Chapter 316 Respecting the Losers
"Hello there!"
It was freshman year of college.
Ben goes to college, and his roommate is a thin-looking science guy.
"I want to build a spaceship for interstellar travel in the future." The freshman named Reed Richards spoke out his grand life goals during the chat between the two.
"If you do it, I will be your driver." That's how I answered at the time.
……
"I know this is your dream, but the protection of the spacecraft is probably not enough to resist the radiation of cosmic rays."
When Reed decides to take the risk of flying before the government withdraws funding, Ben warns his buddies.
"Believe me, Ben, after my calculations, the spacecraft's protection is sufficient to resist normal cosmic rays." Reed insisted, "This is our last chance."
……
"Damn! The intensity of this cosmic ray far exceeds the normal level!"
Watching the cosmic rays gushing out.
Ben gritted his teeth, and in the last moments before losing consciousness, set the return procedure of the spacecraft.
……
"My God!"
"What monster is this!"
People fled in panic.
Ben looked down at his rough hands.
He angrily punched the street lamp beside him.
"Crack!" The street lamp snapped and landed on the road.
The sound of sudden brakes, the sound of horns, and the sound of shouting and cursing.
He lowered his wide hat brim, turned and ran quickly into the dark alley.
……
inside the hospital.
Reid opened his eyes with difficulty.
He looked at the various instruments connected to himself.
On the table not far away seemed to be his own medical records.
He sat up, trying to stretch his arms to reach the medical records on the table.
The distance is a little too far.
The next moment, he stared dumbfounded at the stretch of his arm.
The medical records fell to the floor.
He looked at his hands in shock.
"Mr. Richards." A one-eyed black man stood at the door of the ward and knocked lightly on the door.
Reed watched the visitor warily.
"Let me introduce myself, my name is Nick Fury." The visitor said, "I used to work with your father."
Reed frowned.
"Maybe, you want to talk more about your current situation?" Fury looked at Reed's expression, and then handed him a document.
Reed eagerly opened the file, and at the same time he asked eagerly, "What about the others?"
"Their words..." Fury thought for a while, and said, "In a good direction, they are all the same as you, and their lives are not in danger, but maybe it is bad, or it may be better..."
"They also mutated?" Reed immediately understood Fury's words.
"Yes, everything is written in it." Fury signaled Reed to continue reading.
Reed hurriedly turned back a few pages until the end.
"Where's Ben's?" He didn't read carefully, but raised his head and asked urgently.
Fury pursed his lips, and then slowly took out another document.
……
Ben, who was driven out mercilessly by his family, stood at the intersection blankly.
He doesn't know where he should go.
"Ben!" Behind him, someone called out his name.
Ben turned his head and saw a familiar face.
"Reed..." Ben muttered the other person's name in a low voice.
Immediately afterwards, a wave of anger surged into his heart.
"I told you! It's not safe!" he growled.
"I understand, now, Ben, calm down, go back with me, and I will figure out a way." Reed tried to appease the other party.
"Go back with you? You figure out what to do?" Ben laughed. "Look at you! It's like nothing happened? And me? I became this... such a... thing (The Thing )!"
"Calm down, Ben, it won't do anyone any good." Reed said carefully.
"Calm?" Ben snarled, "When people say 'monster' to you and run away in a panic like I'm going to kill them, when I get dumped by people I know, you tell me, calm?"
After speaking, Ben ignored Reed, he turned around and drove away the parked vehicles on the side of the road, and ran away.
"It looks like your plan failed, the big guy is disobedient."
"Wait, Johnny, come back!" Seeing Johnny catch up with him, Reed shouted in shock.
"Hey!" Johnny ignored Reed at all, he raised his hand and threw a ball of fire at Ben.
The hat is set on fire.
Ben turned around slowly, took off the burning hat, threw it on the ground, and stomped it out.
"Wow, you look..." Before Johnny finished speaking, Ben rushed in front of him at an astonishing speed, knocking him flying with a punch.
Crashing another car, Johnny groans and stands up again.
"Oh, it really hurts." His hands lit up with flames, "If you want to fight, I'm happy to accompany you."
……
Reid sat on the ground dejectedly.
This is a bar that was affected by their fight just now.
He looked at the shards of glass that shattered on the ground, his eyes dull.
He stretched out his hand to randomly find a bottle from behind the bar, and poured it into his mouth.
He has never been very fond of alcohol.
He had tried some in college, but he hated the feeling of being paralyzed by alcohol, which would take away the speed of thought he had always been so proud of.
But now, he felt that he really needed to stop himself from thinking.
"Ha, it looks like you all got something different." After Ben was stopped by himself, he looked at Susan who also used his ability to stop Johnny, and he said, "Obviously, you all got something Great stuff."
Looking into the eyes of his old friend, Reed had no way to continue to restrain the other party's actions anyway.
He slowly withdrew his hands and watched Ben disappear around the corner.
Throw the empty bottle in your hand and watch it smash to pieces.
Reed's chest heaved, and he opened his mouth to scream.
However, he couldn't cry out.
He wanted to vent his emotions wantonly, but his body couldn't do it.
Even though alcohol paralyzed his mind, his body still seemed to stick to his usual habits.
He laughed, laughed, and tears rolled down his cheeks.
It seemed that only tears could penetrate his bound body.
He reached out and took another bottle.
"I thought you were gone." Someone sat down beside him, Reed did not turn his head, but raised his head and took another sip, "I am a loser."
As he spoke, he laughed again: "If you want to persuade me to stop, I don't think I will listen to you now."
To his surprise, the man sitting next to him did not intend to persuade him.
"I don't want to get up, get me a bottle."
Reed turned his head, and he looked at Colt suspiciously.
"Help me get a bottle, I think it's not difficult for you." Colt looked at the broken glass on the ground and repeated.
Reed handed him a bottle.
Colt took it and touched him.
"To the loser."
In order to sort out the next big event, we will update it today
