An Excellent "Tool"!

William Stryker had initially been skeptical of Dr. Carol Foster, but that skepticism has now been dispelled. It's perfectly normal for a psychology PhD to have such a precise grasp of human nature, and besides, she was helping him, and he now needed her to complete the "X-Weapon Project"!

So William Stryker's expression softened quickly, and he smiled at Dr. Carol Foster.

"It seems your psychology skills can still come in handy!"

Dr. Carol Foster smiled slightly but said nothing.

William Stryker didn't say anything more. He took one last deep look at the Thing lying on the operating table, then turned and walked out of the laboratory.

Behind him, Dr. Carol Foster watched his retreating figure, a strange light flickering in her eyes!

However, she quickly withdrew her gaze and turned her attention to the Thing lying on the operating table beside her.

She raised her right hand, her slender, delicate fingers gently tracing the hard, rough rock skin on the Thing's chest. The rock-like feel brought a gentle smile to her lips.

Amazing Mutants!

Meanwhile, William Stryker, after leaving the laboratory, did not go directly to Chen Mo, but returned to his office first.

William Stryker closed the door but did not turn on the light.

Using the dim light streaming in through the window, William Stryker walked around the desk and slowly sat down in his chair.

In the dim light, William Stryker slowly raised his arm and rested it on the desk, clasped his hands together, stared at his fingertips, but the focus of his pupils began to wander.

The suspicious William Stryker did not so easily accept Dr. Carol Foster's suggestion to go directly to Chen Mo, even though it did seem like a good idea.

Sitting in his chair, William Stryker went over Dr. Carol Foster's words in his mind once more.

The requirements for Adamantium enhancement are extremely stringent. The recipient must possess a strong self-healing ability to withstand the immense damage to the body caused by injecting extremely hot liquid Adamantium into the entire body!

While they can copy James' healing ability to others, the Mutants' own ability levels limit the strength of the healing ability they can obtain. Among the Mutants, only Chen Mo, James, and Victor meet the requirements!

William Stryker frowned, racking his brains to think of all the possibilities and try to find the best solution. In the end, he found that, just as Dr. Carol Foster said, James was the only option, and that talking to Chen Mo about this issue was the best way to persuade James.

Ultimately, William Stryker had to admit that Dr. Carol Foster's advice was indeed the best approach available.

Releasing his hands, William Stryker slowly stood up from his chair, straightened his tie in the darkness, William then walked around the desk toward the office door. He was going to talk to Chen Mo Stryker!

"Captain Chen Mo!"

In Chen Mo's private training room, Wade and Agent Zero were listening attentively to Chen Mo's comments on their recent battle when a gentle voice suddenly came from the training room door.

The two students, annoyed at being interrupted, turned around and saw a figure in a suit walking in from the training room door.

Upon seeing the person's face clearly, Wade and Agent Zero couldn't help but suppress their displeasure and shouted expressionlessly.

"Colonel!"

However, their greeting was more of a formality, with little respect in their expressions or words.

"Colonel Stryker."

Chen Mo also greeted William Stryker as he walked over.

William Stryker glanced at Wade and Agent Zero, nodded slightly, and spoke directly to the two of them.

"You all go back first. I have something to discuss with Captain Chen Mo."

In the past, they would have left immediately upon receiving an order from William Stryker. However, in recent years, William Stryker has not interfered much with X-Force, and they have become accustomed to following Chen Mo's commands. Therefore, upon hearing William Stryker's order, the two did not leave immediately but turned to look at Chen Mo.

Chen Mo nodded slightly and said to the two of them.

"You guys go to the Training Room and train with the others first. I'll be there in a bit."

Wade and Agent Zero nodded upon hearing this, then turned and walked out of the training room.

William Stryker knew that the members of X-Force were now more Chen Mo, and in fact, this was a result he had tacitly approved.

His purpose in forming the X-Force was to use the power of powerful Mutants to capture Mutants and search for Vibranium meteorites and other materials for experiments, thus providing a guarantee for the completion of his "X-Weapon Project". Once the "X-Weapon" is successfully manufactured, the X-Force will lose its value. Therefore, William Stryker did not care about the changes in Wade and Agent Zero. They were just tools, and tools that were about to be phased out!

Only Chen Mo, the best among these "tools," could catch William Stryker's attention.

For example, right now, after Wade and Agent Zero left, William Stryker suddenly broke into a hearty smile and said happily to Chen Mo.

"Captain Chen Mo, I have some good news to tell you!"

Chen Mo smiled slightly upon hearing this.

"What could make you so happy, Colonel, must be some new progress in your research, right?"

"Hahaha! I knew I couldn't hide it from you!"

William Stryker burst into laughter upon hearing Chen Mo's guess.

"That's right! Dr. Carol Foster's mutant ability replication technology has been successfully developed, and the X-Weapon Project can finally truly begin!"

"This is indeed good news."

Chen Mo smiled and nodded.

"However, we now face a problem."

William Stryker's smile vanished, replaced by a worried expression as he spoke to Chen Mo.

"The first step of the X-Weapon Project is to inject liquid Adamantium into the entire skeleton of the modified human, giving the X-Weapon an indestructible body."

"However, this requires the recipient to have a strong self-healing ability in order to withstand the damage to the body caused by the high temperature of Adamantium during the modification. According to Dr. Carol Foster's analysis, only James can withstand this modification. Even if others replicate his self-healing ability, the final effect will be greatly reduced, and they will not be able to withstand the Adamantium modification at all."

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo's gaze sharpened instantly. He looked at William Stryker with an unfriendly expression and spoke slowly, his voice carrying a hint of coldness.

"Are you trying to turn James into X-Weapon?"
