"Patta!" With a sound, several books scattered and fell under the table, and the seemingly empty laboratory returned to silence.
The small, cuboid space under the podium was narrow and dim, and Vincent and Gwen were almost face to face, so close that their warm breaths brushed against each other's faces, and they could faintly hear each other's quickening heartbeats.
"Vincent, what are you doing?" The blonde girl blinked, still confused, a clear light flashing in her sapphire-like eyes.
"I want to borrow your ability," Vincent said seriously.
Although he didn't know why Agent Natasha had come, it was best to take precautionary measures. With Gwen's Super Spider ability, he could handle any emergency that might arise.
"Borrow my ability?" The blonde girl, Gwen, was stunned for a moment, then quickly understood Vincent's meaning. Her fair cheeks and earlobes flushed crimson, and she almost looked like she was steaming.
"Here at school, in this place?"
Gwen bit her smooth, pink lower lip and glanced at the laboratory outside. Her exposed skin was slightly red.
"It's fine if you don't want to," Vincent didn't force her. After all, for Gwen, who was still the class monitor, it was indeed a bit too stimulating under the podium… "Who said I don't want to…" Gwen tried her best to utter the sentence, her voice as faint as a mosquito, making one wonder if she hadn't been bitten by a Super Spider.
Vincent hadn't felt anything originally, but now seeing Gwen so shy, his heart also began to pound, and his body temperature rose with their close proximity.
"Then I'll start," Vincent looked at the girl's delicate face close by and suddenly felt his lips a little dry.
Gwen closed her eyes nervously, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, her chin tilted up at an appropriate angle, and her smooth, pink lips slightly parted.
Vincent took a light breath, gently held the girl's shoulders, and lowered his head forward.
Just as the two were about to touch, however—
Thump-thump!
A sudden sound of footsteps came from the corridor. The person passed the doorway and entered the laboratory.
Under the podium.
Vincent and Gwen's bodies stiffened instantly, remaining motionless, instinctively slowing their breathing.
They had hoped it was just a classmate who would leave soon.
But the footsteps kept getting closer, coming towards the podium where they were!
"Almost forgot something again…" The person muttered to himself with a hint of helplessness, arriving at the laboratory podium and beginning to clear glass instruments and other items from the table.
It was Dr. Curt Connors.
Vincent and Gwen didn't dare to breathe, looking at the Dr. teacher's shiny leather shoes right outside the table.
If they were discovered, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Fortunately, Dr. Curt didn't take long to tidy up. In less than half a minute, he had packed all the items on the table and hadn't discovered Vincent and Gwen hiding under the table.
However, just as Dr. Curt was about to leave with his things.
"Clang!"
A glass cup fell from the podium to the floor. The cup didn't break but rolled further inward on the ground, rolling under the podium table.
Dr. Curt sighed and immediately bent down to pick it up.
"This!" Vincent and Gwen's pupils slightly contracted.
But in the next moment, something unexpected happened!
Before Dr. Curt could bend down, his body suddenly trembled violently, his hands abruptly braced on the podium, and a low growl, unlike anything a human could make, was suppressed from deep within his throat!
"Damn it, why now!" His originally gentle voice became hoarse. Dr. Curt forcefully covered his mouth to prevent himself from actually roaring.
His refined face was filled with an expression of pain. The podium he was bracing with his hands creaked, and his shirt and suit were inexplicably torn by expanding muscles!
Under the podium.
Vincent and Gwen watched this scene with uncertainty, only to see two monstrous, broad, green-scaled, lizard-like feet emerge from Dr. Curt's forcibly torn shoes!
At the same time.
A thick, green-scaled long tail extended from behind the lab coat Dr. Curt was wearing, fiercely and violently whipping the air left and right, immediately creating whooshing sounds within the laboratory!
The floor was shattered, the blackboard was ripped, and deep claw marks were left on the desktop!
Dr. Curt in front of the table revealed his true monster form!
"The Dr. is a lizard?!" That thought flashed through Vincent's mind, accompanied by a sweet scent, and an undeniable softness and warmth came from his lips.
Vincent's eyes widened, and what met his gaze was the girl's delicate and exquisite face.
Without thinking too much, Vincent instantly took the initiative, forcefully taking the necessary medium from Gwen's lips!
Buzz—
Two highly synchronized Spider-Senses first tentatively touched, then deeply intertwined, even wanting to completely merge as one!
Account password entered correctly.
Super Spider Vincent, re-logged in!
...Thump-thump!!
Completely unaware of what was happening under the table, Dr. Curt, whose body had transformed into a giant lizard, stumbled and burst out of the laboratory doorway!
The next moment Dr. Curt left.
Inside the laboratory, the entire table on the podium was flung open!
"Gwen, your outfit is in my backpack!" Vincent, who had stood up, said quickly.
"Okay. I'm going to change now. You figure out a way to evacuate everyone in the school immediately! Oh, and there's something for you in my locker too; remember to get it first!" Gwen quickly threw out this sentence, and without waiting for Vincent's reply, she nimbly and swiftly rushed out of the laboratory!
Vincent followed closely behind Gwen, leaving the laboratory and heading alone towards the office building opposite the teaching building.
Arriving at the main entrance of the office building.
Vincent happened to meet Counselor Roth, who was walking out of the office building.
Counselor Roth saw him and immediately waved, saying, "Vincent, I was just looking for you!"
"Looking for me?" Vincent was taken aback.
"It's the new dean. She specifically mentioned your name and wants you to go to the dean's office right now," Counselor Roth said, patting his shoulder.
"No problem," Vincent agreed first, then said seriously, "Counselor, listen to me! I just saw Dr. Curt turn into a lizard, and I'm worried that the teachers and students at school might be in danger. Please take the students from the teaching building and evacuate them outside!"
Counselor Roth's entire body trembled, and he asked incredulously, "Dr. Curt, a lizard? Is that true?!"
"I just saw it with my own eyes!" Vincent said with certainty.
If it were an ordinary teacher or counselor, facing such a bizarre story from a student, they would probably dismiss it as a joke.
But Vincent trusted Counselor Roth; after all, they had experienced the Battle of New York together!
Counselor Roth was silent for a moment, then nodded seriously: "I understand. I'll go evacuate the students from the school right now!"
Vincent secretly breathed a sigh of relief and continued into the office building, heading to the dean's office.
He was afraid that Counselor Roth alone wouldn't be convincing enough, and it just so happened that the dean had something to discuss with him...
