Marvel 16

Norman turned, pacing slowly toward the window overlooking New York City, the skyline glowing under the evening sky. Norman's mind was already racing ahead, thinking about the next phase of his experiment—the experiment that could save him or turn him into something far greater than anyone could imagine.

"Phase one is almost complete," he muttered, his eyes glinting with a dangerous ambition. "Soon, Oscorp will be known for more than just technology... it will be the birthplace of the future."

As Norman gazed out at the sprawling city of New York, the twinkling lights mirrored the ambition in his eyes. "There is also that regeneration... gene fusion experiment by Dr. Connors," he mused, a sly smile creeping across his face. "I wonder which one will make Oscorp the world's biggest company."

His thoughts drifted to the possibilities that lay ahead. If he could harness the potential of Dr. Curt Connors' research—the groundbreaking work on reptilian DNA that could regenerate limbs and even cure diseases—it could revolutionize medicine and biotechnology. The implications were staggering.

He envisioned Oscorp as a titan in the industry, dominating not just in technology but also in genetics and healing. "Imagine the headlines: 'Oscorp Unveils Breakthrough in Regeneration!'" he chuckled darkly, envisioning himself hailed as a hero rather than the shadowy figure he had become.

Norman turned back to the lab, his heart racing with excitement. "But first, I must ensure that Dr. Connors remains focused on his work. I can't afford any distractions or failures."

With a flick of his wrist, he activated the intercom, summoning his assistant. "Bring me Dr. Connors," he commanded. "It's time we discuss the future of Oscorp and how we can secure our place in history."

As he waited, Norman felt an insatiable hunger for power and success, ready to take whatever steps necessary to achieve his vision. The city below seemed to pulse with energy, and he was determined to seize it for himself.

Max and Peter returned to New York, the familiar skyline coming into view as they made their way home.

"See you tomorrow with our system online," Max said, dropping Peter off at his apartment.

"It will be awesome!" Peter replied, waving goodbye as he headed inside.

As Max drove away, he felt a mix of excitement and exhaustion from their recent adventure. Meanwhile, Peter entered his home, where Aunt May and Uncle Ben were waiting for him.

"How was your trip?" Aunt May asked, her eyes sparkling with curiosity. "Did you bring us any souvenirs?"

"It was great! I'll tell you all about it later," Peter replied, smiling as he stepped inside.

As for Max, he took a different route. Instead of heading straight home, he drove to his own newly renovated hideout, a far cry from what it used to be. The once bare walls were now filled with sleek tech and equipment for his superhero team. It was a haven for innovation, with multiple rooms designated for different purposes, from strategy planning to training sessions.

He admired the upgrades, particularly the large screen that displayed blueprints of their operations. This was his new base, a place where he could harness his powers and work with his sister, Lumi, to prepare for whatever challenges lay ahead.

Max pulled his hand out to the door, which recognized his biometric scan, the locks clicking open with a soft beep. The door slid smoothly aside, revealing a vibrant interior filled with gadgets, a training area, and a comfortable lounge for his team.

Max stepped into the expansive training area, a space that felt like a whole world unto itself, stretching out like a football field. The walls were lined with advanced training equipment, and the air buzzed with energy as he watched his sister, Lumi, spar with their friend Rize.

Both were fierce competitors, showcasing their skills in a choreographed dance of punches and kicks, their movements fluid and precise. Max couldn't help but admire how far they had all come since their first training sessions together. He felt a surge of pride watching them push each other to their limits.

In that moment, a thought struck him. He had been practicing a new skill he acquired after reaching the peak of his class, Night's Disciple—Realm Creation. It was a unique ability that allowed him to manipulate space within defined parameters, giving him the power to expand the space.

He used it once to expand the space, but now after his quest completion, now he can change more than space, as his class also advanced which resulted in advancement of realm Creation.

Max took a deep breath and focused. Visualizing the underground city he wanted to create, he began to channel his energy.

"Realm Creation!" he shouted, feeling the power pulse through him. The training area or rather whole hideout, shimmered for a moment, and the very fabric of reality bent to his will.

Before his eyes, the abandoned space transformed. The walls expanded, and the ground shifted, creating a vast underground area, the size of an small town, Max focused more as he kept pumping more energy, soon the small Town began to expand , turning into small city, Max then stopped and then he focused on newly unlocked architect aspect, he began to manipulate the whole hideout, soon wires wriggle, as plates shifted, earth rose solidified and then a small city was soon formed with many houses, parks, arenas and a central main building.

As the last echoes of his voice faded, the new realm solidified around him. It felt alive, with a vibrancy that filled him with awe.

"Whoa, Max!" Lumi exclaimed, her eyes wide as she took in the expansive cityscape. "You really did it! This is amazing!"

Rize stepped forward, excitement glinting in his eyes. "As expected of my master" She said with a fervent look on her face.

Max smiled, feeling a sense of accomplishment. "Exactly. I advanced in my class which further increased my capabilities, allowing me to not only expand space now but also architect the space inside it."

Lumi grinned, cracking her knuckles. "Let's put it to the test!"

Max nodded,"It seems you forgot the last beating" he said.

Snort!

Lumi snorted as she sad " less talk, more action" She said as various Dark deathly spears formed around her and then it attacked Max.
