Mary sipped her drink from her little red straw.

Her eyelids fluttered with pleasure. "Mmm, mmm! Mmm, it's delicious, Peter, would you like some?"

Before Peter could speak, Mary forcefully shoved the straw into his mouth.

Peter sipped his drink gently; it had a light, refreshing taste.

His mind became increasingly calm, and he was even starting to enjoy the feeling.

Mary looked at Peter happily and said, "Because of some absurd and ridiculous things, some parents have indeed paid a lot of money for their children. Girls from wealthy families can also be confused and anxious. Sometimes, the worst things happen to rich girls, such as anorexia or OxyContin."

"Shopping addiction."

She quickly added, "Some girls like this behavior, but it's also a very serious condition; they don't know how to control themselves."

"This is not my forte."

Peter chimed in.

Mary was surprised that Peter would make a lame joke, and she smiled as she moved closer to him.

“All that we’ve done is to help these poor girls, not just get through this, not just survive, but excel, so I think it makes a lot of sense, Peter.”

She held Peter's hand and said, "I may not be by your side in the future, but I think this spirit will always be with you."

"Peter!"

When Peter accompanied Mary home, Gwen immediately came up to him and said, "Have you seen the news?"

"No, what happened?"

"It looks like there was a gunfight on the street, over there on the seaside street."

Gwen then asked Wanda to turn on the TV.

Immediately, footage appeared on television of Dr. Pym and his daughter fighting against unidentified individuals in the street.

"This is.?"

From the fleeting image, Peter quickly recognized the man driving as Dr. Pym.

Moreover, it was Dr. Pym from his own timeline.

Because Dr. Pym in this timeline is definitely not this old.

"This is Dr. Pym, isn't it?"

Gwen asked, somewhat uncertainly.

"should be."

Peter frowned slightly as he looked at another woman dressed in a uniform somewhat similar to his own.

"But why is Dr. Pym here?"

Gwen felt her mind going blank. "Could it be that the Doctor has also arrived in this era?"

Peter nodded in agreement, saying, "It's not impossible. Don't forget that Dr. Pym built the quantum tunnel and summoned the Beholder from another world."

As he said this, he glanced at Wanda, who looked guilty, beside him.

"Besides Tony Stark, Reed, and this doctor, I don't think anyone else could achieve what Wanda did with science."

"So what do we do now? Go and help them?"

Gwen hesitated for a moment before asking Peter.

When she couldn't figure out what the other person's purpose was, Gwen always wanted to ask Peter for his opinion.

"Although I would like to remain an observer right now, this is a matter of concern for us, so I have no choice but to step in."

Peter sighed and said to Gwen.

He hadn't expected that returning to this era would lead to so many unexpected events.

On the other side, Hope was struggling against "Shadow," but she hadn't expected him to be so difficult.

The opponent uses shadows as a defensive shield and can even hide their own shadow within it; this attack method is practically cheating.

"Damn it, if I had my uniform on."

Hope couldn't help but complain.

As soon as she finished speaking, a "whoosh" sound suddenly filled the air.

The next second, Peter, covered in a black exoskeleton, appeared in front of her.

Peter was somewhat surprised by the oncoming "shadow" attack.

In his later life, he had absorbed a mutant who was also called "Shadow," and the two had similar abilities.

He reached out his hand in response to the attack.

The swirling shadow, tearing through the air, struck his hand and instantly exploded.

"boom!"

The thick, black shadow struck Peter's hand with a deafening sound, but it didn't make him take a single step back.

The act of annihilating the "shadow" in his hand immediately stunned Hope and the "shadow" present.

Hope hadn't expected that his originally incredibly powerful attack would be so easily extinguished.

What is this ghost?

When did Spider-Man become this powerful?

As someone who lives in New York, she naturally knew the name Spider-Man.

They hadn't taken the other party too seriously at first, but now they realized that the other party's strength seemed to be quite formidable.

However, the aura from before seems somewhat different from that now.

The attacking mutant was taken aback.

The attacks he unleashed were not only energy attacks, but their power was also far beyond that of ordinary people.

Faced with Peter, who seemed to have quite a background, "Shadow" immediately prepared for the next attack.

Moving to a safe position, the mutant's shadow cast an eerie arc, striking towards Peter, who was closest to him.

"boom!"

The shockwave from the small explosion knocked Peter back a step.

The "shadow" quickly transformed in mid-air, and the dim black magical energy regrouped around him.

He waved his hands forward, and a black shadow energy flowed down the ground towards Peter.

Like a black fire dragon, it swept across the ground at great speed.

Meanwhile, Hope, the target of the attack, disregarded Peter and immediately flew into the air at top speed. He prepared the stun gun he had taken from Pym and fired a bullet at the other side with a "bang".

The bullets were easily dodged by the opponent, but the black magical energy beneath his feet, moving towards him, shot out from the ground like a long snake and headed straight for him.

The opponent casually launched a shadow energy attack that looked impressive.

Carrying a fierce aura of destruction, it swept towards her.

Accelerating again, Hope flew towards the opponent at an even faster speed.

Use the grappling hook to grab a traffic sign next to you and pull it in the air toward you to avoid the impact of the shadow.

"call!"

With overwhelming force, the shadow energy rushed towards Peter and his companion.

"boom!"

The shadow struck Hope's arm, knocking him toward Peter.

In the instant the two crossed paths, Hope endured the pain and prepared to continue her attack on the "shadow".

She was prepared to use herself as a tool for the "bee sting".

The "bee sting" laced with poison can cause not only physical damage to the target, but also neurological damage.

Despite some pain in her arm, she had only suffered minor injuries because she had deliberately used the strongest part of her suit to withstand the attack.

As she moved forward, she glanced in the direction Peter was.

Peter, who was the main target of the shadow attack, was much more severely affected than she was.

With a loud "boom," Hope looked worriedly in the direction Peter was.

To Hope's surprise, Peter, who was in the middle of the explosion, had disappeared!

Shocked, Hope immediately stopped what she was doing.

How could someone just disappear?

Even with special abilities, it's impossible to disappear in an explosion.

The next second, to Hope's shocked and incredulous gaze, Peter's shadow slowly rose from behind the mutant.

Peter, who absorbed another "shadow," also gained the ability to manipulate shadows.

However, his ability is to hide his body in the shadows. Although this ability is not as strong as that of the mutant "Shadow" in front of him, it is very useful in terms of concealment.

To Hope's astonishment, Peter's body solidified from shadow and slowly raised his right hand.

"Oh!"

His hand transformed into a hand blade and struck the opponent fiercely.

Although the mutant used his "shadow" to shield himself at the last moment, he was still blasted away.

After being hit by Peter's insidious attack, the shadow surrounding the mutant's body immediately dissipated.

He became listless and dispirited.

His dark eyes seemed to lose focus, and his frail body staggered backward.

He stared at Peter in shock and disbelief, unable to believe that the other man possessed his own abilities.

"who are you?"

He had barely uttered the question when Peter casually pointed forward, and countless black, serpentine tentacles instantly wrapped around him.
