Chapter 488 Unexpected Victory

In the stands.

"This Ralph is amazing," Li Lin said, "He manipulated his own body to block the Phantom Cat for a moment, making it temporarily visible."

"Then use the top made of different materials to transform into a snake to block the surrounding space, targeting the weakness of [Phantom Cat] that its ability is to change itself, not the material."

"And use the toxins stored in advance as a means to defeat the enemy."

"If Phantom Cat hadn't used his ability to treat the poisoned palm as a part of his body and cut it off, leaving it inside Ralph, Ralph would have won."

Ron consoled himself, "It was my poison that killed Ralph, so I win if we round it up."

Peter took a deep breath. He was still a little uncomfortable with killing people, even though the person would not die.

Fortunately, his opponent is Sam, an opponent with super strong defense who allows him to let go and exert his full strength.

He no longer had to worry about accidentally punching through his opponent's body or having spider silk strangle his opponent's waist.

"The next competition is between two S-rank physical enhancement hero trainees. One has arms strong enough to stop a high-speed train, and the other has unmatched defense and is indestructible. He can withstand 1100 atmospheres of pressure and remain intact even if he descends to the Mariana Trench."

"【Powerful Spider】 vs 【Mighty King Kong】!"

"I'm still used to people calling me Spider-Man." Peter muttered on the court, then retracted his gaze and looked at his opponent - Sam Warridan, the younger brother of [Golden Boy].

Sam's eyes returned.

The meeting of eyes is the meeting of fists.

Rumble!
Thunder exploded suddenly.

It was like two meteors colliding.

Two figures flew backwards and hit the electromagnetic shield, causing the entire venue to shake slightly.

It was clearly just a collision between bodies, fists and bodies, but it caused the air to explode and the ground to shake.

The two people who were not extremely fast, however, with their considerable strength, left holes on the metal ground and turned into two afterimages.

However, the two men were intact, without even a bruise, which made the situation seem like a lot of noise but little results.

In the eyes of some superhumans with superhuman insight, the fight between the two was too hard-hitting, with punches coming from both sides, with almost no dodging or moves, which only showed extraordinary strength and defense.

To the audience who had done their homework in advance, it seemed very strange.

Obviously, Peter has sharper reactions and can shoot very resilient spider silk, but he hardly shows any of these when he faces off against Sam, who is weaker than him but has better defense.

This is more like two superhumans with the same abilities doing a fighting show.

As a contestant, Sam could naturally see that his opponent was not using his full strength.

He used all his strength, but seemed to have abandoned his extraordinary perception, superior agility, and his own spider silk spraying ability.

"Why not use your full strength?" Sam, who fell into a deep pit for the nth time and got up intact, gasped.

"Oh, it looks like it's time." Peter looked at Sam's heaving chest.

"what?"

"It's time to use the spider silk."

"what?"

Puff, puff.

The tiny wrist sprayed out a milky white liquid that was hundreds of times larger than its own volume, which expanded in the air into a spider web.

Sam's eyes finally turned milky white.

The curly-haired boy's body was entangled in milky white spider silk, and only a huge silkworm pupa remained in the pit.

In the stands.

Kate wondered, "Why didn't Parker just use spider silk from the beginning?"

"In order to find out Sam's data," Li Lin said, "and to prepare enough protein fluid for the glands in his wrists. Although Sam's strength is weaker than his defense, his strength is almost at S level."

"The name of the hero [Mighty King Kong] was not chosen randomly."

"Even though Peter's silk was reinforced with [Compound No. 5], he still had doubts about whether it could restrain Sam."

"And Sam is not a dead thing that would leave Peter to tie him up."

"Peter first has to use up Sam's energy to resist, and then he can use the spider web to bind Sam."

Kate suddenly realized, "No wonder Parker hardly dodges even though he has a stronger reaction ability. It turns out he does it to save his energy."

"And even if his opponent Sam Parker is like this, he still has to go all out to keep up with Parker's pace, which is more physically demanding."

"So Sam should have waited for the opportunity, relied on his superior defense, tried not to move, and dodged with all his strength when Parker used the spider web?"

Li Lin nodded, "But the chances of winning are slim."

"He's not as strong or as agile as the other one, and his own abilities are so modest. If it weren't for his outstanding defense, he wouldn't have been able to compete with Peter in the first place."

"There is still a gap between S-class."

It's not that Kate doesn't understand this, and her boyfriend is the best proof of this argument.

Other S-class people are just mortals in front of him.

But soon, it became more apparent to her.

Inside the venue, a dazzling flash of lightning appeared.

Invisible Woman Susan appears with her heart pierced.

Opposite her, her body had turned metal, and her right arm was still flashing with arcs of electricity.

After just a brief encounter, the Invisible Woman's position was discovered, and the protective shield that protected her from the fist of [Mighty King Kong] was pierced, along with her own body.

"This is simply incredible!"

After hearing the referee's voice, Susan, who was using a force field to replace her heart to maintain blood supply, finally felt dizzy.

As a contestant, she was the more incredible target.

Her magnetic field signals should have been well shielded, and she dodged in time, but the plasma bullet actually turned.

The third round ended just like that.

[Polar Man] Andre Anderson, [Phantom] Kitty Pryde, [Magneto] Eric Lensherr, [The Spider] Peter Parker, and [Iceman] Loki Odinson successfully advanced to the fourth round.

In the lounge.

Susan raised her own question.

Magneto was silent for a moment before saying, "Silly girl, a dot of ink on white paper will be more obvious."

"The plasma cannon can turn because it is guided by magnetic lines of force, which is the same principle that allows me to fly at high speeds."

"Science, if I had read more in the past, Charles might not have..."

"It's all over." Phantom Cat comforted. These days, she had a new understanding of this radical mutant leader from a parallel universe.

Magneto is not just a terrorist or a criminal against humanity.

Everything he does is for the benefit of mutants, just radical.

Just like the professor (referring to Professor X) is very conservative.

Only by the two of them working together to make decisions can they better lead the mutants, otherwise they will only lead the race in a worse direction.

"Yes, it's all over." Magneto said, "I hope I don't have to share it with you again this time."

He doesn't want to experience the previous experience of glaring at each other on the field, where you can't hit me and I can't hit you.

"The list is out." Loki reminded.

First match: [Polar Man] vs. [Magneto]

Andre:
I'm just a ghost like this, I'd better surrender.

For abilities of the same type, the level difference is more obvious.

Game 2: [Strong Spider] vs [Iceman]

Peter took a deep breath. It was over. It would have been great if Loki hadn't used his powers and fought him hand-to-hand.

After taking [Compound No. 5], he also gained the omnipotent [Bio-Force Field], and spider-web-like nerve tissue appeared under the skin, which could enhance his reaction and defense.

But his defense is more against physical impact.

Low temperatures and severe cold are not included at all.

How can the included B-level [Bio-Force Field] resist the S-level cryogenic ability?

As a teammate, he also knew that Loki's low temperature was not only due to the ability of [Compound No. 5], but also to his frost giant bloodline.

They are both a combination of science and magic, but they are much more powerful than him.

His [Spider Totem] is still too scientific. It would be nice to give him some magic power.

If it really doesn't work, it would be nice to have a bye like Katie.

The only thing to be thankful for is that he is in the second game and still has time to prepare. What the hell!
Seeing Andre raising his hands in surrender on the field, Peter just wanted to smash his head with one punch.

The referee was also surprised. "Well, then, [Magneto] Eric Lansherr wins. Now, please welcome the next two players!"

Then there is only one way.

Cut off Loki's head before he uses his power!
As an S-level physical ability user, Peter has this confidence.

then
In the eyes of the audience, such a strange scene appeared.

The referee just called start.

Peter first shot a large spider web in Loki's direction to block Loki's vision.

Then he raised his fist and rushed forward.

Before most of the audience could react, Peter appeared 5 meters away from Loki.

Loki himself even felt the wind from the fist, and his already thin hair was blown close to his scalp.

creak-

The entire stadium instantly turned into frozen ground.

4 m.

Peter was already covered in frost.

3 m.

Peter activated the [bioforce field] and broke free from the ice shell on his body.

2 m.

Peter's blood flow began to slow.

1 m.

Peter's fist weakly hit the ice wall that appeared out of nowhere.

Peter, along with his red and blue combat suit, began to freeze.

Behind the ice wall, Loki, who was frightened out of his true form as a frost giant, gasped loudly as he looked at the fist so close to him. It was just a little bit, just a little bit, and his neck was almost broken.

"The winner is [Iceman] Loki Odinson!"

In the stands.

"I thought there was a sixth round, but it turns out it's Loki and Katie first," the Invisible Woman was a little surprised, "and the final winner and Eric."

"If Peter hadn't done this, Katie would have definitely been the winner," Ron said. "She could have just sneaked underground and launched a surprise attack."

"But now Rocky will probably turn the arena into a world of ice and snow as soon as the game starts."

"Ice is a state of water," Magneto said, "The human body is made up of about 70% water. This medium is easy for Katie to travel through with her abilities, and she won't even be affected by low temperatures."

"It depends on how long Rocky can stay sharp and whether Katie can seize the opportunity."

Li Lin raised his eyebrows when he heard what Magneto said.

This is indeed very scientific.

Very logical.

But this is not magic.

Frost giants' bodies remain at the same low temperature as their surroundings, and the same is true of their internal organs.

Unless Katie realizes this, the hand that has entered Loki's body will not withdraw while it is in a fused state with his body, and will leave his body with his heart.

Otherwise, Katie would turn into an ice sculpture the moment she appeared.

Loki will also die because of foreign objects entering his heart.

Then Magneto will win without a fight.

Li Lin looked at the stadium with interest. In the ice-covered field, Loki stood on an icicle as thick as his arms, staring at the ground below.

"Smart move." Kate exclaimed, "Phantom Cat cannot change its shape when it melts into an object. With icicles of this thickness, it will be very obvious once it appears."

"But the snow and wind are too strong," Li Lin reminded, "It's like a natural camouflage."

After an hour of long tug of war.

Li Lin suddenly said again, "Just like this."

In the snow and wind, Katie appeared out of nowhere from Loki's left side, like a ghost.

Her arm had reached out, touching what she thought was a warm heart.

"What a pity." Li Lin stood up.

"The game isn't over yet!" Kate said.

"No, it's over." Li Lin took Kate and soared into the sky, disappearing in the venue.

Inside the venue.

Magneto, who was originally preparing to fight Katie, had a confused look on his face.

I couldn't stop looking at the ice sculpture Katie and Loki who was pierced through the heart by it and died.

"I won, just like that?"

"This is so dramatic." Ron exclaimed.

In the remote Amazon forest.

"It's so dramatic." Starlight also sighed, "It's just like when Storm was captured and we weren't ready to take action, the son of Soldier Boy was ready to rescue us."

"Have you contacted this kid?" [Tek Knight] said, "He might be our hope. My informant in the New York Police Department told me that the flesh and blood of the parahumans he killed evaporated directly at the parts where they were shot."

"You have to know that among them there is also the A-level superhuman Iron Man."

"This is just the heat vision he released subconsciously."

"According to the theory summarized by Vogelbaum, the abilities displayed upon first awakening will only reach 30%-40% of their peak value, and will be adjusted downwards depending on the age of the awakening superhuman."

"And Ryan Akers is only eight years old."

"That means his heat vision, if it reaches its peak, can even kill [Soldier Boy]."

"If my father dies, there is no reason for [Homelander] not to wake up."

[Starlight] shook his head. "It is more reliable to kill [Psychological Control] and wake up [Homelander]. Now we just found an extremely lethal weapon - the venom of [Poison Spider]."

"In the academy competition, two S-classes died from this weapon."

"Not to mention the [Psychological Control] whose physical strength is only B-level."

"[Dr. Snake] is also S-class?" [Tek Knight] was surprised, "But in terms of physical strength, he and [Golden Boy] are only B-class and A-class respectively."

"Super high school teams are very strictly controlled. We are not [Black]."
