Chapter 79: The Birth of Dr. Lizard

~6 min read 1,107 words

Dr. Connors' eyes flickered.

Sitting blankly in the office chair, his expression looked very calm, but in reality, his heart was fighting a battle between heaven and man.

On one hand, Dr. Connors also wanted to conduct human experimentation.

After all, why did he research for so long, wasn't it to benefit humanity and let humanity no longer suffer from disability.

But on the other hand, Dr. Connors knew clearly that the current regeneration serum was unstable.

Because up to now, only one, and only one, lab mouse achieved the result he dreamed of after being injected with the regeneration agent.

But the key to the problem appeared here.

They didn't know why it succeeded.

Yes.

It succeeded, but they didn't know why it succeeded, and they couldn't replicate it either.

Because they didn't even know where the problem was; if they couldn't find the problem, naturally they couldn't replicate it.

Medicine is rigorous and cannot tolerate the slightest carelessness.

Especially when it comes to human experimentation, let alone a problem, even if there is a slight confusion, it must be resolved before proceeding to the next step.

So...

From an emotional point of view, no one hoped to see the success of the regeneration agent more than him.

But from a rational point of view, the board of directors' approach was undoubtedly making a joke of the lives of those disabled soldiers.

Dr. Connors' heart was fighting a battle between heaven and man at this moment.

Angels and demons appeared in his mind.

The angel told him that doing this was wrong, and if something happened, God would not forgive himself.

But the demon told him that medicine is destined to require sacrifice, and if it succeeded, even if he died and went to heaven, the angels would have to give up their seats for him.

Dr. Connors sat blankly in the office.

The sunlight shining through the window hit his face, and the light and shadow constantly intersected.

Just like this.

He sat in his office from the afternoon until night fell.

With a 'ding-dong' of the phone, Dr. Connors, who was in a state of battle between heaven and man, was awakened.

He grabbed his phone and opened the text message that had just been sent.

In his sight.

Doctor, I am already on the way to the hospital, we believe in you.

After reading.

Dr. Connors' gaze was scattered.

Immediately after!

With a 'swoosh'.

Dr. Connors stood up from his seat instantly, and then, as if he had made some kind of determination, walked toward the door with a firm gaze.

The camera responsible for monitoring the laboratory stayed quietly in the corner.

The red light flashed on and off.

With a 'ding', in the laboratory, the 'Bio-Engineering Mixer' responsible for cross-species gene splicing and fusion was successfully opened, and a bottle of serum that looked green in color was taken out by Dr. Connors.

I may not be an angel, but I absolutely cannot be a demon.

Dr. Connors looked at the regeneration agent in his hand, which was fused from the mutant serum extracted from the lab mouse's body and the lizard serum, muttered to himself, then looked firm, grabbed this bottle of regeneration agent, and sat to the side.

After a while.

Dr. Connors, sitting in the chair, looked at the syringe in his hand, took a deep breath, then didn't hesitate to stab the syringe into his right arm, which he had lost due to an accident, and then quickly pushed the syringe to the end.

Almost at the moment he pulled out the syringe, a sense of dizziness without any prelude instantly surged into his heart.

Thump!

Dr. Connors fell headfirst onto the table in front of him.

At the same time, at the missing part of his right arm, at this very moment, something seemed to be wriggling inside, wanting to struggle out.

As if...

"A bug?"

"Hmm, a very small lizard."

Gwen, who had finished dinner, returned to her room, and was talking on the phone with Hawk, was telling the interesting story of her eight-year-old brother being scared by a lizard that crawled out from who knows where during dinner.

Hawk listened to Gwen's laughter on the other end of the phone and was a bit curious.

"Aren't you afraid?"

"Hawk."

Gwen said righteously: "You forgot, our laboratory's regeneration agent got its inspiration from lizards; the laboratory doesn't have much else, but it has many lab mice and lizards."

She is not some delicate little woman.

She is a cold-hearted scientist who can drain the blood of a lizard without changing her expression, and can also dissect a lab mouse without changing her expression.

Hawk suddenly realized and smiled.

Gwen also smiled, then changed the topic.

"What about you, have you finished eating?"

"No."

Hawk looked at the fried chicken leg he had just bought: "Preparing to go to the rooftop to practice boxing, and eat after boxing."

No way, new semester, the old gymnasium was demolished and rebuilt into a swimming pool.

And there are many people in the new gymnasium, especially today; after all, it's a new semester, new ninth-grade students, so there are even more people in the gymnasium.

So Hawk simply thought, wait until he goes home at night, then practice boxing on the rooftop, and then eat, take a bath, and sleep.

Gwen listened to Hawk's plan for the next steps, nodded, and then thought of something.

"Hawk, can I ask you a question?"

"Of course."

"Why do you practice boxing every day? You are already powerful enough."

Gwen said.

In her mind, the image appeared.

Hawk standing in the pool with his upper body bare.

The waterfall flowing backward in front of Hawk.

Gwen didn't know if that backward-flowing waterfall was Hawk's doing; after all, she hadn't seen it with her own eyes.

But she didn't doubt at all that the current Hawk could kill a bear with one punch.

This was what she saw with her own eyes.

That day, when Gwen saw Hawk kill a bear with one punch, she felt lucky and scared.

After all, when she walked through the forest to find Hawk, she didn't encounter a single beast; one could imagine how lucky she was.

Not right either.

Maybe this was God's will.

Gwen then thought of the unknown website that could provide her with Hawk's real-time location even when Hawk's phone was clearly turned off.

Just as Gwen was recalling Maryland and that unknown website, Hawk also fell into silence after hearing Gwen's question.

"Why practice boxing every day?" ===== CHAPTER 81 =====
