Chapter 12 Testing And Training *

"Hah!" Gwen punched a sleek black circular disk-like surface that was hanging from the ceiling of the warehouse.

She'd used her full strength to attack without being enhanced by Alex.

[Great, one last test. Grab the barbell.] The disk that was hanging from the ceiling fell down into Gwen's outstretched hands and transformed into a barbell.

Since there was no equipment in the warehouse he'd ended up using the malleability of the symbiote body to create constructs to test out Gwen's abilities.

Slowly the barbell started getting heavier. Alex was augmenting its density to make it heavier.

He wanted to check how much she could lift without her strength being augmented by him.

Its weight kept getting heavier and heavier as it reached Gwen's threshold of 10 tons. She seemed to be breaking a sweat but still didn't seem like it was her limit.

"Aaargh!!" She was doing her best as the barbell kept getting heavier and heavier.

Soon, she wasn't able to hold out and ended up dropping it on the ground.

[12 Tons. No enhancement. See what I meant about breaking any limits that you have? As long as you train consistently, I'll have you contend with the likes of The Hulk and Thor, beings whose strengths are far beyond Superhuman level and firmly within Cosmic levels.] 'Let's not talk about the World-Breaker Hulk… The Hulk in this timeline is close to the one in the MCU as he's shown and let's have it stay that way…'

He didn't want to talk about how The Hulk is essentially a being with infinite potential. The angrier he gets, the more his strength increases. And the increase is exponential, which makes his physical strength unapproachable unless you take him out quickly.

He also didn't talk about the various versions of Spider-Men that were better than her. He would have to explain a lot of stuff to her if he did that. She sat at an average level in the Spider-Man spectrum, not the weakest Spider-Man, but far from being the strongest.

[I can punch through a building to the point that it completely collapses?] She seemed interested in the prospect.

[Sure you can. But it'll take time, effort, and patience. I'll manage everything else. Now though, it's time to test out my enhancement to your strength.]

[Can we take a break? My arms are sore after pushing myself so much…]

[Nope. I'll take care of the soreness.] She was still wearing her Ghost-Spider costume so he was easily able to administer the right chemicals into her arms to bring her back to perfect shape.

[Are you going to do this every time I get sore from training?] She asked with dread visible on her face.

[Of course. How else are you going to get strong efficiently? Don't worry, I'll make a sustainable program for you with plenty of incentives.]

[Incentives?] She had a bad feeling about the incentives that he was offering.

[Pick the barbell back up. Let's test the enhancement.] He brought her back on track.

She grumbled a bit but still picked up the 12 Ton barbell with ease.

[Let's start increasing the weight.] He told her as the barbell kept getting heavier and heavier.

He noticed her start sweating after the barbell reached 30 Tons.

She finally dropped it when it reached 35 Tons.

[A three times enhancement to your physical stats. Not too bad... I can probably increase this in the future…]

[How?] She was curious about his strengthening procedure.

[That's for me to know and you to experience.] He wasn't going to tell her so easily.

[No fair…] She pouted.

[Life isn't fair, baby.]

They spent the next few hours testing the enhancements on Gwen's various abilities and when everything was finally concluded, they went home.

On the way, Alex realized that he had quite a bit of autonomy over the system and that he could change and add quite a few things.

He'd already made a few changes to the status panels.

[ «Status- Host #1»

«Name: Gwen Stacy (Ghost Spider)»

«Bonding Rate: 4%»

«Powers: Superhuman Physique (12 Tons)— Spider Sense— Wall Crawling— Bio-Electricity»

]

He'd combined the physical powers into a single power instead of separate ones like strength, agility, etc. And he also added the amount that she could lift to Gwen's physique stat.

He also realized that it would automatically be updated from now on. He only had to measure her base stats once to initialize this process.

He'd also made an addition to his own Skills.

[ «Skill Acquisition»

«EP: 7»

«Owned Skills: ‹Superhuman Grade Physique Creation› ‹Enhanced 6th Sense› ‹Biological Manipulation› ‹Basic Lightning Manipulation› ‹Camouflage› ‹Host Enhancement› ‹Devour› ‹Copy›»

]

‹Host Enhancement›:: Enhances the host's base stats by a factor of 3 times. Passive skill. Also affects the auxiliary powers that the host of the symbiote possesses. Power enhancement depends on factors like the type of the powers and compatibility with those powers.

He saw his depressingly low 7 EP and got sad since it was stuck there unless he devoured a large number of people or increased the bonding rate with more girls.

Sadly for him increasing the Bonding rate wasn't an easy task.

It also kept slowing down as he went forward. Going from 0 to 10 percent was much easier than going from 10 to 15 percent. So it was going to take time.

He'd already decided to use one of his bodies for extensive fucking purposes as he was going to power-level the bonding rate with a few girls to start actually generating the EP quickly. He would do it with the next version of earth that he would reach.

In his skills panel, he combined all the physical-based skills into a single banner— Physique, and also added the ‹Host Enhancement› skill which will keep track of how much he can enhance his hosts.

[Good work, Gwen. You can do your hero business if you want or go home. I'll spend some time creating a training regimen for you.] He told her before going silent.

[Hey Alex…] She seemed hesitant.

[What is it?] He asked.

[What's the incentive that you're talking about?] She couldn't hold back her curiosity.

[Oh? You wanna know?] He teased her with an amused tone.

[Y-Yeah…]

[Let's give you a little sneak peek…] His words gave Gwen chills.

The next instant, Alex separated a part of his body and turned it into a large and comfy bed. After devouring such a large number of people in The Amazing Spider-Man world, he had an abundance of mass that could be separated from his body.

The best thing was that this mass was shared between all the bodies. There was an indistinct connection that helped to make a lot of things common for all the bodies. Alex assumed that this had to do with the fact that he was the only consciousness that was controlling those bodies.

[Sit on the bed.] He commanded her and Gwen instinctively followed his words.

Her ghost spider suit disappeared as she was left on the bed while completely naked. For aesthetic purposes, Alex left a pitch-black collar on her neck.

[Hey, this is demeaning…] She complained as she brought her hands to the collar and tried to remove it.

[Then why are you wet?] He teased her and that collar started expanding into a black leotard that started covering her body while leaving her breasts completely exposed.

As the leotard covered her crotch, he started to tease her snatch.

[Alex…] "Mhh~" She couldn't hold back the moan that came with Alex's touch.

Two tendrils also appeared from the collar and wrapped around her nipples, using them as leverage to pull up her breasts and connect them to the collar.

"Ohh, Alex~" She moaned out loud and tried to bring her hands to her breasts and crotch to augment the pleasure that Alex was making her feel.

[You can't touch yourself, Gwen…] Alex reprimanded her, and shackles formed on her wrists and pulled them away, tying her hands behind her back.

[Alexx~] She whined as she tried to struggle, but it was futile.

"Nhh~" She kept making cute sounds as Alex teased her.

[This is good enough. Let's try something different…] He told her as he made sure that the teasing couldn't make her cum, it would keep making her more and more aroused and desperate.

[Alex~] Her thoughts were starting to get blurred.

[Open wide…] He told her as a phallus that came out of the collar suddenly assaulted her mouth.

Her moans got muffled as the phallus started assaulting her mouth.

[I'll only make you cum, if you can keep the whole thing in for a full minute without gagging…]

[What?~] Her thoughts were slurred and the telepathy reflected that.

[Start sucking.] The phallus grew to six inches and started going deeper into her mouth.

She started gagging soon, but an inch was still out of her mouth.

Alex pulled out and gave her a moment to breathe before going back in.

He was training her to suck cock like a pro. He was also enjoying playing with Gwen like that. He really liked the little nub of her tongue piercing that was touching his cock inside her mouth.

Although not a human anymore, he was feeling all the human emotions and didn't seem to have lost his humanity completely. Though the same couldn't be said for his moral compass.

At first, she resisted the action of sucking on the cock since she felt like it was demeaning. But soon, she started getting really desperate. Alex wasn't making her cum, nor was he letting her do it herself.

She ended up giving in and reluctantly started sucking on the cock that was invading her mouth.

It took a while, but soon she was able to suck on the 6-inch phallus with relative ease.

She was getting better quickly. Finally, Alex forced the cock to stay inside her mouth for 45 seconds before she started gagging.

He started taking longer and longer intervals as she finally reached the one-minute mark of not gagging while sucking the cock. She'd been utterly desperate and was trying her best to keep up for the last thirty minutes and when she was successful, she finally felt some mental relief, knowing that she wouldn't have to endure the teasing anymore.

[Good girl… Here's your reward.] After edging her for so long, he finally made her cum as he pinched her nipples and massaged her neglected clit.

[Ahh~!] She screamed and squirted, hard.

Just as she orgasmed, Alex played her and started filling her mouth with his cum.

[Argh~ Alex!!] She was not prepared and tried to spit it out but Alex was prepared. As she orgasmed like crazy, he made sure that she drank all of his cum by covering her mouth and forcing everything down her throat.

It wasn't semen per se, it was more of a nutrient formula with the consistency of cum. He could make it taste like anything he wanted.

«Bonding Rate: 6%»

'Shitty ass efficiency…' He complained inwardly before putting the thought at the back of his mind.
