Late at night, after a busy day, Ger thought about it and decided to go to his good friend Harry's house.
In the past two months, Osborne has been on the verge of being removed from the government's list of partners due to the influence of several arms companies such as Tony and Hammer.
However, the Osborn Corporation's new weapon is already in the late stages of development. They also have samples of a "human enhancer" specifically designed for the Osborn family, which haven't yet undergone clinical trials.
If Uncle Norman were to take the risk and inject himself with the still-undeveloped "human enhancer" to become the Green Goblin, then he could still use mind magic to control Uncle Norman in time and prevent him from doing something irreversible.
In this life, the only people Gerald truly cared about were his younger siblings and his two true friends, Peter and Harry. He couldn't possibly know that something bad was going to happen to Harry's family and then turn a blind eye.
Gel didn't choose to use his teleportation ability to teleport directly to Harry's house, since the portal couldn't be hidden. So, as before, he entered Harry's house through the window while remaining invisible.
Using mind magic, Gel learned from the butler that Uncle Norman had gone on a business trip and would not return for two days. Relieved, Gel used spatial magic to return home from a secluded spot in Harry's house.
"What's wrong with me?" The butler shook his dazed head, but couldn't find anything unusual. He walked out of his room, intending to use the restroom. But as he passed through the living room, he tripped over the table, knocking over all the fruit and flowers arranged on it.
"Ding-dong!"
A loud noise came through the doors and windows into Harry's room. Harry was awakened by the noise, put on his pajamas, and came out to ask, "What's wrong?"
Upon seeing the butler lying on the ground, they immediately called an ambulance and had him taken away.
Ten minutes later, Harry watched the ambulance drive away, but he couldn't sleep anymore. Looking at the understated yet luxurious furnishings around him, he sighed deeply. He had always been looked down upon by his strong-willed father, so he had always been somewhat insecure. This insecurity had only worsened as he grew older. In high school, he met Gel and Peter, and it was their encouragement that helped him through his darkest period. However, these two, already academic high-achievers, had also gained "superpowers." He was grateful that they hadn't hidden it from him and had always treated him as their best friend. But deep down, he was also afraid, because he felt like he lived in a different world from Gel and Peter.
What happened at the mall today, in particular, weighed heavily on his mind.
Recently, he has had another worry: from his father's and the housekeeper's expressions and their daily conversations, he knows that the family business is facing great difficulties and even the risk of bankruptcy.
Upon reaching the second floor, Harry unconsciously fiddled with the items on the bookshelf.
"Click!"
Suddenly, with a strange noise, the bookshelf next to Harry parted to the sides without warning, revealing a secret room.
"Where is this place?" Harry asked in astonishment, looking at the somewhat dimly lit aisle extending from behind the bookshelves.
With surprise, Harry walked inside. He never imagined that there would be such a place in the house where he had lived for more than ten years!
After walking a few steps, two rows of glass shelves appeared in front of Harry. One shelf was filled with spherical metal objects, while the other held only a tube of green liquid. Looking further to the side, in the extended room, there was a computer in the center, and next to the computer, hanging were a mask, a set of lightweight armor, and something resembling a drone.
The green light made the room appear particularly dark.
Harry turned on the computer and began to examine its contents. Documents, pictures, videos—folders opened one after another, and Harry grew increasingly shocked as he looked.
The green liquid is a "human enhancement drug" secretly developed by the research team at the father's behest, but it can only be used by those with Osborn blood, meaning only he and his father can use it. The drone-like object next to it is an aircraft developed based on the latest technology of the Osborn Corporation, but it cannot be mass-produced due to limitations in technology and materials.
The most shocking thing on the computer was a "battle plan" written by his father. His father planned to inject himself with a human enhancement serum, then use a flying vehicle to reach the Stark Industries Expo, defeat Iron Man and other arms manufacturers' cutting-edge technology, regain the opportunity for a long-term cooperation with the government, and save Osborn Industries!
However, this human enhancement drug has not yet undergone a series of rigorous experiments, so my father has not yet made up his mind to use it.
The light from the computer screen shone on Harry's face, clearly illuminating the struggle in his eyes.
Harry just sat there blankly, lost in thought.
After an unknown amount of time, Harry finally raised his head and grabbed the human enhancement potion beside him.
"ah!"
A moment later, a painful scream came from the empty villa!
In the following days, the Stark Industrial Exposition, which was held again after a twelve-year hiatus, dominated the headlines of major American media outlets.
As the world's largest industrial trade fair, Stark Industries attracts the attention of top executives worldwide.
According to "reliable sources" from various media outlets, Hammer Industries, Osborn Corporation, and other major industrial companies will showcase their cutting-edge technological achievements at the expo.
Hammer Industries even secured the opportunity to give the opening presentation!
That evening, the presidents and their secretaries, dressed in various suits and evening gowns, arrived at Stark Industries in all sorts of luxury cars. Gail, too, changed into a suit and arrived at Stark Industries.
