Infinite Possession of Beauty

Chapter 242 Space Cosmic Storm

With a curl of his lips, Johnny gave up his plan to talk to Reid again.

This kind of boring guy who is thinking about work all over his head is no wonder his sister will break up with him.

Shaking his head, his topic quickly turned to the giant monster in Chinatown recently.

"...I suspect that it was a biological and chemical weapon secretly developed by the government, but it was accidentally out of control later, so I had to send a member of the Avengers to help. I have a buddy who took the picture at that time. You can imagine one Does such a tall monster appear in Chinatown out of thin air? There must be a conspiracy in it..."

"You have the mind to pay attention to these chaotic news, you might as well concentrate on the next space mission."

Ben frowned, looking at a plausible Johnny, and said patiently.

"This time our task is not easy."

"I know." Johnny shrugged at Uben's eyes and raised his eyebrows as he did his own way: "In order to cooperate with this task, I haven't had a date for more than a week."

"Huh~"

Johnny's silly appearance instantly detonated Ben's suppressed anger for a long time.

Seeing a conflict about to erupt, Susan on the side quickly spoke, calming the atmosphere.

"Johnny, you go get ready first."

"Okay." After a glance with Susan, Johnny shrugged, shaking his head and leaving.

Susan looked at his turned back, and then said to Ben on the side: "Sorry, Ben, you know, Johnny has been this stupid since childhood. But, his nature is not bad, just a bit of his own way. "

"I know."

Because of Susan’s encouragement, the emotions that had originally erupted gradually eased. He took a deep breath to suppress the depression in his heart, and replied with a wry smile: "I was too impulsive." As a friend of Reid, Ben didn't want it. Because of his own influence on Reid's research, anyway, the left and right are just a task.

Ben secretly made up his mind to endure this mission for his friend Reid, and then, whoever loves to do the mission with him will do it. Anyway, he will not come again.

...

In the vastness of the universe, a spacecraft broke through the atmosphere and joined the space station staying in the universe.

This space station is Victor von Dom's private space station, which is dedicated to studying the changes of the stars in the universe, and it is also one of the reasons why Reid would find each other.

With the budget cuts of government departments, if he wants to observe the changes of space storms at close range, he cannot rely on the other side's space station.

"There are still nine hours left before the time of the space storm."

Inside the space station, Reid's emotions were a bit agitated, and immediately he could come into contact with the cosmic storm he had dreamed of.

"To be honest, what is so good about this kind of thing."

Turning his head, looking at the vast universe outside the space station, Johnny said absently.

Compared with this space mission, he prefers the hot girls on earth.

"The storm contains a lot of data. Through the study of cosmic storms, the secrets of genetic genes have been solved. All life phenomena such as the birth, growth, aging, illness, old age, and death of organisms are related to genes. With the message in it, mankind will enter a new era, a world where there will be no more diseases, and a new genetic human being."

"Amazing idea."

Facing the impassioned Reid, Johnny shrugged and poured cold water: "The premise is that your theory is correct."

To be honest, Johnny didn't think that Reid's experiment would be successful.

"My theory is absolutely correct."

In response, Reid made a decisive answer.

...

Here, the space storm is coming.

On the other side, in the lower level of the spacecraft, in the box that no one noticed, a wisp of yellow sand flowed out of it, gradually forming an earth-yellow human form.

"So, is this in outer space?"

Opening his yellow eyes formed by the sand, looking at the surrounding environment, Li Ran, no, the expression of Sand Clone was a little startled.

As a businessman, Victor von Doum naturally cannot conduct space experiments in obscurity.

In fact, as early as the moment he decided to invest in Reed, the major newspapers in New York had already publicized this space mission.

As long as Reid can make any breakthrough progress in the space cosmic storm, then Victor von Doum will gain a lot of prestige and the most important money.Reed, a researcher who is full of experiments, has never discovered how much wealth lies behind his research.

Controlling the sand clone to walk around in the spaceship.

As a human being, being able to walk in outer space is undoubtedly an exciting thing.

However, all of this seems less important than the next plan.

...

"Man, I'll give you a sincere suggestion, that is to tell your good buddies, stop trying to think about getting back together with my sister."

In the hatch of the space station, Johnny spoke while wearing a space suit for Ben who was about to go on a mission to outer space.

"Of course not, it's all just for work."

Although Ben also vaguely sensed that Reid still had some feelings for Susan, but from the perspective of a friend, he naturally couldn't just admit it, and replied unwillingly.

"Look at that guy's eyes on my sister, but you don't want to be what you said, only work."

Thinking of Reid’s retreat in front of Susan before, even Ben didn’t conceal it anymore. He could only helplessly explain: “The last time they broke up, neither of them was as free and easy as they were on the surface. Maybe Susan I still have feelings for Reid."

"Let me give you a brief analysis man." Passing the prepared plant sample to Ben's hand, Johnny nodded and said back: "On one side is the billionaire, the best boyfriend of the year, Victor von Doum. , On the other side is Reid, the stupidest wise man in the world, worth less than a stamp. This is really a difficult choice for people to make a decision."

"Emotion is more than identity."

"So, tell me buddy, if you were my sister, which side would you choose?"

"..."

After a moment of silence, Ben changed the subject abruptly.

"We came to outer space not to discuss these things. Open the hatch and I have to do a mission."

"Listen to your buddy."

Shrugging his shoulders, Johnny immediately returned his attention to the work he was holding. Although he was a little unfocused, he still had a little sense of work.

Pressing the button, the hatch in front of Ben quickly fell, isolating him from the outside.

...

Walking inside the space station, Reid and others, who were focused on space missions, didn't even know.

Inside the space station, an unexpected guest appeared that no one had expected.

In the antique shop, Li Ran focused on controlling the clone and shuttled inside the space station.

Because of the distance, he can clearly feel that the Chakra connection between himself and the clone has become quite weak.

Even with a little carelessness, the clone on the space station will collapse.

Sure enough, relying solely on the power of Sand Clone, it was still a bit too difficult.

He shook his head and gave up the plan to re-use the Sand clone action. With Li Ran's change of thought, [B-level card-Katz] went online.

With the emergence of the power of the ultimate creature, the clone originally condensed by the yellow sand rapidly changed and became a tall, long-haired man.

Twisting his neck, [Katz] turned his head to see the environment outside the space station through his vision comparable to that of an astronomical telescope. There was a cold smile on his handsome and non-human face: "Is the universe? Annoying place."

...

"Beep, beep, warning, warning..."

"There is still 9 minutes and 34 seconds before the critical point of the space storm."

In the experimental control room of the space station, Reid was brought back to his mind by the constantly ringing warnings. He looked at the time told by the computer, and his original indifferent expression suddenly became flustered.

"How is it possible! Why is there such a serious deviation in the time of the cosmic storm!"

Faced with the time reported by the computer, Reid murmured, "Isn't there there should be seven hours of preparation time?"

The speed of the cosmic storm came earlier than the time Reid had calculated. Looking at the decreasing time, the expression on Reid's face became hesitant, but it quickly became firm again.

"The speed of the cosmic storm has increased!"

Coming to the central control room, Reid said to Susan and Victor who were there: "If we follow the current speed, we will encounter a cosmic storm in a few minutes instead of the hours we originally expected. Victor, we must terminate this mission. Encountering a cosmic storm head-on is enough to kill us."

Although Reid's heart hoped that the outer space program would succeed this time more than anyone else, he still had to make the decision to give up in the face of the crisis that was about to come.

"Calm down, Reid."

Glancing at Susan, Victor clearly disagreed with Reid’s decision to terminate the mission. For this space mission, he invested a lot of money and made publicity. If he ended the experiment dingyly and went back, It is conceivable that his career will be hit hard.

"We can't give up all because of such a small situation, just close the protective cover."

The protective cover, this is the extraterrestrial technology that Victor von Doum obtained from the government through various relationships. He paid a huge cost for this, but it also made this outer space mission safer.After all, he came to outer space to gain fame and earn capital, not to die.

"However, Ben is still on the mission outside."

"Then call him back."

Although Reid was the planner of this flight experiment, Victor was the actual leader of the space station. Faced with Victor’s categorical reply, Reid had to give up the idea of ​​persuading the other party to terminate the mission and immediately began to save himself. Buddy, Ben.

"Victor, Reid is right, we only have six minutes left."

Susan's fingers quickly tapped on the keyboard, and it quickly confirmed that the result Reid had told was not wrong.

"What are you doing, Victor!"

Looking up, watching the approaching cosmic storm, Victor’s original indifferent expression began to change. He silently pushed Susan away from the computer, and pressed the start button of the protective cover without hesitation. .

"Reid and them are still outside, you will kill them if you do."

"However, the protective shield can at least save us."

"No, just save you."

Susan looked at her boyfriend who seemed to be alone, gritted her teeth and turned and ran to the central control room.

She couldn't just watch as other people were isolated outside the protective shield. There was not only Reid but also her brother Johnny.

"You can't do anything even if you go out!"

"But, at least I tried."

Seeing Susan turning away from the back, the expression on Victor's face struggled, but in the end he chose to stay in the control room.

In the control room, the protective cover is activated, and the blue energy cover wraps the entire central control room.

In the next second, a red space cosmic storm swept across the space station.

The violent cosmic ray radiation instantly swept through the bodies of everyone in the spacecraft, including Victor in the central control room.

Bang--

...

"Victor, I want to congratulate you."

In the meeting room, shareholders raised the documents in their hands, looked at Victor on the opposite side, and said coldly: "The bank wants to congratulate you. The sharpest decline since the Great Depression, the loss is comparable to that of Stark. The decline occurred when the industry closed the military-industrial sector. Now, even if you give me your stock, I won’t want it unless you are the next Tony Stark, but obviously, you are not..."

"You must save it all, Victor von Dom, or we will have to remove it."

Facing the aggressive attitude of board shareholders, Victor's expression is not very good.

Although he and Reid's team successfully returned from outer space, they were fortunate not to be killed by the sweeping space storm.

However, the accident at the space station also caused a huge loss to Victor's hard-earned reputation.Today, Reid and his party are still lying in the hospital because of the space storm. Although he was not affected under the protection of the protective cover, he suffered a huge blow in his early career.

"However, I am not without gain."

After a moment of silence, Victor spoke with difficulty and retorted to everyone on the board.

"You mean that meteorite?"

A disdainful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. One of the board shareholders who had not dealt with Victor said with a cold face: "Victor, do you really think that a meteorite that can be seen everywhere in space can save you. Is the loss caused by the company?"

"One week, I will give you another week, if you can't come up with any rescue plan, don't blame me for not being sympathetic, Victor."

After that, the members of the board of directors left the meeting room one by one.

Only Victor was left alone, silent.

Zizi~

Victor twitched the corners of his mouth, and the next moment, the lights in the meeting room flickered.
