"No problem."

Under Gwen's expectant gaze, Merlin nodded and agreed.

"It's my best friend, I knew you would." Gwen excitedly patted Merlin on the chest.

"Ahem...... Lighter, your hands are too strong. The moment the palm of his hand came up, Merlin almost didn't catch his breath.

Although the body has been trained and he has learned to fight and shoot firearms for a while, he is a little stronger than ordinary people.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry......" Gwen quickly waved her hand apologetically.

During this time, she often chased the two lizardmen in the sewers, and although her power control has increased a lot, as long as she is excited, she will still subconsciously release some power.

"It's okay, it's okay, I just haven't eaten yet, and I'll give you my dinner." Merlin rubbed his chest and said absently.

"No problem!" Gwen patted her chest, causing a ripple.

…………

Gwen ordered some takeout, and after the two of them had finished eating, it was almost evening.

By this time, the people of Osborne Industries had also left work, and Merlin left the apartment on a motorcycle and drove Gwen towards the location of Manhattan's Times Square.

Both Osborne and Stark Industries are located in downtown Manhattan, but one is near the stadium and the other is near Times Square.

After crossing Times Square, Merlin parked the locomotive in an underground parking lot next to the company.

He was also familiar with Osborne Industries, and he had attended Professor Connors's Cross-Species Genomics Exhibition with Gwen and Peter.

That's when Gwen began to have something unusual.

…………

Looking up, most of the lights inside the Osborne Industrial Building have been turned off, and only scattered areas are still on.

Generally, the sales or power maintenance department is working overtime.

"Follow me!" Gwen swaggered into the company with Merlin through the main entrance.

The lights in the hall were still on, but there were no people, and it was empty.

The two took the elevator and soon arrived at the 36th floor.

Passing through the quiet hallway, Gwen and Merlin quickly arrived at the staff entrance.

She took out her employee card and swiped it, the green light turned on, and the alloy door slowly rose.

"Smack!" The lights flickered, quickly illuminating the vast laboratory inside.

Gwen and Gwen stood in the doorway for a moment with their eyes lit up.

"Let's get started!" Gwen walked to the cabinet next to her and took out two sets of dust-proof white coats, one of which she threw to Merlin.

After the two of them changed their clothes, the first step was to turn on the computer and count the progress and information of Connors's experiment.

"Lizards have their own genes that control the regeneration mechanism, so they are the most suitable genes for cross-species gene fusion."

"But in the case of cross-species, although theoretically possible, it is very difficult, and in the process of gene transfer to the human genome, the vector will have great defects."

"Professor Connors wants to use the regeneration mechanism in the lizard's body and apply it to stem cell technology to accelerate cell regeneration and repair, and complete the effect of regeneration of broken limbs."

"The experiment has actually been successful, but the side effect of gene fusion is also obvious - human nature."

Stem cells are mother cells with proliferative and differentiation potential, and belong to a type of daughter cell that can self-renew and produce other types of highly differentiated progeny.

It has the functions of repair, metabolic regulation and self-renewal.

In the field of biology and medicine, stem cells also belong to the existence of the uncrowned king. Many people are given stem cells to remove facial wrinkles and delay aging.

In Connors's cross-species genetic experiment, the regeneration gene of the lizard was fused with stem cell growth factors to achieve the ability to regenerate severed limbs.

"In other words, Professor Connors will lose his mind, most likely because brain stem cells affect the nervous system." Gwen opened her hand to zoom in on a string of cell data projections, guessing.

"This is probably the biggest." Merlin nodded.

"This can be saved for the end, and now the main thing is to find a way to develop an antidote serum." Gwen shook her head, they didn't have much time to perfect the regeneration potion right now.

"Hmm......" Merlin muttered, "if you want to develop a serum, you need to destroy the regeneration mechanism of the lizard's genes. ”

Gwen's eyes lit up when she heard this, "That's a good direction. ”

As she spoke, she quickly retrieved the data from the experiment on the regeneration mechanism of the lizard.

Merlin also brought pen and paper and began to draft and calculate beside him.

…………

……

After a night passed, there was still no progress in the research progress of the serum, but the experiment was like this, as long as there was a breakthrough and a direction, the next thing was smooth.

In the wee hours of the morning, Gwen dragged Merlin out of the company, after all, they were sneaky, and it would be embarrassing if they were discovered.

At the end of the night, Merlin was not too sleepy because he had slept during the day, while Gwen was purely in good health and did not feel it.

…………

Early the next morning.

After settling breakfast with Gwen, Merlin rode his motorcycle to Brooklyn.

He asked Stark to keep an eye on the aerospace military factory before, and today he has found one, and the address is in Brooklyn.

Stark Industries, which has close ties to national defense, is still easy to find an aerospace military factory.

…………

The factory is located in a suburb, surrounded by lush greenery and somewhat secluded.

"Hey! Over here! From afar, the round Harpy saw Merlin riding a conspicuous red locomotive.

Merlin parked the locomotive next to the factory and shook hands with Harpy.

"Hey! Didn't Mr. Stark come? He looked behind Harpy and asked, confused.

"He left temporarily, there was an order from Afghanistan, he originally planned to come to see you, but his friend urged him to leave first."

"By the way, let me tell you I'm sorry." Harpy explained.

"He's not like someone who says sorry." Merlin shrugged, then walked around Harpy into the factory.

Afghanistan...... I don't know if it's anymore.

…………

"This was originally an aircraft factory built by Lockheed in cooperation with Aston Martin, but for some reason the talks collapsed, so it was temporarily shelved here."

"Although the most advanced fighters cannot be built here, it is still no problem to produce some civilian helicopters and ordinary fighter engines." Walking into the factory, the interior was empty, and some obsolete fighters were also placed in the square.

However, it doesn't look cluttered, and many devices are covered with a dust cloth.

Harpy introduced it on the side.
