American Comics: The Matrix

Even in a cosmic civilization that can cross interstellar space and achieve superluminal teleportation, this engine is unmatched.

Peter thought that it was totally unnecessary.

It is impossible for an old and broken car to utilize even one billionth of its engine's capacity.

"You're right, but who gave me the skills?" Bant said that he could do whatever he wanted because he had the skills. Who said that the Truth Lasso couldn't be used to tie stones?

"As long as you are happy."

Peter was not in high spirits.

Although Bant knew the reason, he pretended to be ignorant and asked.

"what happened?"

"The court was attacked and I let the Green Goblin escape." Peter said dejectedly.

He told Bant everything that happened in the court, and then said, "That's a lunatic. I'm worried that he will hurt Uncle Ben and Aunt May..."

"is it?"

Bant looked at him and smiled slightly: "Do you really think that after I catch the Green Goblin, he still has a chance to escape and continue to do evil?"

Peter was stunned: "What do you mean?"

"It means that if I wanted him dead, I could do it immediately."

Bant gave a devilish smile, and then, in front of Peter's surprised gaze, he took out a controller that looked a bit like a lighter.

"In fact, when I caught the Green Goblin, I had already implanted a chip in his body that could release neurotoxins."

Bant handed the controller to Peter.

"As long as you press this button, the neurotoxin in the Green Goblin's body will be released immediately, and he will be dead for sure."

In reality, pressing the button doesn't kill the Green Goblin instantly.

The controller is also divided into many levels, and only the highest level can completely kill the opponent.

But this is not important. What is important is that Bant once again put the decision of the Green Goblin's life and death in Peter's hands to see what choice he will make.

"Press it, and the Green Goblin will die. This way, you won't have to worry about him continuing to cause trouble. Neither Kingpin, the Hand, nor anyone else will be able to find the remaining lizard serum, and the only one who will die is a crazy villain. I think this is a good deal, what do you think?"

"But we can't..."

Peter opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but his voice was stuck in his throat like a thorny fish bone, causing his vocal cords to hurt.

"Why not?"

Bant patted the watch logo on his shoulder, changed back, and then patted the dust off his body and asked:

"Are you Batman?"

"Do you think that if you kill a criminal, there will be one more criminal in the world, so the total number of criminals will remain the same?"

"No." Peter shook his head.

Of course he knew that this theory was ridiculous.

Killing one criminal might keep the total number the same, but what about killing ten or a hundred?

Not to mention, it doesn't make sense to care about the total number of criminals; what matters is that the innocent victims are saved.

"I just think that a person's life or death should not be decided by us, because people are always unable to make rational judgments due to impulse or other reasons," said Peter.

Just like today, when the Green Goblin said he was going to kill everyone Peter knew, he really wanted to just twist their heads off.

"Who should decide that?" Bant asked.

"law?"

"But you can see that the more criminals are capable of causing a major impact, the more they like to exploit loopholes in the law, and the more people don't want their 'talents' to be buried."

Hearing this, Peter told Bant about his thoughts today.

"It's indeed a good idea to make them lose their superpowers." Bant nodded in agreement, but then he asked, "But have you ever thought that some people are just as dangerous even if they don't have superpowers?"

"There are some people who, even if they are in prison, can control every move of the outside world and make countless people work for them?"

"And some others are extremely smart. They don't have superpowers, but they have wisdom that ordinary people can't match. You can't turn them into fools, right?"

In fact, Bant doesn't mind turning others into fools.

But instead of wasting time on this, it would be better to just kill him and save trouble.

After hearing this series of questions, Peter fell silent again.

Originally, after experiencing what happened today, he felt that he had matured a lot, but now it seems that he was still too naive and took things for granted.

"so what should I do?"

Bant raised his chin and pointed at the controller in his hand.

"Isn't the right to choose already in your hands?" he said.

"Those criminals are nothing more than pests in the city. Is it necessary to catch them when facing pests?"

Peter was silent. He looked down at the controller in his hand. The balance in his heart seemed to begin to waver, and his hands holding the controller began to close.

"Crack!"

The next moment, there was a crisp sound.

He crushed the controller.

Peter raised his head and said seriously: "No matter what, I still can't just kill him like this. It's not because of mercy or any other reason. I'm just worried that once I step over this line, it will be out of control..."

For him, not killing is also a form of self-restraint.

Because killing a person was too easy for Peter, almost the same as killing an ant.

He was worried that if this continued, he would become more and more indifferent to life, separate himself from ordinary people, and become the kind of arrogant guy who thought he could decide the life and death of others.

"That's true, but Peter..."

Bant opened his mouth and said hesitantly: "After the controller was damaged, the neurotoxin would take effect immediately... I'm afraid the Green Goblin is dead now."

Peter: Σ(⊙▽⊙“a!!!

Peter was dumbfounded.

"Okay, I lied to you."

Bant's words put Peter at ease. Then, Peter turned around and went to find Connors to do research.

Looking at Peter's leaving back, Bant shook his head.

He was not disappointed that Peter couldn't make up his mind to kill the Green Goblin. On the contrary, this was what he expected.

"So you're the real Spider-Man."

Bant thought.

At the same time, he raised his wrist, and a row of blue arcs of light lit up on the spider silk launcher.

Of course, there is more than just one controller in Peter's hand. He has already integrated the functions of the controller into the transmitter. In fact, he has also integrated quite a few functions into it.

This wrist-like device can be said to be the part of Spider-Man that can do the most.

At this moment, Bant stretched out his finger and touched the wristband, and the brightness of the blue light circle instantly reached its maximum value.

Just like Peter wouldn't kill the Green Goblin, there's no way Bant would let the Green Goblin live, especially when he's threatening Peter with killing his family and friends.

"I wouldn't be Bant Parker if I let him go!"

Thanks to the salted fish warrior, the passerby who likes novels, and the god-killing Xingkai for the 100-point reward

Chapter 115: Death of the Green Goblin

inside the building.

Several villains gathered together. The Prowler roughly threw the unconscious Green Goblin to the ground, then stretched out a hand to Bullseye and said:

"Give me the money, and I won't do the rest!"

After a competition, the Wanderer has discovered the gap between himself and others.

He himself does not possess super powers, and the technological equipment on his body looks powerful, but in reality, it is just so-so. After seeing Spider-Man's abilities today, he does not want to get involved anymore.

One million is already a lot.

His brother, a policeman, probably wouldn't make a million dollars in his lifetime. Why would he risk the rest?

Neither Bullseye nor Kingpin cared about the Prowler's withdrawal.

To be honest, they didn't think much of this thug without super powers. The Prowler's equipment was naturally a dimensionality reduction attack against ordinary people, but it was useless against the powerful Spider-Man.

Since he plans to leave, just give him the money and let others see that Jin Bing is a person who always keeps his word.

Besides, now that the Green Goblin has been brought back, he will soon have four new super-powered people. If Storm is asked to hand over the technology of the Green Goblin's equipment, then there will be four new Green Goblins!

With such a powerful force, are you still afraid that Spider-Man will not surrender?

"It's a pity that someone withdrew first," a mocking expression appeared under Bullseye's mask. Then, he turned his head and looked at other people. When he said other people, he was actually just Kraven.

"He lost an opportunity to meet the underground emperor, Jin Bing."

After saying that, Bullseye bent down, grabbed one of the Green Goblin's feet, and walked towards the elevator outside.

"Let's go."

Kraven followed.

He was also a little curious about the legendary Kingpin.

So the two of them stood in the elevator at the same time. Bullseye took out a small object and pressed a button on the elevator's control interface. Then, the elevator that was originally restricted suddenly roared and moved in a higher direction.

thump.

With a slight sound, the elevator finally reached the top floor.

The door slowly opened, revealing a dark space before Kraven's eyes.

Darkness is nothing to Kraven, who has super powers. He can see the scene in front of him clearly.

What comes into view is a large hall that looks like a palace, with upright columns supporting the dome and a gorgeous red carpet underfoot.

The carpet extends to the end of the hall.

There, there was a huge square table with gold edges, behind which, Kingpin, wearing a white suit, sat on his throne.

A huge sense of oppression came from this strong man.

He seemed to be in control of the entire dark world of New York City, like a king, looking down on all the sins and his subjects.

At this moment, Kraven realized that the man in front of him, named Kingpin, was also a target worth hunting.

Of course, not as good as the prey named Spider-Man.

He retracted his claws, but his shoulders remained tense.

At this time, Kingpin stood up and walked down from his chair, and Bullseye threw the Green Goblin in his hand forward as if he was throwing away a piece of garbage.

Kingpin didn't even look at the Green Goblin. A loser didn't need his much attention. If it weren't for the serum, he wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to the Green Goblin at all.

He walked over and whispered as he passed Bullseye: "Don't forget to get rid of that useless lawyer."

Bullseye nodded.

Then, Kingpin turned his head and looked at Kraven: "Is this the first time we meet, Hunter?"

Without waiting for Kraven to speak, he added: "It's a pity that the Prowler left us, but there's no need to worry. I know your purpose is to hunt Spider-Man, but you also saw that Spider-Man's strength is beyond our imagination."

"Before, we always looked down on Spider-Man and thought he was nothing special, but now I know I was wrong. His superpowers are extraordinary."

Kingpin said.

His voice echoed in the hall: "But don't worry, we will get a few new superpowers soon. I think you don't mind hunting with others?"

Kingpin said that there was no time to mourn the departure of the Prowler, because the next ones rushing to the battlefield were - four Green Goblins!

Kraven naturally didn't care.

Hunting in groups is a very common phenomenon among wild animals.
