Chapter 1113: Father and Son (51)

~11 min read 2,050 words

In the dark space of the multiverse, a diamond-shaped celestial body floated quietly at a coordinate that could not be explained in words.

The sound of air escaping when the gate opened was exceptionally clear. Peter walked quickly through the long corridor and arrived in a spacious and bright entertainment hall.

"Look, isn't this our lucky kid?" The Amazing Spider-Man walked up enthusiastically, patted Peter on the back, and said.

Peter took off his mask directly and walked forward side-by-side with the Amazing Spider-Man. While looking at the various Spider-Men coming and going in the hall, he said: "Are you getting used to the various facilities of the base? Are there any problems? If there are, I'll improve them when I go back this time."

"There were indeed some small problems at the beginning, but we adjusted them ourselves." The Amazing Spider-Man stopped in front of the bar and said to the Noir Spider-Man who was mixing drinks: "Give him a gin and tonic, I'll have a regular sweet wine, and by the way, no ice."

"No, just give me a glass of ice water; I still have things to do later!" Peter turned his head and said to the Noir Spider-Man.

"I really didn't expect that you would actually build us a base in the multiverse. We originally thought we would have to stay on that abandoned planet for a few years!" The Amazing Spider-Man shook his head and sighed.

"Because the universe I'm in had excess production capacity. Human research on spaceships hasn't reached the level of mass-producing space transport tools, but the new materials mined and the latest developed production lines were just sitting there, so it was better to use them for practice."

Peter smiled and continued: "Fortunately, Mr. Stark was generous. If he hadn't lent me the laboratory, I really wouldn't have been able to build a base so quickly."

"I heard that the original Superior Spider-Man, oh, that is, the Doctor Octopus of their universe now, also participated in the research. Also, several Spider-Men from the future adjusted the parts of the equipment that were unsuitable."

The Amazing Spider-Man lifted the lower part of his mask, took a sip of the cold wine, coughed, and then said: "It's a pity that we are too busy to help much."

"Mary Jane and I are busy with the renovation of the wedding room, so I probably won't have any free time recently."

"By the way, the Multiverse Spider-Man mercenary mission system we built is running quite well."

There was a hint of amazement in the Amazing Spider-Man's tone. He said: "This is really too crazy. We can actually cross universes to help in other people's worlds!"

"This is normal. We always have things we can't finish. Some people want to go out to study and can't keep an eye on New York's public security, so some relatively idle Spider-Men can naturally help him complete these tasks. By the way, when you go on your honeymoon, I can also go help you keep an eye on things." Peter smiled and said.

"Oh, didn't I post a mercenary mission before? Why don't we go take a look together?" Peter picked up his wine glass, stood up, and suggested.

Peter and the Amazing Spider-Man walked through the entertainment hall and arrived at a place that looked more like a monitoring room. Here, Spider-Men gathered in twos and threes, watching the situations in certain universes.

Seeing Peter and the Amazing Spider-Man coming over together, the Spider-Girl standing at the front desk asked without raising her head: "Post a mission, or accept a mission?"

"I want to know how the mission I posted earlier to find someone is going?" Peter asked, then he recalled and said: "The mission number should be, and the mission content is to search for the traces of a female Loki throughout the multiverse."

"..." Spider-Girl murmured in a low voice while looking down at the computer equipment. Suddenly, she exclaimed and said: "Oh, found it. A mission with the highest priority. This will cost 500 points. You really are generous..."

"After all, I work a lot." Peter laughed and said: "Not all Spider-Men are like me, with nothing serious to do during their internship, so I have to work in various universes."

Spider-Girl looked up and smiled at him, saying: "We all know that this base and this system were built by you and Superior Spider-Man. You've been a big help."

"The information has been summarized here. You can go to the No. 2 terminal next to you to collect the storage device."

"By the way, especially note that Spider-Man 2099 provided a particularly important clue. In the slums of the Fourth New York Sky Island where he lives, he once saw a lady with powerful illusion abilities and the ability to control people's hearts. She looks very much like the female Loki you described."

"You also know that the universe where 2099 is located is not peaceful. The Earth is shattered into several pieces, and New York is divided into seven sky islands, which can only be connected by space station portals. The entire New York is also controlled by the economic oligarch Alchemax Corporation. To move freely, you have to rely on the identity identification system."

"However, there are still some free people in the slums. That lady is one of them. Because they are in the same freedom camp resisting big companies, they have met a few times."

"According to 2099, he once heard that lady scolding people in Old Norse. In the world where he is, all history and culture are monopolized by big companies. Ordinary people can't learn this language at all, so she is very likely from Asgard."

Spider-Girl summarized the most important clues in the most concise language.

Peter nodded frequently and said: "If that's the case, it's indeed very likely. It seems I must go find 2099. Is he in the base now?"

Spider-Girl looked down to check the information again and said: "He is not here now. The last response to the Spider-Web communication was three minutes ago. I'll call him and ask if he can come over."

"Sorry to trouble you."

About 20 minutes later, Spider-Man 2099, wearing a blue and red uniform, walked over. He was much stronger than Peter and the Amazing Spider-Man, looking burly and majestic.

His voice was also deeper and hoarser than many Spider-Men, sounding older and more mature.

Peter walked up and patted his arm, saying: "Long time no see, 2099. How have you been lately?"

"Nothing good or bad, but the armor parts you provided me really helped a lot." 2099 nodded and said: "The new material you brought called 'Melted Steel' cannot be identified by Alchemax Corporation at all. Relying on the stealth parts, I successfully destroyed their latest factory built to occupy the land of the free..."

Peter turned his head to look at him and found that there was a lot of dust on his body, he was limping when walking, and there were wounds on his arms. It looked like he had just experienced a big battle. Peter said apologetically: "Sorry, I shouldn't have been so anxious to call you over."

"It's nothing, I can't stay idle either." Spider-Man 2099 shook his head and said: "The struggle has never stopped; I've long been used to it!"

After speaking, the three came to the sofa in the entertainment hall.

Spider-Woman, who had been waiting there, walked over and said with a bit of complaint: "I told you to wait in place, and I would go to support you immediately. You insisted on rushing in and opening fire first. Now look at you, you have to rest for at least two weeks..."

Spider-Man 2099 touched his nose and said: "I said, I'm not used to teaming up with others. Posting a request for help mission was just to try out the so-called mercenary system. The system is very easy to use, but you guys are too slow."

He continued: "If it were in my universe, it would take you half an hour to prepare, and you would have lost your lives long ago..."

Spider-Woman kept frowning, obviously very disapproving of his words. But soon, she took the bandaging supplies from the robot and began to treat the wound on 2099's arm.

2099 used his other hand to take the ice wine handed over by the Noir Spider-Man, lifted half of his mask, took a sip, and said: "I think you should already have some understanding of the situation in my universe."

"I'm not as lucky as you. The countries of the world didn't unite to develop technology. On the contrary, because of irreconcilable contradictions, they cut the Earth into many different parts."

"Big companies represented by Alchemax Corporation had long planned this. After humans committed unforgivable war crimes, they directly proposed to physically divide the Earth. Such an absurd suggestion was actually successful."

"When I was born, the Earth had already been dispersed into thousands of sky islands. However, at that time, New York was still a complete sky island. But later, they first cut off the slums, and then cut the slums even more finely to prevent certain free people from interfering with their rule. Up to now, New York has been divided into seven sky islands."

"I have been on the road of resisting Alchemax Corporation. I have a deep hatred for them. My daughter was kidnapped for unknown reasons and finally died at their hands..."

After speaking, Spider-Man 2099 sighed deeply, and Peter and the Amazing Spider-Man comforted him a few words.

"However..." He waved his hand and said: "This has nothing to do with you. I admit that I suspected Miles before, but later, I discovered that Alchemax Corporation stole my genes and sent signals to the multiverse. Coincidentally, Miles received their Spider-Communication."

"Spider-Gwen helped me confirm this. At the same time, she used her unparalleled Spider-Sense talent to hack into Alchemax Corporation's system, letting me know that they actually wanted to occupy the land of the free. Because of this, we had the combat operation a few days ago."

"You were too bold." Spider-Woman commented: "The situation in your universe is already bad. The so-called free people only occupy a slum sky island, and it's the smallest one. You dared to launch a local war against a big company?"

"Launching a war against them is never too early..." Spider-Man 2099 just said this and stopped talking about this topic.

Peter and the Amazing Spider-Man looked at each other and found that they were thinking the same thing. Spider-Man 2099 was going to the extreme, but they could understand it. After all, he first lost his wife and then his daughter. Anyone would go crazy with hatred.

"Thank you, Lucky Kid, this is the first time we have achieved such a major victory." Spider-Man 2099 turned to look at Peter and said: "For this reason, no matter who you are looking for in my world this time, I will definitely help with all my strength."

"Spider-Girl told me that you found a suspicious person on the Fourth Sky Island in New York..." Peter asked.

"That's right, we all call her Lady Miracle. She is one of the few hackers willing to cooperate with the free people. Although her personality is strange and her price is high, her ability is indeed very strong, and she seems to have some unclear relationship with those big companies..."

"Can you tell me more about her?" Peter took out a tablet and began to record.

"No problem, Lady Miracle probably appeared on the Fourth Sky Island in the last few years. Commissioned by Alchemax Corporation, she helped them expand their business and build factories."

"She possesses a very magical ability, capable of bypassing the big company's employee control system, hacking into their brains, and controlling them to do things for her."

"Perhaps, you who live in a normal world cannot understand what a world controlled by big companies is like."

"However, since the suspicious person you are looking for is in my world, why don't we go over and take a look directly? It's much more efficient than me describing it to you here..." ===== CHAPTER 1114 =====
