A violent fire exploded, and a black shadow moved swiftly between the tall buildings like a flowing shadow. Finally, with the help of a tentacle, it stood steadily on a tall building.
"Damn it, they really dare!" The ferocious face revealed half of little Harry's face. Looking down from a high place, looking at the vehicles burning like flames below, his eyes and expression showed a complex look of shock and ruthlessness.
Little Harry didn't believe this was an unexpected attack. He believed that regardless of whether there was evidence, he should always assume the worst. This was what Big Harry had told him.
He could understand those people's desire to collude and kick him out of the board of directors and keep him away from Osborne's power circle, but he could not accept that they were using such a method to force him to leave after encountering resistance.
If Big Harry hadn't prepared protective measures for him beforehand, even if he hadn't died, he would have been seriously injured. By then, let alone taking charge of Osborn, I'm afraid by the time he recovered, everything would have been settled.
A strange man with a strange laugh was flying as nimbly as a bird between the tall buildings. Under the gaze of little Harry, he gradually disappeared between the tall buildings and disappeared from his sight.
The other party just launched a sudden attack.
Little Harry knew this person, a criminal master who had recently become famous, codenamed Vulture.
"Why don't you fight back?" Little Harry, whose body was controlled by the symbiote, communicated with it. Yes, the symbiote in his body also had a will, but this will was more like a set program, rigid and inflexible.
When little Harry first learned that it could communicate, he wanted to communicate with it more, but he soon became bored and uninterested because it either remained silent to his questions or gave irrelevant answers.
"Mission One: Protect your safety and get you out of danger if necessary. This has the highest priority until there are new orders!"
The symbiote's consciousness communicated with little Harry.
"Can't the problem be solved?" Little Harry knew that Big Harry had made this setting for his own good, but at this moment, he could clearly feel the surging and powerful force in his body, but he could only watch the attacker escape, which made him very unhappy.
"Task two: If you are unable to leave the dangerous area and are surrounded, you can launch a counterattack and break out. I have already sent a message for help." The symbiote answered little Harry in a serious tone.
"In other words, you have informed Harry in some way? That is, another me?" Little Harry composed himself and ignored the emergency brake below and the bodyguards who hurried over to put out the fire and rescue, and focused on communicating with the symbiote.
"We have our own mental network," the symbiote replied, then continued, "The danger has left. Please stay here and wait for support."
Not long after these words were spoken, the propeller of a helicopter, accompanied by noise and strong wind, hovered over the high-rise building where little Harry was. After picking up little Harry, the helicopter quickly disappeared into the night.
Osborne House.
basement.
"Thank you. If it weren't for you, I might have suffered serious consequences this time." When little Harry saw the busy big Harry for the first time, he became excited again after just calming down on the way here. He quickly stepped forward, hugged big Harry, and said gratefully.
"It's nothing. We're one now. Helping you is helping me." Big Harry wasn't surprised by Little Harry's agitated actions. He had already received real-time information from the symbiote, so he understood his own high emotions in this world. After all, he had just had a brush with death. As someone who had been pampered since childhood, it was normal for him to have never experienced such excitement.
"You're right." Little Harry calmed down after hearing his words, took two steps back, and nodded. "Since those guys did this, I don't think I'll have any more scruples."
"Handle it yourself. The sooner we seize Osborne's power and establish our voice and authority, the sooner we can leverage Osborne's capital to rapidly expand and grow."
The equipment in this lab is indeed "high-end," but its usefulness to us will diminish. We need more equipment, more helpers, more connections. Confined to this small underground lab, we can't make Osborne the world's greatest corporate giant, nor can we find our way home, let alone deal with the enemy who might attack us at any moment.
We don't have much time." Big Harry nodded in satisfaction.
"Are there not enough instruments and materials in the laboratory? I can help you find some more." Little Harry said subconsciously.
"No, no, no, there's no room for any more equipment here. We can't cram any more things in here. We have the technology, and what we need now is manpower and scale. It's Osborne Industries! And the interest groups tied to Osborne Industries." Big Harry instructed, "You can take out those technologies, authorize what needs to be authorized, and bind the interests that need to be bound.
You can also recruit some new partners to fill out Osborn's subsequent alliances. Money isn't the most important thing to us right now. If it can help our plans, we can give them some benefits."
"Promote psychic power?" Little Harry understood.
"Yes, promote psychic energy. As long as we can spread it widely, we will be invincible. When the time comes, it won't be difficult to get back the benefits you paid.
When I connect to my universe and re-establish contact with the Time Administration, if you are willing, I can recommend you to join it and let you see a wider landscape and world." Big Harry nodded heavily.
Without the help of data, his research and manufacturing progress was far too slow. Once people have experienced the ultimate convenience, it becomes increasingly difficult to return to the slower pace of scientific research.
Big Harry now deeply missed the existence of the data dimension, which had dramatically increased the speed at which researchers could produce finished products. He was already accustomed to using the data dimension to discuss and exhaustively analyze his research, paying for samples, and then reversing the manufacturing process based on the process to achieve mass production.
But without data, he could only collect materials, adjust the equipment, and then try to manufacture the finished product step by step. Although he had the skills, this process inevitably took a long time.
In particular, various technologies require different instruments, and most of these instruments need to be purchased. There are only a very small number of familiar companies in the world that can manufacture these instruments, and these companies are not short of orders. Even if you take shortcuts with connections and money, it still takes a certain amount of time.
Not to mention some devices that do not exist in this world and can only be customized according to Big Harry's needs.
…
Osborne has been particularly active these days, occupying the front page headlines of many mainstream newspapers.
First, Osborn's heir was attacked, and the police department, which had received Osborn's donation, searched the city for any trace of the Vulture. Then, Harry Osborn, who was thought to be seriously injured, was not only intact, but also inexplicably won the subsequent shareholders' meeting and took control of the company.
In turn, some losers had to start thinking about their way out. They were forced to retreat again and again by the vigorous new alliance led by Harry. Finally, they had to leave Osborne sadly and sell their stocks to those pharmaceutical giants and energy giants.
After they left in disgrace, Osborne announced the existence of the Lizard Potion and authorized it to several pharmaceutical companies of Osborne's new major shareholders. These companies had sufficient connections and capabilities to help the drug be launched on the market quickly.
The first move of little Harry, who had just secured his position, was to acquire a construction company under the puzzled attention of everyone, and apply to undertake expensive and thankless projects such as the renovation of public facilities in big cities.
It was revealed that the expenditure on this project reached an astonishing level, which caused all the media to secretly laugh at little Harry while praising him in the media.
Later, there was a rumor that Osborne Industries had a new set of engineering machinery technology that could greatly speed up the construction period while ensuring quality and quantity. Little Harry planned to showcase this city public works as a GG model.
Over the next year, Osborne Industries suddenly became a frequent fixture in the media. Every so often, before the previous story had completely cooled, a new hot topic would emerge. Osborne Industries continuously churned out new technologies, many of which could be described as world-changing.
The inventor of these technologies is Harry Osborn, the new head of Osborn Industries. As the patent owner and inventor of these technologies, Harry Osborn has received the same attention as a star.
Medicine, chemicals, food, energy, machinery, and intelligence.
Over the past year, Osborne Industries' expansion has been breathtaking. It has also had a profound, disruptive impact on the world's existing technological landscape. The patent barriers erected by those giants have been thwarted by Osborne Industries' new technology. Fortunately, Osborne Industries has licensed its technology and implemented a complex system of cross-shareholdings.
As Osborn Industries became more and more famous, Harry's reputation in the scientific and technological community also grew, and the number of scientific researchers recruited by Osborn Industries also increased day by day.
Or rather, from the day Harry officially took the helm of Osborn, the recruitment of scientific talent had never ceased. Harry Osborn, like a madman, poured the vast majority of the company's profits into one research project after another. His own success silenced all dissenters and shareholders. While they felt bad about the money being poured out, they couldn't stop Harry's actions.
The other party has considerable control over the board of directors and enjoys a fanatical idol-like status in the hearts of employees, especially Osborne researchers. Even for their partners and themselves, they rely on the other party's technology and the benefits created by these technologies.
With Osborne's dull tact and superb skills that are not used by other real scientific researchers, everyone knows that there is something wrong with Osborne's current state. Everyone believes that Osborne's state cannot last. Everyone is waiting for Osborne to stop, or even face difficulties because of his radicalism. However, those important technologies that are continuously introduced have always stimulated Osborne's stock price to rise again and again.
Among Osborn's many laboratories, apart from the projects Harry Osborn himself was in charge of, the most outstanding and comparable ones were the project team led by Reed Richards and Susan Stone, who were fired by a giant company due to an accident.
Osborne's unique research atmosphere and relatively generous funding allocations were a welcome change for Reed Richards, who had always struggled with funding. He consistently developed a variety of remarkable devices and consistently completed Harry's assigned research tasks on time. This quickly distinguished him from the other investors, earning him a position as a key researcher contracted and trained by Osborne. Reed Richards' high completion rate and technological output also earned him more funding and a growing reliance on his project team.
Finally, after consulting with Harry, Harry Jr. brought him, Susan, and the others into Osborn's core technical team, tasked with researching psychic powers. Reed, encountering this mystical energy for the first time, was instantly captivated. He immersed himself in its analysis and research with such frenzy that he almost forgot about food and sleep. He even forgot about his girlfriend, Susan Stone. As Reed's girlfriend, Susan was clearly prepared for this kind of behavior and had become accustomed to it.
She could understand her boyfriend's obsession. She was also interested in psychic powers and had a strong desire to research them, but she was not as obsessed as her boyfriend.
In the past, she disliked Reed's state because, once he fell into it, he would ignore her and everyone else. This made her angry. But now, she was no longer so. Instead, she supported Reed's obsession. Reed told her that once they thoroughly studied psychic energy, they could easily use it to restore their physical changes to normal. They could even rekindle this power when needed.
In other words, they can freely control the switch of their own abilities. Then Ben Grimm can also be restored to human form and start a new life.
