บท 558: conners ambition
Peter cautiously followed the trembling spider silk, moving like a giant spider. However, he overlooked one crucial point: the roles of prey and predator often shift depending on the circumstances.
Peter was smart, but he lacked experience. Soon, he realized that the lizard shaking the spider web was just a small one and not his intended target. This indicated that the real target had already detected his trick!
Noises came from all directions as these small lizards were interfering with Spider-Man's judgment. In a moment of distraction, a dark shadow lunged at him from behind!
The Lizard attacked with a fierce wind, its claws tearing into his head and face, leaving deep scars on Peter's chest. Fortunately, amidst the turbulent currents beneath the spider web, he managed to break free and fall into the water, narrowly escaping the Lizard's clutches.
His hunting attempt ended in complete failure, and he nearly lost his life. Worse yet, Peter left behind a camera with his name on it at the scene. He had intended to use the camera to capture proof that Dr. Connors was the Lizard. Peter's plan was well thought out, but it was contingent on his ability to subdue the Lizard. Now, he had failed to defeat the Lizard. Overconfidence had backfired on him.
Dr. Connors found the camera and naturally discovered Spider-Man's true identity. He crushed the camera, clearly not wanting this troublesome Spider-Man to bother him again!
Wanda shook her head and said, "You are just like Pietro... my brother, inexperienced and sometimes overly reckless. Just because you have superpowers doesn't make you invincible. That's an illusion!"
Peter shrugged. "My plan was generally correct, but Dr. Connors was too cunning. The biggest problem was that the police wouldn't listen to me. If they had trusted me, none of this would have happened."
"If you hadn't insisted on bringing a camera, you wouldn't have been discovered by the Lizard!" Wanda retorted.
Wanda turned to him,"You know, the Peter Parker I know wouldn't make such excuses."
Peter raised an eyebrow. "I am me, he is him. We may both be Spider-Man, but we are definitely not the same person!"
In his heart, he agreed with what Wanda said. In the video, he indeed made a big mistake, acting recklessly and underestimating his opponent. However, he was unwilling to admit his error. The rebellious Peter couldn't hold back. There are differences even among heroes.
In the video, after he escaped, he couldn't help but curse himself as an idiot. With scars on his chest, he didn't dare to go home, fearing he would scare Aunt May. Instead, he hid at his girlfriend's house. Gwen was shocked by his condition and quickly helped him treat his wounds.
He didn't hide his experience from Gwen. When Gwen learned that Peter was going to fight the Lizard, she couldn't help but feel very worried. She didn't want Spider-Man to be in danger. Since her father was a police officer, Gwen had always been afraid that one day her father would not come back after going out.
Now, the same worry fell upon her beloved boyfriend. Gwen tried to persuade Spider-Man, but Peter had his reasons for confronting the Lizard. He believed he had created this cold-blooded monster. Without that crucial formula from him, Dr. Connors wouldn't have been able to develop the Lizard DNA serum, and thus wouldn't have turned into the Lizard.
Moreover, under Uncle Ben's guidance, Peter Parker knew from the moment he became Spider-Man that fighting crime and these villains was not optional, but his responsibility and duty!
Regardless, the battered Spider-Man received care from his girlfriend and was able to go to school full of energy the next day, but a crisis was approaching.
Dr. Connors knew Spider-Man's true identity and was determined to eliminate this boy he once greatly admired because Peter stood in his way!
Before injecting the lizard serum, Dr. Connors was undoubtedly a good person. He used himself as a test subject to save more innocent people. Of course, he had his own selfish motives, to protect his research results.
But no matter what, Dr. Connors initially had a noble determination to sacrifice himself for the greater good. He should have had a bright future, but after injecting the lizard serum, everything changed drastically. It is unclear whether the lizard serum itself has the ability to induce corruption or if it simply amplified the darkness and paranoia in Dr. Connors's heart.
In any case, his mindset underwent a drastic change. Dr. Connors believed that lizards were a higher form of life, not devolved but evolved. As a pioneer of this level of evolution, Dr. Connors also believed it was his duty to bring this glorious evolution to everyone and bless the entire human society!
Yes, Dr. Connors was about to do something big. He was trying to "evolve" all humans into lizard, starting with New York City. To achieve this crazy goal, he had to get rid of that pesky spider first.
So, Dr. Connors injected himself with a larger dose of the serum and sneaked through the underground pipes to Peter's school.
Unlike Spider-Man, who would hesitate, he broke into the school in broad daylight, causing immediate panic among the students. Peter was very upset when he saw lizardman. He didn't even have time to change into his Spider-Man suit before being spotted by the creature, who then smashed his head through a wall and into a classroom.
The powerful Lizard had the upper hand in close combat, and Peter clearly needed his Spider-Man suit to improve his combat effectiveness. Fortunately, he carried his web-shooters with him and seized the opportunity to escape from the Lizard. During this process, the Lizard tried to persuade him to give up the fight.
But Peter could hear the contradictions in Dr. Connors's words; he was obviously mentally unstable. Verbal confrontation was pointless, and in the end, it had to come down to a fight.
The two fought fiercely in the school, and it was clear that in a head-to-head confrontation, Spider-Man was no match for the Lizardman.
