With Betty by his side, Banner finally found the Mr. Blue he had long admired.
As a biology PhD, Mr. Blue also had his own laboratory, located in Harlem, New York.
Watching Mr. Blue marvel endlessly at his bizarre experiences and talk nonstop, Banner stayed silent for a long time, 'If it were you, you probably wouldn't be this excited.'
Combining the experimental data Banner brought with him, Mr. Blue stated that he had already found a way to suppress the Hulk.
Banner said, "Then hurry up already!"
Mr. Blue injected a tank of purple liquid into the operating console, had Banner lie down on the experiment table, and secured his body.
To ensure the effectiveness of the antidote, Mr. Blue planned to give Banner some stimulation, electric shock therapy, internet addiction cure style.
The intense stimulation instantly swept through Banner's entire body. His heart rate skyrocketed, and Hulk's power stirred restlessly within him, as if it could burst out at any moment.
Banner's skin gradually turned dark green, his bones crackled loudly, looking as though they were about to fall apart.
At this critical moment, Betty bravely climbed onto Hulk's massive body, awakening a trace of reason within him.
Her action won Mr. Blue the precious opportunity to inject the antidote.
As the purple liquid flowed in, Hulk gradually calmed down until he lost consciousness, and his body slowly returned to Banner's form.
The experiment succeeded.
However, Mr. Blue spoke frankly, saying he could not guarantee whether Hulk had been permanently erased or merely temporarily suppressed.
Just in case, he secretly copied a large number of Banner's blood samples, planning to continue his research.
What he did not know was what kind of crisis this action would bring to the world.
Just as Banner and Mr. Blue were arguing about immediately destroying these samples, the military had already surrounded them heavily.
Snipers received the order to fire, and from a distance precisely injected tranquilizer into Banner's body.
Blonsky took the opportunity to rush into the lab, grabbed Banner, and demanded, "Where is he?"
Slap! Slap!
Several slaps still failed to make Hulk appear, leaving Blonsky extremely frustrated.
Time and again, even in his dreams, he imagined fighting Hulk hundreds more times until defeating him. Yet now the person was right in front of him, but not the one he wanted to see, driving Blonsky nearly insane.
Soon Banner was taken away by the military, leaving Mr. Blue alone to face questioning from military scientists.
At this moment, Blonsky knocked the scientists unconscious from behind.
His goal was not to save Mr. Blue, but to gain power like Hulk's.
The scene in Mr. Blue's laboratory sparked a glimmer of hope in him, 'Maybe I can become even stronger!'
Blonsky pointed a gun at Mr. Blue's head, "You can suppress him, so you can definitely create him."
Blonsky knew that even though he had been enhanced by the serum, relying on his own strength alone was still not enough to challenge Hulk.
"I want what you extracted from Banner."
"Oh? Looks like you injected something too?"
Mr. Blue believed that Banner's mutation was a gift from nature. He wanted to continue this research, and the man before him seemed to share the same thinking.
Thus, Blonsky and Mr. Blue hit it off and decided to once again use gamma radiation to inject Banner's blood into Blonsky's body.
Sure enough, under massive gamma radiation exposure, Blonsky's body rapidly expanded, becoming horrifyingly monstrous.
Abomination was born.
📍 Abomination
Seeing Abomination's violent and evil aura, Mr. Blue realized something was wrong and tried to stop him, "I can cure you!"
But what he received was a casual swipe from Abomination.
The immense force sent Mr. Blue crashing into the wall and collapsing to the ground, and at that moment, a drop of Hulk's blood sample fell into Mr. Blue's wound.
Not to mention that Mr. Blue's head was infected by Banner's blood and underwent mutation, completely changing his fate.
Blonsky, having gained terrifying power, transformed into Abomination and went on a rampage through the streets of Harlem.
"HAHA! THIS IS THE POWER I WANTED!"
The military had never seen such a newly emerged monster. In order to protect civilians, they launched an attack.
But rockets were like toys in his hands, completely ineffective.
"GIVE ME A STRONGER OPPONENT!"
Abomination shouted while slaughtering soldiers and civilians alike.
———
At this moment, Corin was sitting in a corner of General Ross's command aircraft, watching Banner get successfully captured by the military. He had thought it would not be his turn to act, but out of nowhere another giant appeared, Abomination, giving General Ross a massive headache.
'No rush! No rush! Chasing after business isn't how deals are made.'
Corin gave up the idea of soliciting work, because every time he had proactively tried to drum up business before, the results had never satisfied him.
So he decided to keep watching for now.
At this moment, General Ross felt like countless alpacas were stampeding through his mind.
He had not expected that after successfully capturing Banner, another monster would appear.
Having once commanded troops against Hulk, General Ross knew all too well that the military was no match for such monsters.
What's more, this was happening in the streets of New York. If tens of thousands of innocent civilians were endangered due to a mistake in his decision-making, then his career as a general would be over.
Unconsciously, his gaze shifted toward Cockroach behind him.
That damned guy did not react at all, as if he did not care in the slightest about innocent civilians crying out in agony under the monster's rampage.
He still owed him a 200 million commission.
Just as General Ross was about to open his mouth to ask Corin to take action, Banner, who had been awake for quite some time, spoke up, "Let me try."
Banner could not bear to watch so many innocent people die at the hands of a brutal monster. It seemed that the Hulk he became might be able to stop the destruction.
After an intense internal struggle, Banner felt for the first time that the Hulk within him might not be so unacceptable.
But Betty grabbed him. She knew Banner had just been injected with the antidote. Whether Hulk could awaken again was an unknown, and charging in now was no different from throwing his life away.
Yet Banner believed that besides himself, no one else could solve the problem at hand.
Resolutely, he kissed Betty goodbye and leapt out of the aircraft hatch.
As Banner fell rapidly, he suddenly opened his eyes. His body showed no changes at all, making him feel something was wrong, "Oh, shit!"
That's right, he was about to be smashed to death.
Just when everyone thought Banner was doomed, a massive fist suddenly burst out from underground, followed by Hulk erupting from the ground.
The near-death stimulus successfully awakened Hulk's consciousness, saving Banner's life.
Abomination also sensed Hulk's presence and charged toward him at full speed, determined to settle old scores.
The two giants leapt into the air almost simultaneously and engaged in a fierce battle.
However, due to the serum's suppression, Hulk's strength was greatly reduced. In just one exchange, he was flung away by Abomination.
Even when Hulk launched a counterattack, Abomination easily tanked it and kicked Hulk flying.
Clearly, Hulk had fallen into a passive beating situation.
The antidote injected earlier seemed to have a much stronger effect on Hulk's strength than expected.
Watching Hulk fight stubbornly on the surveillance screen, tears of pain streamed down Betty's face.
But General Ross was not thinking about that.
He had originally thought that once Banner successfully transformed, he could deal with the new monster, having personally experienced that abnormal level of strength before.
But seeing Abomination, whose power was clearly greater than Hulk's, years of combat command experience told him that now was not the time to hold back any cards.
If one Hulk was not enough, what about adding Cockroach?
General Ross finally turned his attention squarely to Corin. At this moment, Corin was already half-asleep, as if the chaos outside had nothing to do with him.
"Hey, Mr. Cockroach, do you remember our agreement about the commission?"
Corin snapped back to his senses and saw General Ross looking at him seriously.
'Did he just say something to me?'
That's right, Corin really had fallen asleep just now.
Seeing Corin's confused look, General Ross spoke again, "Mr. Cockroach, it's your turn to take the stage."
