Chapter 556
I forgive you?
I'm already being kind to you by not killing you. If it were anyone else, they'd be buried a long way from now. And you still have the nerve to ask me to give you another chance?
"Black Cat, take him to have his blood drawn. Remember to draw a lot of blood. He's our experimental subject now. Once the blood is drawn, get the hell out of here."
"Yes."
The Black Cat responded and walked toward Peter Parker.
Peter Parker hurriedly said, "Mr. Su Quan, Mr. Su Quan, please give me another chance. I can cooperate with you to draw blood and with our experiments. Please let me stay!"
Peter Parker genuinely wanted to stay, but his motives for staying were not pure.
On the one hand, there was a previous misunderstanding, and he wanted to apologize, or rather, make amends.
On the other hand, it was for this experiment, after all, it was a project his father had researched, and it had special significance for him.
Moreover, Professor Curt Connors' transformation into the lizard monster was partly his own fault and responsibility; he wanted to stay and help Professor Curt Connors.
Finally, and most importantly, Su Quan revealed information about his father during the transaction!
To be honest, Peter Parker didn't actually do anything heinous, nor did he harm the interests of Su Quan and Osborn Industries.
He mistakenly believed Su Quan had lied to him after handing over the Decay Rate Algorithm, and secretly got bitten by a spider before the transaction was completed, thus gaining the ability.
In fact, Su Quan originally planned to make him Spider-Man first, and then study the project, since the key to the success of the project lies in his and his father's genes.
Unexpectedly, Peter Parker had only been on the project for less than a day when his recklessness caused so much trouble.
However, he probably wasn't bitten on his own initiative, since he thought Su Quan had lied to him about the experimental project. So, the claim that his father injected his own genes into the spider might also be false.
To some extent, he also took a risk, because if he had really been deceived, Su Quan could now be preparing to attend the banquet as his friend.
Peter Parker is very intelligent, but not enough to play a decisive or crucial role in this project.
Each profession has its own expertise.
Professor Curt Connors has studied this for so long but still can't figure it out. No matter how smart Peter Parker is, he's just a high school student who has never been exposed to this field.
Su Quan's real purpose in getting him to join the project was to obtain his blood and genes. Now that there's an easier way to get them, there's no need to keep him here any longer.
Besides, the rift was already formed from the moment he misunderstood me. I'm not the type to compromise myself to please others, so there's no need to keep him around and affect my mood.
Peter Parker, who was unwilling to leave, was forcibly taken away by the Black Cat. To be precise, the Black Cat grabbed his fate by the neck and took him away.
"Your turn!"
Su Quan looked at Professor Curt Connors, who was lying flat, and casually beckoned a white coat over him, then helped him cut through the layers of Spider Silk.
Professor Curt Connors carefully put on his white coat, finally avoiding the embarrassment of wearing silk.
"Your problem is much more serious than Peter Parker's. After all, Peter Parker just wanted to leave and get his father's inheritance, or rather, his gift, ahead of time."
"And you? First, you violated regulations by injecting yourself with unverified serum, indirectly causing the deaths of several people and putting yourself in an uncontrollable state."
"It not only adds countless potential troubles to the future, but also greatly affects the progress of the experiment."
Professor Curt Connors opened his mouth, then asked somewhat hesitantly, "You're saying I indirectly caused the deaths of several people? Who were they? I have absolutely no recollection of them?"
"Buzz!"
Su Quan used his Psychic Abilities to transmit the events of the previous night to him.
At first, Professor Curt Connors was quite surprised and bewildered, because he did not know these people at all and had no memory of them whatsoever.
But it wasn't until the end that I realized Su Quan had altered reality, completely erasing their existence from this world, which is why I didn't recognize them or remember them.
Peter Parker could explain it as a misunderstanding because it truly was a misunderstanding, but Professor Curt Connors couldn't, because he was responsible for both the injection of the serum and the disappearance after leaving the Osborn Tower!
"I've waited too long, so long that I don't want to wait even a second longer."
"Pity—Regret—Contempt—"
"Do you know how I felt when they looked at my missing arm with such different eyes?"
"I've painstakingly researched this for so many years, expending countless hours and energy. I don't want to wait anymore, I really don't want to wait any longer!"
"I just want to have normal arms like a normal person, what's wrong with that?!"
"Tell me, what's wrong with this?!"
Professor Curt Connors went from muttering to questioning loudly, his emotions rising with each question.
His cheeks and neck were covered in ugly, lizard-like skin.
Well, from the moment Professor Curt Connors became the Lizard Professor, his mind was already warped by the serum.
As he transforms more and more, his thinking becomes increasingly distorted, until he develops another set of ideas, identifying himself as Lizard Professor!
At that time, he would have thought that the world's dominant beings should be Bug-Man like himself, and he would have tirelessly planned to turn humans into lizard people.
In the movie, he tries to spread the serum that turns people into reptilians throughout New York, but Gwen Stacy creates an antidote, and Peter Parker and George Stacy team up to stop him.
Gwen Stacy's father, George Stacy, also died as a result.
Seeing Professor Curt Connors about to transform due to his emotional outburst, Su Quan frowned and sneered, "Who gave you the courage to raise your voice at me, huh?"
The heavy nasal tone fell, and an aura as powerful as a raging storm suddenly appeared over Su Quan.
The dam gates are opened, and a tiger descends the mountain.
An overwhelming Psychic Power, like a surging ocean wave, crashed fiercely into Professor Curt Connors's mind.
"Buzz!"
Professor Curt Connors, who was about to transform, seemed to have been paused. The increasingly crazed and ferocious expression on his face froze instantly. Then, he pressed his hands hard against his head and knelt down with a thud.
A piercing, ear-piercing scream then resounded throughout the heavens and earth!
The moment the Psychic Power struck, all his questions and anger vanished. He felt as if his head was made of paper, utterly fragile!
This Psychic Power is like a spoon, vigorously stirring my brain.
Pain!
Pain!
It's still painful!
His mind—no, he no longer knew what thinking was; it was a complete blank, devoid of any concept of thinking at all.
His mind was like churning lava, constantly gushing out, as if it would erupt like a volcano at any moment and his head would explode!
His pain at that moment was so intense that it brought tears to the eyes of onlookers; his suffering was beyond description!
"Su Quan— " Gwen Stacy grabbed Su Quan's arm and called out softly, unable to bear looking at him.
"Snort!"
Su Quan snorted and withdrew his Psychic Power of "minor punishment as a warning".
Even so, Professor Curt Connors convulsed on the ground for almost half an hour before the Black Cat returned and he gradually recovered from the pain.
"Huff—huff—huff—" He instinctively gasped for breath while lying on the ground. He didn't know how much time had passed before he struggled to his feet, as if he had been pulled out of the water, his mind still foggy.
They looked up and met each other's eyes.
The moment Professor Curt Connors saw Su Quan, he trembled so badly he almost collapsed again.
This tragedy, more terrifying than death itself, is firmly imprinted on his soul and in his genes, unforgettable for all eternity!
Whether he's Professor Curt Connors or Lizard Professor, it's all the same!
You now have two choices.
"First, whether it's you or Lizard Professor, you'll follow me and work for me from now on."
"Second, I..."
"I choose one, I choose one!" Before Su Quan could even say what the second was, Professor Curt Connors shouted frantically, as if the world would end if he was a second late.
Su Quan couldn't help but chuckle; it seemed he had been completely subdued.
"Come on, transform. Let the lizard come out. I'll say a few words to him so he doesn't come out unaware and start yelling at me again."
Professor Curt Connors shook his head and said in a low voice with his head down, "I... I can't control it. He... he seems unable to get out."
Can't get out?
Does your lizard know Hulk?
There are three special giant corporations in this world: Osborn Industries, Horizon Labs, and the Life Foundation.
These three companies and organizations correspond to the emergence of three important roles.
Osborn Industries: Spider-Man.
Horizon Labs: Morbius the Vampire.
Life Foundation: Venom.
Osborn Industries goes without saying, we'll talk about the Life Foundation later, and let's talk about Horizon Labs.
Horizon Labs is a laboratory focused on scientific and medical research. Although it is not as well-known or influential as the other two, its profitability and authority in the professional field are in no way inferior!
