Leo's entire body was immersed in the machine.
His whole body was slowly pushed inside as countless gentle beams of light shone down from the machine.
A rough human body data model also appeared on the virtual screen outside.
Tony kept operating and clicking on something on the screen.
The beautiful doctor, Dr. Zhao Hailun, also came over. With a swipe of her hand, an identical virtual screen separated from the main display and floated in front of her.
She also began clicking on something.
"Full-body X-ray scan underway. Commencing fluoroscopy."
"Cardiac ultrasound, abdomen, thyroid..."
"Drawing blood. Preparing for blood analysis."
As each control was pressed, countless procedures officially began at the same time.
A small pressure needle plate extended from one side of the machine and pressed against Leo's arm.
A brilliant beam of light slowly moved forward from the bottom of the machine, conducting a meticulous examination.
The tiny blood-drawing needle precisely pricked toward Leo's blood vessel, and under mechanical control, it moved like the gentlest nurse.
The only awkward part was that the needle stubbornly pressed against Leo's skin, yet refused to pierce it.
The pushing force had already reached its limit, but it still failed to advance even a fraction.
"Sir, unable to draw blood. The needle cannot be inserted."
"Scan failed. All examination procedures have been blocked by an energy layer."
J.A.R.V.I.S.'s voice rang out.
For a moment, large areas of red warning flashes appeared on the virtual screens in front of the two of them.
The portions that had just been detected were instantly blocked from being displayed, becoming a blur of data.
The human body simulation data on the screen, along with the lifelike human model that had just appeared, also instantly became a blur. Nothing could be seen clearly, and they could barely make out the body's limbs.
Only a bright point fixed around the chest of the blurred human model flashed with brilliant light on the screen.
"That is a powerful Energy Core. The energy field formed by it has also rejected every detection method. Tony, this energy is even stronger than the Arc Reactor in your chest!"
Dr. Zhao Hailun glanced at Tony and spoke softly, her voice filled with shock and astonishment.
Tony also came over to the machine and lightly tapped it. "Hey, Leo, are you home?"
The machine slowly extended outward, and Leo sat up from inside it with his big eyes open. "What is it?"
Tony swiped and shifted his palm, displaying all the examination results from before in front of Leo.
"There's a powerful energy source inside you blocking everything. How did you do that? Is it like your wings?"
Tony looked at Leo's bare upper body, then deliberately walked around behind him and stared at his smooth back, asking in confusion.
"Really? It can even detect that?"
Leo moved his shoulder blades slightly. A strange azure light flashed from within them, as if something were about to burst out of his body.
But the light suddenly vanished, completely beyond the expectations of the other three.
Leo then lay back down. The high-energy reaction in his body rapidly weakened, and soon, all the examinations returned to normal.
Even the blood-drawing system successfully extracted nearly thirty milliliters of fresh blood from his body under Leo's deliberate control.
Although everything was proceeding steadily and normally,
Dr. Banner and Dr. Zhao Hailun outside exchanged glances, their eyes filled with disbelief.
The two of them had never encountered such a situation before, and they were also stunned by what that azure light had actually been.
Tony, on the other hand, looked completely unfazed, as though nothing he saw happen to Leo could surprise him anymore.
He continued operating the entire machine without pause, seeming unable to wait even a moment as he kept watching each fresh batch of data.
Dr. Zhao Hailun and Dr. Banner were likewise so shaken by the data, which was abnormal and even somewhat fantastical, that they could not speak.
They merely calculated in silence what the data represented.
Batch after batch of dizzying data glittered with beautiful radiance in the eyes of the three of them, deeply captivating their attention.
In less than five minutes, all the examination procedures were complete, and the machine extended outward, allowing Leo to stand on the floor again.
The three people a short distance away were each looking at the data in front of them, with different areas of focus.
Tony cared somewhat more about neural responses, organ tissues, and physiological reactions.
Banner was more focused on muscle strength, bone hardness and density, body fat percentage, and various other physical statistics. He also kept calculating something in his hands.
Dr. Zhao Hailun was focused on the cell tissues in Leo's body, as well as the blood analysis report that was still being processed. She was more concerned with genetic data, which was very similar to Banner's area of observation.
Although all of them were experts who had seen countless physical examination reports, they once again became immersed in this completely different set of bodily data.
Leo came over and looked at the long strings of academic terms and complicated data models on the screen, feeling a headache coming on.
Even so, he could clearly see that something was wrong. The warning signs covering the entire report were bright red, and compared to the standard values listed beside the data, nearly every result was three to five times higher.
Leo could not understand much of it and did not think too deeply about it.
His current Physical Fitness had already exceeded fifty points in every category.
The dividing line for the human limit was twenty points.
It had to be said that in Leo's examination, Captain America—Steve Rogers—had an average of twenty-one points, exceeding the human limit in every aspect.
That was already a nonhuman level of Physical Fitness. His maximum average speed could reach seventy-eight kilometers per hour, and he had once run 1.6 kilometers in seventy-three seconds. He could also complete a forty-yard sprint in 3.82 seconds.
For Rogers, his powerful Physical Fitness gave him extraordinary endurance, while the acid produced inside his body was rapidly neutralized, turning him into a true stamina monster.
Recovery, strength, speed, flexibility, jumping ability—if Captain America participated in the Olympics, he could sweep nearly every gold medal without any pressure. Yes, he was that powerful.
But Leo's body at this moment, bolstered by endless energy and tens of thousands of tons of Metal Enhancement, had already somewhat transcended the concept of humanity.
He could already be compared with the likes of Thor, Hulk, and Abomination.
Of course, the data also included the enhancement from Leo's own abilities, which was why his values stood out so dramatically.
But even if Leo were to fight for real right now, going head-to-head with Rogers would feel a little like bullying a child.
