Chapter 616: Another Person Bitten by the Spider (First update, please subscribe!)

~7 min read 1,204 words

The rich rely on technology, the poor rely on mutation.

Peter Parker is the most typical example of the latter.

After being bitten by the mutated spider, his nearsightedness was cured, he gained muscles, and he walked with a spring in his step.

The bullied, insecure teenager leaped to become the talkative "friendly neighbor" wandering over New York.

However, he wasn't the only one whose fate was changed by the mutated spider. Not long after he was bitten, the mutated spider bit someone else.

This person was a girl named Cindy Moon, and she also gained the same abilities as Peter Parker, becoming the spider-themed heroine—Silk!

Silk possesses the ability to stick to walls, a danger-predicting spider-sense, a perfect sense of balance, superhuman speed, and agility.

She has faster speed than Spider-Man, and strength that is superhuman but smaller than Spider-Man's, capable of pushing about eight tons of objects.

At the same time, her spider-sense is stronger than Spider-Man's, and she can even determine Spider-Man's location across parallel universes.

Su Quan had been paying attention to the mutated spider he had thrown away after Peter Parker was bitten.

What's worth paying attention to about Peter Parker being bitten by a spider and becoming Spider-Man?

It's nothing more than the position of the bite and the posture being different.

But whether another person was bitten, that is very worth paying attention to.

Among the three versions of Spider-Man, only the Tobey version of Spider-Man can produce and shoot organic spider silk from the glands in his wrists.

Coincidentally, so can Silk.

She can not only shoot spider silk from her wrists but also from her fingertips.

In other words, this world is the most likely to give birth to Silk, which is why Su Quan specifically arranged to meet Dr. Otto Octavius near here.

"Hmm..." A light moan like heavenly music sounded in Su Quan's perception.

In an instant, he locked onto the girl who made the sound.

He saw a girl with black hair and black eyes, a slender and perfect figure, and an Asian face, crouching on the ground holding her foot with a slightly painful expression.

A red and swollen wound from a spider bite appeared on the back of her foot.

Su Quan took a sip of coffee, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

Cindy Moon, a Korean-American, lives in Queens and is also a student at Midtown High School, but she is not in the same class as Peter Parker.

Although she is very beautiful, her personality is a bit low-key and introverted, and she is a "little transparent" in school whom no one pays much attention to.

However, her intelligence is very high, and she has a photographic memory. Her biggest hobby is impromptu fashion design.

Unlike Peter Parker, after Cindy Moon was bitten, she explained the situation to the teacher, and the teacher called the Science Center staff, who took her to the infirmary to check the situation.

"Whoosh—"

Su Quan teleported to the path between the Science Center exhibition hall and the infirmary.

Not long after, a female staff member in a white coat appeared before him, supporting the limping Cindy Moon.

"Leave her to me." Su Quan said to the female staff member and very naturally replaced her in supporting Cindy Moon's arm.

The female staff member was stunned, her eyes dazed for a moment, then she nodded and turned away.

"Who are you?" Cindy Moon looked at Su Quan and asked suspiciously.

Su Quan smiled and said softly: "Sleep."

Cindy Moon let out an "ah," her eyes closed slightly, and her body tilted as she fell into a deep sleep.

Su Quan held her and then disappeared.

At the same time, the female staff member, the teacher, and even the nearby students all forgot about Cindy Moon being bitten.

The night was quiet, and all things on earth had entered dreamland.

Su Quan, who had just come out of the dreamland of Susan from another world, glanced at Betty Brant, who was sleeping soundly beside him, and entered another pocket space silently.

This pocket space was created just today. Unlike the island on the mutant side and the pure white space where the Silver Surfer was imprisoned, this was just a small bedroom.

The layout, furnishings, and all supplies were exactly the same as the bedroom in the memory of Cindy Moon, who was sleeping on the bed.

Under normal circumstances, she would fall into a coma not long after being bitten. When she woke up from the coma, her body would change, her vision and hearing would improve, her figure would become more perfect, and she would gain incredible abilities.

Of course, Su Quan actively making her fall asleep had the same effect!

Coming to the bedside and looking at the girl breathing steadily, Su Quan laughed and joked: "No way? No way, no way? You don't really think you can hide your fake sleep from me, do you?"

Cindy Moon opened her eyes suddenly, kicked Su Quan hard, and then, with agile movements, leaped up onto the ceiling.

"..."

Su Quan looked at Cindy Moon, who was sticking her hands and feet to the ceiling, leaning over like a spider, and was stunned.

On the ceiling, Cindy Moon was also stunned by her own posture and actions.

She had clearly just wanted to turn over and get off the bed. Why, why did she jump to the ceiling, and why was she stuck there without falling down?

"Ah..." Just as she was thinking, a sense of weightlessness suddenly came, and Cindy Moon screamed in fright and fell directly.

"Ding!"

"Battle detected, reward dropped: Spider-Sense (Silk)"

Su Quan glanced at the reward dropped from that kick just now, and his hands naturally caught the falling Cindy Moon.

"Boom!"

Cindy Moon was caught directly in a princess carry.

As their eyes met, it was as if something had been touched in the dark. She looked at him, and a very abnormal trust and closeness arose in her heart.

What made her even more unable to control herself was that she actually felt a special and strong attraction from him, attracting her to approach him recklessly like a moth to a flame.

"You... what did you do!" Cindy Moon asked in a murmur.

Su Quan thought for a moment and said suspiciously: "Caught you?"

"No, that's not what I meant, you... you put me down first."

"Okay."

Su Quan smiled and let go. Cindy Moon didn't fall to the ground but reacted agilely, landing in a half-squat before standing up.

"I... I seem to be a bit wrong. Something seems to have happened to my body."

Cindy Moon didn't blame Su Quan for suddenly letting her down; instead, she looked at her hands with a puzzled expression.

Su Quan reminded her with a smile: "Remember? You were bitten by a spider at the Science Center. That was a mutated spider. It changed your genes and endowed you with some special abilities."

"Mutated spider?" Cindy Moon looked at Su Quan in surprise: "You know what happened to me, right? Tell me, what exactly happened to me!"
