They killed him, Diego! I don't know how they did it, but they killed your brother!" I dropped the smartphone and its screen sha
ipn [44]

The correct answer is C. Infection

Explanation:

In the excerpt presented, Diego who is the brother of a superhero known as Impervious describes his thoughts as he is informed about his brother's death. One of the main points in this excerpt is who or what killed Impervious or Javier because according to Diego he was an invincible superhero.

Due to this, the narrator considers possible causes such as an "alien technology" and "damage or infection" but he rules out these options because Aliens were fictional and Javier seemed indestructible not only outside but inside, which proves he was not likely to develop an infection or disease. In this context, one of the weaknesses Diego rules out is an infection.
