Chapter 153: Absolute Imprisonment, Cthulhu's Call
[Super-Dimensional Teleportation (Incomplete): A similar ability has been detected and Fused (Dimensional Teleportation). Your teleportation ability is further enhanced, allowing you to even leave the Marvel Universe and travel to other similar Universes.]
[Devour: A similar ability has been detected and Fused. Your Devour ability is further enhanced, allowing you to temporarily fill your Super-Dimensional God Body with massive amounts of energy, thereby possessing Universe-scale size and power for a certain period, while also further improving your Soul devouring capability.]
[Super Intelligence: Your brain is further enhanced, and your capacity to accept unknown forbidden knowledge is increased.]
[Absolute Imprisonment: You can summon a tentacle to imprison others. The specific strength depends on the amount of energy used; the more energy consumed, the stronger the imprisonment, capable of even confining the starry sky and the Universe (consumption will increase accordingly).]
[Voice of Charm: Your voice is filled with intense charm. Those with weak mental fortitude will involuntarily fall into your Voice of Charm.]
[Succubus 108 Moves: You have mastered the thousands of Moves passed down by the Succubus race for millions of years, engraved deep within their genes and Souls. You will be invincible!]
[Cthulhu's Call (Incomplete): You have acquired the Qi of Cthulhu and can specifically summon Old Ones from Cthulhu Mythos (limited to Clones and deities entering the Marvel Universe). Your Soul and body can controllably exhibit Cthulhu characteristics. Direct observers will automatically undergo a Sanity Check until they collapse into madness.]
Aaron was also surprised looking at the sudden, frantic increase in various characteristics.
Originally, he had only wanted to create some discreet henchmen.
He never expected that the Interdimensional Summoningability could bring him so many surprises.
There were several practical abilities.
Among them, Super-Dimensional Teleportation, Absolute Imprisonment, and the upgraded Devour ability were methods he currently lacked greatly.
If he wasn't worried about summoning some terrifying existence that might instantly shatter the Universe,
Aaron could even continuously summon and smelt Interdimensional Creatures to constantly strengthen himself.
However, Aaron also knew
that this kind of thing couldn't last forever.
After all,
no one knew what might be summoned next time.
Maybe it wouldn't be a Beholder Clone next time, but the Beholder Prime Body itself.
Perhaps he might even summon some Super Otaku.
Of course, it was also possible to summon some Dimensional Beauties.
Cough, cough.
Aaron composed himself.
Another thought involuntarily popped into his mind.
A mere Beholder Clone possessed so many characteristics.
What about its True Body?
It was already confirmed that the Beholder was an Outer-Dimensional Demon originating from outside the Marvel Universe.
This could be seen just from the Super-Dimensional Teleportation ability.
He was not a native lifeform of the Marvel Universe.
Devouring it would not necessarily trigger the collapse of the Universe.
However, for now, Aaron was just thinking about it.
Currently, facing the Beholder True Body, he didn't have much chance of winning.
He would specifically summon the Beholder True Bodyfor fun when he had the chance later.
"Greetings, Master!"
As four clear and charming voices rang out,
The soft and seductive sounds pulled Aaron back to reality.
The fully formed Albedo, Lilith, Harpy, and Mia, leading their respective legions, knelt on one knee before Aaronto show submission.
Aaron had injected his personal mark into their Souls and bodies, ensuring absolute submission to him until Death.
The mark Aaron left behind was a Super-Dimensional Existence.
No matter how far apart they were, they could not violate Aaron's commands.
Since their birth,
they possessed a partial memory of their creation.
Therefore, they regarded Aaron as their creator and Master, viewing him as their everything.
Aaron nodded, signaling them to rise.
Luckily, they were all shadows; otherwise, the small private room could never accommodate hundreds of people.
"They are..."
Selene was too astonished by Aaron's miraculous act of creation to speak.
She had never imagined that Shadow abilities could be used in this way.
He could effortlessly create a Shadow Army possessing self-awareness.
Heavens,
If Aaron truly desired it, couldn't he create countless Dark Shadow Legions at any time?
Destroy the World?
Selene even wondered if Aaron might be the Dark Emperor.
Otherwise, why could he control the night so easily?
"They are the Shadow Legion, consisting of Albedo of the Phantom Legion, Lilith of the Wraith Legion, Harpy of the Harpy Legion, and Mia of the Snake Legion."
"From now on, the Shadow Legion will be directly subordinate to the U.S. Hellfire Club, responsible for club security and executing special missions."
"I am their primary target of responsibility, and the other core members—that is, you—are their secondary targets of responsibility."
Aaron thought for a moment and casually conjured masks bearing his own mark.
He gave one each to Selene, Emma, and Raven.
"These are Shadow Masks. They possess the ability to change according to your will, transforming autonomously based on the wearer's thoughts."
"Besides me, the Shadow Legion will also obey the wearer of this item."
Aaron took out more masks and casually transformed them into beads.
There would be more core members in the future.
These belonged to them.
Selene curiously took the mask. With a thought, the Dark Mask transformed into her likeness.
Seeing this, she had a brilliant idea.
The mask transformed again, turning into a diamond ring engraved with Selene (Heart) Aaron.
Solemnly, she placed the ring on her left ring finger.
Selene raised her hand high, looked at the ring sparkling with diamond luster, and nodded in satisfaction.
"I love you to death!"
At this moment, a stream of information surged into Selene's mind through the ring.
Selene instantly understood the terrifying nature of the Shadow Legion.
These legions, in addition to their powerful combat strength and terrifying life-saving abilities, were also completely capable of household management.
Compared to them, Selene even felt like a useless person!
Besides being a hot weapon and being fiercely used by Aaron, she knew nothing else.
Selene immediately felt extremely ashamed.
Emma and Raven, seeing this scene, were briefly confused, then immediately began to imitate them.
Aaron glared at Selene, "Look at you, they're only about ten years old!"
Selene quickly made a pleading gesture.
Aaron shook his head.
Meanwhile, the four leaders of the Shadow Legionwatched Selene and the others' actions with immense envy.
However, they knew their place and waited for orders with bowed heads.
"If only they could have real human bodies, then the Hellfire Club could even save on the salaries for waitresses."
Selene revealed the greedy nature of a capitalist.
She walked over to Albedo and carefully observed her posture.
The night cloaked them, allowing only their dark silhouettes to hint at their appearance and figures.
If they could transform into humans, they would definitely make excellent waitresses.
Aaron's mouth twitched slightly, "Alright, they are a legion, not waitresses."
Selene shrugged, "A versatile legion, indeed. But you're right, waitresses are destined to serve those stinky men, so it's better not to let them have it easy."
Aaron gave a few more instructions, then left first.
Selene ordered the legions to merge into the shadows, taking only Albedo and Lilith, who were deliberately dressed in light-colored clothes, to personally foster a relationship with Raven and Emma.
Emotional bonding must start from childhood.
She was, after all, determined to become the Hellfire's Matriarch.
Albedo and Lilith, with their complete human forms, after putting on clothes and some disguise, looked like female ninjas from Japan.
Moreover, they could move about in sunlight, a special characteristic Aaron had bestowed upon them.
However, under normal circumstances, they did not like sunlight, as it would weaken their strength.
Selene took them along simply because she wanted to be lazy.
Albedo and Lilith were both excellent at childcare.
Looking at their size, the children wouldn't go hungry, but alas, they were ultimately just shadows.
After an initial period of adjustment, Emma and Ravenquickly became familiar with Albedo and the others.
Albedo and the others didn't have the baggage of adults and easily got along with children.
Of course, the prerequisite was being able to adapt to their dark true forms.
Aaron did not pay attention to how Selene and the others arranged the Shadow Legion.
After leaving Hellfire,
he went to find Peggy Carter.
Although he didn't have to worry about being cuckolded, meeting her occasionally could always better foster their relationship.
When Aaron arrived at a military Base,
Peggy Carter, who was just about to leave work and go home, heard the news and rushed out.
At this time, she had changed into a heroic female military uniform, but this could not completely hide her alluring figure.
Aaron knew how perfect they were; although not as good as Daisy, they also had an E-cup that stood out among the crowd... but they were, are, and will only ever be Aaron's alone.
"How did you know I was here?"
Peggy Carter was surprised; she had never told Aaronabout her mission.
"I thought I never told you, but nothing can be hidden from these eyes of mine."
Peggy grew more uneasy upon hearing this, wanting to say something.
Just then, Aaron glanced past Peggy.
Dr. Abraham was leaving side by side with Steve.
Steve looked very awkward, and when he saw Peggy, his eyes lit up.
However, when he saw Aaron again, his eyes instantly lost their luster.
After not seeing her for one night, Peggy Carter was even more beautiful.
She seemed to have been nourished by something, appearing more charming and alluring.
Anyone with eyes could see that Peggy had a man.
Steve was still thinking that after joining the military, he would have more opportunities to interact with Carter.
However, he didn't expect that Carter's eyes no longer held any other man.
She constantly wore a stern face, strictly guiding their training, and even gained a new title: Ice Lady.
Unapproachable, unyielding.
Otherwise, one would feel a bone-chilling cold.
Steve even secretly wondered if Carter and Aaron had some kind of bad conflict.
But now it seemed,
it wasn't a conflict at all; she had already been 'convinced' by Aaron and could no longer accommodate other 'sizes'.
Steve understood that he had lost his chance.
Peggy Carter had completely become Aaron's.
Abraham looked at the two and said with a smile, "So our Ice Lady is still passionate."
Carter turned back and smiled sheepishly. Aaron nodded to Abraham, and then the two continued their conversation as if no one else was there.
Peggy Carter appeared hesitant.
She had thought all day,
realizing she had become addicted to something called Aaron.
Every time she thought about hiding something from Aaron, she felt uneasy, as if it were a huge sin.
So, she decided to come clean.
"Actually... actually, I'm an Agent. I joined the Strategic Scientific Reserve when I was nineteen."
"I didn't want to hide it from you, but this organization is very important."
"It was established by the United Nations, gathering the World's best Agents and scientists, a special agency to combat fascism."
"Now the Strategic Scientific Reserve has launched a very important project, which is..."
"The Super Soldier Project, right?"
Aaron added.
Peggy Carter looked up in surprise.
"Peggy, have you ever thought that you could also become a Super Soldier?"
Aaron's gaze met hers, his tone soft.
Peggy was tempted for a moment, but she thought of her past experiences and shook her head.
"The Super Soldier Project aims to create soldiers with extraordinary abilities, who will possess greater strength to turn the tide of war and defeat fascism."
"Therefore, this project requires the best, most powerful warriors. Women are innately weaker than men in physical strength..."
"Is that so? But I don't think he's stronger than you."
Aaron pointed at Steve, with his thin physique and the clumsy appearance he showed on the training ground, never having received any systematic training program.
No matter how you looked at it, he didn't seem like a strong person.
Peggy Carter joined the Strategic Scientific Reserve at nineteen and was now twenty-two.
Even though she was a woman, she had mastered many combat techniques, carried out many dangerous missions, and saved Howard Stark.
At least at this time, Peggy Carter was definitely no worse than Steve.
Peggy fell silent.
She naturally understood the reason.
In fact, the higher-ups subconsciously believed that women were not capable of handling big matters, so all recruits for this project were male.
But she didn't understand, and neither did many generals.
Why Abraham would specifically choose Steve, this 'weakling'.
"Actually, I think you are more suitable to be a Super Soldier, at least more suitable than Steve."
Aaron said seriously.
Peggy excitedly hugged Aaron; Aaron was perhaps the only man who affirmed her abilities.
Even though this wouldn't decide anything.
Peggy shook her head, "Forget it, I'm a soldier, I just need to strictly complete the training plan."
"Super Soldier... is still a soldier, isn't it?"
"If you really want to... actually, I can help you!"
Chapter 154: Welcome to My Universe, Back to the Future
Peggy Carter, bewildered, followed Aaron to the Hellfire Club.
Her mind was filled with Aaron's words.
Aaron could make her a Super Soldier?
How?
Peggy had originally intended to lay all her cards on the table.
Since she was with Aaron, she shouldn't hide anything from him.
But when Peggy arrived at Hellfire,
she discovered that,
Aaron had even more secrets!
"You're from seventy years in the future? And you drink with Howard Stark's son?"
"You're also a God?!"
"You created a World?"
"Or the Dominator of several Planets?"
Peggy stared blankly at the Shadowmen of the Phantom Legion walking past her.
Then she looked at a woman from the Snake Shadow Legion carrying a tray.
She felt like she had entered a novel's World:
"My Husband is a God," "The God's Secret Lover," "My One-Night Stand with a God from Seventy Years Later," "The God and His Doting Wife"
Oh my God, it must be April Fool's Day today!
Or maybe it's Halloween?
Peggy laid her cards on the table, and Aaron did too.
Peggy thought she had many secrets, but now it seemed what she was hiding was nothing.
Aaron *is* the secret itself!
Peggy felt her worldview had been overturned.
"Don't believe it?"
Aaron smiled, knowing that for ordinary people seventy years ago, it was a fact difficult to accept, even with the wildest imagination.
After all, in this timeline, the concept of time travel had only just been proposed and was not yet widespread.
Peggy wasn't the Black Queen; she wasn't inherently unusual.
Aaron thought for a moment, then raised his hand and created a door.
He gestured for them to enter.
Selene's expression shifted, "Is this the future, seventy years from now?"
Aaron didn't speak, just smiled.
Selene grew even more curious and walked forward to push open the door.
She stepped into the deep passage.
Emma and Raven, led by Albedo and Lilith, also entered the door.
Peggy hesitated for a moment, then walked in too.
When they passed through the passage,
they arrived in a vast, dark night sky.
The night sky was boundless.
Faintly, bright starlight, like candlelight, flickered.
They were far away, the only light in the entire darkness.
"Welcome to my World, one of the countless Worlds within me."
Aaron's figure emerged from the firmament in all directions, his voice both familiar and strange.
It made one feel small from the bottom of their heart.
Aaron's World? Worlds within him? Countless ones?
Selene realized something, her expression growing increasingly excited, her delicate body trembling uncontrollably.
"Oh, I can't take it..."
She was about to reach a climax and collapse!
Aaron still didn't appear,
yet the scale of the entire Universe began to draw closer to Peggy and the others.
They didn't move,
but the entire World, the entire space, bent and folded,
and the tiny stars approached at a visible speed.
In an instant,
they had traversed thousands upon tens of thousands of light-years,
arriving at one of the many star systems.
A star system with a Sun smaller than our own.
And outside the star,
there were eight Planets.
These Planets were almost identical.
If Nick Fury were here, he would surely scream: It's Titan! It's the Planet Titan!
This was the Planet Titan that Aaron had transformed.
He was slightly more familiar with this Planet than with Earth.
So he directly used the primal furnace to create them, serving as living Planets in the star system.
This was one of tens of thousands of experimental Universes,
he attempted to imitate the creation of the God, skipping tens of billions of years, to create living Planets.
In addition,
he also used some Universes to simulate the Big Bang.
To understand the rules, one must start by deducing the creation of the Universe.
This allowed him to better understand the underlying logic of the Universe, and thus grasp more concepts.
"Before you is my created Phoenix System No. 1 star system, Planets Titan 1-8."
"Don't be surprised, Planet Titan is actually not much larger than Earth, and the overall mass of the Phoenix System is only one-third of the Solar System."
The Phoenix System's star was smaller than the Sun,
and the Planets Titan were generally smaller than Saturn, Jupiter, and others.
Neither its overall volume nor mass was comparable to the Solar System.
At most, it could be considered a small star system.
But that was how it was for Aaron,
yet for Peggy, Selene, and the others,
they were so stunned by the scene Aaron had shown them that they remained rooted to the spot, completely motionless.
Selene's body trembled continuously; she had already given in first.
"Now, do you believe I am from the future?"
Of course, they believed!
Who could not believe?
Aaron possessed one, or even more, Universes.
And he had created so many stars.
Who would dare say Aaron was lying?
They had to believe it!
They saw with their own eyes,
one of the Planets Titan, not much larger than Earth, being pulled by a mysterious force, like a basketball, bouncing along a strange path.
Vaguely, they saw a chicken dancing.
"The logic of this Universe is not yet fully perfected, and your bodies currently have difficulty adapting to this environment."
"So ladies, we should leave."
That deep voice came from high above,
all the Planets Titan converged into a grand avenue, a dazzling starlit path, a spatial avenue leading outside the body.
And the more distant star clusters were flickering at a special frequency.
Peggy, an Agent, and Selene, who was well-read and had a strong memory, vaguely detected the logic of the flickering starlight.
Lilith spoke, "The starlight is saying: goodbye!"
Peggy and the other woman suddenly understood.
Yes, it was Morse Code!
The stars were waving goodbye to them!
If all this wasn't an illusion,
then... Aaron's very existence had surpassed the limits of their imagination!
At this moment,
Peggy and Selene felt goosebumps all over their bodies.
Controlling the stars at will.
Shifting stars with a single thought.
What kind of immense power was this?
Even the legendary God would be no more than this, right?
A God from the future... they believed him.
They had no choice but to believe.
Emma discovered something and caught a 'speck of dust' from the starry sky.
Space was folding,
they waved to the stars, and in a few breaths, following the line of the Planet Titan, they arrived at another large door.
Peggy took a deep breath and pushed open the door.
The familiar Hellfire Club appeared before their eyes.
Looking at Aaron sitting quietly on the sofa, with his legs crossed,
they were in a daze.
Emma opened her right hand, "Wow, is this a meteorite?"
Everyone looked, a small, silver-gray metal of unknown material rested quietly in Emma's hand.
Clearly, none of this was an illusion.
"Don't blink, look closely."
Aaron chuckled, and the meteorite reorganized according to his will, transforming into two silver-gray water droplets.
"These are for little Emma, and these are for little Raven. You can see them as a blessing from another Universe."
"Keep them with you, and surprises will happen."
Emma and Raven didn't understand, but they carefully hung the water droplets around their necks.
Although they were plain silver-gray necklaces, they loved them and thought they were the best necklaces in the World.
Selene wasn't envious, because she already had the best gift.
Stroking her big belly, this was personally infused by Aaron.
Peggy Carter came back to her senses; she wasn't envious either, because Aaron was about to give her *her* gift.
Aaron called Peggy over,
"Have you thought about it? Becoming a brand new you."
After a brief hesitation, Peggy Carter nodded, "What do I need to do?"
She was very smart.
She knew Aaron's purpose in laying his cards on the table might not be so simple.
Aaron reiterated his purpose.
Upon learning that Aaron was about to return to his original timeline,
Peggy felt quite reluctant.
"Don't worry, I'll be in the Reality Universe for the next three months. Every time you have a holiday, you can come directly to me."
The drops of Water from Emma and Raven are the tools that connect me. They possess cross-time communication functions, and my power resides within them, allowing me to instantly bridge the space-time between two eras."
Hearing this, Peggy felt much more relaxed.
She even laughed, saying, "Then can we come find you every day after work?"
"In that case, it looks like I'll have to stay in bed for the entire month," Aaron replied seriously.
Peggy and Selene both understood and burst into laughter.
Three months of separation meant they could meet one day per year on average.
Meeting twice a month was equivalent to meeting every hour.
This was much better than some long-distance relationships.
Moreover, this was only during the initial busy period.
Once they gradually moved from the front stage to behind the scenes and secured successors, they could move directly into the real World.
After more than sixty years, once they fully aligned with 2010, they could be together openly and honestly.
Thinking about it, it was acceptable.
Even without this arrangement, Peggy Carter, as an Agent, and Selene could never live like ordinary people anyway.
Next, Aaron deliberately enhanced Peggy Carter.
The focus was on strengthening her lifespan and illusions.
Peggy Carter would remain eternally youthful and could use illusions to change her appearance and hide her identity from outsiders.
She also gained super strength and powerful healing abilities.
And the standard configuration: psychic immunity.
Aaron also specifically left a small Chaos Seed within her.
All of his women possessed one.
This seed contained the essence of his power.
It was an insurance mechanism Aaron deliberately left behind.
If they encountered an overloaded energy reaction or an intrusion of super-dimensional mystical power,
the seed would automatically contact Aaron and simultaneously create an indestructible Force Field Shield, strong enough to block black hole-level attacks and screen against mental and physical contamination from Loki and other entities.
No matter where they were,
Aaron could sense them and react immediately.
Not even time and space could block the mutual sensing between them.
In fact, this seed was one of Aaron's cells.
It contained a self-sustaining Universe inside, providing continuous energy support.
It was just that they usually could not command this power.
Moreover, when necessary, this seed could automatically absorb them and instantly teleport them to other places in the Universe, or even to other Universes.
Therefore, Aaron also granted them Super Adaptation Ability.
They could survive and adapt to almost any harsh environment.
Holding out until Aaron arrived would pose absolutely no problem.
Subsequently, Aaron also granted Raven and Emmainfinite lifespan, enhanced their individual strength, and reinforced their Mutant abilities.
Emma immediately completed a Secondary Mutation.
Her strength was even greater than hers in X-Men: First Class.
Peggy Carter, who had just gained her powers, went with Albedo and the others to adapt to their new abilities.
Aaron, meanwhile, called Selene aside alone.
He directly transmitted a set of memories into her brain.
"Is this the script?" Selene guessed.
Aaron nodded. "From now on, the Hellfire Club will mainly develop according to what is recorded, and for other matters, you will rely on your own improvisation."
Selene nodded, quickly browsing the "script" in her mind.
She felt like she was about to become a Super Director, controlling everything along the entire timeline, using the Earth as a chessboard.
Was this what it felt like to be a God?
It was truly amazing!
Following this, Aaron stayed at Hellfire for two more days.
Peggy also took two days off to spend quality time with Aaron.
It was during these two days that Selene, without anyone noticing, arranged for the normal Deaths of the other core members.
Under the gaze of the internal members, Aaron ascended to the throne.
He became the first and only Supreme King.
He stood above all core members and would be regarded by the future Hellfire Club as the most mysterious and terrifying Dark Emperor!
After completely settling all matters, Aaron returned to the future World to check the final experimental results.
New York, 2010.
The television was still broadcasting the report about A.I.M.'s complete destruction by a giant Dragon the previous night.
Tessa and the others were still lying quietly in bed, as if nothing had changed.
However, when Aaron connected to the network, he found that the timeline had undergone subtle modifications.
But the past and the present were still on the same line.
He had not created a time branch; he had genuinely reversed the past!.
Chapter 155: Gwen the Spider, Web Weaving Incident
"The Curse of the Yasukuni Shrine: Starting in 1943, every December 13th, the Yasukuni Shrine is subjected to a massive downpour, lasting one day and totaling 300,000 tons. According to the judgment of Grand Master Pin Shi, this is a curse originating from Eastern Ghosts!"
"1945 was a day of sorrow for America: Captain AmericaSteve went missing in the Greenland Sea, and Peggy Carter succeeded him as Captain America..."
"In 1963, President Kennedy had a bizarre idea..."
"In 1973, during the Bahrain Peace Accord, ProfessorBolivar Trask was assassinated by a Mutant codenamed Mystique, marking the first appearance of Mutants in the public eye."
"November 28, 1974: The famous Genius Tony Starkcreated his first circuit board; two years later, he built his first engine."
"December 16, 1991: Stark founder Howard and his wife were attacked. The next day, Obadiah became the interim CEO of Stark Industries, filling the void left by the legendary founder."
"In 2005, the Green Monster rampaged through New York..."
"May 1, 2009: Tony Stark was attacked..."
Overall, the important timeline had not changed.
But in some details, subtle changes had occurred.
However, the timeline was twisted back to the normal time point by some force.
No matter how many detours it took, it would return to the line where Aaron resided through strange means.
Those who had intimate relationships with Aaron still retained their previous experiences.
"It seems that the timelines of the people connected to me are fixed. Theoretically, their past cannot be affected by any temporal power other than mine?"
Aaron speculated privately.
This was a good thing; at least he didn't have to worry about certain time-controlling entities, such as Khonshu the Moon God or Kang the Conqueror, randomly altering time.
Aaron was equivalent to a temporal node.
The time he Transmigrated to was another node.
The two nodes connected to form a line.
How the line changed during this process didn't matter, because it would ultimately arrive at Aaron's node.
No time branches could be created during this period.
No other parallel Universes would be generated.
If Kang The One Who Remains knew this, he would probably shout that this was the sacred timeline he wanted!
However, the time Aaron was in was another sacred timeline anchored by Aaron himself.
At least, the past was this way.
As for the future that hadn't happened yet, Aaron wasn't certain.
The future held infinite possibilities.
Before it occurred, nothing could be guaranteed.
One thing was certain, though: individuals like Kang could not shake the timeline Aaron was on.
As for Eternity... that was hard to say.
As Aaron watched, he was suddenly drawn to a piece of news.
"Spider-Man Appears in New York."
Spider-Man? Oh no, it was Spider-Woman!
Looking at the fleeting black-and-white figure on the news,
Aaron confirmed it wasn't Felicia, as she wouldn't wear such an immature, low-quality costume.
She preferred black leather, the Black Cat Costume, which resembled Catwoman but had its own unique style.
Aaron carefully looked at another image.
Having confirmed the size, the Spider was indeed his little secretary, Gwen Stacy!
His eyes were like a ruler; the error margin for height, weight, and measurements was less than 0.0001!
Aaron was a bit surprised.
He had always thought Peter Parker would become Spider-Man,
but instead, Gwen Stacy became Spider-Woman first.
But then a problem arose.
"Theoretically, only one Spider-Man can be born in a Universe."
"If Gwen Stacy is Spider-Man, then what about Peter Parker?"
Aaron was very curious about Peter Parker's future,
but then he thought again,
and he realized something was wrong.
If Gwen truly became the Spider-Man of this World,
then she would also inevitably lose an "Uncle Ben".
"Uncle Ben" doesn't just refer to Ben;
if there's a Ben, Ben will die; if there's no Ben, then Aunt Mei will die, for example, the Holland Spider of the sacred timeline.
But if there's neither Ben nor Aunt Mei... then the Spider-Man's most beloved elder, the person who cares about her the most, will die.
And Gwen Stacy... "George Stacy!"
Aaron thought of what happened in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.
According to the Worldview of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and Across the Spider-Verse,
the Universes of Spider-Men are woven into an invisible and vast Web of Life and Destiny, formed by each person's life.
This web is composed of countless lines and countless nodes.
Each node is an absolute fixed point in time, a major event.
It can also be called a Web Weaving Incident.
The death of "Uncle Ben" and the famous kiss between Spider-Man and MJ.
Are both among the nodes.
In addition, there's also the chief inspector related to Spider-Man dying to save people, and so on.
Now, Gwen's father, George, is an chief inspector!
If these nodes do not occur,
the connections of these nodes could break, leading to a Universe-destroying crisis.
It's a bit like the Supreme Dark Doctor Strange in the What If...? Universe.
His World collapsed into a small ball because he tried to change an absolute fixed point in time, leaving only him alive in the vast Universe.
Aaron wasn't sure if this Universe was also one of the Spider-Multiverses,
that thing is inherently ethereal.
Unless the Weaving Great Master is found.
Aaron thought for a moment,
it seemed... even if it wasn't a Spider-Multiverse, these things would still happen.
At least in his memory,
all Spider-Men have experienced similar scenes and uttered that very famous line: "With great power comes great responsibility."
So, will a Web Weaving Incident occur here with GwenSpider?
"It seems... I need to pay a little more attention to the little spider from now on."
Gwen is his little secretary, and Aaron doesn't want anything major to happen to her that might affect her work.
Thinking of this,
Aaron blinked and directly called Gwen.
After waiting for a while,
Gwen's breathless voice came from the other end, "I'm sorry, boss, I just finished dealing with some small trouble. Do you have anything to instruct?"
"I'm at the Aaron's Group building right now, why aren't you in the office?"
Aaron lied with a straight face.
Gwen's heart skipped a beat, "Um... I had a document that required on-site inspection, and I'll be back in about ten minutes."
Gwen glanced at the document she had deliberately placed in the lining of her uniform; she wasn't lying.
However, during this process,
she conveniently took down a few armed N-word, and then stopped a bank robbery.
Aaron was silent for a moment.
Gwen was quite flustered, always feeling that Aaron had already discovered her hidden truth.
After all... as one of Aaron's closest secretaries, she knew that this boss was no Mortal.
And Aaron's direct secretarial office definitely doesn't keep idlers!
At a glance,
there were The three Arcee sisters, who are silicon-based life forms, Ghost, who has quantum phasing abilities, Kitty, who can phase through walls, Clarice, who can teleport, Anna, who can absorb abilities, and the ruthless Felicia.
Even Hill, she was an Agent before.
There wasn't a single ordinary person!
Before yesterday, Gwen had always felt out of place with them because she wasn't "special" enough.
But yesterday, after work, when she stayed in the building for some reason, she was bitten by a spider,
and she successfully integrated in.
Excited, Gwen found an errand to go out first thing in the morning to test her abilities.
But she didn't expect that on her first day as a superhero,
she would be caught by her boss during a surprise inspection.
What should I do if I'm caught by my boss during a surprise inspection? Waiting online, it's urgent!
"Gwen, is there anything else you haven't told me?"
Aaron's voice came again, striking directly at Gwen's biggest concern.
"As your boss, I think I have an obligation to care about my little secretary's personal physical condition."
"You agree, don't you?"
Aaron instantly left the Villa,
and arrived at the top of the tallest building in the Brooklyn District.
He looked down at this modern metropolis.
"Boss, I..."
"No need to speak, I'm at the most conspicuous place in the Brooklyn District right now, you'll see me when you get here."
Aaron hung up the phone, preparing to have a good talk with his little secretary.
When Gwen, who was in the Brooklyn District, heard this,
she looked left and right,
considering Aaron's identity,
she subconsciously looked up at the sky.
She saw the tallest building.
She didn't know if it was a connection from the unseen,
Gwen changed direction and "flew" towards the building.
Using the nearest tall building to reach the middle-upper section of the building,
Gwen climbed up the ninety-degree building with her hands and feet.
When she reached the very top of the building,
she found Aaron leaning against a wall, deep in thought with his eyes closed.
Gwen was about to speak, but she looked at Aaron's head,
and she, as if by a Ghost's whim, remained silent,
instead, she stayed quiet and carefully climbed from another direction to above Aaron's head.
She hung upside down like that, tiptoed to Aaron's front,
and looked at him inverted.
Looking at her boss's facial contours, Gwen's face was a little red.
However, at this moment,
Aaron suddenly opened his eyes and met Gwen's gaze.
"Gwen Stacy, or rather... Spider-Woman?"
Chapter 156: Ghost Spider Gwen, the One and Only Gwen!
Aaron suddenly opened his eyes, startling Gwen.
However, when she saw Aaron's eyes,
Gwen immediately became captivated.
Such beautiful eyes.
Such a pleasant voice... "Gwen? Gwen?!"
Seeing Gwen remain silent, Aaron took a half-step forward, bringing his face directly close to Gwen's.
Their hairs seemed to intertwine, creating some kind of static electricity.
It shocked Gwen, making her instinctively gasp "Ah".
The warm breath that rushed over her was fragrant.
Aaron raised an eyebrow, seeing Gwen still hadn't moved away,
he thought for a moment and directly went in for it.
Gwen's eyes widened, feeling something slyly intertwining.
Her entire face visibly reddened at an astonishing speed.
However, she didn't back away; instead, she instinctively hugged Aaron's head. So fragrant, so nice to smell... As a little secretary, Gwen had an exaggerated filter for Aaron.
She subconsciously regarded Aaron as a very capable, handsome, and successful entrepreneur and boss.
Although Aaron was indeed very capable.
It's just that this boss was a little bit of a playboy.
But for some reason, even though she knew Aaron had many women, she still couldn't help but want to get closer.
However, after learning that Aaron's secretarial office was also full of hidden talents, Gwen occasionally felt a bit inferior.
As merely an "ordinary" student at Empire State University, she was truly unremarkable compared to her Seniors and even her Juniors.
Consequently, she usually spent most of her time learning how to better handle various arrangements.
During the remaining time, she would also study diligently, striving to obtain at least two Dr. degrees so that she wouldn't feel so detached from the "group."
She wanted to ensure she didn't look so useless within this group.
Until last night,
she obtained superpowers.
She was secretly delighted because she had a chance to integrate into this group.
If gaining abilities gave her confidence, then this kiss completely untied a knot in Gwen's heart.
A long time later,
Aaron and Gwen sat side-by-side, hanging upside down.
The two of them sat inverted like this, ignoring gravity, viewing the great metropolis from a different angle.
The Sun rose high, and its warm rays shone on the two of them, making the moment exceptionally cozy.
"This is the first time I've 'slacked off' during work, and you caught me."
Gwen savored the feeling from moments ago, a blush still lingering on her face.
Aaron softly said, "I didn't find out; your photo was posted online by a Daily Bugle reporter."
"I recognized that figure as you the moment I saw the picture!"
Hearing this, Gwen couldn't help but turn around, her beautiful eyes slightly gleaming.
She had put on a crude, self-made, fully protective "battle suit."
Even her father couldn't tell.
Yet Aaron could determine her identity just from a photograph!
Could it be... Aaron noticed me a long time ago and likes me?
Gwen felt as if she had eaten honey.
This is mutual affection!
Aaron didn't use his Psychic Ability; he merely guessed what she was thinking based on Gwen's burning gaze.
He really wanted to say that phrase, but he wasn't dense; sometimes, leaving things unsaid was better for both parties.
Gwen pursed her lips. "Maybe I should consult the Legal Department to see if an employer constantly observing a young female subordinate during work hours constitutes sexual harassment."
Aaron laughed carelessly, "Do you need me to introduce you to a few? Lawyers specializing in workplace sexual harassment."
Gwen pretended to think seriously. "Forget it. Good jobs like this aren't easy to find. I'm now an outstanding graduate of Empire State University, I gain experience managing a top-tier large corporation, and I receive a substantial annual salary."
"I wouldn't want you to get locked up over this, causing me to lose this great job."
Aaron raised an eyebrow. "So, I'm free to harass you then?"
Gwen snorted, "Then you better be careful. My father is the New York City Director, so if you don't want to wear handcuffs, you'd better not get too close to me."
Aaron leaned closer, pressing tightly against Gwen.
Gwen didn't speak, staring straight ahead. Her eyelashes could faintly be seen trembling.
After a little while longer,
Aaron wrapped his arm directly around her waist.
Honestly, sitting upside down like this wasn't bad.
Gwen still didn't object.
Originally, Aaron had wanted to talk about the Web Weaving Incident,
but seeing this scene, he decided to save it for another time.
It would be inappropriate to spoil such a beautiful moment with serious talk.
It was at this moment,
Aaron suddenly looked up.
He felt the space fluctuating violently.
Gwen also noticed the anomaly.
The next instant,
this spatial fluctuation instantly swallowed the two of them.
Aaron could have reacted,
but he thought of something.
Could this fluctuation be Kingpin messing with his Super Particle Collider?
Although he didn't know why it suddenly happened while he was being intimate with Gwen, Aaron decided to observe the situation for a while.
This spatial power,
separated Aaron and Gwen.
However, Aaron kept track of Gwen's condition.
After confirming she was fine,
Aaron began observing his surroundings.
New York, Brooklyn District.
Elite school Vision Academy... the Underground EmperorKingpin, and... the Death of Spider-Man Peter!
"New York hero, Spider-Man Peter, found dead at the age of 26..."
"Peter Parker, a 26-year-old graduate student and part-time photographer."
"He operated as Spider-Man for over ten years, but last night, our good neighbor left us forever..."
Aaron looked at the news broadcasting on the giant screen,
That's right, this is the Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.
In other words, this is Universe 1610, where Miles the Little Black Spider is located.
In this World, the original Spider-Man was still Peter Parker.
However, because Kingpin used the Space-Time Collider, attempting to change history and bring his wife and son back from another Universe.
Violent space-time fluctuations erupted when the particle collider was operating,
leading to multiple Spider-Men from other Universes intruding.
Simultaneously intruding was a Radioactive Spider from Universe 42.
This spider bit Miles Morales.
This turned Miles, who was supposed to become the villain Prowler, into Spider-Man.
And it was this action
that indirectly led to the Death of Peter.
Because in the same Universe, there can only be one Spider-Man.
Between Miles and Peter, one had to die, so Peter, as the Senior, had to quickly meet his end while battling Kingpin.
Aaron and Felicia don't count, because the abilities of Spider-Man are just one of their many powers; they are not Spider-Man from any perspective.
After Peter's Death,
Miles subsequently took over the role of Spider-Man and began the path of fighting crime alongside the Spider-Men from other Universes.
Aaron briefly recalled the plot.
Well, this is the story of a black child becoming a hero.
Whether it was the Peter from the original World, the middle-aged crisis Peter from another, or the other Spider-Men,
they were all just foils for the growth of the Little Black Spider.
Everyone revolved around the Little Black Spider, either guiding him, accompanying him, or falling in love with him... However, with Aaron's arrival, Miles and Gwen had absolutely no chance.
Gwen is too outstanding to be given to someone else; it would be a shame.
Moreover, it was impossible for Gwen's eyes and heart to hold another man.
The Little Black Spider? Go play somewhere else.
If he dared to harbor designs on Gwen, Aaron wouldn't mind replacing the Spider-Man.
If a black kid can be Spider-Man, there's no reason why others can't.
Could it be that among billions of people, they couldn't find the next suitable candidate?
After confirming the situation of this World,
Aaron walked straight toward Vision Academy in the Brooklyn District.
If his memory served him correctly,
Vision Academy was the center of the entire incident.
Gwen was also at Vision Academy at this time.
Ten minutes later,
Aaron and Gwen met successfully.
Gwen looked serious, scanning her surroundings, and nervously said, "Boss..."
"Call me Aaron."
"Aa... Aaron."
Gwen was a little uncomfortable, but seeing the domineering Aaron, she chose to obey obediently.
"I have just confirmed our surroundings. We are no longer in our original timeline but in a parallel Universe."
"Furthermore, the Spider-Man of this Universe is Peter, and he was brutally murdered by someone else last night."
"My Spider-Sense tells me I should come to Vision Academy; the answers we need are here."
Gwen looked thoughtfully at Vision Academy. "I think... we can try to blend in."
"Become a student?"
Although Gwen was already a university student, she was very young, and there would be no problem pretending to be a high schooler.
"A student? You want me to be a student?"
"Alright, maybe you could apply to be... a teacher?" Gwensuggested after thinking.
"Teacher and student... that sounds great!"
Aaron nodded. With the knowledge he possessed, he was more than qualified to teach any subject.
This was the worth of eight Dr. degrees!
Gathering intelligence was secondary;
Aaron primarily enjoyed teaching students, especially young female students like Gwen.
But the premise was,
that Gwen and he had Transmigrated to a week ago, just like Gwen from Universe 65.
Aaron wouldn't mind enjoying the alternative experience of teacher and student with Gwen for a week.
But the problem now was,
their arrival had already caused a timeline shift.
Peter was already dead.
Miles also became Spider-Man.
The main storyline has already begun.
So Aaron nodded, then shook his head.
"We don't have much time to play teacher-student games. If we keep playing, this Universe might have to say goodbye."
Gwen was startled by his words.
Looking at Aaron's calm expression,
She asked curiously, "You've already figured out the reason?"
"Of course."
Aaron nodded, gesturing in a certain direction, "Look, our main character is here!"
In the distance, the 'Little Black Spider' Miles walked out of school.
When he saw Aaron and Gwen, he was attracted by the outstanding-looking Gwen.
He felt a special urge inside, driving him to talk to her.
However... when he saw Aaron, he felt inferior.
Next to Aaron, he felt like a coal-stained man who had just emerged from months of working in a coal mine!
Miles wanted to leave directly,
But he noticed that the other party was also observing him.
"Um... are you looking for me?"
Miles originally wanted to leave, but seeing this, he stopped, mainly wanting to see Gwen more.
Aaron subtly blocked Gwen's body, "Miles Morales?"
Miles nodded, full of confusion.
"You know Gwen... Da?"
Miles shook his head, "What a strange name. There's no such person at our school."
Behind him, Gwen felt the name was odd. Who would choose such a peculiar name?
It sounded like a hastily put-together fake name?
Aaron was somewhat disappointed by her words. It seemed the Gwen of Universe 65 was gone.
No, perhaps... the Gwen behind him was the original Gwen of Universe 65!
They were not the same person, and their Universe was not Universe 65.
Instead, Aaron's presence caused this Gwen to become the true and only Gwen.
One could also say... Ghost-Spider Gwen!
Chapter 157: Peni Parker, Those Who Imitate Me Shall Die!
"You mean, originally there would have been another me in this World, yes, another Gwen."
"However, because of you, I replaced her, and so only I remain in all the Multiverse?"
"One who shouldn't be here, but is, and only I, Gwen Spider-Woman?"
Gwen saw Aaron deep in thought, and after asking a question,
She was incredibly surprised by Aaron's speculation.
"A Gwen Spider-Woman who shouldn't exist, wouldn't that just be a ghost?"
Gwen murmured.
Aaron nodded at her words, "Then from now on, I'll call you Ghost-Spider."
Gwen retorted, "I'm a living person, not some ghost."
"Then I'll call you Living Spider, or Unique Spider?"
Gwen rolled her beautiful eyes, "Then Ghost-Spider it is."
"I like that name."
Miles, standing nearby, couldn't interject into their conversation, and upon hearing that the other Gwen had completely disappeared, he felt a strange sense of melancholy.
As if something had left him.
Aaron thought for a moment, "This is just a guess. We need to ask those guys about the specifics first."
"Who? Kamar-Taj?"
When Gwen chatted with Felicia, they had discussed the sorcerers of Kamar-Taj.
She was very curious about an organization in her Worldthat silently protected the World's safety and maintained order on the magic side.
This also prompted her, after gaining her abilities, to want to try the feeling of helping others.
After all, George was the Director of Police, and by osmosis, Gwen herself had a sense of justice.
Aaron shook his head, "Finding them would be inefficient. I mean... the Spider Alliance."
"Never mind, we'll talk about this later. If I'm not mistaken, they should contact you soon."
Aaron mused internally, Gwen was also Spider-Man, so she would naturally be among those invited by the Spider Alliance.
If the Spider Alliance already existed at this time,
Then they should quickly notice Gwen, or perhaps have already noticed this Universe.
The Spider Alliance also had many good things.
Many "extra-dimensional beings" from different Universes, or rather, spacetime disturbers, were imprisoned there.
Speaking of which,
Aaron himself was the biggest extra-dimensional being.
He, who was not Spider-Man, intruded into a Spider-Manevent and would change its developmental trajectory.
So the question is,
Does Miles being with Gwen count as a Web Weaving Incident?
Or rather,
Did his kissing Gwen, or himself kissing Mary Jane, already fulfill the premise of the Web Weaving Incident?
That famous kiss scene.
But Uncle Ben's death... Aaron remembered that in 'Across the Spider-Verse', Gwen's father didn't actually die.
Was the Web Weaving Incident theory flawed, or was it simply not time yet?
Because George in the comics also died.
Hiss, what a dangerous Spider-Man!
Aaron thought, should he let George resign and replace him with another 'chief inspector' as a scapegoat?
If an chief inspector connected to Spider-Man died, as long as Gwen was still a masked vigilante, she would naturally deal with the chief inspector.
No problem.
Of course, Aaron was just thinking.
According to his thoughts, with his current rate of improvement,
If that day truly came,
He could always stop it.
If Supreme Dark Strange couldn't do it, it didn't mean he couldn't handle it.
If a single Universe wasn't enough, then Super-Single, Multiverse.
If the Multiverse still wasn't enough, then he would continue to advance upwards.
Surely an Omniverse level would be enough?
He didn't believe he couldn't handle a mere absolute fixed point.
Even the source of Spider-Man, the Great Master who created the Web of Life and Destiny, was actually just a small fry.
"Spider Alliance? Sounds pretty cool, an Alliance of Spider-Men?"
Gwen sounded very excited.
She was already imagining a friendly atmosphere of many Spider-Men exchanging superhero experiences.
Seeing her so excited, Aaron tactfully said, "I advise you not to have too high expectations for this thing."
Gwen was puzzled, "Why?"
"Because they have strong opinions about companions who have both parents alive."
Aaron said seriously.
Spider-Man was synonymous with orphans.
As a mature Spider-Man, one had to be prepared for both parents to die.
This was the "Supreme Mission", the "necessary" prerequisite for embarking on the protagonist's path.
"You can imagine what kind of corporate atmosphere an organization full of orphans would have."
Seeing Gwen's confusion, Aaron reminded her.
How could a person with both parents intact possibly laugh and talk loudly in a group full of orphans?
Gwen imagined that scene and immediately felt scared.
"Not fitting in, not self-aware, ignorant..."
"Workplace bullying, workplace discrimination, ganging up and isolating..."
Gwen thought of many labels, and she chuckled, "Actually, I think Aaron's Group is better. As for the Spider Alliance, forget it."
The sisters in the secretariat were all talented.
They knew so much and understood so much.
There, she could learn many secrets and insights unknown to the outside World.
Everyone was kind, and the corporate atmosphere was excellent.
Miles Spider, hearing this, thought of his own parents and nodded in agreement.
He looked forward to that Spider Alliance, but if the price was losing his parents, then they should never meet.
This was just fine!
"By the way, where are we going?"
Gwen changed the subject, no longer discussing the "orphan organization" that was the Spider Alliance.
"Spider-Man's home."
Aaron said.
The trio easily made their way to Spider-Man Peter's home.
Aaron's gaze swept around, a smile playing on his lips.
"Since you're here, why not come out and say hello?"
DuangDuangDuang... With several heavy footsteps,
Gwen looked back vigilantly.
"Hey, don't misunderstand, I'm one of you, um, I'm Spider-Man Peni Parker!"
"One Hundred and Fifty-Seventh Chapter: Peni Parker, Those Who Imitate Me Shall Die!"
A red robot resembling a strange spider jumped out of the darkness.
"Hello everyone! I'm from New York in the year 3145, and I was bitten by a radioactive spider."
"But the spider and I developed a psychic connection. It lives inside my dad's robot, and we're good friends."
Peni Parker forced out her self-introduction, just like all the Spider-Men.
A nerve deep inside Gwen was struck, and she blurted out subconsciously.
"I am Ghost-Spider Gwen Stacy, from New York in 2010."
"I was bitten by a spider while voluntarily working overtime at Aaron's Group."
"Then, during a hanging romantic date with my boss, I arrived in this Universe."
"Wow, that sounds so romantic!"
Peni Parker jumped out of the robot.
"But why isn't your name Parker?"
Gwen was stunned.
She hadn't considered that question.
"He isn't either."
Gwen pointed at Miles, who quickly waved his hands, "I don't think I count as Spider-Man."
Peni only glanced at Miles before looking at Aaron.
There was no helping it.
As an Asian, Aaron completely fit her aesthetic criteria in every way.
If ten was a perfect score, she would give him ten thousand points!
The extra points were entirely brought out by Miles' contrast.
"Are you a Spider-Man too?"
Peni immediately abandoned the spider-mech and swiftly approached Aaron.
Aaron looked down at her, "I am Aaron, not Parker, and not Spider-Man."
"Woah, even your voice is so pleasant! And you smell great too!"
Peni clenched her fists, her face flushed red.
Behind her, the spider-mech's large face displayed a sad and frustrated emoji expression.
"Is that your Mech? It looks pretty good. Can I take a look?"
Aaron scanned the spider-mech.
Hearing this, Peni nodded without any reservation, "Of course you can!"
If it were anyone else, Peni would have hesitated for a moment.
But if Aaron asked, thinking for even a second was a sin.
Someone so handsome, and also Ghost-Spider's boss, definitely wouldn't be a bad guy.
Aaron is a super great guy!
Aaron walked up to the spider-mech. After staring blankly for a moment, a spider crawled out of the Mech and landed on Aaron's hand.
"Wow, you can communicate with the little spider too?"
Peni's impression of Aaron improved even further.
What surprised Peni even more was that,
even the spider-mech was communicating with Aaron.
A look of serious thought appeared on its face,
followed by a smiling emoji expression.
Aaron then placed his hand on it,
and suddenly,
the spider-mech was swallowed by a giant black hole.
Peni Parker was dumbfounded by the sight.
"Where's my Mech? Where is my huge Mech?"
"Don't worry, it is about to complete its transformation."
"It told me that it needs stronger power to protect you."
As soon as Aaron finished speaking, the spider-mechreappeared where it had been.
It blinked its eyes.
"Autobots, transform!"
Peni's eyes widened greatly.
The spider-mech rapidly and fully changed to an extent that defied common sense.
It went from being a fatty to a handsome, tall red robot!
It was much taller, giving off a feeling of powerful Aura.
Those precise and complex parts were constructed into a silicon-based life form using extremely illogical reasoning.
"Hello Peni Parker, I am Starscream!"
The Spider Robot tried its best to imitate Aaron's voice.
Although the pitch was similar, it completely lacked the special feeling present in Aaron's voice.
Aaron's voice gave people the refreshing comfort of a gentle breeze and the deep affection that tugged at heartstrings.
Aaron coughed twice, "I suggest you don't call yourself Starscream; it has already been turned into an iron ball by me. Also, don't copy my voice. I hate imitators and fakes."
There was one more phrase he didn't say: Those who imitate me die!
Hearing this, the Spider Robot immediately changed its tone, transforming into a mature female voice infused with a strong AI sound.
"Then... I am Spider-Woman!"
"My spider-mech... turned into a giant Spider-WomanRobot!"
Peni was stunned.
Aaron patted her robot body: "From now on, besides being a Mech, she can also have a Cybertronian Form. In this state, she can be regarded as a silicon-based life form with her own Soul!"
"At the same time, her power is much greater than before, allowing her to cooperate with you better."
This was a transaction; merely granting a Mech a Soulincurred no cost to him.
However, he also refined the spider-mech.
And recorded some of the technology from Earth in 3145.
"Her current abilities can be slowly explored later. For now,"
Aaron scanned the surroundings, "How long are you going to keep watching? Spider-Men!"
The air was silent for a moment.
"What astonishing perception."
"Hello! I am Peter Parker! I was bitten by a radioactive spider!"
"I am Peter Porker! I was bitten by a radioactive pig!"
They spoke as they swung over.
With a lift of Aaron's hand, he silenced them all.
"Alright, stop the self-introductions. It's enough to know that you are Spider-Men."
A Spider-Man with a pig's head pointed at his mouth.
"I understand, you are a spider, not a pig."
Peter Porker gave a thumbs up.
That's exactly what he meant.
After all, being a spider who was bitten by a pig and turned into a pig was a very troubling matter for a spider.
He hated being called Pig Scoop!
Chapter 158: Why Are You the Only Outstanding One?
The two Spider-Men before them,
One was a private investigator from the Shadow Universein 1933.
The other was a spider from the Animal Universe.
Yes, he was bitten by a pig.
Confirming that the scene before him was the same as in his memories,
Aaron breathed a sigh of relief, worried that his arrival might have caused unexpected complications.
He waved his hand again.
"Phew~ I can finally speak!"
"It feels like I'm alive again."
Peter Porker sniffed his long pig snout like a pig.
Seeing this, Peni forgot about studying the Cybertronian Spider and burst out laughing, "So there's a Spider-Ham! You really look like a pig!"
Hearing this, Peter Porker turned his head, "Hey little girl, I'm not a pig! I'm just like you!"
"I am not like you."
Peni nimbly leveraged the Cybertronian Spider and jumped onto its shoulder.
"Wow, there's actually a cockpit!"
"Just like Iron Man!"
"Maybe I can be called Iron Spider-Man from now on!"
Aaron glanced sideways at her, almost thinking Peni Parker had traveled to other Universes.
But seeing her innocent appearance, he realized it was just a young girl's strange way of thinking.
Peni Parker was currently around fourteen years old.
Hmm, not yet.
Aaron shook his head, throwing off the spontaneous thought.
"So, does anyone know how to get home?"
The extremely low-presence Spider-Man Noir spoke up.
Gwen and Miles looked at Aaron simultaneously.
Seeing this scene,
Peni Parker and Peter Porker also looked over.
"Wait a moment, we should still be missing one person. Let me see..."
"I see him!"
Aaron looked into the distance and spotted Peter B. Parker in the middle of a skyscraper in New York, gazing affectionately at his own "portrait" and "Zero Eight Three."
"Alright everyone, let's say this one last time."
"My name is Peter B. Parker, and I was bitten by a radioactive spider."
"For 22 years, I thought I was the only Spider-Man."
Until... I died..."
"To be precise, I saw the news and obituary photo of my own Death."
Peter B. Parker, who had recently gotten divorced and came from the future World of Main Universe 616, stared blankly at the super handsome guy in front of him who looked exactly like himself.
Actually, there was a slight difference—the other person had blonde hair.
He felt that the other person possessed nine-tenths of his own handsomeness.
Unfortunately, this handsome blonde guy had already been killed.
In this World, only he, the handsome brown-haired guy, remained.
Peter B. Parker looked into the black and white mirror, completely oblivious as he puffed out his fat belly.
Suddenly, a voice sounded in his mind.
"Found you. You were the last one missing."
Peter B. Parker was startled. "Who is speaking?"
Before he could become vigilant, he was forcibly sucked into a black hole by a surge of power the next moment.
When he reappeared,
another super handsome guy with black hair appeared before him.
"Damn it, he's actually slightly handsomer than me."
Peter B. Parker prepared for battle, looking warily at the unfamiliar handsome guy.
Until he saw more
Spider-Men?
No, that's not right!
Something strange had mixed in here.
"Are you a pig?"
"I hate it when people call me a pig! I am a Spider!"
Peter Porker pulled out a hammer larger than himself from somewhere.
Peter B. Parker waved his hands repeatedly. "Haha, just kidding. I knew you were Spider-Man..."
As if!
You're clearly a pig!
"So, everyone here is a Spider-Man?"
Right after Peter B. Parker finished speaking, he noticed everyone looking at Aaron.
"I am not."
Aaron spoke up, and before Peter could forcefully trigger a self-introduction, he added:
"Alright, since everyone is here, we should get down to business."
"For example, who do we need to take down right now!"
"Take down who?"
Peter Porker swung his large hammer. "Let me find him, I'm going to smash him to Death!"
"It's Kingpin, Prowler, Doctor Octopus, Tombstone, Green Goblin, and Scorpion."
"Oh, crap! I should have known it was them!"
Peter Porker yelled.
Except for Gwen and Miles,
the other Spider-Men all looked indignant.
"I beat them up ages ago. Now it looks like I have to beat my defeated opponents again."
Peter B. Parker puffed out his large belly, adopting an air of confidence.
Spider-Man Noir took off his hat; his masked face concealed his expression, but his voice was deep.
"I smell the stench of Nazis. I will bring them to justice!"
Gwen realized belatedly, "So all these people are Spider-Man's enemies?"
"Does that mean I will face these enemies later too?"
Gwen mentally prepared herself.
Peter B. Parker, acting like a Senior, said, "Yo, looks like you're still a rookie Spider-Man? They are our arch-nemeses!"
"Besides these few, there are also the very classic Lizard Professor, Sandman, and Electro. And of course, Venom, who is all black, just like this gentleman here."
Spider-Man Noir was displeased. "Buddy, everyone in our Universe looks like me. If you have a problem, want to spar?"
"Fatty!"
Peter B. Parker immediately jumped up, quickly sucked in his stomach, and laughed awkwardly:
"This must be due to spacetime distortion. I was much thinner before the distortion!"
Peni Parker said faintly, "Give it a rest, greasy middle-aged uncle! I can smell that stench of decay on you from Miles away!"
Peni Parker walked behind Aaron and took several greedy, deep breaths. "I feel much better now."
Peter B. Parker looked as if he had been struck by lightning.
Middle-aged, greasy, uncle... NO!!!!
Aaron looked strange and retorted, "Perhaps... you are an exception?"
Gwen asked, confused, "Why?"
"Do you remember Professor Connors and Dr. Otto?"
"Oh crap, they are the Lizard Professor and Doctor Octopus!"
Peter B. Parker warned, "You have to be careful of them, they are extremely dangerous!"
Gwen gasped, "But aren't they your employees?"
"And they are very amiable, always friendly and respectful whenever they see me."
Aaron nodded. "That's why I said you are different."
"They are very talented, so I hired them as my employees to conduct scientific research for me."
"Coupled with the internal monitoring System of the company, theoretically speaking, they have no need to get involved with that stuff anymore."
"In addition, Norman Osborn and Harry Osborn are Green Goblin I and Green Goblin II."
Gwen was stunned, thinking of Norman's diligent, working-man appearance.
She whispered, "Why don't we give him fewer tasks? I feel like... maybe he turned into the Green Goblin because you overworked him too much?"
Aaron laughed and shook his head. "That's impossible. I already solved his problems for him and gave him strength even greater than the Green Goblin's."
"He is a very good employee, and Harry will take over his position and continue working for me."
Gwen said, troubled, "Then... wouldn't I be an incomplete Spider-Man?"
"After all, you are Ghost-Spider."
"That's right!"
Gwen smiled.
Peter B. Parker looked at Aaron with a face full of confusion.
The latter seemed to sense it.
"Stop staring. Venom is my Security Vice Captain, Electrois my electrician. I don't care for Prowler, Tombstone, Scorpion, and the like. Aaron's Group doesn't keep idlers!"
Peter B. Parker was greatly shocked.
Doesn't keep idlers? So you're telling me you hire nothing but villains!
"Aaron's Group must be incredibly awesome!" Peter said against his better judgment.
Gwen nodded, saying proudly, "It's alright, I guess. It's only equivalent to four or five Stark Energy Groups."
Peter B. Parker opened his mouth. He wanted to say that wasn't what he meant, but then he heard Gwen say that.
What the actual F*ck, it's even more awesome than he thought!
Four or five Stark Energy Groups!
What kind of behemoth is Aaron's Group? Why don't you just put on the imperial robe and declare yourself King!
Peter B. Parker dared not, and could not, think about it.
Coming from the Main Universe, he knew how terrifying Stark Industries was.
According to Gwen,
he guessed that,
the other nine people in the top ten of the rich list combined couldn't compare to Aaron!
Peter B. Parker glanced at Aaron. "May I be so bold as to ask, how old are you?"
"Twenty-two. Why?"
"N-nothing..."
Twenty-two years old. What was he doing at that age?
Oh, he was probably just starting at the Daily Bugle, or maybe still delivering pizza? Part-time Spider-Man.
And then he broke his spine.
And Aaron... had already become the richest man in the World.
Damn it, stop overachieving!
Facing Aaron, who was approachable because of his billions and talented because of his billions, Peter B. Parker wisely chose to shut up.
Because he remembered that Aaron seemed to possess some kind of long-distance teleportation ability, moving him from the center of New York City to Queens.
Then thinking about himself... divorced, failed investments. Right, let me just say this: never invest in a Spider-Man Theme Restaurant. That is purely based on experience, spoken from the heart.
Alas, sorrow flowed into a river... Peter B. Parker was grieving alone... Just then, Aaron remembered something and asked, "Right, Peter."
"What?" * 3
Three voices rang out simultaneously.
"I am Peter!"
"No, I am Peter!"
"Stop fighting, one of you is a pig, one is a Dark Spider, I am the true Peter!"
Looking at the Spider-Men arguing and complaining over a single name,
Aaron recalled that Spider-Man was quite the motormouth.
"Stop it, all of you!"
"Let me ask, do any of you know Gwen or Mary Jane?"
The three men simultaneously shook their heads.
Then they nodded.
"We don't know Mary Jane, but we do know one Gwen. Look, isn't that her?"
The three men all looked toward Gwen Stacy.
The latter understood what Aaron meant, but she wondered, who was Mary Jane?!
Hearing this, Aaron became even more certain of his inner thoughts.
He discovered that the Spider-Man of this Universe was not married to Mary Jane either.
Instead, it was another MJ.
At this moment, Aaron suddenly thought of Gwen Stacy.
She hasn't disappeared too, right?
Hmm, not necessarily.
Although Gwen Stacy can be said to be a variant of Gwen, she can also be said to be a variant of Deadpool.
However, later on, she had already become independent.
She was neither Gwen nor Deadpool, but an independent hero.
So, Gwen Stacy is not counted as Gwen, and won't disappear because of this?
Aaron was very curious about this question and wanted to determine what criteria these variants were based on.
Aaron pondered, not forgetting the most important matter.
He briefly explained the matter concerning Kingpin and the Particle Collider.
Kingpin's Super Particle Collider was quite formidable.
He was very interested.
This counted as Marvel's Black Technology.
To be able to open multiple Universe Channels purely through technological means in one go.
He hoped that after refining it, his Teleportation Abilitycould be further strengthened.
"Let's go, we're going to deal with Kingpin."
"If we let him activate the Super Particle Collider again, the next time, it might not just be Spider-Man appearing."
"This Universe and the Universes you come from could become entangled, and then crash into destruction!"
Aaron said this and opened a Teleportation Gate.
Without The three Arcee sisters around,
he often preferred to teleport directly.
"Wait, I have a question!"
Peter B. Parker raised his hand, and under everyone's gaze, he hesitated, saying: "According to what you said, we need to activate the Particle Collider to go back."
"But to save the World, we have to shut it down."
"Doesn't that mean one of us has to stay behind and destroy it!"
When everyone heard this, they fell silent.
At this moment, Peni looked at Miles.
"You seem to be the Spider-Man of this Universe?"
Miles's expression changed, "Wait, I can't do anything!"
Peter B. Parker patted his shoulder, "Maybe we can teach you."
Miles shook his head again.
Because Aaron appeared, he had not established a bond with Gwen and Peter B. Parker.
It was impossible for him to risk helping.
After all,
There were six of those bastards!
Moreover, they had killed an even stronger Peter Parker!
How could he, mere Miles, be qualified to fight against such vicious people?
He would die!
Aaron interrupted them before they could continue.
"Alright, Gwen and I will stay behind. As for Miles... I'm just bringing him along for show."
"After all, he is the Spider-Man of this Universe. If he doesn't go, it might affect certain things."
For example, the Web Weaving Incident.
He didn't say it aloud; it wasn't time yet.
Peni Parker worriedly asked: "But... aren't you going home? And that's the Sinister Six!"
She hesitated, "Maybe I can let Spider-Robot stay and help you."
The spider behind her couldn't turn its head. Wait, am I being abandoned?
Miles also looked over.
What about me? What about me? Why weren't you worried about me just now?
Aaron shook his head, saying: "It's just the Sinister Six; anyone who didn't know better would think they were the Eight Great Dimensional Demon Gods."
"I am different from you. You all cannot go back, but I can return anytime."
Aaron said, pointing at the Teleportation Gate.
Peter B. Parker pursed his lips, already speechless.
Looking at Aaron's relaxed and casual demeanor.
He really wanted to say, we are all human, why are you the only outstanding one?
