Chapter 72 - Chapter 72: Give Iron Man a slap in the face

At this moment, Green Goblin had completely lost his reason.

The reptilian serum had already burned away his mind.

Maguire looked at the giant lizard before him with a mocking grin.

"Really? That's it? I thought you'd turn into something impressive. Turns out… just this?"

The monstrous claw of Lizard Osborn slashed down at him.

Maguire's spider-sense screamed a warning, and for the first time his heart sank.

"So this big lizard really does have enough strength to threaten me, huh? Fine then—let's dance!"

He swung his hammer upward to meet the claw.

BOOM!

The impact thundered through the sky, a shockwave rolling out, blasting dust and debris in every direction. Cars trembled violently even in the distance.

Garfield, Natasha, and the others stood grim-faced as they watched.

"Unbelievable… that monster is actually this strong…"

As the smoke cleared, two figures emerged.

Maguire, unfazed, sneered at Osborn.

The Lizard's massive claw was a bloody mess, mangled by the overwhelming force.

But in the next instant, his arm regenerated in the blink of an eye.

Within seconds, it was whole again.

The beast lunged once more, striking with savage speed.

Maguire leapt away, soaring into the air. Venom morphed on his arm again, forming an enormous two-meter war hammer, its base trailing thick black webbing like a giant flail.

He swung it down toward Osborn's head.

The roar of the impact rattled eardrums, a sandstorm of dust engulfing the battlefield.

When it cleared, a crater dozens of meters wide yawned in the earth, filled with blood and gore.

Lizard Osborn's body was utterly annihilated.

Maguire looked down into the pit with disdain.

"That's it? I gave you a chance, and you couldn't even last. Pathetic."

He turned, swaggering toward Iron Man and the others, cigar between his fingers, his arrogant gait radiating untouchable dominance.

Everyone who looked at him was stunned.

"So strong… stronger than anything we've ever seen…"

Maguire stepped right up to Iron Man.

"What's he trying to do?" they whispered.

Iron Man, baffled, greeted him politely:

"Hello—"

SLAP!

A massive backhand sent Tony Stark flying dozens of meters. He wasn't hurt, but the sight left Garfield, Holland, and Natasha completely dumbfounded.

"What the hell was that? Why did he smack Tony Stark?"

"Does he have a grudge against him?"

Maguire took a drag from his cigar, smoke curling from his lips.

"Didn't you hear me? These small fries are mine. Who said he could interfere?"

Only then did the others realize—it was because Iron Man had fired a repulsor blast earlier.

They felt a chill crawl down their spines.

"We must never cross him… he's pure evil."

In the distance, Iron Man staggered to his feet, muttering in confusion.

"What the hell? Do I have some beef with him? Why did he slap me out of nowhere?"

Then, in Maguire's mind, the system's voice chimed:

[Congratulations, host, you've gained 500 Bully Points. Villain bonus: 600 points. Current Bully Value: 1200. Host has exceeded Bully Points for the first time. Advanced Lottery unlocked. Prize pool: B-rank to S-rank items. Each draw costs 200 Bully Points.]

Maguire's heart surged with excitement.

"Finally, no longer the poor man! This new lottery mode—very satisfying."

He glanced back at Garfield and the others, smirking.

"Go home and sleep, sweet dreams."

With a leap, he shot a web and vanished into the night.

The coppery scent of blood still choked the air, leaving the survivors dazed, as if they had just awakened from a nightmare.

An entire army of Lizardmen, wiped out in mere minutes by this one man.

The next day, headlines across America exploded with the same story:

The savior of New York.

The invincible powerhouse.

The brutal protector.

The blood demon from hell.

A so-called "Evil Hero."

Every name carried the same truth—

he was no "Spider-Man" or "Dark Knight."

No one could call him a "man" of justice.

He was too savage, too terrifying.

And so, the people gave him one title:

Hellblood Demon.

Not an angel, not a god.

But pure terror, born from hell.
