Toby reached out and gently ran his hand over the metal door, but he couldn't feel any seams on it.
This made Toby praise it involuntarily. "Yo, pretty cautious, huh..."
This kind of fully sealed steel door was the hardest to open!
But unfortunately, it was useless against Toby!
This thing could stop ordinary people. Even Peter, Spider-Man himself, might not be able to break it with brute force.
But Toby wasn't an ordinary Spider-Man template—he was a Spider Demon template!
And after absorbing Peter's power boost, he was a Spider Demon enhanced +1!
Toby took two small steps back, leaned his upper body slightly backward, raised his right foot, and fiercely kicked the metal door with a front thrust!
Clang—
With just one kick, Norman's steel door—comparable to a bank vault—caved in. The entire door was twisted completely out of shape!
Seeing that it worked, Toby followed up with another kick!
Boom—
The already teetering steel door instantly flew inward, crashing into the safe room and kicking up a cloud of dust!
Toby fanned away the dust in front of him as he walked into the safe room. Through his suit's thermal sensing function, he had already spotted Norman, sitting collapsed on the floor inside.
However, Toby didn't approach Norman right away, because his spider-sense had gone off!
That meant there was something extremely dangerous in this safe room!
And aside from Norman, there was no one else here.
So clearly, the danger came from Norman himself!
Under Toby's watchful gaze, Norman slowly rose from the floor and tossed several empty syringes from his hand onto the ground. His voice became crazed and hoarse once more:
"You... Spider-Man... You actually dared to come right to my door... Hah... Hahahaha!"
"You know, if it had been a few days later, I might not have been able to hold on any longer. I would've had no choice but to let Harry inherit my unfinished mission!"
"But today, you—my cure—have come! Richard's perfect little spider! As long as I eat you, I'm sure I'll recover!"
"No, not recover! I'll become better! Stronger! More perfect!"
As Norman spoke, his body began to undergo genetic mutations from the injection that mixed Lizard Regeneration Serum with Super Spider venom!
His original height of just 1.8 meters began shooting upward, quickly surpassing even the over-two-meter-tall Toby and nearing three meters!
Then, dense, disgusting pus-filled boils began growing across Norman's enlarged body, while four additional gaunt arms sprouted from both sides of his ribcage!
Finally, even Norman's face began to mutate. Aside from his original two eyes, six more eyes actually grew on his cheeks. His teeth fell out, only for a new mouthful of sharp fangs to grow in!
He had transformed from a human into a green monster with six arms, eight eyes, and pus oozing all over its body!
Having completed his mutation, Norman extended his forked tongue and licked his new fangs. His eight bloodshot green eyes fixed on Toby like a predator's as he chuckled deeply.
"Hehehe, are you ready to enter my stomach? You pitiful, weak little spider..."
Seeing Norman fully transform into a monster, Toby stopped standing around watching. He casually grabbed the steel door beside him and strode toward Norman step by step, saying impatiently:
"Blah blah blah blah blah. Why do you villains all love to ramble on forever before a fight..."
"After hearing it so much, it's really annoying!"
Whoosh—
Toby pushed off with one foot and appeared before Norman in an instant. He swung his arm fiercely, sending the steel door roaring toward Norman!

With six arms, Norman naturally wasn't about to be hit so easily. All six arms grabbed the incoming steel door at once, forcibly stopping it in midair!
But Norman's heart was still filled with shock, because even with all six arms working together, he had nearly failed to catch that blow!
And even though he had caught it, all six of his arms were aching terribly!
As Toby continued exerting force from the other end of the steel door, Norman's six arms began creaking, while the fluid from the boils on his arms burst and splattered everywhere!
Clearly, although Norman looked larger than Toby and had four more arms, Toby completely suppressed him in terms of strength!
As Norman was pressed backward against the wall by Toby's immense strength, he cursed furiously in his heart:
Holy shit! Your fucking strength is wrong, isn't it??
He had fused spider genes and lizard genes together. Logically, at least in terms of strength, he should have completely overwhelmed his opponent!
Yet now, he was the one being suppressed!
Impossible! Absolutely impossible!
Unless...
Norman's eight eyes stared at Carl as he said in stunned disbelief, "You're not Spider-Man. Your powers don't come from the Super Spider cultivated by Richard!"
"Heh, did I ever say I was Spider-Man?"
Tobey sneered disdainfully, pressing harder against the steel door as he tried to slice Norman in half with it!
Norman's arms, already at the limit of their endurance, could no longer hold on. The pustules on all six arms burst, and even the muscles and bones cracked apart!
The steel door was slowly embedding itself into the flesh of his chest!
Seeing death looming, Norman hardened his resolve. His eight eyes narrowed as he suddenly opened a Pennywise-like maw filled with spiraling fangs and spat out a glob of green pus!
Tobey's spider-sense had warned him the instant Norman opened his mouth. He decisively let go of the steel door, leaped backward, and crouched upside down on the ceiling!
The spot where he had just been standing had already been corroded by Norman's spit, green smoke rising from it!
"Fight if you want to fight. Spitting? That's a little kid's trick. Disgusting!"
Having achieved both goals—turning Norman into a monster and testing the mutated spider powers—Tobey stopped playing around and got serious.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
Tobey raised his hand and took aim. Web balls shot from his wrists one after another, striking Norman's six arms and two legs with precision before bursting open and wrapping Norman's massive body tightly!
Although his naturally produced webbing could not be set to hundreds of modes like web-shooters, it could still manage a few simple variations!
Like these web burst rounds!
They were fired in the form of marbles and automatically exploded upon touching a target, binding the enemy.
Tobey's webbing was several times stronger than steel wire. Even mutated Norman would not be able to break free anytime soon.
What's more, Norman's six arms had been broken during his struggle against Tobey and were still regenerating, leaving him unable to exert any strength at all!
And Tobey would not give him the chance to break free.
Tobey fired two more ordinary webs onto the wall behind Norman, then pulled them taut with both hands until they reached their maximum elasticity. Borrowing that force, his entire body launched toward Norman in a Leo Kick!
The speed of that launch was nearly invisible to the naked eye!
After a dull explosion of air echoed through the safe house, Tobey landed behind Norman's headless body.
Thud—
Norman Osborn, dead!
