Chapter 2611: Star Core Rescue (Part 1)

~10 min read 1,940 words

Just as Nick was chatting with Natasha about the past, Coulson walked in with a phone, placed it in front of Nick, and Nick looked up at him, not knowing what could not be reported directly.

Natasha gave him a look, and Nick signaled that she didn't need to avoid suspicion. Anyway, it was unlikely that anything major would happen at this time. He picked up the phone, but soon his expression became serious.

Nick listened to the phone for a long time. After hanging up, Natasha and Coulson both looked at him with curious eyes. Nick said, "The Star Core space station has a problem."

"What's wrong?"

"The matter is very complicated," Nick said, "but don't rush to deal with it first. I think this is a good opportunity."

About two days ago, Schiller was reading emails in his office at Arkham Asylum. The interns he had brought were about to graduate, and he needed to sign the internship supervisor reports. However, some people's internship reports were nonsensical, and Schiller had been busy with this for the past few days.

Of course, one of the internship reports was very special, coming from Charles, the young Charles who had come to this universe before and worked at the Presbyterian Hospital for a period of time. His internship report could be considered the best written among everyone.

Some time ago, he returned to his universe, but later, perhaps because he quarreled with Erik, he came back. Currently, he is still working at the Presbyterian Hospital and can now be called the backbone of the emergency psychological intervention department.

Browsing to the bottom of the email, Schiller found an email signed by Peter Parker. He knew this should be Peter sending him the inspection results via email, so he clicked to read it.

Schiller's understanding of gynecology and obstetrics was limited to books and he had basically no practical experience, so he couldn't understand those inspection image reports. He could only find a few obstetrics and gynecology experts he knew when he was studying for Peter and forwarded this email to them.

Not long after, several old classmates replied. They all said there was no problem with the film, the child was healthy, and as for why it couldn't be aborted, some guessed that the mother had special immunity, some guessed that the technology and drug means were not in place, but in short, they couldn't say anything.

Peter, of course, also went to the Sorcerers Supreme of Kamar-Taj. After the Sorcerer Supreme checked, the answer given was also ambiguous, only saying that the child's innate soul was bound to the mother, which caused a special protection to be generated around the child's body, and there was no way to perform an abortion in the ordinary way.

Peter's mood recently was very bad. He and Gwen were not hating their two children, but no one would be happy to be forced to have children, especially Gwen, whose mood recently was even more collapsed.

Schiller went a few times to do psychological counseling, but he also knew that if the root cause was not solved, no matter how much counseling was done, it would not play any role.

Seeing that the matter had developed into a situation where there would be problems without intervention, Schiller had to take action. He made an appointment with Peter for a face-to-face talk this afternoon.

Peter came quickly. His mental state looked pretty good, but he had some heavy dark circles, indicating that he had been very tired recently.

Schiller sighed and said, "Don't worry, I've been watching that kid recently. His nature is indeed not bad, but whether he can shoulder the heavy responsibility of Spider-Man still needs the test of time."

"Sorry, Doctor, Gwen's matter happened too suddenly, and our plans were all disrupted."

Schiller shook his head, signaling it was fine, and brewed a cup of hot tea for Peter. When they were on the beach before, the plan Peter told him was actually to let him test Miles a little bit. Peter wanted to leave Spider-Man's abilities to Miles.

Because, all in all, among all Spider-Men who were not Peter Parker, Miles could be considered to have done quite well. Gwen Spider-Man had some world-weary emotions, Scarlet Spider was too unsympathetic, and other clones also had various problems. It just so happened that this black kid from the slums was the most positive, sunny, and responsible one.

So when Peter considered leaving Spider-Man's abilities to others, he aimed at Miles first. It's just that Miles in this universe might be because he didn't receive a good education, and he appeared a bit timid and weak.

Peter couldn't rush up and ask him to be Spider-Man directly. In the end, it still depended on whether he had a heroic heart like Miles Spider-Man. If he wanted to be a hero, then Spider-Man's abilities would be his best helper, and if he didn't want to, no one would force him.

So Peter asked Schiller to find an opportunity to probe Miles from the side. After all, Schiller was a psychologist and was the most accurate at looking at people. He would definitely be able to distinguish whether Miles was a suitable successor.

But unfortunately, the matter of Gwen's pregnancy came too suddenly, which led to the fact that all subsequent plans had no conditions to unfold. Now everything still had to be prioritized by Gwen and the child in her womb.

"I know Gwen's state is not good now," Schiller said, "This matter cannot be dragged on like this. We must know who is playing tricks behind the scenes."

"What do you plan to do, Doctor? I have no idea recently," Peter sighed and said, "I must constantly appease Gwen to ensure that her mentality does not have any problems and she will not make any extreme moves. I can fully understand her collapse and wish I could take her place."

"You've done well enough, Peter. I think this matter will soon have a clue," Schiller was not shooting without a target. He continued, "If this is someone's conspiracy, he must be paying attention to you behind the scenes. Finding that your reaction is so intense, he must take some means to appease you."

"You mean, this child was deliberately placed in Gwen's body by someone? And his purpose is to let this child be born? But... why?"

Peter was puzzled, but Schiller said, "When you are too smart, it is hard to understand the ideas of some idiots. When you are too normal, naturally you cannot understand madmen."

"In your view, there are many better ways, but in their view, this may be the only solution, and they firmly believe in it, thinking that if you don't do as they say, you are ungrateful and a sinner who wants to destroy the world."

"It's not that exaggerated, right?" Peter was a bit unbelieving. He said, "What kind of thing is it that must be solved by an ordinary human female giving birth to a child? I can't think of any such thing."

"Then that means you are not stupid enough or not crazy enough, or not rigid and backward enough," Schiller shrugged and said, "I have 80% certainty that this is not a coincidence but a conspiracy, so you must talk to Gwen well, and you two must be on a unified front."

Peter understood Schiller's implicit hint. The doctor was worried that if Gwen really had some compassion for this child, then if the conspiracy was exposed in the end, she would definitely be hurt.

After Peter went home, he also told Gwen his thoughts. He looked at his fiancée with some worry, but Gwen looked at him firmly and said, "No, I won't treat this embryo of unknown origin as my own child. Although it sounds a bit strange, I always find it hard to feel my blood connection with him."

"Besides, even if he is my child, if he must be involved in a conspiracy before he is born, then in order to protect him, I will not let him be born. Don't worry."

Peter just hugged Gwen, and the two didn't speak all night.

But Gwen had a dream that night. When she woke up the next morning, she felt a bit dazed. Peter saw that something was wrong with her, helped her up from the bed, and Gwen looked at Peter dazed and said, "Did you hear any movement last night?"

"What? Last night? No, it was very quiet all night."

"I heard someone calling me Mommy," Gwen frowned deeply.

Peter began to worry that Gwen would soften her heart. Who knew that Gwen didn't show any maternal nature? She just said very suspiciously, "I seem to have dreamed of a little girl. She kept calling me Mommy in the dream, saying she couldn't wait to see me."

"Then you..."

Gwen snorted coldly and said, "If there was no such thing, I wouldn't dare to firmly believe that this child is someone else's conspiracy. Now it seems that someone is really pushing it behind the scenes. Otherwise, why did I just decide not to give birth last night, and she called me Mommy in the dream?"

Peter couldn't help but admire her. Gwen was really clear-headed. Even if she was indeed in pregnancy and was affected by hormones like other expectant mothers, all this could not overcome her wisdom.

But Gwen soon showed a frightened expression again. She said, "If there is really something in my body that can read my thoughts, his purpose is to let me give birth to him smoothly. Then how can I drive him out?"

"Oh my god," Gwen grabbed Peter's sleeve, showed a disgusted expression, and said, "I feel like I've been parasitized."

Peter hurriedly appeased her and then said, "Don't be afraid, Gwen. The child is still too small now, and I can't capture his brain waves very accurately. But just wait for another week or so, and I will definitely be able to use equipment to separate your and his brain waves."

"And don't forget, Dr. Schiller and Mr. Stark are here. They won't allow anyone to be so arrogant in front of them. Don't worry too much."

After appeasing Gwen, Peter set off immediately, first went to the laboratory to adjust the equipment, ready to separate the mother and child's brain waves as soon as he could detect them, and then see what was going on with this child.

On the other hand, he also actively contacted Schiller, Stark, Strange, and others, asking them to investigate in many ways to see if they could find the flaws of the person behind the scenes.

Strange took magical means and found that the barrier around the fetus's soul was not the soul power of the fetus itself or the mother, but an external force. After he took samples, he was investigating who this force came from using the Sanctum Sanctorum.

Stark used technological means. He found that Gwen's brain waves were indeed affected, which proved that someone was interfering with her brain waves, confirming that someone was indeed playing tricks behind the scenes, and this child was not naturally produced.

And Schiller found Death—he modified the timeline to let Death take a big order, so Death was finally willing to give him a good face.

Under Death's investigation, it was also confirmed that their abortion means were ineffective, not because this child really had any immunity in the rules, but because of the barrier of that external force. ===== CHAPTER 2612 =====
