A gentle knock...
Pah!
The moment the stone, housed in the transparent control box, shattered, a strange light, invisible to the naked eye but visible to Hawke, emanated from the stone.
At that moment, his inner universe trembled.
Clearly,it was telling him something.
Gammanion—
he had found it.
After absorbing the message from his inner universe, Hawke understood what Gammanion was, and a silent smile escaped his lips.
The reason was simple.
Gammanion, to put it simply, was gamma rays that, for unknown reasons, had been transformed from unstorable gamma rays into storable ones.
This was Gammanion.
Hmm.
It sounded ridiculous.
But that didn't matter anymore.
What mattered was that Hawke now knew where to find the Gammanion he needed.
Quantico!
The laboratory where Bruce Banner was struck by the gamma-ray explosion.
After leading Hawke in, Gwen, who was temporarily acting as a tour guide, saw Hawke, his gaze fixed on the shattered stone, and subconsciously nudged him with her elbow.
Hawke regained consciousness and looked at Gwen.
His eyes were clear...
"Hmm?"
"What are you thinking about?"
Gwen frowned. "You don't really want to become a monster like the Abomination, do you?"
She thought of Hawke's obsessed look just now, and she had a feeling that Hawke didn't intend to be a human anymore.
Hawke temporarily suppressed the thought of running to Quantico and shook his head.
"How could that be? I was just wondering if Dr. Connors's experiment was about to succeed."
Gwen was about to speak
when
Dr. Connors, who had just watched Gwen bring someone in, walked over.
Hearing this, he interrupted, "Scientific research is a path of trial and error, but it does feel like we're on the road to success."
Gwen turned to greet Dr. Connors as he approached.
"Doctor."
"Curtis, Curtis Connors."
Connors, also wearing a white coat but with one arm, smiled and extended his left hand to Hawke. "You are..."
Hawke looked at Dr. Connors's outstretched hand and smiled as he extended his own.
"Hawk, Gwen's classmate, currently working as a summer intern in the Bio-Electrical Engineering Department. By the way, I came here with Mr. Dillon. I asked Gwen if she could give me a tour. Sorry to bother you, Doctor."
Dr. Connors laughed.
"I just heard you and Gwen talking. Do you really think my experiment can succeed?"
Hawke smiled and said, "I've read Dr. Connors's thesis.
It's clear that if your experiment succeeds, it will benefit humanity."
This wasn't flattery, but fact.
If Dr. Connors's regeneration experiment succeeded, the world would be free of disabled people.
Of course, he was referring to people with physical disabilities.
That's why Hawke said it would benefit humanity, not all of humanity.
But all this presupposed that Dr. Connors could actually develop a regeneration potion, not just some lizard serum that could turn people into lizardmen.
But that's highly unlikely.
Dr. Connors' transformation into Dr. Lizard was primarily due to The Amazing Spider-Man's warning.
While the Dr. Connors before him resembled the Dr. Connors from the Amazing Spider-Man movie, there was no Amazing Spider-Man here.
There was a Spider-Spirit,but he was currently working a summer job at the Daily Bugle and unlikely to appear.
So the chances of Dr. Connors here becoming Dr. Lizard were actually less likely than Max Dillon, the maintenance worker outside, becoming Electro next year.
Hawke, however, was impeccable in his words.
He didn't say whether he believed them or not, only that Dr. Connors's experiment, if successful, could benefit humanity.
Dr. Connors was impressed and laughed heartily, but he didn't say anything else.
As he left, he said to Gwen, "Gwen, can you tell your classmates about our progress?"
It was rare for someone to be so positive about his experiment.
Furthermore, Gwen hadn't been involved in any of the core technologies, and the progress was public, so there were no leaks.

Gwen responded, and after Dr. Connors left, she stood side by side with Hawke again and whispered, "Do you really think Dr. Connors's experiment will succeed?"
Hawke, who had just watched the experimenter who had smashed the gamma stone walk to the nearby centrifuge, glanced at Gwen.
Just as he was about to shake his head in disbelief, he seemed to notice something and looked up at the lightbulb overhead.
The bulb on the lab's roof flickered rapidly.
The next moment, with a bang, the lights in the entire lab suddenly went out.
"Bang!"
"Hou Ni..."
"Puff!"
A sudden explosion echoed in the darkness, accompanied by a rapid exclamation.
Hawke felt a sudden pressure coming towards...
Gwen!
Without a second thought, Hawke instinctively extended his right hand to block Gwen's path.
"Puff!"
"..."
Hawke felt the pain in his palm, his brow furrowed.
At the same time, the lab's emergency lights quickly came back online after the lights went out.
The red emergency lights illuminated the cold laboratory, creating a somewhat eerie atmosphere.
Especially when they saw a body lying in a pool of blood.
A female researcher, clutching her bleeding neck, collapsed on the ground beside the ruptured centrifuge.
Blood seeped through the cracks between her fingers, bubbling outwards.
Several mice scurried about on the floor.
"Hou Ni Xie Te!"
"Mia?"
"Jesus Christ."
"Mia!"
Everyone under the red emergency lights watched the scene, their faces drastically changed.
Some ran outside the lab to call for help, while others simultaneously ran towards the fallen body.
Gwen's gaze fell on Hawke, who had withdrawn his right hand and placed it behind his back.
Her eyes flickered as she turned sideways to face Hawke.
"Hand out your hand."
"What?"
Hawke was slightly startled.
Without a word, Gwen reached out, grabbed Hawke's arm, pulled his right hand out from behind, and pulled it open.
It was eye-catching
Hawke's right palm was intact, save for a patch of skin on the center that looked like new growth.
Gwen was stunned.
Hawke smiled and retracted his right hand. "My hand isn't as pretty as yours."
Gwen frowned, silent.
Just then, Osborn's medical staff and security rushed in and began clearing the area.
Hawke took advantage of the chaos in the lab and left with a dazed Max.
Gwen stood outside, frowning.
She was certain she had seen correctly.
Just then, when the lights dimmed, she had felt a distinct pressure, a squeeze of air.
It had vanished as quickly as it had come, but she had seen it clearly: a few drops of blood dripping down her face.
But Hawke's palm was perfectly fine.
Wait a minute.
Gwen's vision lit up, as if a thought had occurred to her.
She walked to the lab door and looked back at where she had been standing.
On the floor on the white floor, a few drops of blood were clearly visible!
A little white mouse with a broken tail ran over there.
After sniffing it, its eyes seemed to light up, and it stretched out its tongue to scoop up the few drops of blood.
Shit!
Gwen came to her senses and hurriedly ran inside.
