Chapter 705: U: The Infinity Event (Part 21)
The slightly cold incandescent lights turned on one by one, illuminating the empty corridor. The light reflected by the white walls appeared a bit dazzling. As the footsteps got closer, the laboratory door creaked, and three almost identical Spider-Men walked in.
The Amazing Spider-Man just wanted to say something, but the future Peter walked to the experimental bench with ease and introduced to them: "This is the laboratory I use. Dr. Otto is in the other room. If you don't understand anything, just press this communicator to call him."
"The door over there leads to the data room. The warehouse and the special item storage room are downstairs. You'd better go down the stairs on the right, it will be faster. In the preparation room at the end of the corridor, there is everything you need. The lighting switch is on the left, and the power switch is on the right. Be sure not to remember it wrong."
After speaking, the future Peter strode toward the data room. After a while, he brought a pile of documents and piled them in front of the two, saying: "This is the directory of the current experimental progress. To query specific details, go to the computer in the data room behind. The password needs to be asked to the artificial intelligence by pressing the communicator. It will automatically identify the voice line. Since you are also Peter Parker, you should also be able to pass."
"By the way, there is also a chemistry laboratory on the far right of the 3rd floor. I will complete some tasks handed over to me by Dr. Connors there. You can also go and see if you have time. It would be even better if you could help me finish it."
"Oh, and, there are some parts in the mechanical workshop downstairs that Mr. Stark wants me to assemble. It has to be handed in tomorrow morning. Don't forget."
"What else was there? Let me think... Oh, right, low-temperature research, but the laboratory for low-temperature technology is not in this building. You have to go to the building next to it."
"Okay, let me check the time..." The future Peter looked down at his watch and said: "Oh, now is the time to work in the lizard serum laboratory, so I'll go first, you guys get busy."
"Hey, wait a minute, don't go!" The Amazing Spider-Man stopped him and asked: "Do you do these jobs every day? Then when do you go to fight crime?"
"Uh, usually every Friday night from 7:00 to 9:00." The future Peter replied, but Peter was a bit surprised and said: "That's not right, I also go out for two hours every Wednesday night. If you are the future me, how can you compress time without authorization?"
"Come on, do you know how busy it is now? Well, you'll know sooner or later... Now multiple projects are running in parallel, every laboratory needs me, and they all say Peter is a jack-of-all-trades."
"Don't talk about me, even Gwen is busy spinning around now. She works three jobs in different biological laboratories of the Osborn Group, and old Osborn even praised her as the most diligent new-generation researcher..."
"Low-temperature technology, biological colonization, lizard serum, mechanical armor, Mercury base, solar energy, spaceship decryption, astronomical observation, near-Earth research... It's already pretty good that I can spare two hours to fight crime!"
"Well, that's true." Peter sighed and said: "It seems that I will be very busy in the next two months."
"What's going on with you guys?" The Amazing Spider-Man asked: "Then what about those super criminals who are making trouble in New York? Who will take care of them? If no one takes care of them, what about the safety of ordinary people?"
"Super criminals? Who are you referring to?" The future Peter asked.
"Um... that is the Sinister Six, haven't you heard of them? In my universe, they are the most evil criminals, doing bad things in New York every day..."
"Who exactly are they, and what abilities do they have?" The future Peter asked while touching his chin.
"Sandman, he can control sand, Electro, can control electricity, Doctor Octopus... well, Doctor Octopus is a good person in your universe, Vulture, a guy with wings, Mysterio..."
"Besides that, there are Chameleon, Rhino, etc., haven't you encountered them?" The Amazing Spider-Man spread his hands and asked very puzzled.
"Sandman, let me think, seems a bit familiar... Oh! I know!" The future Peter suddenly realized and said: "The day before yesterday, I heard Mr. Stark say that a guy who can control soil has newly arrived at the Mercury base, and he helped a lot in the foundation construction of the Mercury base. That should be the Sandman you mentioned, right?"
"And Electro, can control circuits? I remember, Lei Ting told me before that there is a guy whose ability is very similar to his, and he is currently participating in the cracking of the Kree spaceship circuit system. Could that be the Electro you mentioned?"
"As for the others... I guess they should all be very busy now." The future Peter shook his head and said: "Nick Fury is already going crazy, catching people all over the world. Let alone these guys with very useful abilities, even those mutants whose mutation abilities are not very useful have to go through layers of screening. As long as the ability is a little useful, they can find a suitable position."
"You don't know, there is a shortage of people everywhere now. If it weren't for the extreme shortage of people, how could we let such an excellent talent as Dr. Otto be responsible for a project group alone? Don't those people who make decisions know that this is actually wasting the energy of excellent researchers?"
The future Peter sighed and said: "Ordinary people are good at brainpower, but some work is not something that can be done just by having brainpower. In the process of exploring alien planets, the space environment is very deadly to ordinary people. If you are not careful, it may lead to death."
"In contrast, mutants or strange people with special abilities are the best choice. Ordinary people are responsible for research on the surface and upgrading technology, while strange people with special abilities are responsible for implementing the technology..."
"Now, both sides are very short of people. Regardless of whether they have special abilities or research capabilities, they must have been invested in this plan. If the people you mentioned really have such magical abilities, they must have been caught by Nick long ago. He won't let go of any such labor force."
Peter and the Amazing Spider-Man looked at each other. The Amazing Spider-Man shrugged and said: "Well, since that's the case, let me see what you are researching. You know, I am also a gold-medal researcher at the New York Empire State University..."
Ten minutes later, the Amazing Spider-Man fell face down on the table. He sighed, then sat up, took the document in his hand, covered his forehead and said: "What on earth is this? How can there be technology in this world that can freeze people intact without causing them any harm?"
"And this, molten steel? Is the data of this material real? When did such a material appear on Earth?"
"My God, mechanical base expansion map? This was made by Iron Man. Why doesn't the Iron Man in my world have this technology? I have never heard of it..."
"Mercury base, solar energy, what on earth do you want to do? Has humanity already started the era of space colonization?"
Peter was recording data with ease and said: "Some parts are indeed very difficult. I couldn't understand it at first either. If you can't understand it, go to the next room to find Dr. Otto, or call Dr. Yin Sen and Mr. Stark. Dr. Connors is also fine. There is always someone who can answer your questions."
The Amazing Spider-Man looked back outside the door and said awkwardly: "Let me go to Dr. Octopus to ask questions? This is really a bit..."
Five minutes later, in Otto's laboratory, the two tentacles at the top of the four tentacles were holding a whiteboard high, one tentacle on the side was holding a pen, and the other was holding a blackboard eraser. Otto was writing and drawing while speaking with spit flying:
"How many times have I said it, the data you just calculated is wrong. Didn't you go to the machine to see it? Can this run successfully?"
"Pay attention to this model, here... and here, this is the focus of our next experiment. You, go and calculate this model now, you, go and start the machine..."
Peter and the Amazing Spider-Man, who were sitting in front of Otto with small stools, looked at each other, sighed, and then each carried their small stools to do other things.
Just when the Amazing Spider-Man was standing with his hands on his hips, studying the machine he had never seen before, a loud "bang" came, and the door where the laboratory was located was kicked open directly. A group of S. H. I. E. L. D. agents rushed in. Peter jumped back subconsciously, directly bumping into Otto, who was still recording data, causing him to stagger.
Otto almost fell. Feeling his center of gravity unstable, he subconsciously controlled the tentacles to support the ground to balance his body. But the tentacle closest to the ground was approaching an experimental bench. The tentacle waved, and the experimental bench burst into a series of sparks, scaring Peter, who was still reading the document, a big jump.
Peter's spider-sense moved, he jumped back in advance, and bumped into another tentacle. That tentacle deviated and waved toward the future Peter.
The future Peter's spider-sense moved, he subconsciously threw a punch, the tentacle was knocked away, and Otto fell directly to the ground. Immediately, four long tentacles danced wildly, wrapping all three Spider-Men in.
The leader, Coulson, looked at Otto and Spider-Man tangled together, and he opened his mouth, seemingly not knowing what to say.
After a long while, Otto climbed up from the ground. Coulson waved his hand, and the S. H. I. E. L. D. agents rushed up to untangle the four tentacles that were tangled together.
Coulson cleared his throat and said: "S. H. I. E. L. D. agent Coulson, I heard that you have several Spider-Men here, come with me."
Finally, the Amazing Spider-Man, Peter, and the future Peter, who were released from the tentacles, sighed together and then followed Coulson away.
Half an hour later, in Nick Fury's office, Nick looked at the Amazing Spider-Man and said: "You mean, outside our universe, there are infinite multiverses, and every universe in the multiverse has Spider-Man, Iron Man, Dr. Otto, Dr. Connors, Dr. Yin Sen, etc., etc., geniuses????"
The Amazing Spider-Man swallowed a mouthful of saliva, because he was sure he saw the green light in Nick's eyes.
On the other side, Otto, who was cleaning up the messy laboratory alone, waved his tentacles and picked up the lampshade that had fallen into pieces. Suddenly, he heard a noise coming from the corridor.
The lighting system in the laboratory was destroyed. At this time, the room was pitch black. Otto took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes. He saw a figure with four tentacles appearing outside the door.
As the moonlight became more intense, Otto saw that the figure appearing outside the door was Spider-Man—
A Spider-Man with octopus tentacles. ===== CHAPTER 706 =====
