Chapter 1220

"According to the timeline, Peter Parker came here right after leaving the laboratory."

"Look here, there's a spider on the back of his neck! He was bitten by a spider!"

"No coma, no abnormal reaction."

"He left."

Watching Peter Parker leave the Osborn Building with a look of indignation on the surveillance screen, a faint, cold smirk curled the corners of Su Quan's mouth.

Whether it was Professor Curt Connors or Peter Parker, they were all damn traitors. It should have been a situation of working together, yet one turned into the Lizard Professor and the other into Spider-Man.

That would be fine; after all, he would have injected Professor Curt Connors with the serum after the experiment succeeded, and the deal with Peter Parker included him becoming Spider-Man.

But—what I give you, you can take; what I don't give you, you cannot snatch!

The actions of Professor Curt Connors and Peter Parker were no different from snatching!

"I will send people to catch them back immediately."

Norman Osborn spoke in a deep voice. Whether it was the Lizard Professor or Spider-Man, they were all Osborn—no, they were all the master's assets. No matter the cost, they had to be retrieved for the master!

Su Quan shook his head: "This is a project Felicia is responsible for, so she will handle it. You handle another matter for me."

"Please speak."

"Dr. Morbius at Horizon Labs is researching a project regarding blood. I want to invest in this project, and I want it done quickly!"

Norman Osborn had heard of this Morbius, the developer of artificial blood and a Nobel Prize winner. There must be many people investing in him and his project.

However, he was the president of Osborn Corp, after all; he still had that much confidence.

"Before noon tomorrow, you will definitely hear good news!"

"Good."

Norman Osborn waited for a moment, and seeing that Su Quan had no other instructions, he left the laboratory with Harry Osborn and Ad.

"Let's go too."

Su Quan and Felicia Hardy left the company and returned to their residence.

Silk and Spider-Girl had gone to San Francisco and hadn't returned yet, so Su Quan kept Felicia Hardy behind.

Keeping her wasn't because the long night made it hard to sleep; well, at least that wasn't the main reason.

"You don't need to worry about Peter Parker, but the Lizard Professor, that is, Professor Curt Connors, you must catch him back."

"Yes."

Although Felicia Hardy felt it was tricky, she didn't shirk the responsibility; after all, it was her duty!

With great power comes great responsibility!

If she were content to be an ordinary assistant, she naturally wouldn't need to risk her life to deal with inhuman monsters, but if she wanted to stand on her own, gain higher status, and greater power, she had to bear the corresponding risks and responsibilities.

Su Quan was very satisfied with her answer and attitude. He chuckled and comforted her: "You are my assistant; naturally, I won't let you throw eggs against a rock. If you get scratched or bruised and leave any scars, I'm the one who loses out."

Felicia Hardy's reaction was quick. As soon as Su Quan said that, she knew her opportunity had arrived.

Sure enough, a vial of brightly colored serum appeared in Su Quan's hand.

"This is the Super Soldier Serum. It has a one-hundred-percent success rate. After injection, it can enhance the user's metabolic function and all physical capabilities, reaching the peak of human potential."

"And you will age very slowly and live a very long time."

Felicia Hardy's eyes lit up instantly. Not to mention the other benefits, just the fact that she would age very slowly was enough to make her ecstatic.

After all, strength is temporary, but beauty is for a lifetime!

"Pfft—"

At Su Quan's request, Felicia Hardy injected the Super Soldier Serum in the most candid manner.

Immediately after, an overwhelming wave of pain struck.

As Black Cat, Felicia Hardy had no other outstanding abilities besides perfect balance. Her physical fitness in all aspects was better than an ordinary person's, which was the result of years of training.

Now, though—who would train themselves when they could use a cheat code!

In terms of physical fitness, injecting the Super Soldier Serum was definitely stronger than the original Black Cat.

In terms of abilities, the original Black Cat possessed rich hand-to-hand combat experience and was a high-level gymnast and acrobat, which was why she could perform high-difficulty moves in combat and action.

Although Felicia Hardy might not be as professional as the original, she had practiced and could hold her own. Later, he would download a Martial Arts Master ability for her, and her combat power would definitely far exceed the original.

As for the uniform, that went without saying. Whether it was the material, function, or defensive capability, the Void Battle Bead uniform was far better than the one she had made herself.

"Uh—"

A low moan sounded.

Felicia Hardy woke up.

Su Quan asked with a smile: "How do you feel?"

Felicia Hardy sensed the changes in herself and said excitedly: "It's wonderful, thank you, Master."

Without realizing it, Felicia Hardy had changed how she addressed him.

She used to call him Boss or Mr., but now, like the others, she changed it to Master.

Su Quan chuckled: "Don't be in such a hurry to thank me; what I'm giving you is more than just the Super Soldier Serum."

Psychic ability activated.

Martial Arts Master ability, downloading.

In an instant, hundreds of combat techniques took deep root in Felicia Hardy's mind. Although it would still take some time to integrate them and form muscle memory, she was already a highly skilled combatant.

"This—" The amazed Felicia Hardy was just about to speak, but Su Quan's gifts weren't finished yet.

A string of plain-looking beads was placed on her wrist. Su Quan tapped them lightly, and countless nano-particles quickly covered her entire body. In the blink of an eye, she had transformed into a different look.

A black bodysuit, white fur standing up at the ankles, wrists, and collar, and a black eye mask adhered to her eye sockets, which not only concealed her appearance but also added a touch of mysterious nocturnal charm.

"Physical fitness, combat skills, uniform equipment, you have them all now."

"From now on, you have a new identity and a new codename, called—Black Cat!"

Su Quan looked at her and nodded with satisfaction.

As he looked, his brow furrowed slightly; he vaguely felt that something was wrong. Compared to the Black Cat in his memory, it seemed something was missing.

"Right!"

"It's the hair, the color of the hair!"

When the original Felicia Hardy turned into Black Cat, she would wear a silver wig!
