Chapter 200 Otto's Past
"The mission went very smoothly. We'll temporarily detain Doctor Octopus in the temporary cell at the bottom of Avengers Tower until the Avengers return, then transfer him to the Raft prison."
Coulson watched as the submarine surfaced, and Spider-Man, Ward, and Doctor Octopus aboard with two test tubes containing the symbiote. They then proceeded with the deployment. Looking at the two containers Ward presented, Coulson frowned: "I recall the report mentioning that the US military should still have four symbiote containers."
"Yes, sir, but we only have three." Ward said, putting down two jars, and added with a hint of helplessness, "Otto said he lost one."
"Lost one? How did you lose it?"
Coulson asked, puzzled. Ward shrugged helplessly: "He said that after he discovered that Spider-Man could perfectly coexist with the symbiote, he began to guess that the symbiote was a highly intelligent being that could cooperate and communicate. So he communicated with it and let it attach itself to him."
"Then?"
"Then they ran away." Ward shrugged helplessly. Coulson was speechless as well. After Spider-Man waved at them, he tied Doctor Octopus, who had removed all four tentacles, with his web, and had Venom bind the four mechanical tentacles to his back. Then he carried the person away.
Regarding the symbiotes, the two sides have reached a temporary agreement that S.H.I.E.L.D. can conduct preliminary research and analysis while dealing with the troublesome US military. Once a solution to the symbiote crisis is found, these symbiotes will be handed over to the Avengers.
But all of this is based on the premise that S.H.I.E.L.D. obtained all four symbiotes. Now they only have three, and there is no fourth. So even if they hand over the three symbiotes they have now, the Avengers will not believe that S.H.I.E.L.D. did not obtain the fourth symbiote. They will only think that S.H.I.E.L.D. is keeping it for themselves.
There's nothing we can do about it; that's just how S.H.I.E.L.D.'s reputation is
Coulson sighed helplessly.
"We can only hope that... the Avengers believe Otto Octavia's account and that S.H.I.E.L.D. will indeed be unable to capture the symbiote afterward."
Meanwhile, the real Avengers are carrying their lifelong enemy on their journey.
"So, why did you work for Kingpin, create Scorpion, help Mysterio, and why did you help the US military conduct illegal human experiments, Doctor?"
"You wouldn't understand me, Spider-Man, and it's pointless to tell you."
"Ah, let me guess, it's because of Norman Osborn, isn't it?"
Otto, carried on Spider-Man's shoulder, looked at Peter with considerable surprise: "You know?"
"No, I don't really know. But I don't know if it's bad luck or fate, but a lot of the enemies I've encountered can be linked to Osborn. I even met an old man whose patent was stolen by Norman, so I guess the scientist who was looking for investors everywhere and had a tragic fate might have been killed by Norman Osborn."
Otto chuckled twice. "Look at you, Norman, even Spider-Man knows your infamous reputation. You think you've succeeded? You think you're a New York tycoon, a successful businessman?"
But everyone knows you're just a thief.
"Alright, Doctor, I'd love to hear your story from the past, but unfortunately, I can't right now. Let's find a quiet place to talk about it."
The safe place Peter mentioned was naturally the temporary prison beneath Avengers Tower where Thriller and Mysterio had been held. Hank's Ultron robots were also in charge there. These still somewhat clumsy robots were able to carry out some instructions fairly well, such as taking care of the quadriplegic Doctor Octopus.
Besides that, Doctor Octopus would basically be bedridden and unable to move.
"So, let's talk about Norman now." Peter said, shrugging. The Vulture incident made him realize that although Norman had given him full access to Osborn Technologies, it didn't mean he could actually see everything Osborn Technologies was doing. Norman undoubtedly wanted Peter Parker to see an Osborn Technologies that was incredibly successful and glorious, but Peter knew that wasn't the case.
Even Harry knew what a awful guy his father was.
"You seem to know Norman Osborn's character very well. Is there anything else you'd like to know?"
"Um, your story? You know, looking at all those things on your back, you must have a lot of stories to tell."
"Oh, that's a story from a long time ago..."
It's not actually that far.
The beginning of the story is very similar to that of the Marvel Spider-Man series. Otto Octavia and Norman Osborn are college classmates and like-minded friends. They vow to change the world with technology, so they start planning their business in college and eventually create one of the best emerging technology industries at the end of the last century - Otto Technology.
The latest novel is first published here!
The word "Osborne" means not only Osborne, but also Octavia.
But then everything changed. Norman became greedy and arrogant. His technological inspiration began to wane, while he resorted to more and more unscrupulous ways to make money. The duo gradually became a combination of Edison and Tesla. Osborn greedily attributed everything to himself, ignoring Otto's contributions.
All of this worsened after Otto was diagnosed with ALS and gradually became paralyzed, and after Norman's wife Emily died in a car accident.
"Finally, for my own sake, I wanted to design a neural implant to help me regain my ability to walk and move. The artificial spine of the scorpion was the prototype I designed back then." Otto said the end of this story of brothers turning against each other: "In the end, it all became very simple. In order to be able to continue my experiments, I designed this mechanical claw to help me do the work, and I modified my voice so that I could continue to make sounds."
"But just when the experiment was getting on track, Norman came out and ruined everything. He was convinced that my experiment could not succeed, so he cut off the power at the most critical moment. As a result, the entire laboratory suffered a huge accident, which connected me and my tentacles together through neural links."
At this point, Otto demonstrated his special ability to manipulate the tentacles even after they were removed. Peter clapped and then sighed. He didn't completely believe Otto's claims; these things still needed to be verified.
In short, Otto Octavia has been arrested and is no longer a threat.
