Canary Device

It was still Times Square. Because the situation was so serious, the stern-faced Commissioner George Stacy personally led the ESU SWAT Team over to provide support. Under the SWAT Team's fierce firepower, even the Lizardmen had no choice but to dodge everywhere.

Of course, that was also because the Lizardmen had run out of serum. Otherwise, one bottle smashed over would have taken out the SWAT Team.

George was directing operations beside a police car when he suddenly heard his daughter's voice. "Dad."

George turned his head and saw Gwen running toward him. Alarmed and furious, he demanded, "Gwen, what are you doing here? Leave immediately."

"Dad."

Gwen rushed to George's side, pulled out a tube of blue serum, and handed it to him. "I have an antidote here. It can turn the Lizardmen back into humans."

"Really?"

George was overjoyed. He hurriedly took the serum and asked, "How much do you have?"

"Just one dose."

Gwen was a little embarrassed. She had assumed Doctor Connors was the only enemy, so she had only made one dose. She said, "The Osborn Group has ready-made equipment. I can produce a large quantity of serum in a Short Period of Time.

Also, the Osborn Group has a Canary Device. It can create a medicinal mist that blankets the entire city. With it, one dose of serum can turn all the Lizardmen back to normal."

"That's great."

George was delighted. He returned the serum to Gwen and said to the SWAT Captain beside him, "Take two men and escort her to the Osborn Group. Use that device to release the medicinal mist."

The SWAT Captain immediately replied, "Yes, sir."

Gwen said, "Dad, the Canary Device can only be used with City Hall's permission. City Hall says that thing is too dangerous."

"Ignore them. Use it immediately. I'll take responsibility for any consequences."

George spoke decisively. He had earned his position as commissioner through real ability and accomplishments.

"Dad, be careful."

Gwen admired this side of her father. She got into the SWAT Captain's car and headed for the Osborn Group.

As soon as Gwen left, Howard charged out with a group of robots. When the Lizardmen saw the black armor, they thought Iron Man had arrived. They immediately grabbed a nearby sedan and hurled it at Howard.

"This saves me the trouble of provoking them."

Howard chuckled, drew the massive axe from his back, and swung it hard. The sedan split in two and flew off to either side. Then Howard let out a roar and thundered toward the Lizardmen.

The robots did not join the battle. They picked up the injured and poisoned people who had signed contracts and transferred them outside. A man whose body had already started growing scales asked unhappily, "Why aren't you saving me?"

"America is a capitalist society. In this society, if you want anything, you must pay a price. That is common sense."

A robot replied coldly. Then they rescued dozens of contractors to safety and injected them with antidotes. The contractors quickly returned to normal.

The contractors were overjoyed, some even crying with joy. Though they had no idea what had happened, they were safe.

Rebirth Hell's service had never disappointed anyone.

Similar scenes played out wherever other Lizardmen were wreaking havoc. The number of souls Rebirth Hell possessed rose rapidly.

Meanwhile, at a S.H.I.E.L.D. branch, Coulson shouted, "Director, Doctor Connors has been located. He's fighting Spider-Man near the Osborn Group."

"Spider-Man? Put the feed on screen."

Nick Fury was somewhat stunned and hurriedly called out. Soon, the screen displayed Spider-Man battling Doctor Lizard. Unlike last time, Spider-Man was clearly at a disadvantage, getting sent flying again and again by Doctor Lizard.

"Did Doctor Connors get bigger?"

Nick Fury asked suspiciously. Last time, Doctor Connors had only been a little over three meters tall, but this time, he was clearly over four meters.

"It seems so. He's become stronger."

Coulson nodded with a grim expression. During this time, Doctor Lizard had not only been developing his own kind, but had also drunk quite a lot of Rat people blood. That had greatly increased his strength.

However, it did not come without a price. Doctor Lizard's body was gradually transforming into that of a Vampire. Before long, he would completely lose his soul and become a magical creature.

Nick Fury thought for a moment and said, "Doctor Connors's destination should be the Osborn Group. The question is, why is he going there? Investigate it immediately."

Coulson quickly flipped through the files. A moment later, his expression changed. "It's the Canary Device. Doctor Connors is after the Canary Device."

After reading the Canary Device's file, Nick Fury's expression changed as well. He hurriedly relayed the information to Iron Man. "You must stop Doctor Connors, or the consequences will be unimaginable."

"I'm on my way."

Iron Man blasted the Lizardman in front of him away with a Pulse Cannon. Flames erupted from beneath his feet as he sped toward the Osborn Group. Just as the Lizardman got up and tried to pursue him, a group of robots appeared in front of him.

The progenitor of the Blood Clan was named Dracula. He was the first Vampire and possessed the absolute conceptual ability of immortality. He had come to North America centuries ago and left behind an enormous altar.

This altar was located on the outskirts of New York. At this moment, everyone believed that Deacon Frost, who was supposedly still on the road, was already inside the altar. At the same time, the twelve pureblood Elders and Blade had also been transferred here.

"Those humans watching me must think I'm still traveling, but they have no idea that the one giving that speech was only my double."

Deacon Frost sneered. "Would I not know what humans are planning? We want to destroy them, and they want to destroy us as well. Unfortunately, they have no idea how powerful our Blood Clan truly is. In their eyes, the so-called Blood God is probably just a joke."

Mercury said, "They don't know that the joke in their eyes is enough to destroy humanity."

"Begin. I will sacrifice the twelve pureblood Elders, sacrifice Blade the Daywalker, and become the greatest Blood God."

Standing at the center of the altar, Deacon Frost shouted loudly. Mercury nodded with a fanatical expression and bound the twelve pureblood Elders to the twelve pillars beside them.

The pureblood Elders cursed, "You'll get us killed, Deacon Frost! You'll get the entire Blood Clan killed!"

"No. I will make the Blood Clan the rulers of Earth."

Deacon Frost raised both hands, incomparably excited. At the same time, above the altar, Blade the Daywalker was pushed into a coffin by his mother, Deacon's woman. A massive amount of blood surged from the coffin, seeping along the formation's patterns into the altar below.

The ritual officially began.

Outside the altar, Whistler, a robot carrying a case on his back, strode toward the altar with a silver sword over his shoulder. When the Vampires guarding the entrance saw him, they asked in shock, "What the hell is that thing?"

"This is a machine of vengeance returned from Hell."

Whistler grinned, raised his left hand, and fired a silver sphere from his palm. The next second, the sphere exploded, and countless flying needles shot out, piercing the bodies of dozens of Vampires.

With incredulous expressions on their faces, the Vampires all turned to ash and scattered away.

"High technology. I love this body."

Whistler burst into laughter, kicked open the altar gates, and walked inside.
