"Symbiote?"
Hearing this, Anton suddenly understood.
"That's right, the armor on Harry is made from a Symbiote."
Eddie nodded, his expression serious: "Venom told me that he smelled a similar scent on Harry. That armor probably has all the abilities of a Symbiote... Moreover, that armor seems lifeless, not like a living being. Osborn Corporation probably has a way to control Symbiotes."
"I see... It seems that Osborn Corporation has accomplished what the Life Foundation couldn't."
Anton quickly grasped the whole situation.
He hadn't forgotten that Osborn Corporation had taken over the Life Foundation a long time ago.
Despite S.H.I.E.L.D.'s involvement after the Life Foundation's collapse, they could only negotiate with Osborn Corporation, not interfere with its specific operations.
Experiments on the Symbiotes continued.
However, these experiments on alien creatures transitioned from an illegal phase to a regular one.
Currently, it seemed that after Osborn Corporation took over the Symbiote experiments from the Life Foundation, they finally researched an effective enhancement route, relying on Osborn's vast talent system and advantages in biotechnology.
The Bio-Armor Harry displayed on stage was undoubtedly the most irrefutable evidence.
Yes, Bio-Armor.
Anton clearly realized what the black armor Harry was wearing at the time truly was.
Judging from Harry's calm demeanor, the Symbiote had, in all likelihood, lost its self-awareness and had completely become a tool.
This Bio-Armor is the ultimate weapon, crafted from the "corpses" of Symbiotes.
"As a major corporation, Osborn Corporation is willing to take on more social responsibility... Maintaining peace and social stability is our unwavering duty."
"After lengthy discussions, we have established a special department."
"This department will collaborate with the NYPD Task Force, and I, Harry Osborn, as the Chairman of Osborn Corporation and the leader of this special department, will join the NYPD Task Force as a special consultant, participating in the Task Force's daily operations... just like those turtles everyone loves."
After the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles joined the Task Force, their fame skyrocketed, quickly winning the recognition of New Yorkers and becoming the city's official mascots.
The NYPD Task Force even changed its badge to feature the image of a turtle.
Of course, that's not the main point.
At this moment, Harry was suspended in mid-air, speaking while maintaining a downward gaze, looking down at everyone before him.
However, his attitude didn't seem condescending.
Instead, his tone was quite sincere, and he came across as very earnest.
Pausing, and before anyone could speak, Harry continued, "In a way, I will be a new superhero, serving everyone. However, I'm not a volunteer law enforcer, but a police consultant who can participate in the NYPD Task Force's law enforcement."
"Police consultant, participating in law enforcement… a new superhero?"
People looked at each other.
It was the first time they had witnessed the birth of a superhero in such a formal setting.
As for Tony Stark, who announced he was Iron Man in a similar setting, that didn't count.
A press conference wasn't where Iron Man was born.
There's photographic evidence.
The road outside the Stark Industries headquarters building is widely recognized as the birthplace of Iron Man.
In the photo, Tony Stark, as Iron Man, is being ground into the pavement by Iron Monger.
Even now, many people still keep these color photos, which originated from the Daily Bugle's front page.
Tony's haters each have one, using them to ridicule Tony. At the same time, everyone, including Anton, Tony, and Justin Hammer, all displayed expressions of disbelief that went beyond their own understanding.
Publicly announcing that he would become a new superhero, and had already started cooperating with the NYPD to participate in law enforcement...
That's just too showy! Compared to this, the other superheroes are all a ragtag bunch, while Harry quietly sneaked his way into becoming the regular army.
Justin's face was somewhat contorted.
He certainly understood why Harry would announce this news in front of everyone.
Wasn't it because Tony Stark became Iron Man, attracting countless people's attention and driving up Stark Industries' stock, thus greatly benefiting Stark Industries?
Osborn Corporation clearly intended to follow suit, launching a superhero representing Osborn Corporation to attract attention.
Among the existing members of Osborn Corporation, Harry was of course the most representative!
Justin looked at the audience's expressions, his expression twisting even more.
Apparently, Osborn Corporation had succeeded!
After today, Osborn Corporation would receive a lot of attention.
He couldn't predict what would happen later, but as long as Osborn Corporation could maintain this level of attention, plus Harry's promise to truly participate in the NYPD Task Force's law enforcement, strengthening the crackdown on criminals and publicity, Osborn Corporation could, like Stark Industries, stand undefeated for a long time.
At this moment, the pressure that Osborn Corporation brought to Justin Hammer had already surpassed Stark Industries.
After all, Stark Industries had withdrawn from the arms industry.
Seeing Harry's actions, Osborn Corporation didn't intend to scale back its arms business. Instead, it was going on the offensive, promoting Osborn Corporation's weapons in front of the police, the military, and even the public, by taking on the guise of a superhero.
"A truly clever move..."
Justin's expression was icy as he stared at Harry on the stage, his gaze like a blade: "You little brat, I underestimated you!"
Anton and Tony also quickly realized Harry's true objective.
Becoming a superhero was just a means to an end, not what Harry claimed about justice and peace.
If it were really about justice, among the existing superheroes, perhaps only the naive and romantic Spider-Man could be considered to fit that description.
Anton touched his chin, his impression of Harry changing somewhat.
From initially approaching the Daily Bugle to now standing on his own, in just half a year, this young man had become cunning and crafty.
No wonder Norman had confidence in his son when he was lucid.
Then again.
If Harry planned to become a superhero, what kind of alias would he choose for himself?
It couldn't possibly be the Second Green Goblin, could it?
Anton fell into deep thought.
Harry didn't immediately announce his alias; it seemed he didn't intend to choose one.
After introducing Osborn Corporation's plans and his own plans to debut as a superhero, he began to promote Osborn Corporation's latest technology and the defense products the company would be launching next.
By "defense," of course, he meant weapons.
This made Justin's expression even uglier.
However.
"Even if you do this, Osborn Corporation will still be left far behind by Hammer Industries… In the future, it will be the era of Hammer Industries!"
Justin wasn't flustered; instead, he revealed a confident smile.
His trump card,
exceeded everyone's imagination.
