The Super God Mechanic in American Manga

Chapter 90 Otto's Secret

When Peter first heard Leo's proposal, he really didn't want to leave the laboratory where he had stayed for a long time.

Moreover, he still subconsciously disliked the blind lawyer in the office next to the Eyre building.

Therefore, for Leo's suggestion, Peter refused at first, and even had thoughts like "How can Mr. Erwin be so embarrassing on purpose"!

But after he thought about it carefully, and tried to look at this issue from Leo's standpoint, he suddenly discovered that Li Ao was really generous!

Peter felt that if Leo really wanted to embarrass others, he could completely ignore his and Otto's lives.

Li Ao can definitely independently develop a mechanical prosthesis, and then sell it directly for money, without having to pay him and Otto's salary and dividends.

After such an analysis, Peter firmly believed that Li Ao was definitely not the kind of person who would be ungrateful for profit.

In an instant, Li Ao's personality became stronger in Peter's heart.

But how did Peter know that if Peter's mission hadn't played an absolutely motivating role, it would be impossible for Leo to tinker with mechanical prosthetics by himself.

There are many ways to make money in his mind, and he can even make a lot of money selling "miniature high-compression batteries", so there is no need to make money from mechanical prosthetics.

Li Ao worked so hard to contribute both money and energy, isn't it just for the sake of getting both people and wealth? !

Peter thought he had figured out the whole truth of the matter, and he was fooled by Leo voluntarily.

"Mr. Erwin, I have thought it over just now, and I am willing to support your proposal to work for Erwin Technology."

Peter turned his head to look at Otto again and said,

"I think, with such a good opportunity, Dr. Octavius, you will definitely be willing to go to ElTech with me.

Doctor, we can continue our research work together again.And this time, the research progress must be much faster than the previous research, and it will definitely be much smoother. "

In Peter's perception, Otto has always had the same goal as him, which is to successfully manufacture mechanical prosthetics to benefit disabled people all over the world.

Now that the goal of the two is hopeful, Otto has no reason to refuse to work for El Technology.

However, to Peter's surprise, Otto actually refused.

"Peter, go to ElTech by yourself, your goal is there. Moreover, you will have a much better future there than with me.

Having spent decades at NYU, the campus area and labs have been like home to me, and I have old friends who are like family.

I'm old and don't want to leave here.

Now I have another $250 million from selling 'micro-nuclear reactor' technology, and I don't need to continue to invest in the failed 'nerve arm' project.

This money is enough for me to live comfortably and even luxuriously for the rest of my life.

I just want to teach quietly at New York University and spend the rest of my life in peace.

So, Peter, you can go at ease and leave me alone. "

Otto smiled kindly, his eyes full of longing for the future.

"Dr. Octavius, I really envy your future life.

In fact, I have always expected this kind of life.Wake up every morning and have a meal with your loved ones.In the evening, drink some wine with friends and chat, isn't life beautiful?
Hey, but life is often involuntary, like me, even a family member and old friend from the past are gone! "

Bucky, an outsider next to him, doesn't understand the truth of the matter at all. At this time, he even yearns for and envies Otto's better life in the future.

But Leo will not believe that Otto will have a good life in the future. There is only one reason, and that is "the law that Dr. Octopus must be blackened"!
Not only Leo, but even Peter didn't believe Otto's words.

"Dr. Octavius, there's no way you'd say that. It's not you."

Peter shook his head again and again, staring at Otto with serious and scrutinizing eyes in doubt,
"Do you still remember the first time the 'nerve arm' successfully moved half a year ago, you drank happily until you got drunk, and what you said after getting drunk?

You may not remember it, but I remember it clearly.

Yes, you really like NYU's open campus, but you don't like the lab at all.

When you were drunk, you said that when you succeed in your project and apply for funding, you must change to a bigger and brighter laboratory.

Moreover, you also said at the time that many teachers at New York University are chasing fame and fortune, which makes you very unhappy. "

Because Peter was worried about Otto, he became more and more excited, stood up and said loudly:
"Home? Relatives? Doctor, what are you talking about?!
What's the matter with you, Dr. Octavius?Why are you making up a reason to say no to El Tech? ?What are you hiding from me? ? ? "

There was a sudden silence in the laboratory, and the atmosphere was a little tense.

The outsider Bucky managed to say something, but at this moment he realized that he had made a mistake, and quickly and quietly lowered his head to play poker.

Although Li Ao could guess that Otto was not telling the truth, he did not expect that Otto would be exposed by Peter on the spot.

In fact, he also really wanted to know why Otto refused to work in El Technology Company and why he lied, so Leo didn't come forward to smooth things over, but chose to sit quietly and eat melons.

After a long time, Otto sighed and said:
"Peter, I don't want to go to Eltech, I don't want to leave the lab, just because I want to stay here and continue working on 'intracranial neural signal' sensing technology."

Otto paused for a moment, trying to raise his hands to rub his face, but tried a few times without success, so he put it down helplessly.

Otto sighed again, and went on:

"Peter, I'm sorry, I lied to you. My original intention of researching the 'Neural Arm' was not as high-sounding as I told you.

In fact, the ultimate goal of my research on the 'neural arm' is for myself. "

Peter couldn't understand what Otto said, and asked suspiciously:

"Dr. Octavius, what do you mean? You have both hands and feet, what do you want a 'nerve arm' for?!"

"Hmph! Well..."

Otto raised his palms up, stared at his own hands and said,

"They're not good, or they're almost gone, don't you notice? I couldn't even rub my face just now."

Peter was even more puzzled, and he asked:
"Doctor, what happened? Why am I getting more and more confused the more I listen?"

"I have a problem with my body and the doctor said it was called 'degenerative neurological syndrome' and he said there was no cure for it.

And one of the main reasons for my illness is that I was slightly exposed to nuclear radiation when I was solving the radiation problem of the miniature nuclear reactor.Another main reason may be that I was exposed to toxic substances for too long when I was doing research.

It's because I was too careless when I was young, and I was too reckless in doing things. "

Otto shook his head and said helplessly,

"But the strange thing is that this symptom only affects the muscles, my mind is still working normally, but I can't command the body freely, and it will become more and more serious in the future.

Therefore, I invented this set of 'intracranial nerve signal sensing technology', hoping that after my muscles fail, I can still live independently with it.

Sorry, Peter, I lied to you.

You go, you don't have to worry about me anymore, start your own new life, your future doesn't need to be implicated by me, then I will feel guilty! "
