Chapter 666

"Spider-Man? Spider—Peter Parker?" Felicia Hardy seemed to think of something.

She went to the computer, accessed the company network, and used her authorization to check the surveillance of the spider breeding room.

Soon, a figure appeared on the monitor: it was Peter Parker.

"According to the timeline, Peter Parker came here after leaving the lab."

"Look here, there's a spider on the back of his neck! He was bitten by a spider!"

"No coma, no abnormal reaction."

"He left."

Watching Peter Parker, with an indignant look on his face, leave Stark Tower on the monitor, a faint, cold smirk curled the corners of Su Quan's mouth.

Whether it was Professor Curt Connors or Peter Parker, they were all damn traitors. It should have been a situation of working together, but in the end, one turned into the Lizard Professor and the other into Spider-Man.

That would be fine; after all, Professor Curt Connors would have been injected with the serum after the experiment succeeded, and the deal with Peter Parker included making him Spider-Man.

But—what I give you, you can take; what I don't give you, you cannot snatch!

The actions of Professor Curt Connors and Peter Parker were no different from snatching!

"I will send people to catch them back immediately."

Norman Osborn spoke in a deep voice. Whether it was the Lizard Professor or Spider-Man, they were all Osborn—no, they were all the Master's assets. No matter the cost, they had to be retrieved for the Master!

Su Quan shook his head: "This is a project Felicia is responsible for, so she will handle it. You handle another matter for me."

"Please speak."

"Dr. Morbius at Horizon Labs is researching a project regarding blood. I want to invest in this project, and I want it done fast!"

Norman Osborn had heard of this man, Morbius, the developer of artificial blood and a Nobel Prize winner; there must be many people investing in him and his project.

However, he was the CEO of Osborn Enterprises, after all; he still had that much confidence.

"Before noon tomorrow, you will definitely hear good news!"

"Good."

Norman Osborn waited for a moment, and seeing that Su Quan had no other instructions, he left the laboratory with Harry Osborn and Ade.

"Let's go too."

Su Quan and Felicia Hardy left the company and returned to their residence.

Silk and Spider-Girl had gone to San Francisco and hadn't returned yet, so Su Quan kept Felicia Hardy behind.

Keeping her wasn't because the night was long and she couldn't sleep—well, at least that wasn't the main reason.

"You don't need to worry about Peter Parker, but the Lizard Professor, that is, Professor Curt Connors, you must catch him back."

"Yes."

Although Felicia Hardy felt it was tricky, she didn't shirk the responsibility; after all, it was her duty!

With great power comes great responsibility!

If she were content to be an ordinary assistant, she naturally wouldn't have to risk her life dealing with inhuman monsters, but if she wanted to stand on her own, gain higher status, and greater power, she had to bear the corresponding risks and responsibilities.

Su Quan was very satisfied with her answer and attitude; he chuckled and comforted her: "You are my assistant; naturally, I won't let you throw an egg against a rock. If you get scratched or bruised and leave any scars, I'm the one who loses out."

Felicia Hardy's reaction was fast; as soon as Su Quan said that, she knew her opportunity had come.

Sure enough, a vial of brightly colored serum appeared in Su Quan's hand.

"This is the Super Soldier Serum, which has a one hundred percent success rate. After injection, it can enhance the user's metabolic functions and all physical capabilities, reaching the peak of human potential."

"And you will age very slowly and live a very long time."

Felicia Hardy's eyes lit up instantly. Not to mention the other benefits, just the fact that she would age very slowly was enough to make her ecstatic.

After all, strength is temporary, but beauty is for a lifetime!

"Squelch—"

At Su Quan's request, Felicia Hardy injected the Super Soldier Serum in the most candid posture.

Immediately after, an overwhelming wave of pain struck.

As Black Cat, Felicia Hardy had no outstanding abilities other than perfect balance; her physical fitness in all aspects was better than an ordinary person's, which was also the result of years of training.

Now, though—who would train themselves when they could use cheats!

In terms of physical fitness, injecting the Super Soldier Serum would definitely make her stronger than the original Black Cat.

In terms of ability, the original Black Cat had rich hand-to-hand combat experience and was a high-level gymnast and acrobat, which was why she could perform high-difficulty moves in battle and action.

Although Felicia Hardy might not be as professional as the original, she had practiced and could hold her own; later, he would download a Martial Arts Master ability for her, and her combat power would definitely far exceed the original.

As for the uniform, that went without saying; whether it was the material, function, or defensive capability, the Void Battle Bead uniform was far better than the one she had made herself.

"Uh—"

A low moan sounded.

Felicia Hardy woke up.

Su Quan asked with a smile: "How do you feel?"

Felicia Hardy sensed the changes in herself and said excitedly: "It's great, thank you, Master."

Without realizing it, Felicia Hardy had changed how she addressed him.

She used to call him Boss or Mr., but now, like the others, she changed it to Master.

Su Quan chuckled: "Don't be in a hurry to thank me; what I'm giving you is more than just the Super Soldier Serum."

Psychic ability activated.

Martial Arts Master ability, downloading.

In an instant, hundreds of combat techniques took deep root in Felicia Hardy's mind; although it would still take some time to integrate them and form muscle memory, she was now already a highly skilled fighter.

"This—" The amazed Felicia Hardy was just about to speak, but Su Quan's gifts weren't over yet.

A string of plain-looking beads was placed on her wrist; Su Quan tapped them lightly, and countless nano-particles quickly covered her entire body. In the blink of an eye, she had transformed into a different look.

A black tight-fitting suit, with white fur standing up at the ankles, wrists, and collar; a black eye mask adhered to her eye sockets, which not only concealed her appearance but also added a touch of mysterious nocturnal charm.

"Physical fitness, combat skills, uniform equipment—you have them all now."

"From now on, you have a new identity and a new codename, called—Black Cat!"

Su Quan looked at her and nodded slightly with satisfaction.

As he watched, his brows furrowed slightly; he vaguely felt that something was wrong, and compared to the Black Cat in his memory, it seemed something was missing.

"Right!"

"It's the hair, it's the hair color!"

When the original Felicia Hardy turned into Black Cat, she would wear a silver wig!
