Marvel: I became an ancestor by sacrificing offerings

Once Gwen was sure that her eyes were really closed, she nimbly climbed to the top of her water tower.

Then she shot out a spider silk and slowly slid down from above, holding Peter's face in her hands.

And then...

It must be said that this is indeed a very novel experience.

Even Peter, after realizing what Gwen was doing to him, unconsciously started to think outside the box.

He suddenly thought of Mr. Yi and Wang Jiazhi... paperclip, oh paperclip...

squeak~

Grandma Pauline, who was about to call Peter and Gwen down for a cup of hot cocoa, opened the balcony door and witnessed this shocking scene.

The old lady was taken aback at first, then glanced at Gwen, who was acting quite proactively, and silently turned and left.

Young people really know how to have fun... Hmm, and besides, she's truly worthy of being my granddaughter; she has quite the flair I had back in the day.

Although Grandma Pauline didn't want to disturb the young couple's time together.

Unfortunately, their hearing was just too acute.

Peter was alright after being disturbed like this, but Gwen's ears turned bright red.

No matter what Peter said, he resolutely refused to do it again.

Just then, Tony, who had just dropped the bombshell of "I am Iron Man" at the press conference, called.

"Hey Tony, why are you calling me at this hour?" Peter asked, somewhat curiously.

To Peter's surprise, the voice on the other end of the phone wasn't Tony's, but a deep, distinctively Black voice:

“Mr. Arbitrator, please allow me to introduce myself. I am Marine Corps Colonel James Rhodes, and a partner of the military and Stark Industries.”

"I apologize for bothering you, but I was asked by my superiors to convey some information about the 'Hulk' to you."

Upon hearing that the other party was Tony's good friend Colonel Rhodes, and that he was there to report on Hulk, he was immediately struck by the news.

Peter then became a little more patient with the other party:

"please say."

"That's right. Just a few hours ago, General Ross led a team to hunt down 'Hulk' at Culver University in Virginia, but... it was a complete failure."

"In this operation, we not only failed to capture Hulk, but also lost an armed helicopter, several armored vehicles, and a special forces ace suffered multiple fractures."

"Now Hulk has kidnapped General Ross's daughter Betty and they've escaped into the deep mountains and forests. We've temporarily lost track of them."

Upon hearing this news, although Peter had already guessed that the military was probably trying to gain sympathy by feigning misery and taking the opportunity to showcase their abilities, Peter still couldn't help but feel tempted.

It was mainly Rhodes's explanation that allowed him to successfully pinpoint the plot points in the original work.

The Battle of Culver University...

Bronsky was crippled and injected with a substandard super-soldier serum copied from Isaiah...

Banner runs away with Betty, and during their attempt to get together, Banner bluntly states, "I can't..."

Oh, and by the way, Liv Tyler's long legs in this scene in the movie are really amazing...

Getting back to the main point, according to the movie's timeline, Hulk and Betty would hide away for a while, then try to contact Mr. Blue, who is the future boss Samuel Stern, before finally arriving in New York.

This process takes anywhere from half a month to a month.

If that's the case, we don't know if it will collide with the Life Foundation's rocket landing...

As Peter was pondering these matters, Colonel Rhodes, unsurprisingly, requested that Peter accompany them to help treat the wounded elite soldier.

That is, the future "Hate" Emil Bronsky.

Peter, of course, refused without even thinking.

If this guy is cured now, he won't be able to receive the remaining Super Soldier Serum.

Without the injection of the remaining serum, he would be unable to withstand the Hulk's blood and thus become Abomination.

If the Abomination Butterfly is gone, how can Peter enjoy fighting? How can he fleece his opponent?

Therefore, Peter stated directly that he was only helping to deal with the Hulk because of Tony's sake.

He had no reason or obligation to help the military rescue people. Besides, who knows if the military was secretly plotting something against him?

So he refused to help!

Seeing Peter's decisive refusal, Colonel Rhodes felt helpless but also knew that they were indeed in the wrong.

Rhodes, who had a strong sense of justice, did not make things difficult for Peter. Instead, he kindly told Peter that he would contact him if there was any news about Hulk, and hoped that Peter would cooperate with the military's operations.

After ending his call with Rhodes, Peter couldn't help but look thoughtful.

To avoid clashing with both fighting the Hulk and catching Venom, Peter felt he needed to make some preparations in advance...

Chapter 101 Inviting Quake

To avoid being unable to make a choice when the symbiote arrives on Earth and the two green wars collide.

Peter felt it was necessary to first ascertain the specific moves of the Life Foundation.

Ideally, we should be able to keep track of the Drake rocket's return to Earth and the timing of its return.

And this... requires Peter to hack into the Life Foundation's internal network for monitoring.

With this thought in mind, Peter immediately went home after parting ways with Gwen and tried it out.

The result was a little embarrassing.

The Life Foundation's cybersecurity department has experts; he had only hacked in for less than half an hour when they discovered him and blocked his access.

While it's true that if Peter were given some time to quickly brush up on his cybersecurity knowledge, he could definitely break through the other party's firewall again.

But doing so would be somewhat "not cost-effective" for Peter.

Rather than teaching himself hacking skills, Peter would prefer to recruit a genius hacker to work for him.

Are you right?

Ms. Skye, the future senior agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.?

For Peter now, finding someone is not a difficult task.

Leaving aside the underhanded methods, there are two main avenues for finding people in the public eye: S.H.I.E.L.D. and the New York City police registry system.

To avoid my father-in-law asking me all sorts of questions just because he heard Skye's name was a woman's name.

Peter then chose to contact S.H.I.E.L.D.

Peter pulled out his long-unused secure cell phone and made a direct call to Natasha Romanoff, the "Black Widow".

The call was answered almost instantly.

"Peter? That's rare. You actually remember me."

Natasha's voice remained languid and sexy, giving the impression that she was flirting with you.

"What? Are there any empty-nest old ladies who need my care?" Peter joked with Natasha in a relaxed tone.

Hearing Peter refer to her as an "empty-nest old lady," Natasha's tone unconsciously softened with annoyance:

"Don't go too far! I'm only seven years older than you!"

“Only seven years old.” Peter helped her refine the key words, which made the other end of the phone fall silent for a long time.

After a long while, Natasha spoke again, but this time her tone lacked any allure; it was entirely cold and businesslike:

"Speak, what do you want from me?"

"It's nothing major, I just want you to do me a small favor." Peter rattled off everything he could remember about Quake:

"I need detailed information about a hacker in the hacker group 'Rising Tide'."

"Her name is Skye, and her real name... should be Daisy Johnson."

"Could you please help me find her current address?"

"Oh?" Natasha on the other end of the phone suddenly perked up:

"You want me to help you find a woman? Aren't you afraid your girlfriend will get jealous?"

"A real man knows how to manage his time."

Perhaps because he wasn't particularly interested in Natasha, Peter spoke to her very casually, focusing on bragging as much as he could.

"Xiao Chunan is quite the braggart." The woman on the other end of the phone rolled her eyes and retorted without any politeness.

Perhaps because Peter acted so casually, Natasha, despite knowing that Peter was very strong and had the power to control her life and death at any time, still felt inexplicably relaxed when communicating with him.

She even unconsciously stretched while talking to Peter.

Her ample bust, which even the loose silk pajamas couldn't conceal, was stretched even more taut by her movement, and even the buttons that were fastened seemed to bear an unbearable weight.

Unfortunately, because her room was empty, no one could appreciate this beautiful view.

"Would helping you find this Daisy offset a favor that S.H.I.E.L.D. owes you?" Natasha asked as she opened her agent's computer to search for relevant information.

"You're dreaming!" Peter couldn't help but retort.

"You think you can just use something so simple to erase a favor? Doesn't your conscience hurt?"

"Ah~ if we're not talking about business, then it's a personal relationship~" Natasha suddenly changed the subject, revealing her alluring demeanor again:

"Since I've done you this small favor, how are you going to repay me... How about treating me to a meal?"

What a devil! Has she already turned the Temptation skill into a passive ability?

Peter thought this to himself, but said aloud:

"Friendly reminder: Gwen's punching power is over 20 tons. If you're confident you won't be killed by one punch, I wouldn't mind inviting you to dinner."

Upon hearing this somewhat outrageous number, Natasha secretly stuck out her tongue, and an image of Gwen pounding her chest with her little fists involuntarily flashed through her mind...

Even with two high-quality airbags, she couldn't withstand it!

After a brief silence, Natasha finally gave up on continuing her frivolous talk and began to seriously report the search results:

"Fourteen people with the same name were found in New York City, of whom only three were between 10 and 20 years old."
