Ch: 164 [Spidey’s lessons]
The environment around us continued to distort and warp. The city's skyscrapers twisted like liquid, the ground beneath my feet undulating as if it were made of water. The mirror dimension was a chaotic place, a realm where the laws of physics were twisted and manipulated by those who controlled it. I wanted to learn how to control it, but the Ancient One told me to be patient and not rush. Well, I guess fate is forcing me to learn it on my own.
"Ancient One's teachings, huh?" I muttered to myself, cracking my knuckles. Time to practice a bit. I was too busy for the past few days, so I didn't have time to train. So, what could be a better place than this? "Let's see what you bastards got."
The six figures surrounded me, each one radiating an aura of dark energy. Their faces were hidden beneath the hoods. It was like a dark energy swirling around their faces and their eyes glowed with purple light. I tried scanning their faces through the mask, but technology didn't seem to work on them. The feminine voice from earlier spoke again, echoing around the distorted space.
"Your arrogance will be your downfall, Spider-Man. You may have some skill, but you are no match for the power of the Dark Dimension."
"Yeah, yeah," I replied, rolling my eyes. "I've heard that one before."
I raised my hands, retracting the nanites as the familiar tingling sensation swept through my body as I summoned my chi. The energy coursed through me, a warm, golden light visible through my skin. My hands crackled with electricity, as black gooey liquid burst out of my skin pores fused with my chi, creating an organic armor. I was ready for whatever they threw at me.
Ah! This feeling of intense power rushes through my veins... I missed this. I can finally unleash everything without holding back in this dimension. I wonder if these fuckers would live long enough for me to test out all my power on then. Probably not.
The first attacker blinked before me, a blade of dark energy extending from his hand. He stabbed me right in the chest, but my enhanced armor protected me. I grinned, grabbing his wrist and crushing it with a single hand. "Uumm... What are you doing with that paper blade?" I grabbed his head with my left hand and used my bio-electricity to fry his brain.
"First lesson, never get in my way. Second lesson, you're dead meat!" I clenched my fist, pouring chi, and punched his face.
[Splat!] A beam of chi blasted through the man's head, sending a spray of blood and gore flying everywhere. His corpse crumpled to the ground, dissolving into dust as the dark energy surrounding him faded away.
"Next..."
The second figure raised his hands, summoning a swarm of shadowy tendrils that lashed out at me. The third figure raised a hand, shooting bolts of dark energy at me. The fourth figure raised his hand and created a barrier of energy around his teammates, while the fifth and sixth figures blinked behind me and attacked simultaneously with transparent blades.
"Third lesson..." I stomped my right foot on the glassy ground, sending out a massive wave of chi that swept them a few meters away from me as their dark energy dissipated into nothingness. The area around me crumbled as shards of glass flew everywhere. "Never fight a chi user in a close combat range. Fourth lesson..." I appeared behind the second and third attackers and stabbed them with my stingers, pouring enough acidic poison into them to make their blood and internal organs boil. The shield around their body cracked like a thin sheet of ice. "Once you get pierced by my stingers, you are dead, and fifth lesson..."
I used my enhanced speed to appear behind the fourth one and before he could even react, I punched my fist through his chest and ripped his heart out. "It doesn't matter how much defense you put on your mates, they die anyway." I crushed his heart with my bare hands and tossed it aside as he fell to the ground, dead.
"Sixth lesson... There's no such thing as teamwork when I'm the opponent." I appeared before the fifth attacker and grabbed him by the throat, lifting him off the ground.
He tried to slash me with his weird transparent magic, but it vanished as soon as it came in contact with my armor. So, I guess, I'm immune to dark magic, huh?! Interesting. I stared at him through my mask as I slowly crushed his windpipe, savoring every moment of his suffering.
"Seventh lesson... Never try to run away when I'm the opponent." I twisted my hand and snapped his neck, killing him instantly. "Because there is no escape from my web." I threw a web at the sixth one and pulled her toward me. She's that girl who spoke something about me being arrogant. She wrapped the surroundings and tried to cut off my web, but seeing that it wasn't working and her energy was disappearing faster than she could regenerate, she tried to teleport away. But, I won't let her.
I dashed towards her and was this close to punching her face, but she disappeared.
I looked around frantically as my spider sense went crazy. Suddenly, she appeared before me, swinging a sword of pure darkness. I barely managed to block it with my forearms, but the force of her attack sent me flying backward.
I webbed onto a twisted building and balanced myself.
"Now, that wasn't so bad. Well, I guess, I'll have to change the seventh lesson, huh?!" I touched my chin as I mused loudly. Then, I snapped my fingers, "Ah! I got it!" I pointed my index finger towards her, "Eighth lesson... Always prepare for the worst."
The girl twisted the entire world around us. I found myself falling upwards as the buildings around me rose into the air. She blinked before me again, swinging her sword of darkness. But her energy disappeared before it reached me as I shot her with an energy blast of my bio-electricity mixed with chi. She teleported away again.
This time, she appeared above me and slashed downwards with her transparent sword. Again, she was forced to run away since her energy disappeared as soon as it came in contact with my armor. After a few minutes of dodging and attacking me... She finally stopped as the mirror dimension began to stabilize, the twisted landscape slowly returning to normal.
"Tsk." I retracted my armor back into my body. I can't hold the armor form for much longer. I need to save it in case something bigger comes out. I stared at the girl floating in the sky, her hood had fallen off during the fight. She had a dark complexion, long braided dark hair, and weirdly enough, her right eye was blue and her left eye was orange.
Wait a minute! I can sense two energy forms coming from her. I could sense her chi, but there was something more inside her. Something dark...
Suddenly, the temperature began to rise rapidly as the sky turned blood red. It was getting too hot and her left eye was glowing brightly as if it were burning with an inner fire.
"Yo, what the fuck are you? Why don't you come out of her body and show that ugly mug of yours?" I taunted.
The girl didn't say anything. Instead, she raised her hands as the earth shook violently beneath me. Flames erupted from the ground as lava spewed out from the cracks on the glassy surface. I dodged the magma while webslinging around, trying to find a way to reach her. I used my stingers to climb up the distorted skyscrapers, but they collapsed as soon as I placed my weight on them.
I webbed onto the walls and kept slinging around, narrowly avoiding the streams of magma and lava. The girl continued to summon more fiery explosions around me as the skyscrapers collapsed, leaving me nowhere to hide.
"Why so afraid? C'mon, how ugly can you be that you need to hide behind a girl or wait a minute... Is it because you are a weak ass fapper who got his ass fucked by demons from the underworld after getting caught jacking off someone important or something around that area? You got mentally scarred by that incident, that's why you aren't showing your face, right?" I taunted again, dodging another stream of magma. I covered my body with chi. Time to test the durability of the chi shield.
"ENOUGH MORTAL!"
Flames began to form out of thin air. No matter how much I tried to run, flames were all around me. I could feel the intense heat, but the Chi shield was holding on.
