Chapter XI

At night, inside the bedroom.

Gwen sat down in front of the computer and used her newfound trumpet to send out a friend request to Peter.

[The other party has requested through your friend, you can start chatting!] 】

Back in seconds!

During the day today, Gwen made an appointment with Peter as Spider-Woman.

Gwen, on her part, just get a brand new trumpet and make sure she doesn't get involved with Gwen Stacy.

She snorted, in a cheerful mood, and typed:

[Hello. 】

The other side also replied quickly,

[Hello, Spider Woman! 】

Gwen looked at the screen and smirked,

Don't call me that here. 】

[Then what should I call you?] 】

Well...... Gwen is also a little embarrassed, what does Peter call himself?

Another message from Peter,

[Remember the first time we met?] 】

[Of course.] 】

Can I call you a cat? Or Catwoman? 】

Yes... Gwen remembered, and Peter told Aunt May in front of her that she was a little wildcat!

It's excessive.

[This seems a bit like a superhero title?] Gwen replied.

[Of course, then you can call me Baxterman.] 】

Gwen:!!

Peter, you said you weren't flirting with other girls!

Isn't that great!

Gwen was a little angry. After all, Peter still flirted with the girl behind her back, but ...... She also doesn't seem to have any position to blame Peter?

Right? They're not boyfriend and girlfriend.

Moreover, it was herself who Peter was teasing behind her back, and this strange feeling made Gwen's mood twisted, as if she had touched everything and nothing.

That's weird!

So, do you want to accept it?

Gwen didn't realize that she hadn't even thought about refusal, but was thinking about superheroes and her informant companions, like Superman and Louis.

Well, Peter must be thinking so!

When Peter finds out who she really is, his expression will be funny!

However, this dessert is only an episode after all, and Gwen has not forgotten her purpose in the first place.

After a brief small talk, Gwen brought up Dr. Connors,

[Dr. Connors has escaped into the sewers, and the underground system in New York is so complex that it's hard for me to track him down.] 】

[Moreover, he also took the rest of the lizard serum with him.] 】

Peter replied:

[This is a good thing, and it proves one of my guesses, the effect of the lizard serum may not be permanent.] 】

[As for the sewers...... Wait, I'll send you a file. 】

[Okay.] 】

[Huh? Is this a New York waterway drawing? Peter, how can you have such a thing! 】

Peter glanced at the new [Computer Mastery] [Software Engineering Mastery] and other hacking skills on his panel,

[I taught myself some hacking skills, and then hacked in...... Well, you get it? It's still quite difficult, after all, I'm not that good. 】

It's not that much can hack into the city government's system...... Gwen asked if she didn't know what to say, she thought Peter was more magical than she was.

Perhaps, Dr. Connors was right, Peter was a genius.

Gwen not only did not have any jealousy in his heart, but was proud of Peter from the bottom of his heart, and then typed:

[Isn't that good?] 】

[We're saving the people of New York!] 】

[Well, you convinced me. 】

Superheroes are just kind, not stupid, and sometimes they know how to do things in a hurry.

In this way, the first cooperation between Spider-Woman and her informant was completed very smoothly and somewhat ambiguously.

……

Underground waterways, in a makeshift stronghold.

Connors, who had regained his human form, struggled to get up from the ground and nearly fell.

After regaining his human form, he returned to his severed state along with his arms.

Connors's eyes widened, and he looked at his severed arm in disbelief and anger.

"Why!" He roared in impotence and rage.

He thought he had succeeded, but the heavens seemed to play a joke on him.

The mutation into the appearance of a monitor lizard has made him lose his dignity as a human being, but now, even his only consolation has been taken away.

Connors used his remaining arm to secure the brace and camera to record his state and inner monologue.

Although he has regained his human form, half of his skin is forever stained with the color and scales of a lizard.

Even one of the pupils turned a reptilian yellow.

"I... I didn't expect it to turn out like this, oh yes, I failed Peter. ”

Connors scratched his hair in pain, scratching a handful,

"He gave me the formula, but I made it like this."

"Why? I just want to create a world without defects! A strong race! No one is discriminated against and excluded anymore! ”

He slammed his arm on the table, lowered his head, gritted his teeth, and said, "But, I failed." ”

"Why? Humans are fragile, pathetic creatures. The low-level is dull and short-sighted, and he does that meaningless intrigue all day long...... Hehehe......"

He raised his head violently, and even that normal eye was gradually replaced by madness,

"So, why be human? We have a better option now, don't we? ”

Connors stood up, staggered and picked up the lizard serum on the table, and said:

"We'll be faster, stronger, smarter......"

He pierced the serum into the blood vessels, and the whole person was bruised, but his eyes were still staring at the camera.

"Let's all usher in a glorious evolution!"

"Oh... No. Gwen covered her mouth and watched the replay in disbelief.

With the map of the sewers that Peter had given her, she had found Connors's stronghold here, but it seemed that she was too late.

In the colony, she only found this documentary.

Connors has completely fallen into the abyss, trying to turn everyone into genetically mutated monsters.

She couldn't understand why the once respectable, humorous Dr. Connors had become like this.

She had to find Dr. Connors quickly...... Before he made an unpredictable mistake.

……

Presbyterian sanatorium.

Harry went to the deepest part through layers of surveillance, protection, and protection.

In a small visitor's room, through the window and the bar, he saw his father, Norman Osborne, again.

Harry had mixed feelings.

My father's face was very pale, with strange green tendons, and his eyes were bloodshot and very cloudy.

He still doesn't look in good spirits, a little nervous, wearing a biological armor and shackles on his hands.

is completely different from the coercive, wise, and high-spirited man in my impression.

"Father." Harry spoke.

"Harry......" Norman held out his hand and looked out with wide eyes, "You've finally come to see me." ”

Harry nodded and said, "Are they all true?" ”

"What?"

"What the outside world said, they framed you, right?" Harry said with some hope.

"Huh......" Norman Osborne chuckled twice, "no, I did, kid, and more than I did. ”

Harry looked at the strange and familiar man and asked, "Why?" I don't understand why you're doing this. ”

Norman Osborne stared at Harry and said, "I don't think I told you yet." ”

"What?"

"Do you remember your grandfather?"

"No, didn't he die before I was born?"

"Yes, that day is forever engraved in my mind," said Norman Osborne, narrowing his eyes.

"I don't want to be like him and not see the day my grandson is born."

Harry was stunned by Norman Osborne's words, "Father, what do you mean?" ”

Norman explained: "We in the Osborne family, we have a genetic disease.

Every Osborne would die of this disease in the prime of life, and they all struggled, but eventually died, like my father, grandfather......"

"It's just me!" Norman Osborne suddenly grabbed the iron railing, his face squeezed out, and he looked a little hideous,

"I'm the only one who survived, even if I became like this, but I still survived, didn't I?"

"No ......" Harry couldn't accept, "You're lying to me......"

During this time, it was as if he had fallen from the clouds to the ground, and everything around him had changed dramatically because of the "Green Goblin", everyone looked at him with strange eyes, and everyone was crowding him out, which was enough to breathe.

And now, Norman Osborne's words have sent him directly to hell and to be judged by Satan.

His father's present seems to be his future, and his life seems to be entangled with the Green Goblin.

"Child, hahahaha......" Norman grinned, looked directly at the lost Harry, and said:

"Sooner or later, this is also a fate that you should accept."

Harry lost his strength and collapsed and muttered, "I... What am I going to do? ”

Norman Osborne looked at Harry.

Perhaps it was the duty of being a father, or perhaps it was a harbinger of the dissipation of the last trace of humanity, and as he was leaving, he said:

"Spider, go find Spider-Woman."

Harry looked up at him, puzzled.

"She's the only perfect cross-species gene transferor so far, and I can feel the genes boiling in my body when I meet her, and I want to devour her," Norman Osborne said. ”

"Now she is the only one who can save you."

Watching Harry leave in distraction, Norman hung his head and didn't know what he was thinking.

It wasn't until a nurse came in and was about to take him back that he suddenly burst out and tore the handcuffs directly with a wave of his hand......

Immediately afterward, alarms sounded throughout the Presbyterian sanatorium.

……

Inside the apartment.

Peter lay on the couch and listened to the short interlude of the piano music to the end, about to reach the final climax.

On TV, the news media are urgently inserting a piece of news,

"The chairman of the Stark Group, billionaire and playboy Mr. Stark, was attacked by terrorists not long ago during weapons tests in Afghanistan and the Mi Army, and his whereabouts are unknown......"

"The military has sent troops to the rescue, and there is no news yet."

"Stark Group's stock is falling sharply today, and as the developer of many Stark weapons, Tony Stark's role in Stark Group is self-evident."

【Ding! Quest Obtained: Save Tony Stark]

"Useful?"

"Maybe."
