Ultimate Green Goblin?

So this is the reagent the Little Green Goblin pursued in the movie...

Not impressive—9% success rate. But for someone on death's door, it really is a lifeline.

"Doctor Connors, do you remember the reagent I injected into my father last time?"

Harry operated the fabricator.

"I believe it can enhance the effect of the Self-Healing Factor you mentioned, thereby overcoming the side effects."

"Exactly!" Connors nodded. "That's what I think too. But whether it truly works wonders still requires experimentation."

Soon, the fabricator dispensed the active enhancer.

"Two million dollars per dose in cost. Now it's in your hands, Doctor."

"Two million dollars?"

"Yes, two million. Just the cost."

Connors knew this reagent would be precious, but he never imagined it would be this expensive.

In reality, Harry had obtained the technology from the system. The most significant cost of drug R&D was zero for him.

As for why he priced it at two million, Harry estimated the explosion caused by the Hand and Harmony Society as a research expense. Two million in cost was reasonable enough.

For extended lifespan, there would always be buyers.

The experiment consumed ten doses of the reagent. Harry and Connors finally determined the dosage and ratio for the final version of the enhancer.

Connors wanted to continue experimenting, but Harry had already received a prompt from the system.

"Doctor Connors, this is what we need."

Harry looked at the two vials of reagent shimmering like emeralds and called a halt to Connors' operation.

"But... isn't the dosage too high? This far exceeds our estimated safe range. There's even been a Crystallization Phenomenon."

Faced with Connors' doubt, Harry shook his head and stepped onto the test platform himself.

"Inject it now. Call my father over too. This reagent might also be effective for his condition."

The system had already confirmed the reagent was harmless—though the description suggested it was likely only suitable for the Osborn family. For Harry to hesitate any longer would be ungrateful.

Norman arrived at the lab thirty minutes later. By then, Harry was already standing inside the enhancement chamber.

He knew the Green Goblin Enhancer better than anyone. Upon hearing the news, his first instinct was to stop Harry from proceeding directly with the experiment, but it was too late.

"Connors! Why didn't you stop him!"

Norman's expression was terrifying, especially as green keratin surfaced on his skin, making him look like he was about to turn into some kind of monster.

"Ahem... that reagent is very dangerous! You can't let Harry inject it like this!"

"It was Harry's decision! I advised him against it, but he said the reagent was absolutely safe. Trust him, Norman!"

Connors didn't look like he was lying. Norman could only turn his gaze to Harry. Finally, he let go of Connors and walked over to the Vital Signs Monitor.

The data on the Vital Signs Monitor was all normal, except that Harry's heartbeat was alarmingly loud.

It sounded like war drums pounding.

Thump-thump—thump-thump!

The Human Enhancement Chamber simultaneously supplied Harry with the enhancer, gas, and nutrients. The process lasted several hours.

When the gas dissipated, Harry's body stood bare before their eyes.

Every muscle on his body seemed meticulously sculpted, brimming with surging vitality.

"Harry, can you hear me?" Connors opened the intercom.

"Yes, Doctor." Harry's voice was as steady as ever, unchanged.

This enhancement ended faster than the Spartan Project. Perhaps because he had already been enhanced once, Harry felt no pain at all—only a sense of relief.

"Good. Now let's run a Cognitive Test. See this dot?"

A red light dot appeared before Harry.

"Good. Now follow the dot with your gaze... Good, normal."

"What is this?" A crocodile appeared on the screen inside the enhancement chamber.

"A crocodile. A green crocodile."

Conners proceeded with cognitive tests and psychological inquiries in turn, and Harry cooperated fully.

Both Harry and Conners understood this was necessary—any sign of resistance, irritability, or other negative emotions during the inquiry would be deemed abnormal.

"...All project phases complete. The enhancer has caused no cognitive damage to the subject... Now beginning physical examination."

With the most critical mental check finished, Norman clenched his fist in excitement—another groundbreaking technology!

And this time, the breakthrough was built on his research!

"Wait a moment..." Conners' puzzled tone made Norman's heart skip a beat.

"The sampler can't reach the specified depth... Your skin—there seems to be something hidden beneath it?"

"Yes, I can feel it too." Harry glanced at the sampler. "I can control it. It should be fine now."

"What is it?" Norman leaned in.

The sampler quickly pierced into Harry's body, retrieving comprehensive data.

"This is... this layer blocking the sampler's penetration—its amino acid sequence shows 99% similarity to the protein transcribed by the retrovirus!"

"Unbelievable... The protein produced by the retrovirus has denatured, forming a tough stratum corneum... The enhancer altered the virus's RNA, turning this protein into a harmless stratum corneum, hidden just beneath your skin!"

Harry now understood—the retrovirus really was the Osborn family's hereditary disease. This setting existed in this world too, just not as overtly as in The Amazing Spider-Man movies.

And the Spartan Project's modifications hadn't eliminated the virus either, but now it was no longer a problem.

Unlike ordinary skin, this stratum could even be controlled by him, as naturally as breathing.

"So that's it... Harry, you're a genius! How did you know this concentration of enhancer would achieve exactly this effect?"

Conners was genuinely impressed, but Harry could hardly say he was cheating with foreknowledge.

"Inspiration, you know. Hard to explain."

Harry clenched his fist. This layer of tissue could even break through the subcutaneous layer and rise to the skin's surface.

And unlike the scaly texture in the original story, this stuff looked more like emerald, glittering under the light.

He even suspected that if the Osborn Group marketed it as a new type of gemstone, people would actually buy it.

So the Osborn family really did have a heirloom.

Harry ran his fingers over the stratum corneum. Now, he felt like he could even go toe-to-toe with Spider-Man.
