Plunder the Heavens from American Comics

Chapter 44 Dr. Connors

Dr. Lizard, whose real name is Curtis "Curtis" Connors.

He was once a colleague of Peter's father, Richard Parker.

The two jointly developed cross-species gene transplantation technology. But he didn't know that Richard and his wife were both CIA agents.

During a mission, the two had their identities discovered by Hydra, who set them up to board a problematic plane.

Both of them eventually lost their lives in the plane crash.

Richard did not tell Connors about the key algorithm of cross-species gene transplantation technology, the decay rate algorithm.

So even after more than a decade, there has been no progress in the project except for the genetically modified spiders that Richard bred back then.

Until Peter Parker came to Dr. Connors with the decay rate algorithm he found in his basement.

But it is obvious that Connors' IQ is indeed not as good as Richard Parker's.

The lizard serum he developed had a fatal flaw, which was that it would not only turn the user into a lizard in appearance.

Even in terms of thinking, they will become cold-blooded animals.

This is also the reason why Dr. Connors came up with the idea of ​​having all the people in New York become lizard people together with him.

Back to Midtown High School.

At this time, Dr. Lizard was staring at Jonathan. Under the influence of the serum, his eyeballs had turned into the shape of a lizard.

Those erect pupils looked cold and a bit creepy.

He stared at Jonathan and said angrily, "Little guy, your behavior just now has successfully angered me!"

After saying that, Dr. Connors ignored Peter Parker and rushed towards Jonathan.

"No!" Seeing this, Peter wanted to stand up and stop Connors, but obviously, Connors moved too fast.

At this time, he had come in front of Jonathan, revealing a very cruel smile, and waving his huge claws towards Jonathan's mask.

Unable to bear seeing the bloody scene, Peter had to close his eyes.

But the next moment, everyone was surprised to see Jonathan holding the sword in his right hand and raising his left hand.

Just like that, he blocked Dr. Lizard with the strength of one hand.

"You! How did you do it!"

Obviously, Jonathan's power is completely beyond Dr. Lizard's understanding.

He looked at Jonathan in surprise.

Hearing Dr. Lizard's voice, Peter also opened his tightly closed eyes, wanting to see what was happening.

As a result, when he saw this surprising scene, he subconsciously wondered if the other person was bitten by the mutant spider like him.

Faced with Connors' question, Jonathan did not answer, but just smiled, and then used his right hand when he was completely unable to react.

Swung a sword.

With a flash of sword, Dr. Lizard's right hand was cut off by Jonathan at the wrist.

The pain made Connors step back involuntarily, and then the part of his right hand fell to the ground.

"Cool!" Peter Parker couldn't help but say in this situation.

This sword really impressed him.

But in fact, Jonathan had to strike with this sword because he had no choice.

Because he just clearly felt that even if he used all his strength, he could only barely block a casual palm from Dr. Lizard.

If the other party continues to exert force, I will probably be the one who is forced to retreat.

So he could only rely on his speed advantage to swing his sword and cut off Connors' right hand.

However, this action made Connors even angrier.

He was originally a disabled person without his right hand. Although after Jonathan cut off his right hand, it grew back in less than half a minute.

But the mental damage caused by Jonathan's sword is irreparable!
An enraged Connors picked up a large rock on the ground and threw it at Jonathan.

Although the aim was not very good, the stone was big enough, so for a moment, Jonathan had to dodge around because of Dr. Lizard's force.

Taking this opportunity, Peter did not stand there in a daze, he retrieved his schoolbag.

Then when Dr. Connors was distracted by Jonathan, he secretly put on Spider-Man's tights.

"Hey! Dr. Connors!" After Peter changed his clothes, he shouted to Connors.

Connors looked over subconsciously, and then a ball of spider silk sprayed in front of his eyes.

He temporarily lost his eyesight.

Taking this opportunity, Peter also came to Jonathan's side and asked, "Are you okay?"

Jonathan didn't say anything, just shook his head to indicate that he was fine.

Although he was accidentally knocked down by stones several times, it was obvious that he was not seriously injured thanks to the vampire's recovery ability.

Connors pulled away the spider silk in front of him.

He looked at Peter angrily, and then asked loudly, "Peter! Why are you trying to stop me? I just want to help humans evolve better!"

After hearing what Connors said, Jonathan couldn't help but complain.

"Doctor, that's not called evolution. It's more appropriate to call it distortion."

Hearing this, Dr. Lizard turned his head towards Jonathan and bared his mouth.

Those sharp teeth seemed ready to tear Jonathan apart at any time.

Jonathan's words seemed to have successfully offended him.

"This voice! It sounds so familiar!" Peter Parker on the side thought to himself.

But at the same time, his hands did not slow down.

Because at this time most of the students in the school had been evacuated.

So he didn't hold himself back any more.

So under the combined attack of him and Jonathan, Dr. Connors was clearly at a disadvantage.

Especially Jonathan's sword, which kept causing wounds on him.

You know, healing these wounds requires energy, and the energy consumption comes from the lizard serum.

Connors couldn't imagine what would happen to him if the serum's energy ran out, so when he saw that he was no match for his opponent, he had no choice but to run away.

So Connors began to consciously evacuate towards the sewer.

"Oh no! This guy is trying to run away! Stop him quickly!" Jonathan noticed something was wrong at the first moment.

If we let him run away, there will be trouble later.

Who knows if Peter today can stop Dr. Connors from using the Canary Device to launch a cloud of Lizard Serum.

As a result, all the people in New York were infected and turned into lizard people.

After hearing Jonathan's words, Peter's first reaction was to step forward to stop Dr. Lizard.

However, in terms of strength, Dr. Lizard is obviously much stronger than Peter.

Peter was accidentally knocked away by Dr. Lizard.

At the same time, Dr. Lizard also successfully escaped into the sewer.

Jonathan stood in the toilet, looking at the hole dug by Dr. Lizard.

Looking at Peter Parker standing beside him, he felt helpless. It seemed that he had underestimated Dr. Lizard's fighting ability.
