Chapter 22

At night, in the bedroom.

Gwen sat in front of the computer and sent a friend request to Peter using her newly minted trumpet.

[The other party has approved your friend request, you can start chatting! ]

Reply in seconds!

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

As for Gwen, all she needs to do is get a brand new trumpet and make sure it doesn't have anything to do with Gwen Stacy.

She hummed, feeling happy, and typed:

[Hello. ]

The person on the other side also responded very quickly,

[Hello, Spider-Woman! ]

Gwen looked at the screen and giggled,

[Don't call me that here. ]

[Then what should I call you? ]

Hmm… Gwen is also a little embarrassed. What should Peter call herself?

Peter sent another message,

[Remember the first time we met? ]

[certainly. ]

[Can I call you cat? Or Catwoman? ]

Ah… Gwen remembered that Peter told Aunt May that she was a little wild cat in front of her!

It's really too much.

[This seems a bit similar to the title of a superhero? ] Gwen replied.

[Of course, then you can call me Bateman. ]

Gwen:! !

Peter, you said you didn't flirt with other girls!

Isn't this very good!

Gwen was a little angry. After all, Peter still flirted with girls behind her back, but…she didn't seem to have any position to accuse Peter?

right? They are not boyfriend and girlfriend.

Moreover, it was herself that Peter was flirting with behind her back. This weird feeling made Gwen's mind twist into a knot, as if it was touched by everything but not by anything.

This is so strange!

So, do you want to accept it?

Gwen didn't realize it, but she wasn't thinking about rejection at all. Instead, she was thinking about superheroes and her fellow informants, like Superman and Lois.

Well, Peter must be thinking so!

When Peter discovers her true identity one day, his expression will be very interesting!

However, this dessert was just a sideshow after all, and Gwen never forgot her purpose in the first place.

After a brief chat, Gwen brought up the matter of Dr. Connors,

[Dr. Connors escaped into the sewers. The underground system in New York is so complex that it will be difficult for me to track him down. ]

[Moreover, he also took away the remaining lizard serum. ]

Peter replied:

[This is a good thing. It proves one of my guesses that the effect of the lizard serum may not be permanent. ]

[As for the sewer… wait, I will send you a document. ]

[good. ]

[Um? Is this a blueprint of New York's underground sewer system? Peter, how could you have such a thing! ]

Peter glanced at the new hacking skills such as [Computer Proficiency] and [Software Engineering Proficiency] on his panel,

[I taught myself some hacking skills, and then hacked in… Well, you understand? It's quite difficult, after all, I'm not that great. ]

Being able to hack into the city government's system is not that powerful… Gwen asked and didn't know what to say. She thought Peter was more magical than her.

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

Not only did Gwen not have any jealousy in her heart, she was actually proud of Peter from the bottom of her heart, and then typed:

[Isn't this bad? ]

[We are saving the people of New York! ]

[Okay, you convinced me. ]

Superheroes are just kind-hearted, not stupid. Sometimes they also know how to act in a hurry.

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

…

Underground waterway, in a temporary stronghold.

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

After returning to his human form, his arms also returned to their broken state.

Connors' eyes widened, looking at his broken arm in disbelief and anger.

"Why!" he roared incompetently and furiously.

He once thought he had succeeded, but God seemed to have made a joke on him.

Mutating into a giant lizard had already caused him to lose his dignity as a human being, but now, it had even taken away his only comfort.

Connors used his remaining arm to install a bracket and camera to record his current state and inner monologue.

Although he regained his human form under the lens, half of his skin was permanently stained with the color and scales of a lizard.

Even one pupil turned a reptilian bright yellow.

"I…I didn't expect it to be like this, oh, yes, I failed Peter."

Connors scratched his hair in pain and grabbed a handful,

"He gave me the formula, but I messed things up. Like this."

"Why? I just want to create a world without flaws! A strong race! No one will be discriminated against or excluded!"

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

(Go to read the novel on the site: Novels Knights)

"Why? Human beings are fragile, pathetic creatures. They are low-level, slow and short-sighted. They engage in meaningless intrigues all day long… Hehehe…"

He raised his head suddenly, even the normal bird His eyes were gradually replaced by madness,

"So, why do you want to be human? We have a better choice now, don't we?"

Connors stood up and picked up the lizard serum on the table with some trembling. , while saying:

"We will become faster, stronger, and smarter…"

He injected the serum into his blood vessels, veins popped up all over his body, but his eyes were still fixed on the camera,

"Let everyone usher in a glorious evolution. !"

"Oh… no." Gwen covered her mouth and watched the video playback in disbelief.

With the help of the sewer map Peter gave her, she had found Connors' stronghold here, but she seemed to be late again.

In the stronghold, she only found this recorded video.

Connors has gone completely over the edge, intent on turning everyone into genetically mutated monsters.

She didn't understand why the once respected and humorous Dr. Connors became like this.

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

…

Presbyterian Nursing Home.

Harry passed through the layers of surveillance and protection and reached the deepest part.

In a small visiting room, through the window and iron bars, he met his father, Norman Osborne, again.

Harry had mixed feelings.

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

His mental state still didn't look good, he was a little nervous, he was wearing a biological armor, and his hands were shackled.

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

"Father," Harry said.

"Harry…" Norman stretched out his hand and looked out with wide eyes, "You finally came to see me."

Harry nodded and said, "Are everything they said true?"

"What?"

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

"Hehehe…" Norman Osborn laughed lowly twice, "No, I did, kid, and even worse."

Harry looked at this strange yet familiar man and asked: "Why? I don't understand why you would do this."

Norman Osborn stared at Harry and said, "I guess I haven't told you yet."

"What?"

"Do you remember your grandfather? ?"

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

"Yes, that day will always be engraved in my mind," Norman Osborne narrowed his eyes and said, "

I don't want to be with him. He, too, will not be able to see the day my grandson is born."

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

Norman explained: "Our Osborne family suffers from a disease. Genetic disease.

Every Osborn will die from this disease in his prime. They all struggled, but in the end they died, just like my father and grandfather…" "

Only me!" Norman Osborn Suddenly he grabbed the iron railing and squeezed his face out, looking a bit ferocious,

"I am the only one who survived. Even if I become like this, I still survive, right?"

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

During this period, he seemed to have fallen from the clouds to the ground. Everything around him changed drastically because of the "Green Goblin". Everyone looked at him with strange eyes, and everyone looked at him with strange eyes. People are ostracizing him, which is enough to make people breathless.

And now, Norman Osborne's words have sent him directly to hell and accepted the judgment of Satan.

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

"Kid, hahahaha…" Norman grinned wildly, looked straight at the lost Harry, and said,

"Sooner or later, this is the fate you should accept."

Harry collapsed and murmured as if he had lost all strength. Said to himself: "I…what should I do?"

Norman Osborn looked at Harry.

Perhaps it was his responsibility as a father, or perhaps it was a sign of the last trace of humanity dissipating. Before leaving, he still said:

"Spider, go find Spider-Woman."

Harry raised his head and looked at him in confusion.

Norman Osborne said: "She is the only perfect cross-species gene transferer so far. I can feel that when I met her, the genes in my body were boiling and I wanted to devour her." "Now, too

. Only she can save you."

Watching Harry leave in a daze, Norman also lowered 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 became violent and tore off the handcuffs with a wave of his hand…

Immediately afterwards, the alarm sounded throughout the Presbyterian Nursing Home.

…

in the apartment.

Peter was lying on the sofa, listening to the short passage of the piano music playing to the end, and was about to reach the final climax.

On TV, the news media were all urgently broadcasting a piece of news,

"Mr. Stark, the chairman of the Stark Group, a billionaire, and a playboy, was attacked by terrorists when he was testing weapons with the US military in Afghanistan not long ago. The attack, the current whereabouts are unknown…"

"The military has sent out troops for rescue, and there is no news yet." "

The Stark Group's stock price plummeted today. As the developer of many Stark weapons, Tony Stark said The role of Stark Group is self-evident."

[Ding! Get the mission: Save Tony Stark]

"When you need help, you can call my name."

"Useful?"

"Maybe."
