Testing and visible improvements

[Abandoned warehouse by the docks--September 2003]

I am currently in an abandoned warehouse near the docks where I had visited by chance when I was a child as Peter. It apparently used to be owned by a famous shipping company which had to abandon this warehouse due to shifting its base for business elsewhere after suffering some financial losses. I didn't study or try to research how stocks and other stuff work, also I am not interested in it, so...I don't know?

Doesn't matter anyway. I got a warehouse full of useless and rusty metal pipes for my own use and future training so I am happy.

First of all, I integrated with the remaining abilities easily because of [adaptability], I saw how [Five senses boost] works partially. It gave a superhuman boost of touch, hearing, sight, smell and taste. I experienced the smell part of it and it was very strong. Along with the stench in the bathroom that I smelled, I was able to pick up some smells in a range of a few blocks around my house...Unlike how I had read in some novels about how some Mcs can't handle the overload of information that they get from enhanced senses, due to my high intelligence, I am able to process them all. This ability is quite useful...

That's one, now I came here to test the rest of them! I am lowkey quite excited even if I try to be edgy outwardly haha.

I was curious about [Stingers] ability I got, so I mentally thought about using them,

*Shiiiiiiiiikk*

With a spurt of blood from below my wrist on both hands, black dagger-like blades came out!!!

"Whoa whoa whoa!!!" I just exclaimed in surprise and went off balance for a few seconds and fell on my butt while watching the so-called stingers come out. I had no words..except,

"This is so freaking cool!" I said while being giddy and commanding my stingers to go back and then come out. I did lose some blood but... the wound healed almost immediately after the stingers went by. This also confirmed that [Healing factor(minor)] was also working. [Pain immunity] was also obviously working well, considering how I am still calm after the blades came in and out.

Wait...now that I think about it, it is night right now...but I am able to see everything so clearly? [Night vision] seems OP alright. I thought that whatever I see would have a green tint on it just like how night vision goggles have them but I see everything as I would during daytime.

I next decided to try venom blast, after thinking about using it, my hands got a purple round sphere on them, just like how Gwen in Ben10 had, just in purple. I instinctively got information on how to use this ability as easily as breathing from the skill, so I aimed it at the ground a few meters ahead, where my blood was and fired-

*sizzle*

The sphere or disk-like projectile flew from the sphere in my hand towards the place I aimed and it flew silently till it arrived and it surprisingly melted the floor. I went towards and looked down to see a meter-deep hole which was still sizzling...This ability is too dangerous...I like it!!!

I already knew my strength was increased so I tried running from one end of the warehouse to the other and discovered that my speed had doubled and I had a feeling that it could be increased easily as long as I practised more. I couldn't test my durability and reflexes currently because I honestly don't care much about durability...What is the enemy gonna do? kill me? I would come back from death faster than they say "Ha". About reflexes...we will see when I get involved in a fight.

Next, I tried wallcrawling and without any suspense, I just got to it. No need to look dumbly at my hands or anything, I just went to the wall and started climbing, it was easy...

I made the iconic hand sign of spider man and webbing shot out! I tried shooting webs from all angles and increasing and decreasing the length of the webs. I could also consciously decide how long I want the webs to last, It could stay forever(unless someone manages to remove or cut it) or even less than a second. Keeping it for a second only was useless but when practising I did set them to dissipate after 15 seconds.

All this took me only 3 hours. I dislike prolonging stuff I need to do and wasting time, so I finished testing so fast. Being able to assess myself, and compile my understanding of my abilities was easier due to my high intelligence so I was done with it in such a short time. I keep mentioning 'high intelligence' but honestly, it is the "Da real cheat!!!" so to say...It helps tremendously in everything.

The common thing which I observed was that the more I use these abilities the stronger they become. The venom blast only had a depth of 1 meter at the start but after doing it a couple of times, it increased to 1.5 meters. It definitely turned a deeper purple colour as well, so I guess it did get stronger. Same for the others, there was a visible improvement in them by 1.5x after practising them for 10-15 times.

The growth rate is excellent, I reckon, that I could raise my strength to Captain America's level in a week of lifting weights. I was confused initially about how come I was so weak, Spiderman was able to lift at least 10-15 tons and 40-60 tons at max effort in the movies or 100-300 tons like in the comics, so me being so weak made no sense, but I have a theory that maybe, in exchange of infinite growth limit and high growth speed my initial increase of strength starts low. It is still better than hitting my limit at 40-60 tons so I am not complaining...*Shrug*

After this contemplation, I decided to start the grind. I loved playing RPGs in my past life and being a spider man along with these extra abilities in this life, makes me super excited so I started right away.

I sometimes think that I talk in my mind too much...do I? I mean...it's a waste of effort to talk when you can think faster right? Having no real friends in this life, along with a faster brain than a faster mouth I think I am losing my social skills but...friends and speaking are overrated anyways...right?

I am back!! and exams are over! I hope I get good marks, I don't wanna repeat a year ;-; Anyways, enjoy the chapter!

This book is fun to write, and I am having fun, if you have any ideas for arcs, please do point them out in the comments :)
