Chapter 026

"My stats are growing too slowly..."

Sitting in his room, Alex frowned as he opened up his status screen. He had gotten a habit of looking through his status every night but lately, he had been worrying over his lack of strength.

His skills were growing steadily along with his wolf and Alex had even gotten more and more proficient in combat due to his constant tussle with the street gangs and his training in the training room.

But the problem still remained about his stats.

As he wasn't given super strength like Spiderman through a spider bite or had been injected with the super soldier serum, Alex's strength was more or less in the realms of ordinary humans if he didn't count his skills.

Currently, due to the bonus stats he received and his constant exercise, his stats were akin to an average boxer.

Though he wasn't in a hurry to get stronger, Alex very well knew what was coming next. From the Stark expo to the emergence of Thor, there were a lot of events that made him feel the necessity to grow stronger.

The final boss was Loki and the battle of New York which was going to take place in the upcoming years.

"I really need to get as strong as possible till then."

Alex said as he looked up at his stats.

'My skills have definitely grown but I can't say the same about my stats.'

Alex thought, looking up at the holograms in front of him.

As his skills have levelled up, it has become a lot easier for him to manoeuvre around. The duration of his bullet time had gone up 5 seconds every level and his wolf had just become more and more powerful.

But the actual problem was that he was still someone who can die by a bullet.

His suit will help him to an extent but it wasn't enough. If one day he gets shot, that will be the end of him.

"It would be so good if I had a bulletproof body like Luke cage."

Muttering to himself, Alex opened up the hero shop and searched for items that can help him grow his stats.

Fortunately for him, there were quite a few of these items. 

There was a martial skeleton he could buy and it even came with a cultivation technique like those Chinese wuxia novels he had read in his previous life.

But the price was extraordinarily high.

Just the lowest level martial skeleton was of 50k HP and there was no way Alex could afford something like that. He scrolled further and found other items like Mana skeleton armour and Lightning physique.

There were even animal bloodlines like Dragon, phoenix. 

Alex even found a bloodline called "Kung Fu Panda bloodline", which unsurprisingly made him chuckle.

Although all these items sounded cool and had extraordinary effects, Alex still was too poor to buy any of them. It was akin to a factory worker dreaming about buying a Mercedes.

"I can't give up yet. There would be something... something that even I can afford... Yes! I found it!"

His scrolling stopped as he finally found an item that was in his range.

___

[Alkemi Advancement serum]

– Made by the Alkemi empire which was famous for advancements in the field of Alchemy.

– Can be used to make a breakthrough or increase physical stats.

– There's a 20 percent chance of the serum backfiring and having unusual side effects.

– The user will witness an incredible amount of pain after the usage of the serum.

___ 

The advancement serum was only worth 2000 HP which was an amount that Alex can easily earn in the foreseeable future.

Even with a 20 percent chance failure rate, he felt like the serum was all worth it. If he didn’t go for it, there was no other way to increase his stats. And it wasn’t like the other ways didn’t have any side effects.

Even the super soldier serum that made Steve Rogers Captain America wasn’t perfect. It had a lot of flaws and only Steve was able to overcome those and become a real super soldier. Otherwise, the serum had only created failures like Red skull.

“I need to buy the advancement serum as soon as I get over 2000 HP. If only there was an easy way to earn it quickly…”

As soon as he said that, he heard his phone vibrate.

He picked it up and saw that it was Peter who had texted him and Alex’s eyes widened upon seeing what the text was about.

[Check the news! They are saying that a big ugly monster is wreaking havoc in Harlem!.]

Alex read the message and immediately understood what was going on.

He opened up Twitter and saw that it was filled with people posting about what was happening in Harlem. Some were even saying that it was the end of the world or how the monster was gonna destroy the whole city and kill everyone.

“It’s the finale of the Incredible hulk!”
