Chapter 101

After more than an hour, when the battle suits of the three individuals were all upgraded, it was Tobey Spider who finished first.

Tobey Spider, in his middle age, had never encountered such high-tech battle suits before, so his suit was the first to be completed.

Of course, it also had fewer additional features.

Tobey Spider didn't mind.

In his words, the battle suit had always just been an accessory for him.

Spider-Man comes first; then, the Spider Battle Suit follows. It's not because of the Spider Battle Suit that he is Spider-Man; rather, the suit exists because of Spider-Man.

His words left Mark and Spider-Tom deeply impressed.

Entering middle age, Tobey Spider must have experienced many trials and tribulations; he resembled a wise old man.

However, even after obtaining the new battle suit, Tobey Spider was still as happy as a child and went straight to test his suit.

Delightful!

Next was Mark's battle suit.

The upgrade took about twenty minutes.

His suit also consisted of nanometal particles, but the nanometal particles he used were different from those used by Spider-Tom.

Mark initially had some doubts.

So, Spider-Tom explained to him.

The so-called nanometal particles only represented a particle specification.

But, in reality, nanometal was still metal, with many different metal materials, mainly reflected in the nanomolecular formula.

The nanometal commonly used by Iron Man was a gold-titanium alloy, composed of 99% gold and 1% titanium, with an extremely high melting point and hardness, commonly used in spacecraft.

The nanometal given to him by the female Doctor Octopus was also a type of titanium alloy, but it belonged to a synthetic titanium alloy, slightly different from the gold-titanium alloy.

Additionally, Spider-Tom informed him that his suit's materials weren't entirely a gold-titanium alloy because it was too hard. A full alloy covering would easily affect the "Peter's wit" effect (comic book setting, this is true, so most Spider-Men don't wear full metal suits).

His usual suit used a composite material specially designed by Iron Man for him: "nanocomposite + nanogold-titanium alloy." Only the four spider legs on the back were made of pure gold-titanium alloy.

Although this meant the protective performance of the suit was somewhat lower than a full gold-titanium alloy, it was light, breathable, and more suitable for him.

After listening to Spider-Tom's lengthy explanation, Mark couldn't help but feel irritated.

He felt that Spider-Tom wasn't explaining the difference in their suit materials but rather flaunting that he had a "great dad."

Listen, what does "specially designed composite material" mean?

It not only considers the adaptation of his abilities but also ensures his safety. It's the treatment of a true son.

Mark thought about his journey so far – the original nanomaterials were obtained through some tricks. He hardly planned to return to that world with the female Octopus unless he had free time someday.

The auxiliary artificial intelligence on the suit was acquired through deception – exploiting the knowledge gap, he managed to persuade Dr. Octopus to provide it.

The webbing was earned – training Andrew Spider, assisting him in defeating some villains, rescuing Gwen, all led to acquiring the formula for the webbing, creating his own unique version.

And now, Spider-Tom... is this the advantage of acknowledging a great dad? Well, he admired it.

Mark decided to exploit this advantage.

So, he chose to redesign his suit – using the nanocomposite titanium alloy material provided by the female Octopus as a base, combined with the nanocomposite fiber + nanogold-titanium alloy composite material provided by Spider-Tom.

Because it was just a reworking, and with the high-tech 3D printer working efficiently, after inputting the suit blueprints, Mark quickly obtained his brand new suit.

The new suit is divided into two layers and primarily comes in three colors.

The base color is a reddish-gold, mainly using the nanocomposite material provided by Spider-Tom, somewhat resembling Iron Man's armor;

The shoulders, outer arms, etc., are a deep blue approaching black, primarily using the nanocomposite titanium alloy material from the female Octopus;

He also added a hood to the suit's head, similar to Spider-Gwen's.

This design serves two purposes – firstly, it can protect against potential head injuries. With the assistance of the suit's AI, the hood's front can extend into a face mask, creating a double-layer protection.

However, extending the face mask significantly weakens the Spider-Sense. Therefore, it is only used when necessary.

Secondly, to deal with enemies skilled in illusionary techniques, a device to prevent mental intrusion was added to the hood.

Inspired by Mark, Spider-Tom added this device to his suit. After adjusting his suit, his head slightly bulged on both sides, resembling a macabre head if you look closely—kind of melon-like.

Of course, don't mention this to him.

Mark, after putting on his new suit, was very satisfied with it. He felt like he had joined the ranks of high-tech Spiders.

After a while, when Spider-Tom also adjusted his suit, Middle-aged Toby Spider and Max returned to the scene.

Doctor Strange also returned. He had perfected his spell in the Machinus De Kadavus.

Their top priority in this battle was to rescue Aunt May, who had been kidnapped. Once Aunt May was saved, they could inform MJ and Ned, who were holding down the fort, to press the button on the box, sending everyone back.

If they couldn't find Aunt May immediately, they would have to engage in battle.

To prepare for this, Doctor Strange added several magical prisons during this time, and each person, including Mark, was equipped with a teleportation wristguard.

If they could be dealt with directly, they would use the teleportation wristguard to send them to the magical prison.

If not, they would inform Doctor Strange, who would open a portal and pull the opponent into the Mirror Dimension for combat.

With this, all the preparatory work was basically completed.

At this moment, there was new information from Ned's side.

Not long ago, the New York police received a tip and found a recently deceased, headless body in an abandoned warehouse in the city.

This headless corpse bore a striking resemblance to the Green Goblin who attacked the military base in the suburbs during the day. He was wearing a similar suit of armor.

From the scene, it seemed that the Green Goblin's entire body bones were shattered before his head was explosively smashed by some immense force.

Seeing this news, Mark and others fell into silence.

They quickly connected this incident with the severely injured adult Andrew Spider.

Because the injuries on the adult Andrew Spider's body and the injuries on the Green Goblin's corpse were remarkably consistent!

"What kind of person did this? Is he a member of the Sinister Six, or someone opposing the Sinister Six?" Mark was puzzled.

That Green Goblin should be the Toby Spider version of the first-generation Green Goblin. Whether in that world or in this one, theoretically, his archenemy should only be Spider-Man.

"Regardless of who he is, since we're ready, let's set out directly!" Spider-Tom clenched his fist.

For these few hours, he had been suppressing his worry about Aunt May. At this moment, his heart was filled with anger, unable to hold back any longer, eager to resolve the battle quickly and rescue Aunt May.

"Alright, let's go!" Mark's gaze swept over everyone, nodding in agreement.

The group split up according to the planned strategy.

Mark and Max formed one group, Middle-aged Toby Spider and Spider-Tom formed another, and Doctor Strange acted alone.

The three groups separated at the entrance of the Sanctum, heading towards three different directions in the city.

"How do we find them?" Max, all limbs in an ionized state, flew steadily beside Mark, asking.

After obtaining the Ark Reactor, Max's endurance had significantly increased. Also, due to the power output of the Ark Reactor, the electrical power he controlled was now greater, appearing in a golden hue.

Mark frowned, continuously releasing his quantum waves outward.

With the coordination of quantum waves, his Spider-Sense could actively expand from the original hundreds of meters to directly over a kilometer.

However, even with this enhancement, compared to the vast urban area, it was just a drop in the bucket.

The search progress was quite slow.

Mark inquired about the progress on Spider-Tom and Middle-aged Toby Spider's end, only to find a similar situation.

Not a single super villain in sight, not even a petty thief.

"This is very un-American. What's going on? Are these guys really so honorable, not setting any traps, just waiting for us to walk in?" Mark keenly sensed something fishy.

This wasn't some martial arts competition with a code of chivalry. Both sides, one representing justice and the other evil, had long divided their territories. It was absurd for the self-proclaimed evildoers to make no preparations whatsoever.

"Hey, Spider-Man! Are you looking for us?"

As Mark swung past a tall building, a voice suddenly echoed from within.

He immediately halted, pressed his body against the adjacent wall, and looked towards the source.

A seemingly ordinary office worker in a suit stood by the window, waving at him.

"Weird. Is this Spider-Man's enthusiastic fan?" Mark sighed in relief after quickly comparing the image with various supervillains in his mind and finding no resemblance.

"Seems like it. Spider-Man's popularity is really something." Max landed not far from Mark, expressing envy.

Mark chuckled, "Maybe you'll have that too. Who knows, there might be action figures of you in the future. Besides, the Spider-Man they mentioned is probably referring to little Peter, not me."

—Because Spider-Tom was the youngest in the team, several years younger than the other combatants in this makeshift group, hence everyone referred to him as Little Peter.

Max, looking forward to such scenes, said with a hint of excitement, "Let's go quickly and deal with the bad guys. I really want to see that scene soon!"

"Haha, let's go then," Mark said, waving at the supposed Spider-Man fan, ready to continue their mission.

However, at that moment...

Buzz!

Spider-Sense triggered!

Mark leaped aside as a bullet hit the spot where he had just been standing.

Turning around, he found the "Spider-Man fan" holding a small handgun, sneering at him.
