Chapter 33: Serum strengthens the body

After Sienna left, she quickly followed the way she came and found the armed forces that departed from Base 033.

Dr. Zola also chased after the troops. He has already briefly repaired his body with a multi-functional robotic arm in the car, and now he can walk normally.

Dr. Zola was very surprised when he saw Sienna who was alone and covered in injuries, and asked:

"Miss Sienna, how did you do this! Where's Leo? Where's the Winter Soldier?? Where's Ketar???"

Sienna briefly described what happened to Dr. Zola, and then led the large army to the direction of the original battlefield.

However, they searched all over the area, but they didn't find Leo and Bucky, only the broken body of Ketal!

Dr. Zola left to clean up Ketar's body, ready to take it back as a sample for research.

And Sienna took a group of people again and continued to chase the rut left by Leo.

However, the time dragged on for too long, and Leo and the others had already driven the car onto the highway.

Sienna and others chased along the road for a while along the dirt marks left on the wheels, and finally lost the trail of Leo and Bucky at a fork in the road.

Although Sienna was very angry, she could only return disappointed.



On the asphalt road, Bucky the Winter Soldier was driving aimlessly. At this time, Leo was sleeping on the back seat of the car.

They killed Ketal, ran back to the off-road vehicle, and drove away not long after, the bonus effect of the Black Widow character card disappeared from Leo.

The next moment, Leo felt weak and his hands were shaking. As a last resort, Leo asked Bucky to come to the car and lay down in the back of the car to take a rest.

But when he just lay down, he fell asleep in a daze because he was too tired.

I don't know how Bucky chose the road, but the road ahead suddenly became full of potholes. The SUV ran through a small puddle at high speed and jolted violently.

Leo was woken up by surprise, and he threw up at once! When he realized that he was still in the car, he breathed a sigh of relief. He stretched and rubbed his face again.

Closing his eyes and resting for a while, Leo felt his mouth start to dry out. At the same time, extreme hunger spread from his stomach.

Fortunately, before leaving, Leo was fully prepared. He reached out from the rear seat and took out a small bag from the trunk. The bag contained dry food and drinking water prepared by Leo.

Leo ate and drank, and it took a long time to fill his stomach.

After he was full, he moved his body and found that after a good night's sleep, his body's injuries had recovered a lot, and he was relieved.

"Bucky, how long have I slept?"

"It's been almost three hours."

"It's been so long?! You park your car on the side of the road, let's take a break first."

Bucky stopped the car according to his words, and Leo handed him some dry food. He was indeed a little hungry, and he ate in big gulps.

Leo got out of the car, stood on the side of the road, looked around, and asked:

"Bucky, do you know the way? Where are we?"

Bucky chewed something in his mouth and said vaguely:

"After you slept, I tried to go south as much as possible. I passed a few small towns along the way, but to avoid trouble, I didn't talk to anyone and went straight around."

"so?"

"So I don't know where this is...cough!"

Leo angrily threw a water bottle to Bucky, preventing the dry food from choking Bucky to death.

He picked up another kettle and began to take a sip of water.

Leo quietly opened the system panel, glanced at the [Chase and Kill] quest, and found that the quest had been completed. At this time, he really felt relieved and let out a long breath.

Now that the system has prompted the task to be completed, it means that he and Bucky have successfully escaped the pursuit of Hydra.

During the time when Leo was sleeping, the system had already swiped the news of the task settlement, and was waiting for Leo to make a choice.

[The system prompts: The "Chase and Kill" task has been completed. Task evaluation, excellent. 】

[The task is being settled... After the settlement is completed, you can choose one of the following three options as a reward. 】

[1. Super serum strengthens the body (times) (personal expertise). The super serum possessed by Ketal strengthens the body. After being purified of the negative effects, the strengthening ability is also greatly weakened. 】

[2. Berserk (active skill). After activating the skill, for the next 10 minutes, your power will be doubled, but at the same time, you may lose your mind and become indistinguishable. Note 1: The negative effects of this skill can be offset by mental resistance skills. Note 2: After the skill effect ends, you will be in a weak state for 30 minutes. 】

[3. Intermediate combat skills (active skills). You can use your body more proficiently to fight, your fists and feet are your good helpers. 】

Seeing that the task was rated as excellent, Leo nodded with satisfaction. It seems that his original idea was correct, and killing Ketar did increase the mission evaluation.

If he could kill Sienna at the same time, Leo felt that the mission evaluation would be even higher. But Sienna ran too fast, and Leo could only sigh a pity!

After reading all the system prompts, Leo suddenly found that there was no character card in this mission reward, which made him a little disappointed.

However, he was only slightly disappointed, at least there was one reward waiting for him to choose, not nothing.

The task rewards for excellent evaluations are indeed much better than those for qualified ones.

Leo first skipped the **** option 3 that made up the number, and glanced back and forth between 1 and 2.

Finally, because Leo was not satisfied with the debilitating effect of option 2, he chose option 1.

[Super Serum Strengthening Body (time) has been activated and is merging with your body. 】

The cell activity in Leo's body began to increase, the muscle strength and bone density began to increase, he felt full of strength, and the injury on his body was completely healed.

The changes in the body soon ended. Leo closed his eyes and felt his current physical fitness, and found that it was only about 40% of that when he used the Black Widow character card. UU Reading

It seems that the system is not deceiving, saying that the strengthening ability has been greatly weakened, it has directly weakened by more than half!

But Leo was very satisfied with this strengthening effect. Because of the enhancement of his physical fitness, it also brought him other benefits.

Sure enough, after the body was strengthened, the Mechanical Force in his body also became more active, and the upper limit of Mechanical Force was directly increased by about five times.

At the same time, a passive skill is also unlocked.

[Because your overall physical quality meets the requirements, "Mechanical Force Recovery" has been unlocked. 】

[Mechanical force recovery (passive skill). The mechanical force refining method will automatically operate in a low-efficiency mode and can automatically restore the mechanical force. 】

Leo has already experienced this skill when he used the Black Widow character card, and the effect is quite good.

Leo had already selected the mission reward, but Bucky was still eating dry food.

"Bucky, are you full? If you're not full, go to the co-pilot and I'll drive!"

Bucky smiled awkwardly, but still didn't want to drop the food in his hand. He obediently climbed to the co-pilot and continued to deal with the dry food.

"Mr. Erwin, these jerkys are really delicious. You know, most of the time these days, I'm covered in ice and relying on nutrient solution to live. There's a bird in my mouth!"

"You don't need to call me Mr. Erwin in the future, just call me Leo. Don't eat too much jerky, it's bad for your stomach."

Leo started the car, stepped on the accelerator and said to Bucky,

"Bucky, we have now successfully escaped from Hydra. You also have a portable jammer now, which can get rid of the control of the chip, and I have basically fulfilled our promise.

So, what are your plans for the future? "
