Next Target

Logan lay helplessly on the operating table, surrounded by flowing blood. The people around him collected every drop that spilled out.

Shen Fei put down the notebook in his hand and ordered, "Draw samples of his blood, red bone marrow, yellow bone marrow, tissue fluid, germ cells, stem cells... Prepare the slides."

"Yes!"

"If he resists, inject him with ether and the neurotoxin I prepared.

"Those are Vibranium Magnetic Handcuffs. He can't break free. And be careful of his claws." Shen Fei took off his lab coat and walked out of the laboratory with the research materials in hand.

He had been planning to compile the data and see just how powerful Logan's healing was when his phone suddenly rang. Shen Fei took it out and saw that it was Klaw.

"I found the person you were looking for, but since she's in the city, I can't deploy personnel. I had someone send the information to your computer."

"Alright."

"Oh, right. Eric Killmonger wants to meet you and have a chat."

"The day after tomorrow. I still need to run some experiments tomorrow. Also, find me some volunteer test subjects. Make it clear that there's a risk of death."

"Got it. I hired you a secretary. Her background is clean, and she's already signed herself over. Use her however you see fit."

"Didn't I say I didn't need one?"

"You definitely do. Otherwise, you'll probably forget to eat again. Remember to balance work and rest. Don't go dying on the operating table, or I'll lose a business partner."

Shen Fei hung up and returned to his room. They were currently living in a large villa in the suburbs, in a neighborhood inhabited by many wealthy people.

It was also one of Klaw's safe houses—hiding in plain sight.

In New York City, Hydra would at least not make a huge spectacle of things. A large-scale search like before was simply impossible.

The laboratory was underground. So that he could conduct research at any time and keep the research materials from affecting the others, Shen Fei had moved his room underground as well.

After returning to his room, Shen Fei first organized the materials. Wolverine's healing ability was roughly five thousand times that of an ordinary person, and the key factor was the Self-Healing Factor.

More importantly, he discovered that Wolverine's Self-Healing Factor was more like a catalyst. It accelerated wound healing without being consumed itself.

"There are secrets here that I never imagined."

Shen Fei muttered as he looked over Wolverine's healing data. Why did this kind of self-healing not require energy expenditure? It had to be the effect of the Self-Healing Factor.

Every Mutant's genes were a treasure trove. Logan, whom he had only just acquired, had already shown Shen Fei that the so-called X-Gene of Mutants could distort the laws of physics to a certain degree.

"The people at the top are complete idiots. Every Mutant is a fortune, yet they're afraid of their abilities and choose to kill them!"

Thinking of the Mutants' original fate, Shen Fei could not help cursing. Even now, the United States was still pursuing a policy of exterminating Mutants.

For the sake of his own abilities, he had to make the United States repeal that law.

After recording all the information, Shen Fei turned on his computer and opened the intelligence Klaw had sent him. It contained a profile on someone.

Jessica Jones.

A typical white beauty. Her history was recorded there, and when Shen Fei saw the school she attended, he frowned. "High School... Peter Parker."

"I need to find an opportunity to acquire Osborn shares. At the very least, I need to get my hands on all their biological research labs."

Shen Fei muttered to himself.

Pushing that idea to the back of his mind for later, he refocused on Jessica. She was his next target.

Jewel.

A female Super Hero with superhuman strength and the ability to fly.

She had been Spider-Man Peter Parker's high school classmate.

During a trip to Disney.

She and her younger brother had argued in the back seat, distracting their father as he drove and tried to comfort them.

Their car crashed directly into a military truck loaded with radioactive chemicals, killing the entire family.

Only Jessica survived. She was sent to the hospital and remained in a coma for several months. When she woke, she found that she had gained the ability to fly and strength far beyond that of ordinary people. Jessica was later adopted by the Jones family and renamed Jessica Jones.

Her flight ability was currently Shen Fei's best option. There were actually better targets, such as the Fantastic Four's Human Torch and Thor, but both Human Torch and Thor were too powerful.

They also had teams behind them. Whether it was the Fantastic Four or the Avengers, Shen Fei could not afford to provoke either of them right now.

So he would start with Jewel.

The key was that her abilities were acquired through mutation caused by radiation, which meant they were highly replicable, even if the odds were low.

With his research ability and the Spirit of Evolution's power to absorb extraordinary abilities, as long as there was a chance, he could raise it to one hundred percent.

"Alias Detective Agency... closed all year round? Could she have already encountered Purple Man?"

Shen Fei continued analyzing the situation and refining his plan.

For a period after Jessica gained her abilities, she had been enthusiastic about becoming a Super Hero. But not long afterward, she encountered a man known as Purple Man.

His ability was mental hypnosis and control. Jessica possessed super strength and flight, but her mental resistance was that of an ordinary person. When she tried to stop Purple Man's crimes, she was controlled by him.

Her body and mind were constantly violated. Although she was eventually saved by Dark Phoenix, she remained depressed for a long time, only regaining her confidence after meeting Luke.

"You two really are my treasures."

After reading through all the information, Shen Fei muttered to himself. Still, this was somewhat troublesome. In terms of raw strength, Logan was definitely stronger than Jessica, but the key was that he was alone.

On top of that, he lived in seclusion. Once they knew his weaknesses and dispatched a large force, how could he possibly escape?

But Jessica could fly. If Shen Fei failed once, she might be even harder to capture next time.

And then there was New York. In this place, throwing a brick could potentially hit a Super Hero.

Whether he deployed a large force or went to capture her himself,

he could easily draw attention. That Bald Egg Hero's surveillance of extraordinary individuals had practically reached the point of madness.

If a battle between extraordinary individuals broke out, Shen Fei would definitely be put under scrutiny.

Hydra was already watching him from the shadows. If S.H.I.E.L.D. was added to the mix...

Especially that Bald Egg Hero. He still had a trump card behind him.

Captain Marvel. Shen Fei was even less able to provoke someone of that cosmic level.

"Still, I absolutely have to get the ability to fly. Otherwise, what kind of Superman would I be?"

Flight was standard for Superman. And many Super Heroes operated on the ground; if Shen Fei could fly, then against many Super Heroes, he would be virtually unbeatable.

After sorting out the data, Shen Fei locked his door tightly. Tomorrow, he would truly explore Wolverine's mysteries.
