Chapter 100

Buzz—

Spider-sense tingled.

Simultaneously, faint voices could be heard from a distance.

While Mark was curious about what was happening, the immediate concern was rescuing Adult Andrew Spidey.

The fact that the adversary could beat Adult Andrew Spidey to this extent indicated their capability to defeat or even kill Spider-Man.

It wasn't the time to complicate matters.

Suppressing his anger, Mark gently cradled Adult Andrew Spidey and leaped through the portal.

Doctor Strange promptly closed the portal.

Holland Spidey and Ned, who had just rushed back, joined Mark in carrying Adult Andrew Spidey.

Max had intended to help, but when he saw Adult Andrew Spidey's face, he hesitated. After all, they were mortal enemies before.

MJ swept everything off the table nearby, saying, "Place him here for now."

So, the three of them gently laid Adult Andrew Spidey on the table.

"What happened? What's wrong with him?" Middle-aged Tobey Spidey noticed the situation and came over to help.

Mark said with a hint of anger, "He was probably found by those guys while he was outside. They defeated him and did this to his whole body."

At this point, Adult Andrew Spidey's body was almost entirely shattered into palm-sized fragments, and he lay there like a limp noodle.

With such severe injuries, even with Spider-Man's strong regenerative abilities, there was a high chance he wouldn't recover!

"Damn it!" Holland Spidey slammed his hand on the table.

"Make some space," Doctor Strange pushed aside Mark and Holland Spidey, walked to the table, and began some urgent treatment for Adult Andrew Spidey.

Before becoming a sorcerer, Doctor Strange was an excellent, almost legendary, neurosurgeon. Although this situation wasn't within his expertise, being the only doctor present, his professional competence surpassed others.

"Don't just stand there. Given his condition, taking him to the hospital is the best option," Doctor Strange quickly said after giving Adult Andrew Spidey some initial treatment.

"Wait, perhaps I have a better place," Holland Spidey spoke up.

He picked up his phone, dialed a number, and said, "Hello, Happy, I need your help."

Happy Hogan, Iron Man's bodyguard and assistant, was also the head of security and asset management at Stark Industries.

Due to Iron Man designating him as Holland Spidey's liaison officer, he had a close relationship with Holland Spidey.

Well, apart from that, he also had a short-lived "dewy relationship" with Holland Spidey's aunt.

After explaining the situation to him, Happy Hogan immediately agreed and arranged an intensive care unit for them in a private hospital under Stark Industries.

Unfortunately, Stark Industries was temporarily under investigation due to its involvement with Holland Spidey, and most of its assets were frozen.

Otherwise, he was even planning to send a plane to pick them up.

Holland Spidey really had his ways.

Of course, sending someone over was not that complicated.

After providing the address, Happy Hogan, Doctor Strange, and Mark teleported directly to the hospital.

Outside the operating room, everyone anxiously awaited.

On one hand, they were worried about the life of Adult Andrew Spidey, and on the other hand, they were concerned about the upcoming decisive battle in a few hours.

They already had little time to prepare, and now, this happened. Over ten minutes later, Happy Hogan hurriedly arrived.

Holland Spidey mentioned that the injured person's name is Peter, and he initially thought it was him, feeling worried.

Upon arrival, he realized it was another Peter. "So, there's one Peter lying in the operating room, you're Peter, and he's Peter too? Oh, my word."

After Holland Spidey's introduction, Happy Hogan was a bit confused. Mark raised his hand, indicating, "Actually, I'm called Mark. Uh, you can just call me Mark."

"Alright, Mark, hello," Happy shook hands with. Mark and then shook hands with Middle-aged Tobey Spidey. "Hello, Mr. Peter."

"As for why he's here, it must remain confidential. I'm afraid those guys, if they find out, might come here," Mark explained.

Happy nodded, "You can rest assured. This is a private hospital of Stark Industries, and confidentiality is very high."

"That's good."

"Do you need anything else? Maybe I can help you." Happy continued; he had just learned from Holland Spidey about the Sinister Six's kidnapping of May.

Although May claimed it was just a fling, Happy was serious and genuinely concerned about her safety.

"Well, we do need some help," Mark nodded, not refusing Happy's offer.

With Happy's assurance, the group temporarily set aside concerns about Adult Andrew Spidey and focused on preparing for the upcoming battle.

Firstly, Mark asked Happy for several high-end computers, prepared for Ned and MJ. They weren't combatants, but they could provide remote support, such as finding enemies, tracking locations, and detecting traps.

Next was the Ark Reactor.

This was a masterpiece left behind by Iron Man, from the initially flawed first and second generations to the perfected version now.

In fact, it was the "sun in the palm" that Doctor Octopus had been tirelessly pursuing!

It contained an enormous amount of energy, reaching an output power of 8 terajoules per second.

However, in reality, the energy contained in Doctor Octopus's artificial sun was even more massive than the Ark Reactor.

In his initial experiments, Doctor Octopus's artificial sun could release about 1 million kilowatt-hours of energy per second.

And 1 kilowatt-hour equals 3.6 megajoules.

1 million kilowatt-hours is 3.6 million gigajoules, making the energy intensity 450 times higher than that of the Ark Reactor!

It had a broader prospect!

Of course, using pure output power as a comparison wasn't appropriate.

Iron Man had also designed larger Ark Reactors that could power Stark Tower independently of the city's grid.

However, a regular-sized Ark Reactor was just enough to sustain the needs of the Iron Man suits, and there was no need to make it too large.

Moreover, this was a mass-produced version (as seen in "Homecoming").

However, the outlook for Doctor Octopus's artificial sun remained significant.

As long as they absorbed some experience on how to constrain radiation energy from the Ark Reactor, made some adjustments to the artificial sun, success might be achievable!

Most of the Ark Reactors were temporarily frozen due to the investigation into Stark Industries, but Happy, being the asset manager, had his ways.

Upon hearing Mark's request, he quickly brought out an Ark Reactor. Mark examined the reactor, no larger than a palm, and once again marveled at Iron Man's technology.

However, after only a brief look, he handed the Ark Reactor to Max.

"Max, it's yours."

Max's eyes gleamed, "I can feel the power it contains, so immense!"

"Haha, then don't waste it!" Mark laughed.

"Yeah!"

Max pressed the Ark Reactor to his chest, and a massive electric current flowed into his body, causing a faint golden electrical glow.

"Oh! I feel my body is filled with power, it's incredible!" Max lowered his head to examine his body and reported his situation to Mark.

"You familiarize yourself with your powers first; tonight, we have a big mission!" Mark said with a smile.

"Okay!" Max transformed into a lightning bolt and appeared outside. Lightning phenomena began to occur frequently in the vicinity.

Later, Mark, Holland Spidey, and Middle-aged Tobey Spidey approached a high-tech 3D printer.

This advanced 3D printer was somewhat similar to the "sewing machine" of the deceased Spider-Man from Miles' world. However, this one was more technologically advanced.

Perhaps because it was Iron Man's creation, it was usually used to manufacture accessories for Iron Man suits.

Holland Spidey operated this high-tech 3D printer and designed a set for Tobey Spidey. The style still referred to Tobey's own combat suit, but the material directly used nanometal particles, enhancing its portability, defense, and functionality in all aspects.

Apart from the appearance, it was similar to the Iron Spider suit that Holland Spidey had, manufactured by Iron Man.

Mark's nanometal suit also underwent optimization and upgrades. For example, the spider pattern on the chest became a spider flyer with detection capabilities and a small firepower system. This small firepower system had fifty bullets and an extremely small missile, perhaps not achieving a one-hit-kill effect but significantly increasing firepower, compensating for the lack of long-range output in Spider-Man's abilities.

Moreover, navigation systems, distance measurement, and auxiliary aiming systems were added to the glasses, significantly improving combat proficiency and accuracy.

The suits also came with a drying system, a temperature regulation system, and an internal air circulation system, convenient for combat in special environments like the sky, ocean, or even space.

Additionally, at Mark's request, the new nanometal suits included a device to prevent mental intrusion. Some methods could deceive human senses but not mechanical devices, so using mechanical devices could counteract such illusions.

This was mainly considered in anticipation of encounters with individuals like Mysterio, who excelled in manipulating illusions.

Surprisingly, after Mark said this, Holland Spidey also found it reasonable.

Probably because of Mark's words, it reminded him of the fear of being controlled by Mysterio's virtual reality technology in the past. If he had a similar function on his suit back then, he wouldn't have fallen for it.

So, after Mark's suit upgrade was complete, Holland Spidey also upgraded his own suit.

While Mark and others were busy preparing for battle, on the other side, the door of the abandoned warehouse was pushed open.

A figure in a cloak slowly walked in, dragging someone's feet in his hand.

The person being dragged wore a shattered metal armor, their head hanging to the side, seemingly lifeless. A half-piece of a grim mask was stuck to their bloodied face.

It was the Green Goblin!

The cloaked figure suddenly stopped, raised his head, revealing a mask almost identical to the Green Goblin's.

A pair of crimson eyes stared at the wall through the holes in the mask, frozen for a moment.

The wall that originally held Adult Andrew Spidey was now empty.

"Who took away my toy!"

The cloaked figure roared angrily, forcefully flinging the Green Goblin's lifeless body.

Thunk!

The Green Goblin slammed heavily into the spot where Adult Andrew Spidey had been hanging, blood splattering instantly. Mixed with the blood left by Adult Andrew Spidey, it created a peculiar picture.

It looked like a grotesque ghost face!

"Cough, cough." Impacted by the collision, the Green Goblin coughed violently.

He leaned weakly in the corner formed by the wall and the floor, his head tilted, spitting out blood mixed with visceral fragments.

"Haha, hahaha." The Green Goblin looked at the cloaked figure and burst into laughter, "I know, cough cough, who you are now! Speaking of which, you should thank me! It's me who, cough cough, made you what you are today! Hahaha!"

The Green Goblin's laughter was sharp and insane, echoing continuously in the abandoned warehouse.

Shh, shh, shh.

The cloaked figure lifted his foot, slowly approaching the frenzied Green Goblin.

He looked down at the seemingly mad Green Goblin, suddenly sneered, and a hoarse, low voice sounded, "You're right. Perhaps I should 'thank' you properly. "

As he spoke, he lifted his foot and ruthlessly stepped on the Green Goblin's foot.

Crack—

A crisp sound echoed.

The Green Goblin grunted, but there was no scream or plea. Instead, he burst into laughter again.

The cloaked figure clenched his fist and delivered a punch to the Green Goblin's face.

Bang!

All the front teeth were knocked out.

The Green Goblin still didn't plead. After spitting out all his teeth, he continued to laugh recklessly.

The cloaked figure remained silent, listening to the Green Goblin's laughter while ruthlessly breaking his hands, feet, and every part of his body inch by inch.

"Any last words?"

When the Green Goblin's entire body was battered and bruised, the cloaked figure inquired.

At this point, the Green Goblin's face showed no intact areas. He spat out the last tooth, restrained his laughter, and looked at the cloaked figure, murmuring, "Poor Peter, no parents, no uncle and aunt, no girlfriend. Uh!"

Before the Green Goblin could finish his sentence, the cloaked figure grabbed his throat.

Crimson eyes stared through the mask at the Green Goblin.

After a while, just as the Green Goblin was about to suffocate, the cloaked figure opened the metal mask on his face, revealing a face covered in scars.

He looked at the Green Goblin, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.

"Uncle Osborn, do you know, when I killed Harry, he wasn't as tough as you!"

The Green Goblin's eyes widened suddenly.

However, before he could speak, the cloaked figure delivered a punch, smashing his head directly!

The cloaked figure casually tossed the Green Goblin's body on the ground, letting blood flow beneath his feet.

"The show is just beginning for the version of me from other worlds!"
