Chapter: 248

"Mr. Rocket, are you using the ship's parts and items to make bombs?"

Inside the cabin, the ship had been set on autopilot, speeding towards its destination, Knowhere. The members on the ship were busy with their respective tasks.

With nothing else to do, Baymax approached curiously after seeing Rocket's actions.

"It seems there's a clever one on this ship. At least I don't have to worry about being influenced by Quill and Drax and becoming dumber if I stay near them for too long," Rocket raised his head and glanced at Baymax, then continued working.

"In fact, you don't need to worry. Stupidity is not an illness; it's a flaw and not contagious. Besides, you are already smarter than most humans I've encountered, and you have dexterous hands they don't possess."

Upon hearing this, Rocket paused for the first time and a pleased smile appeared on his face. "Big guy, even though you don't know what that means to me, I still want to say thank you. Your praise means a lot to me."

"If you want the bomb to be more powerful, it's best to add a few drops of hydrogen peroxide to the formula. It can increase the explosive effect by more than two times," Baymax observed Rocket's actions and also offered some suggestions.

Rocket didn't respond but continued tinkering with the bomb. However, when it came to the final step of mixing the explosives, Rocket took out a bottle of hydrogen peroxide from the medical box. "Is there a specific dosage?"

Baymax turned to look at Rocket and saw that Rocket was also looking back at him. It quickly replied, "Two and a half milliliters. A little more won't have a significant impact."

Rocket nodded and then took out a measuring cylinder to accurately pour 2.5 milliliters of hydrogen peroxide into the mixture, sealing the bomb afterward.

"I thought you wouldn't take my advice," Baymax curiously said to Rocket.

"I'll adopt any correct and useful advice. It's with this little bit of intelligence that I manage to survive in this universe dominated by humans.

I'm an experiment. They spliced human genes into my DNA, giving me human intelligence and language abilities. They also implanted me with mechanical neural devices to enhance the flexibility of my body and limbs. 

They treated me like a toy, constantly disassembling and reassembling me, always seeking new breakthroughs in their experiments..."

"Perhaps it's because of this experience that I've developed the ability to escape. I can confidently say that there's no prison in this universe that can hold me, Rocket."

Hearing this, Rocket's expression showed some pride. After all, his twenty-three successful escapes, not twenty-two, were the most remarkable experiences and the skill he was most proud of.

"Is that so... Now I understand why my master always considered himself the first and only test subject. I get it," Baymax mumbled thoughtfully.

"What are you saying?" Rocket asked curiously.

"I'm reminded of my master back on Earth. He always used himself as the test subject for body modifications. He said [Since I have the confidence that I can succeed, I will only experiment on myself. Its safe.]

Originally, I didn't quite understand the meaning of this sentence. Shouldn't violating the 'Experimental Safety Code' increase one's own risk. So why would he claim it's safer this way? "

"After listening to your story, I think I understand my master now. His experiments had gone beyond the scope of conventional 'Experimental Safety Code.'

In this forbidden territory, once the test subject escapes from the lab, it can lead to dreadful consequences. Of course, I'm not saying you are a disaster, Mr. Rocket.

I just learned through your example that using any other life as an experimental subject is not only inhumane, but it also means there's no guarantee that the test subject won't end up outside the lab."

"Your master must be an outstanding individual. 

Not only can you learn a lot from his views, but creating an intelligent robot like you, with such high intelligence, is a feat that very few in the entire universe, except for a few powerful civilizations, could achieve. 

If I have the opportunity, I'd love to meet your master and see his other inventions."

"I also want to meet my master, but I don't know when that will happen. But if you want to see his other inventions, it's not impossible on this ship."

Saying that, Baymax's belly emitted a bright light, and one invention after another was displayed before Rocket in holographic form.

"This is the plasma cutting ray, it can... this one dominates... but compared to Drax, I think it should be called the Destroyer, it can..."

In this way, Baymax introduced one invention after another that Mark had created before it left Earth.

Rocket, who didn't have much regard for Baymax before, was also intrigued and began discussing with Baymax. The atmosphere between them grew warmer, and their relationship became more harmonious.

It was only when Drax exclaimed from the cockpit that their exchange was interrupted.

"What is that thing!" Even a robust man like Drax couldn't help but be astonished by the awe-inspiring sight before him.

Attracted by his voice, Rocket, Baymax, and Star-Lord, who had been staying in the lower deck, all came to the cockpit and looked out through the window. 

What they saw was a colossal skull, resembling a comet, floating in space. Everyone was stunned by the sight.

At this point, Gamora stepped forward to explain, "That's the Knowhere up ahead. It's the severed head of a Celestial. 

For hundreds of years, the Empiricorp has stationed here and sent miners to extract valuable resources from the skeleton: bones, brain tissues, spinal fluids – all highly valued commodities on the black market across the galaxy. 

It's dangerous and illegal, so only desperate people come here seeking a way out. Be careful, everyone; this is a lawless place!"
