While Marcus and Dr. Otto researched and perfected artificial sun technology, other things developed normally.
On Peter's side, he continued his daily heroics.
When Mary Jane was about to marry John, she seriously thought about her feelings and ultimately didn't go through with it. She wrote John a letter saying she wouldn't marry him.
After that, Mary Jane found Peter and expressed her heart.
Peter originally hadn't wanted a relationship with Mary Jane.
Because of his Spider-Man identity, he'd encounter many enemies.
If an enemy hurt Mary Jane, Peter would feel extremely guilty.
But now Mary Jane would give up everything to be with him.
Peter could no longer find any reason to refuse.
Finally, Peter and Mary Jane were together.
On the other side, Harry was at home, very depressed.
Now that he knew Spider-Man's real identity was Peter, he didn't know if he could go through with revenge.
Moreover, his only chance for revenge was gone.
Harry didn't know how to catch Spider-Man anymore.
Just when Harry was struggling, he suddenly heard strange laughter.
Harry approached a full-length mirror in the house.
In the mirror, Harry saw his father.
"Dad? I thought you were—"
"No. I live in your heart."
Norman in the mirror said this.
Next, Norman began accusing Harry.
"You swore to make Spider-Man pay. Now you must make him suffer!"
"But Peter is my best friend!"
"And I'm still your father!"
Norman roared!
"You're too weak! You've always been weak! Until you became independent!"
"Now you must avenge me!"
Norman's words echoed in Harry's mind like a devil's whisper.
In fact, there was no Norman in the mirror at all.
It was all Harry's hallucination.
The fact that his friend had killed his father—his enemy—caused Harry extreme mental torture.
During the long internal conflict, Harry fantasized his father's resentment that he hadn't avenged him.
Finally, unable to bear it, Harry picked up a dagger and threw it at the mirror.
CRASH!
The mirror shattered. Harry suddenly froze.
Behind the mirror was a dark secret room.
Because the room hadn't been cleaned in a long time, dust covered everything. Even spider webs were visible.
With a solemn expression, Harry slowly walked into the dark room to check the situation inside.
After living here for years, he hadn't even known there was a hidden room in the house!
After walking a few steps inside, the dark room suddenly lit up as if there were motion sensors.
At that moment, Harry saw clearly what was in the room.
A display case full of neatly arranged pumpkin bombs!
And green serum!
On the other side, an old glider and goblin mask!
Looking at everything here, Harry realized something.
However, he subconsciously denied that possibility.
How could his own father be the notorious Green Goblin?
So Harry decided to use everything here to strengthen himself, then seek revenge on Spider-Man.
A few months later, in Marcus's laboratory, Marcus and Dr. Otto were conducting miniaturization experiments on the artificial sun.
With Arc Reactor technology, they'd made rapid progress in perfecting the artificial sun.
After solving key problems, they first built a large-scale artificial sun device.
Same as the massive Arc Reactor built by Stark Enterprises.
Once they'd successfully fabricated the large-scale artificial sun device, they began trying to miniaturize it.
Like Stark, who'd based it on the large Arc Reactor and miniaturized it.
Marcus wanted to reproduce Stark's operation with the artificial sun.
Otherwise, the artificial sun would just be one large battery.
By miniaturizing it, it could be applied to more technological aspects.
With the successful Arc Reactor experiment, and Marcus also giving Dr. Otto NZT, research on miniaturizing the artificial sun went smoothly.
In just a few months, they overcame all technical difficulties.
Now was the time to create a small artificial sun.
As instruments activated one by one, step by step, the small artificial sun was successfully produced.
Otto, not far away, looked at the palm-sized artificial sun with shining eyes.
He never expected that with Marcus's support, not only would artificial sun technology be successfully perfected, but it would also be successfully miniaturized.
Any one of these technologies, if released, would be enough to cause a sensation worldwide.
Nobel Prizes would be handed out like candy!
Marcus watched all this calmly.
He wasn't Harry. First, funding and materials were completely sufficient—after all, he wasn't short of money.
Coupled with the information he'd provided and NZT's help, if Otto couldn't perfect artificial sun technology, there'd be a problem.
After admiring the small artificial sun, Otto looked at Marcus.
After hesitating a moment, Otto asked: "Boss, will you announce the artificial sun to benefit mankind?"
Glancing at Otto, Marcus shook his head.
"Dr. Otto, I won't. You should know the impact this technology would have on humans."
"This world isn't ready for its emergence yet. Once news of perfected artificial sun technology leaks, the whole world will fall into chaos!"
The artificial sun was controlled nuclear fusion—definitely black technology.
Once announced, the world would fall into chaos.
Hearing what Marcus said, Otto nodded helplessly.
He also knew the impact of artificial sun technology.
Although he'd proposed and started researching this technology, without Marcus's help, he probably couldn't have successfully researched it.
Now, if Marcus wouldn't announce it, he had nothing to do about it.
Although it would benefit mankind, some people who obtained this technology wouldn't use it for mankind's benefit.
Just like Osborn Enterprises—Harry had invested in Otto's artificial sun research to make money from it, not for mankind's benefit.
Dr. Otto's experiment had failed, and Osborn was already on the verge of bankruptcy.
If Harry hadn't stepped out to take charge over these months and saved things a little, Osborn Enterprises would really be done for.
That day, the artificial intelligence Skynet suddenly sent Marcus a video.
In Earth's outer space, a fireball suddenly appeared.
The fireball finally fell into a park in New York City.
Marcus's eyes narrowed.
"Venom!"
To monitor Venom's arrival, Marcus had launched many satellites into the sky.
Many places in New York City also had high-definition surveillance cameras deployed.
Seeing this meteorite from outer space appear, Marcus immediately flew toward the location Skynet provided.
