Chapter 589: Iron Man and Spider-Man

Scientific research is a very expensive thing, and the most expensive types must include basic scientific research and advanced scientific research. There is no doubt that the investment and return ratio of these two studies is quite disproportionate.

Needless to say, basic science is almost a national-level strategic project. Few private entrepreneurs are willing to spend a lot of money in this area, because basic science is slow to bear fruit, and long-term investment may not have much return.

And cutting-edge conceptual science is another hole that burns money. Because this kind of scientific investment can easily become a trap of drawing cakes. It may be possible to gain both fame and fortune after a successful investment, and become an advanced technology that changes the world.

But it is more likely that after investing tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars in funds, the result is that nothing can be obtained. Scientists have not discovered anything of value, and investors' funds have been wasted. Not even a single spray could be seen.

And Peter Parker is now studying the tendency of how many advantages this aspect has. [Parker Factor] This is a discovery Peter Parker named after himself.

The discovery here is a bit tortuous, and it has to start with Norman Osborn's inhumane experiment at the earliest.

Because of the genetic disease of the Osborn family, Norman made a deal with the Demon God to prolong his life. He wants to make a suitable genetic antidote within a limited time.

As a result, the lives of hundreds or even thousands of people were used by him to push them into the endless abyss. Peter still remembers seeing the inhumane experiments of the Osborn Group with Li Jie. Or, they originally came to the Osborne Group for help. In the end, it became Norman's experiment. (see above for details)

In these experiments, Li Jie and Peter knew one thing because they stole some information from the Osborne Group. That is, Norman is very concerned about the key Mr. P, and Peter is very clear that Norman's so-called Mr. P refers to himself.

In the end, Norman died due to various incidents, but the genetic medicine was also made through countless human life experiments. Harry was cured, and his physique has also improved. In terms of physical fitness, he has reached the peak of human beings, similar to the existence of Captain America.

But it was accumulated by countless people with their lives. Li Jie and Peter agreed that this matter must be kept secret, and no one would mention it to Harry. If he knew that his life was exchanged for the lives of hundreds or thousands of people, would this sunny boy accept it? It's too hard to say.

But Peter has kept an eye out since then, mainly because he is a little curious why Norman thinks he is the key Mr. P, is there something special about his body?

After becoming Spider-Man, Peter has been looking for a similar answer. He is not a mutant, why can he simply mutate?

And what exactly did his parents do? The notes left by his father were the main basis for him to help Dr. Connor improve the genetic medicine.

So what secrets are hidden in your body? Is there something his parents didn't tell him? Peter Parker has many, many doubts, but he can't simply confide in others.

Because it also involves another friend's secret, even the secret of his own life experience, this is a very, very private matter, even Li Jie and his uncle's family can't say it.

So the little spider started a secret experiment, hoping to find out what's different in his body.

One by one calculation formulas, and the manuscript papers of calculations are all over the basement of my home. He has obtained the right to use the entire basement from Uncle Ben, and he needs a place to do some experiments.

As for Spider-Man's royalties, apart from the part donated to the fund to help others, he only left his university expenses and a small pocket money.

Most of the rest was invested in the purchase of various equipment. Peter told Uncle Ben that these equipment were old equipment eliminated by the Osborne Group and were given away for nothing.

Hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars is a lot of money for ordinary family life, but it is a drop in the bucket for scientific research. Even bought equipment can not be very good.

This made Peter's research slow to make much progress, except for a better understanding of the special spider gene, he did not get much useful things.

Until an accident in the night watchman's base.

Remember the symbiote that Lee Jay stripped from Norman Osborn's Green Goblin mask? It was locked by Li Jie in the laboratory of the night watchman base, and it was studied by Mockingbird Barbara (she was originally a confidant agent inserted by Cyclops Nick, and is currently under the jurisdiction of Frank the Punisher.)

The black symbiont was named Venom by Li Jie. From its water-like flowing form, and the occasional fangs and claws, it is worthy of the name Venom.

This symbiont is an alternative life form that also needs to eat to survive. And its food is quite special, it can absorb part of the radiation energy and store it as food.

So for the convenience of raising it and studying it, Frank found some radioactive mineral stones. Feed the venom some radioactive minerals every once in a while to ensure that it doesn't die, but it can't be too strong.

That time Peter Parker was on duty at the base, and he fed Venom a small piece of radioactive ore.

But an accident happened. The venom, which was lying softly like mud in the petri dish, suddenly burst into vitality when it met Peter.

The black venom flew to Peter, and it wanted to possess Peter.

"Damn it!" Peter cursed angrily, and quickly began to peel off the symbiote venom stuck to his body like asphalt.

Buzz~! UHF noise rang out, and Mike (former swat member) appeared behind Peter with a special audio player.

Hearing this special sonic venom was like meeting a natural enemy. The black body turned into a painful face, and finally retreated away from Peter's body like a tide.

This is its biggest weakness that has been discovered since studying venom for so long, and it is particularly resistant to sound waves in a certain frequency band. Mike pulled up Peter, who was almost possessed just now, and asked, "Are you okay?"

Peter checked his body and said, "There should be nothing wrong."

Originally, there were no other problems in this matter, and Peter and Mike did not talk about it to others.

But after Peter came home, he found a black mark left on his uniform, which was the tissue left by the venom, and it seemed to have lost its activity.

And it was this organization that made Peter's stalled research a new development.

In the genetic experiment, he tried to fuse his own gene with the venom gene, and a super active factor was born.

This factor has a very high imitation learning ability and is extremely active.

What does a genetic factor with the ability to learn represent? Human learning ability is a very complicated process, from babbling to learning to use tableware to eat, to recognizing words, to learning basic culture.

A person's life is a long learning process. We are learning about the surrounding environment all the time to enrich ourselves. This learning is partly conscious, but more often unconscious.

For example, the mother tongue that I first learned, although part of it came from my parents' teaching, but more of it is a kind of subtle influence.

For example, unscrewing the cap of a mineral water bottle does not need to be taught. Many people may know how to open the cap the first time they get a mineral water bottle. This is because you have seen countless people do this, it is a kind of subconscious learning.

Even seemingly unconscious sitting and standing postures. All this is learned from the subconscious mind.

But the knowledge in this world is vast, and many people can hardly achieve excellence in a certain field even if they spend their entire lives. There are only so many geniuses in the world.

But what if the genes in your body give you an innate learning advantage? If you have memorized one or two of the contents of a book when you are unconsciously flipping through it, how much can you learn in your life?

And this is one of the particularities of this [Parker Factor], and the other is the super activity of the [Parker Factor]. What kind of changes will this activity bring to human genes? Super physical? super strength? Or super recovery?

Peter didn't know, because the areas covered above were beyond his reach. Because the objective conditions of his research equipment are here, the converted laboratory in the basement can no longer satisfy him.

……………………

In the reception room, Peter Parker checked his appearance with the front camera of his mobile phone. He felt that his hairsprayed Sanqi hairstyle seemed a bit messy, and he wanted to fiddle with it. By the way, I have to tidy up my collar.

Because the collars of the newly bought shirts and suits were a bit stuck on his neck, he had just moved his head before the door of the reception room was pushed open. A beautiful woman with golden hair said at the door, "Next, Peter Parker!"

Peter immediately packed up all the things he had just taken out, and he followed behind the woman. The beautiful woman led the way and said without looking back: "You only have three minutes, Mr. Parker. If you can't express your thoughts within the time, then you have to make an appointment next time."

Peter was a little confused: "What? Isn't it twenty minutes? I checked the review criteria of the Horizon Foundation before, and the first preliminary interview review is twenty minutes!"

The blond woman turned her head and smiled at him: "Because the person reviewing today is Tony Stark!" As soon as she finished speaking, she pushed the door of the office in front of her.

Although Peter Parker has met Iron Man Tony Stark in various places, this time is completely different. (Before Spiderman saw Iron Man, or Iron Man saw Spiderman)

Tony isn't Iron Man now, and Peter isn't Spider-Man. The man with a beautiful beard on the opposite side will be a difficulty for him this time.

When Peter just walked into this room, Tony had already pressed the countdown timer in front of him.

"You have three minutes to present your ideas now, young man." Tony said very seriously: "My time is very precious. If you don't have an invention or idea that can change the world, you'd better quit now."

Peter was instantly taken aback by what Tony said. Tony may appear to be very careless at certain times, but when he is serious, the aura of the world's top rich man and scientist is revealed. Peter was almost speechless under the pressure.

"Two minutes and forty seconds, thirty-nine seconds, thirty-eight seconds." Tony was reading the countdown to Peter: "Twenty seconds, if you have nothing to say, you can go out now, kid."

Peter just came to his senses now: "Wait a minute, I have a discovery, a strange factor. I named it [Parker factor]. It has the ability to imitate learning and high activity. This factor is currently only available to me. It is cultivated in a small amount in the laboratory, but I want to know whether this factor is universal in the world, and whether it can open another window for human beings!"

Tony looked at the timer: "One minute and fifteen seconds, fourteen seconds, thirteen seconds."

Peter began to speak faster: "I know there is a point of view among mutants, that is, mutants are the future of human evolution. Because of the x gene, because of various special abilities. But mutant genes have various uncertainties, and Very unstable."

"We all know that some mutants are very strong, some are weak, and some mutants' abilities can even be described as [cruel lifelong diseases]. Coupled with the uncontrollable outbreak factors during the awakening of abilities, this All of this is not doing any good for our world."

Speaking of this, Peter suddenly became louder and danced. He no longer cared about his image. As a science geek, Peter has fallen into his own world: "If, I mean if. If this new factor is more stable, Can it even be fused with the X gene? [Parker Factor] is extremely inclusive, so can we get inspiration for a new evolutionary direction?"

Peter Parker has already devoted himself to it: "A friend of mine (Li Jie) said that our world will enter the cosmic age, and this time will not be too far back. The Horizon Foundation is studying cosmic sociology and cosmic politics. But why haven’t you considered studying human biology in the universe? This is a big era, times are changing, life is changing, why don’t we follow the change together? I need money together, a lot of money, Mr. Tony. I I need a new laboratory, I need enough experimental equipment. I need a lot, it may be tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars."

When he said this, Peter Parker's cheeks were already bright red, not because of shyness, but because of the surging blood of excitement. He's a young man, an eighteen-year-old young man, an eighteen-year-old young man whose mind is full of all sorts of tricks to change the world.

He stared at Tony and said, "You just asked if there are any inventions that change the world? Do I count?!"

Tony glanced at the countdown timer in front of him, and he said flatly, "You're three minutes overtime, kid."

"Eh?" Peter was choked up by Tony's words: "So I'm sorry, Mr. Stark." He thought his speech didn't impress Tony.

When Peter was about to go out, Tony called him from behind: "Wait, kid, do you have time to have lunch with me?"

Peter heard that it was a joke.

Tony continued: "If you have time, come with me. It just so happens that another friend of mine recently got an amazing set of kitchen utensils and is showing off cooking. I think you will like to eat his dishes."

Um? Why does Peter feel that he also knows the person Tony mentioned? And Li Jie, who was picking ingredients all over the world with Lan, and was about to start his first journey of selling food in another world (pretending to be b), sneezed. He rubbed his nose: Is someone talking about my handsomeness behind my back?

Ps: Peter has never met Tony with his real identity, nor has he communicated with him. This is the first time the two have communicated with each other in their normal identities.
