weaponized it after his death."
"What weapon?" Carter had a bad feeling.
"This weapon is called... Time Ripper..." Reed explained slowly. "This weapon mainly consists of two energy channels, one channel transports matter and the other channel transports antimatter."
"When matter and antimatter meet, they annihilate each other instantly, converting 100% of their mass into a devastating shockwave."
"What consequences will this have?" Charles asked nervously.
"Destroy one of the trains before they collide," Reed said, staring directly at Charles. "We'll destroy the universe on the other side!"
The air fell silent instantly; even the sound of breathing seemed to disappear.
Everyone was shocked by Reed's insane plan.
Destroy a parallel universe and wipe out trillions of lives.
"You're insane, Reed." Captain Carter broke the silence first, standing up angrily, her eyes filled with disbelief. "You're talking about genocide! Universe-wide extinction!"
“I’m talking about survival, Peggy,” Reed retorted. “It’s a simple math problem. If we do nothing, people in both universes will die. If we destroy them, people in our universe will survive!”
"Whether it's two for zero or one for one, it doesn't require complicated calculations."
"Human lives are not just numbers!" Captain Carter slammed his fist on the table in anger. "There's another Earth there! There are billions of innocent people there, children, families! We have no right to decide their lives!"
"But we also have a responsibility to protect our people!" Maria joined the debate, her gaze cold as she met Captain Carter's.
