7 It's Time!
*The Next Day*
"Well, isn't this interesting." I thought aloud.
"Indeed, looks like the gamma radiation makes a connection with another dimension to channel energy. This could only mean one thing." Eve agreed and glanced towards me.
'One Below All is connected to this universe.' I said telepathically. One thing I learned from Kamar Taj was that, no matter what happens, we don't say the name of dimensional entities aloud. Because that enables them to track the person who said that.
"But it isn't all bad, absorbing their DNA should give you similar powers' except it will be fueled by your own energy," Eve informed me.
"Wait, we don't need to make a serum based on it?" I asked confusedly.
"Nope, you needed because you were still human, and having bitten by multiple spiders would have given you their powers because of me, but I would also be busy keeping you alive, thus lowering the efficiency. That problem no longer exists, unless you bring something like celestial DNA." Eve informed me, huh, neat.
"And how long would the integration take?" I asked.
"About 15 minutes. You would need time to adapt completely, but that should take a few days at max." She informed me.
"We are free for a few days because of the attack anyways, let's do this," I said and opened vials containing Abomination, Hulk, and Leader's blood. Or more like Leader's cerebrospinal fluid(It surrounds the brain and spinal cord).
Eve extended my fingers and they dipped in the vials draining them. I was hit by pain all over, but it was less than when I took the serum. Good thing I made the chair of adamantium, or else it would have broken because of how strong my grip is. And I could feel it getting stronger.
After a while, the pain ended, and I felt a new energy inside me, which I had trouble controlling for a few seconds but it became easier. Faster than when I adapted to the spider-powers.
"Eve status," I said, as she displayed it on the contact lens I was wearing.
[[
Status:-
Name- Peter Benjamin Parker
Age- 15 years
Species- Supernatural Arachnid- Human
Power level- City level(State level when powers are fully controlled with symbiont)
Powers-(*new)
**Bio-Gamma Manipulation**:- Bio-gamma reactor, Gamma Empowerment, Gamma constructs creation, super genius intelligence, Telepathy, Telekinesis, Reactive Adaptation.
Bio-gamma reactor- Cells act like gamma reactors providing a constant flow of Gamma energy. The host has complete control over created energy. They can also absorb any other radiation and convert them into gamma radiation, then release them as they want(Beams, blasts, etc).
Gamma empowerment- Posses superhuman physiology with immense strength, speed, senses, stamina, due to empowerment through Gamma energy.
Gamma constructs creation- create gamma energy constructs from the user's energy or manipulate touched matter by infusing them with Gamma radiation.
Supergenius intelligence- Possess enhanced intuition, Thought process, pattern solving, information storage and retrieval, and logical and philosophical structuring.
Telepathy- Allows tapping into someone's mind. Allows to read thoughts, sense nearby minds, manipulate emotions, memory, and create mental illusions. They can also knock their target out if their will isn't strong enough to resist, and take control of their body, etc.
Telekinesis- The power to move, manipulate, or otherwise interact with objects/matter with one's mind.
[Note:- All gamma-based powers are being synced with chi manipulation. Telepath and telekinesis are being enhanced.]
(new*) Reactive adaptation- The user adapts to any difficulty they face. Basically, 'What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger.'

"...Holy-" I yelled in surprise.
I more or less expected them, but not the last one. And the last one basically made me Doomsday. Though the Hulk is known for adapting to his surroundings, so it makes sense. But it also means the Hulk is as strong as the comics, not MCU.
[Yes, and you need to be ready for overpowered opponents as well. There are many on Earth right now who can destroy you easily.] Eve warned.
"Yeah, ... I know." I sighed. Just imagining a mad Thanos with infinity gauntlet gives me chills. And he beat Hulk without even using them!
"Eve, we need new training programs, Physical, intellectual, and spiritual. I cannot leave my soul's strength as it is." I said, moving towards the training area.
[Roger that.] She said, saluting in her holo-form.
*2 days later*
"... And come directly home. God knows if more of those monsters start appearing." Aunt May said.
"Yes Aunt May, I'll be careful. Bye Uncle Ben," I said and ran out to catch the bus. She has been acting overprotective ever since the Harlem incident. I could only go for training by leaving a nanoid with her. And for some reason, she kept looking at it with a frown. Women's intuition exists, anime or not. And it's greater than any spider-sense there ever was.
Other than that, my powers took a huge leap, especially the physical aspect. My Chi is also affected by Gamma energy, making my attacks a lot stronger. Plus near-unlimited stamina made me a chi-reactor as well. I could use both energies separately too, but combining them makes things easier, for smashing, that is.
The new additions for it would be absorbing all energies around me, from sunlight to extra-dimensional. This also means absorbing kinetic energy, as I can easily stop a 10-ton block shooting towards me without moving an inch back. It did hurt when I first tried, but my adaptation kicked in, making me more resilient than I already was. It really is a cheat, and that's coming from someone who has a cheat symbiont from the start.
Telepathy and telekinesis from Sterns didn't improve the intensity or range at all, but my control did shoot up. That's evident from finally mastering Vector manipulation. The strength of my Psionic constructs has been boosted as well. And finally, the biggest boon, Matter Manipulation. The last one doesn't require an explanation at all, seriously.
And finally, my Super-genius intelligence. If I thought I was smart before, this takes me to a whole new level. No wonder Sterns always acted cocky and full of pride, looking down on others. I can easily ignore those feeling due to my spiritual training at Kamar Taj, as we are taught to resist other beings from corrupting our minds.
Other than that, I'm kind of in a dilemma. The initial plan I had was to clear Hulk's name by publicizing all of Ross' dirty secrets. That would also prevent any mutant haters from springing up as well.
But there was one problem. Ross was a clean slate. In fact, the man was a perfect patriot, not anything crazy as the comics. He did have some greed to know how to make Hulk-soldiers, but he wanted to capture Banner more because he felt Banner's transformation was his fault, and having a giant monster roaming free could be harmful to others. All of them were valid reasons. I even went to the base he was currently in and tried reading his thoughts, and all this was true. He was greedy, but who isn't. Even I'm greedy for power, or I wouldn't be raiding for vibranium or hulk's blood.
I wonder what else is different in this universe. I cannot blame Ross at all now, and Shield and the military have completely suppressed any news of the incident. This also meant since I had no proof, the anti-mutant netizens were at an all-time high. Though good thing was that Shield was trying to counter this suppress this because they didn't want to break the balance between X-Men and the Brotherhood.
The only thing that kept my attention away from this mayhem was that Gwen has decided to become a hero. And I must say, her homemade costume is definitely better than anything I would have made at home if I didn't have Eve. And her decision was a bit concerning for me as well. Why? Because the Hulk incident has led to bigshots like Kingpin recruiting some mutants in their gangs as well. Plus, the weapons Ross was using to stop Hulk and Abomination were secret military tech, which has somehow leaked into the underworld. And that's a big problem.
And since Blonsky and Sterns were in Shield custody, I wouldn't be surprised if Hydra sells some samples to those who could provide the amount. After all, money was always welcome. This meant tech-based criminals like shocker or enhanced like Electro or Rhino wouldn't be far away.
So it's time for Spiderman to join the fray!
