Chapter 81:
" I promise I will improve the technology and allow the virus to regenerate physical body that have damages and deformities." Krista's attitude improves when she knows that this project will succeed on her hands.
" There is no need for the superhuman physique similar to super soldier serum, that will just cause you problems if anyone found out that you can make something like that."
" Regrowing limbs and healing properties will gained you fame and wealth from all over the world so it's not worth it if you got targeted by Extremists like terrorist and even the government." Thats just my warning as Krista is already aware of the consequences if something similar to super soldier serum got involved with the wrong hands.
" You showed that you gained the abilities to heal and regrow fingers, are those all you can do or you have the same as super soldier physique?" I got curious if the virus she had gave her more or same powers than Ms. Maya Hansen's Extremist virus.
" Hmm, I don't know yet but there is no heat when in the process of regeneration and healing but maybe in the future as I guess the virus is still young and needed time to advanced and not instantaneous gaining strength, " Her guess is probable as it's a long term project as her mother chose different from Ms. Maya's path.
" Do you also have something to share? Like new powers and techniques?" The topic switch to myself now.
" I will show you." I released a wisp of golden aura from my palm and proceeded to use optic blast in it.
Krista looked intently to my palm as she kept glancing at my eyes amazed on how lasers coming out, I mean this look cool and all but I just focus on my new found technique.
I stopped using my optic blast and clenched my palm. There is no grand explosion or any kinds of heat in my palm.
" What happened? What does it do? Is that all of it?" Three questions continuously heard from Krista.
" My new technique involves using my energy to manipulate it onto my palm to absorb extreme energy, using this, any energy beam or explosion will gather to my palm absorbed into my body, like providing new energy and not just solar energy, I tested it on electricity and kinetic energy from Wakanda" This technique have been created in New Asgard and tested it on some bifrost energy and also using the Wakanda technology as practice when we visited.
" You mean, that new technique allows you to absorb energy beside from solar and assimilate it in your own use? So, you didn't exactly needed yellow sunlight but any kind of sun and even energy from other sources." Krista guess some things but she's actually right.
" I never yet tried other suns but it is not impossible and for now only my left hand can do that.. so I still need practice to allow it throughout my whole body. Instead of breaking right on the spot under the influence of force overload. " This seems similar to Carol Denvers aka Captain Marvel but she has an Alien genes and gained powers from space stones so her circumstances is not far from mine.
I gained this powers from the mind stone so having energy absorption isn't rare as that's how infinity stones acquire powerful energy reserves by absorbing cosmic energy from the universe.
Our talking got interrupted as Lyla called us to have a dinner as the two women finished cooking the dishes.
All kinds of dishes are laid to the table and of course as an Asian in the past and even half now, rice is great pair of any dish. The bountiful dinner is a happy times and we talk a lot while eating, there is no need to hold back because we already told what do we do every time we are gone.
Most of the talks no is Krista's condition about her genetics and physique have change due to her mother's project. Aunt Helen confessed that she knows a little about it when her sister told her some but kept it a secret until Krista said it herself.
" Auntie, do you also want to have superhuman abilities?" Krista hold back to her statements as she is not yet 100 percent confident that this project will succeed. " I mean, I have a plan to continue this project but I guess we can only use it for private issue and I'm still on the basic of regeneration, plus, It will take a long time to complete my project."
Aunt Helen think about something while chewing and asked " you mean, you can inject a serum and a virus help to 'rewire' the brain to allow the body regeneration physical deformities?"
" Yeah, and this will be a medical breakthrough as medicine that can regrow any limb that lost without any harmful side effects." Krista said slowly.
" I'm here to talk to you both about something," the three women look to my direction as Lyla just continued to watch our talks.
" You both also need to be ready and prepared because an alien army will invade again soon and Mr. Stark is already planning to talk to the government on how to get people not to cause to much panic."
" Alien invasion? Like, several years ago at the Manhattan where got invaded by flying giant bugs and robotic aliens?" Aunt Helen panic a little before asking.
I stared at her and said straightforwardly " yes, but those aliens are just a subordinates of someone who will attack soon, so preparation is needed in case a battle reach the metro city where people are living but we will focus the fight on somewhere desolate so the war won't affect normal people."
" I'm telling you both this so to decrease your panic and stress in case you want find us, you can also warn your friends and colleagues close to you to prepare."
I shifted my sight to Lyla as I ask " Lyla, how far can you travel in distance in case there is an emergency?"
" Last time I checked on my recent solo mission was I've traveled from Paris to London when I tracked a son of politician involved in trafficking." Lyla replied.
" How about the duration of time your light can stay formed?"
" For now, I've got three knife light hidden to some corner in the continent and they've been there for almost a month, but the longer the duration needed the less fragments are possible lest I add more light fragments but the time duration will decrease by more than half." Lyla proudly said.
" That much improvement? Last time I thought you only improve on your weapon manipulation, surely you will soon have the title of fastest women alive in the world even talking about distance " I'm amazed by her improvement but since she's seldom with me and she enjoyed doing solo mission to practice…it is still astonishing, yep just gave her loads of compliments.
Lyla only smiled a little to hide her real thoughts but I know she's happy about my compliments as I taught her at the beginning and as my disciple, her thoughts are easy to read just showing our closeness.
Aunt Helen and Krista just looked at us wondering what just happened as earlier I just warned them about alien invasion and now I'm complimenting Lyla.
