Chapter 3113 "Romantic" Wedding Season (Thirty-three)
Schiller had only seen one kind of otter, which was the Asian small-clawed otter he saw in a zoo in Asia in his previous life. It was very cute, but the one in front of him was obviously not. It was much larger than the Asian small-clawed otter.
Her fur is also much longer than that of a normal otter, and is a mixture of dark brown and light brown. If you weren't able to see the mechanical structure inside her body through her skin, you would think she was just an ordinary otter.
But there is no doubt that this guy is most likely Rocket Raccoon's old lover Leila, because the mechanical structure in her body is very similar to Rocket Raccoon, and it can be seen at a glance that they are from the same laboratory.
In the original book, Leila was actually a liar. She cheated Rocket several times, including cheating him of his money, sex and feelings. But even so, Rocket still had some feelings for her.
Schiller learned from Rocket Raccoon in their universe that although Lyla in this universe could not be called a good person... a good otter, and had also deceived Rocket, but she seemed to have a reason for doing so, and Rocket could not even say that he still had feelings for her, it was simply a passionate affair.
There must be a reason why this otter appears here. The worst possible scenario is that she is the poisoner. But if we just hand this guy over to the mutants, what if Magneto gets angry and kills her to silence her? Wouldn't Rocket Raccoon be heartbroken?
Schiller also felt that there must be another hidden story behind this. Schiller learned from Rocket Raccoon that Leila was a very shrewd otter and a very powerful bounty hunter. She would not wade into the muddy water of mutants for no reason.
What's the difference between doing this and sneaking into Asgard and giving Odin a slap? At least Odin could leave her body intact, but Magneto doesn't even have martial ethics. He has to be alive to make money.
Schiller studied the otter's body structure and found that she was not injured, which means that she might not be lying here accidentally, but intentionally, because if even Schiller could not detect her vital signs, the mutants might not be able to find her, and this might be her means of self-protection.
But since Schiller had discovered it, he couldn't just ignore it. He couldn't just hand it over to the mutants. So he could bring it back to Earth and give it to Rocket, right? Maybe he could use their old friendship to figure out what was going on.
Schiller carefully checked the physical condition of the otter Leila to make sure that she was not carrying anything strange, and then used the gray mist to take her through the dimensional channel and returned to the Temple of Eternity.
At this time, Doctor Strange had finished talking with Eternity. Schiller was not very interested in what they talked about, and Doctor Strange did not intend to say anything. However, it seemed that building the Dream Management Bureau required him to stay in this universe for a while, so he returned to Earth with Schiller.
After returning to Earth, the group has returned to Schiller's farm. Some of them caught up on their sleep, some went to play golf, and some went fishing. Schiller found Rocket Raccoon running wildly with Helen on the ridge of the field.
He called Rocket Raccoon aside, took out the unresponsive otter Lyla, placed it in front of Rocket Raccoon, and told Rocket where he found Lyla.
He thought Rocket Raccoon would be very shocked, but Rocket was a little surprised, but had more of a thoughtful expression.
"You don't know anything in advance, do you?" Schiller asked.
Rocket shook his head and said, "No, it's just that some time ago, Leila suddenly sent me a message..."
"I sent you a message, so you two have been in touch? How did you get in touch with each other?"
"Shake the galaxy." Rocket Raccoon looked at Schiller as if he were a primitive man. He said, "We happened to be on a mission in the same galaxy that day and were relatively close to each other, so we shook each other out."
Schiller was a little speechless. Such a coincidental reunion was a very romantic love story, but never mind why they shook each other at that time.
"And you two were dating online?"
"It's not really an online romance." Rocket Raccoon shook his head and said, "We just chat occasionally. I haven't forgotten what she did to me."
"So what message did she send you at that time?"
Rocket Raccoon sighed and said, "You may not know this, but there are all kinds of races in the world, but animals are the lowest class of races. I was rarely bullied because I became a little girl's pet, and that little girl had a special identity. The attending doctor I met was also very good. I have always been very grateful to them."
"Leila is different. She was an experimental animal in the same batch as me, but something went wrong right after the experiment was completed. She scratched the medical staff and was locked up for a long time. After she came out, she was not welcomed by others and most of the time she could only pick up garbage to eat."
"My little master is very kind. Seeing her pitiful, she often secretly threw food to her. Later, she was discovered and the attending doctor strictly forbade her to approach this dangerous otter. So she asked me to secretly bring food to Laila."
"Wait, isn't she a mechanical otter? She needs to eat too?"
"Don't I need to eat too? Although we can go longer without food than humans, and can also charge or refuel directly, we also have digestive organs in our bodies, and we can replenish energy through ordinary food of carbon-based organisms."
"Although the efficiency of digesting food is the lowest, food is actually the easiest to get. If she can't even get food, where can she get a higher-level energy source?"
Schiller thought about it and agreed. No one designing a robot would reserve only one charging port. They would try to make it a hybrid. Many of the robots created by Stark can not only eat, but also extract energy by swallowing rocks in extremely dangerous situations. Although the efficiency is low, with more energy, they may be able to escape danger.
"and then?"
"And then Half World was invaded."
"Then Leila should be happy, right?"
"If there were only her enemies here, she would be very happy, but my little master is also dead. It seems that a doctor who was very kind to her was also killed by a gun. Since the destruction of the half world, she has always wanted revenge. She became a bounty hunter to make money while looking for clues."
"Don't you want to avenge your little master?"
Rocket Raccoon sighed and said, "Although I can't be sure, it's possible that my little master is a descendant of the nobility of the old Skrull Empire, and came to the mental hospital of Half World for some reason."
Schiller recalled the history of the Skrull Empire and felt that some of the reasons for this were not very good.
As we all know, the Old Skrull Empire is a bit similar to the Soviet Union in the universe. They also had nobles at a certain period in history, but later they disappeared. It is possible that Rocket Raccoon's little master ended up in a mental hospital at that time.
Rocket Raccoon continued, "Since she was able to survive and live well in Half World, it means that someone must have been protecting her. But she died later, which means that the person who attacked Half World Asylum must be more powerful than the person behind her."
"It's useless to rely on momentary enthusiasm to deal with such a person. Even if I know who he is, how can I break through the numerous obstacles and kill the king? It's better to wait for an opportunity. Everyone will disappear one day like the nobles."
Although he knew that Rocket Raccoon's experience was legendary, Schiller still felt a little sad.
Everything that happened in the Half World Mental Hospital heralded the end of one era of the three great empires and the beginning of another. This seemingly ordinary raccoon and his master were just a fragment of history left behind after a catastrophe.
"Will Leila say she's going to get revenge?"
"That's not the case. The tragedy in Half World should have nothing to do with mutants, but she said she wanted to do something that would be helpful for revenge."
"Something useful?"
"That means the other party might offer a very high price." Rocket Raccoon said, "Lyla needs a lot of money, because a lot of intelligence equipment and resources can only be bought with money, so she often takes on some very dangerous jobs, but I didn't expect that she would dare to mess with mutants."
"I'm afraid it's because she's sure she won't be discovered."
"Didn't you find out?" Rocket Raccoon walked up to Leila, turned her over, and groped her belly.
"What are you doing? Although you two are small animals, there is a difference between male and female. Although she is a suspect, if you act like a hooligan, I will also..."
Rocket rolled his eyes and said, "What about you? Sue me for molestation? Come on, how can a mechanical animal have reproductive ability?"
Suddenly, Rocket Raccoon's hand stopped, and then he pressed down on Leila's right abdomen. After a slight click, Leila seemed to be gradually recovering her breathing.
This is the hibernation function of the mechanical animals modified by Half World. They will seal up some modified animals that are not needed and restart them when they are needed. The dormant mechanical animals have almost no signs of life, just like dead objects. They can only be resumed by being activated by other people.
"Then how did Leila know that someone would reboot her?"
"Why do you think she messaged me before she left?"
Schiller sighed, he was really fed up with these love-brained people.
Leila woke up slowly. When she saw Rocket, she was relieved, but when she saw Schiller, she became obviously alert.
"Don't be nervous, you haven't been caught by the mutants." Rocket squatted beside him and shook his tail and said, "But being caught by Schiller is much more terrifying than being caught by mutants."
"What do you mean? Rocket, where am I now?"
"You are on Earth."
"Earth?! Why am I on Earth?!!"
"This Doctor Schiller found you on a planet in the Andromeda Galaxy. For my sake, he didn't hand you over directly to the mutants, but brought you back to me."
Leila was obviously stunned for a moment, shook her beard, and then collapsed to the ground as if she was completely relieved.
"Honestly, Leila, what happened to you? Why did you appear in the Andromeda Galaxy at this time? Is the biological riot in the Andromeda Galaxy related to you?"
"A biological riot occurred in the Andromeda Galaxy?" Leila asked in surprise, and then whispered: "Didn't he say there wouldn't be any big commotion?"
"Who are you talking about?"
"My employer."
"What does your employer hire you for?" Rocket Raccoon asked. Before Lyra could answer, Rocket said directly: "Don't tell me about confidentiality agreements. You have definitely been tricked by him this time. Magneto and Professor X are looking for you all over the galaxy. If you don't get it, you are dead."
Leila was a little stunned. She shook her head and said, "Impossible."
"Why not? You go to someone's house and poison them..."
"I didn't poison them." Leila suddenly sat up, looked Rocket in the eye and said, "That thing is indeed a virus, but it's not meant to poison them."
"What's that for?"
"To build antibodies." Leila said, "It's a vaccine, so that mutants can produce antibodies after they come into contact with them, to help them fight against the disaster that follows."
"What?!" Rocket Raccoon said in disbelief, "Are you crazy? Is this how your employer lied to you?!"
"Have you forgotten how much I learned from that biologist? Do you think he can deceive me?"
Now it was Rocket Raccoon's turn to be stunned. After a while, he looked up at Schiller and said, "Remember what I said? In the Half World Mental Hospital, besides my little master, there is another doctor who is very kind to Leila. He is a famous biologist. He taught Leila this knowledge. Leila should not be talking nonsense."
Schiller confirmed his guess that there was indeed something wrong with the poisoning this time. He looked at Leila and asked, "Did your employer hire you to help the mutants?"
"Yes, because someone wants to deal with mutants."
"Who?"
"The three empires." Leila looked around and lowered her voice and said, "You should be aware of the situation in the universe. The three empires will not allow mutants to expand. I don't know what means they have prepared, but I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with."
"Who exactly is your employer?" Rocket asked, frowning.
"You should know him better than I do. He said his name is Herbert Windham, codenamed 'Supreme Evolution'."
Batman is really bad. I even wonder if there is something wrong with my dice.
