Chapter 044: Is This Your Evolution?
Connors was engulfed in madness, ready to turn everyone in the city into Lizard People.
For this, Connors came up with a plan.
There was a machine in Osborn Tower.
Through this machine, he could spread the serum throughout the city, turning everyone into Lizard People.
Thinking of this, Connors immediately began to act.
He continued to create the genetic serum and prepared to inject himself, to make himself stronger... Meanwhile, Su Yi, Gwen, and Peter were having coffee at a cafe, briefly discussing how to deal with the situation.
In reality, Su Yi already knew the plot's direction and had made a plan.
"Professor Lizard Connors will next plan to create a serum and use the machine in Osborn Tower to launch the genetic serum, spreading it throughout the city."
"At that time, everyone in the city will turn into Lizard People."
"Perhaps tonight, perhaps tomorrow night, that day won't be too far off."
"So, we need to be ready for battle these next few nights."
Peter was stunned. "What? Su, how do you know?"
"My superpower occasionally allows me to foresee some future events."
Gwen didn't ask about his ability; instead, she inquired about the upcoming battle plan. "So, what should we do?"
"Peter hasn't finished making his battle suit yet, so it's not convenient for him to fight directly."
"Gwen, find an opportunity to enter Osborn Tower and create an antidote."
"As for the fighting, leave it to me."
"This time, I'll directly capture him and then use the antidote to help him detoxify."
Peter said, "Oh, there should be a manufacturing method in the computer, in the XX folder."
After receiving the information, Gwen immediately said, "I understand."
Peter now only regretted that he hadn't finished making his battle suit and couldn't participate in the fight.
Otherwise, he could have helped more.
However, he still had great faith in Su Yi's abilities.
Night fell, Peter listened to the radio at home, intently waiting for news.
Gwen was at home, ready to act at any moment.
Su Yi found an opportunity to contact Chief George, Gwen's father.
"Hello, this is George."
"Hello there, Chief George, I am Spider Bully."
George immediately tensed up. "Is there something you need?"
"I've found some clues about Professor Lizard. He plans to create more serum to turn normal people into Lizard monsters."
"And in this plan, there's a crucial tool: a machine in Osborn Tower."
"This machine can launch the genetic serum into the air, scattering it throughout the city."
George didn't act immediately. "How can you prove what you're saying?"
"Are you going to wait until your family all turn into lizards?"
"I'm not sure when he'll attack Osborn Tower, but you should at least send people to strengthen patrols."
"Also, it's best to have your people equipped with gas masks to avoid inhaling the serum and turning into Lizard monsters."
George heard Su Yi's reminder and knew it was time to act.
"If they turn into Lizard monsters, can they turn back?"
"If we can create an antidote, theoretically, yes. But I don't think anyone would want to experience becoming a lizard, would they?"
"I will arrange for personnel to patrol and strengthen security."
George could only trust Su Yi and arranged for personnel to patrol.
If Professor Lizard really appeared, having people nearby would allow them to evacuate the public immediately.
George's subordinates couldn't understand why they needed to strengthen patrols in the streets near Osborn Tower.
But it was an order, so they could only comply.
George's subordinates patrolled various streets, keeping a watchful eye for Professor Lizard.
In a certain neighborhood, a few of George's subordinates had just finished patrolling the vicinity.
They parked their vehicle by the side of the road, preparing to have a cup of coffee.
The few men chatted while drinking coffee.
"I really don't know what the boss is thinking. How could Professor Lizard appear here?"
"If he doesn't appear here, where would he appear?"
"Maybe a dumpster. Lizards probably like to eat garbage, right?"
"I don't know, maybe."
Suddenly, Professor Lizard emerged from a nearby sewer.
He then began to run wildly through the streets, heading for Osborn Tower.
Unbeknownst to him, the area around Osborn Tower had been secured by George.
As soon as Professor Lizard appeared, he caused panic among nearby pedestrians.
The few men still drinking coffee realized something was wrong and quickly drove over to investigate.
"This is Team C. There's an anomaly near Team C. Pedestrians are fleeing in fright. We are heading to investigate the situation."
"Received, received!"
George received the information, immediately checked the map, and then mobilized personnel to further encircle and intercept.
"Target is in Sector C, moving towards Osborn Tower."
"Evacuate personnel, surround him!"
Song Chuan heard the sound nearby and immediately acted.
First, he brought Gwen over so she could make the serum.
Next, it was naturally Su Yi's turn to deal with Professor Lizard.
George's subordinates also tried their best to stop Professor Lizard, but the current Professor Lizard had already transformed into his complete form.
Unless an antidote was used, he would remain in his Lizard form forever.
Professor Lizard in his complete form was not afraid of bullets, allowing them to hit him.
It certainly hurt a bit, but he wouldn't be injured.
Professor Lizard looked at the fully armed law enforcers and knew that the serum couldn't infect them, so he could only choose other targets, preparing to infect pedestrians.
Or he would find a way to destroy the respirators of these law enforcers and then use the serum.
He feigned Death, waiting for the law enforcers to approach.
Professor Lizard suddenly erupted, destroying the respirators.
The serum vial shattered, and the gaseous serum quickly spread.
Those who inhaled the serum immediately felt unwell and began to mutate.
Su Yi descended from the sky at this moment, blocking Professor Lizard's path.
Professor Lizard looked at the appearing Su Yi, not taking him seriously at all.
Last time, he had defeated Gwen with his strength.
In his opinion, Su Yi and Gwen were similar, and their strength should also be similar.
"You cannot stop me. I am stronger and smarter than last time."
"I represent evolution, I represent the future of humanity."
Su Yi scoffed, "Turning into a lizard, you tell me this is evolution?"
"Stronger, smarter, longer-lived—this is evolution."
Su Yi sneered, "So, let me see your evolved power!"
Professor Lizard was thoroughly enraged and immediately lunged at Su Yi.
George, watching from afar, saw Su Yi standing still as Professor Lizard pounced, and he immediately panicked.
"He wouldn't turn into a Lizard monster too, would he?"
George couldn't imagine how strong Su Yi would become if he also turned into a Lizard monster.
However, the scene George imagined did not occur.
Professor Lizard's arm was easily caught by Su Yi, who then slammed him to the ground, as if the very Earth trembled with the impact.
Finally, a foot was placed on Professor Lizard's body.
"Is this your so-called evolution?"
"Pathetic!"
