Ch. 98 Uncontrolled Hulk
🕑 Added 2023-10-22 16:01:01 +0000 UTCBesides offering General Ross enough benefits to make him willingly give up, having him willingly abandon the pursuit was also a good option.
However, Russell hadn't figured out the specifics of how to do it yet.
Time flowed slowly.
After a heated conversation, Banner finally decided to directly conduct unverified human experiments on himself.
From a scientific standpoint, Banner's decision wasn't particularly wise.
But then again, if Banner had strictly followed the experimental procedure, he wouldn't have ended up like this in the first place.
He was in this situation now because he had been overconfident back then and had conducted gamma energy experiments on himself without complete verification.
And thus, the Hulk was born!
Back in the day, Banner had acted impulsively.
Now, he was planning to be impulsive a second time.
Dr. Sterns didn't try to stop Banner's idea at all.
If Banner wasn't willing, just to satisfy his curiosity, Dr. Sterns might even encourage him to proceed with the human experiment.
Through the sun-like glasses connected to the bio-spider, Russell observed everything happening in the laboratory.
Just like Dr. Sterns, he didn't prevent Banner's intentions.
If he didn't let Banner try it once, he wouldn't give up.
Only by experiencing it himself could Banner truly understand that he couldn't just shake off the Hulk like a jacket.
Banner took off his shirt and shoes, wearing only shorts as he lay on the experimental bed.
Betty stood beside him, securing the restraints around his limbs and waist.
As for Dr. Sterns, he was currently operating various instruments in the laboratory.
With all preparations complete, Dr. Sterns said to Banner, "The blood separator will mix the antidote with your blood. But for the antidote to take effect, you need to fully transform."
"Relax!"
Standing beside the bed, Betty held Banner's left hand gently and said softly.
"Are you ready?"
Dr. Sterns placed something in Banner's mouth to prevent him from accidentally biting his own tongue in the coming struggle.
Seeing Banner nod firmly, Dr. Sterns turned to Betty beside him and said, "You better not touch him."
As Dr. Sterns spoke, he picked up a special brain electroshock device.
Zzzt~
Blue and white currents flickered at both ends of the brain electroshock device.
Under Betty's gaze, Dr. Sterns brought the special brain electroshock device close to Banner's temple.
Without any hesitation, Dr. Sterns placed the brain electroshock device on Banner's temple, subjecting him to an electric shock he had never experienced before.
"Argh!"
Banner immediately became wracked with intense pain.
After completing the initial electrification, Dr. Sterns promptly removed the electroshock device.
Struggling in agony, Banner's eyes turned green in an instant.
Meanwhile, his blood vessels began to swell, and a strange green color replaced his original skin tone.
"Argh, Argh!"
Banner let out a cry of pain.
As his skin gradually turned green, his body started rapidly growing at a visibly noticeable speed.
Watching Banner's current transformation, both Dr. Sterns and Betty involuntarily took a step back.
Time passed slowly, and Banner's cries continued.
Although Russell wasn't in the laboratory, he observed everything happening now through the bio-spider.
Seeing the somewhat nauseating transformation process that Banner was undergoing, he felt that it had been a wise choice not to replicate Banner's superpowers.
Of course, under normal circumstances, Banner's transformation would be a bit more visually appealing and much less painful.
Banner's body grew larger, and the experimental table began to buckle under his weight.
As his body expanded, Banner's struggles grew stronger.
The restraints binding his limbs showed signs of being torn free.
Dr. Sterns looked on in disbelief, completely stunned by the scene before him.
At this moment, Betty was the first to react. She shouted at Dr. Sterns, "Quick, administer the antidote!"
After addressing Dr. Sterns, Betty climbed onto Banner's body, sitting on him and repeatedly saying, "Look at me, Banner! Look at me, look into my eyes..."
Whether Banner was still looking at Betty, Russell wasn't sure.
However, seeing the chaotic scene in the laboratory, he furrowed his brow slightly.
Three madmen!
No, to be precise, three mad scientists!
They were all professionals in their field, yet their actions now were anything but professional.
While he was criticizing the current actions of Banner and the others and planning to continue being a spectator, something unexpected happened.
With Betty still perched on his body, the now-giant Banner seemed to calm down for a few seconds.
But then, he made a move that surprised both Russell and Betty.
Banner suddenly shouted, and with a powerful thrust of his right hand, he broke free from the restraints on his right side.
Before Betty could react, Banner, or rather, the Hulk's right hand came in front of her and pushed her aside.
For the Hulk, his effort wasn't much.
But for Betty, who was just a regular person, the Hulk's push was akin to being hit by a speeding car.
Crash!
Without any suspense, Betty was sent flying, crashing into a pile of instruments and bottles before slamming heavily into the wall.
Thud!
The tremendous impact caused Betty to involuntarily cough up a mouthful of blood.
Subsequently, she fell painfully to the floor, gazing at the struggling Hulk on the experimental table with a complex expression.
This...
Seeing this scene, Russell couldn't help but take a sharp breath.
He hadn't expected this development.
He had thought that the situation would develop as he remembered, but reality had proven him wrong at the conclusion.
After pushing Betty away, the Hulk hadn't exerted much force. Nevertheless, he managed to break free from all restraints on him.
As he struggled free, the overwhelmed experimental table crashed to the ground.
Following his liberation, the Hulk extended both arms and let out a roar that sounded like a wild beast.
"Hey, big guy, calm down!"
Russell, now transformed into a superhero serum, rushed to the laboratory. He addressed the roaring Hulk.
Upon hearing his voice, the Hulk abruptly turned around, giving Russell a menacing look.
Just when Russell thought the Hulk would charge at him in a fit of anger, the Hulk did something unexpected yet again.
Upon recognizing that the speaker was Russell, the person who had tossed him around last time, the Hulk didn't hesitate. He forcefully propelled himself with his legs, bursting through the wall like a projectile and disappearing from Russell's sight.
Uh...
Had this guy completely lost control?
Witnessing the scene where the Hulk pushed Betty aside, Russell had a strong intuition that the Hulk had indeed lost control.
If the Hulk hadn't lost control, he wouldn't have harmed Betty like that.
But now, upon seeing Russell, the Hulk didn't waste any time. He turned and fled without a second thought. It certainly didn't look like the behavior of someone who had lost control.
In a state of losing control, the Hulk wouldn't turn and run like this.
