I'm a party

"Now that our uninvited guests have left, you can tell us the truth." Lu Yifang spoke slowly to the man in a calm tone.

Just now, the man revealed that Francis wanted to attack his beloved, and the fearless Deadpool rushed out of the door in a hurry. At Lu Yifang's subtle signal, except for Peter who followed, he and Katie stayed where they were.

After all, the primary purpose of this trip is to find the secret of the X gene research. Although Deadpool is very important, the treasures of this research institute will definitely help their research.

Frankly speaking, although Francis and his team have adopted many unorthodox methods, they are not comparable to the rigorous institutions founded by Lu Yifang and White Queen in terms of resources and scholars. However, their unscrupulous behavior is beyond the reach of our generation. Lu Yifang's research team still has moral constraints and is very cautious in human experiments; on the other hand, Francis and his team have conducted more than a thousand human experiments, so occasional breakthroughs are to be expected.

"I will tell you all the answers you need, and you only ask for your life. I know what I am doing is not good, but I am just a humble researcher. I am powerless to stop this experiment, and I can't even protect myself. I can only go with the flow." The man lowered his head, his tone full of helplessness.

"Don't worry, if you are willing to help me, not only will I spare your life, but you will also have the opportunity to rebuild your life." Lu Yifang waved his hand and chuckled, and then he finished speaking.

"First of all, who are you?"

"We were originally researchers of the military's 'X Weapon' program. Our superior, Masterrick, borrowed the military's power to build several dark research institutes with the aim of exploring mutants. Unfortunately, Masterrick died suddenly, and the military and the government joined forces to crack down on us. To avoid this disaster, Francis led us to escape and start a new business." The man told the truth.

"It's just as I expected." Lu Yifang nodded slightly, and what he said was consistent with what he knew. Lu Yifang was the key to the joint efforts of the military and political circles to destroy Masterrick. He asked Fury to tell President Obama the truth about the "White House assassination."

In the face of Obama's rage, the powerful military wisely distanced itself from him and, in order to appease the president, cleared all traces of Mastrick to show its stance.

"I have a question. The research of the X weapon project seems to be very different from your current direction." Lu Yifang knew clearly in his heart that most of Masterrick's life's research results belonged to him. Even Masterrick himself had "turned over a new leaf" in his research institute. Lu Yifang knew his research very well.

Born out of hatred and born out of research, Masterrick's lifelong pursuit is to control mutants and use some mutants to control the rest. How could he turn to explore the birth of mutants?

"Indeed, I initially only wanted to sell information about the 'X Weapon' project, but what I got was incomplete, and this research has inherent flaws, so few people are interested." The man nodded. After listening to what Lu Yifang said, he knew that he was an insider.

In fact, Lu Yifang knew much more than he imagined. He had used this information to get money from Hammer. He succeeded at that time not only because of Yuriko's example, but also because of the White Queen's mind control. Francis's information was incomplete, so how could he easily deceive the sponsor?

In short, if this plan is really effective, the military will not easily abandon it. To them, the X weapon plan is just a waste of time.

"How did you get here?" Lu Yifang asked.

"In the beginning, the situation was worrying. We escaped illegally, found it difficult to show up in public, and had no source of money, so we were on the verge of disbanding. In the moment of crisis, Francis suddenly had an idea to transform ordinary people into mutants. We all thought he was crazy. We lacked resources and technology, and this idea was even crazier than the X-weapon plan." The man recounted the past, his face full of surprise.

"It's amazing that they have succeeded in developing a drug that can awaken the X gene."

"How is the conversion effect?" Lu Yifang held the man tightly, his eyes sharp.

"With Francis' special painful stimulation method, the activation rate is about 30% to 40%, and only 30% to 40% of them can use their abilities normally. The rest have become deformed waste in the laboratory. The remaining 10% is brainwashed by Francis and sold to others at a high price to make huge profits."

"The success rate is very low." Lu Yifang looked a little disappointed, but then he was relieved. With this information in hand over to the scientists at the institute, it is not impossible to increase the success rate.

"Those who can use their abilities normally should be fine, right?"

"No. As far as I know, Francis has also tried this method himself, and his reaction speed has been greatly improved, but the price is the loss of touch. Mr. Wade previously gained the ability to heal, but the price was the complete destruction of his face. And Francis's strong man, the Dust Angel, has enhanced his physical fitness and appears to be fine, but my test shows that his mental state is abnormal and his temperament is becoming more and more perverse and irritable." Speaking of this, the man looked at Lu Yifang and Katie, his eyes full of envy. Witnessing the two of them using their powers in the video just now, his heart was filled with mixed feelings.

According to research, 80% of people carry the X gene, but less than one in ten thousand people awaken it naturally. Even if they are forcibly activated, most of them are defective.

The more he studied it, the more envious he became. Natural mutations were close to perfection. Although they were occasionally different from ordinary people, their abilities might get out of control or cause accidents, from an evolutionary perspective, these mutations were mostly beneficial.

"Forget it, the last question is, where did the awakening potion come from?" Lu Yifang didn't believe that Francis could do it alone. If he really had this ability, why would he be in such a predicament today, struggling to survive among the strong.

"Or... there is still one person." The man hesitated for a moment and finally spoke.

"This person is very mysterious. No one except Francis knows him, but I know he is indeed helpful. He provided some information with unique insights that are different from our existing research, but they have broadened the boundaries of cognition. Some of his information is included in the file you just downloaded, and you can check it out."

Lu Yifang would not delve into the man's suggestion in detail. After all, even if he read it, it would be difficult to understand its meaning. However, he was very interested in the man.

"It seems that we still need to capture Francis. With Peter blocking him, Deadpool should not be able to cut him into pieces." Lu Yifang murmured.

"What should we do here?" Katie asked.

"Let the New York police seal off the scene first, and then ask the White Queen to take people to vacate this place. It should not be too much for us X-Men to eliminate the research institute where this kind of people are killing each other." Lu Yifang said righteously. If he was not playing with the book of S.H.I.E.L.D. in his hand, his words would have carried more weight.
