"How did this world's Peter Parker have so much gear? This is insane!"
Middle-aged Peter B. Parker walked through the equipment hall, his eyes wide with envy. Compared to this version of himself, he felt like a total failure.
Back in his world, Peter B. had lost all his money in bad investments and ended up bankrupt. His wife, Mary Jane, had divorced him. His own Spider-Suits were just basic spandex—they helped a little with wind resistance, but that was it.
Here, the "Spider-Lair" was filled with custom-made Spider-Jeeps, Spider-Motorcycles, and even a high-tech Spider-Jet. Any suit he picked off the rack here would be a thousand times better than the one he was currently wearing. It was a serious blow to his ego.
Aunt May stopped in front of a massive workbench covered in computer monitors. She turned to the group and spread her arms wide.
"Everything here is yours to use," she said kindly. "You are all Spider-Men. If this equipment can help you finish your mission and get home safely, please, take what you need."
Miles Morales didn't need to be told twice. He didn't have a real suit yet, so he immediately started looking through the cases with pure excitement. The other Spiders—Noir, Ham, and Peter B.—mostly stuck to their own gear. They were already used to their specific styles and didn't want to mess up their rhythm.
The Genius Exchange
While the others were chatting, Peter (MC) walked over to Aunt May. He pulled out the shattered pieces of the Override Key.
"Aunt May, I need your help with this. This key is the only way to shut down the collider and get everyone home."
He explained the situation, and May's face turned serious. She took the fragments and began to run tests on her workbench.
As Peter waited for the results, a shadow fell over him. A small, cheerful voice spoke up.
"Hi! I heard you built a Super-AI? Can you tell me how it works?"
Peter looked down. It was Peni Parker, a young girl with short black hair and a lollipop in her mouth. She looked playful, but her eyes were sharp with intelligence.
"Deep Blue isn't just a regular AI," Peter explained. "He's a mechanical consciousness. He can think and learn on his own." He pointed to the two-meter-tall robot squatting behind her. "Did you build that spider-mech yourself?"
Peni nodded proudly. "It was my father's design, but I've upgraded it myself dozens of times!"
"Impressive," Peter said. "The technology in your world must be very advanced. I'm actually having a few issues with Deep Blue's learning speed. Maybe we can compare notes?"
"I'd love to!" Peni chirped. "And I want to know how you designed your energy modules. My mech uses a lot of power."
The two of them immediately dove into a deep conversation about robotics, neural networks, and core energy. Among all the Spiders, Peni was unique. She didn't have super-strength; her "power" was her brain and her connection to her mech. In that way, she and Peter were exactly the same—they chose the Technology Path.
They got along so well that they even made a promise to work together on a project once the crisis was over.
The Blueprints
Eventually, Aunt May interrupted their talk. She looked a bit disappointed.
"I'm sorry, Peter. I looked at the key. It's missing its core data model. Without that data, I can't finish the repairs."
Peter wasn't surprised. It matched what Deep Blue had told him. "So, we still have to go to Kingpin's lab to get the data from the source."
"I'm afraid so," May said. "I'm sorry I couldn't do more. Is there anything else you need? New gear? Medical supplies?"
Peter looked around the room. The suits were great, but he didn't want a ready-made one. He wanted the knowledge behind them. With his System and his Mechanical Limit Breaker talent, he could build something even better.
"Actually, Aunt May, could you give me the design blueprints for these suits instead?"
May blinked in surprise. "Blueprints? Why not just take the suits?"
Peter just smiled. "I like to build things my own way."
Aunt May laughed and shook her head. She spent a few minutes at the workbench and then handed Peter a small USB drive. As soon as Peter's fingers touched the drive, his system began to chime in his head!

Peter gripped the drive tightly. With these designs, his "Parker Suit" was about to become the most powerful weapon in the multiverse.
