Ben was unaware of Peter's experiences.
Or rather, he didn't really care.
Most of the time, Spider-Man's dangers happened around his family.
Now that he had both Uncle Ben and Aunt May well protected, Ben didn't plan to interfere too much in Peter's affairs.
The child had grown up; it was best to let him forge his own path.
Currently, he was working overtime with Connors on the new serum. After getting the samples, he handed the matter over to Harry.
The most difficult technical problems had already been solved. All that remained was to purchase the production line and run advertisements. If Harry couldn't handle such a small matter, he would be too useless.
During this time, Felicia had visited the company a few times, and after returning home in the evening, Mary Jane would often drop by.
But overall, Ben was incredibly busy—because after transforming into Grey Matter, he had to stand on the test bench just to talk to Connors.
A week passed like this, and the serum was finally completed.
He contacted Norman.
And discussed the specific sales plan with him.
"First, we'll launch the basic model—it can quickly treat injuries and heal wounds," Ben said softly, taking out a bottle of translucent, pale green serum.
The basic serum could heal even fatal wounds within the time its effects lasted.
For instance, a wound several centimeters deep could heal in a matter of minutes under the serum's influence.
Such a powerful serum was bound to cause a sensation.
In fact, Ben had originally wanted to further reduce the serum's effectiveness, but considering he was launching it in collaboration with Osborn, if the effect was too poor, it would be difficult to achieve the expected revival of Osborn Corporation.
"The current balance is just right. With Osborn taking the lead, we can completely withstand the pressure."
Norman nodded. "For patients on the brink of death, only a strong medicine will do!"
"The upgraded version will be launched a few months later," Ben said.
What would be launched a few months later wasn't just the upgraded version, but also a stripped-down version, which was the lowest-tier model Ben had initially intended to sell, its effects only working on minor wounds.
However, in his opinion, the profit this serum would bring wouldn't be any lower than the others.
This was because it had a special function—scar removal.
In reality, all versions of the serum had scar-removing properties, but for most people, they wouldn't buy an expensive serum just for scar removal.
"It seems you had everything planned out," Norman said admiringly.
Ben's plan was very detailed, even including several phases. Even without the Osborn Corporation shielding Primus, it would likely be fine.
Thinking about it this way, the joint sale of the serum meant the Osborn Corporation was getting the better deal.
Norman felt the shares he had given earlier were a bit too little and was considering giving more when Ben said:
"Fortunately, I have your help, Uncle Norman. Actually, Primus needs time right now."
He was telling the truth.
These days, Ben had also been paying attention to Tony Stark.
Justin Hammer had already attacked Tony. That hearing was fully public, and Ben had naturally seen the outcome.
The plot of Iron Man 2 had already begun to unfold.
Ben needed to accumulate enough funds to swallow Hammer Industries in a short period. Otherwise, if he missed this opportunity, he would find that such opportunities were...
Endless!
It had to be said that in the Marvel Universe, there were truly countless corporations that courted their own destruction, like Hammer Industries.
For example, the Stark Industries' rival A.I.M. from Iron Man 3, or the Life Foundation far away in Washington...
There were too many!
But those were still far off, while Hammer Industries was close.
The greatest use of the Osborn Corporation was to save Ben time.
However, he remembered something and reminded Norman, "Once the basic healing serum is released, the original board members of Osborn Corporation will likely realize this was your setup."
Ben felt those people would be unwilling to accept being deceived, selling their shares at their lowest point only for them to quickly rise again.
"They deserve it!"
Norman didn't seem to care. He took the serum and left Primus.
Ben could now let go of the subsequent matters.
"Finally, I can rest for a while," Connors said with relief.
He was no longer disabled. His newly grown right arm was still tender, but he looked at it constantly, even to the point of trying to experience pain with it.
It was as if only by doing so could he prove that this arm was real.
"Your wife and children probably won't recognize you when they see you again,"
Ben said with a smile.
"It's still early," Connors shook his head.
If they were unlucky, the police might keep them under surveillance for years.
"At least now I can get you a fake identity. After all, Connors doesn't have two hands."
This wasn't a difficult task, especially for Eunice now, it was as simple as could be.
Before long, a new identity named "Curtis Shallu" was born.
Among them, Curtis was originally Connors' name, while Shallu represented "cells."
Connors' situation was just a minor interlude. Ben planned to take a break for a while.
Otherwise, school would reopen again soon.
"Should I go to Mexico?"
Ben pondered on his way home.
He had already noticed that this universe was somewhat similar to the movie universe, but not entirely the same.
At this point in time, Thor's Hammer seemed to have already been discarded on Earth by Odin.
He wasn't very interested in Thor's Hammer. Ben would never be able to lift that thing unless he had magic stronger than Odin's, or could simply lift a planet.
In short, he was truly not qualified.
He was well aware of this.
However, he was very interested in Thor himself.
This might sound a bit strange, but Ben really wanted to capture the genes of Asgardians and Frost Giants.
After all, at this point in time, there weren't many aliens he could encounter. Aside from that Asgardian Second Princess and Third Princess, there were probably only the Skrulls.
But meeting Skrulls wasn't that easy either.
"I remember in the non-canon alien heroes of 5YL, there was a hero who obtained Asgardian genes, Cosmigod."
In the lore, Cosmigod possessed all the abilities of an Asgardian in their normal state.
They could fly and control cosmic energy.
The potential of Asgardians was quite high, and the genes obtained by Little Broken Watch would be further optimized, becoming the healthiest genes.
Thinking of this, Ben felt a little tempted.
However, just as he was about to go home and tell Uncle Ben and Aunt May about his upcoming trip, Peter interrupted his plan.
At this moment.
Peter, covered in injuries, dragged the unconscious Matt into his room, helpless.
His face was full of exhaustion, like a panicked child.
