"This is not polite!" Peter shouted, four mechanical Spider arms popped out, four Silk swept away their guns, and then pulled back suddenly.

"It's Spider-Man! Run!" a soldier shouted.

"We haven't gotten anything yet!" the man in yellow protective clothing shouted back.

"I don't care!"

They wanted to escape, but Peter was faster, catching them all in one fell swoop and forming a group. He approached and lowered his voice:

"You know who I am. You also know what I can do. How easy it is to tear you apart." A mechanical Spider arm pressed against the throat of one of them, "Said."

"I, we are--"

Before he finished speaking, his head suddenly exploded in front of Peter.

The warm blood mist hit his faceplate, and Peter froze for a moment. He didn't expect that the other party would silence him so simply.

He jumped back suddenly and raised his arms to block the incoming blood mist. "What the hell?!"

"I'd rather die than say anything!" someone shouted from behind the rubble, and a grenade was thrown towards him. Peter kicked him away, and the explosion raised smoke, but he watched the man raise his gun and shoot at his companions.

"No!" Peter used Silk to pull the gun, and the bioelectricity knocked the person unconscious.

All the people who were tied up were dead. Only the shooter was still alive. Peter searched his whole body and found no identification, only a skull tattoo.

There wasn't much information, but the pattern reminded him of Captain America's old enemy - Hydra. They finally crawled out of the shadows. With so much technology in front of them, how could they not be tempted.

He looked around the ruins, sighed, and called Fury to explain the situation. The other party would be there soon.

The city needs time to recover. The first phase is over and the second phase will begin soon.

He just hoped that he was ready.

A few weeks after Battle of New York, Spider-Man finally received the positive press he deserved.

Ever since he appeared in public as a member of Avengers, people no longer take Jonah Jameson's rhetoric seriously.

Just yesterday, the official account of Daily Bugle posted on Twitter:

"Spider-Man's actions in the city are completely illegal vigilante behavior!"

Peter originally planned to respond in person, but before he could take action, another netizen took the lead:

"I was held at gunpoint at nine o'clock tonight, and it was Spider-Man who saved me. I was able to go home alive to see my family tonight. Fuck you, Daily Bugle!"

And he is not the only one. Whenever someone tries to discredit Spider-Man on the Internet, there will always be hundreds or thousands of people who will stand up and refute. They come like a tsunami. The most important thing is that these are not trolls, but real ordinary people, honest citizens who have been helped by Spider-Man in their lives.

He feels like he is floating in the clouds and his life is perfect. He is a superhero who is truly respected by the public, and people have even established a fan support club for him! When Baxter Building is working, Susan and Reed always seek his advice. Although many times he cannot help, he always does his best.

At home, Uncle Ben and Aunt May were happy that he finally stepped out of his own little world and began to integrate into real life. What they didn't know was that Peter was secretly paying off all overdue bills for them. He just asked the bank to notify them of a "system filing error" and then used his own salary to make up the money.

The summer vacation allowed him to be a hero full-time. He descended from the sky countless times to save the world.

He has basically become New York's exclusive hero. After all, Tony·Stark is out of town half the time, and Captain America is more like a national symbol, Thor is a god, Natasha and Clint are agents. This means that he is the only one who can bring public exposure to Avengers. The pressure is not small.

But it's not just about swinging and playing games, Peter also spends a lot of time on Baxter Building. Reed and Susan are very busy. Reed is responsible for inventing new toys, and Susan is responsible for applying for patents and ensuring capital flow.

The only thing that makes Peter a little embarrassed is the relationship between Reed and Su. To be precise, there is no "that" relationship between them at all. Reed tried in his own way, but Su always pretended not to see it. After a while, poor Reed finally gave up. Peter doesn't know when the enemies will be able to become friends, but at this rate, he may have to wait until little Franklin·Richards is born.

But that's okay, Peter's scalp goes numb when he thinks of a child who can easily distort reality.

Peter began to advance his personal project and study alien junk seized from alien invaders.

From those weapons, he found a way to operate machinery through Mind Stone induction. This design is extremely ingenious: there is a metal plate made of an unknown alloy, which swallows the bioelectricity in the brain waves like Symbiote. It guides the person's brain waves, and through the sensor on the other end, any machine can track the "eaten" signal.

Peter applied this technology to his mechanical Spider arms, making them much safer to use, with no risk of exploding, driving him crazy, or merging with his spine.

Su's eyes lit up when she saw the telekinetic metal plate. She guessed the source at a glance, but what really surprised her was that Peter had cracked the principle so quickly. She had already begun to apply for a patent, and the name was "Psychokinetic Metal Plate".

Peter also analyzed the alloy used in the alien armor. It was a unique formula that cannot be found on Earth. Although he failed to successfully synthesize his own version, he at least figured out the ingredients and reaction mechanism. He now has a basic metallurgical formula in hand, which can theoretically create a metal that is as strong as Wolverine's claws - as long as he can find the last missing ingredient.

Then he focused on the alien energy source.

It is a luminous purple stone with strong radiation. But the strange thing is that the shell outside it can actually perfectly isolate the radiation, so that this thing will not kill all living creatures around it.

Only external radiation can trigger it and cause it to explode. Peter, with the help of Reed, successfully reverse-engineered the process for making such a battery, but the results were a bit discouraging - the stone they created only had a quarter of the energy output of a real alien battery.

Reed is not disappointed at all, but is very excited. He said that he will continue to study this technology, which may very well determine whether mankind will survive or enter a new era in the future. As for how aliens levitate, Peter has no idea for the time being and can only throw this pile of things aside.

On the other side, Natasha's training has not relaxed at all. Ever since Fury gave the order to improve Peter's fighting ability, her classes have become a daily compulsory item.

One training even lasted a whole day - Natasha insisted on testing how long he could last without eating or sleeping. As a result, Peter's endurance made her show a rare look of approval.

Recently, Natasha finally began to teach him real spy skills: how to track a target without being noticed, and how to dig out the secrets he most wanted to hide from a person. Peter didn't like it at all. But there was no way, he had to be prepared for all possibilities.

A few weeks passed, and the city gradually returned to order. Peter found that the time he had to transform into Spider-Man was decreasing, and people finally learned to deal with troubles by themselves. So, he decided to start a new personal project. Since there is a DeLorean DMC-12 parked in the garage, the best way to use it is to drive it. But before that, it must be completely upgraded.

He called Johnny: "Johnny, I need you to help me modify a car."
