Chapter 54 The Green Goblin Who Was Born Dead
Medical Room
Norman Osborn lay on a titanium alloy hospital bed, his well-maintained fingers slightly curled up from excessive tension.
He trembled as he unbuttoned his shirt, revealing a chest covered in bluish veins and old surgical scars.
Miller stood beside Norman Osborn, placing his palm on his body and activating the power of the Horse Rune. Suddenly, a large amount of shimmering white rune power appeared in his palm, spreading along the palm lines into a spiderweb-like pattern of runes, which then covered Norman Osborn's body.
It wasn't really necessary, but Miller decided to add special effects to make Norman Osborn, the big spender, feel that it was worth the money.
"Please relax, Mr. Osborn." Miller's words had barely left his lips when he placed his right hand on Norman's chest. The power of the Horse Charm instantly penetrated the skin, weaving a shimmering white net of light into the subcutaneous tissue.
Norman's pupils suddenly contracted, and a beast-like growl escaped his throat—his blood surged wildly under the stimulation of the horse talisman's power, as if countless black centipedes were twisting and crawling in his veins.
The vital signs monitor by the bedside suddenly emitted a piercing shriek, and the heart rate reading exceeded the red alert line.
Norman's chest began to heave violently, and dark green veins appeared beneath his skin, as if a corrosive liquid had been poured on it. The next second, the hospital bed was flung three meters away with a loud crash, and the 300-kilogram titanium alloy bed frame slammed heavily onto the ground, scattering countless fragments.
Norman Osborn, his face contorted in a ferocious grimace, materialized in the smoke and dust. At that moment, Norman's body began to swell, dark green sap seeping from his charred old scars, and his five fingers curled into claws.
He roared and leaped at Miller, the air pierced by the shrill sound of his claws tearing through the air. Miller dodged to the side, the claw marks grazing his left shoulder and carving five deep furrows into the stainless steel wall.
Looking at the Green Goblin in front of him, Miller remained calm. The Green Goblin's strength lay in his intelligence and madness, and his physical abilities might not even be comparable to Miller's, who had also taken the Super Soldier Serum.
Moreover, the primary function of the Horse Talisman is to expel all external forces. Miller slightly increased the power of the Horse Talisman, and Green Goblin collapsed to the ground.
In theory, this function should have been able to eliminate the Hulk inside Dr. Bruce Banner. When injecting Dr. Bruce Banner with the Super Soldier Serum, Miller paid special attention to it, but found that the power of the Marble Talisman seemed to have no effect on the Hulk. He didn't know if it was because the power of the Marble Talisman was too low-level, or because the Hulk was born from Banner's body due to gamma radiation, and therefore not considered an external force.
Miller thought the problem was that the Horse Charm level wasn't high enough. Although Hulk's performance in the Avengers movies was at most that of a planet-level powerhouse, The Incredible Hulk still retained the setting that Hulk becomes stronger the angrier he gets. Therefore, the level 6 Horse Charm power couldn't do anything to Hulk for the time being.
Ironically, Miller had quite a few super soldier serums in his memory, but each had its own drawbacks.
The first user of the Super Soldier Serum was Red Skull. The Super Soldier Serum had obvious flaws, and Red Skull was directly disfigured as a result.
The second user of the Super Soldier Serum was Captain America, Steve Rogers. Its effect seems to be amplifying a person's inner character, making good people even better and bad people even worse. This flaw is actually quite manageable; in fact, it could even be considered an advantage for Captain America.
The third serum was developed by Tony Stark's father, Howard Stark, based on remaining data. It was intercepted and killed by Winter Soldier, sent by Hydra, just as it was about to be delivered to S.H.I.E.L.D. A side effect of this serum was that it seemed to make people irritable. In *Captain America: Civil War*, Hydra injected four soldiers with it, but the four injected soldiers were completely unresponsive. Hydra had no choice but to freeze them, and then Baron Zemo found them and shot them.
The fourth one is the super soldier serum developed by the military, which has an extremely high mortality rate. Although the survival rate is greatly improved with Miller's help, the improvement effect is relatively weak.
The fifth one was developed by a civilian scientist in "The Falcon and the Winter Soldier". It has almost no side effects, but judging from the reactions of the people who were injected with it, its effects seem to be relatively weak.
The sixth one was developed by Norman Osborn to treat a family genetic disease. Although it seemed to cure the disease, it caused a split personality, thus giving birth to the supervillain Green Goblin.
But Miller, a bigwig in the internet industry, had never received any news of a new villain emerging in New York!
In other words, Norman Osborn should have just received the serum, and he himself might not even have noticed the emergence of another personality within him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have proactively invited the officially recognized superhero Miller to treat him. So, did Green Goblin kill himself so soon after his birth?
Realizing this, Miller immediately used the power of the Horse Charm to restore the medical room to its original state and carried Norman Osborn back to his bed.
After everything was restored, Miller looked at Norman Osborn sleeping soundly in front of him and suddenly realized that something was wrong.
How come Norman Osborn is in the Marvel Cinematic Universe?
Norman Osborn only appeared in the first Spider-Man movie starring Tobey Maguire. Although there was a villain named Harry Osborn in the second Spider-Man movie, Norman didn't appear. In the Marvel movies, Spider-Man's friend changed from Harry Osborn to the chubby Ned.
Could this not be part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe? But what about the fact that Natasha and Scarlett Johansson have the exact same face outside?
Miller felt a slight headache at that moment.

After Norman Osborn regained consciousness and awoke, he noticed the changes in his body and immediately thanked Miller. He then requested that his son, Harry Osborn, also require treatment.
However, since Harry Osborne was still abroad at the time, Miller needed to come back in a few days.
Miller agreed without hesitation. After all, he was not familiar with Norman Osborn's face. Now it was up to him to see what Harry Osborn looked like.
But speaking of which, has Harry from Toby the Spider ever been abroad?
……
After the clone woke up, it immediately used the Horse Talisman to heal its injuries and restore its clothes. Then it got up and looked around at its surroundings.
The weather was clear and the air was fresh, but looking at the towering trees around him, some of which were hundreds of meters tall, he fell into deep thought: Is there such an area on Earth?
The clone couldn't help but wonder if it had been transported to another planet by the Anywhere Door. However, it was precisely the existence of the Anywhere Door that made the clone not panic at all. After all, as long as the Anywhere Door was there, going back would not be easy!
So the clone immediately summoned the Anywhere Door, wanting to return to Earth through it.
Dormammu, located in the Dark Dimension, looked at the Anywhere Door that had suddenly disappeared before him and couldn't help but feel a little surprised, but then a human-like cold smile appeared on his face.
Looking at the portal filled with dark energy, the clone frowned and tentatively tried to dispel it with a horse talisman, but found that it had little effect. He had no choice but to withdraw the portal and begin searching for the creatures of this world.
