His face was pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man in the black hoodie walked into his living room, casual as a tourist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vincent Hall. The Billionaire High Schooler. The Ice Demon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite the central air conditioning, Connelly was sweating profusely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Hall,\" Connelly bowed his head, his pride shattered. \"I did not coordinate with the military. I swear.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was like a dog who had peed on the carpet, begging for mercy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My dear Connelly, how could I blame you?\" Vincent sat on the luxury sofa, crossing his legs. \"You are my chosen partner. As for the military... that was just my post-dinner exercise.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Connelly forced a smile, terrified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Was that General Ross?\" Vincent asked lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes. Do you need his dossier?\" Connelly offered eagerly, desperate to be useful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not yet. I'm just curious about the man who created the Hulk and the Abomination,\" Vincent chuckled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Connelly stared blankly. Abomination? Who is that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is the contract ready?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes! My lawyers just sent it over.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Excellent. That's the best news I've heard all night.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Connelly felt a pang of loss. His Oscorp shares were his life's work. But his life was worth more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't worry,\" Vincent added, sensing his despair. \"I'm buying your shares at market value.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Connelly blinked. He expected to be robbed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I need you to stay,\" Vincent continued. \"I need you to wrest control of the company from the Osborns. Clean house. I want Oscorp to be a fortress when I officially take over.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Connelly's eyes lit up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn't beat Harry Osborn on his own. But with the Ice Demon backing him? Harry stood no chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Hall, I will purge every Osborn loyalist. I will make Oscorp yours.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ten days,\" Vincent said. \"In ten days, contact Mr. Smith at Commonwealth Bank. He will support your bid for Chairman.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A lawyer arrived with the papers. Vincent scanned them with his enhanced processing speed and signed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pick up your check at my villa tomorrow.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vincent stood up to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Connelly collapsed onto the floor as soon as the door closed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Luca,\" he gasped. \"Get me a drink.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oscorp Underground Lab.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you feel it, Peter?\" Dr. Connors looked up at the ceiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My Spider-Sense is screaming,\" Peter Parker replied, his face shadowed. \"A cold wave... The Ice Demon is flexing his power.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Connors' reptilian pupils narrowed. \"He is a threat to our plan. If we don't finish the God Gene project, we can't stop him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We're moving too slow,\" Peter said, a cruel glint in his eyes. \"Harry is weak. He's a prisoner in his own company.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you propose?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We kill his rivals,\" Peter smiled, revealing sharp teeth. \"If Connelly dies, Harry takes full control. Then we have free rein of the labs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Connors nodded. \"Connelly is the main obstacle. He's trying to pivot to energy, shutting down bio-genetics. He must go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Peter stood up. \"I'll handle it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Connelly Estate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vincent paused at the gate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Hydro-Kinesis picked up a massive, distorted bio-signature approaching fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Peter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Still on the warpath after killing Norman?\" Vincent shook his head. \"Looks like Connelly is the next target.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[System Alert: New Mission!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Mission (Red): Martial Arts Beatdown.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Objective: Defeat Peter Parker using ONLY Martial Arts. Do not kill him. Ensure Connelly survives.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Constraint: No Ice Fruit. No Hydro-Kinesis.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Reward: Red Blind Box.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Martial arts only? Against a mutated Spider-Man?\" Vincent scoffed. \"And I can't kill him? System, you're demanding.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Accept within 10 seconds.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Accepted.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vincent turned back to the villa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Luca,\" he ordered the head of security. \"Take your men to the perimeter. Do not come back inside, no matter what you hear.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luca nodded and scrambled away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vincent walked back into the living room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Hall?\" Connelly jumped. \"Did you forget something?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vincent tossed the contract onto the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Watch this closely. I sense you're in danger.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Danger?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crash!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The skylight shattered. A figure in a red and blue suit swung in, landing in a crouch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hello, Mr. Connelly,\" Peter Parker sneered under his mask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who are you? Ghost Spider?\" Connelly gasped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He's a guy, Connelly. Ghost Spider is a girl,\" Vincent said calmly, taking off his hoodie to reveal a physique carved from steel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Peter froze. He stared at Vincent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vincent Hall. Gwen's boyfriend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The jealousy and hatred boiled over. This was his chance. If he killed Vincent here, he could blame it on the \"Spider-Beast\" persona. Then Gwen would be free.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There's only one spider allowed in New York,\" Vincent flexed his muscles. \"I know who you are. And I know you want to kill me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I don't care,\" Vincent grinned. \"Tonight, we fight. If you win, you can have Connelly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Hall?!\" Connelly shrieked. \"You said you'd protect me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I said I'd beat him,\" Vincent corrected. \"With my bare hands.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thwip!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Peter fired a web at Vincent's face and launched himself forward. His suit ripped open, revealing eight sharp, organic spider-legs from his back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He moved faster than the eye could see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vincent didn't use magic. He didn't use ice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He engaged his Dragon Elephant Wisdom Technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The air around him hummed with power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come on, bug boy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now Get The FULL NOVEL at Once!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Get 40% OFF for limited time only.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>@patreon.com\u002FAuthorizz\u002Fshop\u003C\u002Fp>",878,"2026-06-06T16:16:52.860Z",1,"novelbin.me","d48844019133e23d349585b77279efffe07b116799af8aeb379cda32de965ed1","marvel-starting-with-the-ice-ice-fruit-chapter-63","marvel-starting-with-the-ice-ice-fruit-chapter-61",116,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmarvel-starting-with-the-ice-ice-fruit-cover.jpg"]
