The city hummed with tension, the air thick with unseen eyes. Phantom had made his presence known — and now it was your turn to make a move.
Daredevil and Spider-Man stood close as you pieced together your next target: an underground lab hidden beneath the industrial district, rumored to be Phantom's main production hub.
"Not your usual warehouse," Daredevil said, scanning the cracked pavement. "They say it's buried under the subway lines, reinforced like a bunker."
Spider-Man frowned. "Getting in won't be easy. Security's tight — and Phantom's not the type to leave his toys unguarded."
You cracked your knuckles. "Good. Means more opportunities to adapt."
As you descended into the shadowed tunnels, the faint hum of machinery vibrated through the concrete walls. The stale air smelled of oil and metal, a stark contrast to the neon-lit streets above.
Suddenly, a burst of energy arced through the corridor ahead. You raised your arm just in time to absorb the blast, your system instantly analyzing the unknown power.
[New Ability Detected: Pulse Wave (Lv.1)]
– Emits a concussive energy pulse capable of knocking back multiple enemies.
You turned the corner, spotting a squad of enhanced guards clad in sleek black armor. Their visors glowed crimson, weapons drawn and ready.
Without hesitation, you unleashed a Pulse Wave. The guards stumbled backward, but their armor absorbed much of the impact.
Daredevil disappeared into the shadows, silently incapacitating one. Spider-Man launched webs to disarm another.
You focused on the leader — a tall figure moving with unnatural speed. His eyes locked with yours through the visor, and a cold smile spread across his lips.
"So you've come to play," he sneered, activating a device on his wrist.
The floor beneath you shattered, revealing a pit of sparking cables and flashing lights.
"Welcome to my playground," the man said, preparing to strike.
