The Ancestors: From Gwen to Spider-Man

Chapter 20 The first choice

Chapter nine

Connors' new look left Gwen confused.

Why, why does my school have this kind of monster?

But now is not the time to explore this. This big guy is very dangerous at first glance. It needs to be... The time has come for Spider-Woman to appear.

As for why Connors turned into a lizard man and appeared in school, we have to talk about it after the Green Goblin incident.

The exposure of Norman Osborne's identity directly caused the entire Osborne Group's stock price to plummet, and the entire company was thrown into chaos.

Among them, the cross-species gene transfer project left by Norman Osborne has undoubtedly received great attention and many parties.

Fortunately, Connors also worked out the genetic formula that had been stagnant for many years at this time, and suddenly became the center of the whirlpool.

In this kind of transaction of money and power, if you don't have enough strength, the brighter you are, the faster you will die.

That's the case with Connors, a bigwig in biology and an authority on genetic engineering. These identities do not bring him any weight.

He was quickly kicked out and used his previous connections to temporarily find a job at Midtown Science and Technology High School.

But at this point, the success of the lizard serum is imminent, how can you make Connors willing to give up?

He spent all his savings over the years and continued his research, finally producing the first version of the serum and successfully restoring the severed limbs of the mice.

This attracted the attention of the still somewhat disconnected Osborne Group.

They quickly came to the door and gave two choices in an extremely arrogant and domineering manner.

Step up efforts to put it into commercial use and save the company's stock, otherwise it will be banned from further research.

Some people may ask, why does Osborne prohibit others from researching? In fact, it really can.

Connors worked for Osborne over the years and left too many patents and copyrights behind, and he couldn't get around them if he wanted to continue.

Therefore, Connors, who had just taken a step towards his life goal, found that his road was blocked again.

The funny thing is that these things that are blocking him were all developed by him with great pains.

Grief, powerlessness, and anger were tormenting him. Moreover, his savings were almost exhausted and he could no longer support himself.

In desperation, Connors had no choice but to fight his last and personally...become the first experimenter of the lizard serum.

He fainted, and when he woke up, he found that his right hand, which had been disabled for many years, had grown back.

It was so beautiful and cute, with skin as pink and sensitive as a baby. Connors was lost in thought and looked at his right hand tenderly.

Then, he felt hungry.

This is normal. After all, energy cannot be generated out of thin air. It must have taken a huge amount of energy to grow this arm.

Connors didn't take it seriously and just rummaged through the refrigerator for something to eat.

Milk, cereal, meat, and fruit, and meat, meat...meat!

Where’s the meat!?

Why is it gone so quickly? Why can’t I eat enough!?

Connors punched the refrigerator angrily, smashing it to pieces.

A huge lizard stood up from the remains of the refrigerator, its eyes completely filled with animality, and the predator's instinct took control of his body.

Food! I need to hunt...

Lizardman Connors stretched out his huge and sharp claws and tore apart the lockers in the corridor. His bright yellow vertical pupils were staring at the student in front of him, Gordon.

His legs were so frightened that he fell to the ground and had no time to escape.

"You...don't come over!" Gordon yelled in panic.

Prey...the lizard man identified it in his mind.

He opened a huge kiss, revealing his sharp teeth and stringy saliva, and bit down on Gordon.

Gwen, who had transformed into Spider-Woman, finally appeared. At the last moment, the spider silk pulled Gordon away, and the lizard man had nothing to lose.

"Hey! Eating people is uncivilized, big guy!"

As soon as the lizard man came out, she pulled Peter and ran to a safe place so that she could deal with the lizard monster with peace of mind.

Then, he sent Peter away on the pretext of informing the teacher and returned alone.

The lizard man's eye membranes opened and closed, and he said: "Prey...prey, enemy..."

"What?" Gwen was stunned.

The lizard man had already pounced on him, and Gwen quickly dodged.

In the eyes of the lizard man, it was the spider that was also a predator that had just stolen his prey.

He is now defending his prey from other predators.

The two were chasing each other in the corridors of the school. Gwen's scalp was numb.

Unlike the two agility players I met in the past, the reptilian lizardman is too strong and has deadly sharp claws and teeth that can easily tear her skin.

Must not be touched!

However, the next second, as soon as she tied the lizard man with the spider silk, the lizard man broke free with his backhand and swung his tail. His whole body was slapped away, and he fell to the ground and rolled twice.

Gwen clutched her abdomen and struggled to get up, but the huge force knocked her out briefly.

The lizard man had already stepped on the wall and rushed over, opening a huge kiss and biting it down.

"Despicable thief...go to hell..."

At the critical moment, Gwen could only hold the lizard man's upper and lower jaws with both hands, barely resisting.

"Hey! Guys, your bad breath is really bad!"

"Roar!"

Gwen's words seemed to anger the lizard man, and the force of his bite became even stronger.

Her arms were trembling, supporting her as she slowly bit down the huge sharp teeth.

Suddenly, there was a bang!

The lizard man's head was smashed, making a good sound, and this sound directly interrupted his attack.

He turned around and saw in the shadows, the thin Gordon was raising his head and holding a bottle of fire extinguisher in fear.

"You...you, don't come over!" Gordon yelled.

Even the lizard man was a little confused at this time.

What? Didn’t you kid sneak up on me? And you told me not to go there?

"Roar!!!" The lizard man roared angrily! He stretched out his big green claws and wanted to slap this bastard to death.

Phew! Phew!

Two threads of spider silk wrapped around his hand, and at the same time, a figure ran out of the corner and pulled Gordon away again.

Gwen also took advantage of this opportunity to complete a famous scene, firing spider silk around the lizard man, completely wrapping it into a cocoon.

Gordon was still panting heavily from the exciting scene just now, and his heart was beating fast.

"Why did you go up just now, Gordon?" Peter's voice came to his ears.

Gordon looked at Peter, who had just saved him again, tried hard to calm his heartbeat, and said:

"I, I don't know. I should have run, I was scared, but...if I didn't do something at that time, Spider-Woman might have been in danger."

"I feel like I can finally be worthy of myself for once."

Peter was a little surprised, but he quickly smiled and said, "You'd better not have another chance. I don't guarantee that I will be able to save you next time."

"I...I won't dare to do it next time."

"You did a good job Gordon, you made an... unexpected choice. I didn't expect you to be the first one. Now, run quickly, it's very dangerous here."

"Oh... ok! What about you? Aren't you going to run?"

"Me? No, I have to stay and help her, otherwise I may lose miserably this time."

…

There was a bit of a glitch, but in the end I managed to avoid it by using some tricks.
