"Who are you?"
"I am the one who can give you power." Lizard Devil stretched out his hand, placing two serums in front of the robber who had harmed many people, then let out a devil-like sound.
"Choose, either be caught and live a worthless life in prison, or become a monster and go wild!"
"…"
As the blonde man picked up the two serums, Lizard Devil knew his answer.
The blonde man, with a look of madness, injected both serums simultaneously, and an aggressive power instantly transformed his body.
His body swelled, his clothes were torn by scales, his eyes turned into vertical pupils, and a tail grew behind him.
Soon, the second Lizard Man was born.
"Let's go, my brother, let's make a scene together!" Lizard Devil extended his hand to his newly born Lizard brother.
From the outside, 'Lizard brother' was a head shorter than Lizard Devil, only two and a half meters tall, with a dark brown complexion and a leaner build. His two legs were more powerful, and his claws were longer, making him appear to be an assassin-type fighter.
"Call me Lizard Assassin!"
… … … … … … … … … … … …
At the same time, Eller drove to Tony Stark's seaside Villa.
It must be said that Tony Stark, this playboy, truly knew how to enjoy himself. This Villa, built by the sea, offered warm sea breezes and vast ocean views at any time. Its spacious area was perfect for hosting parties, and its location far from the city meant no worries about disturbing residents.
This place was simply a paradise for hedonists!
After parking the car, Eller entered the luxurious Villa, where Pepper Potts and her secretary Natalie Rushman came out to greet him.
"Long time no see, Mr. Eller, it seems your global trip was very pleasant." Pepper greeted Eller proactively.
When Eller left New York to study at Kamar-Taj, the official explanation was that he was on a global tour.
"It's me who should be congratulating you on your promotion." Eller responded with a smile, then looked at the red-haired woman next to Pepper and asked,
"This must be your new secretary, Ms. Natalie?"
Natalie Rushman, real name Natasha Romanoff, a high-ranking S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent, codenamed 'Black Widow'.
Although Black Widow was not too tall, she had a very capable demeanor, and her curly red hair had a unique charm.
"Hello, Mr. Eller, I've long admired your reputation as a great writer." Black Widow stepped forward, greeting Eller with a very formal smile.
"I will be your liaison from now on. Any investment by Stark Industries in the film adaptation of your work will be communicated by me."
"I will trouble Ms. Natalie a lot in the future."
Eller also responded politely. There was no need for him to expose Black Widow's identity. He even wanted to see Tony Stark's expression when he found out there was a spy beside him.
Just then, muffled thuds came, sounding like two people fighting.
"Mr. Stark hasn't become obsessed with boxing, has he?" Eller asked curiously.
Hearing this, Pepper nodded helplessly, then said, "This should be Mr. Stark's effort towards World peace."
"Interesting." Eller smiled genuinely, then asked the two women, "Does he have an interest in seeing outsiders now?"
"If he sees an outsider now, he'll definitely invite them to spar with him." Pepper said with much distress.
Tony Stark was like a little boy when it came to certain things, even more rebellious than a child.
A few days ago, during the 'Iron Man Suit Ownership Hearing,' Tony Stark even used hacking methods to humiliate his old rival Justin Hammer and the congressman, and it only ended when Justin Hammer dismantled the broadcast television.
In short, Tony Stark had made many enemies because of his actions, and no one knew which corner the next villain wanting his life would emerge from.
Eller stretched his wrists, then smiled and said to the two women, "I used to be a member of a certain fighting club in New York, but I've been busy with work these past two years and haven't participated."
"Natalie, please prepare some protective gear for Mr. Eller." Pepper felt as if another grown-up man had appeared before her.
"I'll go prepare it now." Natalie replied, and then Pepper led Eller to see Tony Stark.
A small boxing ring had been set up in the Villa's living room, where Iron Man Tony Stark was sparring with his driver, Happy Hogan.
But the fighting skills of these two were utterly lacking, because they were both equally bad. One was a carefree playboy, and the other was a driver weighing nearly two hundred pounds. These two sparring was quite fitting.
"Hurry up, Happy! The recoil from your fat is heavier than your punches!" An exuberant Tony Stark provoked Happy.
Happy, who weighed nearly two hundred pounds, was not suited for prolonged exercise. He was already panting, "I can't do it, Tony, let someone else train with you, I've reached my limit."
"Please, if you don't train with me, who else will? I can't exactly ask Pepper to train with me, can I?"
Tony Stark complained to Happy like a child who couldn't get a toy. Then, he noticed two more people in the living room.
"Pepper? And our great writer? It seems you've finished writing 'Their Dads Are All Named Tony Stark', haven't you?" Tony Stark smiled triumphantly, his mustache twitching.
"I plan to write that one with better prose. For now, I've started a new fantasy novel series as a transition." Eller didn't want to indulge Tony Stark's little whims and directly refused him.
"Never mind, then you spar with me for a bit. Let me see if a liberal arts major can fight better than a science major." Tony Stark said somewhat playfully.
Coming from Tony Stark's mouth, that remark carried a hint of mockery. Eller wouldn't indulge this guy either. He had just beaten up the arrogant Alaska a while ago, and now he didn't mind teasing Tony a bit.
"Alright." Eller agreed, and just as he was about to step onto the stage to play with Tony, Black Widow suddenly brought an even more eye-catching piece of information.
"Mr. Stark, I think you'll be interested in this." With that, Natalie turned on the TV, changed a few channels, and the sight of two large lizards smashing things in the streets of New York appeared before everyone's eyes.
Lizard Men? Why are there two? And why is one red and one brown?
Wasn't Dr. Connors' Lizard Man green? Where did these two large lizards come from?
On the TV screen, a red and a brown lizard were wreaking havoc on the street. With a flick of their tails, a car burst into flames, and citizens screamed as they scattered.
And those two lizards thoroughly enjoyed it all. They even randomly grabbed a few citizens and then used their sharp claws to tear open their bodies.
After seeing this, Tony Stark also became serious, "Jarvis, prepare the MK9 Iron Man Suit for me. I'm going to turn these two lizards into Mexican chicken wraps!"
"Yes, sir." The intelligent butler Jarvis replied while operating, "The MK9 Iron Man Suit is ready for combat, but before entering the battlefield, I suggest you change the arc reactor to ensure sufficient energy."
"Keep me updated on the status in real time, Jarvis." Tony took off his protective gear, ready to put on his suit and head to the battlefield. Before leaving, he also said to Eller:
"Next time I'll fight you, great writer."
"I'm always ready, Mr. Stark." Eller smiled slightly, then turned to Black Widow and said:
"Then I'll be leaving, Ms. Natalie, I look forward to seeing you next time."
"Okay, Mr. Eller." Black Widow nodded, then began to guess if Eller was going to notify his good friend.
As a high-ranking S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent, Black Widow also had permission to review Kamen Rider's files. After all, she might work with Geats in the future, and getting to know her colleague's preferences in advance would help in managing work relationships.
… … … … … … … … … … … … … … … …
At the same time, in downtown New York City, not far from the Osborn Group Tower, two large lizards were approaching.
Dr. Connors' heart sank when he saw the news report; his worst fear had come true.
Someone had used the lizard serum to do bad things, and they were heading towards the Osborn Group. Security personnel came to tell Dr. Connors to take shelter.
Dr. Connors was also prepared to follow the security personnel's arrangements, after all, he could only save his research project if he survived and found evidence that these two large lizards had nothing to do with the Osborn Group.
This bio-serum project was not only a means for the Osborn Group to increase its market value, but also Dr. Connors' hope for healing his severed arm.
Because of this severed arm, Dr. Connors even dared not pick up or drop off his children at school, fearing that he would cause them unnecessary injustice.
And as Dr. Connors prepared to leave, he saw a figure moving through the buildings like a swinging pendulum.
"What is that?" Dr. Connors thought he was seeing things.
But the next moment, a figure in a crude red and blue suit, wearing a red wrestling mask, appeared before the two large lizards.
"Good morning, villainous lizards." Spider-Man stood in front of the two lizards, then rapidly shot two webs, interrupting the lizards' movements.
Lizard Devil, whose fun was interrupted, tore off the webs from his hands, then looked at Spider-Man. His vertical pupils, filled with primal murderous desire, slightly contracted. Then, he let out a mocking laugh.
"I thought it was someone important, but it's just a skinny little bug."
"Go home and watch Teletubbies, pajama baby." Lizard Assassin chimed in at this point.
At this moment, Spider-Man's heart was also very flustered; it was his first time dealing with such superpowered criminals, and he was genuinely a bit nervous.
Come on, Peter, you can stop them! Spider-Man encouraged himself internally. Although no one around him was optimistic, as long as he could hold back these two lizards, he could save more people.
"Don't worry, when I tie you up and throw you at the entrance of the NYPD headquarters, you won't be able to speak."
Spider-Man retorted without showing weakness, then shot webs, utilizing his superior mobility to engage in guerrilla warfare with the Lizard brothers.
But the newly debuted Spider-Man was still too overwhelmed facing two enemies simultaneously. Spider-Man's speed and strength hadn't reached their peak, and his equipment was cobbled together from discarded electronic products.
These two lizard monsters, however, were different. They were enhanced by reinforced serum and lizard serum, capable of reaching a top running speed of two hundred kilometers per hour and overturning twenty-ton objects. Besides that, they also possessed the special vision and self-healing abilities of reptiles.
Spider-Man tried his best, dodging the Lizard brothers as much as possible, then looking for opportunities to punch them.
Clang—
When Peter punched Lizard Devil, he only felt his fist hit an iron wall.
"Mr. Lizard, are you wearing iron plating? Isn't it too hot to wear that?" Spider-Man said playfully while dodging Lizard Devil's claws.
In the sunlight, Lizard Devil's claws flashed with a cold gleam. He had already imagined the scene of tearing this little bug apart.
"Shut up, you little bug!" Lizard Devil swept his long tail, intending to break Spider-Man's bones.
Seeing this, Spider-Man jumped in place, dodging Lizard Devil's tail, "Excuse me, Mr. Lizard, spiders are arachnids, not insects."
"You don't have to tell me that!" Lizard Assassin attacked from the side, swinging his sharp giant claws towards Spider-Man.
In an instant, Spider-Man felt his spider-sense blare. He adjusted his body balance with all his might, and thus was only scratched by Lizard Assassin.
With a 'rip,' a large piece of the Spider-Man suit, which resembled pajamas, was torn off by Lizard Assassin. A claw mark was also left on Spider-Man's chest. Then, with another flick of his tail, Spider-Man was sent flying over ten meters away.
After rolling several times on the ground, Spider-Man finally stopped against a telephone pole. Spider-Man now felt dizzy, and all the bones in his body ached.
Seeing this, Lizard Assassin said to Lizard Devil, "He's about to die."
Before becoming Lizard Men, both of them were already ruthless criminals with human lives on their hands, and they knew very well what kind of injuries would cause death.
"Let him die a miserable death." Lizard Devil glanced in Spider-Man's direction, then instructed Lizard Assassin to kill Spider-Man.
"Understood."
Lizard Assassin immediately walked towards Spider-Man, and at this moment, a powerful rock and roll song suddenly blared on the street, which had been filled with wails and screams.
It sounded like an AC/DC song, also a favorite of a certain famous playboy.
Accompanied by the roar of thrusters, a red and gold figure flew towards the battlefield.
Lizard Devil looked in the direction the figure was flying from, then uttered a name, "Tony Stark?"
Only one person in all of New York could do such a thing, and at this moment, Tony flew in front of the two lizard monsters.
"Surrender, or I'll smash you to pieces and throw you into the sewer."
"Finally, a worthy prey." A fanatic glint appeared in Lizard Devil's eyes, but at this moment, he suddenly felt a sense of danger.
That feeling wasn't something Tony Stark could give him, and at this moment, only Spider-Man on the field heard a voice.
Magnum Tactical Blast!
As the faint voice sounded, a red energy beam, after multiple accelerations, finally broke the sound barrier, soared through the sky, and flew towards the brown Lizard Assassin.
Bang—
With a muffled thud, Lizard Assassin's head was directly blown apart. In an instant, blood splattered everywhere. He didn't even realize his death; his body remained standing in place, preserving its posture from before he died.
It took a while for the headless Lizard Man's corpse to finally collapse.
"Who is it?!"
The Lizard Devil was startled by this sudden turn of events; although he was much stronger than the Lizard Assassin, he couldn't help but feel terrified at the sight.
On a building not far away, Eller, in his Magnum form, held the Magnum Shooter 40X in rifle mode. He had just shot and killed the brown Lizard Assassin.
Now, Eller prepared to kill the red Lizard in the same way.
Although he didn't know what was going on, it was best to kill these two lizard monsters first.
Buzzing—
At this moment, Eller suddenly heard a buzzing sound, which was rapidly approaching him.
Realizing there was a third enemy, Eller quickly folded the barrel, transforming the Magnum Shooter 40X back into pistol mode, then swiftly turned and fired a blind shot.
The attacker drew a rapier from her waist, blocking the energy bullet, then landed in front of Eller.
"A fox mask, high-tech energy weapons… You must be Kamen Rider Geats, who defeated Abomination two years ago, right?" the attacker said to Eller.
Eller turned around and saw the person who had just tried to ambush him. Judging by her build, this attacker was female, with a pair of wings on her back that allowed her to fly at high speed, a wasp mask on her head, and a kimono, seemingly very fond of Far Eastern culture.
The woman's aura felt very familiar to Eller; he was sure this person was Bee Miji, the female host at the Roxxon Corporation exhibition.
Considering Roxxon Corporation's close ties with HYDRA in other Universes, this Bee Miji was likely one of HYDRA's enhanced individuals.
"Ambushing isn't a quality a beautiful lady should possess," Eller said to Bee Miji mockingly. Then, he raised the Magnum Shooter 40X and said to Bee Miji:
"You've ruined my mood, and it's made me a little angry."
"I'm very sorry, Mr. Geats, but I cannot let you kill that big lizard. He still has a very significant role for me."
Bee Miji raised her rapier, her compound eyes behind the mask focused entirely on Kamen Rider Geats. The moment he moved, Bee Miji would try to stab him into a sieve.
To see how far the lizard brothers could go, Bee Miji had been monitoring them from the sky, so the moment the Lizard Assassin was killed, she immediately searched for the sniper's location and found Eller at once.
"This is truly an unpleasant conversation." Eller realized that the big lizard was something HYDRA had created, and his killing intent surged. Then, he skillfully pulled the trigger.
In an instant, countless bullets shot towards Bee Miji.
Facing the fierce rain of bullets, Bee Miji raised her rapier to block some of them, then fluttered her wings, instantly accelerating and dodging the first wave of attack.
A wasp's eye structure is special, providing a very wide field of vision, and also strong locking and tracking capabilities.
This powerful vision allowed Bee Miji to easily find a path through the bullet rain. At the same time, the enhanced serum also gave her reaction abilities to match this vision, as well as a physique that provided powerful explosive strength.
"Now it's my turn, Mr. Kamen Rider."
The speed of Bee Miji's wings behind her accelerated. In an instant, her speed reached two hundred kilometers per hour.
At such high speeds, Bee Miji's rapier was more dangerous than many hot weapons. "Close combat is my domain!"
Just as the rapier was about to hit him, Eller slightly tilted his head, and a silver light grazed his head. Then, he pressed the Magnum Shooter 40X against Bee Miji's lower abdomen.
Bang bang bang bang—
Eller transformed into an emotionless firing machine. In an instant, countless bullets struck Bee Miji, tearing apart her lower abdomen.
"Her speed is fast, but not as fast as Quicksilver…" Eller thought.
The Magnum armor's computational processing ability is top-notch; Eller can predict what an enemy wants to do before they even get close to him.
This ability is very suitable for dealing with enemies who believe they can easily kill Eller if they get close, such as Bee Miji in front of Eller.
But even after her abdomen was torn apart, Bee Miji didn't die immediately. Eller even saw her abdomen healing at an extremely fast rate.
"This guy is definitely not just simple enhanced serum + biological modification; whoever modified her definitely added other things to the surgery."
Bee Miji, having recovered slightly, wielded her rapier like a long blade. Eller retreated two or three steps, dodging the enemy's sharp weapon.
If this weapon could be used by Bee Miji to block bullets, it might be Vibranium stolen from Wakanda.
After forcing Eller back, Bee Miji covered her abdomen and got up. She glared fiercely at Eller and then said:
"I remember you, Mr. Kamen Rider. Next time we meet, I will tear you to shreds!"
Her delicate voice was filled with killing intent. Having suffered a loss at Eller's hands, Bee Miji prepared for a future battle.
Seeing this, Eller aimed at Bee Miji again and pulled back the hammer of the Magnum Shooter 40X.
Bullet Loaded
The next moment, Bee Miji took off from the ground, and Eller pulled the trigger.
Several light bullets, as large as basketballs, shot towards Bee Miji's back. Her fragile, transparent wings were shattered first, and then Bee Miji herself was blasted away by the powerful impact.
Having just witnessed Bee Miji's formidable regenerative ability, Eller couldn't be sure that a single "Bullet Loaded" would kill her.
So, Eller ran to the edge of the rooftop, trying to find evidence that Bee Miji had been killed.
But Eller looked around and found no trace of Bee Miji.
"Was she rescued?" Eller speculated. Since Bee Miji appeared as a manager of Roxxon Corporation, it meant that there were other super-powered individuals hidden within that company.
With the enemy in the light and him in the dark, coupled with no clues, Eller couldn't impulsively chase after the opponent regardless of the consequences.
But Eller wasn't empty-handed; he had inserted a tracker into Bee Miji's wound, which could pinpoint the enemy's location in real-time.
Thinking of this, Eller decided it would be best to check on the other battlefield.
And when Eller came to the edge of the rooftop and looked down, he discovered a shocking scene.
Iron Man was being beaten by the red-skinned Lizard with no ability to retaliate, and his gold-titanium alloy armor was even being crushed and deformed by the big lizard.
Dr. Connors couldn't possess such strength. Recalling Kletus Cassidy's earlier prison break, Eller speculated that this red-skinned Lizard was very likely Kletus Cassidy.
"The future 'Carnage' turned into a Lizard Devil?" Eller aimed his Magnum Shooter 40X, but when he was about to give the Lizard Devil a shot, Eller couldn't find any trace of the Lizard Devil.
After seeing his brother killed by a single shot from Eller, the Lizard Devil began to worry if he would also be killed by a single shot. So, while Eller was distracted by Bee Miji, he took the opportunity to interfere with Tony's vision, and using this as an opening, he lifted a manhole cover and escaped into the sewers.
"The power of that weapon is simply terrifying!" The Lizard Devil felt a lingering fear of having narrowly escaped death. He needed to find a way to counter that terrifying weapon.
At this moment, Eller descended from above. He passed by Tony and mockingly said, "Isn't this Mr. Stark? How did your Iron Man Suit get so severely damaged?"
"…"
Tony's face darkened at these words. He then looked at Eller and said to the Kamen Rider, whom he had only met twice:
"My Iron Man Suit is constantly being updated. Why is your Iron Man Suit still the same as when you fought Abomination?"
"Perhaps I've evolved internally?" Eller smiled mysteriously, then stopped chatting with Tony. He went straight to Spider-Man's side and, with his back to Tony, said:
"Alright, no bickering with you today. I have more important things to do. Ciao~"
After saying this, Eller took out several smoke bombs from his dimensional pocket and threw them on the ground. As the smoke spread, Eller took the injured Spider-Man and left the area.
"Sir, I detected several news vans…" Jarvis was about to remind Tony when he was interrupted by the latter.
"I don't want to be interviewed today." Tony, in a gloomy mood, didn't want to face cameras. Then, he piloted his Iron Man Suit and flew into the sky.
The battle briefly ended, and at this moment, people from the Osborn Group appeared at the scene.
The leader was Dr. Connors. He looked at the brown Lizard Man's corpse left behind at the scene, his face filled with disbelief.
"This cannot be the lizard serum I researched. They must have added something else to make the effect… so powerful."
Professor Connors couldn't find the words to describe this humanoid lizard corpse. Behind him, a refined-looking man in a custom-made suit, appearing to be only in his fifties, walked with a cane to Dr. Connors and asked:
"So, someone helped us accelerate the experiment, is that right?"
"You could interpret it that way, Mr. Osborn." Dr. Connors pushed up his glasses and then said to 'Mr. Osborn':
"I need this corpse. With it, I can speed up the serum's progress."
"How much faster?"
This person was Norman Osborn. His actual age was less than ten years older than Tony, but the old age in his brows made him look like an old man on the verge of death.
"One year." Dr. Connors guaranteed, "I can produce a more effective serum within a year, and it won't result in this terrifying appearance."
"One year…" Norman Osborn pondered for a moment, then shook his head, sighing softly:
"I finally see hope. Even if I don't have many years left to live after injecting the serum, it'll be worth it, Harry. The Osborn family curse will end with you."
Dr. Connors watched Norman Osborn talking to himself, and after a while, he spoke up to remind Norman.
"Mr. Osborn? I feel like there will be others who want this corpse. Should we take samples now…?"
"No, no one can take away my hope, no one!"
Norman Osborn said firmly. His decaying body seemed to burst with infinite strength. For the continuation of the Osborn family, Norman would do anything at any cost!
............
Meanwhile, in a high-end apartment in New York, Bee Miji sat up from the bed, touching her lower abdomen.
"It hurts so much!" Bee Miji's cute face twisted in pain. She now felt furious whenever she thought of that fox mask. "Geats, huh? Next time, I'll tear you to shreds!"
"But I don't think you can do that. He's much stronger than you. If I hadn't intervened, he would have killed you by now."
Dario Agger, the CEO of Roxxon Corporation, said, shaking his head. His arms were crossed over his chest, and his eyes were full of distrust.
As a member of HYDRA, Dario possessed immense power without needing modifications; that power even brought him close to godhood.
Hearing this, Bee Miji's expression turned cold. Then, she suddenly thought of something, so she looked up at Dario and asked:
"I need an expert in biology. Can you find one for me?"
"It seems your brain has come up with some mischievous ideas again. You rest for a few days; I'll handle finding someone."
Dario nodded. Testing the limits of modified humans was also one of his tasks, so he was quite tolerant of Bee Miji.
However, this didn't mean Dario could endlessly tolerate Bee Miji's failures. For better testing, and also to save her life, Dario made a decision.
"I will also have the organization send another modified human to support you, and I will write in the report that the wasp's potential as an individual modification template is mediocre. In the future, we should try to choose more excellent biological species as individual modification templates."
Dario's words made Bee Miji grit her teeth, but she didn't refute his idea. Who could blame her for losing to Kamen Rider Geats?
Because of one's weakness, one has no right to speak… This was one of the iron rules for HYDRA's modified humans.
............
Meanwhile, in a subway maintenance room in New York, Eller was treating Spider-Man's wounds.
Just as he did when saving Uncle Ben, Eller poured the Water of Life onto a towel and then wiped Spider-Man's wounds.
Spider-Man only felt a tingling sensation at the wound, and he felt as refreshed as if he had taken a hot bath after sweating profusely.
"Ah, that feels good!" Spider-Man couldn't help but exclaim.
"Don't shout so loud. It wouldn't be good if outsiders came." Eller quickly scolded him.
"Okay." Spider-Man immediately obediently covered his mouth, then looked at Eller, who was helping him with his wounds.
For some reason, Spider-Man always felt that the person helping him now resembled a certain acquaintance, especially the way he treated wounds, which perfectly matched.
So, Spider-Man Peter Parker tentatively called out, "Senior?"
"Only recognizing me now?" Eller smiled slightly, then said in an annoyed tone, "I've really taken care of you for nothing all this time, Peter."
Hearing this, Peter no longer hid his identity. He excitedly took off his mask and then said to Eller:
"Senior Eller? It really is you! You're Kamen Rider Geats? Oh my goodness, you're Kamen Rider Geats who defeated that big monster. Oh, I can't believe such a cool person has been by my side all along."
"Shut your mouth, Peter." Eller quickly stopped Peter, otherwise he would never stop talking.
"Okay." Peter obediently closed his mouth, and Eller also voluntarily deactivated his transformation at this moment.
After seeing Eller's familiar face, Peter still couldn't help but say a few words.
"I can't believe you, Senior, are the legendary Kamen Rider Geats. No wonder there was no trace of him after you went on your World tour. So that's how it is…"
"Alright, alright, if you don't stop talking, your wound is going to open up." Eller tricked Peter once, then took Peter's hand and removed his web-shooters.
This initial version of the web-shooter was very crude, appearing to be made from some used electronic components.
"So, you rely on this thing to shoot webs? Isn't it a bit too simple?"
"I can't help it, my pocket money is only enough for me to buy materials from the scrap yard," Peter said helplessly. "This suit was also bought from a second-hand store."
One could only say that money was a problem for even a hero. Peter's family background was average, and he certainly couldn't tell Uncle Ben, 'I'm going to fight crime, give me some extra pocket money to buy equipment.' So, Peter could only rely on himself.
Seeing this, Eller took out some money from his pocket and handed it to Peter. "Get yourself some better gear, and don't come out in your pajamas. Make yourself look handsome, or it will affect the city's appearance."
Peter took the thick wad of banknotes and was somewhat dazed for a moment. He had never seen so much money in his life.
"Senior, you're truly too kind!" Peter said gratefully.
"If you have any problems, come find me." Eller stood up, then prepared to leave.
After being bitten by the radioactive spider, Peter's recovery ability also improved, and with the power of the Water of Life, he would fully recover before reaching home.
"Wait a moment, Senior, I feel like I'm not strong enough. Can you tell me how to become stronger?" Peter saw Eller preparing to leave and immediately shouted, "I can't beat those two lizards at all."
Hearing this, Eller stopped and then said to Peter, "Trust your own potential and your instincts. If you want to learn fighting techniques, come find me at my house. I'll teach you when I have time."
"Okay, Senior."
After speaking, Eller left the repair room, then returned to the surface through the subway platform, and finally drove away.
On the way home, Eller suddenly remembered something, so he called someone using the number he remembered.
"Hello, is this Ms. Bee Miji?"
Although Eller had thrown away Bee Miji's business card, he had memorized her number with his photographic memory.
On the other end of the phone, Bee Miji, whose injuries hadn't fully healed, suppressed her negative emotions and spoke to Eller in a relatively calm tone.
"May I ask who this is?"
"I'm the person you wanted to invite as a test driver at the tech exhibition that day, have you forgotten me?" Eller said with a smile.
Just over ten minutes ago, the two were fighting for their lives, but now they had to discuss things calmly. It was truly a dramatic scene.
Eller made this call to test Bee Miji's current state.
Hearing this, Bee Miji's eyes lit up. She finally heard some good news today, so she pretended not to know Eller's name and asked him:
"Oh, oh, oh, so it's you. May I ask your name?"
"Ailer Hestia," Eller replied.
"Okay, Mr. Eller, I understand your desire to experience greater speed, but I've been a bit busy these past two days. I might have to ask you to wait a few more days before I'm free to see you," Bee Miji said with a helpless tone, sounding as if she were wronged.
Busy? Busy tearing down half of New York City with the Lizard Devil? Eller scoffed at her words, then, to annoy Bee Miji, he deliberately said:
"That's truly unfortunate. I'm only free these next few days. It's a pity we can't collaborate."
"..."
Hearing this, Bee Miji immediately continued, "It's fine, Mr. Eller, I can personally bring the contract to your home for a visit."
Taking Eller, this high-quality test subject, was Bee Miji's primary mission. She would not violate this basic logic.
A home visit? More like a kidnapping, right? Eller had already guessed what the other party would do, but he wasn't afraid of HYDRA or Roxxon Corporation.
Even if Bee Miji came to his home, would she meet the real Eller?
"That's also fine. How about tomorrow afternoon? I happen to be free at home then." Eller agreed to Bee Miji's request.
These words made Bee Miji Happy. "That's truly wonderful! I'm very much looking forward to meeting you."
"Alright, I'll hang up now." Eller ended the call, then pondered how to set up a trap for Bee Miji.
...
At the same time, in the high-end apartment rented by Roxxon Corporation, Bee Miji's face showed joy.
"As long as I send the target back, I'll have time to deal with that fox bastard!"
After a moment of happiness, Bee Miji took out a syringe from the nightstand in her room, then injected herself. A strong sense of satisfaction instantly filled Bee Miji's cerebral cortex.
This was a nutrient solution that HYDRA regularly distributed to its cyborgs. This technology was very cost-effective for them; just a small injection could meet the cyborg's needs for several days, as well as provide mental satisfaction.
However, if cyborgs did not regularly consume the specialized nutrient solution, their strength would decline, and their heavily consumed bodies would actively enter a dormant state.
This was an experience HYDRA had learned from certain incidents.
A few hours later, Bee Miji received a call from Dario, asking her to meet the new colleagues.
Soon after, in the apartment's reception room, Bee Miji saw two figures.
One was a muscular man wearing a black combat suit with cobra features and a cobra helmet. Bee Miji could feel that he, like her, was a cyborg, but the other figure made Bee Miji feel strange.
This person looked thin and tall, but what was most striking was his body covered in wolf fur and a pair of wolf ears, making him look like a werewolf.
This guy was definitely not a cyborg, Bee Miji could be sure, because their cyborgs could freely control their appearance, switching between two forms at will.
Dario stood behind the two and began to introduce them to Bee Miji, "This is Voris, the new type of Cobra cyborg dispatched by the organization, and he is the biological expert, Jackal."
Jackal, one of Spider-Man's potential enemies in the future, was originally supposed to create Peter Parker clones and cause a lot of trouble, but in this Universe, he was recruited by HYDRA and became one of their mad scientists.
"I heard there's a big lizard in New York City. I'm very interested in him." Jackal rubbed his hands, his eyes full of anticipation. "I hope you can take me to see him."
Upon hearing Jackal's request, Bee Miji nodded and agreed, "I will take you to him."
Hearing this, Jackal rubbed his furry paws, then replied with a face full of anticipation, "Then lead the way, madam."
Subsequently, Bee Miji led Jackal to the Lizard Devil hiding in the sewers.
For some reason, Bee Miji felt that the Lizard Devil in front of her seemed to have become stronger. Could it be that this lizard monster had the ability to adapt to harsh environments and become stronger?
"Lizard Devil, I've brought someone who can help you," Bee Miji said to the Lizard Devil.
Hearing this, the Lizard Devil turned around, facing Bee Miji and Jackal directly.
Its huge body, reddish skin, and scales instantly captured Jackal's full attention.
"So beautiful," Jackal said, enchanted. "It's simply the best creature!"
"..." The Lizard Devil was silent for a brief moment after hearing Jackal's words, then he let out a laugh, his long tail sweeping across the water, and then said to Jackal:
"I like you very much."
"Me too."
Perverts appreciate each other. A lizard man and a Jackal man, the moment their eyes met, Bee Miji almost threw up.
"Cough, cough, Jackal, you should quickly help our friend," Bee Miji urged.
Hearing this, Jackal smiled mysteriously, then took out a dozen syringes. "My dear friend, I need a little of your blood."
"My blood? What are you going to do?" the Lizard Devil asked.
"I will combine your blood with another biological virus to create a brand new biological virus. I can guarantee that in just one week, New York will be filled with your potential companions." Jackal painted a beautiful future for the Lizard Devil.
Hearing this, the Lizard Devil's eyes showed joy. He impatiently stretched out his arm, then urged:
"Draw as much as you want, even dozens more tubes are fine."
"You are truly generous, my friend." After hearing the Lizard Devil's polite words, Jackal stepped forward and began to draw the Lizard Devil's blood.
Only after Jackal finished drawing the blood did Bee Miji and Jackal, who was carrying a pile of Lizard Devil blood samples, leave. The Lizard Devil also planned to change his lair; the whole city was looking for him now, and this place was no longer as safe.
Jackal had to go to the laboratory to create the biological virus, so Bee Miji returned to the high-end apartment alone.
"You're back." The Cobra cyborg, Voris, stared at Bee Miji emotionlessly, a feeling that made Bee Miji very uncomfortable.
"Don't scare her, Voris," Dario said, stepping forward. "She's an old-model cyborg. Even with a secondary reinforcement surgery, she's not as strong as you."
Hearing this, Bee Miji's eyes showed a hint of surprise, then she said in disbelief, "The organization actually sent out the next generation of cyborgs directly?"
"Yes, the organization's technological progress has entered a period of explosive growth." Dario nodded, then glanced at Voris, who was sitting stiffly in the chair.
To be honest, Dario still preferred Bee Miji a little; at least they could communicate.
This new type of cyborg was purely a biological weapon; there was no such thing as communication. Once a mission was given, they would destroy the target at all costs.
Bee Miji still felt afraid. She hid behind Dario, hoping to avoid Voris's gaze.
"Mr. Dario, I need to tell you something..."
Then, Bee Miji explained Eller's willingness to meet her and her own thoughts.
After hearing the whole story, Dario frowned slightly, then said earnestly:
"There's no problem with the method of sedating him midway and taking him to the Base, but don't forget that the intelligence once said that his friend is Kamen Rider Geats."
"I know, but I'm willing to dedicate everything to the organization," Bee Miji said seriously.
Hearing this, Dario thought that the brainwashing of these cyborgs was truly successful. As long as there was a glimmer of possibility, they would act at all costs, even if the cost was their lives.
"Then go ahead and do it. Just remember not to expose the organization," Dario reminded Bee Miji.
"Thank you for your support."
Bee Miji took two steps back, then bowed ninety degrees to Dario, her face showing an expression of facing death unflinchingly.
After doing all this, Bee Miji went to prepare for the operation.
And when Bee Miji was far away, Voris stood up, then looked in the direction Bee Miji had left and said:
"Old models are old models. Their efficiency is too poor; they don't even know they've been tagged with a tracker."
Cobras have infrared sensing capabilities, and this ability was specially transplanted to Voris during the transplant modification surgery.
In Voris's sight, there was a tracker on Bee Miji, and she didn't even know it.
This was considered 'incompetent' behavior in Voris's eyes.
"But why didn't you tell her?" Dario asked.
"It has nothing to do with my mission," Voris replied coldly. "My mission is to kill Kamen Rider Geats. I will not do anything unrelated to the mission."
Seeing this, Dario decided that his report needed to emphasize the mission coordination capabilities of the new type of cyborgs.
...
At the same time, in the sewers of New York, Eller, wearing a DGP uniform and a fox mask, was searching for clues. He had followed the tracker's previous signal all the way here.
The ground here felt sticky, as if coated with a layer of mucus, and in other places, there was shed dead skin.
Eller used his flashlight to look around, then concluded, "It seems this is the lair where that red lizard stayed."
After confirming that this was once the Lizard Devil's lair, Eller searched carefully. Soon after, he found some seals from medical equipment.
This was not a good sign. It meant that the Lizard Devil had accomplices, and they also possessed medical or biological knowledge.
A scientist who possesses these skills and deals with the Lizard Devil must be crazy... Eller immediately thought of some bad things.
"The best outcome would be if they sprayed lizard repellent all over the city." Eller frowned, he needed to find some people who could help him.
For example, Dr. Connors, an expert in the field who was very familiar with the genetic makeup of reptiles, was a good option, but Eller had to test him to make sure he wasn't an accomplice of the Lizard Devil.
Coincidentally, Eller had a psychic living at his home who could tell if someone was lying, and that efficiency was definitely higher than a lie detector.
So, Eller immediately took action. He was going to meet Dr. Connors today.
