Pictures of Vampires feeding have appeared on Facebook."
"Many people are discussing Vampires on Twitter."
"There are Vampire videos everywhere on Kuaishou, and one of them even details the history of Vampires."
...
Listening to the technical department's report, Coulson had a massive headache. Recently, more and more Vampires were causing trouble, leading many people to discover their existence. All sorts of pictures and videos were spreading everywhere online.
Ever since the advent of smartphones, information dissemination had become much faster, making it difficult even for S.H.I.E.L.D. to control everything as before.
"Damn Vampires, damn Kuaishou."
Coulson couldn't help but curse. Facebook and Twitter were manageable; they would help the technical department delete posts. But Kuaishou completely ignored them. For the sake of downloads, they even made Vampire videos trending.
It wasn't that Coulson hadn't warned Kuaishou, but the problem was that Kuaishou completely disregarded his warnings. He had once sent the technical department to attack Kuaishou's servers, but the so-called experts in the technical department were utterly defeated, almost having their own servers breached by the opponent.
After some thought, Coulson called Nick Fury and said, "Director, the Vampire situation is spreading rapidly. I'd like to request Jarvis's help."
Jarvis is Tony Stark's intelligent butler, currently the top artificial intelligence, with the best post-deletion efficiency in the world.
Nick Fury said, "Not needed. Everything remains as is."
Coulson was stunned, then asked somewhat excitedly, "Director, are you planning to..."
"I'm not planning anything, and neither should you."
Nick Fury interrupted Coulson and said, "Many small teams will be entering New York for exercises soon. Get ready."
Coulson immediately nodded: "I understand."
If Vampires wanted to break the agreement, why wouldn't humans? Nick Fury, as a seasoned control freak, had long wanted to get rid of the Vampires.
Let's wait and see who will have the last laugh in this game.
...
Half a month later, at Rebirth Building, Andrew called Howard and asked, "Has the artificial intelligence been developed yet?"
"Almost there. I want to develop an artificial intelligence that surpasses Jarvis."
Howard said. This was a common trait of the Stark Family, always striving for perfection. How did that saying go? If it's a Stark product, it must be a masterpiece.
"As soon as possible."
Andrew hung up the phone and used his magic to contact Teslak in Hell: "Has the Leech factor that can suppress the X-gene been successfully extracted?"
Teslak said, "It has been successfully extracted. We are currently researching large-scale replication."
"Very good, speed it up."
Andrew nodded with satisfaction. He hung up the phone and stretched. All his work for the day was done; he could start enjoying himself.
What did Andrew do? He made phone calls! As a boss, his biggest job is to wield the whip and drive his employees to work hard.
"Gwen has to work today, so I'll ask her out later."
As Andrew was pondering, the magic imprint he had placed on Gwen sent a signal: Gwen was in danger.
In the Osborn Group laboratory, screams and shouts rang out one after another. A three-meter-tall, entirely green, red-eyed humanoid Lizard was rampaging through the lab, with broken instruments scattered everywhere.
The large Lizard grabbed a researcher in a white coat, bit off his neck, and greedily sucked his blood. The others were so scared they almost peed themselves and frantically ran out.
Gwen was also running, pressing 911 with trembling hands to call the police. At that moment, the large Lizard threw away the researcher's corpse and kicked a table with force towards the fleeing crowd.
Everyone quickly dodged, and Gwen was pushed, falling from the balcony with her phone.
"No!"
Amidst the strong wind, Gwen screamed, filled with terror. Her scream attracted Spider-Man, who happened to be passing by, and he immediately swung over using his webs.
Just then, the sharp-eyed Spider-Man saw a figure below stomping his left foot on his right, rapidly leaping upwards, and couldn't help but exclaim, "This is unscientific."
Of course, it was unscientific. It was purely Andrew's mischievousness. He leaped all the way into the air, caught the screaming Gwen, and carried her onto the balcony, even grabbing her phone on the way.
"Andrew."
Seeing Andrew, Gwen was almost overjoyed, leaning against him and gasping for breath.
Andrew comforted her, "Don't be afraid. With me here, you won't be harmed at all."
"Mm."
Gwen hugged Andrew tightly. Only in his warm, strong embrace could she feel safe.
At this moment, Spider-Man, clinging to the opposite wall, shouted, "Dude, that move you just did was very unscientific. Stomping your left foot on your right, the two forces would... Huh, Mr. Wang!"
Andrew asked knowingly, "You know me?"
Spider-Man gave an awkward laugh, not daring to stay long, and quickly shouted, "Someone upstairs needs help! I'm going to help."
With that, Spider-Man quickly climbed up. Soon, he saw a large Lizard sucking blood, let out an angry roar, and rushed up to fight the Lizard Dr. fiercely.
Andrew watched for a few moments, then lost interest. It was a typical fight between two amateurs—both relied only on their raw talent, with virtually no combat skills.
Gwen asked curiously, "Andrew, do you know Spider-Man?"
Andrew asked, "No, he knows me. What exactly happened?"
"It's my fault."
Gwen said guiltily, "I didn't properly store the Vampire blood. Dr. Connors added it to the Lizard Serum. Later, I don't know what happened, but Dr. Connors privately injected the Lizard Serum without any prior experiments.
Then, he turned into a bloodthirsty Lizard Dr. that had lost its mind. It's all my fault."
Dr. Connors was a disabled man missing his right arm. His lifelong dream was to create a world without flaws, so he researched interspecies genetics, intending to make humans immune to diseases through the genes of other species.
For decades, Dr. Connors had failed, but after obtaining Vampire blood, he succeeded—successfully transforming himself into a blood-sucking Lizard Dr. with both arms.
"Blood-sucking Lizard Dr.?"
Andrew was a bit surprised. How did the Lizard Dr. plot twist like this?
Gwen calmed down. She recalled what had happened earlier and asked in astonishment, "Andrew, how did you jump up just now? Also, why did you arrive so coincidentally?"
Andrew smiled and said, "I sensed you were in danger and specifically came to find you. It seems I didn't sense wrong."
Gwen said, "Sense? Are you talking about telepathy? That's unscientific."
Andrew flicked Gwen's nose and said, "At this moment, you just need to be touched, my little scholar."
Gwen was a bit shy, and also a little sweet. At this moment, Spider-Man was sent flying outside by Lizard Dr. He saw Andrew and Gwen being affectionate, pouted unhappily, and used his webs to swing back into the room, resuming his fight with Lizard Dr.
