Upon hearing this, William Stryker's expression finally relaxed a little, but he still didn't understand what Dr. Carol Foster was trying to say, and he frowned and looked at her with some confusion.

"I have roughly divided Mutants ability levels based on the most common physical enhancement Mutants."

Dr. Carol Foster was not influenced by William Stryker and continued to recount her findings in a methodical manner.

"Take X-Force as an example. Although Fred, John Wraith, and Bradley have very different mutant abilities and strengths, in fact, their strength levels are quite similar. I would classify them as Level 3. Wade and Agent Zero are Level 4, James and Victor are Level 6, and as for Captain Chen Mo, his abilities can reach Level 8!"

Upon hearing Dr. Carol Foster's classification of Mutants abilities, William Stryker became interested. When he heard her assessment of the X-Force members, especially James, Victor, and Chen Mo's abilities, William Stryker's eyes narrowed, but he quickly relaxed.

Chen Mo and his two companions are indeed far stronger than the rest of X-Force. It's just that there wasn't such a specific ability level classification before. William Stryker only knew that they were strong, but he didn't know how much stronger they were. Dr. Carol Foster has now given him an accurate number, clearly showing the actual gap between them.

Dr. Carol Foster's narration continues.

"Among these, the ability level of psychic Mutants like Bradley is actually not easy to measure. Initially, we also determined their levels based on the power of their mutant abilities. However, when researching mutant ability replication technology, we conducted an ability replication experiment, copying the X-Gene of a Mutants with twice the physical strength of an average person and an ability level of two into a weak, even less physically strong, evil Mutants mutant ability is to secrete Venom. The final result of the enhancement was that after this Mutants gained the mutant ability that enhanced his body, his physical strength directly reached three times that of an average person! In other words, this Mutants's strength level is actually level three!"

Upon hearing this, William Stryker somewhat understood what Dr. Carol Foster meant, but his brows furrowed at the same time.

"After that, we conducted some similar experiments, copying the abilities of Mutants with a level three ability into the bodies of level two Mutants. The final result was that his newly acquired mutant ability was reduced to level two!"

At this point, Dr. Carol Foster looked into William Stryker's eyes and spoke slowly.

"Therefore, if James' healing ability were copied into other Mutants, the healing ability they would ultimately gain would not be as powerful as James'! Instead, it would be weakened according to their own ability level."

William Stryker's brows furrowed into a deep frown as he asked in a serious, low voice.

"What is the highest level of Mutants we've captured so far?"

"There are only a dozen or so at the third level; the vast majority of the others are at the first or second level."

Dr. Carol Foster, who was very knowledgeable about the Mutants at the base, quickly answered William Stryker's question.

"What about Wade and Agent Zero? With their healing abilities, can they withstand the Adamantium modification?"

William Stryker pressed on relentlessly.

"It's unlikely."

Dr. Carol Foster gently shook her head.

"If we use them directly for the first modification experiment, the success rate is only 10 percent at most. And if the modification fails, the Adamantium injected into their bodies will be completely scrapped and cannot be recycled and reused."

Dr. Carol Foster's words dispelled William Stryker's wishful thinking. Adamantium is a non-renewable resource, a gift from heaven, and its value is immeasurable. So far, only some Vibranium meteorites have been found in that valley in Africa, and the Adamantium that can be manufactured is very limited, and it is becoming increasingly scarce!

A single modification would consume hundreds of kilograms of Adamantium, which is extremely valuable. If it succeeds, all will be well, but if it fails, the loss of hundreds of kilograms of precious Adamantium is something William Stryker cannot accept!

"However, if we can successfully complete the first Adamantium reinforcement, and with the data from this experiment, we can make corresponding improvements to the reinforcement process, and then reinforce Wade and Agent Zero, the success rate will be greatly increased."

Dr. Carol Foster's words relieved William Stryker of a major worry. If the requirements for Mutants ability levels to modify "X-Weapon" remained so high, then his "X-Weapon" would not be able to be mass-produced. His goal in creating the "X-Weapon Project" was not just to create one or two powerful "X-Weapon".

But that was after this success; at least this time, he still faces significant problems.

"At present, there are only three candidates who can withstand the modification: James, Victor, and Captain Chen Mo. Among them, Captain Chen Mo has the highest success rate, reaching 97%, of course, after the self-healing ability is copied."

Dr. Carol Foster gave William Stryker more options, but William Stryker's expression did not relax at all, and he even rolled his eyes.

Chen Mo? If he dares to put Chen Mo on the operating table, General Munson will kill him!

How could he not know how much General Munson valued Chen Mo? Not to mention General Munson, he himself valued Chen Mo immensely. Just look at what Dr. Carol Foster said about the Mutants ability levels. Of the hundreds of Mutants they captured, all were at level one or two, with only a dozen at level three. Among the original members of X-Force, only Wade and Agent Zero reached level four. And Chen Mo?

His two subordinates, James and Victor, reached level six directly, while he himself was an astonishing level eight!

Although this is just a general classification, it clearly demonstrates Chen Mo's formidable strength.

If it weren't for the "X-Weapon" that could reliably suppress Chen Mo in the future, William Stryker would definitely be very wary of the powerful Chen Mo.

Moreover, Chen Mo's performance over the years has indeed been impeccable.
