I'm working on Marvel's Spider-Man in American comics.
Chapter 760 The Power of the Spider
Chapter 760 The Power of the Spider
The biggest reason the Mountain Spider wanted to fight Peter was that Peter himself was too extraordinary. If Peter was to participate in the Immortal Trial, the Mountain Spider needed to figure out his approximate strength range. Only in this way could he determine how much of his strength he would use during the trial.
After all, if the trial difficulty were the same as the previous Immortal Weapons, Peter would probably be able to speedrun it in just a few minutes.
Peter, on the other hand, changed into clean and easy-to-move clothes. This battle was different from his battles against supervillains. In order to better adapt to and understand the immortal power of the Mountain Spider, he was required not to use any powers not granted to him by the Spider Totem. In other words, nanosuits, magic, anti-venom, and the like were all unusable.
This is also the requirement for the trial. Technology is considered unclean, and you cannot use these powers to participate in the trial. As for the spider silk, since you can't spin silk yourself, just pretend you don't have it. You can't use the web launcher either. Here's a bundle of rope; use it as a web.
So Peter, carrying a bundle of hemp rope as thick as the spider silk launched by four hundred old women, went to the vast stalagmite field outside the city. Above was a huge spider web, and below were sharp stone spikes. Both sides took their positions, ready for battle.
Daniel watched from the sidelines. He had fought Elder Shou many times, the most dangerous of which was the Immortal Trial. The immortal beasts would mercilessly kill those who were not qualified for the trial. Peter didn't have this problem, but his own powerful strength would inevitably bring another issue.
That is, as the weakest of the immortal divine beasts, the Mountain Spider is very likely to go all out.
The mountain spider did indeed intend to do so. First, it used its silk to stick to a loose boulder that looked to weigh at least forty or fifty tons. Then, it pulled with its two front claws and threw the boulder toward Peter. Peter did not dodge but stood on the thin silk, took a deep breath, and then spread his arms to catch the boulder.
The delicate spider silk began to shake violently from the intense impact. Peter quickly adjusted his posture to maintain his balance. Then, his spider senses made a sound, and Peter hurled the boulder away.
He initially thought the mountain spider would dodge, just like he had. But what happened next was beyond Peter's expectations. The boulder was shattered in mid-air, not by the mountain spider's claws, but by a single strand of spider silk that pierced through it, and the rapidly vibrating silk then shattered the boulder.
It wasn't just that the spider silk shattered the giant rock; the force of the silk didn't even diminish after shattering the rock. It fell directly towards Peter, who immediately jumped onto another silk thread. The silk thread he was originally standing on had already been severed by the silk thread fired by the mountain spider.
Furthermore, the breakage of this spider silk triggered a chain reaction, causing the spider silk beneath his feet to break one after another, and Peter ran away shouting "What's going on?"
Iron Fist provided a science lesson from the side.
"This is how Qi is used. The immortal weapons of the Spider Kingdom are different from those of Kunlun. They are more adept at using weapons such as hooks, chains, and whips to simulate the silk of mountain spiders. Under normal circumstances, these weapons can hook onto objects like spider silk and climb walls. But once Qi is injected into them, they will fire out sharp weapons as you see."
"So if I learn this trick, I can solve the problem of long-range lethal weapons? Although I don't usually use lethal weapons."
Peter finally landed on a safe piece of spider silk. The mountain spider used its last two claws to hold him upside down, then quickly patched up the damaged section of the web with its own silk. This time, Peter took the initiative, charging forward and attempting to ambush the mountain spider's abdomen. However, the mountain spider could easily predict Peter's next move.
Furthermore, the mountain spider would even anticipate Peter's next move, which he would sense through his spider-sense, and the mountain spider would adjust its actions accordingly.
"Spider-sense?" "No, no, no, kid, this isn't the kind of danger perception that comes from animal instinct, or even more advanced magical prediction. Both danger perception and magical prediction are actually a kind of latent, premonition before a crisis arrives."
The mountain spider landed on its web and then used one of its claws to hook the web up: "But what I did wasn't so... mysterious. I was just using my web to sense your actions and then react quickly, like playing rock-paper-scissors. Your senses predicted that I would play rock, so you played paper. But your prediction that I would play rock didn't actually happen. Instead, I saw that you played paper, so I played scissors."
"And my immortal weapon can also use immortal power, expanding its sensing range around it with qi, achieving an effect similar to rock-paper-scissors, except the range..."
The mountain spider initially intended to say that the range was not large, but considering that Spider-Man's life energy was beyond that of ordinary people, he couldn't predict how large Peter's perception range could be.
What if we could sense all activities within a 50-kilometer radius?
This is a completely different way of sensing than spider-sense, and it is also a supplement to spider-sense. Peter has seen too many cases where spider-sense has failed or is essentially non-existent.
However, if the opponent is using this skill...
White sparks flew from Peter's body. The mountain spider immediately realized what Peter was about to do and instantly leaped into the air to pounce on him. Peter's hands were already gripping the web. In an instant, a white torrent swept over the spider web and engulfed everything.
These electric currents did not destroy the spider web, but instead continuously stimulated it, causing it to vibrate and weaken the mountain spider's sensory abilities.
Then Peter disappeared again, leaving the mountain spider empty-handed.
“Very good reflexes, kid. As a mortal, you are indeed quite outstanding. It’s just a pity that you seem to have forgotten what I said. My immortal weapon can use qi to simulate my spider web for perception.”
"What makes you think I can't do it?!"
The mountain spider's massive body swiftly turned, its sharp claws stabbing forward. Peter's invisibility was instantly broken, and he grabbed the mountain spider's barbed claws, his entire body's electrical current reaching its peak.
“Good question, sir. I don’t think so. I just need to make you feel that the current is perfectly normal here.”
