Chapter 59: Banner's Suffering! Serum Injection!
"Jiang Bai, what's up with these two pets of yours? Animals with superpowers?"
"Nothing. You should hurry up and find Bruce Banner's location, and also invite Zhao Hailun to join us. Professor X also needs an invitation."
"Alright, to be honest, it feels like I'm doing all the work."
"Didn't I invite Sentinel to join just now? I'll go with you to invite Professor X then!"
Tony looked at Tom and Jerry with curiosity and asked, but Jiang Bai didn't intend to answer him. He changed the subject, telling Tony to quickly find Banner's location and invite Zhao Hailun to join. Currently, the Illuminati only had three members, which was far from enough.
Hearing Jiang Bai's words, Tony looked at Jiang Bai resentfully and said that he had been doing all the work from the beginning, while Jiang Bai had been lounging around the Villa like a lord every day. In response to Tony's complaints, he immediately brought up his credit for inviting Sentinel to join to shut him up. This time, Tony indeed had nothing to say.
After leaving the Illuminati Base and returning to the Villa, he spoke to Tom and Jerry:
"Can you two help me make something that can clear toxins from the body? There will be a reward if you do it well."
He told Tom and Jerry what he wanted to make. Hearing that there was a reward, they nodded and vanished in a flash from Jiang Bai's sight, running back to their room to start tinkering! This item was prepared for Tony.

Meanwhile, Banner had already arrived in New York and secretly entered his former laboratory, searching for the experimental data from back then. He found nothing! He had thought it was taken by the Military. As he was about to leave, he saw his girlfriend, Betty, walking out of the university, holding hands with a man.
He saw this scene, and it pained his heart! After letting out a sigh, he walked outside and arrived at a pizza shop he was very familiar with. The owner was an elder figure from his past and was very surprised by Banner's arrival.
"Bruce, you're finally back! You haven't contacted me in so long, I thought something had happened to you! Oh, by the way, have you seen Betty?"
"No, I saw her holding hands with someone else."
"Uh... yes, she brought him to meet me. He seems to be a Doctor. Sigh."
"It's fine. I'll be leaving soon. Don't tell her I was ever back!"
The old man looked at Banner with surprise and said, but a hint of regret flashed in his eyes when he thought of his girlfriend. Then Banner told him about seeing Betty holding hands with another man. The pizza shop owner nodded and told Banner what he knew.
After learning that the other person was a Doctor, Banner silently wished them well in his heart. His own situation made it impossible to bring Betty happiness, so it was better to let their feelings fade with time! At this moment, Betty arrived at the pizza shop with her new boyfriend.
The shop owner in the back kitchen smiled helplessly and went out to greet them. Banner quietly watched Betty through the window. At this moment, Betty suddenly noticed something and looked towards the back kitchen! Banner naturally immediately hid, then picked up his backpack and quietly left from the back.
"Bruce! Bruce, where are you?!"
"He's back, isn't he? I think I just saw him!"
"This....."
Betty was sure she hadn't seen wrong and, emotionally agitated, wanted to go to the back kitchen, even directly asking the shop owner. But he had already promised Bruce not to tell Betty, yet he also hoped that Bruce and Betty could get back together. His hesitant expression made Betty immediately rush into the back kitchen.
But she didn't see Bruce Banner. Noticing the back door open, she rushed out the back door, only to find no one around! She didn't know that Bruce Banner was hiding behind a nearby trash can. Once Betty entered the back door, he left directly from another direction.
Suddenly, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and heavy rain poured down. Banner walked alone in the street, drenched in the rain. His heart yearned for Betty. After taking a deep breath, he pulled himself together and walked forward! But the next moment, a car blocked his path, and an intelligent, blonde, blue-eyed beauty emerged from it.
She ran towards Banner without hesitation, and the next moment, the two instantly embraced and began kissing in the rain! Then Betty took Banner home. Banner also obtained the experimental data from Betty. He immediately decided to seek out Mr. Blue, also known as Samuel Sterns!
He wanted to solve his problem through him. After he told Betty this idea, Betty resolutely prepared to follow Banner to find Mr. Blue! But he had to contact Mr. Blue through his special account first!

Army Base
General Ross brought Bronski to a sealed laboratory. Looking at the equipment in front of them, one of the signs on a container of Super Serum read Stark Industries! But it looked like it had been there for some years. This was likely the Super Serum that Howard Stark had researched in the past.
The formula for the Super Serum was being reverse-engineered using Captain America's blood, but it seemed to have been unsuccessful since the place was sealed! However, there should have been some results. Howard Stark had two original Super Serums back then, which was why HYDRA sent the Winter Soldier to kill him and intercept the serum.
"Don't you want to know why Bruce Banner is so powerful? Because he is an accidental product. We cannot create another one. If you want to become stronger, then you can only inject these incomplete Super Serums, which can greatly improve your physical fitness!"
"Because it's incomplete, it needs to be injected into the bone marrow. The process will be extremely painful. Are you sure you want to inject it? If you can't endure it, you might die here!"
"Please inject me, General! I must defeat Hulk, I want to be stronger than him!!"
"Alright, inject him!"
General Ross looked at Bronski and spoke seriously, telling him the reason why Bruce Banner became that way. At the same time, he opened the container in front of him, revealing rows of Super Serums. Finally, he cautiously asked Bronski again if he wanted the injection.
Hearing General Ross's words, Bronski answered firmly. Finally, General Ross motioned to the surrounding scientists to inject Bronski with the Super Serum! He hadn't expected Bronski to be so unwavering, even when facing an injection into the bone marrow.
Bronski then lay on a special experimental bed, back up. The scientists then used straps and handcuffs to restrain Bronski on the experimental bed, to prevent him from moving during the injection, or from going berserk after the injection!
