Two days later, at the CIA Technology Building laboratory.
"Hank, do you want to remove the X-Gene from your body and become an ordinary human?"
Jerry looked at the latest version of the genetic serum Hank had handed him. The Analysis Magic Array in his pupils shifted slightly, quickly analyzing every component in the serum.
Hank gritted his teeth and nodded.
"Not all Mutants are like you and Charles, able to live without hiding. People like Raven and me are practically no different from monsters. I don't need any superpowers. I just want to live like a normal person.
"In this vial, I added the shapeshifting gene isolated from Raven's blood. Combined with my previous research, I think it might be possible to restore Mutants to normal."
After speaking with Mystique Raven last night, he had learned that Raven shared the same troubles. With her consent, he had drawn her blood for research.
This was only the initial version, with many flaws. He wanted Jerry to offer some advice and guidance.
Jerry took the genetic serum from Hank, but immediately shook his head and handed it back.
"Your genetic serum can't remove the X-Gene at all. Injecting it will instead cause the X-Gene to mutate."
Over the next few minutes, Jerry pointed out the biological principles behind Hank's genetic serum one by one, as well as its errors, and even deduced the possible mutations that could result after injection.
Mutants were products of a series of experiments conducted by the Celestials, who had used humans on Earth as their template.
Their existence involved even more advanced technology than the Inhumans created through Kree experiments. It was not something that could be removed with the machines and knowledge of this era.
Mystique's X-Gene primarily gave her shapeshifting abilities. She could become
