Chapter 9: Chapter 9: New Skill
"I would watch your mouth. Mutant," Harry's words caused various reactions from the group as they registered his words. The angriest was, no doubt, Scott.
Logan groaned as he watched the kid with narrowed eyes. He won't blame the kid for his act. He can see that the word mother makes him angry. Besides, Logan smirked as he looked at the singed hair on Scott's face.
"You little bitch!" Scott's hand lifted towards his glasses, but before he could lift his glasses. Harry was already on him. His fist was clenched and surrounded by electricity.
Boom!
A shockwave travelled around the room as Harry's fist stopped an inch from Scott's face. The shockwave overturned chairs and tables while causing the windows to crack.
The floor under Scott and Harry cracked and turned dark as the electricity from Harry travelled down to the floor. The telekinetic hold on Harry's hand weakened.
"Argh!" Jean screamed as the electricity on the floor shot up onto her legs. She turned numb and dropped to the ground while Harry jumped back.
"Get out!" Harry said as he looked at the X-Men. Xavier sighed as he turned around. Scott huffed and puffed like a spoiled child as he looked at Harry.
Logan turned to walk away and followed Xavier from the building. Storm pushed Scott towards the exit with an apologetic look on her face. This was not how she planned the meeting to go.
Beast nodded at Harry as he turned to leave. He was curious about Harry's mutant abilities. But it does not seem like the kid would tell him kindly if he asked right now.
Jean looked up from the ground. She was the only one affected by the electricity as much since the others were stronger physically. Xavier was in a wheelchair.
"Jean! What are you doing? Hurry up!" Scott's voice jolted Jean out of her mind as she stood up weakly. She shot a sorry look at Harry as she turned to walk away.
As they left the place. Harry turned around and pressed the elevator button leading to his bunker. Once he was done there. Harry called Peter down from his office.
Ding!
The elevator door opened, and Peter entered the bunker. Harry waited patiently while thinking about his next steps. Harry had already found out about Connors.
"What the hell is with this guy... This ain't no Lizard. This is Godzilla," Harry muttered as he looked at the picture in his hand. It was a Lizard jumping from buildings and diving into the ocean.
"Yeah. I hacked the security camera and found out that Connors used a drop of my blood to inject himself with a serum," Peter said with a frown as he looked at the picture.
"That serum is dangerous. It gives the injected human Lizard habits. Meaning, you get the abilities, but you also get the mind of a Lizard," Peter said.
"Well, as long as he does not cause trouble. I won't care. On the other hand, how is the training equipment going?" Harry asked with excitement as he looked at Peter.
His strength is absurd, to say the least. It might even be higher than 100 Tons. Harry needs equipment that is heavy enough to train his body and get stronger.
"The metal plates have been put under heavy gravity simulations and have been condensed and then condensed even more. The weight of a single plate of 100 tons!" Peter said.
Peter walked into the fixed room. The three spiders have destroyed it after waking up. In the middle of the room was a gym. Replacing the scientist stuff was a gym.
On the floor was a single plate ranging from 25 Tons to 100 Tons. Harry leaned down and took the lightest into his hand. With a groan, he picked it up and placed it on the bar.
Going to the other side. Harry placed another 25 Tons onto the bar and then lay down on the bench. Letting out a huff, Harry lifted the bar, and his arms shook.
His muscles contracted, and Harry could feel his body working as his arms heated up. Lowering the bar, Harry then pushed it up with a puff of struggle.
1.
2.
3.
To 100. Harry could not lift the bar anymore after this. His muscles were screaming in pain and unwillingness. His chest was heavy, and the bar rested on the rest as he slid out under the bar.
[Ding!]
[New Skill gained!]
[Training I: Increases the effect of training by 25%.]
Harry raised an eyebrow, but he was not complaining as he wiped his forehead with sweat. Turning to Peter, who was watching a computer with his vitals.
"What does it say?" Harry asked as he walked beside Peter. Peter was currently tracking how his body worked and how the workout would affect his body.
"This, this is amazing! Your strength grew by a staggering 1.5% in a mere 4 minutes!" Harry said as he spun around to look at Harry. Hearing Peter's voice, Harry raised his eyebrow.
'So if I do that again with my new skill. That percentage would be 1.925%,' Harry thought with a smirk as he clenched his fist. He still has two skill points.
"Peter. I will not be going to school for a week. I will be here, training," Harry said to Peter as they walked towards the bunker elevator. Getting inside it. The two went up.
"Peter, in the meanwhile. Make sure to track the Lizard. I need to know if he is coming back to the city. With his power, he could cause city-wide destruction," Harry said with a troubled expression.
If the Lizard changed so much in this world... Then what about the rest of Spider-Man's enemies? Just thinking about it made Harry shiver at the thought of the new Green Goblin.
Oh, wait... That's his dad...
"Don't worry. I managed to place a tracker on his body the moment he destroyed Oscorp Tower. Remember, I was there that day," Peter said as he stepped out of the elevator.
"My man. Now go, say hi to Aunt May and Uncle Ben for me," Harry said as he tapped Peter's shoulder. The elevator door closed, and Peter turned around as he walked out of the FFF tower.
His hand reached into his scientific robe pocket, and a vial of green slime rested in his palm. Peter's face twisted in hesitation and a sense of betrayal as he looked down at the floor.
"No... Not yet," Peter muttered as he walked off with narrowed eyes. He can't inject the serum into himself just because he also wants super strength.
He is not going to do it...
