Chapter 94 - 092 | It Hurts During The First Time
A week later, the first recipients of 'Wöden's Blood' were ready to receive the treatment.
A total of 321 people whose blood reacted with the red crystals were eligible candidates for the 'Allied Superman' program. ??
Now, they were settled in a camp outside of London, waiting for a preliminary test.
It must be said that when the government apparatus is in motion, everything is done efficiently.
From screening suitable candidates to picking out qualified recipients, the speed was impressive.
"Brigadier General Cavill, the next step is the transformation process. However, I still recommend that you and the top brass of the Allies don't get your hopes up. "
Luke and Stephanie walk along the tree-lined path in Bletchley Manor.
Not long ago, news came from the Allies that General Sankt, who was in charge of the 'Aryan Superman' project, had somehow revolted. The backstabbing bastard took out the ambitious Führer, who was about to make a big show of his ambitions.
Sudden changes led to temporary chaos in Berlin.
The subsequent change of power and the cleansing of forces even delayed the Third Reich's advance.
General Sankt, who created an 'Aryan Superman' with great difficulty, couldn't expand the advantage any time soon.
The Allies were naturally happy with this situation.
They wanted to buy more time, and it was better to wait until the Allied Superman army's mass-production.
Therefore, the two camps maintain a delicate balance.
It can also be interpreted as being in the cool-down period, filled with the efforts to expand the army and the soldiers.
"To make a 'tank-class' soldier, it will take at least half a month's transformation time and several weeks of high-intensity training before they can formally serve and set foot on the battlefield. "
Stephanie explained.
"Wöden's Blood' is not like a serum. After receiving the injection, you can become a super soldier and become even more powerful. It has a transformation process. There will be some drastic changes from the skin on the surface to the muscle fibers and cells inside. "
Luke nodded to show his understanding.
He was different from the Allied leaders who urgently wanted to see results.
As the saying goes, haste makes waste.
After years of research in Berlin, three 'battleship-classes' were created. How much faster can the Allies go?
"I approached Dr. Arnim Zola about the cultivation of 'Wöden's Blood' and research work. He used to be the chief scientist of Hydra, designed powerful energy weapons, and has some experience in biology."
As the Strategic Science Reserve leader, Luke has a lot of power and can mobilize a lot of resources.
Recruiting Dr. Zola, who is being held up, was a piece of cake.
"You don't trust us?"
Stephanie picked her eyebrows. Luke has put a lot of people in the 'Allied Superman' project these days.
For example, Steve Rogers, one of the first recipients.
And responsible for deciphering ancient documents, Peggy Carter - although the other party is British, she seems to be more inclined to the American side.
Now, there's another —— Dr. Zola.
"This is the reward for rescuing you, Ms. Stephanie. The Prime Minister promised to share the transformation technology of 'Wöden's Blood' and related information with the Strategic Science Reserve. "
Luke looked calm. He isn't a voluntary worker who does good deeds without asking for anything in return.
"Well, I'm just a researcher anyway, so I don't care about that. "
Stephanie shook her head and stopped talking about it.
She didn't pay much attention to national interests.
Winning against the Axis Powers and ending the World War is what Stephanie cares about.
"General Cavill, your friend, Steve Rogers, chose to join the 'Allied Superman' program. "
The female spy blinked, showed her charming smile, and tried to say, "He's a Super Soldier, and he is different from the others. According to my experience, Rogers may have a chance to survive 24 mutations and become a 'battleship-class.' Don't you feel anything?"
"General, with your power, if you participate in the transformation program, you will only become stronger! Maybe you could surpass a 'battleship-class' and become an even mightier being!"
Luke shook his head and refused Stephanie's tempting suggestion.
He coolly said, "I don't need to be 'a superman' because I already am one. "
Even if he wanted to use 'Wöden's Blood' to improve himself, he had to wait until Dr. Zola conducted a study and confirmed no problems.
In this world of superheroes, the poor rely on mutations, the rich rely on technology.
But Luke, he relied on his cards!
…
Two days later, at a camp outside of London.
Rogers was wearing only a pair of shorts, sitting on a high-back chair with his upper body bare.
His hands and feet were tied tightly, limiting his mobility.
"This is going to hurt, Captain Rogers. And this is your first time. Considering the consequences of failure, you can choose to give up. "
Stephanie, who wore a white coat, pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose.
"I can take it; go on!"
Rogers took a few deep breaths to show that he was ready.
The ambiguous conversation between the two made the atmosphere a little strange.
It's like they were about to play some kind of adult game that's unsuitable for children.
"Steve, don't let me down. I'm still waiting to fight alongside you in the raid on Berlin. "
Luke automatically ignored the ambiguous conversation in front of him and stood by to cheer.
"I'll try my best. If it doesn't work out, Luke, you have to remember to take care of Margery for me and tell her not to be too sad and find a better man. "
Rogers may be worried that he might not survive and prepare his last words in advance.
"I have thought it over. When the war is over, I'll go back to Brooklyn …"
"Shut up! I didn't hear anything. You better do those things yourself."
Luke quickly interrupted the crazy Captain America, who was setting up his death flags.
Such lines as 'I'll go home and get married after this battle,' 'I'll finish this last job and then I'll quit,' 'My child is about to be born,' and so on; basically if they say them, you could be sure that this person was fucked.
Even though Captain America should be the son of destiny in this period, who knew if Luke's arrival caused a butterfly effect.
In case Rogers was gone, he was worried that the Sorcerer Supreme, who is far away in Karma-Taj, would draw a circle and come to talk to him themselves.
