Damn it!" Peter cursed inwardly, and could only helplessly wait for Tim's visit to Norman Osborn to end quickly.
Chapter 36: Bronski's Little Trick
In a hospital for disabled veterans in New York City, Bronski walked in with a dazed look in his eyes. He recalled the night two days ago. If it weren't for that mysterious woman, he might have been the only one admitted to this hospital.
Whenever he thought of that guy's fist and the bloody bodies of his comrades, he couldn't help but feel a little scared and ashamed. He wanted to defeat the green guy with his own hands.
He came here today to visit a former comrade-in-arms, a young man. During the mission of capturing Hulk, his spine was broken and he could no longer stand up. He also lost his fertility. In addition to the fractured spine, his legs had also been amputated. Compared with those dead soldiers, this tragic situation was even more torture for him to live.
If he had become disabled like this, he might have realized that he was a warrior, a pure warrior, and he loved fighting.
If he had the combat experience he has now ten years ago, he might recall sitting in his office drinking tea, reading the newspaper, and occasionally training new recruits and giving inspiring speeches.
But he is already very old, almost forty. Perhaps for ordinary people, this is middle age, and they still have at least twenty or thirty years to live. But for a warrior like him, forty years old is very old, and his body can hardly keep up with his reaction speed.
He came here, first to visit his comrades, and second to see what his future residence would be like. He knew the fate of a soldier, either to die in the line of duty or to be injured in the line of duty.
Later, the Army might award him a Medal of Bravery. This bronze medal is produced in ZS City in GD, China. The cost of one is only 18 RMB, which is less than 3 US dollars when converted into US dollars.
Of course, if the U.S. military's order volume is large enough, Chinese manufacturers will almost certainly offer a discount and provide free shipping directly to the Pentagon. The military will use this discounted medal, which is expected to cost only two dollars, to express its gratitude for the contributions these soldiers have made to their heroic battles for the U.S. military.
Then he, like many of his injured companions, was paid a government pension and dumped in a hospital for disabled veterans to fend for themselves.
Of course, he had nothing to complain about. It was just the fate of a soldier. Compared to being disabled and left to fend for himself here, he felt that dying on a mission might be the best option.
Bronski thought a lot, but what excited him most was the super soldier plan mentioned by General Ross. He thought clearly that this was his only chance to defeat Hulk.
This time he came to say goodbye to the past, because he would no longer need comrades in arms.
"Excuse me, which room is Joseph Bronton in?" Emil Bronsky asked the medical staff here with a bouquet of flowers in his hand.
"Okay, Joseph is in room 46," the medical staff replied.
"OK, thank you." Emil Bronsky thanked him politely and found Ward 46, where there was a young man in his twenties. He should be full of hope and sunshine at this age, but at this moment, he only had the dejection of a dying man and his pupils were ashen.
Emil Bronsky placed the bouquet of flowers in his hand on Joseph's bedside. He did not say anything, but just looked at Joseph quietly.
After a while, there was a commotion outside. Bronsky stood up and prepared to go out to see what was going on.
Not long after, Bronski walked in again and said, "Osborne Group wants to test a new serum. It has made a breakthrough in animal testing, allowing mice with broken legs to regenerate their limbs. The probability of success in human trials is very high. Do you want to participate?"
Joseph, who had been silent for a long time, turned his head, his eyes gleaming with hope that had not been there before, and said, "I want to participate, help me!"
"No problem." Bronski smiled. He didn't mind doing this favor, and he also wanted to see whether this so-called serum could have this effect. If it did, it would mean that as long as he didn't die, he would be able to keep fighting, which would be a good thing for him.
Soon, Bronski won the permission for this experiment. All the disabled soldiers watched the experiment eagerly, because for them, it was like a new life. However, the risks of this human experiment were unknown, and they were not willing to risk their lives to do the experiment.
Because after the experiment, there will definitely be a more effective serum, and they will be able to be reborn.
Soon, the Osborne Group took Joseph and Emil away.
Taken to a special place, prepared for human experiments.
Emil Bronsky watched from the side, and a test tube full of serum gave him some ideas. He knew this doctor, a doctor with no medical ethics who would do anything for money.
He just expressed his desire to see the serum and gave the guy $10,000, and got one-third of the serum. The remaining two-thirds could be diluted with water to complete the experiment.
Even if he failed, the impact would not be great. In his eyes, Joseph would be worse off dead than alive.
For Dr. Reed, curing diseases and saving lives is just a job, and work requires payment.
I'm sorry, Dr. Reed won't work if he doesn't get enough pay. Such a cruel doctor is not welcome in regular hospitals.
But it is needed at this hospital for disabled veterans funded by the Osborne Group.
Because this doctor doesn't care about medical ethics, nor does he care about the oath he took when he was studying medicine. He just needs money!
Osborne Group gave him $5,000 to do the experiment, but Emil gave him $10,000, saying he just wanted to see the serum. Of course! Money is God, and if God has a request, why wouldn't he do it?
"Joseph, this is the best chance in your life." Dr. Reed came to the operating room in the special treatment room with the serum that had faded a little.
"Doctor, can I really recover my body?" Joseph asked with hope in his eyes.
"Of course, of course. This is the latest technology of the Osborne Group, which can repair all human injuries. Even if your spine is broken and your legs are amputated, you can still get better." Dr. Reed tried to make his tone softer, as if this would make his words more credible.
But he didn't know that this tone made his voice seem even more hypocritical and cunning.
"Get ready, Joseph. You will usher in your new life. In just a moment, your life will never be the same again." Dr. Reed slowly injected the serum into Joseph's blood.
The pale blue serum began to work under Joseph's longing eyes.
Chapter 37: Lizardmen
"I'm sorry to have to help you, but I have to do this. You know, this is a necessary safety procedure." Dr. Reed said to Joseph, and at the same time signaled the assistants on both sides to come forward, tie a safety strap on Joseph, and fix him firmly to the hospital bed.
Because we don't know what kind of dangers this experiment may cause, this is almost a necessary safety item.
"Okay, Joseph, have a good rest. When you wake up after a good sleep, you will find that you are cured." Dr. Reed comforted him, but it was a pity that this empty comfort could not bring any security to people, and it further reflected Reed's guilty conscience.
Joseph was tied to the hospital bed and did not answer. He now had a stronger desire for the experiment to succeed than anyone else. He was still young and did not want to lie in bed forever.
Dr. Reed left the operating room and closed the door. He stood in the monitoring room and observed Joseph's changes through the camera.
The mutation of the lizard's genes occurred faster than expected. In just twenty minutes, Joseph's body began to change, and his broken limbs began to grow!
Like a silkworm weaving a cocoon, calluses begin to grow layer by layer on the broken limbs. This is actually a state of rapid skin regeneration and rapid aging.
"Give Joseph a large amount of artificial nutrition to speed up the repair of his limbs." Reed was a little surprised by the serum that the Osborne Group tested this time. If this serum is really successful, it will change the world.
He also had some expectations, so he increased Joseph's nutritional supplements. After all, growing a severed limb is a consumption process. He is essentially consuming the energy and nutrients in his body to allow the severed limb to continue growing.
Emil Bronsky looked at Joseph's rapidly growing legs and the serum in his hand with fiery eyes. The ten thousand dollars was well spent. Now that he knew the results of the experiment, it was time for him to leave.
Emil Bronsky walked out and he was now going to undergo experiments in the Super Soldier Project.
He will become stronger and younger!
Under Reed's order, the nutrient solution that was originally injected slowly into Joseph began to be injected faster. A large amount of nutrients replenished the consumption in Joseph's body, allowing his severed limbs to grow faster.
The one who felt everything most clearly was Joseph himself. He felt that his originally mutilated limbs were growing rapidly.
The growth of his limbs was accompanied by excruciating pain, as if his bones were being broken into pieces and then pieced back together.
But he didn't care, because he had experienced pain that was more severe than this. Do you know how painful it is to have your spine broken?
How painful is it to have your legs twisted into a knot?
The greater pain is the process of waiting to die, which is simply despairing.
