Chapter 78 - Chapter 78: Underground, Animal Wars

First floor of the teaching building, archives room.

In the very center of the archives room, on the tiled floor, there was a huge pit.

The pit looked as if it had just been dug, with a radius of one meter, and a lot of broken stones and soil were turned up around it.

Vincent, who had changed into the hooded Spider-Man suit gifted by Gwen, displayed a streamlined muscular physique. He squatted slightly at the edge of the pit, looking down into the bottomless, mysterious interior.

He held his breath.

Vincent jumped directly into the pit.

Falling, falling, continuously free-falling... Vincent fell about twenty to thirty meters deep before he was about to touch the ground at the bottom. Above the dimly shimmering underground, about half a meter in the low air, several hard-to-see white fine lines were intertwined.

It was Gwen's web.

Vincent's mind stirred. He braced his hands on both sides of the pit to cushion his fall, landing lightly on the tough web Gwen had set up earlier.

With a faint green glow in his eyes, Vincent lay on the webs, observing the dark surroundings, and realized that the pit led to an underground sewer.

The space inside the sewer was narrow, dim, and suffocating.

Vincent didn't think too much, quickly following the web that extended endlessly towards an underground passage.

He sometimes crawled on the web like a spider, and sometimes sprinted along the bottom of the pipe like a cheetah.

The underground sewer was designed with many twists and turns and bifurcations, making it difficult to perceive direction in the sunless underground.

Vincent wasn't afraid of getting lost. Firstly, he had the web left by Gwen as a guide, and secondly, Gwen's scent was also locked by him.

However, the further Vincent advanced along the passage Gwen had taken, the more his brow furrowed. This underground pipe was like another world, with intricate passage routes, a hidden area that sunlight could never reach!

What kind of evil things would breed in such an underground area?

Vincent quickly traversed two or three kilometers in the underground sewer. Just as he suspected he was no longer in the same city area as the original school, a subtle scent of blood reached his nostrils!

It was Gwen, she was injured!

Realizing this.

Vincent's eyes suddenly turned cold, and the divine light of the Guardian Silver Bracelet shone brightly, almost unable to suppress the wildness within him!

Thump! Thump!!

Vincent's palms and feet simultaneously landed on the inclined surface of the underground pipe, and he actually sprinted wildly on the ninety-degree inclined surface, raising his already fast speed by another level!

Under the airflow generated by his high-speed movement, the water at the bottom of the pipe splashed backward!

...Vincent quickly saw that at the wide intersection of the underground pipe ahead, a two to three-meter tall humanoid lizard was confronting a slender figure several meters apart.

Spider-Woman's left calf was torn, making her movements appear somewhat inconvenient, and her back was leaning against one side of the pipe wall.

Under a highly similar Spider-Sense, Spider-Woman seemed to sense something and turned her head, looking at Vincent approaching from an adjacent pipe.

At the same time.

The humanoid lizard, with a ferocious face like a small dinosaur, seized this opportunity and pounced towards Spider-Woman!

But a figure was clearly faster than him!

"Get lost!!" Vincent, like a human cannonball, violently slammed into the humanoid lizard, sending him flying hard!!

"Careful!" But seeing this scene, Spider-Woman instead shouted a warning.

"Hmm?!"

Vincent's eyes narrowed slightly. He was in the air at the pipe intersection, almost instinctively twisting his waist, rapidly rotating his agile and slender body!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The sound of wind breaking suddenly echoed underground. Two mechanical talons, like octopus tentacles, swept past his side, plunging into the water flow in the pipe below Vincent's body, stirring up a splash!

By rotating his body to avoid the sneak attack of the mechanical tentacles, and at the moment his body turned around, Vincent also saw that in a corner of the top layer of the underground pipe, a middle-aged man wearing sunglasses was hanging there. The opponent was attached to the wall as if adsorbed by two other mechanical tentacles on his back.

Dr. Octopus?

Whoosh—

At this moment, a white web accurately hit Vincent, who was about to fall into the water.

Vincent did not resist at all, allowing the owner of the web to pull him over.

Finally reuniting with Gwen, Vincent landed on the pipe floor, reaching out to support her slender and flexible body, and quickly asked, "Are you okay?"

"Only my leg is injured, I'm still fine," Spider-Woman said, panting.

"The one with four mechanical claws, do you know him?" Vincent glanced at the middle-aged man and asked Spider-Woman.

Spider-Woman whispered, "Have you forgotten? He is Otto Gunther Octavius, a famous Dr. of physics in Washington, who visited our school to observe an event a year ago."

"Another Dr.?" Vincent suddenly remembered. Earlier, Cheetah had mentioned that the Drs. at their school were all eccentrics.

Isn't this eccentric!

First Dr. Lizard, then Dr. Octopus—

Are they opening a zoo here!

If you include the spiders and cheetahs on their side, it could be considered a big animal brawl.

With a "poof."

Dr. Lizard leaped out of the rushing water in the sewer, landing on the pipe floor on the other side, his pair of green beast eyes coldly staring at Vincent and Spider-Woman.

Squeak! Squeak!

Dr. Octopus, with four mechanical tentacles on his back, climbed by suction on the top of the pipe, quickly arriving above the humanoid lizard, and spoke with slight dissatisfaction, "You did a good job, you attracted two little spiders."

"Stop talking nonsense, let's deal with them first," Dr. Lizard said hoarsely.

"Since they've seen us and know our secret, it's naturally impossible to let them go back up," Dr. Octopus sneered, "As long as that girl doesn't come over, it's fine."

Half a year ago.

The two Drs. had been conducting some inhumane scientific experiments underground through the school's underground pipes. But just as they were making some progress—

A junior high school student came forward, stating that she knew what they were doing and would inform the school and police if they continued.

Dr. Lizard and Dr. Octopus initially tried to threaten the girl, but at that time, the student punched the ground beneath her feet.

With just one punch, the underground pipe space there still had a huge, bottomless pit!

From that day on.

Dr. Lizard and Dr. Octopus could only indefinitely suspend their experiments. It wasn't until recently, when the student stopped coming to school, that they couldn't hold back and resumed their experiments!

As for the experiments, they were undoubtedly very successful!

The result of the experiments was their current superhuman forms—

Dr. Lizard gained the ability to regenerate lost limbs and transform into a powerful humanoid lizard!

Dr. Octopus, on the other hand, merged with four mechanical claws, and his brain and the intelligent information from the mechanical tentacles formed a new nervous system!
