Chapter 2739 Star Core Rescue (Twenty-Five)
The mysterious man stood there in a daze, not knowing what was happening, just like Hao Jian after the old lady fell to the ground out of nowhere.
He slowly put down his hands, and his confused brain finally became clear. Yes, all this was just a trick played by his opponent, it just looked intimidating. Isn't the fact that he could deal with such a big monster so easily?
The live broadcast room was also filled with cheers and applause. The audience didn’t know who this mysterious man was, but seeing him defeat a hideous monster so easily, they knew he must be the new superhero.
Yes, the public has actually been complaining for a long time. It has been several hours since the space station accident. Where are the superheroes? Where is Iron Man? Where is Spider-Man? Where is Captain America?
Where have all these heroes who were supposed to step up and save the world gone?
In fact, someone asked this question as early as the first moment of the disaster, but at that time most people were still paying attention to the falling space station, and later they started arguing about special effects, so no one paid attention to this issue.
But after the robot crisis, many of the inflammatory voices on the Internet disappeared, and people's thinking gradually returned to normal. They also began to realize, what happened to the many superheroes who once dominated the skies over New York?
SHIELD released an official explanation. In short, someone is causing trouble in Centauri and now the superheroes have all gone to the front line. Although the public does not quite accept this result, there is nothing they can do. I don't know how many people are praying in their hearts that the war in Centauri must end quickly so that those powerful superheroes can come back to save them.
But unfortunately, after waiting for a long time, the superhero still did not return, and the people’s disappointment has almost reached its peak.
Just at this moment, the mysterious man appeared.
In the past, when a new superhero suddenly appeared, unless he really did something big and made a sensation around the world, basically only fans of the superhero group would pay attention to him. But most of them were just for entertainment purposes, studying his uniform style, guessing the specific limitations of his abilities, etc.
But now, they can no longer watch Mysterio with an entertaining eye. After all, this is a critical moment for the survival of the entire earth. No matter who it is, as long as he can stand up, he must be a hero.
Mysterio defeated the giant spider monster and chose to continue going deeper. Now he is still far away from the power engine, but time is running out. The countdown playing on the screen now has 21 minutes left.
At the same time, another live broadcast room also appeared in the public eye. This was obviously also captured by the evil artificial intelligence that called itself Friday through the intrusive camera. Another person was also rushing towards the power engine room. That person was Ben Parker.
He held a flashlight and walked firmly in one direction, looking down at his watch from time to time. He moved through the darkness without fear. Everyone could see that he also wanted to resolve the bomb.
But people don't have much hope for him. Ben Parker also showed up in Peter Parker's previous interview. Many people know that he is just an ordinary person and no longer a strong young man. What should he do if he encounters such a terrible monster?
But soon Ben Parker left the main corridor and walked into the maintenance passage. Although there was a power outage and the door could not be opened, he could still enter by removing the door lock. The originally very narrow space seemed safer.
Mysterio was not so lucky. After the giant mechanical spider monster, he encountered violent robot troops, wave after wave of robot swarms and two other giant and horrible insect-type mechanical creatures.
Although Mysterio used his powerful strength - people are still unclear about the source of this power, but some speculate that it is a kind of materialized magic, similar to creating things out of thin air - to perfectly deal with the monsters blocking his way, it is obvious that no one can escape unscathed from such a dangerous situation. His cloak has been torn, his left arm has been hit and he can hardly lift it up, and there are two cuts on his face.
But he still stumbled forward, and countless people cheered for him behind the live broadcast room, calling him the mysterious savior.
But Baker didn't know all this, he just kept cursing and complaining in his heart, how many subordinates does this damn evil robot have? ! Is he more prepared than himself? ? ?
Baker knew that even if these monsters were just for show, so was he. Drones did not have unlimited energy. Now about one-third of his drones were running out of power.
When the drone runs out of power, the stealth function will no longer work. If he just leaves these drones in the space station, he will definitely be exposed. I hope he can reach his destination smoothly before the drone runs out of power.
With 15 minutes left before the bomb exploded, Mysterio finally saw a ray of hope, the power engine control room was right in front of him.
There was another wave of robot guards guarding the door. Mysterio leaned against the wall at the end of the corridor and took a breath for a while. He was obviously very tired. Although commanding the drone did not take much of his energy, the injuries on his body made it difficult for him to move.
But he still moved forward step by step.
"Oh my God, he's so great." Miles exclaimed in the new Warriors base. He was eating a bag of potato chips while watching the live broadcast. Everyone else was packing up their equipment, preparing to go out and solve possible criminal cases in the panic.
Hearing the noise, Miles quickly dropped the potato chips and stood up, rubbing his hands nervously and said, "Is there anything I can help with?"
Robert waved his hand and said, "Just stay here and watch the live broadcast. Tell us if there are any unexpected situations. Don't run out. There must be a lot of crazy people outside now."
Miles opened his mouth, and no one noticed the disappointment that flashed across his eyes, but the black boy still sat down. Seeing Mysterio fighting bravely with the robot, his eyes were full of envy.
Before putting the last piece of potato chips into his mouth, Miles sighed, tightened his grip on the bag of chips, stood up, but sat down again after a while.
As he tore open another bag of potato chips, his face was full of frustration, but at this moment there was a knock on the door.
Miles walked over and opened the door to see an unexpected person, it was Peter Parker.
"Hello, Miles, do you remember me?" Peter looked at him gently.
"Of course, of course I remember you." Miles was finally a little happy. He said, "Genius researcher Peter Parker, the role model our teacher talked about. He asked us to learn from you."
Peter patted his forehead helplessly and said, "Have you forgotten? We met in Los Angeles and went surfing together..."
Miles seemed a little embarrassed. He stepped aside to let Peter in and whispered, "I'm sorry, my memory is not very good. I haven't talked to you, right? I certainly wouldn't dare."
Peter said nothing, patted his shoulder, and the two sat down near the sofa. Peter looked at Miles and said, "How old are you this year?"
"I just turned 17, what's wrong?"
Peter calculated in his mind that the Miles Spider-Man he knew was already over 20 years old, so when he was 17 years old, it seemed that he was still figuring out how to be a good Spider-Man.
"Miles, I came to you to discuss something with you." Peter hesitated for a moment before speaking. He said, "Don't feel any pressure. If anything I say makes you feel uncomfortable, please tell me immediately and pretend that I have never been here today."
Miles stared at him in a daze, but when he saw Peter's extremely serious expression, he nodded. His Adam's apple moved involuntarily, and he had a premonition that something big was going to happen.
"I'm Spider-Man," Peter said.
Oh my God, Miles screamed in his mind, and he said this as if he had pancakes and eggs this morning!
But before Miles could question it, Peter turned over handsomely and neatly and stuck to the ceiling. A spider silk stuck to the potato chips in Miles' hand. With a whoosh, the spider silk was retracted, and Peter sat steadily on the sofa with the potato chips in his hand.
Miles' eyes almost popped out of his head.
"Oh my god, you really are... I mean how could you possibly... uh, but, Spider-Man..."
"I am the third generation of Spider-Man." Peter said with another smile.
Miles was numb with shock and didn't know what to say, so Peter gave him a brief overview of his experiences in recent years until Miles couldn't say anything.
After a long silence, Peter said, "I came to you today because I hope you can take over the identity of Spider-Man and complete Spider-Man's career."
"What? Spider-Man? Me???" Miles was stunned again, stammering and unable to speak, not knowing where to put his hands.
"Yes, the New Warriors team contacted you before because I told them that I wanted them to help me see if you have the potential to become a superhero. They said you are a kind person."
"Well, uh, yes, I think I'm a good person." Miles could only say this, but he still didn't understand. He frowned and looked at Peter and said, "But why me? There are so many people here, many who are kinder and better than me."
"Because there is another you who does a good job." Peter also said without hesitation: "There is a Spider-Man in every parallel universe. Most of them are another me, but there is one that is special."
"It can't be me, right?"
"Yes, it's you." Peter nodded and said, "He is one of the best Spider-Mans, so when I thought I needed a successor, I thought of you first."
"But...but..." Miles, a black man, blushed until his face turned red before he stammered, "I can't do it. How can I be Spider-Man?"
"I will give you my powers." Peter once again said something shocking. "Although most of Spider-Man's powers come from being bitten by a spider, you are lucky. You can have spider powers without being bitten once."
"what?"
Peter ignored Miles's struggle and hesitation. He leaned forward, looked into Miles' eyes and said, "You just need to tell me if you want to be Spider-Man. If you want to, you can do it."
Miles was silent for a long time.
When he opened his mouth again, he didn't say whether he could or couldn't, but just said: "I have always wanted to be a hero, but I think it may not be because I am kind, but just because I am vain. I want to be a celebrity, not a sports star, but I want people to respect me from the bottom of their hearts."
"But I know it's difficult. I can't do it. I... I'm just an ordinary person. My physical fitness is not even as good as those big guys in the community. I don't have any special skills in other aspects. I can't do it."
"Really? So in other words, as long as people give you the admiration you deserve, you're willing to protect them."
“No… no.” Miles never thought that this statement could be interpreted in this way. He said, “But a superhero should be someone who wants to help others from the bottom of his heart, right?”
"Are you saying we should have nothing?"
"That's not what I meant." Miles immediately retorted, "Of course you deserve all the praise, and it's best to have a high salary, because what you do is really dangerous. Every time I see Spider-Man jump from such a high roof, I feel my heart tighten."
"So what's the difference between doing it for the good of your heart and for your reputation? You choose to face danger to protect people. As long as you do it, what's the starting point?"
