Listen to Me, Thank You

On his way home, Chen Changsheng received an unexpected call from General Ross of the military.

Looking at the moon, which had already risen halfway into the sky, Chen Changsheng really didn't know why he was still receiving a call from General Ross at this hour.

But as General Ross was Umbrella Corporation's biggest client, Chen Changsheng, adhering to the principle of "the customer is God," still answered the call.

General Ross's voice on the phone was quite serious and a little urgent. "Jack, I think I need your help. Please, you must agree to my request."

General Ross's serious demeanor made Chen Changsheng hesitate to agree immediately. After a brief pause, he finally spoke, "General Ross, I'm not sure what you need my help with. If I can help, I will certainly do my best."

Receiving Chen Changsheng's affirmative answer, General Ross continued, "I've encountered some trouble recently and need your technical support. Also, the Tyrants you gave me last time have sustained some damage. I wonder if you can repair them."

When mentioning the damage to the Tyrants, General Ross's tone was clearly a bit off. Tyrants were, in a sense, living beings. General Ross's use of the word "repair" was questionable, but thankfully, Chen Changsheng understood what he meant.

Repairing Tyrants? Chen Changsheng was puzzled. Under normal circumstances, if a Tyrant sustained a gunshot wound or other attack, its extraordinary regenerative abilities would allow it to recover quickly.

And if the damage exceeded a Tyrant's capacity to heal, there was usually no hope of recovery. So, Chen Changsheng couldn't imagine what those Tyrants under General Ross had gone through.

While thinking, he replied to General Ross, "Of course, Umbrella Corporation is certainly capable of repairing the Tyrants. However, it will be very expensive, enough for you to buy a new one."

General Ross obviously didn't care about what Chen Changsheng said. It wasn't his money being spent anyway; the US Military was footing the bill. What reason did General Ross have to care? Moreover, if the military refused to pay, there was always the US Congress.

In any case, General Ross was in a tight spot. As long as Chen Changsheng was willing to help him this time, he could easily send more repair orders to Umbrella Corporation.

After some time communicating, Chen Changsheng understood why General Ross needed his help.

It turned out that after receiving several vials of the Lizard Gene Enhancement Serum from Chen Changsheng's Umbrella Corporation last time, General Ross had taken them back to have his research team try to replicate them.

However, the results were not very good. At that time, General Ross had focused all his attention on the Lizard Gene Enhancement Serum. Meanwhile, another laboratory under General Ross's command had experienced an accident, causing considerable damage.

This was a laboratory belonging to the military, under General Ross's jurisdiction. It primarily researched the effects of Gamma Rays on biological radiation. As a laboratory that wasn't particularly important to anyone, General Ross naturally didn't pay much attention to it.

But he never expected that this very laboratory, which he didn't pay much attention to, would experience an accident that nearly drove him mad.

A Green Monster, whose origin was unknown, had broken through the laboratory walls, abducted the chief scientist, Bruce Banner, and destroyed almost all the research equipment.

The equipment in this laboratory was world-class and incredibly expensive. Such significant losses had angered the higher-ups behind the scenes.

General Ross found it even more unacceptable. During the first encounter with the Green Monster, General Ross had attacked fiercely, but the outcome was disastrous.

Not only did General Ross's forces suffer heavy losses, but even the powerful Tyrants were unable to withstand the Green Monster's attacks and were nearly destroyed. In the end, some aircraft, tanks, and even a school building were also destroyed.

These terrifying losses almost caused the higher-ups behind General Ross to abandon him. Fortunately, General Ross, with his clear logic and eloquent speech, swore to the higher-ups.

He claimed the Green Monster had high research value, and capturing it would compensate for all losses. It could even lead to the creation of more super-soldiers like Captain America Rogers. With such a grand promise, the fury of the higher-ups was somewhat appeased.

The higher-ups behind General Ross had all had the good fortune to meet Captain America Rogers. In their youth, they had all yearned for Rogers' superhuman physical abilities.

This was precisely why they had consistently supported General Ross's research into super-soldier serums.

Considering his friendship with General Ross and the prospect of great rewards upon capturing the Green Monster, the higher-ups decided to give General Ross another chance.

Having finally received another opportunity, General Ross became desperate. If he failed this time, his political career would likely be over.

Therefore, General Ross spared no effort, lobbying his former subordinates and acquaintances everywhere, attempting to assemble another unit.

Fortunately, General Ross had good connections. After exerting immense effort, he managed to put together an elite ace unit, although it was still slightly inferior to the Tyrant unit.

Ross mused that this Green Monster bore a striking resemblance to the Tyrants when they transformed into green lizard-men. Perhaps there was some connection.

Thus, General Ross called Chen Changsheng late into the night, hoping to gain some inspiration or technical support from Chen Changsheng, an expert in bio-genetics.

Something that could trouble a military magnate like General Ross at this time, and was also green, could only be that one Green Monster.

Actually, Chen Changsheng didn't want to get involved in this matter. According to the movies, the angrier the Hulk got, the stronger he became, theoretically with unlimited potential.

Even though Thanos could beat the Hulk into questioning his existence with a few punches, that was Thanos. Chen Changsheng, with his frail body, probably couldn't withstand even a few punches from the Hulk.

Moreover, Chen Changsheng's biomass had been depleted, and he had little Life Essence left from the Willow Tree. Facing a powerful monster like the Hulk, he might not even be able to escape.

However, the prospect of observing the Hulk from a distance, and even collecting some genetic samples to evolve a stronger Hulk, was very appealing to Chen Changsheng.

Chen Changsheng had previously promised General Ross that he would help him to the best of his ability. For the sake of future good relations, Chen Changsheng ultimately decided to help General Ross.

As for capturing the Hulk alive, Chen Changsheng hadn't even considered it. What Chen Changsheng meant by helping General Ross was merely helping him face reality and abandon the unrealistic idea of capturing the Hulk.

If General Ross knew Chen Changsheng's intentions, he would surely shout at Chen Changsheng, "Listen to me, thank you..."
