Marvel's Spider-Man: Web of Fate

However, the enclosed nature of the spider head mask allows the little boy to temporarily forget his surroundings, making him see only Peter.

After Peter saw that the little boy had calmed down, he slowly climbed into the car, unbuckled the seatbelt that was restraining the boy, grabbed his hand, and led him back the way he came.

Just then, Peter smelled a pungent odor.

The spider senses started throbbing again.

"Oh no, it's gasoline!"

Peter realized that the previous attack by the lizardmen might have caused the car's fuel tank to leak.

If that happens, the whole car could very well burn down!

Must speed up!

hum!

The spider senses suddenly started throbbing wildly!

Without hesitation, Peter pulled the little boy into his arms, then quickly climbed up with his other hand.

At the same time, the vehicle suddenly burst into flames.

Under the intense heat of the flames, the spider silk that was holding the vehicle was burned off, and the entire vehicle fell off!

"Aaaaaah!" the little boy screamed again.

However, Peter had already reached the rear window of the car by then.

With a powerful stomp, he stepped out of the car and shot out another spider silk, which carried the little boy to a stop in mid-air.

“Hey, kid, you’re safe now,” Peter said with a smile.

The little boy stopped shouting and looked up at him.

"Could you help me put my mask back on?" Peter lowered his head even further.

The little boy took off his mask and put it on Peter's head: "Thank you, big brother."

“You’re welcome, Jack,” Peter replied. “And by the way, I’m Spider-Man!”

"Thank you, Spider-Man."

"Hehehe~" Peter chuckled unconsciously.

Whether in another world or in this one, this was the first time he had received gratitude from someone he had helped.

Although he's just a child, this is really important to him.

This made him feel that his efforts were not in vain!

In fact, this is a mutual affirmation between the rescuer and the rescued.

As for who is the savior and who is the savior, who knows?

Chapter 25 Rescue

After handing the little boy Jack over to his father, Peter jumped off the bridge.

He wanted to track down the large lizard that had disappeared into the water.

However, he waited on the bridge pier for a long time but got nothing.

The vast ocean has covered up all traces.

Left with no other option, Peter rolled back onto the bridge.

At that moment, Sheriff Stacy, who was stuck in traffic, led a group of officers and walked across the bridge to this side.

In the distance, fire trucks also arrived outside the bridge, but due to the heavy traffic, they were unable to enter.

When Peter returned, they were racking their brains trying to figure out how to get the people out of the cars that had been thrown out.

Several firefighters were attaching safety ropes to themselves, seemingly preparing to climb down to rescue the people.

Peter's eyes lit up when he saw this.

Isn't this exactly what he planned to do?

On the bridge, the firefighters moved slowly, taking each step with great care.

There was nothing that could be done about it, because the fire trucks were blocked outside and couldn't get in for the time being.

Meanwhile, no one knew how long that thin spider silk could hold on.

They just saw a car fall off a cliff, stuck in spider silk.

Some people even saw the spider silk sticking the car to the bridge and believed that the masked spider who used the silk was the culprit who caused all of this, and they were cursing and blaming him.

The officers believed it to be true, and several officers actually collected so-called "testimonies" at the scene, seemingly to convict Peter.

Peter thought to himself, "Thank goodness I came back, otherwise I would have been in deep trouble."

He can already imagine the news he'll see when he wakes up tomorrow morning:

Is it a decline in morality or a distortion of human nature? Last night, the masked madman Spider-Man finally extended his clutches to innocent New York citizens – The Daily Bugle.

[Terror roams the streets, a shadow looms over New York! Who exactly is Spider-Man? —The Daily Bugle]

How can citizens' property be guaranteed? And to whom should their personal safety be entrusted? —The New York Economic Times

[Shocking! The much-praised Spider-Man did this to innocent citizens on a bridge last night – UC Shocking News New York Branch]

Peter shook his head vigorously, trying to shake these absolutely terrifying images out of his mind.

Without further hesitation, he jogged along the edge of the bridge, waving and saying, "Hey, let me do it, let me do it, I can save them."

"Spider-Man!" Police officers, led by Sheriff Stacy, drew their pistols and pointed them at Peter.

Peter hesitated for a moment, then quickly raised his hands: "Hey, I just wanted to save people, I wasn't carrying any weapons!"

"Save people? Are these spider webs on the car your handiwork?" Sheriff Stacy shouted.

“Yes, but,” Peter quickly explained.

"You throw them out and then bring them back? Are you making a fool of us?" Sheriff Stacy shouted angrily.

Peter: If you weren't Gwen's dad, I would definitely kick your ass hard with my Spider Boots and make it bloom!

But he knew that if he actually did that, Gwen would definitely wear her sexy little riding boots and then poke a hard paw print on his butt.

Peter sighed. "Sheriff, ask the people around here, and take a look at the scratches on some of the cars."

As he spoke, he gestured to his hands: "Do you think my tiny hands could leave such terrifying scratches?"

Sheriff Stacy remained wary of him. As a police officer, she didn't trust any masked madman, especially one with a history of interfering with police affairs and using violence indiscriminately.

He tilted his head slightly and gestured: "Omar, go check the nearby cars for the scratches he mentioned."

“Okay, Sheriff Stacy.” An officer holstered his gun and ran toward nearby vehicles.

Peter cupped his hands in front of his mouth, making a megaphone shape: "Don't forget to look at the ground; there should be some on the ground too!"

The officer named Omar stopped and glanced at Chief Constable Stacy.

Sheriff Stacy nodded.

The standoff continues.

At this point, the firefighters' rescue operation encountered some problems.

Because the vehicle was only suspended by a single spider web, the firefighters themselves were also suspended by a single rope.

And since we were on the river, the whole vehicle and the firefighters were shaking when the wind blew.

It is extremely difficult for two swaying objects to merge safely together.

After working for half a day, several firefighters were still hanging upside down under the bridge, and no one had been rescued yet.

The fastest progress is just getting people out of the car.

The guy who was rescued was none other than Nils.

Just then, a slightly stronger gust of wind suddenly blew by.

The safety rope was already very taut under the weight of two adults. When the wind blew, it rubbed hard against the lower corner of the bridge, making a series of eerie "tearing" sounds, as if it was about to break at any moment!

"Ahhh!" Niels screamed in terror, clinging even tighter to the firefighter.

But his actions did not make their current situation safer; on the contrary, they made it even more dangerous!

"Don't move!" The firefighter was so angry his nose almost twisted. They were supposed to wait for the rope to calm down before the people above would pull them up.

His swaying caused the safety rope to swing even more, so how could he get up?

Even worse, the friction between the safety rope and the bridge became increasingly intense!

Although the safety rope is very strong, it should not break under normal circumstances.

But the loud, violent friction sounds made one involuntarily feel uneasy.

However, such a warning seems to have little effect on someone who is in a state of panic.

In a panic, Niels angrily said, "I am Niels, the head of the biological research department of the Osborn Group. You must get me up safely, or I will definitely sue you!"

The firefighter rolled his eyes.
