A Marine Admiral in the Marvel Universe

"Okay, buddy, whatever you do, don't release the electricity, that's terrifying." Peter quickly said, "Okay, I'll go with you to find a deserted place, just don't destroy the city."

Max took a deep breath: "I know, I've been suppressing my anger..."

“Okay, let’s leave Manhattan. Maybe we can find a way to cure you. Don’t worry, buddy,” Peter Parker continued to reassure him.

“I know, I know…” Max said somewhat anxiously, “I was just too hungry, that’s why I did that.”

"Let's go, perhaps there's a cure for you in Osborn. We'll succeed..."

"Don't mention Osborn to me!" Max suddenly roared, and lightning flashed once more. Peter's expression changed drastically, and he shot out a web and jumped onto a street lamp.

"Damn Osborn, it's all because of them that I've become this wretched thing!"

boom!

The ground beneath their feet cracked instantly, and countless bolts of lightning shot out in a winding pattern.

"Shit!" Peter cried out, shooting out his webs again to escape the streetlight. The electric arcs on Max's body had already reached the streetlight, forcing him to flee.

"Osborn? Harry, what have you done?" Lucy asked疑惑地, not far away, "Why does this weirdo hate Osborn so much?"

The sound was very soft, but Max, who was not far away, still turned his gaze to Harry.

Harry's lips twitched. This woman... had really screwed him over.

“Harry Osborn, the heir of the Osborn Group… I didn’t expect to see you here…” Max twisted his neck, a cryptic smile playing on his lips.

“Max, don’t hurt anyone else!” Peter Parker shouted from behind.

Cao Gui stepped aside to block Harry behind him, a few arcs of electricity crackling in his right hand as he hung down.

Even though it's in public, if this guy tries to cause trouble, Cao Gui wouldn't mind giving him a beating.

However, the moment Max saw Cao Gui, a strong look of excitement appeared on his face, as if he had seen something fun or something delicious to buy.

Cao Gui raised an eyebrow. This guy seems to be more interested in me than Harry?

Chapter 300 Cao Gui is being targeted

“God…you look really delicious…” Max’s lips twitched slightly as he spoke affectionately to Cao Gui, revealing a smile that could barely be considered a smile.

Cao Gui immediately revealed a playful smile. This was truly interesting; since he obtained the system, this was the first person to speak to him like this.

“Come with me, and I promise you I won’t hurt anyone else, including Harry Osborn behind you,” Max said.

Since waking up, he discovered that in addition to absorbing and releasing electricity, he could also see through all objects and clearly see the amount of electricity contained within them.

The person in front of me... his body contains an indescribable amount of electricity. If I could obtain it...

Thinking of this, Max's originally timid face and worried, insecure eyes suddenly turned into a fanatical excitement and an insatiable greed.

It's like a penniless homeless man discovering a treasure trove of gold, or a starving man who hasn't eaten for days finding a table full of delicious food...

want to!

At that moment, Max felt an overwhelming possessiveness.

Upon hearing this, Cao Gui paused for a moment, then said with a half-smile, "Alright, I'll go with you, as long as you don't hurt anyone else."

“Cao…” Beth’s expression changed. Although she had witnessed Cao Gui beat up Immorton, Immorton was just sand, while this blue-skinned monster in front of her had the ability to unleash lightning…

Even knowing that her man was a superhuman, she was still very worried.

Harry's face immediately turned grim. Things had changed too quickly. He couldn't understand why this blue-skinned man would abandon him and turn his attention to Cao Gui instead.

What angered him even more was that this person was more interested in Cao Gui than he was, and even if he were willing to sacrifice himself to save his friend, that person would not agree.

"Damn it..." Harry's face turned ashen, filled with rage and fury.

Cao Gui patted him on the shoulder and laughed, "Don't worry, I'll be fine. Don't worry about me."

“How could nothing be wrong…” Harry gritted his teeth, his fists clenched and trembling, for the first time feeling hatred.

Compared to the others, Gwen was much calmer. She knew that Cao Gui possessed the ability to control lightning; not only did she know, but she had also experienced it firsthand…

However, just as Cao Gui was about to leave, a figure swung back through the air.

With a loud thud, a white spider web unfurled in the air, enveloping Max and binding him tightly.

“Max, I’m your opponent. Don’t hurt anyone else!” Peter Parker shouted, standing on the wall.

“Since things are as they were before…” Max said with a grim face, then grinned maliciously, “Then you can die!”

crackling sounds~

Electric arcs began to emerge from his body, and the spider web that was tightly binding him suddenly began to spontaneously combust, turning into several clusters of flames that burned and fell away in the blink of an eye.

With a sudden clap of his hand, a tiny arc of electricity erupted from Max's hand, meandering like a serpent and shooting towards Peter Parker on the wall.

"Damn it..." Peter pushed off with his feet, using the momentum to jump off the wall and land on a street lamp not far away.

With a loud bang, a huge hole suddenly exploded in the wall they had just left, bricks fell, and rubble flew everywhere, startling the people who were still gathered in the square watching the show, who screamed and fled the area.

Knowing something was wrong behind him, Peter didn't dare to linger. The moment he touched the streetlight, he jumped away. The next second, as expected, the streetlight exploded and shattered, with countless sparks flashing and flying, and black wires exposed in the air.

Boom boom boom!

Spider-Man Peter Parker was chased around like a mouse by Electro Max.

"Damn it, this won't work, it'll fail!" Peter felt a surge of anger, raised his hand and shot out a spider silk that stuck to the street lamp, then flew over on the silk again.

This time, however, he didn't stand on the streetlights as before. Instead, he gripped the spider silk tightly and swung high into the air, flying towards Max.

"You idiot!" Max sneered, raising his hand to unleash an electric arc at Peter.

However, at that moment, a loud whooshing sound rang out overhead. Max looked up and saw a grid manhole cover being dragged by spider silk, tracing an arc as it crashed down from the sky.

Boom!

The manhole cover slammed into Max's forehead, sending sparks flying everywhere. Max swayed as if he had been drinking, and then collapsed to the ground.

Clearly, this was no small matter.

"Hey buddy, are you alright?" Peter called out worriedly. "I didn't mean to, but you've been relentlessly pursuing me, so I had no choice but to do this."

Cao Gui raised an eyebrow. Although this kid was a bit of a loser, his adaptability during battle was quite good, and he had some ideas.

However, Electro is not so easy to deal with. Lightning is one of the most powerful destructive forces in nature. Although Electro's electricity is not as strong as lightning in nature, Peter has no way to deal with the damage caused by lightning in his current pajamas.

"You bastard, you bastard..." Max gritted his teeth, his face flashing with shock and anger, and layers of blue arcs of electricity crackling around his body:

"I thought you would be nice to me, I thought we could become friends, but you, like everyone else, didn't take me seriously!"

“Max, no!” Peter cried. “We’re friends… no, I mean we can be friends, but you have to control your abilities and not hurt anyone else…”

But before he could finish speaking, layers of light flowed beneath Max's blue skin, and the blue electric light on his face became even brighter. In comparison, Cao Gui could even see the subtle black lines on his face.

Those are capillaries. The lightning within the body became increasingly apparent, highlighting the opaque blood vessels and forming these patterns.

The electric man's energy was growing larger and larger. Cao Gui's eyes flickered as he thought to himself that he didn't want to make a move. There were too many people, and it would be easy to expose his identity. Last time, Riot and Venom, who knew his identity, were both dead, without even a trace left.

"Gwen, you take Beth and the others first, I'll come find you later," Cao Gui said softly.

“…Okay!” Gwen nodded and replied in a deep voice after glancing at Electro and Pajama Baby, who were still facing off in the arena.

Lucy left with the two girls, and before leaving, she also pulled Harry along. She had accidentally revealed his identity earlier, and by taking him with her, she was saving his life.

In the arena, Mike, surrounded by arcs of electricity, slowly floated up from the ground, his two bare hands crackling with electricity.

"Spider-Man, you betrayed me, you deserve to die!"

Max gritted his teeth, pushed with both palms, and countless winding bolts of lightning erupted from his hands.

boom!

A burst of fire suddenly erupted in the plaza below, and a powerful shockwave spread outwards, continuously impacting the surrounding area. Peter scrambled to avoid the attack.

After the battle, he knew that he couldn't harm Max on his own and had to rely on something else.

Peter dodged Max's attacks while searching for something to use against Max.

Soon, a fire hydrant came into his view, and Peter's face lit up with joy as he quickly ran over.

"Spider-Man, you can't escape!" Max followed without fear.

However, Peter raised his hand and shot out a spider silk thread that stuck to the fire hydrant. With a sudden pull, a jet of water shot into the air. Max, who hadn't reacted yet, was hit squarely by the water jet and fell from the sky with a thud.

“Max, are you alright?” Peter called out from a distance. “I’m sorry, this is the only way I can calm you down.”

Max was silent for a few seconds, then said fiercely, "Spider-Man... I'll remember you. I'll find you, and you too, I'll be back."

As he spoke, he pointed to Cao Gui, who was standing to one side.

After saying that, he raised his hand and grabbed an electric wire, ignoring the sparks flying from it. Starting from his arm, his whole body gradually turned into a transparent stream of light, and slowly "elementalized" and disappeared along the electric wire in his hand.

Cao Gui touched his nose, feeling somewhat annoyed. He hadn't expected to be targeted for no reason.

Since that's the case, let's find him and see just how capable this so-called "Electric Man" really is. Hopefully... he's tough enough not to die so easily.

Chapter 301 Have you ever been kicked by lightning?

In the New Jersey villa, Cao Gui drove his car slowly into his parking space and brought Gwen back into the house.

But as soon as she entered the room, Gwen picked up her laptop: "Alice, help me find areas near New York where there are circuit anomalies."

"Madam, I do not have control over the Eastern Power Hub. If we are to forcibly breach the firewall, someone will need to connect me to their local area network."

Gwen frowned, almost forgetting about it: "Honey, can I use your SHIELD access privileges for a bit?"

“Okay.” Cao Gui nodded and gave Gwen the access granted by Sitwell. Soon, the artificial intelligence Alice entered the Eastern Power Hub Network and found the information Gwen needed.

“Honey, we found it. It’s in Nassau County,” Gwen said. “Mineola there experienced a major blackout an hour ago, but the problem is there’s a power plant right outside this area.”

"They actually went to such a far place?" Cao Gui frowned slightly. Nassau County is actually on Long Island and is a county under the jurisdiction of New York. For Manhattan, that place is almost like a remote and impoverished area.

"Then I'll go over there, you stay at home."

"Uh-huh"

With a crackling sound, Cao Gui's figure transformed into lightning and disappeared, leaving only a faint smell of burning in the air and a wisp of slowly fading electric arc.
