The addition of Sentinel gave Nick Fury another stabilizing force, one that he could use at will. The communicator Carol left when she departed was finally no longer his ultimate trump card!
The subsequent tests of Sentinel's abilities shocked everyone at the Base.
Because in his normal state, Sentinel's strength already exceeded a million tons, and this was not his limit; it was the limit of the experimental equipment prepared.
His speed easily surpassed a thousand times the speed of sound, and this was also not his limit.
There was no doubt about his physique; currently, all weapons known to humanity were unable to penetrate his skin.
Not to mention the energy within his body, a mere trace of which exceeded the largest-yield bomb humanity had ever created.
He also possessed incredibly keen senses, powerful mental strength, the ability to absorb power from solar radiation, and could emit golden energy rays from his eyes…
Moreover, because he had just gained his powers, it was still unknown how many abilities Sentinel possessed that even he himself was unaware of.
Nick Fury stared at the test report in his hand, speechless for a long time.
This was simply a perfect hexagonal warrior, with no obvious weaknesses.
However, the results of the psychological test performed on Sentinel made Fury frown.
Because the psychologist who conducted the test on Sentinel noted on the last page of the report: "This is a seemingly powerful person, but in reality, he is weak-hearted. There is a darkness in his heart that he dares not confront. If not guided, it may lead to a destructive personality."
Recalling how Coulson had said that Sentinel's attire was a tribute to the Superhero Superman from the comics, Sentinel's current strength made him look like a living replica of Superman.
More importantly, this Superman before them did not possess the noble and perfect qualities of the 'God among Men' from the comics.
Before gaining his powers, he was an addict, although like Superman, he had a woman he deeply loved.
But who could guarantee how much his wife truly mattered to him!
"Alas! Is possessing such power truly a good thing for Earth?"
At this moment, his thoughts were no longer about Sentinel as a hero strengthening Earth's defenses, but rather, if Sentinel lost control, who on Earth could stop him?
The power within Sentinel, if used well, would undoubtedly have an immeasurable impact on Earth, but if not controlled properly, it would be a huge disaster for Earth.
And what was even more terrifying was that they had not yet determined whether the serum that created such a powerful being as Sentinel would also work on other people.
Therefore, they had secretly invited Professor Konig Ellis, the developer of the sentry serum, to their Base!
And from his hands, they successfully obtained the formula for the sentry serum, successfully concocting the same liquid, though it had not yet been tested.
"However, should these two test reports be submitted to the Security Council?"
Although the test results were in, Fury had some reservations about whether to report these two reports truthfully.
Nick Fury could already imagine that if this report fell into the hands of certain politicians, with their narrow wisdom, unpredictable consequences might occur.
Especially with Sentinel, a walking doomsday weapon.
Ultimately, Nick Fury still destroyed these two reports in his hand and made all personnel involved in the tests sign non-disclosure agreements.
Then he prepared two revised and abridged test reports and submitted them to the Security Council.
From then on, Sentinel officially debuted as a new member of the S.H.I.E.L.D. Strike Team before the public.
Moreover, due to Sentinel's Superman-like attire, many people referred to him as the Golden Superman.
Under the praise of ordinary people, Sentinel gradually became lost in it; he greatly enjoyed the feeling of playing a Superhero.
However, with the use of his powers, he found that his brain uncontrollably began to yearn for the taste of the sentry serum he drank back then, and slowly, a craving formed.
Sentinel tried his best to suppress the desire emanating from his brain.
His abnormal situation quickly caught Nick Fury's attention, as Sentinel's significance was, after all, self-evident.
Then they learned that Sentinel actually had such a major flaw.
Fury tried to gradually help Sentinel overcome his dependence on the sentry serum using methods similar to those used to help ordinary people overcome drug addiction.
However, when the uncontrollable addiction in his mind began to erode Sentinel's sanity, this Golden Superman, who had played a Superhero for a while, finally revealed his true nature as an addict.
He suddenly erupted, snatched the prepared sentry serum from the laboratory, and drank it.
His expression was exactly like those drug addicts who smoked marijuana, and Nick Fury's heart felt as if a basin of cold Water had been poured over it.
However, fortunately, Sentinel calmed down after drinking the serum.
Afterward, Sentinel, who had regained his sanity, apologized to Nick Fury with an expression of regret, stating that everything he had just done was caused by the monster within his body, the Void.
"I can't stop the Void; his power is simply too great!"
Facing Sentinel's explanation, Fury outwardly expressed belief, but inwardly, he harbored a hint of doubt.
Because he was not sure whether the so-called Void in Sentinel's words truly existed, nor did he know if that other personality could truly dominate this body.
"Reynolds, I think you might need some help!"
"Perhaps you could consult with Dr. Banner; he has extensive experience in how to coexist with another self within one's body."
"And I hope you two can calm down for a while and undergo some inner cultivation, how does that sound?"
This time, Fury did not use the codename Sentinel but directly called him by his real name.
Nick Fury no longer dared to casually send Sentinel on missions at this time!
"Alright!"
With things said to this extent, Reynolds knew the problems he had exposed this time, so he did not refuse.
A small disturbance thus subsided, but whether this was just a premonition, Fury did not know.
However, the only thing he understood was that they should implement some preventive measures regarding Sentinel!
In the following days, Sentinel began to learn how to control his mind alongside Bruce Banner.
Just when everything was looking up, Sentinel, as usual, prepared to converse with the Void that day, but just as he entered his consciousness space, he was horrified to discover that an uninvited guest had arrived there today!
A strange man with two horns on his head and blood-red eyes appeared in his consciousness space.
Instantly, he even thought he had split into a new personality again.
