Bab 59: Restart, Spider-Man! [59]
"Did you hear? Spider-Man is dead, killed by Lord Bucky."
"Don't talk nonsense. It was the boss who dealt with Spider-Man personally."
"Really? Have you ever seen the boss?"
"No, he's very mysterious. They say he's someone important inside S.H.I.E.L.D."
"Hail Hydra! Spider-Man deserved to die. He killed a lot of our super soldiers."
"By the way, what are we transporting?"
"Spider-Man's hand."
"What? How come I didn't know about this?"
"Of course you didn't. You were off taking a leak."
"Alright... but I heard Spider-Man is immortal. Are we sure his hand is safe here?"
"Heh, his body has been cut into dozens of pieces. What could go wrong?"
"I think it's dangerous."
"What?"
"I said I think it's dangerous."
The man's face went stiff, pointing at the shaking alloy box. Fear quickly spread across his features.
"Eric... Look at it. Isn't that dangerous?"
"I-I think you're right."
Sweat began to trickle down their foreheads, and their legs started to weaken.
Suddenly, the alloy box trembled violently.
Bang!
Bang bang bang!
A series of loud bangs echoed as dense fist-shaped dents appeared on the surface of the box, causing the two men to collapse in terror.
"Aah!! Someone, help!!"
"Mom, what am I seeing…"
With ear-piercing screams, a severed arm burst through the box like a rocket, flying past their faces, creating a gust of wind before crashing through the wall.
Bang bang bang!
The severed arm continued smashing through walls and ceilings, finally shooting off into the night sky.
Simultaneously, disturbances erupted at Hydra research bases in Siberia, Bard Castle in Italy, the Afghan desert, the outskirts of London, and even within S.H.I.E.L.D. itself.
"Oh my god, what is that?"
"Something strange just came out of the ground!"
"It's... a flying leg!?"
"Oh my God, is this the legendary Flying Foot?"
"Stop it!"
"No, we can't."
"Notify the commander immediately!"
In the neon-lit streets, a red sports car idled at a traffic light. While waiting, Harry checked over his contract once more.
With Stark Industries' funding, Osborn Corporation would surely be revived. His father would be proud of him.
Beep beep~
His phone rang, and Harry glanced at the caller ID.
"This is Harry Osborn. What's going on?"
"Harry, we've got a mission. Something strange has appeared."
"Something strange?"
"Yes, it's—"
Before the person could finish, a scream rang out from the street. Something strange zipped past the roof of Harry's car, the gust lifting the skirts of several girls in its wake, leaving behind a scene of chaos.
"I saw it. Definitely strange."
"What was it?"
"A hand."
"A hand?"
Harry frowned. "But I saw a giant foot."
"What?"
On the other end of the call, Nick Fury hung up, realizing something was off.
"Natasha, where did that thing come from?"
"From underground, in a building with a hidden lab."
"What? Why didn't I know about this?"
Nick Fury's face darkened. "Where's Steve? Get him back here."
"We can't reach him."
"Damn it, where did he go at a time like this?"
Hydra's Base One
Boom!
With loud crashing sounds, Spider-Man's severed body parts started flying from all corners of the world.
An arm, a torso, internal organs, legs, and even a middle finger—all of them violently burst into the chaotic base, smashing through walls, obliterating everything in their path, and ultimately coming together to form a human body.
Splash!
As nutrient fluid spilled onto the ground, the red and blue nanometal covered the lean frame, creating an eerie atmosphere.
The body, however, had no head.
A brain floated above the neck, emitting an eerie glow.
"Damn it, how did it happen this fast?"
Steve had no time to consider the situation. He ran to the corner and pulled a lever, lowering an indestructible alloy cage over the headless body.
List, on the other hand, stared at the scene in ecstasy, laughing maniacally.
"Hahaha! Oh my God, what a miracle! It's a miracle!"
"Shut up!" Steve shouted, grabbing List by the collar. "Where's the rest of his head?"
"It's been dissected—"
Before List could finish, fragments of Spider-Man's head zipped past Steve, ignoring the alloy cage. They rushed into the cage and enveloped the floating brain.
"I've come to form the head!" Xia Luo's voice echoed through the lab.
"How is this possible?!"
Steve was dumbfounded.
Spider-Man's body parts had been stored in facilities all over the world. There was no way they could have gathered so quickly.
It was practically the speed of light.
Steve had expected Spider-Man's revival to be shocking, but he hadn't anticipated it would defy the laws of physics to this extent.
No wonder Natasha and Banner had struggled to describe Spider-Man's revival.
Even with all the precautions Steve had taken, he couldn't stop Spider-Man's resurrection.
So...
Was Spider-Man's revival inevitable no matter what?
The thought flashed through Steve's mind.
How could something so ridiculous be possible?!
And then, something even more outrageous happened.
Inside the alloy cage, Xia Luo slowly opened his eyes.
He glanced coldly at the shocked Steve, then turned his attention to the reward screen in front of him.
[Congratulations on winning the revival game. You have used 1 revival token.]
[Reward: Titan Physique (Beginner)]
[Congratulations on actively triggering the Spider Totem. You have earned extra rewards.]
[Bonus 1: Spider Totem Power x1]
[Bonus 2: Mental Resistance +50%]
[Remaining restarts: 6 (accumulated for the next revival game)]
Immediately, Xia Luo's body began to change once again.
Tiny particles of purple light emerged from the void, seeping through the nanometal suit into his body.
Crack crack crack
His bones creaked, and a tremendous power surged into his previously lean frame. His bone and muscle density skyrocketed, and even his skin began to undergo subtle transformations.
A cool energy, red and blue, briefly flowed into the center of his forehead before vanishing from his awareness.
At that moment, Xia Luo could feel his body undergoing a fundamental transformation from the inside out.
Though it was just the beginner level of the Titan Physique, the boost to his attributes was significant.
Combined with his innate Spider-Man physiology, these changes were enough to push his life force into a new realm.
"Damn, his body—"
Sensing something was wrong, Steve quickly activated the high-voltage electric field of the alloy cage.
Buzz!
Blue electricity surged, snaking across Xia Luo's body like countless electric serpents.
Under the onslaught of this near-thunderous voltage, the nanometal suit began to peel away, and the destructive force permeated the cage, intent on wiping out everything.
"Damn you, Spider-Man! Die already! I won't give you another chance to resurrect!"
Seeing Xia Luo tremble under the electric shock but remain silent, Steve let out a manic laugh.
It was both a declaration of victory and a cover for his growing anxiety.
But then, the spider emblem on Xia Luo's chest began to glow, his exposed skin turning a faint shade of purple. His muscles bulged, his frame growing taller.
With his magical defenses skyrocketing, the Titan physique fully fused with his Spider-Man abilities.
"Heh, the voltage is too weak."
Amid the crackling electricity, Xia Luo's body stopped trembling.
Before Steve's disbelieving eyes, Xia Luo's massive purple fist effortlessly shattered the alloy cage. The purple beast was ready to crush everything.
"No!!!"
