Chapter 119 A Bad Situation

An entire armored detachment was annihilated by the lizardmen in public, and the media with good intentions exposed the identities of the former Navy SEALs of the lizardmen. The Pentagon and the president were overwhelmed by public opinion and demonstrations.

The army's vulnerable performance in the face of the lizardmen made the citizens of New York City lose confidence.

Some citizens began to flee the Big Apple, and the rest of the people, even if they could not leave, subconsciously reduced their outings. The originally prosperous New York City began to show signs of decline.

Although the military knew that the lizardmen were most likely hiding in the sewers, they could do nothing about it.

The sewers in New York City have a history of hundreds of years. After years of repairs and widening, even the original designers would be confused by this intricate underground sewer system.

After a big fight on the ground, all the lizardmen fled to the sewers. The wide and moist sewers made these lizardmen who were biased towards reptiles feel very comfortable.

"Sir, we got it!"

The two lizardmen carefully placed the looted gene editing device in front of Colonel Johnson, and the device was still stained with blood. They had just attacked the laboratory of Columbia University Medical School.

Other lizardmen had installed a 35kw diesel generator and transmission lines. As members of the most elite special forces on the earth, they had received corresponding electrician training, but they didn't expect it to come in handy at this time.

"Now, I have prepared everything you asked for for you. Start making lizard serum, girls."

Colonel Johnson's black scales were as black as obsidian, reflecting the light. There was no emotion in his yellow-brown vertical pupils, staring at Tessa and Gwen.

"What are you going to do after getting the serum? Turn ordinary people into lizardmen and eat them?"

Gwen Stacy looked at Colonel Johnson bravely. She inherited many of her father's characteristics, and bravery was the most dazzling part of them.

"No, we only eat the weak. If they are strong enough, I will give them the qualifications of companions."

Colonel Johnson's throat made a lizard-like hissing sound. The human part of him became less and less, and even his mind gradually shifted towards the alien species. Human morality and laws are no longer worth a penny to him.

Tessa pulled Gwen's hand hard, suggesting that she should not do anything stupid.

"Lizard serum is not a problem. We can probably complete it in two weeks. But after making the lizard serum, I hope you can let us go immediately, otherwise I can't make even one serum for you."

She was paralyzing Colonel Johnson. Tessa believed that Broly and Cade would definitely come to rescue her. As long as she survived, she would be able to wait for them.

"Why does it take two weeks? Colin Selmon clearly said it would only take thirty minutes. Are you trying to trick me?!"

The scales on Colonel Johnson's angry back stood up, and his cold vertical pupils were chilling. The sharp teeth in his mouth seemed to tear Tessa's delicate skin at any time.

Tessa was shocked, and she forced herself to calm down.

"This gene editing device is different from the Osborn Group, and it is much more backward. It takes time for us to get familiar with it, and many key experimental data are left in the Osborn Group. It also takes time to recalculate. Two weeks is the limit."

Colonel Johnson's face showed doubt. He obviously did not completely believe Tessa's words, but there was nothing he could do. Professor Connors and Dr. Rada were both missing, and the only two female high school students in front of him who could produce lizard serum were the two female high school students in front of him.

When the lizard serum was produced, they would be injected with it as soon as possible.

He made up his mind. Compared with humans, lizard people are much easier to control. At least under the influence of evil personalities, there will be no strange persistence. They will surrender under his pressure.

"I will only give you ten days. After ten days, I will see the lizard serum. Why don't I pick one of you to eat."

A helicopter was hovering in the air. This was just one of the huge search teams of S.H.I.E.L.D. SHIELD assembled a fleet of more than 60 helicopters at the fastest speed. These helicopters were crudely installed with airborne mobile radiation search systems.

This military high-power radiation search system can be used for radioactive measurements of alpha, beta, gamma and neutrons, that is, to find exposed radiation sources. SHIELD borrowed it from the chemical defense force and sent it to North Dakota urgently.

SHIELD suspected that the reason why the Lizardmen attacked the missile silo and took away the missiles was for the radiation source inside the nuclear bomb, so they used this batch of search systems to find the nuclear warheads that might have been destroyed.

Peter Parker was in the cabin of the helicopter, with his legs stretched out of the cabin, looking at the desolate grassland passing by quickly below.

The experience during this period was like a dream to him. Six days of dragnet search had passed, and still nothing was found. Even these well-trained SHIELD agents began to become a little slack.

Suddenly, the oscilloscope on the radiation search system began to shake violently, and strong radiation residues were found in a poplar forest below.

The helicopter did not land, but just hovered above the poplar forest.

Soon, several Quinjet fighters appeared nearby, leaving one to monitor in the air, while the others landed directly on the grassland outside the poplar forest.

Everyone wore isolation protective clothing and gas masks to prevent inhalation of radioactive dust. Even Peter Parker and Bob Yeager were no exception.

Although they had superhuman strength, they still could not resist the damage of nuclear radiation.

Everyone was fully armed, wearing heavy bulletproof vests under the protective clothing, and the weapons in their hands were no longer automatic rifles, but shotguns and grenade launchers with stronger stopping power.

"From the sky, the radiation leakage is very serious, and a large area of ​​trees have been killed by radiation, but the radiation concentration detected by the measuring instrument is not too high, and it will not cause such serious radiation pollution."

"Black Widow" Natasha Romanoff said, she suspected that the lizard man absorbed the radiation.

"Everyone be vigilant, we may run into lizard men at any time."

They carefully entered the birch forest and soon found the MK21 warhead that had been torn open. There were traces of teeth biting on the warhead, and the nuclear warhead inside had disappeared.

"Fuck, what kind of monster is this? It ate the nuclear warhead!"

A SHIELD agent couldn't help but curse. A big pit appeared in the center of the original forest. There were traces of high-temperature ablation at the bottom and edge of the pit, and even crystals appeared.

The outline of the pit looked like a lizard man, but the size of this lizard man was too big. Not counting the tail, the body length was more than three meters.

Inside the pit, the radiation concentration suddenly began to soar.

Natasha Romanov's face became very ugly. When attacking the missile silo, the size of this lizard man was definitely not so exaggerated, at most only two meters. Obviously, after eating the nuclear warhead, his size swelled dramatically.

The radiation source is just like his food, and he is still growing!

"This is definitely not a lizard man, what kind of monster is this? Contact the director immediately and let him sound the alarm, let all nuclear power plants and security forces protecting ballistic missiles be vigilant, the monster is very likely to attack again!"
