Chapter 93 Super Soldier Project
Even though Dr. Abraham Erskine and Senator Brandt did not say it directly, Louis guessed that this so-called special plan was the Super Soldier Project. It seems that there is still some time before Captain America's birth. Louis was curious about why he found himself? He was just a pilot and did not know about research, unless... he was studied by scientists?
"Can I know what kind of plan it is?" Louis didn't think this question was strange. It's normal to understand the work content and work environment before changing to a new job?
However, Senator Brandt waved his hand: "Sorry, this is a confidentiality plan. You can't disclose any information to you until you decide to join."
Louis nodded, not seeming to be overly entangled on this issue, as if to make Louis feel at ease. Brandt specifically emphasized: "Don't worry, even if you don't participate in this plan, it will not affect your promotion and transfer this time."
Whether Louis agreed to join this special plan or not, he would inevitably return to the local area to join the publicity work. Promotion and the Medal of Honor are part of the publicity work and have nothing to do with that plan.
When Louis seemed to be hesitating, Dr. Erskine spoke again: "Major Hunter, this is a very important plan. Once successful, maybe we can let the war end early. If you have truly stepped onto the battlefield, you should understand what this means."
"It means that many people will die less." Louis of course knew what it meant. He also knew what plan Erskine was talking about, but it would be strange if he didn't reveal anything. He just spoke up and agreed directly. Then Louis deliberately made a hesitant look, as if he was hesitating whether to agree.
In fact, he had already made a decision in his heart and agreed to join the plan. He wanted to see if he could get the chance to inject super soldier serum. Even if he could become stronger stably, it would be fake to say that he could not be moved by this kind of potion that could make people several times stronger in an instant.
After several tubes of potion, he pushed the dungeons many times!
"If the war can be ended faster and avoid more sacrifices, then I am willing to accept this invitation." Louis felt that his whole body was sublimated, and his whole body was filled with a brilliance, glory, and justice. This was said, his face was not red or breathless, and he stretched out his right hand and firmly held it with Dr. Erskine.
"I'm so glad you've accepted the invitation, Major Hunter." Dr. Erskine smiled and shook hands with Louis for a while, and finally began to talk about the project.
Louis Hunter has accepted the invitation. From this moment on, Louis has been one of the members of the special project, so the content of the project naturally does not need to be concealed from it.
"Super Soldier Project?"
Dr. Erskine introduced the plan in a simpler language and it is easy to understand: "Major Hunter is a rare and excellent pilot, and to be an excellent pilot like you, you need very good physical fitness... I have read the major's enlistment medical examination report, and I agree with the doctor's comment 'Tough like a cow'."
"Including your flight video, the maneuvering movements at high speeds, have high physical fitness requirements. Only a few pilots in the United States can fly like you... and they are not on the battlefield of fierce firefighting." Dr. Erskine pushed his glasses: "If we can develop more pilots as strong as you and have strong responsiveness, we can defeat the enemy and end the war faster."
The so-called Super Soldier Project is such a project. Only then did Louis realize that his despairing performance had long been in the eyes of some people. A talented person like Dr. Erskine, who even noticed the hidden information he revealed when he flew - flying at high speed is actually a stamina.
"It sounds like a scientific research work. Is it any useful for me to join such a plan?" This is what Louis was most curious about. Could it be that Dr. Erskine wanted to use himself as a research sample because of his amazing physical fitness?
But Dr. Erskine did not give an answer, but said that Louis's joining could make their plan complete faster.
“…”
Louis felt that he was indeed going to be studied. If his body had exceeded the limits of the human body, he might want to give it a reason. Now he is still at the peak of the human body, which can be explained as being gifted. Although it is still amazing, it is nothing.
He was not worried that these scientists would really threaten him. After all, he still had a trump card like Force. If he really encountered that kind of danger, he could escape with the Force.
The most important thing is that Dr. Erskine is not an evil scientist in Captain America. Being familiar with the plot is Louis' advantage, including knowing who can believe it, and who can never believe it.
"Major, you have three hours to handle personal affairs, and then we're going to leave Pearl Harbor by boat." The matter was settled, Senator Brandt was in a good mood and told Louis the first new task he was about to complete: "We're not going to the San Diego Naval Base, but we're going to Los Angeles where we're going to have a banquet."
"Banquet? Me?"
"Yes, Major Hunter, that's a place where you need to show your heroic posture." Member Brandt was worried that Louis didn't understand the importance of this task, so he had to explain a few more words: "Our mission is to find ways to support the rich people in Los Angeles and buy the bonds we offered."
"Then should I emphasize the tragic sacrifices on the battlefield and the cruelty and madness of the enemy? Or should I emphasize the invincibility of our heroes?" He was not sure which kind of rich people wanted to hear? Or which content is easier for them to pay for money?
As for why he did not become a literary soldier like Captain America, performing everywhere to promote war bonds, it was because Captain America was just a recruit. Even if it was the only successful experimental subject of the Super Soldier Project, he was still a recruit and could only gang up in the low-end field.
Louis was a war hero from the battlefield and was promoted to major. He was so anxious to raise his level to manage the "high-end field".
Senator Brandt didn't expect Louis to be so smart. The pilot is indeed a soldier with high quality. In this way, their cooperation should be very easy: "We have to talk about it, don't worry, I will remind you what you should say."
"I understand!" It seems that Senator Brandt will always be with him. He should be worried that Louis, who is an ordinary person, is not good at dealing with such a scene. In that case, Louis only needs to pay attention to what Brandt said and don't go off the topic by himself, and there will definitely be no problems.
The conversation officially ended, and Louis got the opportunity to say goodbye to his comrades, while Senator Brandt and Dr. Erskine would go to chat with Nimitz, and pass the time while pulling the relationship.
After leaving the reception room, Louis first went to find Dick, because Dick got off the Enterprise number and was transferred directly to the hospital in Pearl Harbor. He would rest here for a while and decide on subsequent arrangements based on the recovery situation.
"I didn't expect that you were the first to come to see me." Dick was lying on the bed wearing a sick suit, and his wife was taking care of him by the bed.
Seeing Louis arrive, Dick's wife Anne greeted him with a smile, while Dick was carelessly lying on the bed without moving - they were all old acquaintances and not so many politeness.
"A new position has been confirmed? Are you leaving Pearl Harbor?"
"Well, I'll go back to the local area to sell bonds and set off in three hours. The first stop is Los Angeles."
"Haha, it seems that you will suffer some of you in the next period of time... Cough cough cough..." Dick couldn't stand this kind of work. Instead of letting him do this kind of work, he would rather lie in the hospital until the end of the war.
Louis didn't care. After chatting with Dick for a while, he asked Dick, McLasky and others where he went, and then went to see McLasky first, said goodbye to the commander and then went to see Dickins.
When he came back after a walk, it was almost time.
Arriving on the warship back to the country, Louis did not expect that Dr. Erskine suddenly found him.
"Is there anything?"
"Just want to talk to you." Dr. Erskine held a bottle of whiskey in his hand. "I'm not very comfortable with life on the boat, so I need something to help me fall asleep."
Louis did not refuse, and came to the side of the ship with Erskine. Then Dr. Erskine poured himself a cup and asked Louis if he wanted to drink: "Or Coke?"
"It seems you know me very well!"
"Of course!" Perhaps because there were no one around, Dr. Erskine spoke much more happily: "We did a lot of research and research on you, and knew that you had a girlfriend living in Los Angeles, and every long holiday you would go to Los Angeles to date that girl; you were not resistant to alcohol but had no special preferences, your favorite drink was Coke; Major, you have very strong physical fitness... and may also have extraordinary reactions and calculation skills."
Erskine paused at the end and suddenly stared at Louis's face: "Or maybe you have the legendary premonition."
After staring straight for three seconds, Erskine smiled and retracted her gaze: "Of course, this is just a joke!"
It was a joke, but Louis felt that Dr. Ersk had determined that this was the truth. He did not argue anything, but understood why Dr. Erskine invited him to join the Super Soldier Project: The old man suspected that he had special abilities, or that he had special abilities.
"The investigation is really detailed." After all, it was a secret department, and it was still a highly confidential experiment. It would be strange if you didn't investigate it carefully.
However, Dr. Erskine did not talk about "predictive ability" with Louis anymore, but just talked about trivial matters, as if he was just a joke just now.
