Dilos ultimately declined to invite Otto Octavius.
Part of the reason was that he did not trust the man, but the most important factor was Otto's excessive arrogance.
Through Dr. Connors's introduction, Dilos naturally gained a further basic understanding of the man.
Otto Octavius was a genius physicist whose theoretical knowledge and practical skills were in no way inferior to Tony Stark's. Moreover, he was the domineering type who absolutely refused to let anyone else interfere with his experiments and stubbornly believed that he was always right.
"Someone like him is certainly highly valuable to recruit, but with his personality, bringing him in now might end with his arrogance destroying my underground base."
After giving it some thought, Dilos decided to consider recruiting the physicist later—preferably after he suffered a string of setbacks and failures in his experiments.
"If he doesn't fail a few times, he'll never understand what humility and improvement mean."
Whether it was the life serum or the regeneration serum, Dilos did not currently need them in large quantities. Therefore, he decided to use a safer method to produce the two serums.
Over the following week, after repairing his armor, Dilos used its shrinking technology to infiltrate Wakanda's treasury and Betty Ross's bedroom in succession. He obtained a certain quantity of Heart-Shaped Herbs, as well as detailed manufacturing data for Nano-Medical Tissue.
Afterward, since Dilos and Dr. Connors were both top-tier biologists and knew each other extremely well, they worked together seamlessly during the experiments. Their progress advanced far faster than expected. What had originally been expected to take a month was completed by the two of them in just one week.
Dr. Connors glanced at the synthesis device, where the progress bars for the life serum and regeneration serum had each reached nearly ten percent. A
