The villain also has spring 2

Chapter 2049, Section 2.47: The Best Experimental Subject
This telepathic connection doesn't originate from the stars in his Omega universe, but rather from a bond formed on a plot level.

That's right, it's just at the plot level. It didn't trigger any higher-level Sanctuary (Shattered) rules.

Then the problem becomes simple.

The plot-level bond between the newly born Hydra Lady and Wu Chen, whom she has never met, may be due to genetic memories.

"Genetic memory" is a relatively new concept. It refers to the possibility that genes may possess some form of "memory" ability, enabling them to pass on information about past experiences to their offspring.

However, it is important to clarify that the exact mechanism and existence of genetic memory remain controversial in the scientific community. In fact, genetic memory is not memory storage in the traditional sense, but rather refers to the process by which an organism transmits environmental adaptive information to its offspring through epigenetic mechanisms (such as DNA methylation and histone modification). This transmission does not alter the DNA sequence, but rather regulates gene expression through chemical modifications.

For example, the famous "nematode experiment": after parent nematodes were fed a high-fat diet, their offspring still exhibited a fat accumulation phenotype even without exposure to a high-fat diet; this effect was mediated by histone modifications. Another frequently cited example is research on hydra. Hydra are simple multicellular organisms with regenerative capabilities. When a part of a hydra's body is removed, it can regrow the lost part. Interestingly, if hydra are trained to perform a certain behavior before regeneration, such as through conditioned reflexes to light or electric shock, then after regeneration, even if the newly grown body part was not present at the time of training, they can still exhibit the previously learned behavior. This phenomenon is considered a form of genetic memory because the cells in the regeneration process originate from untrained original cells, but the new cells seem to "remember" the previous training.

This suggests that genetic memory might offer a new shortcut for species evolution. For example, those who have experienced harsh winters and famines are more resistant to cold and hunger than those who haven't. This cannot be explained by natural selection or genetic mutation. Rather, it suggests that genes have acquired a memory of new genes in response to environmental changes, enabling them to be passed on.

In other words, the "mutant gene" originating from the female mutant Ophelia Salgistan transcribed some form of "genetic memory" to the newly born Hydra Lady Irina.

"Irina?" Dr. Lizard closely monitored the new mutant's various physiological indicators.

"I'm fine." As the female mutant gently opened her eyes, her golden snake-like pupils quickly disappeared: "Who are you?"

"I am Dr. Kurt Connors..." Dr. Lizard began to speak eloquently, reciting his prepared remarks.

This plot development, which lacks any foreshadowing or build-up, is fraught with dramatic uncertainty. Simply put, the crucial plot point where the Chen brothers kidnap Irina and then, without her consent, perform a skin graft to transform her into a mutant, carries a high risk of spiraling out of control.

Therefore, Dr. Lizard will definitely use gene editing technology to make "precise modifications" to reduce the risk of getting out of control.

Sure enough, after the newly born "Mrs. Hydra" listened quietly to his entire story, especially after accepting the high-sounding reason that "the sacrifices made were for the well-being of all mankind," Dr. Lizard successfully obtained moral immunity as a "mutant party involved."

"Doctor, do you think I can stay young forever?" This is one of the main concerns of the newly reborn "Hydra Lady" Irina.

“Of course,” Dr. Lizard said truthfully, “through 'molting.' And the vital signs of superhumans. Enhanced senses and unique abilities.”

"What do I need to do for 'all mankind'?" asked the newly born "Hydra Lady" Irina, getting to the heart of the matter.

"We need..." After a slight pause, Dr. Lizard finally revealed his true feelings: "To form the Viper Gang to fight against the Vampire Queen."

Seeing the Chen brothers, who were secretly controlling the survivor camp behind her, remain motionless, the newly reborn "Hydra Lady" Irina smiled seductively: "It seems you know many Mayan secrets, Doctor." In fact, as a member of the survivor camp at the bottom of the Mayan pyramid, and a former highly trained Soviet intelligence officer, the newly reborn "Hydra Lady" Irina couldn't possibly have been secretly gathering information about the Mayan pyramid and trying to uncover the secrets hidden behind it. This was also why the Lizard Doctor was certain he could preemptively transform her into a mutant. She must have sensed the danger as well.

From the perspective of an intelligence officer's special status, everything Dr. Lizard did was undoubtedly a positive "gift of ability" that required a return.

Simply put, since I've bestowed upon you extraordinary abilities beyond those of ordinary people, I must obtain a commensurate return in return. Until such a return is received, both parties will strive to maintain a good cooperative relationship. This is practically a natural alliance.

"Fortunately, we are immune to the 'vampire virus,'" Dr. Lizard added, "both psychologically and physiologically."

This implies that both of them are mutants and possess mutant abilities to fight vampires.

“Because even without transforming into a vampire, I can remain forever young and gain power as strong as a vampire.” The newly reborn “Hydra Lady” Irina immediately understood the meaning of these words.

"Moreover, there's no need for lifelong blood plasma dependence, and no need to worry about the dangers of being burned by sunlight," Dr. Lizard mentioned two compelling key points.

“Alright.” The newly formed “Hydra Lady” Irina had no reason to object: “I agree to form the Viper Gang to fight against the Vampire Queen.”

"We're sure to have a pleasant working relationship." Dr. Lizard secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"So, Doctor, where should we begin?" asked the newly minted "Hydra Lady" Irina with a smile.

“Let’s start with the ‘Python Queen’.” With that, Dr. Lizard quickly entered another encrypted command, and the missing experimental subject, nicknamed the “Python Queen,” finally came to the fore.

Princess Python is a Marvel supervillain. Originally a founding member of the Circus of Crime, she later joined the Viper Gang. She possesses the ability to tame snakes, controlling swarms of highly venomous snakes such as cobras and rattlesnakes to attack targets. She is equipped with a stun gun capable of releasing 1000 volts of electricity and gear that releases deadly venom upon contact; however, she does not possess superpowers herself.

It is obvious that the "new Viper Gang" that Dr. Lizard painstakingly created in the timeline of the Furlong Temple Tower's isotope battle royale will not have the same choice for the Python Queen as in the original Marvel storyline.

Sure enough, as a hibernation chamber slowly opened, Dr. Lizard's secret treasured subject, the Python Queen's best experimental subject, was finally revealed.

Lady Sylvia Marsh, the immortal priestess of Dionin, the serpent god, from The Lair of the White Worm.

The real-world actress who plays the role is Western Hollywood actress Amanda Donohoe.

Whether it's her supernatural ability to maintain eternal youth, her venomous fangs capable of infecting and transforming serpent demons, or her unparalleled allure, Lady Sylvia Marsh is the perfect candidate for Queen of the Serpents.

The story goes that a young archaeologist, while staying at the farm of his girlfriend Mary, unearthed a snake-like skull. The farm was formerly a monastery, built in 1066 by William the Conqueror and recorded in the Doomsday Book of 1086. The farm was rumored to be an ominous place, and Mary's parents had mysteriously disappeared years ago. Shortly after the snake bone was unearthed, the mysterious mistress of a nearby luxurious estate rushed back. It turned out she was a serpent demon in disguise, who had captured Mary's sister, Eve, intending to offer her to an ancient serpent god lurking underground. During the offering ceremony, everyone arrived just in time, engaging the serpent demon in a fierce battle…
