Wanda noticed that Peter in front of her seemed a bit too confident. She kindly advised him that confidence is good, but arrogance can lead to failure. She explained that if he answered the question according to his idea and got it wrong, he would lose points. Peter wasn't unwilling to listen; he touched his earlobe and shrugged: "Alright, Miss Wanda, I forgot you're an experienced player. I'll take your advice more seriously."
After answering the question, the video on the light screen continued to play. Lizardman had already begun his mad plan, turning several pursuing police officers into Lizardman while heading to the Oscorp building to steal a device that could amplify the serum's effect. If he succeeded, the entire New York City would turn into Jurassic Park.
The Lizardman was immensely strong, could regenerate, and was cunning and deceitful. Ordinary police officers were no match for him. Everyone knew that only Spider-Man could contend with him. However, Spider-Man was being obstructed by the police, who had deployed helicopters for close-range aerial shooting. Spider-Man was hit, and after being struck by a special electric shock bomb, he fell from the sky.
The police swarmed in and subdued Spider-Man. George personally stepped forward, removed Spider-Man's mask, wanting to see what he looked like.
Just then, Spider-Man suddenly acted, first knocking down George in front of him, then quickly dealing with the surrounding officers. However, his future father-in-law also quickly got up, drew his gun, and aimed at Spider-Man. Spider-Man raised his hands and slowly turned his head. This time, George finally saw his stubborn face: "Peter Parker?!"
He was clearly shocked that Spider-Man was his daughter's boyfriend. Peter didn't have time for formalities and quickly explained the situation. He needed to get there to save people!
As he spoke, he picked up his mask from the ground and put it back on. George was convinced and watched Spider-Man leave, instructing the surrounding officers not to shoot. However, someone shot early, hitting Spider-Man in the leg. Time was running out. Peter didn't bother checking his injury and quickly swung his web towards the Oscorp building.
Meanwhile, the Lizardman had successfully infiltrated the Oscorp building. Spider-Man had drawn the main police force, which helped him a lot. At this moment, he climbed the walls and broke into the lab through a window.
Earlier, Gwen had already evacuated the staff, so she was the only one left in the lab, waiting for the serum production to complete. She knew her situation was dangerous!
Gwen, being smart, first activated the lab's fire suppression system, urgently closed the lab door, then hid with the enhancement device.
However, the sturdy steel door was like paper to the Lizardman's claws, and he tore it open in a few swipes. The lab was pitch dark, and Gwen hid in a corner, anxious, watching through a crack as the Lizardman passed by. She didn't even dare to breathe, fortunately, the Lizardman didn't notice her.
As long as she could delay, Gwen believed her boyfriend and father would come to rescue her. But the question was, could she hold out until then?
The Lizardman didn't find his target immediately, but he had his own methods. Squinting and using his sense of smell, he quickly pinpointed Gwen's location. When he appeared before her, she was startled. She grabbed a small flamethrower and shot flames at the Lizardman's head.
The Lizardman merely raised a hand to block the flames, then took the enhancement device without harming Gwen. This showed that even though Dr. Connors had become cold-blooded and aggressive as the Lizardman, he hadn't entirely lost his conscience.
From his perspective, Dr. Connors was obsessed, believing that turning everyone into lizards was a grand and benevolent deed. Compared to the strong, regenerative Lizardman, the ordinary human gene indeed seemed inferior, so Dr. Connors was convinced he was doing good.
He got what he wanted, while Spider-Man encountered difficulties. It wasn't just the police entanglement but also the previous fight that had drained a lot of his strength. He had been beaten by the Lizardman, shot, and he didn't have the Lizardman's abnormal regenerative ability. He was barely holding on.
Especially with the gunshot wound on his leg, bleeding profusely, it severely hindered his movement. Although he was close to the Oscorp building, he limped along, unsure if he could make it before the Lizardman spread the serum.
It's worth noting that New York City's news media were also reporting on the Spider-Man and Lizardman incident in real time. The police were doing their utmost to evacuate the people around Oscorp, but Spider-Man was moving against the flow. People picked up on this from the news reports and saw his determined figure limping along, still persisting.
The audience outside the light screen had a strange feeling as they watched the live video of people watching the broadcast...
However, this wasn't the first time such a thing had happened. People were more concerned about whether Spider-Man could stop all of this.
Although the ending had been spoiled in a previous question, it was clear that most of the audience was deeply immersed, experiencing the trials and tribulations faced by Spider-Man, and feeling a bit anxious.
In the light screen video, Peter swung between tall buildings on his web. As he landed, he slipped, maybe from exhaustion, and fell heavily, looking even more battered. But even so, this stubborn young man refused to give up. Limping, he climbed to the rooftop, where he saw a crane arm extending from a nearby building, providing him a shortcut. It turned out that at a nearby construction site, workers who had been helped by Spider-Man in the past, upon learning of his plight from the TV news, were willing to do their utmost to help more people.
The New Yorkers watching this scene were very proud, thinking, "Look, we New Yorkers are so kind-hearted. And then look at Gotham, it's just a bunch of irredeemable scums!"
However, in reality, New York's crime rate had recently surged, surpassing Gotham City...
