A violent blaze erupted, and a dark shadow, like flowing darkness, moved swiftly between the skyscrapers, finally standing steadily on a tall building with the help of a tentacle.

"Damn it, they really dare!" A hideous face revealed half of Harry's features, overlooking the burning vehicles below like flames. His expression was a complex mix of shock and ruthlessness.

Little Harry didn't believe this was an accidental attack. In his opinion, whether there was evidence or not, he had to consider the worst-case scenario. This was what Big Harry had told him.

Those people wanted to collude and kick him out of the board of directors, keeping him away from the power of Osborn, which he could understand. But after encountering resistance, they resorted to such methods to force him out, which he couldn't accept at all.

If Big Harry hadn't prepared protective measures for him in advance, even if he had survived this time, he would have been seriously injured. By then, let alone taking control of Osborn, everything would probably have been settled by the time he recovered.

A weirdo giggling and flying nimbly like a bird between the tall buildings gradually disappeared into the towering structures under Little Harry's gaze, vanishing from sight.

It was the other party who suddenly launched the attack just now.

Little Harry knew this person, a rising criminal master, code-named Vulture.

"Why not fight back?" Little Harry, controlled by the symbiote, communicated with it. Yes, the symbiote on his body had its own will, but this will was more like a pre-set program, rigid and inflexible.

When Little Harry first learned that he could communicate with it, he wanted to talk to it more, but he quickly became bored and felt uninteresting because it either remained silent to his questions or gave irrelevant answers.

"Mission 1: Protect your safety and take you away from danger when danger occurs. This priority is the highest until further notice!"

The symbiote's consciousness communicated with Little Harry.

"Can't you just solve the problem?" Little Harry knew that this setting was for his own good by Big Harry, but at this moment, he could clearly feel the surging and powerful force on his body, but he could only watch the perpetrator escape, which made him very unhappy.

"Mission 2: Counterattack and break through only if you cannot leave the dangerous area and are surrounded. I have already sent a request for assistance," the symbiote replied to Little Harry in a rigid manner.

"In other words, you have notified Harry in some way? That is, the other me?" Little Harry calmed down and ignored the bodyguards who were braking urgently below, rushing to put out the fire and rescue people, focusing on communicating with the symbiote.

"We have our own mental network," the symbiote replied, then added: "The danger has passed, please stay here and wait for pickup."

Not long after this sentence was spoken, a helicopter's propeller hovered with noise and wind over the high-rise building where Little Harry was, and after picking up Little Harry, it quickly disappeared into the night.

Osborn Mansion.

Basement.

"Thank you, if it weren't for you, I might have suffered serious consequences this time." Seeing Big Harry busy, Little Harry, who had calmed down a bit on the way, became emotional again. He stepped forward quickly and hugged Big Harry, gratefully saying.

"It's nothing, we are one now. Helping you is helping me." Big Harry was not surprised by Little Harry's emotional actions. He had already received corresponding real-time information from the symbiote, so he understood the high emotions of himself in this world. After all, he had just brushed shoulders with death, and it was normal for someone who had been pampered since childhood to not have experienced this kind of stimulation.

"You're right." Little Harry calmed down after hearing his words and took two steps back, nodding. "Since those guys have done such a thing, I don't think I will have any more scruples."

"Just handle it yourself. The sooner you seize the power of Osborn and establish the right to speak and authority, the sooner we can use Osborn's capital to expand and grow rapidly.

The instruments in this laboratory are indeed very [high-end], but they will be of less and less help to us. We need more instruments, more helpers, and more connections. Just nesting in this small underground laboratory, we have no way to make Osborn the greatest corporate giant in the world, nor can I find my way home, let alone deal with the enemy that may attack at any time in the dark.

Our time is not abundant." Big Harry also nodded in satisfaction.

"Are the laboratory's instruments and materials not enough? I can help you find some more," Little Harry said subconsciously.

"No, no, no, there is no room for other instruments here anymore. And no more things to stuff into this place. We have the technology, now we need manpower and scale. It's Osborn Industries! And the interest groups tied to Osborn Industries." Big Harry pointed out: "You can take those technologies out, authorize what should be authorized, and bind the interests that should be bound.

You can also attract some new partners to fill in Osborn's subsequent alliances. Money is not the most important thing for us right now. If it can help our plan, then some benefits can be given to the other party."

"Promote psionics?" Little Harry understood.

"Yes, promote psionics. As long as we can promote it, then we will be invincible. When the time comes, if you want to take back the benefits you paid out, it won't be difficult.

When I connect to my universe and re-establish contact with the Time Administration, if you are willing, I can recommend you to join it as a recommender, so you can see a broader landscape and world." Big Harry nodded heavily.

Without the help of data dimensions, his research and manufacturing progress was too slow. Once a person has enjoyed that extreme convenience, it becomes increasingly difficult to accept returning to the slow scientific research environment of the past.

Big Harry now extremely missed the existence of data dimensions, which allowed researchers to drastically increase the speed of producing finished products and manufacturing finished products. He was already very accustomed to using data dimensions to discuss and enumerate his research, and to paying currency to manufacture samples, and then using the process to reverse engineer the manufacturing process for mass production.

But now, without data dimensions, he could only collect materials, adjust instruments, and then explore the manufacturing of finished products step by step. Although he had the technology, the accumulation of time was inevitably prolonged.

Especially since various technologies required different instruments, and most of these instruments needed to be purchased, and there were only a very few familiar companies in this world that could manufacture these instruments, and these companies did not lack orders. Even taking shortcuts through connections and money still required a certain amount of time.

Not to mention some devices that did not exist in this world and could only be customized according to Big Harry's needs.

...

Osborn was extraordinarily lively these days, monopolizing the front pages of many mainstream newspapers.

First, Osborn's heir was attacked, and the police station, which had accepted Osborn's donation, searched the city for traces of the Vulture. Then, Harry Osborn, who was thought to be seriously injured, was not only unscathed, but also inexplicably won the subsequent shareholders' meeting and took control of the company's power.

Conversely, some losers had to start considering their escape routes. Driven back by Little Harry and his newly entered fierce new alliance, they had to leave Osborn in dismay, selling the stocks in their hands to those pharmaceutical giants and energy giants.

After their dismal departure, Osborn announced the existence of the Lizard Potion and authorized it to several pharmaceutical companies of Osborn's new major shareholders, and these companies had enough connections and capabilities to help the potion be launched quickly.

Little Harry's first move after just securing his position was to acquire a construction company under the puzzling attention of everyone, and apply to undertake the metropolis's public facilities renovation and other expensive and thankless projects.

It was revealed that the engineering expenditure reached an astonishing level, causing all the media to secretly laugh at Little Harry while praising him in the media.

Later, there were rumors that Osborn Industries had a new type of construction machinery technology that could greatly speed up the construction period of buildings while ensuring quality and quantity. Little Harry planned to use this city's public works as a GG model to showcase it.

In the following year, Osborn Industries suddenly became a frequent visitor to major media outlets because every once in a while, when the previous report had not completely cooled down, a new explosive point had already been generated. One new technology after another was continuously produced within Osborn Industries, many of which could be described as world-changing.

And the inventor of these technologies was Harry Osborn, the new head of Osborn Industries. As the patent owner and inventor of these technologies, Harry Osborn received even more attention like a celebrity.

Pharmaceuticals, chemicals, food, energy, machinery, intelligence.

The fields that Osborn Industries expanded into this year were suffocating. It also had a disruptive and huge impact on the world's original technological landscape. The patent barriers built by those giants were subjected to a dimensional reduction strike by Osborn Industries' new technologies. Fortunately, Osborn Industries still granted technology licenses and conducted a complex round of cross-shareholding.

As Osborn Industries' reputation grew, Harry's prestige in the technology world also increased, and the number of scientific researchers recruited by Osborn Industries also increased day by day.

Or rather, from the day Harry officially took office and began to lead Osborn, the recruitment of scientific research talents had never stopped. Harry Osborn threw most of the company's profits into one research project after another like crazy, and his own success also silenced all dissenting people and shareholders. Although they felt sorry for the money that was pouring out like water, they could not stop Harry's actions at all.

The other party had a high degree of control on the board of directors, and had a fanatical idol-like status in the hearts of employees, especially Osborn's scientific researchers. Even for collaborators and them, they had to rely on the other party's technology and the value of the benefits created by these technologies.

Under Osborn's sophisticated and superb means that were different from the woodenness of other real scientific researchers, everyone knew that Osborn's current state had problems, everyone believed that Osborn's state could not last, and everyone was waiting for Osborn to stop, or even face a predicament due to radicalism, but those important technologies that were constantly launched repeatedly stimulated Osborn's stock price to rise.

In many of Osborn's laboratories, apart from the projects that Harry Osborn himself was responsible for, the most outstanding and comparable to him were the project teams of Reed Richards and Susan Stone, who had been swept out of the house by a giant company due to an accident.

Osborn's unique research atmosphere and relatively loose funding allocation made Reed Richards, who was always troubled by research funding, almost like a fish in water. He could always research various magical devices, and he could always complete the research tasks assigned by Harry on time. This allowed him to quickly stand out among a group of invested people and become a key contracted researcher cultivated by Osborn. Reed Richards' high task completion rate and high technology output rate also enabled his project team to allocate more and more funds and become more and more relied upon.

Finally, after discussing with Big Harry, Little Harry pulled him and Susan and others into Osborn's most core technology group, responsible for researching psionics. Reed, who was exposed to this magical energy for the first time, almost fell into it in an instant. He almost fanatically and forgetfully immersed himself in the analysis and research of psionics. He even forgot his girlfriend Susan Stone. And Susan, as Reed's girlfriend, was obviously prepared for this state of her boyfriend, and was used to it.

She could understand her boyfriend's obsession, she was also very interested in psionics, and she also had a strong desire for research, but she was not as obsessed as her boyfriend.

In the past, she did not like Reed's state, because once the other party fell into this state, he would ignore her and everyone's existence. This made her angry. But now, she would not be so, but instead support Reed's obsession. Because Reed told her that once psionics were thoroughly researched, it would be easy to use this energy to restore their physical changes to normal. Even reactivate this power when needed.

In other words, they could freely control the switch of their own abilities. When the time comes, Ben Grimm can also be restored to a human and start a new life.
