Primogenitor in Marvel

Chapter 188



Chapter 188

Bruce was in a lab coat as he examined a sample under his microscope.

"And?" Betty asked eagerly beside him.

"The sample looks good; we can do it whenever you're ready," Bruce said, sighing a bit resignedly.

"Yes!" Betty exclaimed happily, hugging Bruce briefly before quickly lying down on the table.

Bruce sighed before creating the exact dose for Betty. After a month of research, he understood a lot about his own blood.

Despite being terribly toxic and harmful, depending on the perspective, poisons in the right amounts could also be a medicine.

The human body was highly malleable, and its blood seemed capable of generating corresponding changes.

Even though he believed everything would be fine, Bruce was still very nervous.

"Go ahead, do it. I'll definitely survive," Betty said, closing her eyes and extending her arm.

"Don't say that kind of thing," Bruce said, gritting his teeth as he injected his blood into Betty.

The veins in her arm turned green as the blood spread.

At that moment, Bruce felt a slight tremor in the earth, accompanied by a rather terrifying sound approaching.

Suddenly, the ground shook forcefully, almost feeling as if a barrier had passed through it.

Bruce quickly crouched down and held onto the table to avoid falling before looking at Betty in panic, unsure how this could affect her transformation.

He watched as Betty's body enlarged and turned green, measuring 2 meters tall. Her eyes turned blue, surprising him since even Ross, who was red, had green eyes—an undeniable sign of the origin of her powers.

Two blue lines emerged from her chest, up her shoulders and down her arms to the backs of her hands.

Bruce nervously watched Betty; clearly, this was an effect of the tremor and the energy wave that had passed through them. Betty soon calmed down, stopping her movements on the specially reinforced table.

"Betty, are you okay?" Bruce asked, transforming and quickly reaching her side.

"Bruce? Yes, I'm fine," Betty said, initially confused before starting to look at herself with excitement.

Looking at Bruce, who was also transformed, she couldn't help but jump towards him excitedly to hug him.

"Wait, wait," Bruce said quickly, absorbing the impact, but Betty still dragged him a few meters.

"We're really going to destroy the house," Bruce said, hugging her while ironically smiling at the destroyed floor.

"True," Betty said, amazed by her strength before letting him go.

"Tell me, why do I have blue lines?" Betty asked, confused. When she hugged him, the back of her hands was visible.

"I'm not sure either. Something strange happened while you were transforming, and I suspect it happened worldwide," Bruce said seriously.

"Let's go upstairs; I'll contact Tony to see if he knows anything," Bruce said.

"Okay," Betty said, nodding.

....

Tony was having breakfast with his family when Jarvis alerted him.

"Sir, an earthquake of unprecedented scale is occurring. The epicenter was in Madripoor, and the pulse keeps spreading; in a few seconds, it will pass through New York," Jarvis said.

"Anything else you detect?" Tony frowned, it seemed like this was what Damian was doing, but he didn't know if something went wrong.

"The continents grew, and several islands appeared in the sea. I am still calculating how much the Earth has expanded," Jarvis said.

''Although for some strange reason there doesn't seem to be as much destruction as there should be and there's no sign of tsunamis,'' Jarvis said.

"Are you sure that's all? Damian wouldn't spend a month locked up just for this," Tony said, frowning.

Pepper had a concerned expression as she put Morgan on her lap.

"Nothing else I can detect, sir," Jarvis said.

"Fine," Tony said, with no other option. He could only wait for Damian to talk to him.

A few seconds later, the wave passed through him along with the tremor.

"That felt strange," Pepper said, looking at Tony.

"Yeah," Tony said, convinced now that there was something more behind all this.

"Honey, do you feel okay?" Tony asked, looking at Morgan.

"Yes," Morgan said, nodding with a smile.

"Perfect, then," Tony said, gently pinching her nose.

....

Deep in Madripoor.

Damian opened his eyes in the capsule for the first time after a month.

"Cortana, how much time has passed?" Damian asked, yawning.

"A month, 3 hours, and 54 minutes," Cortana said.

"Why do I feel so tired?" Damian groaned slightly as he exited the capsule, staggering.

"A side effect; you had to put your own magic to initiate everything before the system stabilized with the space stone and became self-sustaining," Cortana said.

''Even with the terrifying amount of magic you have, it wasn't enough, so I also extracted your life energy, even though it's unlimited to draw so much at once, it must be exhausting for your body," Cortana said, analyzing her master's body.

"Everything went well?" Damian asked, checking his body.

His magic was regenerating, but there was none left when he left the capsule. He assumed his magic had been constantly draining.

"Everything went well. The energy wave has already traveled the world, and all intelligent beings have been affected. So far, 1 million people have accessed the system interface accidentally, and the word is spreading, causing the numbers to increase rapidly," Cortana said.

"The magical energy on Earth is also steadily increasing and has begun to affect some animals, although there won't be any significant changes for less than a month."

"Has anything happened while I haven't been here?" Damian asked, stretching his somewhat stiff body.

Cortana remained silent for a few seconds before answering.

"Master, I think you should greet your family, and they can tell you about it," Cortana said. Damian had not yet recovered all his magical powers and did not know if telling him about the attacks would immediately lead to dealing with the enemies.

Damian frowned, supposing that something had really happened.

For the first time in a while, he teleported using the abilities of his familiar instead of his magic circle.

Damian appeared in the palace's living room where only Monica and Jane were.

Monica jumped off the sofa upon seeing him before running towards him and hugging him.

"Dad," Monica said, smiling before hugging him.

Jane also ran towards Damian with a smile and hugged him.

"Hello, my girls," Damian said, smiling as he hugged both of them.

"How have you been during this time?" Damian asked, smiling at them.

"Good, Dad, I saw my status; it's really cool," Monica said proudly.

"I haven't even seen mine; I heard something happened while I was away," Damian said, looking at both of them.

"Uh," Monica avoided his gaze along with Jane.

"Several things happened," Jane said, making an uncomfortable expression.

"There have been constant attacks; people in uniforms have come out of a rectangular portal trying to take away my little sisters," Monica said, holding Damian's hand.

Damian's eyes narrowed with anger, immediately guessing who had been behind it.

Extending his senses, he saw that Natasha was at his parents' house, Sophia was working as the school principal, so she was there.

Ana was teaching magic to some children and apparently calming them down after the earthquake that had occurred.

Carol and Ophelia were near their daughters, looking alert and ready to defend against any attack.

"I'll be right back," Damian said, tousling the hair of both before disappearing.

"He didn't seem that angry," Jane said with doubt.

"Hmm, I don't know, maybe he's so angry that it's not noticeable?" Monica said, looking at Jane.

Damian appeared next to Carol and Ophelia, who weren't too surprised to see him, clearly knowing that Damian had finished with the wave that had crossed the entire city.

"I missed you," Carol said, smiling as she hugged him.

"Me too," Damian said, kissing her head and hugging her with a smile.

Carol smiled happily before Ophelia pulled her away, and she hugged Damian herself.

"What happened?" Damian asked while hugging Ophelia.

"Well, it seems we've been attacked by some guys who come through rectangular portals. Their target has almost always been our daughters. The recent attacks had dozens of people coming from all places. We had no choice but to stand guard together," Carol said, looking at Damian.

"Hmm, I'll take care of this. That guy really thought my warning was a joke," Damian said, really angry.

"I'll take care of him later," Damian said.

"Why could he attack us now?" Carol asked, frowning.

''The creation of the system was very stressful and I had to constantly correct the direction in which everything was going, the life energy that I normally give to my familiars was used to create the system'' Damian said, looking at them.

Carol and Ophelia nodded in understanding.

"But not all the news is bad; there's some pretty good news that surprises me that you haven't noticed before," Carol said, smiling.

Damian looked at Carol confused, not knowing what she was talking about.

"You'll find out at home," Carol said, chuckling.

"Let's go back; there shouldn't be any more attacks. Anyway, I'll keep an eye on them," Damian said before going back home with both.

....

The world was in panic with what had happened.

A global earthquake was something that had never happened before. Geologists were franticly examining the ground everywhere.

In addition to this, rumors on the internet about the holographic interface that appeared in front of them when they said 'status' shocked the world.

More and more people were saying or thinking 'status' before their parameters appeared.

This only happened the first time since the next time, they had to think or say it with the right intention.

A forum called 'New World' was quickly created where everyone shared information.

On the forum, it was established that the average statistics for a healthy adult human were 1.

Of course, many had less or more depending on the person.

Comments about how the world had now turned into a fantasy one completely and that animals would start evolving filled the page.

No one knew who had created the forum, but basic information was distributed.

....

Bruce, who quickly tried to find out what had happened, came across that forum explaining that magical energy had returned to the world, and by saying 'status,' you could see your parameters.

"Status," Bruce murmured softly.

A small, quite simple interface unfolded in front of his face.

Bruce Banner

Species: Unknown humanoid.

Magic-0 (0)

Strength-1 (2000)

Agility-0.9 (1000)

Intelligence-7

(Formerly a human who received large doses of gamma radiation causing unknown changes in his body and giving him the ability to transform; all his parameters can vary greatly, and only when transformed will they have an exact measure.)

Bruce was stunned, looking at his numbers and the apparent self-description, which was quite simple.

The numbers in parentheses, he supposed, referred to when he transformed.

And in species, it said unknown humanoid; he supposed he was no longer a pure human, although it's not pleasant to have it put that way, he wonders if he can give it a name.

At that moment, text appeared in front of him.

(You can choose the name of your species as you are the progenitor of it. Once you choose the name, the species names of others will be automatically changed.)

Bruce fell silent, looking at the text in front of him. This means that this system has intelligence and can read his mind; there were many questions he wanted to ask, but this wasn't the time.

"Betty! Where are you?" Bruce said aloud as he searched the house.

"What's wrong?" Betty asked, coming to his side; both were in their normal forms.

"Say 'status,'" Bruce said, looking at her.

"Status?" Betty said with doubt before taking a step back in surprise as a small interface unfolded in front of her.

Betty Ross

Species: Unknown humanoid.

Magic-12 (120)

Strength-0.9 (1600)

Agility-1 (1800)

Intelligence-4

(Formerly human but transformed thanks to the blood of an Unknown Humanoid and strong magical interference, giving her the ability to transform; all her parameters are subject to yet-to-be-identified changes.)

"Wow, they look like game statistics," Betty said, looking at the interface. She remembered that many played things like this in college.

"Yes, and this interface seems to have a certain sensitivity, responding to something I was thinking," Bruce said seriously.

"Who or what could have done this?" Bruce sighed, feeling that the coming days would not be easy.

"Someone who can do this is definitely not something the Avengers can deal with," Betty said, playing with Bruce's hair.

Bruce just put on a helpless expression as he knew she was right; this is happening on a global scale, and he can't imagine how it's possible.

....

The moment the energy wave covered the world, many titans hidden in the world due to the passage of time suddenly opened their eyes.

Feeling that familiar energy, many stomachs couldn't help but growl.

After sleeping for thousands of years, they felt truly lethargic.

Many looked like mountains on the outside or were buried in some desert; a good part was also in the water.

Although all without exception decided to close their eyes again and wait a little longer.

Magic seemed to be returning, but it was still very light; they could feel that it was increasing rapidly. Surely, in a while, they could wake up fully and occupy their place in the world.

Despite everyone unanimously deciding to wait, there was a titan in the depths of the sea that opened its eyes, showing a very curious look.

Finding the recovery of energy very strange because according to what it thought when it went to sleep, there should be thousands of years left for the world to recover.

With the most thoughtful expression a lizard over 100 meters tall could put on, it began to swim toward the epicenter of the wave.

This didn't seem to be something caused naturally; it was going to find out who had done it and watch what their intentions were.
