Chapter 1967: The Objective of Comparative Tests

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Riot had been left alive to be used as a test subject.
For example, it wasn’t worth feeding this sort of hazardous material to the other symbiotes.
It didn’t matter if Riot didn’t cooperate. In any case, the other symbiotes wouldn’t mind combining with Skye.
After numerous tests on Riot, Luke was very certain that all the parasites in its body were digested as protein.
Only then did he go deep into the Pacific Ocean to find his sleeping mount, Brother Octopus.!!
Brother Octopus didn’t feel well after remaining awake for a long period of time.
After enough training, Luke announced that he would give it a break and wouldn’t wake it up unless necessary.
If this were a game, there would absolutely have been +10 +10 +10 loyalty points popping up above Brother Octopus’s head.
Naturally, Luke wasn’t here for Brother Octopus, but for Shriek.
Brother Octopus liked sleeping, but not Shriek.
However, it could crawl into other creatures to play when Brother Octopus was asleep.
Luke didn’t forbid Shriek from doing so, but just told it not to look for eye-catching creatures, and never humans.
After the symbiosis was over, the creatures had to be killed. There couldn’t be any hidden dangers.
Thus, Shriek would control the sea creature to swim back to be eaten by the sleeping Brother Octopus.
Gold Nugget could help Dollar eat, and Shriek could also help Brother Octopus eat – too easy.
Hearing that Luke wanted to take it out on a mission, Shriek was so excited that it almost woke up Brother Octopus.
Luke was quick and had Shriek move to him first before he used Mental Communication to calm the baby mount down.
If everything went according to plan, Brother Octopus would be able to sleep like this for three to five years — that was the time they had agreed on.
While Luke had been training Brother Octopus, Shriek had also gotten corresponding training.
It also knew the benefits of combining with the Level 2 clone.
Luke, who had a lot of credit points, didn’t mind converting 10 to 20 points of Elementary Self-Healing energy every day for Shriek to eat.
In fact, Luke consumed 100 credit points every day to cultivate the Kunlun Chi Refining Technique for the sake of increasing his basic stats every two to three years.
This ‘mission reward’ for Shriek was nothing more than chump change.
After the symbiosis, Luke gave Shriek its ‘reward’ for today and explained the treatment process. Then, he used the special hibernation box to send Shriek to Space 2’s isolation treatment room.
He canceled the hibernation function and let Shriek out. In front of it was Skye, who was already prepared for treatment.
Shriek covered Skye’s head without hesitation and quickly activated the complete symbiotic form.
Skye turned yellow.
Luke waited for a moment before he asked, “Is she completely clean?”
Shriek said, “Hm… She should be. There was too little of that thing, I barely had a taste.”
Luke said, “Do another check. I’ll do the same here.”
Shriek: “Yes, Boss.”
Compared with the naive Brother Octopus, Shriek was much more shrewd.
It had already started calling Luke Boss during its previous training.
Of course, it was implying that “as long as there are benefits, I’ll follow you.”
Luke didn’t care.
The only symbiote he trusted was the dog head at home. The rest were just tools, thugs and temp workers.
For Luke, it was easier to kill those he wasn’t as close to if they betrayed him.
A moment later, after Shriek and Luke confirmed that everything was fine, he had Shriek cancel the symbiosis and leave Skye’s body to return to the hibernation box.
A shocked Skye appeared. She turned around and looked at the hibernation box, and subconsciously stepped back.
Luke used Mental Communication to calm her down, and he examined her a third time.
She hadn’t lost her memory under Werner’s control, and her mindset hadn’t changed much. The only difference was that she followed Werner’s orders unconditionally.
At that time, Luke’s Pheromone Control had been completely useless.
Now, he felt his abilities working again.
After chatting with Skye in Space 2 for a while and making sure that everything was fine, Luke injected her with a paralysis dart.
Seeing Skye instantly close, Luke finally nodded in satisfaction. “The paralysis drug has taken effect. The last test is over.”
Then, he ‘extracted’ Skye in New York, and told her what happened on the yacht.
He was doing this because he wasn’t sure if Skye had leaked information about the Bat Squad to Werner.
He had Skye switch to a different face; it was safer for her to be in a different environment for the time being.
To put it simply, Skye was still under observation.
Luke didn’t explain how she had been cured. He just said that she had been sent to a secret lab owned by the bigshot, and that he had accompanied her the entire time to ensure her safety.
Then, Luke asked Skye in detail about when she had been controlled.
At that point, the usually tough girl started to look pitiful.
Luke could only comfort her.
Skye’s emotions were in a mess. Even though Mental Resistance had already been used on her, being controlled like a doll was simply a nightmare.
It would be fine if it were an ordinary person, since there were too many things in life that they couldn’t control – they weren’t that arrogant.
But how did a superhero react when they were controlled? There was Jessica Jones, who had experienced a mental breakdown because of Kilgrave, and was extremely resistant to becoming a superhero, and there was Tony, who had been traumatized by the little witch.
They had extraordinary intelligence and abilities.
They had been restrained.
In the end, they were manipulated and played. One could imagine their turbulent emotions.
Why wasn’t anyone from the Bat Squad or the Avengers looking for the Joker?
This was partly because of the hints from Knight and Tony, but subconsciously, nobody wanted to touch this opponent who played mind games.
It could be said that Luke was one of the few superheroes who wasn’t afraid of enemies like these.
Firstly, the system protected his soul, so the enemy couldn’t control him.
Secondly, if he used his clones to separate himself from his superhero aliases, the enemy wouldn’t be able to find his family.
Thus, when Skye cried in his arms and stammered out the details of being controlled, Luke was still very calm as he quickly analyzed the abilities of this ‘god.’
Luke wasn’t angry, he really wasn’t.
He had never been angry at an enemy whose ashes were destined to be scattered.
If Skye felt disgusted, he would make the source of her disgust disappear completely.
Across the Pacific Ocean, with firsthand information from Skye, Big Dipper stormed Afterlife.
Afterlife, which had lost its main force of awakened Inhumans, was quickly taken down by Big Dipper with various non-lethal weapons.
Big Dipper, who was on a rampage, put everyone, including Jiaying, into ‘body bags,’ and threw them onto the Quinjet.
Luke believed that with so many Inhumans to do ‘comparative tests’ on, he would be able to analyze most of the effects of Werner’s abilities.
