Chapter 4 - 4

Nathan Hawke was intently listening to The Invisible Man, who was undergoing a Superhero persona design, answer a series of analytical questions. This was a method to determine a Superhero's image through Q&A.

Outside the room, a group of analysts listened carefully to The Invisible Man's answers, constantly taking notes.

"Please tell me, among a duckling, a gosling, a chick, and a fish, which one is different and why?" the interviewer asked.

"The chick," The Invisible Man replied without hesitation.

"Why do you think the chick is different among these animals?" the interviewer asked with wide, surprised eyes.

"Because chicks can't swim." The Invisible Man's answer stunned everyone present.

The analysts outside the room heard this and their breathing suddenly paused.

They also understood why they had been invited by Nathan Hawke—because the man inside had very "active" ideas.

When everyone had left, The Invisible Man happily ran out.

"Boss, hello!" he said with a smile to Nathan Hawke.

Looking at the grinning Invisible Man,

Nathan Hawke felt that this Invisible Man was completely different from The Invisible Man he had seen in "The Boys."

Speaking of which,

If The Invisible Man knew, he would definitely say,

Damn it, everyone in The Seven is a talent, and their speech is both vulgar and violent.

Especially that Homelander, The Invisible Man's legs would go weak whenever he saw him.

It's not like here; although Nathan Hawke and Wesker clearly looked like formidable people,

At least they weren't like Homelander, unpredictable. In front of him, his life was not his own.

So, after a few days of interaction, The Invisible Man gradually let go of the sense of crisis he felt from being in a new and unfamiliar place.

"Get more prepared. Your hero name will still be The Invisible Man. At the same time, I will prepare a set of equipment for you to make your invisibility more complete."

Ending the conversation,

Nathan Hawke went to an office with a huge glass window, through which he could see what was happening in the room opposite.

Wesker had already brought over some researchers from Stark Industries, but some remained due to Obadiah Stane.

Obadiah Stane promised them he would resolve the matter, and Stark Industries' high salaries were indeed tempting.

Nathan Hawke watched them sign in the room, secretly feeling fortunate. These people would be the researchers who would invent weapons for Superheroes.

Next, he went to a Laboratory deep underground at Umbrella Corporation, where viruses were being researched.

Nathan Hawke watched their busy figures without disturbing them and walked directly to the head of the Laboratory.

"How's the research coming along?"

A Scientist wearing reading glasses didn't look up at Nathan Hawke but shook his head while looking at the data displayed on the screen.

"This virus carries excellent high infectivity and lethality, which will greatly disrupt and damage the genes within the species' bodies."

"Moreover," the elderly Scientist said with a sense of trepidation, "these viruses are weapons."

Indeed, a sharp glint flashed in the Scientist's eyes.

"If that's the case, I suggest…"

"Death row inmates."

Seeing no reaction from Nathan Hawke, the Scientist continued, "Based on feedback from implantation into primates and other organisms, this virus will cause some organisms to mutate into bio-engineered monsters, simultaneously possessing high infectivity and extreme danger."

Speaking of which, he inexplicably thought of his other superior, Wesker.

"Ask Wesker, he'll make the decision," Nathan Hawke said after a moment of thought.

"Alright."

The reverse engineering of the virus, though slow, was proceeding in an orderly fashion.

They just needed to wait for the good news to come.

Returning to Hawk Group,

Listening to the intelligence from Andre.

"Saw a balding man with Tony Stark's… is she his girlfriend? They were both in a hurry. Is it about to start?"

Andre, who was assigned to monitor the situation, immediately flew back after seeing a similar situation as instructed by Nathan Hawke.

"You weren't discovered, were you?"

"No, don't worry," Andre said, raising an eyebrow.

Nathan Hawke simply rested his hands on his chin, staring intently at him.

Andre immediately gave in, "Uh, alright. I almost got discovered." He quickly held up both hands in front of him and continued, "But, but… I wasn't discovered. Don't worry."

"Tonight is your official debut as a Superhero. I'm very much looking forward to your performance."

"Of course, don't worry," Andre assured Nathan Hawke.

"Then let's begin."

The team was in position, Andre changed his clothes and set off first.

Nathan Hawke and The Invisible Man changed their clothes and prepared to quietly observe this "Marvel" opening show from a certain location… Everything happened just as it was written in the script.

Bang!

The tragic and arrogant Tony Stark was thrown, and the Iron Man Suit's faceplate fell off to the side.

"Sir, armor damage has dropped to 15%."

"Shit!"

Obadiah Stane, driving the Iron Monger, walked up and looked down at him.

Honestly, he had to admit he really liked this view.

Obadiah Stane inside the Iron Monger showed disdain, controlling the Iron Monger's arm to grab the immobilized Iron Man Suit.

After lifting it high, he squeezed Tony Stark's throat with both hands.

A small Energy Cannon shot hit the Iron Monger.

"Ugh…" Tony Stark showed an awkward and pained expression.

"Goodbye, Tony. My Stane Industries will inherit your will." Obadiah Stane inside the Iron Monger could no longer contain his joy and laughed.

"So, am I late?"

A sudden voice came.

Obadiah Stane froze, then turned to look at the source of the sound.

"Super V?"

Obadiah Stane frowned, flung Tony Stark with his right hand, and aimed at Andre, who was playing the Superhero Super V.

"Die, kid."

The right arm's six-barrel rotary machine gun began to fire.

Da da da da da da da da ~

Andre dodged left and right, looking quite dashing in the air.

He accelerated and directly circled behind Obadiah Stane.

"Actually, killing you is quite easy," Andre muttered in the sky.

"But this is my debut, so it has to be cool."

He raised his hand and waved, and a Psychokinesis blast slammed into the Iron Monger's left arm.

Crack!

The Iron Monger's left arm bent and shattered, while Tony Stark was thrown and lay motionless on the ground.

"Go!"

Andre roared, and a Psychokinesis Impact aimed at the Iron Monger on the ground.

Bang!

Parts of the Iron Monger's surface armor were directly shattered.

Rumble.

Pressure, like wave after wave, came.

The ground was violently impacted, shattering like glass, revealing cracks. The cracks continuously expanded, and gravel scattered around, like a long fissure cutting through the ground. Heavy dust filled the air, and the entire environment appeared extremely treacherous.

"Wow~"

Andre raised an eyebrow, but at this moment, his entire face was covered by a mask, making his expression unclear.

The Iron Monger raised its creaking right hand, and the six gun barrels continued to spin.

Click, click, click~

The jamming sound came intermittently, and the Iron Monger's right arm directly broke off, smashing onto the ground.

Andre appeared behind the Iron Monger, placing his right hand on the Iron Monger's armor.

With a movement of Psychokinesis, an invisible ripple instantly erupted and spread from his right hand.

Obadiah Stane inside the Iron Monger was directly stunned into unconsciousness.

"Next is to drag him out, then the media will arrive, and tomorrow will be Super V's headline."

As soon as he thought of becoming a worshipped Superhero like a big star, Andre's mouth couldn't help but curve upwards.

He dragged Obadiah Stane out of the Iron Monger armor.

And at this moment, the news workers who had been waiting appeared one after another, flashing their cameras at Andre.

Andre held the unconscious Obadiah Stane in one hand and waved to the media friends in front with the other.

"Hey, Super V, I remember you," Tony Stark, lying nearby, shouted loudly.

Seeing the media friends arrive, he couldn't play dead; he was the protagonist, the protagonist!

"Wow, it's Tony Stark. But why is he here?" The news workers looked over in surprise.

Coulson, watching this scene from a distance, had a livid expression.

A roar came from the phone: "Didn't we cordon off the area? Why are there still media coming in? Clear them out!"

Coulson quickly ran up; he didn't want to be exiled to Siberia.

"Excuse me, excuse me. Government business."

The arriving Agents immediately began to drive away the news workers.

"Oh, shit. That's why I hate them." A news worker looked at the Agents with resentment in his eyes.

Coulson immediately came to Andre's side.

Coulson pulled out his ID and said, "Hey, Super V, nice to meet you. I…" Before he could finish, Andre flew directly into the sky.

Only the continuous sounds of cameras clicking remained in Coulson's ears, telling him. Super V was real, he really could fly.

At the same time, Nathan Hawke sensed that the fluctuations of his summoned villain were getting stronger and stronger.

"The Invisible Man, let's go."

"Oh, okay, Boss." The Invisible Man took one last look at the scene, then turned and left.

They walked in silence.

They headed to the park established by Hawk Group and arrived at the empty Battle Laboratory.

The Invisible Man stood quietly behind Nathan Hawke, his eyes wide, not daring to miss a single detail.

He had already vaguely sensed what Nathan Hawke wanted to do.

The light of the hexagram illuminated this space.

Streaks of snake-like electric light crackled and buzzed.

"Where is this?" The newcomer was covered in white electric light.

Energy form? Nathan Hawke narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing the person in front of him.

"I am Electro King. Where is Spider-Man? Where is Spider-Man?" Seemingly realizing that Nathan Hawke was not to be trifled with, Max Dillon simply pointed at Nathan Hawke and questioned him.

Then.

"Ah! My power?" Max Dillon was horrified to find himself slowly returning to his original appearance.

Hadn't he turned his body into energy?

How could this be!

Looking at the man screaming in terror that it was impossible,

Nathan Hawke finally knew who he had summoned.

Electro King from Ultimate Spider-Man, Max Dillon.
