Chapter 831: New Change
After Tony and Rogers both confirmed that Mirage Knight would return, they chatted a little bit about the future of the alliance. Even with Mirage Knight out of the picture, some things have to go according to plan.
“Jackson, you’ve been bouncing around since that showdown with me! It would have been fine if you didn’t go home but at least you were on earth but now you aren’t even on earth right now!” After hanging up the video call with Rogers, Tony looked at his lab and whispered to himself.
“JARVIS.”
“I am here, sir.”
Then Tony calls out to JARVIS as they have a lot of work to do. Right now, aside from focusing on the events related to the Bifrost, their first priority is to take care of the Extremis soldiers who surrendered the other day. Although Killian, the leader of the Extremis crisis, is dead and Mandarin is also being held a prisoner by Lin Rui. However, the situation with Extremis is far from over.
According to Tony and Rogers’ conjecture, there may be some people behind this whole incident as Killian and a not-so-smart Mandarin wouldn’t have been able to create such a huge commotion even if the power of Extremis is very strong. So, in addition to studying the Extremis formula, Tony and the others have to pay attention to something deeper.

Since Lin Rui had asked JARVIS if he had conscious projections in the newly remodeled base in Siberia, JARVIS has had some new ideas, and now it seems to be preparing to design its own projections. The light blue rays with no fixed shape are some of JARVIS ‘attempts.
“Let’s thaw one first. Extremis cannot exist without a human body if it has been injected. If we want to find out the secrets that are in Extremis then we need a living subject and those Extremis soldiers will do the trick.” Hearing JARVIS’s words, Tony said while explaining his reasoning.
Tony didn’t say anything about the light blue light that JARVIS projected in front of his eyes. For Tony, this is also a very normal thing. And, through those pulsating bluish lights, Tony could also observe the changes in the “mood” of the JARVIS system.
“Roger that. Starting the unfreezing process of Extremis Soldier Number 1.” Receiving Tony’s confirmation, JARVIS is already working on unfreezing the Extremis Soldier Number one.
There were thirteen Extremis Soldiers who surrendered before, nine of them were in Tony Stark’s hands, and the rest were in SHIELD’s custody. Although Tony doesn’t know how SHIELD will deal with the Extremis Soldiers, he will follow his own plans.
“Well, before No. 1 fully wakes up, let’s bring Venom over. Didn’t it absorb a lot of life energy just now? I want to see if there have been any changes.” While waiting for No. 1 to wake up, Tony decided to have a look at Venom’s condition first.
“Yes Sir.” JARVIS agreed and brought over the Venom that had been re-sealed before.
However, when Tony saw Venom trapped inside the ultra-hard nanoglass box, he could barely recognize it.
“This is Venom?! Why did it become like this?!” Tony asked in disbelief as he looked at the unknown lifeform in the glass box with a pale green glow all over its body.
What appeared in front of Tony’s eyes was not the Venom he had seen before. Although the previous Venom was also a lifeform, when it was not active, it looked like a puddle of mud, and its whole body used to be pitch black.
But now, in addition to the color of the thing in the glass box, its whole shape has also changed. It seems to have some basic characteristics of the earth’s lifeform, and its physique is no longer soft and greasy but has some texture.
“Venom has been changing since it absorbed so much life energy. What it is showing right now is only temporary, and it will recover its original appearance in about five minutes.” JARVIS quickly responded after hearing Tony’s question.
“Has it been evolving? These are just temporary, right? Is it testing the direction of evolution with the energy it has absorbed?” After hearing JARVIS’s answer, Tony blinked his eyes several times and said.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“According to my detection and background calculations, the probability of this situation is very high. I have just counted the six forms of Venom that have changed during this period, and each time it is getting more adapted to the earth’s environment.” Tony guessed and JARVIS also gave its own results.
“It’s… as expected!” Although he was surprised, Tony wasn’t really shocked by Venom’s change.
After all, Tony had anticipated this situation before. Not to mention that Venom had absorbed so much life energy, even if it absorbs some ordinary energy, it will try its best to start to evolve to adapt to the environment of the earth.
What’s more, the life energy absorbed from Lin Rui this time is so pure and large that it has more perfect energy reserves to experiment with its own evolution direction.
“Can we stop this evolutionary experiment?” Tony asked JARVIS, worried that there would be problems with Venom evolving like this.
“A lot of the previous approaches don’t work very well for the current Venom, and it’s very difficult to freeze it apart from completely destroying it.” Hearing Tony’s words, JARVIS calmly replied.
Tony felt helpless when he heard JARVIS’s answer. Although Venom here is only part of the original Venom, it would be a big problem if it really evolved to the point where Tony could no longer control it.
“Is there any way we can take the energy out of it? If it ran out of energy then its evolution would stop, and it would not develop any new powers.” Unable to stop Venom’s evolution, Tony can only control it from that aspect.
“We can’t do that for now, but we can continue to drain Venom’s energy with powerful energy attacks. It wouldn’t have the time or energy to evolve itself.” With a quick answer to Tony’s question, JARVIS himself came up with a possible solution.
“Drain its energy? Yes! But before that, I also want to see where it will go if it keeps trying. So, let’s cut it!” Tony’s eyes lit up after hearing JARVIS’ suggestion as he spoke.
“Yes, sir.”
