Lin Mu bought a whole bunch of things: clothes, shoes and socks, daily necessities, snacks, alcohol, seasonings, and basic medical supplies.
Because the quantity was quite large, the supermarket even sent a vehicle to help with the delivery.
After placing the items in the rented room, giving the movers a tip and sending them away, Lin Mu directly stored most of the supplies in his system space, leaving only a few items in the rented room.
"Perhaps it's time to move to a bigger house."
Renting a house isn't convenient, so Lin Mu plans to buy a villa or a private estate.
However, this would require a lot of money. Lin Mu had no shortage of gold, but selling it would be troublesome, and he didn't want to waste his energy on it.
We need to find a white glove; Norman Osborn seems like a good fit.
……
Osborn Industries.
Osborne's board members, along with General Slocum from the military, have also arrived at the group's product display area.
Dr. Stromb is having someone demonstrate the Green Goblin glider.
"We have solved the problems of horizontal gliding and gravity balance."
"Its combat capabilities are comparable to those of conventional fighter jets."
"It can reach a top speed of 300 miles per hour, carry a weight of over 400 pounds, and be equipped with different weapon systems, possessing extremely flexible maneuverability."
"Clearly, our Green Goblin Glider is enough to enable individual combat to achieve a revolutionary leap."
General Slocum said impatiently, "I've already seen hang gliders; I didn't come here for this."
At that moment, Norman Osborn, wearing a white lab coat, approached the crowd with a gentle and confident smile.
"Hi, General Slocum, we meet again."
"And Mr. Balkans, Mr. Fagas."
General Slocum said sternly, "Mr. Norman Osborn, let's get straight to the point. I'd like to see the progress report on the Human Function Enhancement Program."
Dr. Strom said, "We did gas inhalation tests on mice, and their strength increased by 800 percent."
"Great! Are there any side effects?"
"General Slocum asked."
Dr. Stromb glanced at Norman and said, "One of the tests had..."
Norman interrupted halfway through his sentence: "There was an anomaly. All subsequent tests were successful."
General Slocum didn't believe Norman's words and pressed further, "What were the side effects of that test?"
"Those rats exhibited violent tendencies, aggression, and a certain degree of madness."
Dr. Strom answered truthfully.
Norman was so angry that he suspected he was an undercover agent sent by a rival company.
General Slocum looked at Dr. Stromb and asked, "What suggestions do you have?"
Norman, fearing that Dr. Strom might say something wrong, immediately stepped forward: "That was just a test. Apart from Dr. Strom, all the other researchers were convinced that human experiments could be conducted."
General Slocum's gaze, however, fell directly on Dr. Strom, filled with a sense of oppression.
I'd like to hear your thoughts.
Dr. Stromb, a practical researcher, ignored Norman's frantic stares and said, "We have to go back and start over."
That's practically tearing Norman's lungs out.
It's important to know that Osborn Industries invested hundreds of millions of dollars, along with military sponsorship, to get to this point in researching human enhancement drugs.
If they were to go back and re-examine the study, without the support of the military, Osborne's stock price would plummet instantly, and might even collapse.
He definitely won't be able to keep his position as chairman!
Norman now feels like killing Dr. Strom.
Upon hearing this answer, General Slocum immediately turned hostile: "Dr. Osborn, let me be frank with you, I never supported your project in the first place; it was approved by the previous person in charge."
Balkan, standing nearby, spoke up: "Norman, the general has agreed to explore the space company's prototype of the humanoid mech, with testing scheduled for two weeks later."
General Slocum issued a final warning: "If by then your so-called human enhancement drug has not yet been successfully tested on humans, I will withdraw your research funding and transfer it to another company."
"Rest assured, Osborn Group's products are absolutely superior."
"At that time, I will surprise everyone."
Norman answered in a deep voice, already prepared for the worst.
"I hope so. Goodbye, everyone."
After General Slocum finished speaking, he waved and left the Osborne Group.
After General Slocum left, Norman, forced to flee to Desperate Island, decided to conduct human experiments.
Because no volunteers could be found in a short period of time, he was prepared to become the first test subject himself.
This is crazy, and it's dangerous.
In the original storyline, Norman became extremely aggressive and turned into the Green Goblin after being injected with a half-finished human enhancement drug, which caused him to suffer from a split personality.
In the evening, after 21 o'clock.
All the other researchers have left.
Norman and Dr. Strom remained in the laboratory.
Upon hearing that Norman was planning to use himself as a test subject, the dutiful Dr. Stromb advised, "Dr. Osborn, please don't do that. The physical enhancement program is not yet complete, and the data does not indicate that it can be used for human testing."
"Please, please don't do this!"
Norman was seething with anger. If Dr. Strom hadn't been so inflexible and blurted out everything, he wouldn't have been driven to this point.
Now he's still whining and pretending to be a good person, making Norman feel like the other person is as disgusting as a fly.
"Don't be a coward; taking risks is part of experimental science."
Norman put the human enhancement drug into the nebulizer and began typing on the keyboard.
Dr. Stromb suggested, "You don't have to become the test subject yourself. I can arrange a suitable volunteer. Just give me two weeks."
"In two weeks, the contract will be taken by the exploration company. We don't have time anymore. Osborne is my life's work, and no one can ruin it."
Norman began to take off his clothes as he spoke.
"How about I do the experiment?"
Wearing a mask, Lin Mu appeared silently in the laboratory and, with a flick of his finger, shattered the laboratory's surveillance camera with a steel needle.
"Who are you?!"
Norman Osborn was startled when Lin Mu appeared in the laboratory without warning, as if by ghost.
“A volunteer, Mr. Osborn. Experiments are risky, and you can’t handle them. If something happens to you, Osborn will soon be divided up by the other shareholders. I will do the experiment and take full responsibility for my life.”
Lin Mu slowly emerged from the shadows, wearing a clown mask that obscured his expression. Norman sensed that the man before him was extremely dangerous and dared not underestimate him in the slightest.
"How did you get in? Security!"
Norman instinctively wanted to call out.
"Give me a break, Mr. Osborn. If I wanted to harm you, you would be a corpse by now."
Lin Mu appeared in front of Norman as if he had teleported, patted him on the shoulder, and said with an invisible pressure: "Stop talking nonsense, bring the catalyst and start the experiment immediately. You don't want Osborne to go bankrupt, do you?"
[Ding! You have encountered the pivotal figure Norman Osborn, triggering the side quest: Human Experimentation.]
[Mission Requirements: Conduct experiments with human enhancement drugs.]
[Task Reward: Randomly selected.]
This task suited Lin Mu's wishes perfectly. He had rushed over late at night, intending to absorb the human enhancement drug.
Since there's a negative reversal system, there's no need to worry about side effects.
Upon hearing this, Norman Osborn's pupils contracted slightly, and he stared intently at Lin Mu: "Are you sure?"
He wouldn't have gone to the lab bench himself if he hadn't been forced into it.
Since this person is not afraid of death, why not use him as an experiment? Success would be best, but even if he fails, we can still obtain some data for reference.
"Of course, otherwise what do you think I'd be here for?"
As Lin Mu spoke, he took off his shirt, revealing his muscular upper body. His skin was smooth and flawless, like a fine work of art.
He lay down on the lab table and said to Norman, "Time waits for no one. I'm ready to dedicate myself to science. Come on."
Norman seemed to have made up his mind and said, "Dr. Ström, give him the catalyst."
Chapter 41: Human Enhancement Agent
Dr. Stromb looked at Lin Mu, who was wearing a clown mask, and took out a catalyst.
Lin Mu took it, raised his hand and slashed, the mask under his nostrils was cut off by the air blade.
He took the catalyst and drank it in one gulp.
There are some side effects, and the conversion effect is weak.
Norman Osborn looked at Lin Mu on the lab table, whose expression was calm and even showed a hint of expectation, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.
He had never seen such "fanatical" volunteers, as if what was about to be injected into their bodies was not a potentially deadly semi-finished medicine, but some kind of nectar.
But time was of the essence, leaving him no time to think.
He nodded to Dr. Strom, who, despite his strong disapproval, started the instrument under pressure from Norman.
Lin Mu was put into the tempered glass experimental chamber.
"Are you ready? The process might be... a bit intense."
Norman gave a final warning, his finger hovering over the start button.
"let's start."
Lin Mu laughed and said, "I can't wait any longer. Let me see where the limits of your potion are."
Norman gritted his teeth and slammed down the button!
"Om-!"
The instruments around the experimental platform lit up instantly, emitting a deep rumble.
The atomizer nozzle entered the experimental chamber through an underground pipe, and a strange green mist surged out, which he inhaled as if it were a living thing.
[Ding! Reversible item detected—Human Enhancement Potion.]
[Human Enhancement Agent: Developed by Osborn Industries, designed to unleash human potential, significantly increasing basic physical attributes such as strength, speed, and endurance by approximately eight times.]
[Side effects: The violent energy and special compounds contained in the drug can severely disrupt the balance of neurotransmitters in the brain, greatly increasing the likelihood that the user will experience severe schizophrenia, violent tendencies, paranoid delusions, and may catalyze the formation of a highly aggressive and malevolent alternate personality.]
[Negative Reversal: Congratulations, host, you have successfully absorbed the human enhancement drug. Your basic physical attributes, such as strength, speed, endurance, reflexes, and self-healing ability, have been slightly improved. Your strength has increased to 30 tons, and your mental strength has been significantly enhanced. You have gained a special ability: Distraction Control (allows you to process multiple complex pieces of information or perform various fine operations simultaneously, and increases your mental resistance)!]
As Lin Mu inhaled the atomized human enhancement drug, the system notification sounded, and Lin Mu felt a surge of energy within his body.
This energy is much weaker than the changes brought about by the super spider venom, and the increase is not as significant.
The main focus is on strengthening the human body; the increase weakens as the game progresses.
The whole process was painless, almost like smoking a cigarette.
"Whoo~"
Lin Mu exhaled a green smoke ring and smiled, "Feels pretty good."
"He actually sucked up all the vaporized gas! Unbelievable!"
"There doesn't seem to be any rejection reaction."
Norman and Dr. Strom stared intently at the monitoring screen, where the data was fluctuating wildly!
"Heart rate 80!"
"Blood pressure is stable! Muscle density has increased..."
"Abnormally high brainwave activity..."
