Chapter 1639 The Lizard Man’s Plan
In the long history of biological evolution on Earth, lizards, as an extremely unique and diverse group in the class Reptiles, have always attracted the attention of countless biologists.

Based on existing classification studies and different data sources, there are certain differences in the statistics of global lizard species.

According to mainstream classification standards, the narrow order Lacertilia contains approximately 3000 species. This data is widely cited by many authoritative encyclopedias and popular science content, and its source is clearly marked as the taxonomic standard.

However, if a broader statistical method is used, expanding the scope to include more branches under the order Squamata, such as geckos, monitors and other groups, the number of known lizard species exceeds 4000, and there are even individual reports that there are about 6000 or 7000 species in existence.

This difference mainly stems from the different taxonomic levels. 3000 species usually only refer to the narrow order of Lizards, while higher data may include transitional groups such as the family of Snakes.

In addition, with the continuous deepening of scientific research, the discovery of new species and the revision of classification are also ongoing. For example, there are 27 genera and 230-277 species in the family Lacertidae, and new species are constantly being recorded in groups such as the Varanidae.

At a time when technology and biological research are highly developed, Osborn Industries, an influential company in the field of biotechnology, once secretly launched a jaw-dropping plan.

Relying on their strong scientific research capabilities and resources, they have collected live lizard specimens from around the world, with the number reaching as high as 5000 species.

These lizards come from all over the world, from the vast tropical rainforests to the arid and hot deserts, from the deep and mysterious ocean islands to the tops of remote mountains. Each lizard carries unique genetic information and is a precious manifestation of the biodiversity on Earth.

However, Professor Connors' research was not all smooth sailing.

Among the numerous lizard samples, he had to eliminate some because either their gene sequences were too similar and could not provide new breakthroughs for research; or because of their special living habits, they could not survive for a long time in the laboratory environment.

The remaining lizard samples became a valuable resource for Professor Connors' gene transplantation project.

Now these living samples have been taken away by Professor Connors, who has transformed into Dr. Lizard, in order to study the new lizard serum.

Because of the differences in genes and body shape of each organism, the parameters in the attenuation rate formula need to be adjusted when making serum.

Having experienced the power of super lizards, Dr. Lizard became more obsessed with synthesizing the genes of lizards. He planned to collect all the lizard gene samples in the world and create the most powerful "Ultimate Lizard Serum". As for his subordinates, they were injected with "Advanced Synthetic Lizard Serum", "Super Synthetic Lizard Serum" and so on to enhance their strength.

The lizard serum he originally created was considered garbage by him, and the lizardmen he created were also garbage.

So Tony probably won't be able to find Dr. Lizard quickly.

He chose to lie dormant.

Several months passed quietly, and the originally tense atmosphere seemed to gradually dissipate as the days went by.

Tony Stark, the genius inventor who is always busy saving the world, finally has a moment to breathe after the intense tracking and investigation of the last Lizard Man incident.

As for Osborn Industries, after the incident was initially settled, it used its huge influence and resources to successfully keep most of the information in the dark, leaving the outside world with very little knowledge of the truth behind the attack.

After weighing various intelligence and resources, SHIELD temporarily shifted its attention to other more pressing threats.

However, undercurrents often surge beneath the surface of calm. Just when everyone thought that the Lizardman incident was a thing of the past, a more terrifying existence quietly surfaced.

Dr. Lizard shows up.

He led his lizard men who were injected with more powerful lizard serum to break into the New York Veterans Hospital of Osborn Industries. The New York Veterans Hospital was an excellent "recruitment pool" for Dr. Lizard.

There are a large number of disabled soldiers here who are physically strong and have received military training.

Although they have physical disabilities, their fighting spirit and physical fitness should not be underestimated.

After Dr. Lizard and his lizard-men broke into the hospital, a bloody transformation operation quickly unfolded.

After the incident, Osborn Industries used its vast resources and influence to quickly block the news and announced that it was just an ordinary accident.

The hospital was cleaned up and resumed its normal operations. The New York Veterans Affairs Hospital is still operating normally, treating a large number of soldiers injured and disabled in the war.

Because the information was strictly blocked, these soldiers knew nothing about the fact that Osborn Industries had used them as guinea pigs for experiments.

In their eyes, the lizard men who suddenly appeared were nothing more than a group of crazy monsters who broke into the hospital just to prey on humans.

Dr. Lizard and his men broke into the hospital under the cover of night like ghosts.

They quickly took control of all entrances and exits of the hospital and subdued the defenseless disabled soldiers one by one.

They then began injecting these soldiers with advanced synthetic lizard serum.

The effect of this serum was far more powerful and lasting than previous versions. After the injection, the soldiers' bodies began to undergo drastic changes, their muscles swelled, their bones deformed, their skin gradually covered with scales, and their eyes became cold and cruel.

Dr. Lizard himself was injected with an even more powerful super lizard serum.

This serum not only brought about earth-shaking changes in his body, but also completely altered his genetic sequence.

He can no longer transform back into a human being and can only exist forever in this half-human, half-lizard form.

But for him, this is not important. He has only one crazy wish in his heart - to turn all the humans in the world into lizard people and create a brand new world that belongs only to lizard people.

In order to realize this wish, Dr. Lizard and his men began to actively prepare. They obtained a large amount of arms through the black market and arms dealers.

All of these weapons are heavy weapons, including Gatling machine guns, M60 general-purpose machine guns, Browning heavy machine guns, and even continuous-fire Barrett anti-material sniper rifles.

Coupled with the heavy bulletproof vests they obtained from various channels, it can be said that every Lizardman is armed to the teeth.

The appearance of hundreds of Lizardmen quickly attracted the attention of Tony Stark.

Although Tony himself let his guard down during the months of peaceful life, his intelligent assistant Jarvis remained on high alert.
