Alex Rivers, dressed in a bikini, was enjoying a sunbath on a massage bed by the outdoor swimming pool of her villa. Several voluptuous bikini-clad women were giving her a relaxing massage.
"Ding, system upgrade complete." The system's long-absent voice echoed in Alex's mind.
"Five months, a full five months. Do you know how I lived these five months, system? I thought you were gone for good!" Alex happily sat up and replied internally.
Faora, a sexy bikini-clad woman massaging Alex, asked in confusion, "Queen, what's wrong?"
"Oh, nothing~" Alex waved her hand at Faora, her eyes full of joy. "I just thought of something happy."
After speaking, she lay back down to continue enjoying herself.
Faora nodded, not asking further, and leaned closer to continue massaging Alex's body. The other women also came forward, helping Alex apply advanced essential oils purchased from the system store, allowing her to fully relax on this sunny afternoon.
Alex lay on the massage bed, continuing to enjoy the massage served by several bikini-clad women. At the same time, she began to converse with the system internally.
"System, you've been upgrading for so long this time, and I've had five months of hard living. You need to give me some compensation," Alex said to the system in her mind.
"Host, I just returned not long ago, and I found that you haven't been struggling at all," the system teased.
"Cough, cough... I just relax occasionally." Then Alex asked, "Let's not talk about that for now. You've upgraded for so long, what powerful new features have you added?"
Inside a HYDRA experimental base, many fully armed HYDRA members guarded the entrance of a laboratory, holding submachine guns and vigilantly patrolling the surroundings.
Inside the laboratory, several researchers in white coats were cautiously preparing for an experiment. One member, with an excited expression, carefully picked up a long strand of hair placed on a glass sample tray with tweezers, muttering to himself, "I can't believe it, this is really a strand of Superwoman's hair! HYDRA actually managed to get it. Its quality and structure must be astonishing, we need to thoroughly test it."
Several members clamped the hair between two fixtures, carefully securing the hair sample on the operating table.
Another person brought a large, specially made advanced electric saw and enthusiastically said, "We'll use this special electric saw to test the hair's strength. It can even cut diamonds."
"Alright, let's start the experiment."
The experimenters were a bit impatient.
He turned on the electric saw, which emitted a "buzzing" sound as its sharp gears rotated rapidly. He slowly moved the rotating saw blade to the edge of the hair. The blade made contact with the hair, producing a "clinking" sound of collision, but the hair remained motionless. The researchers' eyes widened one by one.
He incredulously increased the saw's power and speed. "Buzz—" The electric saw vibrated at a high frequency, and the blade sparked, but the hair remained completely undamaged.
"This is incredible!" he exclaimed, turning the saw's speed to maximum in one go. "Buzz, buzz, buzz—" The electric saw emitted a piercing sound, the motor spun wildly, and the blade rubbed against the hair, creating bursts of sparks.
Just then, the electric saw made a crisp sound, the blade "snapped" and broke, and the saw convulsed before stopping.
"Ah! My leg..." A fragment scratched a person, but it was a minor injury. Several people immediately entered from outside and helped him out to treat the wound.
The researchers all widened their eyes, incredulously looking at the perfectly intact hair sample. This single strand of hair had easily withstood the cutting of a well-designed diamond electric saw!
"It seems we still have a long way to go before we can find a way to deal with Superwoman," the first member sighed, "But since we've obtained such an extraordinary sample, we have hope of unraveling Superwoman's secret. For the cause of HYDRA, we must go all out!"
The others also nodded heavily, and once again carefully put away the hair sample, preparing for the next stage of experiments...
Alexander Pierce, the senior official of HYDRA, sat alone in the dim monitoring room, observing every move in the laboratory with great interest through a large screen.
Watching the experimenters conduct various strength tests on Superwoman's hair, all to no avail, Pierce couldn't help but gasp—it turned out that Superwoman's hair quality was even more astonishing than imagined. This was simply unbelievable!
Despite his shock, Pierce still held a glimmer of hope, thinking that perhaps HYDRA scientists could successfully destroy this hair and uncover some useful information for studying Superwoman.
"But just hair isn't enough," Pierce lamented. "It would be even better if we could obtain other bodily tissues from Superwoman. Given her physical fitness and strength, her blood, cells, and even DNA are infinitely valuable treasures, precious research samples."
However, what Pierce didn't know was that Alex's artificial intelligence, Skynet, was also watching with him, synchronously monitoring everything.
Skynet did not cause any system anomalies, and no one knew of Skynet's existence.
As a top-tier artificial intelligence that Alex spent 5 billion prestige points to strengthen through the system, its functions are extremely powerful and highly intelligent and autonomous. It multitasks, paying attention to everything related to Alex.
This strand of Alex's hair was merely naturally shed during metabolism. Alex hadn't noticed these things originally and didn't expect HYDRA to obtain a strand of her hair.
After learning that her hair had been acquired by the HYDRA organization, Alex was not worried about any major threat. The mere technology of HYDRA trying to extract useful clues from her was tantamount to wishful thinking.
She decided to release the video recording of this HYDRA experiment online. For her, this was a good opportunity to increase exposure and prestige. The quality of her hair would be showcased, earning her prestige points.
As for HYDRA's schemes, she didn't care about them at all.
"Let the whole world see how amazing the quality of this hair is!" Alex said with a smile to Skynet.
"Yes, Master." Skynet immediately carried out Alex's command.
Soon, under Skynet's operation, an experimental video titled "How Hard is Superwoman's Hair?" quickly went viral on major social media platforms.
After watching the video, people online left comments:
"Oh my goodness, Superwoman's hair is so incredible!"
"A single strand of hair can defeat a professional electric saw; its quality is too good!"
"Which organization's laboratory is this? I think I've discovered a big problem!"
"Superwoman's image in my heart has leveled up again! Her hair is harder than steel, her strength is simply impregnable!"
"I'm curious if all of Superwoman's cells are this incredibly powerful. Her physical strength is truly fascinating!" — A casual passerby.
"My idol is truly amazing! She is a goddess among humans!" — A true fan.
"Hmph, trying to prove how powerful Superwoman is with a tiny example of hair? Is this video real? Everyone, don't be fooled." — A small hater.
"What if Superwoman's nearly invincible power gets out of control someday? Her superpowers still need to be restricted. It would be best if she could be placed under government jurisdiction to prevent unforeseen circumstances." — A small hater.
"You're spouting nonsense!!!" — A true fan replied to the small hater.
