Chapter 48 - Chapter 48: Actions from All Sides

Bronski spat out a mouthful of blood. Looking at the Hulk not far away, a hint of resentment flashed in his heart, and then he completely fainted. 

This time he was too severely injured, with most of his bones shattered. Even with the lizard's self-healing factor, he couldn't recover quickly.

The Hulk extended a hand to Betty, who unhesitatingly stepped onto it. The Hulk roared at General Ross, then, carrying Betty, directly disappeared from his sight.

General Ross, with a gloomy expression, punched the steel plate of an armored vehicle and said in a deep voice, "Take Bronski, fall back and return to base!"

Natasha, who had been observing all of this from a distance, had a strange expression. The unstoppable Hulk was tamed by a woman like this?

"This… is truly a dramatic ending." Natasha's mouth twitched, unable to express her feelings at this moment.

"There's an old saying: even the strongest hero can be captivated by a beautiful woman. Looks like that's true after all." Ren wasn't surprised in the slightest. 

He already knew that when the Hulk lost control, reason meant very little to him. There were only a handful of people capable of reaching him, and Betty was one of them. 

As for Natasha... that would come much later. Right now, only Betty could calm the Hulk down.

"However, this guy ran off again, and I don't know when we'll encounter him again. I feel like this mission has failed again," Natasha said helplessly.

"The military will find him. As long as he still wants to solve the gamma radiation problem, he will be caught by the military. Not to mention, he also has a cousin, and he's involved in gang disputes," Ren said indifferently.

Natasha nodded. She wasn't stupid. On the contrary, she was very smart. Things concerning Banner couldn't be rushed…

On the other side, Dr. Connors sat idly in his home. He had been placed under house arrest by the military, charged with abusing drugs to create this Lizard Man. 

And he was asked to produce this serum again. But he righteously refused, and then he was put under house arrest.

"According to this station's investigation, this Lizard Man first appeared at the Disabled Veterans Hospital. It is well known that the New York City Disabled Veterans Hospital is sponsored for research by the Osborn Group. 

It is currently unclear what role the Osborn Group played in this incident. It is reported that the police have launched an investigation into the Osborn Group."

"According to an unnamed informant, this mutated lizard warrior may be Second Lieutenant Joseph, who was recuperating at the Disabled Veterans Hospital. 

Second Lieutenant Joseph was once an excellent soldier, but he was discharged after his spine was broken and he lost both legs during a mission a few days ago."

"Damn capitalists, damn military!" Dr. Connors saw the news report and couldn't help but curse. 

He was a man of principle and would never succumb to such power. But besides cursing, he couldn't do anything. 

He was just a scholar, a scholar with only knowledge. If it came to fighting, he probably couldn't even beat a high school student.

'Bang!'

A loud noise came from outside the room, followed by a burst of gunfire. Dr. Connors didn't know what happened, but he knew his current situation was very bad.

Soon, the gunfire ceased, and the door to his room was violently destroyed. 

A Lizard Man appeared before him, reaching out to grab Dr. Connors while grinning sinisterly, "Dr. Connors, I need your assistance."

"No! What do you want to do?" Dr. Connors tried to resist, but it was completely useless.

When the military personnel arrived there later, there was only a hole leading to the underground sewer, a pile of massacred bodies, huge footprints, and traces of reptile claws. 

"Damn Lizard Man!" The military personnel cursed under their breath, seeing the mess on the ground. 

But there was nothing they could do. Who could have predicted that this Lizard Man would abduct Dr. Connors?

"Hey, what are you doing?" Dr. Connors asked, looking at the Lizard Man. The Lizard Man had no intention of harming him.

"I want you to help me research the serum," Joseph, the Lizard Man, said.

"That's fine. If I wasn't under house arrest, I think I would continue to research the serum until it was perfect," Dr. Connors nodded.

"No! I'm not asking you to help me with that. I want you to develop a device that can turn all of New York into Lizard Men," Joseph said coldly.

"No! I won't help you. Perhaps I can help you research an antidote to restore you to your original state," Dr. Connors tried to negotiate.

"An antidote? To turn back into that weak wretch, Joseph Jameson? You're thinking too much, Doctor. You will help me." The Lizard Man sneered, going deeper and deeper into the New York sewers…

New York, Military's Second Base, Emergency Room.

The military doctor heard footsteps approaching, turned to see General Ross, and immediately stood at attention and saluted, "General Ross!"

"How is Bronski?" General Ross's face was solemn as he looked through the emergency room's glass window at the naked man lying on a large instrument, covered in IV tubes.

"He's still in a deep coma with multiple comminuted fractures all over his body. What's strange, though, is that there's a peculiar power within him constantly repairing his body, but his injuries are too severe. 

If he didn't have such a strong will to live, he would be dead by now," the military doctor said, shaking his head regretfully, without any concealment.

General Ross was silent for a moment upon hearing this, then said with a determined look, "Try giving him that super soldier serum again. Increase the dosage."

"Super soldier serum?" The military doctor was stunned, saying with some disbelief, "His success can already be considered lucky. If he undergoes a second injection, there's a very high chance he'll never wake up."

"This is the only way," General Ross said in a deep voice. 

"Before he confronted the Hulk, he asked me for a second injection. I didn't agree, seeking stability. Now! This is his only chance. Even if he were awake now, he would agree with my choice."

"Okay, I understand. I'll go prepare now!" The military doctor nodded, preparing the super soldier serum for a second injection.

General Ross didn't believe Bronski could survive a second injection of the super soldier serum. Surviving the first was already extremely lucky. A second time would be certain death for him.

"Good luck, soldier." General Ross straightened his military cap, extracted a test tube of blood samples from Bronski, and walked out quickly. 

These blood samples could help refine the super soldier serum even further. At least it could increase the success rate of the serum.
