On Sunday, at the Osborne Industrial Basement Level 3, the Class A Comprehensive Test Range.
The enclosed space, large enough to accommodate a small aircraft, had now been completely cleared out.
The walls are made of composite energy-absorbing material several meters thick, the ground is covered with laser rulers and sensor arrays, and the dome is equipped with dozens of high-speed capture cameras, silently recording everything inside the venue.
In the circular observation room on the second floor, Norman Osborn leaned forward, his hands on the control panel, his eyes fixed on the floor below.
Standing beside him was Chief Scientist Dr. Strom.
Several core engineers held their breath, the air so quiet that the faint hum of the server could be heard.
In the center of the arena, Lin Mu had already changed into the first-generation Green Demon Armor.
This suit of armor covered the entire body, the dark green armor plates gleaming with a metallic sheen under the cold white light, the menacing lines exuding aggression.
Lin Mu wore specially made shoes with magnetic devices, his feet on the Green Demon glider. The streamlined wing body resembled a lurking beast, exuding a cold beauty.
"Mr. Lin, the system self-check is complete. The balancing module is in its initial version, so there may be some delay in feedback. Please be careful..."
Norman's voice came through the built-in communicator inside Lin Mu's helmet.
"rest assured."
Lin Mu's voice, processed by the mask, sounded deep and slightly electronic, revealing no emotional fluctuations whatsoever.
With a slight thought, his neural sensory system instantly connected.
"Om-"
The plasma engine at the tail of the glider beneath my feet emitted a deep and powerful roar, and a dark blue tail flame shot out, generating a strong thrust.
If it were an ordinary person, they would probably be thrown out immediately.
Lin Mu remained completely still. His powerful core strength and extraordinary sense of balance allowed him to walk on flat ground, as if he were welded to a hang glider.
With just a slight shift in its center of gravity, the hang glider smoothly floats up, three feet off the ground, and flies at high speed.
"Basic maneuver test, commence."
Lin Mu gave a concise report.
The next second, the hang glider shot forward, its speed increasing instantly.
The hang glider sped out at an astonishing speed, transforming into a green phantom across the wide field, tracing a sharp trajectory.
High-speed straight-line sprints, near-right-angle sharp turns, vertical leaps, dives skimming the ground, climbs...
The series of movements were incredibly smooth.
Lin Mu's body and the glider seemed to be one, and every adjustment of his posture was precise and flawless, as if he had been tempered a thousand times.
Along the way, he slightly raised his arms and accurately launched sharp throwing knives and miniature pumpkin bombs, destroying fixed targets and high-speed moving targets set up along the route one after another. The sound of explosions echoed dully in the stadium.
Inside the observation room, a young engineer couldn't help but exclaim, "My God, he's practically a superman!"
"Stability far exceeded expectations."
"He completely bypassed the balance assist system! He's controlling it purely through his body's reflexes!" another person exclaimed.
"An astonishing ability to withstand overload! That sharp turn just now would have made an ordinary person faint!"
……
Shock gradually gave way to burning excitement in Norman Osborn's eyes.
He saw hope in turning the tide.
He knew Lin Mu was no ordinary person, but he didn't expect the other party to be able to control this berserk machine built for war so easily.
"Weapon system test."
Lin Mu's voice came again.
"Whoosh whoosh-!"
The missile bays on both sides of the glider opened, and micro-missiles roared out, trailing plumes of flame, and accurately detonated a high-speed maneuvering target in the distance, sending fireballs tumbling through the air.
Immediately afterwards, a barrage of high-explosive bullets poured out, tearing a simulated metal obstacle zone to shreds.
Finally, Lin Mu raised his arm, and with a few hissing sounds, several sharp-edged, high-speed spinning saw-toothed flywheels shot out from under the glider, drawing eerie arcs of death in the air, severing the last few special steel plate targets in half and embedding them deeply into the energy-absorbing wall.
"The weapon system is operating normally and has extremely high accuracy."
Lin Mu's report remained unremarkable.
Norman clenched his fist excitedly: "Fantastic! Perfect! Mr. Lin, you're a born warrior!"
However, Lin Mu's performance was not over yet.
"Next, we will conduct extreme flight tests."
Before he finished speaking, he pushed the glider's engine to its maximum power.
The entire hang glider roared furiously, its speed instantly breaking all previous records, and it sped wildly through the test field like a green lightning bolt!
Lin Mu piloted the hang glider, skimming past the wall at high speed with the slightest difference in speed, and even performed a series of astonishing, almost vertical, ground-hugging flights and cobra maneuvers!
The immense overload force is enough to crush the internal organs of an ordinary person. If one's vision and reaction time are not quick enough, the result will be a fatal crash.
But Lin Mu entered the arena with an air of composure, relying on his spider-like senses and extraordinary reflexes to precisely control the situation and enjoy the thrill of speed and passion.
Finally, he maneuvered the hang glider vertically toward the dome above with unstoppable momentum. At the moment of impact, he executed a near-perfect extreme flip, turning the hang glider almost upside down and close to the dome before gracefully swooping down and hovering steadily in the center of the field.
The entire test site was silent, except for the slight hum of the glider engine as it cooled down.
Inside the observation room, everyone, including Dr. Strom, was dumbfounded.
Norman Osborne was the first to react. He took a deep breath, suppressed his elation, and immediately led his men down from the observation room.
"Incredible! Mr. Lin, your performance... has completely redefined the limits of this equipment!"
Norman greeted Lin Mu, who was jumping off the hang glider, his tone filled with admiration and disbelief.
Lin Mu removed his mask, revealing a calm face. He patted the glider beside him: "The basic performance is good, but the power, firepower, and endurance still need improvement."
·· ···Requesting flowers···· ···
"The steering system is too rigid. I suggest changing it to a Green Demon skateboard and adding vector nozzles to achieve all-around maneuverability and emergency stops."
"The operating system is too redundant; I can provide you with a simplified solution."
These days, Lin Mu has learned a lot about mechanical engineering, and knowing about the existence of the Green Devil skateboard, he has offered some suggestions.
"Of course! That's exactly the kind of professional advice we desperately need!"
Norman had no more doubts in his mind at this moment, only relief.
Gold is certainly important, but the strength and value that Lin Mu has demonstrated far exceed that of gold itself.
If he wins the technology exhibition, he can secure military contracts, which will cause Osborne's stock price to soar. With some manipulation, he can make several times the profit.
Lin Mu patted the glider's cold armor: "It's more than enough to deal with those tin cans for space exploration."
"Mr. Norman, be prepared to let everyone get to know Osborn again in two weeks."
Norman's eyes flashed with an unprecedented sharpness, and he nodded heavily: "That's right! The era of Osborn Industries has only just begun!"
..... ..... ....
For a period of time afterward, Lin Mu took leave and devoted himself to the design of new armor and aircraft.
First, Lin Mu didn't like green, so he changed it to black with gold armor, and the helmet was also adjusted to the style of imperial armor.
Norman had some objections: "Lin, although I know you young people like cool things, this change makes the Green Goblin armor less intimidating."
“Mr. Norman, deterrence is needed on the battlefield, but products need to appeal to the masses. Young people are the future, and leading the trend is leading the future.”
Lin Mu said, "Between the Green Goblin Armor and the armor I designed, which do you think young people prefer? Moreover, this can also be used to produce peripheral products and toys, and even to make movies based on this theme, thereby expanding its influence."
"Only by diversifying industries and forming a new pattern of multiple points and industries supporting each other can we avoid being controlled by others. Don't you want to expand Osborne's business empire?"
Upon hearing this, Norman seemed to have been enlightened and exclaimed excitedly, "Lin, you are a genius!"
"How come I never thought of that before? I guess I'm getting old, and my thinking is getting a bit rigid. Our Osborn Industries needs talent like you!"
"How about you use those ten tons of gold as investment, and I'll give you Osborn five percent of the shares?"
Norman perked up immediately when the topic of making money came up.
Osborne Industries was previously too reliant on the military industry, which is why it was subject to military constraints.
If the military stops placing orders, Osborne will suffer a severe blow, or even go bankrupt.
Lin Mu's suggestion gave Norman a new idea, and he also planned to tie Lin Mu to Osborn's chariot.
"can."
Lin Mu thought about it and felt it wasn't a bad deal.
This world contains some extraordinary abilities, such as Sandman in the later stages, and Venom from outer space. It may even be linked to the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the future, so it still has great potential.
It can serve as a long-term base, providing a stable source of income and supply channels. When necessary, it can also purchase weapons at internal prices and cooperate with Norman in the long term. At least for now, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
As for the main storyline...
It only says that the Green Goblin was defeated, but it doesn't say that the Green Goblin had to be Norman Osborn.
Once the human enhancement drug is successfully produced, find someone to be sniped, then have him wear the Green Goblin Armor and give him a good beating.
Chapter 47: Gwen
To expedite the project, Norman recruited several key figures into the research team at Lin Mu's strong recommendation.
The most important of them all was Otto Gunther Octavius, who later became Doctor Octopus.
He has extraordinary expertise in mechanical engineering and atomic energy applications, and his independently designed mechanical tentacles can be controlled by thought through a high-precision neural interface.
In Spider-Man 2, he also spearheaded the construction of an artificial sun.
Unfortunately, energy control remains a challenge, and the project is still considered dangerous and unstable.
Meanwhile, three young prodigies from Midtown High School—Peter Parker, Gwen Stacy, and Cindy Moon—also joined the team.
The Marvel universe has no shortage of geniuses.
Despite their young age, Peter, Gwen, and Cindy have all demonstrated remarkable scientific acumen and creativity in their respective fields.
Their addition not only greatly enhanced the team's strength, but also provided them with a valuable experience.
For Lin Mu, this was an opportunity to get closer to Gwen Stacy.
After get off work on Wednesday, Lin Mu and Cindy invited Gwen to their villa.
Gwen Stacy and Cindy Moon were already good friends, and given her curiosity about Lin Mu, she naturally wouldn't refuse.
The three returned to the villa on Queen Street.
"Please sit wherever you like, I'll go cook."
Lin Mu walked into the kitchen. For him, cooking was also a kind of fun, which could bring some warmth and life to his life.
Seeing Lin Mu busy in the kitchen, Gwen blinked her bright blue eyes and couldn't help but whisper to Cindy beside her, "Honestly, he's practically perfect. Handsome, incredibly intelligent, rich, and he can even cook... How did you find such a rare find?"
Cindy smiled, her eyes sparkling with happiness and a hint of pride: "Not only that, what Lin has given me... far exceeds your imagination."
Gwen keenly caught the implication in her best friend's words, leaned closer, and lowered her voice even further: "Teach what? Wait... your skin has gotten so much better lately, you can't see any blemishes at all, could it be that..."
She playfully nudged Cindy with her shoulder: "Being nourished by love even has beauty benefits?"
"Do you want to die!"
Cindy's ears turned red, and she pretended to pinch her, but carefully controlled her strength, saying, "If you're so curious, why don't you find a boyfriend yourself and see?"
Gwen tilted her head and smiled, her golden ponytail slipping down her shoulder. She glanced towards the kitchen and joked, "I think Lin is pretty good. How about... you lend me him for a couple of days?"
Upon hearing this, Cindy was not angry at all. Instead, she gave a meaningful smile and said, "Okay, but I'm afraid you can't handle it."
She had personally experienced Lin Mu's inhuman physical abilities.
Even the body enhanced by the super spider often couldn't withstand it.
With Gwen's slender frame?
Cindy silently shook her head inwardly.
It's so fragile, it'd probably fall apart if it got hit!
