The Ancestors: From Gwen to Spider-Man

Chapter 16 Dr. Lizard

chapter Five

"I'm just one step away now! There's only one last formula left to transfer lizard DNA to humans. You can't stop it now!"

"The last step? Dr. Connors, I heard you say that three years ago, and it's still true today."

"But this has proven its possibility, hasn't it? It just requires some rigorous formulas to find the right node..."

"Come on, even if it works, it won't be on you Connors."

There was a slight silence in the room for two seconds before Connors was heard to continue: "What about... Osborne?"

"Year after year, Mr. Osborne can no longer wait. Fortunately, he does not need to wait anymore."

"What's the meaning?"

"There's more than just lizard projects in the company, right? On the spider side, although there was an accident a month ago, it was a blessing in disguise and there was some new progress."

"I heard that Osborne has been involved in some disputes recently..."

"Those who achieve great things don't stick to trivial matters. For Mr. Osborne, you have to make some sacrifices, right?"

"Asshole! You guys forcibly used them for human experiments!?"

"Whatever you say, it's time to stop."

"..."

The man who was arguing with Connors walked out of the room and bumped into Peter and Gwen. He was stunned for a moment, but he didn't care and left.

Connors also spotted the two of them, with a look of exhaustion and loneliness on his face.

"Gwen...Peter, I'm sorry to make you laugh."

"Dr. Connors, is what you just said true?" Gwen was a little excited. She had interned at Osborne and obviously knew something.

"Did Osborne forcibly use volunteers for human experiments?"

"I'm sorry, Gwen, for you to hear this."

"No, doctor, it's not your fault. I didn't expect Osborne to..." Gwen was very angry.

As a superhero, she cannot tolerate this kind of violation of human life.

Connors also sighed and said, "Come in first."

His office is also filled with data and samples from various experiments.

This middle-aged man is really working hard on this research, and is eager to transfer lizard genes to humans so that they can regenerate lost limbs.

This stems from his experience as a military doctor when he was young. As a result, he saw too many soldiers who were disabled due to war. He himself also broke an arm while saving people.

He is essentially a good person and hopes to restore the limbs of his former comrades. He also longs for the health of his limbs, which makes him place too much trust in this research and become fanatical.

In the end, he became a lizard man, which can only be said to be a fate.

Gwen was a little distracted, so Peter could only speak first: "Doctor, can you tell us about it? It's a genius idea to transfer lizard genes into humans."

Connors glanced at Peter. He didn't expect the young man to be so calm at this time.

"To be precise, this research project is called cross-species gene transfer, and lizards are just one of its branches. The goal is to give people the ability to regenerate their severed limbs."

Connors waved his broken right hand mockingly.

"The ultimate goal of this project is to allow humans to selectively transplant the genes of animals to repair and improve themselves without any defects!"

"If this research project is successful, many diseases will no longer be a problem."

"Spider?" Peter suddenly said.

"You're very perceptive, kid." Connors was finally a little surprised this time.

"Spiders are also a branch of this project."

He looked at Peter carefully.

Peter's insight was undoubtedly astonishing by analyzing this result from just such a few clues.

When doing research, in addition to having a rich knowledge base, sometimes this kind of insight is one of the important reasons for the rapid breakthrough of the project.

He began to cherish his talents.

So, he quickly explained some more in-depth things to Peter.

But what surprised him even more was that from Peter's feedback, it was obvious that he had a certain grasp of these things, and that his thinking and acumen were far beyond his own.

How old is Peter?

He is just a high school student, and now he can actually have a heated discussion with himself, an authoritative expert in the field of biology!?

Connors was in a daze.

What kind of freak is this? Did he inadvertently discover a super genius?

But this did not discourage Connors, but instead aroused his fighting spirit.

He simply brought out the contents of the cross-species gene transfer project to discuss with Peter, and even told some of the difficulties he encountered in his research.

The result completely shocked Connors.

Peter's knowledge base was completely beyond his expectations. Apart from having less experimental experience, he didn't look like a high school student at all.

He is also quick-thinking, and many ideas can bring him a lot of inspiration. Even if he is sometimes stumped by some questions, he can give the correct answer after a short period of thinking.

This made Connors both excited and bitter.

Peter glanced at the [Biology Mastery] on his panel.

He still posted this entry in the past few days.

In addition, with his super vision turned on, he can collect information from the entire office and even the laboratory. With these bonuses, he was able to deal with Connors with ease just now.

Moreover, although his biology is only at the proficient level, his brain power with the blessing of the super brain has already surpassed Connors by an unknown amount, so he can always think of answers quickly and even give Connors inspiration.

What made Peter even more delighted was that he found that during such intense discussions and thinking, he felt that his [biological proficiency] was changing at a rapid speed.

All it takes is an opportunity, and maybe you can reach a higher level.

Gwen was also listening in rapt attention, her eyes bright, of course, mainly focused on Peter.

In the end, all problems still return to the original point,

formula.

Connors can't find the formula!

Peter's brain was thinking rapidly, and the information from the entire laboratory group became his nourishment, gestating and sprouting in his brain.

In the extraordinary movie, Peter Parker helped Connors through the formula left by his father.

But Peter himself confirmed that in this world, his deceased parents were just ordinary people and left nothing for him.

The protagonist of this world is Gwen, not Peter Parker.

Connors also looked at Peter with some expectancy.

Maybe, this child can bring him another surprise today?

At this time,

boom!

A violent explosion sounded, not far from here, no, it should be said on a certain floor of the Osborne Building!

Peter and Gwen's spider senses rang loudly at the same time, and a crazy, high-pitched laughter appeared in their minds.

"Oh Peter, I have to leave for a moment..."

Gwen quickly came to her senses and took one last look at Peter.

"Go ahead, Dr. Connors and I are waiting here for you to come back." Peter said.

"What happened, Gwen?"

After Gwen left, Connors said with some doubts.

"It's probably just a little trouble, otherwise we should sound the alarm now." Peter smiled and said:

"As for Gwen, girls always need some private space. Dr. Connors, shall we continue?"

Connors perked up and said, "Of course."

He has fully recognized Peter's ability as a scientific researcher.

Now, the two are working together to conquer the final formula...

I originally wanted to code the next chapter in the evening, but my colleague had something to go home for, so I took over his shift that night, so it was a bit late.
