"Okay, you don't need to worry so much. The pager to contact Captain Marvel is now in my hands.
When she comes to Earth is up to me. If I don't want to contact her, Nick Fury will be anxious to death and it won't help.
As long as you complete the tasks I assign well, I naturally have a way to make you stronger and stronger."
Lauren was full of confidence. In fact, the reason he snatched Nick Fury's pager, besides preventing Captain Marvel's arrival ahead of time, had another purpose.
That is, he wanted to participate in events related to Captain Marvel at the right time.
Because this way he might be able to obtain the FTL engine, this super black technology. You should know that the reason Carol Danvers was able to become Captain Marvel...
...was precisely thanks to the sudden explosion of the FTL engine, which allowed her to absorb a massive amount of energy, thus granting her powerful superpowers.
Although this process was full of accidents, with his wisdom, he might be able to find some pattern.
If he could build an FTL engine, and then use this as an opportunity, combined with various Perfected Super Serum formulas...
...he might be able to develop a unique and even more heaven-defying enhancement serum for himself. At that time, even if Captain Marvel came, he wouldn't need to fear.
"Boss, we will definitely work hard to complete the tasks you assigned, and we will absolutely not disappoint you."
Hearing Lauren say this, the three women immediately nodded seriously, their expressions extremely loyal.
"Boss, Gwen Miss is here, saying she has something urgent to find you for." At this moment, Alice's voice rang out in the hall.
"Gwen is looking for me? Did she say what exactly it is?"
Lauren looked puzzled. Since parting ways at the last party, he hadn't seen Gwen for a long time.
Although the relationship between the two of them was ambiguous, Gwen never actively came to him. This was probably related to his identity!
But at this moment, she surprisingly took the initiative to come find him. There must be something that requires her to find him.
"She didn't say what exactly it was, but she looked quite anxious. And Harry Osborn is here too."
"Both of my old classmates are here? It looks like it's related to Peter Parker."
During this time, he had been in seclusion creating the Hulk Serum. He wasn't very clear about what was happening outside.
However, based on his understanding of Gwen and Harry, for the two of them to come find him at the same time, it must be related to Peter.
Speaking of Peter, besides visiting him once in the hospital last time, he hadn't seen him since.
He didn't even know how his recovery was going.
With this thought, he immediately had them let in. With a thought, the nanotech suit on his body transformed back into the appearance of a suit.
With this nanotech suit, the biggest advantage was saving the trouble of changing clothes; it could transform into whatever he wanted to wear.
Of course, it wasn't without drawbacks. If he didn't wear anything underneath, it would be a bit cold.
Unlike meeting others, Gwen and Harry were both his old classmates, so their meeting place was arranged in a cozy living room.
"Wow, as expected of America's number one rich young master, Lauren, your manor is too big! Just from the main gate to where you live, it's several kilometers away."
As soon as he saw Lauren, Harry said with a smile, his words very enthusiastic. Gwen, however, had a calm expression, with a hint of coldness between her brows.
Because ever since she entered the manor, she hadn't seen a single man. The entire manor was filled with women with shapely figures.
Crucially, the three women by Lauren's side made even her, also a woman, feel somewhat inferior by comparison.
She had already seen 2B and Tifa before, so she wasn't surprised. But besides the two of them, there was surprisingly another Silver-haired woman.
That woman's beauty was not inferior to 2B's and Tifa's at all. She found this quite unbelievable.
She really didn't know where Lauren found so many top-tier beauties of such captivating beauty.
Just one such woman would be a great blessing, but Lauren had three at once.
This was simply too much. With such beauties by his side every day, she didn't believe Lauren could resist making a move on them.
And the thought of Lauren falling for them made her so angry she could barely contain herself; she wanted to go up and kick him right away.
"Harry, stop teasing me. This is the first time you and Gwen have actively sought me out. Tell me, did something happen to Peter?"
Lauren didn't beat around the bush and asked directly.
Gwen and Harry seemed not to have expected Lauren to guess correctly right away. The two exchanged glances, then nodded.
"Two days ago, we went to Peter's house to find him and found he wasn't there. Then we went again yesterday, and he still wasn't there.
And Aunt May hasn't seen Peter for two days either, so we suspect something happened to Peter. We called the police and also had my dad look for him.
But the results were disappointing; they couldn't find any information about Peter. So we thought of you.
You have so many methods; you must have a way to find Peter, right?" Gwen looked at Lauren with a hint of expectation.
Hearing this, Lauren smiled and said meaningfully, "When it comes to methods, you have no less than I do!"
Gwen knew Lauren was talking about her identity as Spider-Woman. In fact, on the day she fought 2B, she had already guessed that Lauren had recognized her true identity.
But Lauren didn't expose her, so she didn't actively confess.
Until now, she and Lauren had maintained the unspoken understanding that should exist between them.
One didn't ask, and one didn't say, as if nothing had happened.
"Mine are just minor tricks, completely useless." Gwen glanced at Lauren, a hint of a smile on her lips.
"I understand. Peter is also my classmate. If something happened to him, I won't ignore it. I'll have someone look for him now. Please wait a moment."
Saying this, Lauren got up and left the living room, returned to his secret laboratory, and then handed the task of searching for Peter to Alice.
And Alice, relying on her powerful computing power, quickly hacked into the video surveillance of the entire Queens district, and then found Peter's trace within a few minutes.
However, the video surveillance Alice found didn't initially show Peter Parker himself.
Instead, it was a Gunman wearing a black bodysuit. This Gunman was wearing a shiny black spider-suit.
In the intercepted video, this Gunman was surprisingly also able to swing quickly between city buildings, just like Spider-Man.
Seeing such a scene, Lauren was a bit stunned.
"When did two Spider-Men appear in this World? And one of them is black?"
