Chapter - 14: Attack by Terrorists

Now when he sensed his genetic improvement, Adrian could distinctly feel a new capability emerging. He could use air vibrations, much like a spider, to gather information from his surroundings, allowing him to perceive everything around him and anticipate danger in advance.

"Wow, with this new ability, if I were to create a web launcher like Peter Parker's, I could definitely become an alternate version of Spider-Man," Adrian mused to himself as he contemplated the possibilities.

Based on his understanding of Spider-Man's initial abilities, it includes spider-sensing, electrostatic climbing, and a web shooter with fifteen times the power of Spider-Man's.

Now Adrian possesses spider-sensing and bio-static abilities, and in terms of strength, even if he can't yet exert 400 times more power, he is stronger than fifteen times that of Spider-Man. So, with a spider-web launcher or any other related equipment, he can be considered an alternate version of Spider-Man.

In his memory, the Oscorp Group specializes in developing a particular kind of spider silk. With the right instruments, this spider silk can be synthesized to create a spider web launcher.

As long as Adrian obtains the technology of spider silk, he can either make the launcher himself or ask his resourceful brother Tony to create it.

But in addition to making a spider-web launcher, there is actually another option, which is to extract the spider's web-producing ability.

'There were 3700 units of bio-energy. 2000 units used for the two extraction, leaving 1700 remaining. Right now, I'm not interested in the spider-web ability, so I should save the remaining units for future battles.' After Adrian's thoughts turned quickly, he did not continue to choose to extract genes but used the ability to perceive and sense the surrounding situation.

Under such circumstances, after ten minutes, Adrian suddenly sprang into action. He swiftly retrieved a communication earplug from his pocket and placed it on his ear, saying, "Everyone, pay attention and prepare for battle."

Tony, who was next to him, was startled after hearing his order.

"Battle? What battle?" Tony was quite perplexed, as he genuinely didn't know what Adrian was planning.

As for the communication earplug, it was prepared by Adrian from the very beginning.

Every security personnel has one in their ear.

Although Tony didn't understand what was happening, he was sitting in a military vehicle with Adrian. The black-suited men driving the car and in the co-pilot seat immediately focused. The co-pilot quickly took out a submachine gun from under his clothes, while the men in the military vehicle ahead swiftly pulled out a box and began assembling sniper rifles, rocket launchers, and other weapons at an impressive speed.

At Adrian's request, the 16 black-suited men were fully armed, each wearing bulletproof vests under their clothes. Even Adrian wore one. Initially, Tony didn't want to wear a vest, but he complied under Adrian's insistence.

Adrian did not answer Tony at all. Instead, after the car started moving again, his pupils violently contracted, and he used the communicator to loudly alert, "At eleven o'clock, there is an attack. Be careful of incoming shells."

"I said, Adrian, what are you doing right now?" Tony asked, bewildered.

Tony listened to the order and was speechless again. He couldn't help but ask, but as he spoke, he glanced out the window. His pupils contracted and he cursed, "Shit."

When he looked out the window, he saw a shell heading straight towards the car. As soon as Tony noticed the shell, the driver, acting on Adrian's warning, sharply turned the steering wheel, narrowly evading the attack.

Boom.....

Then a deafening explosion sounded as the shell hit the spot the car had just vacated.

However, despite the initial shell attack, the bombardment continued relentlessly.

"Get out and take cover behind the rocks! The car is too big of a target," Adrian commanded.

Almost as soon as Adrian's words fell, Tony leapt out of the car door. He had spotted another incoming shell, and staying in the car would surely mean getting hit.

When Tony jumped out, Adrian followed suit. The black-suited men in the car also didn't hesitate and leapt out. Just after they jumped, the car exploded behind them.

After jumping off the car and hiding behind a rock pile, Tony felt quite speechless. He cast a complicated look at Adrian before taking out his phone and snapping a selfie, making a peace sign with his fingers.

Despite the perilous situation, Tony couldn't resist capturing the moment on his phone and sending it to his social media accounts.

As Tony snapped a photo, his gaze quickly shifted, catching sight of a bomb nestled on the ground not far away.

In the heat of the moment, Tony geared up to rush forward and dispose of the bomb.

As Tony geared up to tackle the bomb, Adrian shot him a glance and swiftly moved to intercept him, diverting his path.

Boom....

As soon as he stepped out, the bomb detonated, sending rocks flying and dust billowing in all directions.

"Thank you, Adrian, you saved my life. " Tony expressed his gratitude sincerely as they both narrowly escaped the explosion.

"If you kicked the bucket, who's going to pay me?" Adrian retorted with mincing words.

"And seriously, taking photos in the middle of danger? Are you more concerned about your social media feed than your life? At least animals have better survival instincts than you! Also, do you still think my security arrangements are excessive?"

"Haha, yeah, the weather's just perfect today," Tony replied casually.

"Yeah, yeah, sister ," Adrian retorted, shooting Tony a look.

"You don't know Howard. He only made two lives: you and me. There's no sister at all. Of course, I don't rule out the possibility that Howard might have an illegitimate daughter somewhere," Tony added with a smirk.

"…."

Silently glancing at Tony, Adrian then used his earplug to communicate with the black-suited men rushing to their side. "Don't worry about me and Tony. Be careful of the enemy approaching. Prepare to fight back," he ordered.
