Marvel's Spider-Man: Web of Fate

Peter sighed, “Don’t be silly, that’s just you comforting yourself. If it were just about making money, with your skills you could have done something else. But you chose to sell weapons! Do you know how many people your weapons will ultimately kill? How many innocent citizens will be ruined?”

"Do you have a family? Can you imagine them sleeping at home, and suddenly, because of a shootout with gangsters using you, their home is blown up by a powerful energy weapon, and their family members are all dead! Can you imagine that, huh?"

Peter became more and more excited as he spoke.

He recalled a scene he witnessed when he merged with Spider-Man Noir.

In that dark world, something like this happened: a dilapidated apartment building, crowded with people, suddenly caught fire one night, and a little girl was burned to death.

The matter seems simple, but the story behind it is so dark it's suffocating.

Chapter 50 Unlucky Peter

Here's the thing.

During that era of economic depression, mergers and acquisitions were rampant, and social wealth became increasingly concentrated in the hands of a few.

As a result, the decline in social purchasing power has made it difficult to increase the supply of goods and export capital during the operation of the competition, which in turn has led to problems such as overproduction and capital surplus.

Problems such as overproduction have led to a large number of workers losing their jobs and being laid off.

When people lose their jobs, they can't afford to pay rent, so rents have to go down.

To secure their income, landlords of these dilapidated houses will gather more tenants.

As a result, the situation became increasingly worse.

As more people fall behind on rent each month, landlords' businesses are becoming increasingly difficult to sustain.

But they couldn't sell the house either, because no one would want a dilapidated house where even the hallways were crowded with people.

Then a fire broke out, setting the dilapidated apartment building ablaze.

The result of the fire was that the landlord left safely with a large sum of money from the insurance company, while the residents were once again homeless, and a little girl perished. —In this dark age, it's hard to say whether this was a stroke of luck or misfortune.

When Spider-Man Noir, who knew about this, wanted to tell the police what had happened, Yurik told him that it was pointless to do so.

Because many people were involved in this: police officers, insurance companies, investigators, gangsters, landlords.

This is a huge chain of interests.

In Peter's eyes, Tooms was one of these people.

Although he spoke with great righteousness, saying things like it was to resist oppression and to find a way to survive.

But in reality, he was just taking out his own suffering on others.

What's worse, he doesn't transfer his suffering to those he considers his "enemies," but to those who, like him in the past, are suffering.

What plunged him into misery was the Damage Control Department and Stark Industries.

If he really dares to fight them, then Peter would have to praise him as a real man.

In reality, this guy was just stealing some scrap materials from the damage control department that they didn't even care about, some harmless "revenge".

He then sold these dangerous weapons to gangs active in the city, who then engaged in indiscriminate firefights, causing both psychological and physical trauma to ordinary citizens.

This is nothing!

"you shut up!"

As if Peter had ripped away the fig leaf that had been covering his face all along, Toms was stunned for a moment, then became furious and charged at Peter.

The enormous wings brought with them a sharp whistling sound, exuding a menacing aura.

On the other hand, Peter was no longer willing to delay any longer.

We've already gone a bit past the designated time today.

He set out in the afternoon, rushing to investigate, and by the time he encountered the Punisher and the Horror in Hell's Kitchen, it was already six or seven o'clock in the evening.

After waiting for another two hours, it was almost 9 p.m. when the Hellhound members and the two freaks were supposed to make their deal.

By the time they arrived at the processing plant in Brooklyn, it was already around 10 p.m.

It will take him some time to get from Brooklyn back to his home in Queens!

Thankfully, Aunt Mei went out today and won't be coming back.

Otherwise, he wouldn't know how to explain it.

Even so, he had no intention of spending the night outside.

"Finish this quickly so we can go home!"

Peter emerged from behind the pillar and fired several spider silk bullets from both hands, which struck several propellers on Toms's metal wings.

This is a spider silk bullet with increased toughness.

The explosion instantly stuck all the propellers together, rendering them immobile.

The metal wings instantly lost more than 80% of their power, leaving only a few small jet nozzles.

However, these injection holes are mainly used for steering and provide very little power.

In his panic, Toms managed to open the spray nozzle and adjust its direction to avoid crashing headfirst into the wall.

At this moment, Peter made his move again.

He used spider silk to stick to Tums from behind and pulled hard!

The Toms, which was originally flying to the side, was pulled back.

"Ready for a friendly greeting from Spider-Man, Mr. Tooms!"

Peter shouted and jumped high into the air.

He kicked Toms in the stomach.

vomit!

Even with the protection of the flight suit, Toms was still hit so hard that he vomited and almost died.

Peter rolled over behind him, pressed one hand against the middle of the metal wings, and with the other hand pried the wings apart, tearing them apart forcefully.

creak creak creak—

With a screeching sound and sparks and lightning, Peter actually tore the half-wing off with his bare hands!

Peter did the same thing and tore off the other metal wing.

In this way, Toms no longer had the ability to escape!

Peter then tied Toms, Mason, Bryce, and Schultz together and kindly called the police again for them.

The response time this time was much faster than last time.

Because Toms recently attacked the police car transporting Bryce and Schultz, they are now searching the streets for any trace of Toms.

Upon hearing the report, they immediately turned and drove in this direction.

As for Peter, he turned on the recorder on his suit and filmed everything in Toms' weapons factory, then had Karen send his entire operation to Tony Stark.

With this, I believe he can become a full-fledged Avenger, right?

Fixed salary!

Subsidies and benefits!

Technical support!

Peter couldn't help but start fantasizing about his wonderful life.

By this time, he was already on his way home.

Because he was distracted, he almost bumped into cars or walls several times.

Fortunately, I have spider sense, so each time I escaped unharmed.

But was everything really a close call?

As is well known, Peter Parker seems to have a knack for bad luck, with many unfortunate things always inexplicably happening to him.

For example, there's the 94 Spider-Man who refuses to reveal his world number and is either taking the blame or on his way to taking the blame.

For example, there's the animated Ultimate Spider-Man who inexplicably swapped bodies with Wolverine.

And now, Peter is the unlucky one.

When Peter got out of a rideshare and arrived near his home, he discovered something terrifying.

The lights in his house are on!

-

As soon as Peter opened the door, he saw Aunt May sitting imposingly on the sofa.

She had a pair of devil horns on her head and was holding a fruit knife.

"Peter, could you please tell me what you were doing out so late at night? If your answer doesn't satisfy me, hehehe~"

Aunt May licked the fruit knife and gave a kind smile.

"Ah—" (Please imagine the scream of the ultimate Spider-Man)

Peter stared in horror at the room opposite, his face turning deathly pale.
