Chapter 413
Peter Parker exerted his whole body's strength, yanking Doctor Octopus from afar and slamming him hard onto the ground.
"We11, We11, We11……"
The Green Goblin sneered as he emerged from the shadows.
Beside him were Mysterio with his glass-ball helmet, Vulture soaring in the sky, and Electro.
Doctor Octopus also picked himself up at this moment, expressionlessly walking over to join the others.
The Sinister Six — everyone except Sandman is here.
"Gwen Stacy... isn't she already dead? Interesting……"
"So, you're the one who killed Gwen, right?"
Spider-Gwen crossed her arms, watching the Green Goblin coolly.
"No, no, no, it was all Peter Parker's fault……"
"I don't care, the main culprit is definitely you!"
"Even if I did it, what could you two possibly do to us?"
The people before him were none of them easy to deal with, 【】
Mysterio creates illusions to control the field, Vulture and the Green Goblin launch aerial mobile attacks,
Doctor Octopus is the main DPS, and Electro can use the power stations around the factory to deliver magical damage!
Simply a perfect team!
If only there were a Sandman as main tank, this team would truly be invulnerable.
Yet Peter Parker wasn't flustered in the slightest.
"Hey! Black slimeball, you're up!"
Taking advantage of the enemy's inattention, Peter Parker hurled an energy orb at Vulture in midair.
The next second, a black monster smashed through the window, pouncing ferociously at Vulture!
"WTF?"
Under Michael Keaton's terrified gaze, Venom instantly engulfed half of Vulture's body!
"Now!"
Spider-Gwen pulled a web to form a slingshot, launching her whole body upward, her feet kicking the Green Goblin hard in the chin!
"That's for running your mouth! That's for killing Gwen!"
Having offended the famously vengeful Spider-Woman, the Green Goblin was truly out of luck.
On the other side, Electro also tangled with Peter.
Using the power stations, he kept zipping around, suddenly firing a bolt of lightning at Peter..........
Every time he zipped past a power station, the film's score would break into an electrifying segment of EDM!
Combined with the illuminated pillars of light in the frame,
The entire battle scene was unexpectedly brimming with rhythm and splendor!
Even ten years from now, the Guanzhongdou Society would immediately think of Electro's battle sequence!
Mysterio wasn't idle either, using his illusions to transform Electro into Lei Shen Zeus!
A colossal deity, wielding thunder and lightning, seemingly delivering divine punishment upon Spider-Man!
The wildly imaginative visual effects once again blew the minds of the audience in the theater!
"Oh my god!!!"
"Ohhhhhhh!!"
"Mind-blowing!!!"
Who could have imagined that Spider-Man 3 could keep delivering surprises like this! A dual feast of visual and auditory effects!
At the start of 2010, everyone was treated to such a refreshingly satisfying popcorn blockbuster!
How could the audience possibly appreciate this year's other films after this?
The threshold was pushed to the absolute limit right from the opening!
Electro and Mysterio's villain combo move — Zeus's Thunder!
Fortunately, Peter was already familiar with Mysterio's illusions, and relying on his spider-sense, narrowly dodged bolt after bolt of lightning.
At the same time, he used his spider-sense to snap a power station and hurled it toward Mysterio's position!
Mysterio was just an ordinary person himself — struck on the spot, he passed out! The illusions vanished!
But Doctor Octopus immediately followed up, joining Electro to flank Peter.
Venom was currently locked in combat with Vulture, and the Green Goblin had Spider-Gwen to deal with,
The scene instantly formed three battlefields,
Yet the three battlefields were closely interconnected — during the fighting, Peter and Gwen would occasionally cooperate and support each other,
Passing by one another in turn, each engaging their own opponent.
The villains were originally a ragtag group of mercenaries, with far weaker coordination, even interfering with each other's battles.
With the effect of one positive and one negative, the two Spider-Men, through tacit cooperation, completed a final high-energy battle that combined action, choreography, visuals, and imagination!
Moreover, Xu Can employed a one-take technique, with no trace of editing whatsoever — it was pure showing off!
The audience in the theater, including media critics, were left dumbfounded by the final battle!
The camera language and choreography alone are already worthy of an Oscar-level award!
A textbook example of an ensemble melee!
Xu Can truly is the pioneer of superhero films!
"Looking across all of Hollywood, the entire global film industry — no one but him could deliver such a perfect answer!"
After the premiere, film critic Roger Ebert gave this assessment.
What they didn't know was that Xu Can was standing squarely on the shoulders of giants—
behind him was an entire era! More than a decade ahead of its time!
Later, whether it was the ensemble battle scenes in *Captain America: Civil War* and *The Avengers 2, 3 & 4*,
or the one-take ensemble battle in the final act of *Guardians of the Galaxy 3*,
Xu Can drew nourishment from them all, turning it into content for his own films!
Finally, after a great battle, Venom bit off 0.6 of the Vulture's wing, and the Vulture fled in terror.
The Green Goblin was knocked to the ground by Gwen,
Electro was blasted away by the damaged power pole, his fate unknown,
Doctor Octopus was struck by Electro's lightning, the mechanical arms on his back seized up, and the whole man collapsed.
Add to that Mysterio, who had been knocked out earlier,
after a thrilling battle, the Sinister Six were officially taken down!
At the same time, special forces across New York City racked up successive victories, driving the fanatical criminals into corners.
The remaining criminals surrendered their weapons, and the battle state in New York City came to an end.
The film finally entered its closing stretch.
The audience, who had been on edge for nearly ten minutes, could finally relax.
Just as Peter, Gwen, and Venom were exchanging glances.
The wall beside them was suddenly smashed down,
and the Rhino came charging in headlong.
"Am I late? Is there still some fighting to do?"
The moment he saw the three of them looking none too friendly, the Rhino instantly chickened out.
Just as he was about to slink away, Venom let out a roar and chased after him—one chasing, one fleeing—triggering roars of laughter throughout the theater.
Leaving only Peter and Spider-Gwen behind.
"Today was all thanks to you."
"Heh, anyway, in this universe I'm free, and I'd just be bored sitting around."
Gwen clasped her hands behind her back, striking a cute little-girl pose—completely different from the cool Gwen at the start.
Only then did Peter realize that cool-big-sister Spider-Gwen had been an act all along; deep down she was just like girlfriend Gwen—a little girl living inside.
Looking at Gwen's face, Peter's heart stirred; he was just about to open his mouth and ask her to stay.
Suddenly, Gwen's eyes rolled back and she collapsed limply to the ground.
"No, no, no… Gwen!"
