As Peter entered the laboratory, Reed, who was conducting some kind of special experiment, stopped and was the first to greet him.

"So, can the Pym Particles actually shrink the size of the portal?"

Peter nodded in response to Reed, then looked at the enormous portal device located in the laboratory and asked with some curiosity.

Reed had previously suggested using Pym Particles to shrink the portal, which reminded him of the teleportation gun used by Rick in a certain cartoon.

Therefore, Peter was very supportive of Reed's experiments in this area.

Of course, everything had to be done under his supervision.

Otherwise, Peter was terrified that one day he would open the lab door only to be greeted by a horde of zombies...

“Mr. Superman, this experiment is very complicated. The portal is different from an artificial star and cannot be shrunk in the usual way.”

"As for your idea of ​​making it into a toy gun, it seems rather far-fetched at the moment..."

Reed looked conflicted, hoping to dissuade Peter from his idea of ​​turning the portal into a toy gun.

"Ahem, I was just saying that."

Peter explained somewhat awkwardly.

Suddenly, the laboratory door opened again.

"Reed, look! That cosmic storm is coming... Uh, Mr. Superman, hello!"

A burly, bald man suddenly ran in and excitedly shouted at Reed, but he only got halfway through his sentence before he saw Peter in the laboratory.

“Mr. Superman, this is my childhood friend, Ben Graeme. He’s now a member of the company.”

Seeing Peter's somewhat curious gaze, Reed quickly began to introduce him.

"Hello, Mr. Graeme."

"Mr. Superman, you can just call me Ben. Thank you for giving us such a great opportunity..."

Ben seemed quite excited.

"Okay, Ben, what was that cosmic storm you were talking about?"

Peter smiled and nodded, then asked with curiosity.

"Um, let me explain."

“Mr. Superman, before you kidnapped and recruited me, cosmic storms were the target of my research.”

"At that time, I predicted that the cosmic storm would pass through the solar system in a few months and come very close to Earth."

"So, I wanted to observe cosmic storms up close, perhaps to uncover the secrets of human origins. Unfortunately, no one supported me in doing so at the time, until I met you..."

At this moment, Reed's expression was somewhat wistful.

No one could have imagined that he, who was kidnapped by Superman, would actually have the opportunity to realize his previous dream plan.

"So, Ben, what was that cosmic storm you just mentioned?"

The honest-looking Ben glanced at Reed first, and after the other nodded, he didn't hesitate any longer.

“Mr. Superman, according to our tests, that cosmic storm is approaching the solar system and will likely reach Earth in less than a month.”

A hint of excitement appeared in Reed's eyes, and he couldn't help but continue, "So it seems we'll soon be able to travel to space in a spaceship and prepare to observe that mysterious cosmic storm up close?"

"A spaceship? Simple observation?"

"It's smaller, the layout is smaller!"

Peter suddenly spoke, interrupting the excited Reed.

"Superman, what do you mean?"

"What's the point of using a spaceship for simple observations?"

"Why don't we use this time to build a giant space station and capture that cosmic storm directly?"

Peter's confident words instantly stunned Reed and Ben.

……

Chapter 74 Nano Armor? No, this is a magical artifact!

"Build a space station? Capture cosmic storms?"

The former seems relatively easy to achieve, after all, they have Superman.

Traveling to and from space does not require a huge investment in building rockets; a few rays of sunlight are all that's needed.

Moreover, it possesses incredible technology like a teleportation portal, making it even more convenient than a space elevator.

However, capturing cosmic storms does not seem to be so easy.

“Mr. Superman, it’s not that we’re narrow-minded, it’s just… that’s a cosmic storm, with incredibly terrifying cosmic radiation. Ordinary people would probably…”

If possible, Reed would naturally want to capture the cosmic storm and observe it continuously, like a lab rat.

However, in reality, cosmic storms are not biological, nor are they even gases.

Rather, it is an invisible, enormous energy and radiation in the universe.

It is already very difficult to resist its invasion and observe it, let alone capture it.

"Even if you're Superman, I guess..."

Reed didn't continue, but his hesitant expression revealed that he didn't have any illusions about Peter being able to capture the cosmic storm.

"You think I don't understand cosmic storms, but actually you don't understand Superman..."

Superman's abilities are never static.

"Alright, Mr. Superman, since you insist, we naturally have no objection. However, we hope that you can give us the opportunity to observe first, and then carry out the capture operation."

At this point, Reed could only try to get his own observation opportunity.

"Moreover, in addition to the necessary investment of funds and equipment, you may need to travel between Earth and outer space multiple times to build a space station."

Reed said somewhat embarrassedly, after all, this was undoubtedly treating the great Superman as a porter.

"Don't worry, since I proposed the plan, I will do my best."

"So, Mr. Superman, what do you plan to name this space station?"

"How about we call it... Watchtower!"

Peter slowly spoke, confirming the name of the space station.

……

For the next period of time, the watchtower construction plan took precedence over other experiments.

The company was recruiting various personnel while investing funds to build the Watchtower Space Station on the ground.

Peter only needs to wait for the space station to be built, transported into space, and put into Earth's orbit, and then his mission will be accomplished.

As for how he captured that massive cosmic storm, which greatly intrigued everyone, Peter kept it a secret.

They will only put on a show in front of everyone when the cosmic storm truly arrives.

Of course, Peter himself also joined his company as an intern.

After all, he will graduate from high school in a few months.

At that time, I will also need to consider things related to going to university.

After all, Uncle Ben's gaze and Aunt May's nagging are not so easy to bear, even for someone like him who is Superman.

Sure enough, he came to the company with Gwen right after school today.

"That is?"

As soon as Peter entered the company, he saw a familiar figure.

"What? You can't take your eyes off a pretty girl?"

Seeing Peter suddenly freeze, Gwen followed his gaze, and the smile on her face instantly turned cold.

"No, she just looks familiar."

Looking at the stunning figure with striking red hair not far away, Peter replied calmly.

"What? Do you need me to go and get her contact information for you?"

Gwen said in a sour tone.

"Forget it, let's go."

Peter glanced at it but didn't think much of it, and turned to walk towards the elevator.

"Her name is Natalie, and she's here on behalf of Stark Industries to discuss a collaboration with us."

Following Peter into the elevator, Gwen hesitated for a moment before speaking to him.

“Gwen, I’m really not interested in her.”

Peter said calmly.

"Natalie? It should be Natasha, right?"

Peter naturally recognized the famous Black Widow.

"However, she has now infiltrated Stark Industries, and I wonder if she has received any news that Tony is going to Kamar-Taj."

"I imagine that guy's expression would be quite interesting if he knew that Tony had given up on researching technology and instead pursued the elusive magic."

Peter knew perfectly well that in the original storyline, Natasha infiltrated Stark Industries not only to ascertain Tony's physical condition, but more importantly, to gather information about Tony's armor technology.

Of course, there was also an assessment of whether Tony was qualified to join the Avengers.

Unfortunately, their plans may have fallen through, as Tony is currently still struggling to learn magic in Kamar-Taj.

Thinking of Tony, who was learning magic, Peter couldn't help but use his super hearing to listen to Tony, who was in Kamar-Taj, across a great distance.

At Kamar-Taj, the Ancient One, who was meditating quietly in the main hall, seemed to sense something, suddenly opened her eyes, and then smiled before falling back into meditation.

And at that moment, this was the scene that Peter saw.

It's a scene where Tony, dressed in a monk's robe, is fighting against the indifferent-looking Casillas.
