Super Template System In Marvel and Beyond-Chapter 241: Parallel World VII
Chapter 241 - Parallel World VII
Lady Goblin roared and activated her boosters—small rocket bursts shot from her heels and shoulders, flinging her forward like a missile.
But that's exactly what Dave wanted.
The moment she entered the glowing circle on the ground beneath her, he closed his fist.
"Arcane Bind: Thorn Coffin."
The glyph activated. Spikes of glowing violet chains burst from the air and floor, wrapping tightly around her limbs and torso, pulling her down mid-flight. She crashed to the floor, chained and snarling.
"Got you," Dave said, stepping closer, sweat running down his brow.
Perry landed beside him, web-shooters aimed at Lady Goblin's face.
"You're not killing her, remember?" she said, eyes still locked on their prisoner.
Dave didn't answer immediately. He looked down at the writhing, furious villain caught in the magical net. His hand tightened slightly.
"...I remember."
Dave lowered his hand, the arcane bindings still pulsing with power. Perry was already pulling out reinforced web restraints, preparing to wrap the captured woman in them.
But then... Lady Goblin smiled.
Not the smile of defeat.
The smile of a plan going exactly right.
From beneath her tattered jacket, her hand slipped into a hidden compartment in her armor. Before Perry or Dave could react, she brought out a cracked glass vial filled with a deep, viscous green liquid—darker than the Goblin Serum, almost black.
"Don't—!" Perry shouted.
Lady Goblin bit down on the vial and swallowed the contents in one gulp.
The effect was instant.
Her veins turned jet black under her pale skin. Her muscles trembled violently. The bindings strained. Dave took a cautious step back, eyes narrowing.
The magic started to flicker.
"What the hell did she just take?" Perry asked.
Dave's expression darkened. "That wasn't Goblin Serum..."
With a bone-rattling scream, Lady Goblin's body expanded—muscles ballooning, bones cracking and reshaping. Her skin began to tint green, but not like the classic Goblin tone—this was Gamma-level transformation.
Her armor exploded off her shoulders as she grew several feet taller. Claws became talons. Her eyes blazed neon green. Hair like tendrils whipped around wildly.
A Hulk-Goblin hybrid stood where the woman had been.
The arcane chains snapped with a sound like shattering glass.
"Holy sh—" Perry barely got the words out before the mutated Lady Goblin roared and slammed both fists into the ground, sending out a shockwave that knocked both heroes off their feet.
Dave hit a wall, coughing blood. He hadn't expected a Gamma Serum twist.
"This wasn't in the damn files..." he muttered.
Lady Goblin turned her gaze on him, now nearly eight feet tall and packed with destructive rage. "You... little bastard. Let's see if your tricks work on a real monster."
Perry flipped up, webbed herself to the ceiling, and shouted, "Dave! We need to rethink our approach!"
Dave wiped blood from his lip, eyes already scanning. "We can't outpunch her," he growled. "But I don't have to."
He clapped his hands together—runes igniting around his wrists. "I'll open a portal under her feet. You hit her into it."
Perry grinned. "You sure you're not from my world? That sounds like a Spider-Man plan."
" Well, If I could I would have killed her ages ago, but sicne you want her not dead this is the plan" Dave shrugged as she nodded.
"On three—"
Lady Goblin charged them both, roaring like a monster from the deepest lab nightmare.
Dave and Perry moved.
Dave's hands snapped together again, forming a glowing sigil between his palms. The ground beneath Lady Goblin shimmered, warping with spiraling runes.
"Now, Perry!" he shouted.
Perry, webbing herself toward Lady Goblin at full speed, twisted mid-air and slammed both feet into the hybrid's chest—hard enough to send shockwaves through the chamber.
But Lady Goblin didn't go alone.
With one massive clawed hand, she snatched both of them mid-flight, her strength more than enough to hold them aloft.
"You think you can trap me?" she snarled, spittle flying from her jagged teeth. "I am chaos!"
Then the portal beneath her feet activated—pulling all three of them in.
—Inside the Dimensional Rift—
The world around them twisted. Color bled like paint in water. Gravity didn't exist the way it should. They weren't falling—they were unfolding through space and time.
Lady Goblin's mutated body pulsed with unstable power, her grip still tight on both of them.
Dave gritted his teeth, muttering a spell under his breath. "Displacement—we need displacement—"
Perry growled, wriggling in the goblin's grasp. "You better do something fast, Trickster-boy, or I'm gonna end up as a goblin-squished pancake!"
"Hold on!" Dave shouted as his fingers sparked with raw dimensional energy. With a flick of his wrists, arcane blades formed around his hands.
He sliced at the air itself, opening micro-tears in the space between folds of the dimensional pathway.
One of the slashes hit Lady Goblin's arm, forcing her to drop Perry. The Spider-Woman flipped away, grabbing a broken floating rock for footing.
But Dave was still in her grip.
"You're not getting away from me," the Goblin-Hulk hissed, tightening her grip until Dave could barely breathe.
"I'm not trying to." He smirked through the pain.
With a final chant, he released a sphere of compressed rift energy point-blank in her face. The explosion blinded her for a split second—just long enough.
"Perry—now!" he yelled.
Perry swung in from the side like a missile, webbing both Dave and Goblin's arm, yanking them toward another portal exit Dave had ripped open.
At the last second, she released her grip on Dave—but webbed the Goblin again, slinging her further through the portal and into a sealed containment pocket within the rift—a trap dimension.
The Goblin let out one last roar as the energy prison sealed shut behind her.
Everything went quiet.
Colors stabilized. The world stopped spinning.
Dave floated in space, breathing heavily. Perry landed beside him, upside down on an invisible surface.
"...We good?" she asked.
"Yeah," Dave nodded. "She's locked in a dimensional fold with no stable anchor. She's not coming out without help from a god or an idiot."
"Knowing the multiverse," Perry muttered, "probably both."
