Chapter 766 Source of Fear - Desperate Spider
Relying on the help of the rope, Peter quickly arrived near the Penthouse.
Why not take the Elevator to the Penthouse? Good question. First of all, let's not mention that the Skyfall Object from the sky crashed into the Penthouse, turning it into a Sea of Fire. The Elevator of Parker Industries Building also cannot directly reach the Penthouse.
This is all specially designed to prevent anyone from breaking into the Confidential Area of the Building. To reach the Penthouse, you must transfer Elevators.
However, now that Elevator that can reach the Penthouse is definitely unusable. Peter can only hope that the Safety Stairs of the Building are still usable.
Opening the Security Door of the Elevator, a wave of Thick Smoke immediately rushed towards him. Fortunately, Peter had put on a Protective Mask beforehand, otherwise this mouthful of smoke could have taken his life.
Peter scanned the Indoor Environment through his Visor. Fortunately, the extent of the Flame's burning was not as terrible as he had expected. He just didn't know why the Fire Sprinkler of the Building hadn't activated, otherwise this Fire wouldn't have spread.
Peter roughly calculated that, based on the integrity of the Building, the Skyfall Object should not be very large itself.
It should be that the Thing just happened to land on some Flammable and Explosive Materials, which is why it caused the Fire. In that case, relying on the Battle Suit he developed for Cindy, and her own Physical Fitness, as long as Cindy doesn't get too close to the Explosives, she won't be too seriously injured.
Peter, feeling a little more Reassured, stepped into the Floor. He had just wanted to follow the route in his Memory to the Safety Stairs when he heard a Sound of Air Being Torn from behind him.
Before Peter could turn his Head, a Thing smashed into his Lower Back. Although this Thing had a heavy Force, its Texture was Soft, and hitting his Body didn't make him feel Pain.
The next second, Peter could feel that Thing burst open at his Lower Back. Immediately, a mass of white Substance instantly wrapped him up, leaving only his Head and one Hand holding Tools exposed.
His Legs being obstructed caused Peter to lose his Balance. His Body involuntarily fell forward, and finally slammed onto the Ground.
"Ouch!"
Peter cried out in Pain. He lowered his Head to look at the Thing binding him and was immediately Surprised, because Peter recognized this Thing binding him.
What bound Peter was precisely the web bullet he had developed, which was also one of the main Attack modes carried in the Web-shooter he developed to help Cindy. The Purpose was to trap enemies without harming them.
Peter really didn't expect that one day he would be bound by his own Invention.
Peter tried hard to raise his Head. With the help of the constantly flickering Flames, he saw a faint Black Shadow in the dim Elevator Shaft. This Shadow looked very familiar no matter how he looked at it.
"Cindy?" Peter asked tentatively. "Is that you, Cindy? Stop fooling around! Hurry up and untie me, we need to get out of here quickly, it might be even more Danger later!"
Peter's shouting, in addition to the Effect of Ask, also had the Effect of emboldening himself. After all, although the other party had a slender Figure and was leaning against the Wall in a very unscientific posture but wouldn't fall down, in this World full of all kinds of Superhuman, this could not be used as a basis.
For example, Spider-Woman, whom Cindy admired, had the same Superpower as Cindy.
Perhaps annoyed by Peter's noise, the Shadow hidden in the Elevator Shaft leaned forward until its entire Body left the Wall. In the end, it actually stood in the Air without relying on anything, Floating and flew out of the Elevator Shaft.
"Cin…dy?" Peter widened his Eyes. What appeared in his Presence was a familiar yet unfamiliar Figure.
It was familiar because the person who came was indeed Cindy. It was unfamiliar because the other party's clothing and Temperament were completely different from the little Girl in his impression.
At this time, Cindy was no longer wearing the close-fitting Battle Suit he had made for her, but a Viking Armor. Most of her Body was covered in an unknown Material that looked like Fabric. Her Arms and legs were covered by Armor made of a Material that revealed Metallic Luster but was Flexible.
In the very center of her Chest was a huge Spider Logo that kept emitting Crimson Light. The Scarlet Red Light, coupled with the surrounding Flames, allowed Peter to clearly see the several Scars on Cindy's Face.
That originally Cute Face was now destroyed by the hideous Scars.
"Your Face? What happened to your Face, Cindy?" Peter struggled, wriggling his Body like a Caterpillar. This represented his concern for Cindy.
"Hypocritical." Scarface Cindy coldly Interrupt Peter's movements. The latter showed a Surprised Expression, obviously not understanding what the former meant.
"What do you mean? What exactly happened to Cindy?"
Cindy didn't speak, but extended her Right Hand. Just as Peter didn't understand what she was doing, a piercing Sound of Air Being Torn came from behind him.
"Whoosh!"
By the time Peter came back to his senses, a huge Thing had stopped Directly Above him. When he saw clearly what it was, he was so frightened that he screamed.
Because he couldn't see the Full Appearance of that huge Thing, Peter didn't know what it was, but Peter could see clearly the Thing hanging on that huge Thing.
That was... Cindy? That's right, besides Cindy Floating outside the Elevator Door, there was another Cindy, but this Cindy was already dead. A Large Hole was opened in her Belly, and a Sharp Spike protruded from her Belly.
This Cindy looked like she had been dead for a long Time, because the Blood in her Belly had already solidified. Even when hovering above Peter, not a single drop of Blood flowed out.
Because the Situation happening before his Eyes was too shocking, Peter couldn't say anything except Scream.
"Want to know what happened?" Scarface Cindy said coldly.
"Okay, then I'll tell you. I was replaced by this Guy a week ago. In this week, she constantly Tortured me! Prying out Everything she wanted to know from my mouth!"
"I have been praying in my Heart. I hoped that my Brother could discover that his younger sister had been replaced. I hoped you could expose this imposter and then come to save me, but the Reality is the Scars on my Face that are increasing day by day!"
Speaking of this, Cindy's Emotion obviously became agitated. As soon as her Words fell, a Scarlet Red Combat Qi burst out from her Body at the same time, blowing Peter, who was lying on the Ground, away by several meters.
"Ugh!" Peter cried out in Pain, and finally broke free from Shock.
"Another you? How is this possible? How could this kind of Situation happen?"
A trace of imperceptible Despair flashed in Cindy's cold Eyes. She said coldly again.
"It seems that you have never noticed anything wrong. In that case..."
Before her Words finished, Cindy extended her Right Hand again. The Object hanging the Corpse of another Cindy immediately flew into her Hand. Peter finally got to see the Full Appearance of that Thing.
That was a huge Hammer, as tall as a Human, with one end Sharp and the other end flat.
