American comic book: Start as a corpse collector, choose to cultivate immortality with technology

Even with his past prestige, Norman Osborn can only now move his research from the open to the shadows.

While secretly investigating, Norman Oss, as the chairman, couldn't arbitrarily transfer funds from the group's finances, at least not too obviously.

The 100 million in cash brought by Rennes was a timely boon.

As for the price the Osborne Group had to pay, it was merely the control of a research project.

Regarding Professor Connors' research project on 'lizard serum'.

Norman Osborn took it relatively seriously, but not as seriously as one might imagine.

In any case, once the project yields results, the project will ultimately belong to the company; it doesn't matter who has the control over the project.

If Professor Connors is truly dissatisfied, he will have no choice but to kick the opponent out of the game.

Professor Connors is very talented, but even a hundred million in cash isn't as tempting.

At worst, once I've completed my research on the body-enhancing drug, I can forcefully regain control of the group and then invite Professor Connors back.

Half a morning.

After a series of negotiations, Norman Osborne quickly reached an agreement with Ryan.

One hundred million US dollars have been received.

The project leadership for the reptile gene flash-cut fusion experiment was handed over to Ryan.

Not surprisingly.

A very serious argument broke out when Norman and Professor Connors were talking.

Then everyone in the Osborn Group saw Professor Connors angrily throw down his white coat and storm off the building.

Immediately afterwards, Ryan and his team took over the entire research project.

With Norman Osborne personally intervening and reorganizing, the takeover process in Ryan went very smoothly.

In fact, Ryan didn't care what his subordinates thought about the research project.

After Norman Osborn left, Ryan sent people to put most of the 'little babies' he had collected into the laboratory.

For Renn, lizard serum and the like weren't that important.

All Ryan wanted from beginning to end was the knowledge and wisdom that Professor Connors had accumulated during his research. At most, he also wanted the right to use the Osborn Group's crawler laboratory.

Now, Raine has successfully established his foundation using the Yin and Yang energy of creation.

This is accompanied by his interactions with Gwen.

Along with Gwen's continuous transformation and growth.

This accompanies Raine as she approaches and accepts other dual cultivation partners.

Rein's Foundation Establishment realm is like the Qi Refining stage after mastering the Heavenly River True Method; it can grow infinitely.

At this point, Raine needs to prepare for the next Earthly Fiend Realm.

In the world of Luofu.

After establishing the foundation, one needs to refine the energies of Heaven and Earth to harmonize with the pulse of Heaven and Earth, and borrow the essence of Heaven and Earth to continuously refine the three treasures of essence, energy, and spirit, thus nurturing the primordial spirit.

However, whether it is the Earthly Fiend Qi or the Heavenly Gang Qi, they are both extremely precious cultivation resources, even in the Luofu World.

It simply cannot be found in this world.

That's why Ryan set his sights on the Osborn Group's reptile genetics research lab.

Among the cultivation methods obtained by Raine, there is a barbaric witchcraft that can collect countless poisonous insects and raise them as Gu, using the floating earth energy on the insects to condense various unique earth evil energies.

The so-called "breeding of gu" refers to cultivating poisonous insects with the strongest genes through special processes of fighting, devouring, and smelting.

Only this 'strongest poisonous insect' can give birth to the origin of the Earthly Fiends.

Compared to the primitive methods of raising poisonous insects used by the barbaric witch tribes of the Luofu world.

Without a doubt, Osborn Group's reptile gene research lab is more scientific and more precise.

It possesses the barbaric witchcraft and Gu-raising techniques of the Luofu world.

It has a top-tier web crawler lab owned by the Osborn Group, worth over a billion US dollars.

He possesses Professor Connors' decades of knowledge in gene fusion research.

Only then can Raine more easily obtain what he wants, thereby cultivating enough Earthly Fiend Essence to advance to the Earthly Fiend realm.

"Cultivating Qi through the Stars and Building Foundation through Yin and Yang".

"The best thing for refining evil spirits is the earthly evil energy of the five elements."

"With the combination of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, and if one can also gather the Heavenly Gang of Time and Space, one can cultivate a primordial universe within the body, with limitless potential."

"The best of the five elements of earthly evil energy is the golden centipede, green lizard, black snake, red scorpion, and jade toad."

"Oh dear, I was careless. Geckos, also known as blue lizards, are a type of lizard."

"If I had known, I should have kept Professor Connors here too."

"However, it's not like there's no way to salvage the situation."

"If there are no unexpected issues with Frank, he should have obtained the decay formula by now."

"With the decay formula in hand, subduing Professor Connors shouldn't be a problem..."

Chapter 21 S.H.I.E.L.D. and Kingpin's Disdain

On the 36th floor of the Osborne Building, there is a multi-billion dollar reptile genetics research lab.

Wearing an extremely formal white lab coat, Ryan stood like a javelin in front of a huge natural environment simulator.

The giant glass box, made of ultra-composite materials, has multiple functions such as resistance to high temperatures, extreme cold, corrosion, and impact.

Four-fifths of the simulation environment originally designed to mimic tropical lizards was removed.

Instead, the simulator displays five equally divided areas representing the five elements and five directions.

In a simulated area filled with cold, dark minerals, golden-backed centipedes roam, devouring various metallic poisonous insects.

One area features a simulated rainforest with thunderstorms, where blue lizards roam, breathing in and out poisonous miasma.

In a misty, swampy simulated area, black snake shadows slither, devouring numerous aquatic venomous creatures.

In a simulated volcanic area shrouded in steam, venomous crimson scorpions roam freely...

In a simulated highland area steeped in earthy texture, the silhouette of a jade-colored toad flickers...

The natural environment simulator that the Osborn Group spent billions to create is truly impressive. It simulated the five elements domain that Rennes needed in less than two weeks.

Moreover, it contains research materials left by Professor Connors.

Many of the experimental subjects bred in reptile gene labs are born as alien insects.

Those strange insects were introduced into the Five Elements environment.

The golden centipede, green lizard, black snake, red scorpion, and jade toad that Ren had painstakingly cultivated for over a year suddenly began to evolve rapidly.

In addition, Raine occasionally cultivates his own blood, which contains a large amount of spiritual energy.

Before long, the five poisonous creatures will evolve and become spirit insects.

At that time, we will be able to begin nurturing the five elements and earthly evil energy.

However, given Rein's foundation, the amount of Five Elements Earthly Fiend Qi required to reach the Earthly Fiend Realm is by no means small. To cultivate enough Five Elements Spirit Insects, the time and money required will certainly be considerable.

Even Norman Osborn might not be able to tolerate Ryan occupying this place indefinitely.

Sensing the rapid growth of the five elemental spirit insects.

A glint of malice flickered in Raine's eyes as he plotted how to take over the entire Osborn Group.

Just as Renn was figuring out how to take over the Osborne Group.

Trident Building, S.H.I.E.L.D.

Nick Fury, dressed in a black trench coat, stood with his hands behind his back by a window, listening to the reports from Coulson and Hill with an air of superiority.

“The Cent family, ghouls, Frank, and skeletons that can turn into black mist.”

"So what happened to the Cent family was the Sullivan family cleaning house, right?"

After listening to their reports, Nick Fury, with his one extremely sharp eye, seemed to be talking to himself before finally fixing his gaze on Coulson and Hill.

Coulson, with his approachable demeanor, said, "Yes, sir. According to our intelligence, Frank joined the Sullivan family seven days ago and became the head of security at the Presbyterian Hospital."

“In the past few days, Frank has gathered many of his former comrades and formed an action team.”

"The intelligence analysis department concluded that the Sullivan family was likely preparing for expansion."

After he finished speaking, Coulson stood silently.

Hill's already handsome face now revealed a hint of menace.

"Sir, should we target the Sullivan family...?"

“No!” Nick Fury interrupted Hill, saying, “Our mission at S.H.I.E.L.D. is simply to effectively control supernatural phenomena worldwide.”

"The underworld and the twisted world are like a dangerous, chaotic place, a place of endless chaos and devastation!"
