Winston walked through the waist-high weeds, Dr. Lada limping along behind him. They'd been sent out to gather information about the outside world.
Norman Osborn, for the time being, had been scared witless by the Green Goblin and dared not appear before humans so openly anymore.
"Why don't you use a Lizard Serum? Your broken leg and missing left hand would grow back quickly."
Winston asked, seemingly casually. They hadn't survived the Green Goblin's attack without cost. Winston had nearly died. Dr. Lada's Green Goblin armor had been largely destroyed, barely saving his life, but his left leg and left hand had been crushed.
"For my master, the most valuable thing I possess is the intelligence in this brain. Becoming a Lizard-Man would only lead to him completely discarding me."
Dr. Lada said breathlessly. He was wearing Green Goblin armor that had been partially repaired, so he hadn't completely lost his ability to move.
Winston's face remained expressionless, but his heart skipped a beat. He judged that Dr. Lada was lying. The possible reason behind the doctor's unwillingness to inject the Lizard Serum, even with his disabilities, made him shudder.
Norman Osborn had come to New York specifically, and it certainly wasn't just to save him and make him a subordinate. Winston was self-aware; he knew his own strength was insignificant to Osborn. Saving him definitely had another motive.
The two, each harboring their own ulterior motives, traversed the lush grassland and stopped before a deep, dark cavern. The cavern was bottomless, sloping downwards into the earth, eerily dark. Without any hesitation, the two men entered the cavern, slowly swallowed by the darkness.
After proceeding nearly a hundred meters through the dark cavern, the path suddenly opened into a vast cave.
Norman Osborn's massive frame was sprawled across a giant rock, inhaling and exhaling with the force of wind and thunder. The wounds inflicted upon him by K3 and Broly had completely healed, leaving no scars. However, having expended so much energy, he was constantly hungry and in a very agitated mood.
Hearing the movement of the two men, his eyes snapped open, revealing two cold, glowing points in the darkness of the cave. A palpable aura of violence, like a tidal wave, surged towards them, brutal and savage.
Winston's legs buckled, and he collapsed to the ground. Dr. Lada fared even worse, trembling so violently that he could barely control his body.
After being frightened into fleeing underground by the Green Goblin, Norman Osborn had become increasingly volatile and inexplicably cruel.
"What have you found?"
A voice, raspy like sandpaper, echoed through the cave, as the cold light landed on the two men.
"My lord, we've located a very suitable target. It contains a massive amount of radioactive material and has very weak defenses."
Winston's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly pulled a newspaper from his pocket.
"Let me see?"
Norman Osborn's face lit up with excitement. He knew Winston wouldn't dare lie to him.
Winston stumbled to his feet and walked in front of Norman Osborn.
With Norman Osborn's eyesight, he could see everything clearly, even in the dark. He scanned the newspaper and took in the contents immediately.
"The estimated amount of contaminated water leakage from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant will reach 1.6 million tons by the end of the year. A senior executive from Tokyo Electric Power Company admitted that the leakage of radioactive wastewater from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant is 'not under control'."
"All nuclear power plants and nuclear arsenals across the United States have increased their security. The authorities have even chosen to shut down several nuclear power plants located in remote areas and have hired some powerful mutants. It's difficult for us to break through their defenses and seize the Fuel Rods within the nuclear power plants. But in Japan, it's different. Their nuclear power plants are almost completely defenseless, and we can easily break in."
Winston lowered his head. "More importantly, if we go to Japan, we can avoid the Green Goblin."
As soon as he finished speaking, a long tail wrapped around his neck, dragging him before Norman Osborn. Hot breath blasted onto him, causing the scales on his body to twist and dry, and the muscle tissue underneath began to show signs of burns.
"You mean I have to hide from the Green Goblin?"
Norman Osborn's voice was filled with rage, each word spat from his gut, causing a whistling echo throughout the cave.
He had completely forgotten how he had scrambled away from Broly's attack earlier. The frenzied, violent aura almost suffocated Winston.
After a long while, Winston's body was flung away, crashing into the rock wall and collapsing a section of it. Under the Lizardman's regenerative abilities, his injuries quickly healed, but the pain remained.
"I'll only give you one chance. Next time, I'll swallow you whole!"
Norman Osborn sneered.
"Understood, sir."
Winston wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth, his heart growing cold. Norman Osborn, it seemed, truly had other plans for him. He'd clearly intended to kill him just moments ago, but had held back.
Norman Osborn stood up directly.
"But your suggestion is indeed excellent. As long as I devour the Fuel Rods from a few nuclear power plants, my strength will skyrocket again. By then, the Green Goblin will definitely not be my match."
His beastial face was filled with excitement.
After merging with Godzilla's genes, he'd lost his previous composure. With a goal in mind, he immediately prepared to set off. Godzilla resided beneath the earth and in the deep sea. Crossing the vast Pacific Ocean presented no difficulty to Norman Osborn.
However, he couldn't take Winston and the other person with him.
"You two figure out how to get to Japan yourselves. We'll meet up in Fukushima. Don't even think about escaping my control. I've memorized your auras. No matter where you hide, I can find you."
Norman Osborn stared at the two of them, his eyes fixed.
"Of course not, Master. Only by following you do we have a place to belong."
Dr. Lada trembled as he pledged his loyalty, with Winston quickly chiming in to agree.
"Good."
Norman Osborn directly dug into the stone wall of the cave, and before long he had excavated a tunnel that led straight to the seabed. Once in the ocean, his speed increased, squeezing out several white water rings in the water, shooting towards the depths of the Pacific Ocean like lightning and thunder.
His speed in the water was actually much faster than on land.
"Let's go. If we're late, Master will surely be very angry."
Dr. Lada stood up from the ground. He didn't have night vision, so he was very uncomfortable in this dark cave. But before he could steady himself, a whistling wind suddenly came from behind him, and his vision was filled with stars before he lost consciousness.
