Under Aunt May’s lead, the group arrived and stopped in front of a small warehouse in the corner of the backyard.
When Aunt May took out a key and opened the seemingly rust-covered iron lock, a highly visually impactful scene unfolded before everyone.
Spider-shaped light patterns quietly emerged on the door.
Then, the door unexpectedly separated and folded along the light lines, revealing a mysteriously bright space behind it.
Aunt May had a proud smile on her lips, turning her head to signal everyone to follow.
“Wow, Spider-Man’s secret base?
This is too cool!” Spider-Ham was the first to follow Aunt May inside.
“Feels a lot like my dad’s lab.” Peni Parker had her smart spider robot fold its body, her eyes equally full of curiosity.
“This place is too flashy.
I still prefer my small equipment storage warehouse.” Middle-aged Peter Parker pretended not to care, but he had actually made up his mind to properly renovate his own equipment warehouse after returning home.
“Old Peter, I have a feeling you won’t say that after going in.” Peter laughed, walking shoulder to shoulder with the middle-aged Peter Parker, casually winning a point back in the trash-talk domain.
As Spider-Man Noir’s figure finally entered the mysterious space, the warehouse door quietly returned to its original state, completely erasing all traces of the Spider-Men.
“Everyone, welcome to Peter’s secret base.”
Amidst Aunt May’s voice, the group felt a slight tremor under their feet, and the steel plate they stepped on began to descend.
It turned out the underground of the backyard was completely hollowed out.
Crisscrossing steel pillars supported the walls, constructing a massive underground space.
During the descent, a series of sci-fi-esque spider equipment was presented before them one by one like exhibits.
A Spider-Buggy, a Spider-Cycle, a Spider-Jet, and a row of suit display cabinets.
Just when everyone’s sight was attracted by the buggy and jet, Peter’s gaze was locked on the suit display cabinets.
“If I remember correctly, this universe’s Peter is a photographer, not a clothing designer, right?” Even though Peter had expected it, he still expressed surprise when truly seeing so many different models of spider suits.
It was hard to imagine so many suits of radically different styles coming from the same person’s hands.
“Actually, I helped Peter design all these suits.
Additionally, I also managed Peter’s daily training and diet to ensure he maintained peak condition at all times.”
Aunt May’s calm voice contained a trace of pride, and she was also happy for this equipment that was going to gather dust to be able to meet suitable people again.
The group of Spider-Men immediately cast admiring glances at Aunt May. Get faster updates on g.com.
With such a wise and brave Aunt May, if she were thirty years younger, she really could take over Spider-Man’s position, upgrading from Butler-Man to Spider-Woman.
Actually, in a certain parallel universe, there indeed exists an Aunt May version of Spider-Woman.
“Wow, this universe’s Aunt May is so cool.
I also want to have an assistant like this.” Spider-Ham drooped his shoulders, his pig nose pointing to the sky, exclaiming with exaggerated expression and tone.
“This way, after I finish beating up those hateful criminals, I wouldn’t need to think about what fast food to use to fill my stomach.”
Aunt May bent down and considerately patted Spider-Ham’s shoulder, indicating she could temporarily act as his assistant first.
“Speaking of filling stomachs, if anyone wants to eat something right now, I don’t mind doing it for you.
I just went to the supermarket yesterday, and the ingredients in the fridge are very sufficient.”
The three Spider-Men who had just joined them were currently both thirsty and hungry.
Naturally, they didn’t act politely with Aunt May, one after another ordering the food they needed.
Even the seemingly aloof Spider-Man Noir couldn’t help but join in at this time, ordering a portion of his favorite egg cream from Aunt May.
Aunt May, full of smiles, noted them down one by one, then turned around and took the elevator back to the surface to prepare food for everyone.
“You guys continue discussing.
There is the most advanced anti-surveillance equipment here, no one will disturb you.”
Just as Aunt May left, everyone prepared to continue discussing serious business.
Through the conversation just now, everyone had a basic understanding of this universe’s situation.
And soon everyone also noticed that on this universe’s Peter’s workbench, there existed a large number of investigation files regarding Thomas and his faction.
After reading and analyzing, everyone thoroughly figured out the ins and outs of the Spider-Man death incident.
Thomas built a particle collider underground in New York City that can break through the barriers of parallel universes.
Spider-Man perceived this terrible conspiracy and went alone to stop it, but unfortunately failed to stop it and died accidentally.
They just needed to obtain that special USB drive that could destroy the particle collider.
“It’s just that there is one thing I still must confirm.” Peter gently put down the document in his hand, crossing his hands to support his chin.
“That is, are there really only five of us Spider-Men who came to this universe?”
As his voice fell, the scene was completely quiet.
“You mean, there might still exist other Spider-Men who haven’t met up with us?” Spider-Man Noir instantly perceived Peter’s true meaning.
“That’s right, we can’t rule out that there are Spider-Men who haven’t come to find Aunt May at the first moment.
I feel this probability is very high.”
Because Peter’s intrusion caused a deviation in the plot, if they wanted to gather the team, Peter still needed to guide them.
Otherwise, Ghost Spider Gwen, who had an important role in the original plot, as well as the young black spider Miles, would leave the team, causing greater variables.
“Then what should we do?
We can’t possibly go to the New York TV station’s morning news and publicly announce that all Spider-Men assemble at the Empire State Building, right?” Middle-aged Peter Parker joked.
“This might be a good idea.” Spider-Ham actually made an expression of serious consideration.
“I can hack into the TV station servers to do this thing.
Also, wouldn’t the evening news have higher attention?” Peni Parker also joined in the discussion.
“The evening news won’t do, there’s not enough time.” Spider-Man Noir issued a reminder.
“I was joking…” Middle-aged Peter Parker’s forehead broke out in cold sweat.
He couldn’t imagine his casual joke would actually be taken seriously.
Fortunately, Peter had already thought of a plan and didn’t let everyone continue brainstorming.
“Actually, it’s not difficult to solve this problem.
Tomorrow, New York’s Times Square will hold a memorial service for Spider-Man.”
“I believe that those potentially existing Spider-Men should all be present.
At that time, the spider-sense will naturally point the way for us.”
Everyone’s eyes lit up, but then they felt an inexplicable emotion rise in their hearts, and their eyes grew much dimmer.
Spider-Man’s memorial service…
They really didn’t want such a thing to happen…
