786: Chapter 786 Akatsuki's First Operation

Mordo wasn't speaking nonsense; many mages below had indeed mentioned this matter, and quite a few had approached him, either overtly or covertly, to bring it up.

It couldn't be helped—who wouldn't want more resources and better things!

Especially since they had all come into contact with the Basic Cultivation Method and had already crossed the threshold; the changes it brought were immense!

It was truly addictive!

Even an Archmage like Mordo felt the same way!

And the absolute most critical point was that their original 'debts'—the borrowed magic power or the residues that had affected their bodies—were either absorbed or neutralized during their Cultivation.

A thousand words were not as direct as the tangible benefits they felt personally!

Mordo could only pass down the news he had received from The Ancient One.

However, he also specifically added: "Everything is just starting now, and things will get better in the future. Moreover, our Kamar-Taj will definitely deepen its cooperation with the Akatsuki Organization! There will surely be more opportunities for everyone to earn contribution points in the future! So, everyone, just Cultivate well for now! Accumulate contribution points slowly; don't be in a rush!"

The mages had no other choice; after hearing this, they simply nodded.

There was nothing they could do; after all, it belonged to the Akatsuki Organization, and they neither dared nor wanted to defect to them.

That would be betrayal! Even if the Akatsuki Organization was a partner and an ally.

What's more, the Akatsuki Organization might not even want them!

The mages also knew that the Akatsuki Organization currently only had five members! One was that incredibly beautiful blonde woman who had come to see the Sorcerer Supreme before; she seemed to be the leader.

The remaining four were members.

With so few people, it was clear this organization followed a 'carefully selected' elite model, or perhaps had specific recruitment rules.

If one asked to join the Akatsuki Organization at this time, it would be fine if they were accepted, but if the other party refused, they would be in trouble with both sides.

As sparks splattered, a portal opened.

Peter and the other three stepped out, wearing the clothes of the Akatsuki Organization.

The scene was already in total chaos.

Collapsed walls, screams, sirens, and the sound of gunfire!

A group of New York police officers held their guns, using police cars as cover, and fired at the giant green Lizard monster in the center of the field.

However, those pitiful pistol bullets only produced a few sparks when they hit it.

They couldn't even break through the opponent's flesh.

The Lizard monster smashed a nearby wall with one punch, and its large hand grabbed a huge rock, hurling it fiercely toward the NYPD.

As fate would have it, the direction the boulder was flying was exactly toward Peter's father-in-law on the front line, Gwen's father—Chief George!

Gwen instinctively rushed toward George.

But even faster than her was Peter, rushing to save his father-in-law.

After all, both of them had started Cultivating, and Peter had the additional power of Spider-Man compared to Gwen.

Boom!!!

Peter shattered the flying boulder with a single punch, his figure landing on a police car.

He turned his head to look at George: "Hey~ Father... Chief George, are you alright?"

Peter's voice was distorted because Tony had provided technical support for everyone.

The suits they wore were now high-tech products.

As for being recognized if the suit was damaged, voice distortion would be useless anyway, because if it was damaged to that extent, their faces would surely be exposed.

"Spider-Man!?" George's expression turned somewhat sour when he saw this "criminal" in front of him, but he had to admit the other party had indeed just saved him.

Hmm? George noticed something unusual about Peter's attire at this moment.

That's right, the Akatsuki Organization cloak.

"It's Spider-Man! Spider-Man is here!" Seeing Peter's arrival, the crowd instantly shouted in excitement.

Whoosh~ Gwen landed on a nearby police car.

"Ah! Another Spider-Man?"

Because they were wearing "matching outfits," Ghost-Spider Gwen's costume, while having slightly different colors, looked like another variety of Spider-Man in its overall design.

Gwen gave George a deep look—her own father—but unfortunately, she couldn't reveal her identity at this moment.

George's expression changed slightly. What exactly had happened to Spider-Man?! How was there another Spider-Man, and why were they wearing the same clothes?

The head designs of the suits underneath looked different, but the cloaks on the outside were indeed identical.

With such a uniform style, it was hard not to think they belonged to an organization!

If they were part of an organization, the danger and various assessments would be far more terrifying than Spider-Man being a lone wolf!

He could only pray they were just wearing matching couple's outfits.

However, in the next moment, his fantasy was shattered.

Because another person with green hair, wearing the same Black cloak with red clouds, arrived. Beneath her feet was a piece of... unknown metal, carrying her as she floated in mid-air.

With three people in the same outfit, you couldn't call it a couple's outfit anymore, right? It had to be an organization!

You couldn't exactly say it was a love triangle, could you?

Whoosh~ Immediately after, the sound of breaking air rang out again.

"Iron Man is here!"

"Ah! It's Iron Man!"

"Spider-Man and Iron Man are both here! We're saved!"

The surrounding crowd cheered instantly upon seeing Tony's arrival.

"Eh? All four of them seem to be wearing the same clothes?"

"The other two must be superheroes as well, right?"

"Have they formed a Justice Alliance!?"

"Whoo! Cool! This is just too cool!"

"Justice Alliance!!!"

The surrounding crowd was typical of the Marvel world, cheering one after another.

Meanwhile, the Lizard Man's attention had already been drawn by Peter and the other three.

Its vertical pupils darted back and forth between them a few times, and as if sensing something, it suddenly turned and ran.

"Thinking of leaving!?" Peter was startled and quickly shot a web with a fierce pull, his body bursting toward the Lizard Man.

Gwen immediately followed suit.

In the air, Tony also leaned his body forward, flames erupting from his hands and feet as he accelerated to chase the Lizard Man.

Lorna didn't move; instead, she raised a hand, and her green hair glowed with a faint green light.

Countless steel bars and metal pieces were torn out and flew through the air.

In an instant, they intercepted the Lizard Man.

Bang!

Caught off guard, the Lizard Man slammed its head directly into the steel that was like a city wall.

With a 'duang' sound, it was clearly a solid hit.

The Lizard Man bounced back, retreating several steps and shaking its somewhat dizzy head.

Looking at the steel wall it had dented,

it heard the sound of something breaking through the air from behind.

Just as it turned around, it saw Tony flying toward it.

He raised a hand—palm repulsor.

Boom!!!

A precise hit!

While the Lizard Man was blasted with flesh and blood flying, it was knocked backward into the steel wall behind it.

Immediately following that, the steel wall seemed to come alive, transforming directly into ropes that tightly bound the Lizard Man's body.

Layer upon layer, the Lizard Man was instantly bound tight by countless pieces of steel, like a large iron barrel.

The powerful suppression and weight made it difficult for the Lizard Man to break free.
