"Get out of the way!"

Peter shouted.

He did not need to say it. Spider-Sense had already made the best choice for Ben.

The instant the Dinosaur Man charged in on a foul wind, he and Peter leaped out the window in opposite directions without hesitation. Then, turning in midair, they fired two strands of webbing that stuck to either side of the window.

The webbing tightened like a slingshot, launching him at Connors once more!

"Spider Flying Kick!"

Another heavy flying kick, and this time, it was a pincer attack from both of them.

Connors felt as though his head had been struck by two bell-ringing logs. A crack sounded beside his ears, and it seemed that his skull had been fractured by Ben and Peter's combined attack!

Having landed a hit, Ben and Peter wanted to attack again, but Connors had already gone mad from the pain!

He swung his body around. His enormous fan-like claws whipped up raging currents of air, while his thick tail smashed through the corridor wall with a single sweep!

Ben hurriedly dodged.

His body was incredibly flexible. With a deep backbend, he avoided the incoming tail.

But immediately afterward, Connors's claws slashed down again. His sharp talons stabbed through the air like spears, letting out piercing whistles.

His attacks were as swift as afterimages!

Yet Ben calmly shifted his body. He gave up relying on his eyes and instead let his body follow Spider-Sense, moving on instinct.

Missing his strike, Connors angrily lowered his body. His protruding fangs snapped toward Ben's head like a guillotine.

Ben immediately ducked, bending his knees slightly. The instant Connors's gaping maw lunged at him, he fiercely kicked upward, whipping up a gust as he slammed Connors in the jaw!

"Thud!!!"

A dull impact rang out.

Even with Connors's size and monstrous strength, he could not withstand Ben's kick. He instantly flipped over like a grilled fish on a barbecue rack and crashed heavily onto the ground on his back.

Seeing this, Peter did not hesitate. He immediately dropped from the ceiling, delivering a falling blow to Connors's comparatively soft abdomen.

"Thud!"

Peter's blow shattered the floor beneath Connors, sending them both plunging deep into the corridor below.

Ben was about to follow when he saw a red-and-blue figure get flung out of the hole at high speed. Then Connors's protruding back pierced through the floor like a blade!

Like a shark's fin cutting through water, Connors sliced through the second-floor corridor!

The floors collapsed layer by layer as if triggering a chain reaction, and Connors directly opened up the space between two floors.

Now, he could finally straighten up and move freely.

"This situation doesn't look too good," Peter said helplessly as he clung to the wall and looked at Connors.

They had originally held a slight advantage only because they were smaller and more agile, and because the space was too cramped for Connors. Even so, their attacks had not been very effective.

Now that he had completely opened up two floors, Connors had become even more mobile.

At that moment, Connors threw back his head and roared. The wild sound became a terrifying sonic wave that shattered every window in the entire building!

Ben glanced worriedly at the medicine. Fortunately, Osborn's test tube was sturdy enough, and it had double protection.

"I'll kill you, you hateful little bugs!" Connors charged again!

This time, he moved far more nimbly.

Ben and Peter tried to flank him from the front and rear, but as Connors dealt with Ben head-on, his tail swung like another arm, making it impossible for Peter to get close.

When that tail whipped around, even the air exploded from the force!

Peter watched as it reduced a wall more than ten centimeters thick to dust!

Ben was in even greater danger.

Connors focused nearly all his attention on him, thrusting his arms out in a dazzling barrage.

Although Ben kept dodging, causing Connors's attacks to miss time and time again, Connors could afford to make countless mistakes while Ben could only make one.

"What do we do now?" Peter shouted.

"Trap him with webbing and wrap him into a cocoon!" Ben shouted as he backflipped away from an attack.

He knew the webbing probably would not hold Connors for long, but they needed a brief opening, even if it only lasted a few seconds.

"And then?"

"Then inject the medicine into Connors's eyelid!"

Even if Connors's entire body was several times tougher than steel now, Ben did not believe his eyes were invulnerable too.

After finding that weak point and injecting the medicine, they could at least weaken Connors or help him regain his senses.

"Don't even think about it, you two little insects!"

Connors naturally heard their loud scheming, and his attacks became even more ferocious!

But it was useless against Ben and Peter, who had changed tactics and no longer intended to confront him head-on.

The two of them kept a safe distance. They did not fight Connors directly, instead harassing him from afar like mosquitoes and continuously firing webbing at him.

Connors kept tearing at the webbing on his body, but before long, he seemed to be covered in a thin layer of white frost, and even his movements gradually slowed.

"It's working!" Peter cried excitedly.

Once Connors slowed down, Peter became bolder. He leaped directly onto him and climbed around his prey like a real spider, layer after layer of webbing wrapping around Connors.

Only after every last drop of web fluid had been used did Ben and Peter stop. By then, they had completely wrapped Connors into a rice dumpling, and Ben had even tied shut his crocodile-like mouth.

Connors lost his balance and crashed heavily to the ground.

"Finally got him. I hope the medicine works." Peter picked up the serum antidote, walked up to Connors, and reached out to pry open his eyelid.

"This might hurt a little, but don't blame me, Dr. Connors. After all, the only place on your body more vulnerable than your eyelids now is probably the Chrysanthemum Area." After relaxing, Peter started cracking jokes again.

Ben stood to one side with his head lowered, preparing to replace his empty web shooters.

The next moment, an electric current shot straight up into the top of his head!

In that instant, the world seemed to be covered by a strange filter. Every hair on his body stood on end as he abruptly looked toward Peter—

"Peter, watch out!"

He shouted at the top of his lungs.

But it was already too late!

In that split second, Connors's muscles bulged all over his body. His scales stood erect, slicing through the webbing like blades!

He suddenly rose to his feet!

The cocoon-like webbing burst apart around him!

A massive shadow engulfed Peter—

Only at that moment did Peter's Spider-Sense arrive belatedly. He instinctively wanted to use a web to obstruct Connors's vision, but forgot that he had already run completely dry.

Connors revealed a savage grin and struck with a backhand, knocking Peter unconscious.

Then the monster twisted around and looked at Ben cruelly.

"You're next!" His eyes were bloodshot. "I'm going to twist your head off!"

"That's exactly what I had in mind!"

Ben raised his left hand, and the Omnitrix face popped up.

"Four Arms!"
